Attempting to call is_record/3 (without an erlang: prefix) from a
guard if there was a local function named is_record/3 would cause
a compiler crash. For consistency with other guard tests, disallow
the call.
is_record/2 in a guard will still be allowed (and work correctly)
even if there is a local is_record/2. It could be argued that
is_record/2 should be handled in the same way as is_record/3,
but changing that now could break working code.
|
|
Consistently use external (remote) calls to the BIFs element/2,
setelement/3, and is_record/3.
|
|
If a guard test (such as is_list/1) has a local definition in a
module (or is imported), erl_lint will reject a call to it from
a guard if the call is not at the top-level:
foo(L) when is_list(L) =:= true -> %% Will be rejected.
ok.
is_list(_) -> ok.
But if the call is at the top-level, it will be accepted (and
cause a crash in a later compiler pass):
foo(L) when is_list(L) -> %% Will be accepted by erl_lint
ok.
is_list(_) -> ok.
This inconsistency was an oversight introduced when it became
possible to override BIFs with local definitions.

filename:find_src/1,2 will crash when asked to find the source
corresponding to a BEAM with no compilation options. A BEAM file
can be missing compilation options if it has been stripped using
beam_lib:strip/1 or compiled using the undocumented 'slim' option.
Why this matters: If ERL_COMPILE_OPTIONS is set to +slim before
building Erlang/OTP, there will be a crash in 'igor' during the
building of the public_key application. ('igor' merges several
source code files, and uses filename:find_src/1,2 to find the
source code.)
Change filename:find_src/1,2 to return an empty option list if
there are no options in the BEAM file.

OTP behaviour instances (gen_server, gen_fsm, gen_event) can currently
register themselves either locally or globally, and the behaviour
libraries (including gen.erl) support both addressing methods, as well
as the normal Pid and {Name, Node}.
However, there are alternative registry implementations - e.g. gproc -
and one can well imagine other ways of locating a behaviour instance,
e.g. on a node connected only via a TCP tunnel, rather than via
Distributed Erlang. In all these cases, one needs to write extra code
to identify the behaviour instance, even though the instance itself
need not be aware of how it is located.
This patch introduces a new way of locating a behaviour instance:
{via, Module, Name}.
Module is expected to export a subset of the functions in global.erl,
namely:
register_name(Name, Pid) -> yes | no
whereis_name(Name) -> pid() | undefined
unregister_name(Name) -> ok
send(Name, Msg) -> Pid
Semantics are expected to be the same as for global.erl
This can be used in all places where {global, Name} is accepted.

The appup files for kernel, stdlib and sasl did not contain any
UpFromVsn and DownToVsn. This means that it was not possible to create
a relup file with systool:make_relup if any of these applications had
changed.
This commit adds entries in the appup files for a maximum of two major
releases back - all with only one upgrade instruction:
restart_new_emulator. The point is to allow relups to be generated,
but ensure that no soft upgrade is done for these three applications -
i.e. they will always cause a restart of the emulator prior to all
other upgrade instructions from other applications.
Test cases (appup_test) are added to kernel_SUITE, stdlib_SUITE and
sasl_SUITE. These all check that expected versions are matched in the
appups, and illegal versions (older than two major releases, or in any
other way illegal) do not match. The test is written in a general way
where it is assumed that the version of these applications are stepped
according the the rule that major releases step the second number,
maintenance releases step the third number and patches step the fourth
number.

Calls to global:whereis_name/1 have been substituted for calls to
global:safe_whereis_name/1 since the latter is not safe at all.
The reason for not doing this earlier is that setting a global lock
masked out a bug concerning the restart of supervised children. The
bug has now been fixed by a modification of global:whereis_name/1.

A number of memory allocation optimizations have been implemented. Most
optimizations reduce contention caused by synchronization between
threads during allocation and deallocation of memory. Most notably:
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific allocator
instances has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific
pre-allocators has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use scheduler specific
instances instead of one instance. Apart from reducing contention
this also ensures that memory allocators always create memory
segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.

Currently, the external fun syntax "fun M:F/A" only supports
literals. That is, "fun lists:reverse/1" is allowed but not
"fun M:F/A".
In many real-life situations, some or all of M, F, A are
not known until run-time, and one is forced to either use
the undocumented erlang:make_fun/3 BIF or to use a
"tuple fun" (which is deprecated).
EEP-23 suggests that the parser (erl_parse) should immediately
transform "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)". We have
not followed that approach in this implementation, because we
want the abstract code to mirror the source code as closely
as possible, and we also consider erlang:make_fun/3 to
be an implementation detail that we might want to remove in
the future.
Instead, we will change the abstract format for "fun M:F/A" (in a way
that is not backwards compatible), and while we are at it, we will
move the translation from "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)"
from sys_pre_expand down to the v3_core pass. We will also update
the debugger and xref to use the new format.
We did consider making the abstract format backward compatible if
no variables were used in the fun, but decided against it. Keeping
it backward compatible would mean that there would be different
abstract formats for the no-variable and variable case, and tools
would have to handle both formats, probably forever.

The expected behaviour of a C-style preprocessor (such as Erlang's epp) is
to allow a header file to include another header file in the same directory
even though that directory is not explicitly in the include path, and even
if the actual include path might reference another directory containing a
file with the same name. For example, if src/foo.erl explicitly includes
"../include/foo.hrl", then foo.hrl should be able to include "bar.hrl" in
that same directory even though "../include" might not be in the search
path, and even if another file named bar.hrl could be found using the search
path it should not override the one in the same directory as foo.hrl.
In Erlang, the most common situation is that a user of an installed
application includes a main public header file using include_lib
("appname/include/foo.hrl") and that file includes a secondary header file
"bar.hrl". However, if it does this using include_lib, it causes a
bootstrapping problem - in the build environment for the application itself,
the application is not necessarily found by name. On the other hand, if
foo.hrl uses a plain include, then bar.hrl might be found when the
application is built (if explicit paths are set in the makefils) but not
later on when a user includes the main header file of the installed
application via include_lib.
By making -include always look in the directory of the current file before
it uses the search path, this problem is remedied, and include directives
behave in a more intuitive way.
This completes a partial fix in R11 that only worked for include_lib().

A Dets table with sufficiently large buckets could not always be repaired.
(Reported by Gordon Guthrie.)
The format of Dets files has been modified. When downgrading tables
created with the new system will be repaired. Otherwise the
modification should not be noticeable.

The two noncharacter code points 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF were not
allowed to be encoded or decoded using the unicode module or
bit syntax. That causes an inconsistency, since the noncharacters
16#FDD0 to 16#FDEF could be encoded/decoded.
There is two ways to fix that inconsistency.
We have chosen to allow 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF to be encoded and
decoded, because the noncharacters could be useful internally
within an application and it will make encoding and decoding
slightly faster.

Now, in child specification, the shutdown value can also be set to infinity
for worker children. This restriction was removed because this is not always
possible to predict the shutdown time for a worker. This is highly
application-dependent.
|

If a Dets table had been properly closed but the space management data
could not been read, it was not possible to repair the file.

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.)

According to the supervisor's documentation:
"Important note on simple-one-for-one supervisors: The dynamically
created child processes of a simple-one-for-one supervisor are not
explicitly killed, regardless of shutdown strategy, but are expected
to terminate when the supervisor does (that is, when an exit signal
from the parent process is received)."
All is fine as long as we stop simple_one_for_one supervisor manually.
Dynamic children catch the exit signal from the supervisor and leave.
But, if this happens when we stop an application, after the top
supervisor has stopped, the application master kills all remaining
processes associated to this application. So, dynamic children that trap
exit signals can be killed during their cleanup (here we mean inside
terminate/2). This is unpredictable and highly time-dependent.
In this commit, supervisor module is patched to explicitly terminate
dynamic children accordingly to the shutdown strategy.
NOTE: Order in which dynamic children are stopped is not defined. In
fact, this is "almost" done at the same time.

Ever since the test suites were converted to the common_test
convention, the tests for long names started to fail on Windows. The
reason is that those test cases depend on the current working
directory, and that the current working directory in common_test test
cases is usually set to a directory with a longer pathname than in
test_server test suites.
Since neither Erlang/OTP nor common_test provides a portable way
to create a temporary directory with a short name, we will have to
abuse priv_dir by going upwards from it. For further information,
see the comment in run_in_short_tempdir/2.

"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.
