2013-07-21Update filelib.erl typespecsJosé Valim
Most functions in filelib support binaries as arguments but that was not reflected in the typespecs. The types filename_all() and dirname_all() were introduced to mimic file:name_all().
2013-07-21Update io:prompt() typeJosé Valim
Functions that expect an io:prompt() also accept binaries and iolists as arguments. Therefore its type has been updated to reflect the same types accepted by other io functions.

2013-05-28Improve erl_lint performanceJosé Valim
The default_types() in erl_lint returned a dictionary with all default types. However, calculating this dict was expensive and we actually didn't use the default values in this dictionary. This patch replaces the dictionary use for one function that checks if the type is a default type or not, and remove the bits that checked explicitly for those default types when iterating the dictionary.

2013-05-28Fix receive support in erl_eval with a BEAM moduleAnthony Ramine
Using the low-level BEAM instructions, we can loop over each message in the process queue and removes the first message that matches, without receiving them all to later send them back to itself. The function prim_eval:'receive'/2 is equivalent to the following pseudo-code: 'receive'(F, T) -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, LOOP: case PEEK CURRENT MESSAGE WITH TIMEOUT T of {ok,Msg} -> case F(Msg) of nomatch -> DECREMENT TIMEOUT T, ADVANCE MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, GOTO LOOP; Result -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, Result end; timeout -> RESET MESSAGE QUEUE POINTER, timeout end. To not break Dialyzer and other tools, we use a stub Erlang module which abstract code is forcefully inserted into prim_inet.erl afterwards compilation.
2013-05-22Teach c:ls/1 to show non-directory filesBjörn Gustavsson
In an email to erlang-questions, Bengt Kleberg wrote: When I use c:ls/1 it reminds me so much of Unix "ls" that I expect c:ls("filename") to work. The resulting error surprises me every time (not the same day). While teaching c:ls/1 to show non-directory files, update the error handling to make use of the POSIX error codes from file:list_dir/1 and file:format_error/1 (which had not been invented when the c module was first implemented).

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).

2013-04-19fix excessive CPU consumption of timer_serverAliaksey Kandratsenka
I've found stdlib's timer to burn CPU without good reason. Here's what happens. The problem is that it sleeps in milliseconds but computes time in microseconds. And there is bug in code to compute milliseconds to sleep. It computes microseconds difference between now and nearest timer event and then does _truncating_ division by 1000. So on average it sleeps 500 microseconds _less than needed_. On wakeup its checks do I have timer tick that already occurred? No. Ok how much I need to sleep ? It does that bad computation again and gets 0 milliseconds. So next gen_server timeout happens right away only to find we're still before closest timer tick and to decide to sleep 0 milliseconds again. And again and again. This commit changes division to pick ceiling of ratio rather than floor. So that we always sleep not less then difference between now and closest event time.

2013-04-04Fix rest_for_one and one_for_all restarting a child not terminatedJames Fish
In rest_for_one and one_for_all supervisors one child dying can cause multiple children to be restarted. Previously if the child that caused the restart is started successfully but another child fails to start, the supervisor would not terminate this child with the other successfully restarted children as no record of the pid was kept. Thus the supervisor would try to start this child again. This could lead to multiples of the same child or if the child is registered cause repeated attempts at starting this child - until the max restart threshold was reached. Now the child that failed to start becomes the restarting child, instead of staying with the same child, for the next restart attempt. This has the following side effects: 1) In one_for_all the new version of the child that original died is terminated before a restart attempt is made. 2) In rest_for_one all succesfully restarted children are not terminated and restarting continues from the child that failed to start.
2013-04-02add sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3Steve Vinoski
At Erlang Factory 2013 there was discussion during one of the talks about the sys:get_status functions and how useful they were for debugging. Geoff Cant mentioned it would be very useful if the sys module also provided functions to use while debugging to get just the state of a process and also to be able to replace the state of a process, and many others in the audience appeared to agree. The sys:get_state/1,2 functions return the state of a gen_server, gen_fsm, or gen_event process. The return value varies depending on the process type: process state for a gen_server, state name and state data for a gen_fsm, and handler module, handler id, and handler state for each handler registered in a gen_event process. The sys:replace_state/2,3 functions allow the state of a gen_server, gen_fsm, or gen_event process to be replaced with a new state. These functions take a function argument that updates or replaces the process state; using a function to change the state eliminates the race condition of first reading the state via sys:get_state/1 or sys:get_state/2, using its return value to create a new state, and then replacing the old state with the new state, since during that time the process might have received other calls or messages that could have changed its state. * For a gen_server process, the state replacement function takes the process state as an argument and returns a new state. * For a gen_fsm process, the state replacement function gets a tuple of {StateName, StateData} and returns a similar tuple that specifies a new state name, new state data, or both. * For a gen_event process, the state replacement function is called for each registered event handler. It gets a tuple {Module, Id, HandlerState} and returns a similar tuple that specifies the same Module and Id values but may specify a different value for HandlerState. If the state replacement function crashes or results in an error, the original state of a gen_server or gen_fsm process is maintained; if such a crash occurs for a gen_event process, the original state of the event handler for which the state replacement function was called is maintained, but the states of other event handlers of the same gen_event process may still be updated if no errors or crashes occur while replacing their states. Add documentation for sys:get_state/1,2 and sys:replace_state/2,3. The documentation explicitly notes that the functions are intended for use during debugging. Add new tests for these functions to gen_server_SUITE, gen_fsm_SUITE, and gen_event_SUITE.
2013-04-01Use erlang:demonitor's flush option on timeoutLoïc Hoguin
It is equivalent to the few lines removed, except more efficient.
2013-04-01Don't lookup the node unless required in gen:call/{3,4}Loïc Hoguin
Move some operations that aren't required for the happy path. The operations were small, so they shouldn't show a big difference in benchmarks except for systems with many active gen processes.

The test case deletes a Dets process while it is repairing a file. Another client waiting for the Dets process to reply then kicks in and repairs the file. Apparently the temporary file was still open, resulting in an eacces error on Windows.
