Erts 5.8.3 + +
Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

+ The scroll wheel now scrolls the werl window on Windows.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8985

+ + +

+ Some malformed distribution messages could cause VM to + crash, this is now corrected.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8993

+ + +

+ The OS function getifaddrs() can return NULL in some + address fields for e.g PPP and tunnel devices which + caused the emulator to segfault. This bug has now been + corrected.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8996

+ + +

+ The expression <<A:0>> would always produce + an empty binary, even if A was not an integer. + Corrected to cause a badarg exception if the type + of A is invalid. (Thanks to Zvi.)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8997

+ + +

+ A bug that potentially could cause an emulator crash when + deleting an ETS-table has been fixed. A resource leak + when hitting the maximum amount of ETS-tables allowed has + also been fixed.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8999

+ + +

+ A bug in the exit/2 BIF could potentially cause an + emulator crash.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9005

+ + +

+ Due to a bug in glibc the runtime system could abort + while trying to destroy a mutex. The runtime system will + now issue a warning instead of aborting.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9009

+ + +

+ A bug in epmd could create strange behaviour when + listen() calls failed. This is now corrected thanks to + Steve Vinoski.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9024

+ + +

When setting file_info the win32_driver will now + correctly set access and modified time. Previously these + entities were swapped.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9046

+ + +

+ Setting scheduler bind type to unbound failed if + binding of schedulers wasn't supported, or if CPU + topology wasn't present. This even though the + documentation stated that it is possible to set the bind + type to unbound.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9056 Aux Id: Seq11779

+ + +

Two problems were fixed in crash dump: The time left + for timers are now shown as unsigned integers and the + contents of ordered_set ETS tables is no longer + included.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9057

+ + +

+ The VM could fail to set IP_TOS and SO_PRIORITY in + certain situations, either because sockets were supplied + as open file descriptors, or because SO_PRIORITY by + default was set higher than the user can explicitly set + it to. Those situations are now handled.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9069

+ + +

+ Wx on MacOS X generated complains on stderr about certain + cocoa functions not beeing called from the "Main thread". + This is now corrected.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9081

+ + +

+ Fix a couple typos in driver_entry(3) (thanks to Tuncer + Ayaz).

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9085

+ + +

+ Mention that "-detached" implies "-noinput"

+

+ Clarify that specifying "-noinput" is unnecessary if the + "-detached" flag is given. (thanks to Holger Weiß)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9086

+ + +

+ A potential problem (found by code inspection) when + calling a fun whose code was not loaded has been fixed.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9095

+ + +

+ The emulator could get into a state where it didn't check + for I/O.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9105 Aux Id: Seq11798

+ + +

+ Attempting to create binaries exceeding 2Gb (using for + example term_to_binary/1) would crash the emulator + with an attempt to allocate huge amounts of memory. + (Thanks to Jon Meredith.)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9117

+ + +

+ Fix erlang:hibernate/3 on HiPE enabled emulator (Thanks + to Paul Guyot)

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9125

+ + +
+ + +
Improvements and New Features + + +

From this release, the previously experimental + halfword emulator is now official. It can be enabled by + giving the --enable-halfword-emulator option to + the configure script.

+

The halfword emulator is a 64-bit application, but + uses halfwords (32-bit words) for all data in Erlang + processes, therefore using less memory and being faster + than the standard 64-bit emulator. The total size of all + BEAM code and all process data for all processes is + limited to 4Gb, but ETS tables and off-heap binaries are + only limited by the amount of available memory.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8941

+ + +

+ 32-bit atomic memory operations have been introduced + internally in the run time system, and are now used where + appropriate. There were previously only atomic memory + operations of word size available. The 32-bit atomic + memory operations slightly reduce memory consumption, and + slightly improve performance on 64-bit runtime systems.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8974

+ + +

+ Performance enhancements for looking up timer-entries and + removing timers from the wheel.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-8990

+ + +

+ Write accesses to ETS tables have been optimized by + reducing the amount of atomic memory operations needed + during a write access.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9000

+ + +

+ Strange C coding in the VM made the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE + option to gcc-4.5 react badly. The code is now cleaned up + so that it's accepted by gcc-4.5.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9025

+ + +

+ The memory footprint for loaded code has been somewhat + reduced (especially in the 64-bit BEAM machine).

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9030

+ + +

+ The maximum number of allowed arguments for an Erlang + function has been lowered from 256 to 255, so that the + number of arguments can now fit in a byte.

+

+ Own Id: OTP-9049

+ + +

+ Dependency generation for Makefiles has been added to the + compiler and erlc. See the manual pages for + compile and erlc. (Thanks to Jean-Sebastien + Pedron.)

Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions + + +

+ Add a --fullpath option to Dialyzer

+ Original patch submitted by Magnus Henoch (legoscia) on + 15/9/2010 and cooked to death in the 'pu' branch all this + time.

+

+ The patch was essentially correct and most of it has been + used as is, but there have been some changes to make the + code slightly prettier, avoid some code duplication, and + add documentation to dialyzer's doc files and to its help + message.

+

Not all Erlang types are included in the + documentation, but only those exported by some + export_type declaration or used by some documented + Erlang specification (-spec).

+

There is currently no support for overloaded Erlang + specifications.

+

The syntax definitions of EDoc have been augmented to + cope with most of the Erlang types. (But we recommend + that Erlang types should be used instead.)

edoc:read_source() takes one new option, + report_missing_types. edoc_layout:module() + takes one new option, pretty_printer.

+ Sanitize the specs of the code module

Since these functions have proper specs + these days and code duplication (pun intended) is never a + good idea, their type information was removed from + erl_bif_types.

+

+ While doing this, some erroneous comments were fixed in + the code module and also made sure that the code now runs + without dialyzer warnings even when the + -Wunmatched_returns option is used.

+ Fix bug in the simplification of inexact comparisons

+

+ and hipe erroneously evaluated the calls f(0) and f(0.0) + to 'false'.

However, the garbage collector no longer + depends on constants being allocated within a single + pool, and the fixed size of the pool both meant + unnecessary allocations on most deployments and crashes + on deployments requiring more constants.

+

+ The code was simplified to directly invoke erts_alloc. + Debugging and undocumented function + hipe_bifs:show_literals/0 was removed (it returned true + and output text to the console), and debugging and + undocumented function hipe_bifs:constants_size/0 was + rewritten with a global to count the size of allocated + constants.

Since these functions have proper specs + these days and code duplication (pun intended) is never a + good idea, their type information was removed from + erl_bif_types.

+

+ While doing this, some erroneous comments were fixed in + the code module and also made sure that the code now runs + without dialyzer warnings even when the + -Wunmatched_returns option is used.

+

+ Some cleanups were applied to erl_bif_types too.

Observer 0.9.9 + +
Improvements and New Features + + +

+ The time needed for loading a crashump into the crashdump + viewer would earlier grow exponentially with the size of + the crashdump file. Reading a file of 20M would take a + couple of minutes, and for a dump of 250M it would take + between 1 and 2 hours. This has been solved.

+

+ Earlier, all processes, timers, funs or ets-tables would + be loaded into the memory of the crashdump viewer node + before sending it on to the web server. This has been + changed and the pages are now sent to the web server in + chunks.

+

+ A security function in newer web browsers prevents a full + file path to be sent from an HTML file input field, i.e. + the field needed to implement the "Browse" button when + loading a file into the crashdump viewer. To overcome + this, the file input field is no longer used. Instead a + normal text input field is used, and the user needs to + manually insert the complete file path. For convenience, + a shell script and a batch file are added to the observer + application. These can be used to start the + crashdump_viewer and a browser and load a file - with the + file name given from the command line. The shell script + and batch file are called cdv and cdv.bat respectively, + and can be found in the priv dir of the observer + application.

+

+ Previously, relup file always included an + application:start(Application, permanent) apply + instruction for every application that appear in the + UpTo/DowFrom release file, whatever their start type in + the release file.

+

+ The new implementation fixes this bug by honoring the + start type according to the rel(5) format. If the start + type is none, no apply line is included in the relup.

+
