beam_lib: Clarify the beam() type in code and documentation OTP-15378
2018-10-19beam_lib: Remove obsolete module() from the beam() typeBjörn Gustavsson
The type `beam()` in the `beam_lib` module is confusing: -type beam() :: module() | file:filename() | binary(). It says that the module name can be used to identify the BEAM module to be accessed, but passing in the module name only works if the BEAM file is located in the current working directory because the module is not searched for in the code path. The reason that it is allowed to pass in the module name as an atom is for backward compatibility. A long time ago, atoms instead of strings were used as filenames. For that reason, `filename` and `file` still accept atoms as filenames (although the practice is frown upon). `beam_lib` accepts an atom as the filename for the same reason. To remove the confusion, remove `module()` from the type and the mention of it in the documentation. Code that uses an atom as a filename will still work, but Dialyzer will issue a warning. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-696

2018-09-17stdlib: Allow lists with binaries in the Format argumentHans Bolinder
As a consequence of some refactoring (OTP-14983, option 'chars_limit'), the Format argument of io_lib:format() no longer accepts binaries in lists in Erlang/OTP 21.0. Note that if Format is not of type io:format(), control sequences in Format are ignored. This can result in unpredictable behaviour if, for example, the output of io_lib:format() is used as Format: if the output happens to be a string(), then control sequences are interpreted, otherwise not. A check that Format is of type io:format() will likely be introduced in Erlang/OTP 22.0. That will probably mean work for some users, but considering how unpredictable io_lib:format() is, we should try to fix that.

2018-09-12[proc_lib] Improve crash reports for single line loggingSiri Hansen
2018-09-12[logger] Remove encoding option from logger_formatterSiri Hansen
The encoding option was introduced in commit 270d909696a753af022df72a404c73f2895b4a02, to allow report callbacks to format according to a given encoding. There was, however, no connection between this encoding option, and the encoding of the device to which the logger handler was writing. Since a formatter is defined to return unicode:chardata(), and in order to avoid mismatch with the encoding of the device, the encoding option is now removed from the formatter. The handler itself must make sure that it does not write illegal data to its device.

* siri/supervisor/warn-shutdown-race/ERL-724: [supervisor] Add warning about race condition
2018-09-07[supervisor] Add warning about race conditionSiri Hansen
ERL-724: "During a 'gentle' shutdown, supervisors unlink from their children before sending shutdown signals to them. This can lead to a race condition in supervision trees, when the timeout for gentle shutdown of a parent supervisor expires and it kills a child supervisor that has just unlinked from a child of its own, leaving the child supervisor's own child still running after its supervisor is killed." This commit adds a warning about this in the documentation.

2018-08-13Correct error behavior of is_map_key/2 in guardsBjörn Gustavsson
Consider the following functions: foo() -> bar(not_a_map). bar(M) when not is_map_key(a, M) -> ok; bar(_) -> error. What will `foo/0` return? It depends. If the module is compiled with the default compiler options, the return value will be `ok`. If the module is compiled with the `inline` option, the return value will be `error`. The correct value is `error`, because the call to `is_map_key/2` when the second argument is not a map should fail the entire guard. That is the way other failing guards BIFs are handled. For example: foo() -> bar(not_a_tuple). bar(T) when not element(1, T) -> ok; bar(_) -> error. `foo/0` always returns `error` (whether the code is inlined or not). This bug can be fixed by changing the classification of `is_map_key/2` in the `erl_internal` module. It is now classified as a type test, which is incorrect because type tests should not fail. Reclassifying it as a plain guard BIF corrects the bug. This correction also fixes the internal consistency check failure which was reported in: https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-699
