The new Dbgi chunk returns data in the following format:
{debug_info_v1, Backend, Data}
This allows compilers to store the debug info in different
formats. In order to retrieve a particular format, for
instance, Erlang Abstract Format, one may invoke:
Backend:debug_info(erlang_v1, Module, Data, Opts)
Besides introducing the chunk above, this commit also:
* Changes beam_lib:chunk(Beam, [:abstract_code]) to
read from the new Dbgi chunk while keeping backwards
compatibility with old .beams
* Adds the {debug_info, {Backend, Data}} option to
compile:file/2 and friends that are stored in the
Dbgi chunk. This allows the debug info encryption
mechanism to work across compilers
* Improves dialyzer to work directly on Core Erlang,
allowing languages that do not have the Erlang
Abstract Format to be dialyzer as long as they emit
the new chunk and their backend implementation is
available
Backwards compatibility is kept across the board except
for those calling beam_lib:chunk(Beam, ["Abst"]), as the
old chunk is no longer available. Note however the "Abst"
chunk has always been optional.
Future OTP versions may remove parsing the "Abst" chunk
altogether from beam_lib once Erlang 19 and earlier is no
longer supported.
The current Dialyzer implementation still supports earlier
.beam files and such may also be removed in future versions.

for new external atom format.
|
|
The new chunk stores atoms encoded in UTF-8.
beam_lib has also been modified to handle the new
'utf8_atoms' attribute while the 'atoms' attribute
may be a missing chunk from now on.
The binary_to_atom/2 BIF can now encode any utf8
binary with up to 255 characters.
The list_to_atom/1 BIF can now accept codepoints
higher than 255 with up to 255 characters (thanks
to Björn Gustavsson).

While we are it, also re-ident the files.
|
|
We want to re-ident the source files after having taken out
all ?line macros. When re-indenting using Emacs, it's important
that comments that should be at the beginning of a line (or
follow the indentation of statements around it) must start with
"%%".

There is no practial difference.

|
|
Either rely on the default 30 minutes timetrap, or set the timeout
using the supported methods in common_test.
|
|
As a first step to removing the test_server application as
as its own separate application, change the inclusion of
test_server.hrl to an inclusion of ct.hrl and remove the
inclusion of test_server_line.hrl.

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.)

"Line" is now the last chunk in a BEAM file, causing
beam_lib_SUITE:error/1 to fail. To avoid being bitten by this problem
again, don't simply change "Abst" to "Line", but use beam_lib:info/1
to find out the name of the last chunk.

Running Dialyzer on the test suites revealed a few type errors.
