2016-09-01beam_lib: Correct type for the abstract code chunkBjörn Gustavsson
The abstract_code chunk can also contain {eof,_}, {error,_}, and {warning,_} in addition to the abstract forms that make up the Erlang syntax proper.

2016-02-19stdlib: Let beam_lib restore typed record formsHans Bolinder
Forms with record field types created before OTP 19.0 are replaced by well-formed record forms holding the type information. Tools reading the 'abstract_code' chunk can rely on the returned forms being well-formed, that is, there are no badly formed 'type' attribute forms.

2016-01-29Eliminate redundant double is_function testBjörn Gustavsson
When tuple funs were still supported, the idiom for allowing real funs with a certain arity but not tuple funs was: is_function(Fun) andalso is_function(Fun, Arity) The reason that both tests were needed is because: is_function({M,F}) would return 'false' is_function({M,F}, Arity) would return 'true' In 53ec991d19, is_function/2 was updated to only return 'false' for tuples, so the call to is_function/1 can be removed.
2016-01-29Check for already started beam_lib crypto serverLuis Rascao
When starting the beam_lib crypto server, don't crash when it is already running. Some other process might have already called it.

2015-10-22beam_lib: Document all_chunks/1 and build_module/1Björn Gustavsson
beam_lib:all_chunks/1 and beam_lib:build_module/1 can be useful for special-purpose stripping, for example to remove the "Line" chunk.

Record field types have been modified due to commit 8ce35b2: "Take out automatic insertion of 'undefined' from typed record fields".

2013-05-20beam_lib, compile: Replace use of deprecated crypto functionsBjörn Gustavsson
Since both the STDLIB and compiler applications turn warnings into errors, we must stop using the old deprecated crypto functions. While we are at it, generalize the format of the key tuple returned by beam_lib:make_crypto_key/2 to facilitate introducing new crypto methods in the future. Change the format to: {Type,Key,IV,BlockSize} where Type, Key, and IV are the first three arguments for either crypto:block_encrypt4/ or crypto:block_decrypt/4, and BlockSize is the block size for the crypto algorithm (it is needed to properly pad the plaintext blocks before encryption).

2011-09-27beam_lib: Handle rare race in the crypto key server functionalityBjörn Gustavsson
In rare circumstances, there can be a race when the crypto key server is started by beam_lib:crypto_key_fun/1 shortly after stopping it using beam_lib:clear_crypto_key_fun/0. The race occurs because the crypto key server first sends back the reply to the calling process, then terminates. (The race is probably more likely to happen on CPUs with hyper threading.)

* bg/beam_lib: Remove redundant includes Make beam_lib:cmp/2 stricter OTP-8625 bg/beam_lib The beam_lib:cmp/2 function now compares BEAM files in stricter way. The BEAM files will be considered different if there are any changes except in the compilation information ("CInf") chunk. beam_lib:cmp/2 used to ignore differences in the debug information (significant for Dialyzer) and other chunks that did not directly change the run-time behavior.
2010-05-06Remove redundant includesBjörn Gustavsson
2010-05-06Make beam_lib:cmp/2 stricterBjörn Gustavsson
The beam_lib:cmp/2 function only compares the executable parts of the BEAM files, not attributes or abstract code. Since the types and specs (used by Dialyzer) are contained in the abstract code, beam_lib:cmp/2 will return 'ok' if the only difference between two BEAM file are in the types or specs. If an Erlang/OTP system is installed in a revision control system, and beam_lib:cmp/2 is used to avoid committing unchanged but newly compiled BEAM files, BEAM files with no other changes than in types or specs may not get updated, which can problems if Dialyzer or the debugger is run. To avoid that problem, change beam_lib:cmp/2 to compare all chunks *except* for the "CInf" chunk. The "CInf" chunk contains the compilation time, compiler options, and compiler version.
