2011-11-24Add plugin support for alternative name lookupUlf Wiger
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. faulty export in gen_fsm_SUITE.erl await process death in dummy_via:reset() fix error in gen_[server|fsm]:enter_loop() fix documentation

2011-11-23Avoid slow code loading of BEAM code in a hipe-enabled emulatorBjörn Gustavsson
On my Linux computer, building the entire Erlang/OTP system with hipe disabled took about 8 minutes. With hipe enabled, but without any native code, the build took about 23 minutes, i.e. more than 3 times slower. (The computer has 4 cores, and I used 'make -j6'.) On my eight-core Mac (running 'make -j10') there was only a slight slowdown when hipe was enabled. The culprit is hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1, which will be called every time a module is loaded (even if the module contains no native code). If post_beam_load/1 is called in a hipe-enabled emulator, it will block multi-scheduling, even if no work needs to be done. Apparently the cost for blocking multi-scheduling can vary greatly, depending on the operating system and system load. As a quick and conservative fix, don't call post_beam_load/1 unless some native code has been previously loaded.

2011-11-17Fix bug in erts upgrade on windowsSiri Hansen
The service which represents the temporary release during erts upgrade on windows was never deleted. This has been corrected. The service is now renamed just after the emulator restart.
2011-11-17Add release vsn info to erts_vsn_changed warningSiri Hansen
2011-11-17Check for sasl application in systools:make_script and make_relupSiri Hansen
make_script will give warning but allow it make_relup will fail since it is not possible to upgrade if sasl is not included in both releases.
2011-11-17Add syntax check of relup to check_install_release and install_releaseSiri Hansen
This commit adds a check that all instructions in the relup are valid. Earlier, the last part (after point_of_no_return) was not checked before the actual installation started, meaning that if the relup was hand written, there was a potential for crashing the upgrade here.
2011-11-17Add documentation for upgrade from pre R15 to post R15 saslSiri Hansen
2011-11-17Handle upgrade from pre R15 to post R15 saslSiri Hansen
New emulator upgrade mechanism introduced in R15 can only work if the sasl version to upgrade from is 2.2 or later. I.e. if we are already running at least R15. This commit adds backwards compatiblity for upgrades from earlier versions, meaning that the new code is loaded into the old emulator and code_change is executed - then after all application code is updated, the emulator is restarted with the new erts version. Note that this might cause problems if the new code is compiled with the new emulator and there have been updates to the beam format. If this happens, the workaround is to compile the new code with the old emulator.
2011-11-17Step version of sasl to 2.2 for R15Siri Hansen
This is needed for sasl_SUITE:appup_test to work, therefore we do not wait until release time.
