The postponed events, the user state and data, and the error
reason are all limited in error events (if the Kernel variable
error_logger_format_depth is set).
|
|
|
|
The size of the message queue and the dictionary is limited in
crash reports.
To avoid creating the potentially huge list of messages of the message
queue, messages are received (if the Kernel variable
error_logger_format_depth is set).
The tag 'message_queue_len' has been added to the crash report.
|
|
The state of the gen_server is limited in error events before exiting
(if the Kernel variable error_logger_format_depth is set).
An alternative is to let the error_logger limit all messages
(error_msg, format, warning_msg, info_msg), which would not limit
reports and also add a smallish overhead to event logging.
It is not decided if the alternative is to be implemented.

The term returned by io_lib:limit_term(Term, Depth) should return
the same string if substituted for Term in
io_lib:format("~P", [Term, Depth]) or io_lib:format("~W", [Term, Depth]).

proc_lib calls erlang:get_stacktrace/0 twice, which is unnecessary,
and potentially unsafe since there are calls to many functions
in between. Any of the calls could potentially cause and catch
an exception, invalidating the stacktrace.
Only call erlang:get_stacktrace/0 once, and pass the result to
the second place where it is needed.

It happens to work today, but it is potentially unsafe to call
io:format/2 before calling erlang:get_stacktrace/0. Make the
code safe by calling erlang:get_stacktrace/0 directly after
catching the exception.
|
|
Warn for potentially unsafe use of get_stacktrace/0
|
|
Add option hibernate_after to gen_server, gen_statem and gen_event.
Also added to the deprecated gen_fsm behaviour.

erlang:get_stacktrace/0 returns the stacktrace for the latest
exception. The problem is that the stacktrace is kept until the next
exception occurs. If the last exception was a 'function_clause' or a
'badarg', the arguments for the call are also kept forever. The
arguments can be terms of any size (potentially huge).
In a future release, we would like to only allow
erlang:get_stacktrace/0 from within a 'try' expression. That would
make it possible to clear the stacktrace when the 'try' expression is
exited.
The 'catch' expression has no natural end where the stacktrace could
be cleared. The stacktrace could be cleared at the end of the function
that the 'catch' occurs in, but that would cause problems in the
following scenario (from real life, but simplified):
try
...
catch _:_ ->
io:format(...),
io:format("~p\n", [erlang:get_stacktrace()])
end.
%% In io.erl.
format(Fmt, Args) ->
Res = case ... of
SomePattern ->
catch...
...;
SomeOtherPattern ->
%% Output the formatted string here
...
end,
clear_stacktrace(), %% Inserted by compiler.
Res.
The call to io:format() would always clear the stacktrace before
it could be retrieved.
That problem could be solved by tightning the scope in which the
stacktrace is kept, but the rules for how long erlang:get_stacktrace/0
would work would become complicated.
Therefore, the solution we suggest for a future major release of
OTP is that erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will return [] if it is called
outside the 'catch' part of a 'try' expression.
To help users prepare, introduce a warning when it is likely that
erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will always return an empty list, for example
in this code:
catch error(foo),
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace()
or in this code:
try Expr
catch _:_ -> ok end,
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace()
|
|
In the future, erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will probably only work
inside a the 'catch' block of a 'try' expression.
Future-proof the code by rewriting the old-style catch to
a try...catch.

Enable ets:select_replace to do a generic single object

a matchspec like this:
[{Old, [], [{const, New}]}]
The only exception when this does not work is if the key
contains maps or atoms looking like variables (like '$1').

The extended parser introduced in last commit is used in qlc for
solving an old bug: pids and refs could not be parsed by
string_to_handle(). The parser is also used for adjustments regarding
ETS identifiers (now references) in qlc_SUITE.
Notice that pids, references, ports, and external functions that
cannot be created in the currently running system cause syntax errors
(as before).
|

As of Erlang/OTP 20.0, the type of ETS tables, ets:tid(), is a
reference(). A request was put forward that the Erlang shell should be
able to handle references in its input.
This commit introduces an extended parser in module lib. It can parse
pids, ports, references, and external funs under the condition that
they can be created in the running system. The parser is meant to be
used internally in Erlang/OTP. The alternative, to extend erl_scan and
erl_parse, was deemed inferior as it would require the abstract format
be able to represent pids, ports, references, and funs, which would be
confusing as they are not expressions as such, but data types.
