Gabriele Santomaggio 2a09d30f3b Accepting request 839763 from home:matwey:branches:devel:languages:erlang:Factory
- Changes for 23.1.1:
  * erts: inet:setopts([{active,once}]) wakes up IO polling thread
    unnecessarily, leading to lock contention and visibly higher
    CPU utilization.
  * erts: Two bugs in the ERTS internal thread wakeup functionality
    have been fixed. These bugs mainly hit when all threads in the
    system tried to go to sleep. When the bugs were triggered,
    certain operations were delayed until a thread woke up due to
    some other reason. Most important operations effected were code
    loading, persistent term updates, and memory deallocation.
  * erts: Fixed bug in ets:select_replace/2 on compressed tables
    that could produce faulty results or VM crash. Bug exists since
    OTP 20.
  * erts: When compiling Erlang/OTP on macOS using Xcode 12, the
    performance of the BEAM interpreter would be degraded.
  * erts: As of OTP 22, the allocator specific memory carrier pools
    were replaced by a node global carrier pool. This unfortunately
    caused substantial memory fragmentation in some cases due to
    long lived data being spread into carriers used by allocators
    mainly handling short lived data. A new command line argument
    +M<S>cp has been introduced with which one can enable the old
    behavior as well as configuring other behaviors for the carrier
    pools. In order to configure the old behavior, with allocator
    specific carrier pools for all allocators, pass +Mucp :
    (including the colon character) as a command line argument to
    erl when starting the Erlang system. The default configuration
    for carrier pools will be changed to +Mucp : some time in the
    future, but not in this patch.
  * os_mon: The configuration parameter
    memsup_improved_system_memory_data has been introduced. It can

# Erlang in openSUSE
## Erlang Port-mapper Daemon and systemd

Erlang Port-mapper Daemon in openSUSE uses systemd socket-activation. In order to fulfill security considerations, EPMd listens on loop-back interface by default. This is enough to run rabbitmq-server, ejabberd and user-started beam processes.

For clustering, please, use ```/etc/systemd/system/epmd.socket.d/``` to configure interfaces to listen on. See man systemd.unit(5) for details.

### Upgrading from sysvinit
```/etc/sysconfig/erlang``` has no effect now, to configure EPMd use systemd capabilities instead.

### Example 1: change port
Create ```/etc/systemd/system/epmd.socket.d/port.conf``` with following content:
```
[Socket]
ListenStream=
ListenStream=127.0.0.1:4444
```
The first line is to discard vendor configuration. The second line will change the port number to listen on to 4444.

### Example 2: enable external interface
To enable accepting external connections to EPMd, create ```/etc/systemd/system/epmd.socket.d/port.conf``` with following content:
```
[Socket]
ListenStream=
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:4369
```
