stdlib: Garbage the shell's evaluator process more often
|
|
A minor fix.
If the Erlang shell saves no results (history(0) or results(0)), the
evaluator process now garbage collects itself. This means that any
huge binaries created by the evaluation are reclaimed faster than
before.

dialyzer: Add a test of erl_tar:table/1,2
Fix false Dialyzer warnings for erl_tar:table/1
|
|
Some of the functions of the erl_eval module do not call the Erlang
code linter, so they need to explicitly check that the newly
introduced stacktrace variable is not bound.
|
|
The call "erlang:get_stacktrace()" is not handled explicitly. If there
are issues, they can probably be ignored since erlang:get_stacktrace/1
will be deprecated and removed.
|

'tar_entry()' values are only returned if we specify the 'verbose'
option when calling table/2, which table/1 doesn't do.
Now, it appears that Dialyzer as of OTP 20 is clever enough to realize
that the return type of table/1 must intersect with the return type of
table/2, and so it ignores the fact that table/1 says it returns
strings, and therefore its callers are expected to be dealing with
'tar_entry()' tuples, and never with strings.
This is obviously a mismatch between what the code does and what the
spec says is does, leading to false Dialyzer warnings on code that uses
table/1 (and, presumably, also table/2 when called without
the 'verbose' option.)

The Design Principles states that an application can have Erlang
source files one level below the "src" directory, and now
filelib:find_source() by default searches one level below "src".
The same applies to "esrc". That directory is only mentioned in
filename(3).

This subtest revolves around the possibility that the underlying
port can be killed, which is nonsense now that the file suite no
longer uses ports for anything.
|
|
This also hides the module behind ?PRIM_FILE to make testing new
implementations less painful.

This commit adds a new syntax for retrieving the stacktrace
without calling erlang:get_stacktrace/0. That allow us to
deprecate erlang:get_stacktrace/0 and ultimately remove it.
The problem with erlang:get_stacktrace/0 is that it can keep huge
terms in a process for an indefinite time after an exception. The
stacktrace can be huge after a 'function_clause' exception or a failed
call to a BIF or operator, because the arguments for the call will be
included in the stacktrace. For example:
1> catch abs(lists:seq(1, 1000)).
{'EXIT',{badarg,[{erlang,abs,
[[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20|...]],
[]},
{erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,674}]},
{erl_eval,expr,5,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,431}]},
{shell,exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,687}]},
{shell,eval_exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,642}]},
{shell,eval_loop,3,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,627}]}]}}
2> erlang:get_stacktrace().
[{erlang,abs,
[[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,
23,24|...]],
[]},
{erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,674}]},
{erl_eval,expr,5,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,431}]},
{shell,exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,687}]},
{shell,eval_exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,642}]},
{shell,eval_loop,3,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,627}]}]

We can extend the syntax for clauses in try/catch to optionally bind
the stacktrace to a variable.
Here is an example using the current syntax:
try
Expr
catch C:E ->
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace(),
.
.
.
In the new syntax, it would look like:
try
Expr
catch
C:E:Stk ->
.
.
.
Only a variable (not a pattern) is allowed in the stacktrace position,
to discourage matching of the stacktrace. (Matching would also be
expensive, because the raw format of the stacktrace would have to be
converted to the cooked form before matching.)
Note that:
try
Expr
catch E ->
.
.
.
is a shorthand for:
try
Expr
catch throw:E ->
.
.
.
If the stacktrace is to be retrieved for a throw, the 'throw:'
prefix must be explicitly included:
try
Expr
catch throw:E:Stk ->
.
.
.

In the grammar file for the Erlang language, patterns are parsed
as expressions. erl_lint will then weed out expressions that are
not legal patterns.
The rule sharing causes problems if we were to introduce new
syntax, for example a pattern followed by a ':'. There would
be a shift/reduce conflict, and a pattern followed by a ':'
would be parsed as a remote call.
Introduce a new pat_expr rule to express exactly the subset
of expressions that is allowed in pattern.
Note: For the moment, we must allow full expressions in
case clauses to keep 'merl' working.

Often the decode functions return a function_clause error, but not
always, and the errors have not been consistent between modifications
of the base64 module.
Now the errors are returned as they happen--no attempt to make them
look nice is done. The alternative, to ensure that, for example,
{badarg, Culprit} is always returned upon bad input, was deemed
pointless.

|
Using /bits instead of /binary is faster when constructing binaries.
|
|
It is sometimes faster to use binary_to_list on input, at least when
not considering time for garbage collections. The three functions all
return a list, and the temporary list created by binary_to_list should
be reclaimed very fast. The implementation from before is thus kept.
