  <description>
    <p>The Kernel application has all the code necessary to run
      the Erlang runtime system: file servers, code servers,
      and so on.</p>
    <p>The Kernel application is the first application started. It is
      mandatory in the sense that the minimal system based on
      Erlang/OTP consists of Kernel and STDLIB. Kernel
      contains the following functional areas:</p>
    <list type="bulleted">
      <item>Start, stop, supervision, configuration, and distribution of applications</item>
      <item>Code loading</item>
      <item>Logging</item>
      <item>Global name service</item>
      <item>Supervision of Erlang/OTP</item>
      <item>Communication with sockets</item>
      <item>Operating system interface</item>

    <title>Logger Handlers</title>
    <p>Two standard logger handlers are defined in
      the Kernel application. These are described in the

    <title>Configuration</title>
    <p>The following configuration parameters are defined for the Kernel

    see file <seealso marker="app"><c>app(4)</c></seealso>.</p>
    <taglist>
      <tag><c>distributed = [Distrib]</c></tag>
      <item>
        <p>Specifies which applications that are distributed and on which
          nodes they are allowed to execute. In this parameter:</p>
        <list type="bulleted">

      </item>
      <tag><c>dist_auto_connect = Value</c></tag>
      <item>
        <p>Specifies when nodes are automatically connected. If
          this parameter is not specified, a node is always
          automatically connected, for example, when a message is to be sent to

	  with <seealso marker="#logger_sasl_compatible">
	    <c>logger_sasl_compatible</c></seealso>.</p>
        <p>The <c>logger </c> parameter is described in

      </item>
      <tag><marker id="logger_level"/><c>logger_level = Level</c></tag>
      <item>
	<p>Specifies the primary log level for Logger. Log events with
	  the same, or a more severe level, pass through the primary
	  log level check. See
	  section <seealso marker="logger_chapter">Logging</seealso>
	  in the Kernel User's Guide for more information about Logger
	  and log levels.</p>
	<p><c>Level = emergency | alert | critical | error | warning |

      <tag><marker id="logger_sasl_compatible"/>

      <item>
	<p>Specifies if Logger behaves backwards compatible with the
	  SASL error logging functionality from releases prior to
	  Erlang/OTP 21.0.</p>
	<p>If this parameter is set to <c>true</c>, the default Logger
	  handler does not log any progress-, crash-, or supervisor
	  reports. If the SASL application is then started, it adds a
	  Logger handler named <c>sasl</c>, which logs these events
	  according to values of the SASL configuration
	  parameter <c>sasl_error_logger</c>
	  and <c>sasl_errlog_type</c>.</p>
	<p>See section
	  <seealso marker="sasl:sasl_app#deprecated_error_logger_config">
	    Deprecated Error Logger Event Handlers and
	 Configuration</seealso> in the sasl(6) manual page for
	 information about the SASL configuration parameters.</p>
	<p>See section <seealso marker="sasl:error_logging">SASL Error
	  Logging</seealso> in the SASL User's Guide, and
	  section <seealso marker="logger_chapter#compatibility">Backwards
	  Compatibility with error_logger</seealso> in the Kernel
	  User's Guide for information about the SASL error logging
	  functionality, and how Logger can be backwards compatible
	  with this.</p>
	<p>Defaults to <c>false</c>.</p>
	<note>
	  <p>If this parameter is set to <c>true</c>,
	    <c>sasl_errlog_type</c> indicates that progress reports
	    shall be logged, and the configured primary log level
	    is <c>notice</c> or more severe, then SASL automatically
	    sets the primary log level to <c>info</c>. That is, this
	    setting can potentially overwrite the value of the Kernel
	    configuration parameter <c>logger_level</c>. This is to
	    allow progress reports, which have log level <c>info</c>,
	    to be forwarded to the handlers.</p>

      <item>
        <marker id="net_setuptime"></marker>
        <p><c>SetupTime</c> must be a positive integer or floating point
          number, and is interpreted as the maximum allowed time
          for each network operation during connection setup to another
          Erlang node. The maximum allowed value is <c>120</c>. If higher values
          are specified, <c>120</c> is used. Default is 7 seconds if the variable
          is not specified, or if the value is incorrect (for example, not a number).</p>
        <p>Notice that this value does not limit the total connection
          setup time, but rather each individual network operation during
          the connection setup and handshake.</p>
      </item>
      <tag><c>net_ticktime = TickTime</c></tag>
      <item>
        <marker id="net_ticktime"></marker>
        <p>Specifies the <c>net_kernel</c> tick time in seconds. This is the
	approximate time a connected node may be unresponsive until it is
	considered down and thereby disconnected.</p>
	<p>Once every <c>TickTime/4</c> seconds, each connected node is ticked
	if nothing has been sent to it during that last <c>TickTime/4</c>
	interval. A tick is a small package sent on the connection. A connected
	node is considered to be down if no ticks or payload packages have been
	received during the last four <c>TickTime/4</c> intervals. This ensures
	that nodes that are not responding, for reasons such as hardware errors,
	are considered to be down.</p>
        <p>As the availability is only checked every <c>TickTime/4</c> seconds,
	the actual time <c>T</c> a node have been unresponsive when
	detected may vary between <c>MinT</c> and <c>MaxT</c>,
	where:</p>
        <code type="none">
MinT = TickTime - TickTime / 4
MaxT = TickTime + TickTime / 4</code>
        <p><c>TickTime</c> defaults to <c>60</c> seconds. Thus,
        <c><![CDATA[45 < T < 75]]></c> seconds.</p>
        <p>Notice that <em>all</em> communicating nodes are to have the
	<em>same</em> <c>TickTime</c> value specified, as it determines both the
	frequency of outgoing ticks and the expected frequency of incominging
	ticks.</p>
        <p>Normally, a terminating node is detected immediately by the transport
	protocol (like TCP/IP).</p>
      </item>
      <tag><c>shutdown_timeout = integer() | infinity</c></tag>
      <item>

      </item>
      <tag><c>sync_nodes_timeout = integer() | infinity</c></tag>
      <item>
        <p>Specifies the time (in milliseconds) that this node
          waits for the mandatory and optional nodes to start. If

          If this is set to some other value
          than the empty list, it replaces the default rules. Rules can be
          simple pairs of directory suffixes, such as <c>{"ebin",
          "src"}</c>, which are used by <c>filelib:find_file/2</c>, or
          triples specifying separate directory suffix rules depending on
          file name extensions, for example <c>[{".beam", ".erl", [{"ebin",
          "src"}]}</c>, which are used by <c>filelib:find_source/2</c>. Both
          kinds of rules can be mixed in the list.</p>
	  <p>The interpretation of <c>ObjDirSuffix</c> and <c>SrcDirSuffix</c>
	  is as follows: if the end of the directory name where an
	  object is located matches <c>ObjDirSuffix</c>, then the
	  name created by replacing <c>ObjDirSuffix</c> with
	  <c>SrcDirSuffix</c> is expanded by calling
	  <seealso marker="stdlib:filelib#wildcard/1">
	  <c>filelib:wildcard/1</c></seealso>, and the first regular
	  file found among the matches is the source file.

    <title>Deprecated Configuration Parameters</title>
    <p>In Erlang/OTP 21.0, a new API for logging was added. The
      old <c>error_logger</c> event manager, and event handlers
      running on this manager, still work, but they are no longer used
      by default.</p>
    <p>The following application configuration parameters can still be
      set, but they are only used if the corresponding configuration
      parameters for Logger are not set.</p>
    <taglist>
      <tag><c>error_logger</c></tag>
      <item>Replaced by setting the type of the default
      <seealso marker="logger_std_h#type"><c>logger_std_h</c></seealso>
      to the same value. Example:
      <code type="none">
erl -kernel logger '[{handler,default,logger_std_h,#{config=>#{type=>{file,"/tmp/erlang.log"}}}}]'
      </code>
      </item>
      <tag><c>error_logger_format_depth</c></tag>
      <item>Replaced by setting the <seealso marker="logger_formatter#depth"><c>depth</c></seealso>
      parameter of the default handlers formatter. Example:
      <code type="none">
erl -kernel logger '[{handler,default,logger_std_h,#{formatter=>{logger_formatter,#{legacy_header=>true,template=>[{logger_formatter,header},"\n",msg,"\n"],depth=>10}}}]'
      </code>
