The Erlang BIFs and predefined types.

By convention, most [Built-In Functions](`e:system:ref_man_functions.md#built-in-functions-bifs`)
(BIFs) and all [predefined types](`e:system:typespec.md#predefined`) are included
in this module. Some of the BIFs and all of the predefined types are viewed more
or less as part of the Erlang programming language and are _auto-imported_.
Thus, it is not necessary to specify the module name. For example, the calls
[`atom_to_list(erlang)`](`atom_to_list/1`) and [`erlang:atom_to_list(erlang)`](`atom_to_list/1`)
are identical.

Auto-imported BIFs are annotated with `auto-imported` and predefined types are
annotated with `predefined`.

Some auto-imported BIFs are also allowed in [guard expression](`e:system:expressions.md#guard-expressions`).
Such BIFs are annoted with both `auto-imported` and `guard-bif`.

BIFs can fail for various reasons. All BIFs fail with reason `badarg` if they
are called with arguments of an incorrect type. The other reasons are described
in the description of each individual BIF.

The time unit used by erlang time APIs.

Supported time unit representations:

- **`PartsPerSecond :: integer() >= 1`** - Time unit expressed in parts per
  second. That is, the time unit equals `1/PartsPerSecond` second.

- **`second`** - Symbolic representation of the time unit represented by the
  integer `1`.

- **`millisecond`** - Symbolic representation of the time unit represented by
  the integer `1000`.

- **`microsecond`** - Symbolic representation of the time unit represented by
  the integer `1000_000`.

- **`nanosecond`** - Symbolic representation of the time unit represented by the
  integer `1000_000_000`.

- **`native`** - Symbolic representation of the native time unit used by the
  Erlang runtime system.

  The `native` time unit is determined at runtime system start, and remains the
  same until the runtime system terminates. If a runtime system is stopped and
  then started again (even on the same machine), the `native` time unit of the
  new runtime system instance can differ from the `native` time unit of the old
  runtime system instance.

  One can get an approximation of the `native` time unit by calling
  [`erlang:convert_time_unit(1, second, native)`](`convert_time_unit/3`). The
  result equals the number of whole `native` time units per second. If the
  number of `native` time units per second does not add up to a whole number,
  the result is rounded downwards.

  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > The value of the `native` time unit gives you more or less no information
  > about the quality of time values. It sets a limit for the
  > [resolution](time_correction.md#time-resolution) and for the
  > [precision](time_correction.md#time-precision) of time values, but it gives
  > no information about the [accuracy](time_correction.md#time-accuracy) of
  > time values. The resolution of the `native` time unit and the resolution of
  > time values can differ significantly.

- **`perf_counter`** - Symbolic representation of the performance counter time
  unit used by the Erlang runtime system.

  The `perf_counter` time unit behaves much in the same way as the `native` time
  unit. That is, it can differ between runtime restarts. To get values of this
  type, call `os:perf_counter/0`.

- **`t:deprecated_time_unit/0`** -
  Deprecated symbolic representations kept for backwards-compatibility.

The `t:time_unit/0` type can be extended. To convert time values between time
units, use [`erlang:convert_time_unit/3`](`convert_time_unit/3`).

Returns the atom whose text representation is `Binary` provided that such

The Erlang system has a [configurable
limit](`e:system:system_limits.md#atoms`) for the total number of
atoms that can exist. Once an atom is created, it cannot be
deleted. Therefore, it is not safe to create many atoms from binaries
that come from an untrusted source (for example, a file fetched from
the Internet), for example, using `binary_to_atom/2`. This function is
thus the appropriate option when the input binary comes from an
untrusted source.

An atom exists in an Erlang system when included in a loaded Erlang module or
when created programmatically (for example, by
[`binary_to_atom/2`](`binary_to_atom/2`)). See the next note for an example of
when an atom exists in the source code for an Erlang module but not in the
compiled version of the same module.

Failure: `badarg` if the atom does not exist.

Equivalent to [`binary_to_term(Binary)`](`binary_to_term/1`), but can be configured to
fit special purposes.

The allowed options are:

- **`safe`** - Use this option when receiving binaries from an untrusted source.

  When enabled, it prevents decoding data that can be used to attack the Erlang
  runtime. In the event of receiving unsafe data, decoding fails with a `badarg`
  error.

  The `safe` option prevents direct and indirect creation of new atoms
  (such as those embedded in certain structures like process
  identifiers) and creation of new external function references. None
  of these resources are garbage collected, so unchecked creation can
  exhaust available memory.

Cancels a timer that has been created by [`erlang:start_timer`](`start_timer/4`)
or [`erlang:send_after`](`send_after/4`). `TimerRef` identifies the timer, and
was returned by the BIF that created the timer.

`Option`s:

- **`{async, Async}`** - Asynchronous request for cancellation. `Async` defaults
  to `false`, which causes the cancellation to be performed synchronously. When
  `Async` is set to `true`, the cancel operation is performed asynchronously.
  That is, `cancel_timer()` sends an asynchronous request for cancellation to
  the timer service that manages the timer, and then returns `ok`.

- **`{info, Info}`** - Requests information about the `Result` of the
  cancellation. `Info` defaults to `true`, which means the `Result` is given.
  When `Info` is set to `false`, no information about the result of the
  cancellation is given.

  - When `Async` is `false`: if `Info` is `true`, the `Result` is returned by
    `erlang:cancel_timer()`. otherwise `ok` is returned.
  - When `Async` is `true`: if `Info` is `true`, a message on the form
    `{cancel_timer, TimerRef, Result}` is sent to the caller of
    `erlang:cancel_timer()` when the cancellation operation has been performed,
    otherwise no message is sent.

More `Option`s may be added in the future.

If `Result` is an integer, it represents the time in milliseconds left until the
canceled timer would have expired.

If `Result` is `false`, a timer corresponding to `TimerRef` could not be found.
This can be either because the timer had expired, already had been canceled, or
because `TimerRef` never corresponded to a timer. Even if the timer had expired,
it does not tell you if the time-out message has arrived at its destination yet.

Checks if the node local process identified by `Pid` executes old code for

`Option`s:

  performing the operation. If `{allow_gc, false}` is passed, and a garbage
  collection is needed to determine the result of the operation, the operation
  is aborted (see information on `CheckResult` below). The default is to allow
  garbage collection, that is, `{allow_gc, true}`.

- **`{async, RequestId}`** - The function
  [`check_process_code/3`](`check_process_code/3`) returns the value `async`
  immediately after the request has been sent. When the request has been
  processed, the process that called this function is passed a message on the
  form `{check_process_code, RequestId, CheckResult}`.

If `Pid` equals `self/0`, and no `async` option has been passed, the operation
is performed at once. Otherwise a request for the operation is sent to the
process identified by `Pid`, and is handled when appropriate. If no `async`
option has been passed, the caller blocks until `CheckResult` is available and
can be returned.

`CheckResult` informs about the result of the request as follows:

- **`true`** - The process identified by `Pid` executes old code for `Module`.
  That is, the current call of the process executes old code for this module, or
  the process has references to old code for this module, or the process
  contains funs that references old code for this module.

- **`false`** - The process identified by `Pid` does not execute old code for
  `Module`.

- **`aborted`** - The operation was aborted, as the process needed to be garbage
  collected to determine the operation result, and the operation was requested
  by passing option `{allow_gc, false}`.

>
> As of ERTS version 9.0, the check process code operation only checks for

  is stripped off when the packet is returned.

- **`line`** - A packet is a line-terminated by a delimiter byte, default is the
  latin-1 newline character. The delimiter byte is included in the returned
  packet unless the line was truncated according to option `line_length`.

- **`asn1 | cdr | sunrm | fcgi | tpkt`** - The header is _not_ stripped off.

  The meanings of the packet types are as follows:

  - **`asn1` \- ASN.1 BER**

  - **`sunrm` \- Sun's RPC encoding**

  - **`cdr` \- CORBA (GIOP 1.1)**

  - **`fcgi` \- Fast CGI**

  - **`tpkt` \- TPKT format \[RFC1006]**

- **`http | httph | http_bin | httph_bin`** - The Hypertext Transfer Protocol.
  The packets are returned with the format according to `HttpPacket` described
  earlier. A packet is either a request, a response, a header, or an end of
  header mark. Invalid lines are returned as `HttpError`.

  Recognized request methods and header fields are returned as atoms. Others are
  returned as strings. Strings of unrecognized header fields are formatted with
  only capital letters first and after hyphen characters, for example,
  `"Sec-Websocket-Key"`. Header field names are also returned in
  `UnmodifiedField` as strings, without any conversion or formatting.

  The protocol type `http` is only to be used for the first line when an
  `HttpRequest` or an `HttpResponse` is expected. The following calls are to use
  `httph` to get `HttpHeader`s until `http_eoh` is returned, which marks the end
  of the headers and the beginning of any following message body.

  The variants `http_bin` and `httph_bin` return strings (`HttpString`) as
  binaries instead of lists.

  Since OTP 26.0, `Host` may be an IPv6 address enclosed in `[]`, as defined in
  [RFC2732 ](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2732.txt).

Options:

- **`{packet_size, integer() >= 0}`** - Sets the maximum allowed size of the
  packet body. If the packet header indicates that the length of the packet is
  longer than the maximum allowed length, the packet is considered invalid.
  Defaults to 0, which means no size limit.

- **`{line_length, integer() >= 0}`** - For packet type `line`, lines longer
  than the indicated length are truncated.

  Option `line_length` also applies to `http*` packet types as an alias for
  option `packet_size` if `packet_size` itself is not set. This use is only
  intended for backward compatibility.

- **`{line_delimiter, 0 =< byte() =< 255}`** - For packet type `line`, sets the
  delimiting byte. Default is the latin-1 character `$\n`.

Create an alias which can be used when sending messages to the process that

Currently available options for [`alias/1`](`alias/1`):

- **`explicit_unalias`** - The alias can only be deactivated via a call to
  [`unalias/1`](`unalias/1`). This is also the default behaviour if no options

- **`reply`** - The alias will be automatically deactivated when a reply message
  sent via the alias is received. The alias can also still be deactivated via a
  call to [`unalias/1`](`unalias/1`).

- **`priority`** - [](){: #priority_alias } Since OTP 28.0

  The alias can be used for sending
  [priority messages](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#priority-messages`) to the

the stacktrace. The information given in the `ErrorInfoMap` is to be used by
error formatters such as [`erl_error`](`erl_error:format_exception/4`) to
provide more context around an error.

The default `module` of the `ErrorInfoMap` is the module that the call to
`error/3` is made. The default `function` is `format_error`. See
[`format_error/2`](`c:erl_error:format_error/2`) for more details on how this
Module:Function/2 is to be used

The intent of the exception class `error` is to signal that an unexpected error
has happened (for example, a function is called with a parameter that has an
incorrect type). See the guide about

Raises an exception of class `exit` with exit reason `Reason`.

As evaluating this function causes an exception to be raised, it has no return value.

The intent of the exception class `exit` is that the current process should be
stopped (for example when a message telling a process to stop is received).

This function differ from [`error/1,2,3`](`error/1`) by causing an exception of
a different class and by having a reason that does not include the list of

%% exit/2

Sends an exit signal with exit reason `Reason` to the process or port identified
by `Dest`. If `Dest` is a reference, the exit signal will *only* affect the
identified process if the reference is an active
[process alias](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#process-aliases`) of a process
executing on an OTP 28.0 node or newer.

The following behavior applies if `Reason` is any term, except `normal` or
`kill`, and `P` is the process or port identified by `Dest`:

- If `P` is not [trapping exits](`process_flag/2`), `P` exits with exit reason
  `Reason`.
- If `P` is [trapping exits](`process_flag/2`), the exit signal is transformed
  into a message `{'EXIT', From, Reason}`, where `From` is the process
  identifier of the process that sent the exit signal, and delivered to the
  message queue of `P`.

The following behavior applies if `Reason` is the term `normal` and `Dest` is the
identifier of a process `P` which is not the same as the process that invoked
`erlang:exit(Dest, normal)` (the behavior when a process sends a signal with the
`normal` reason to itself is described in the warning):

- If `P` is [trapping exits](`process_flag/2`), the exit signal is transformed
  into a message `{'EXIT', From, normal}`, where `From` is the process
  identifier of the process that sent the exit signal, and delivered to `P`'s
  message queue.
- The signal has no effect if `P` is not trapping exits.

If `Reason` is the atom `kill`, that is, if [`exit(Dest, kill)`](`exit/2`) is
called, an untrappable exit signal is sent to the process that is identified by
`Dest`, which unconditionally exits with exit reason `killed`. The exit reason is
changed from `kill` to `killed` to hint to linked processes that the killed
process got killed by a call to [`exit(Dest, kill)`](`exit/2`).

> #### Note {: .info }
>
> The functions [`erlang:exit/1`](`exit/1`) and [`erlang:exit/2`](`exit/2`) are

> exception that can be caught while `erlang:exit/2` does not cause any
> exception to be raised.

> #### Warning {: .warning }

Returns a string corresponding to the text representation of `Float` using fixed

- If option `decimals` is specified, the returned value contains at most

- If option `compact` is specified, the trailing zeros at the end of the list

  notation with `Decimals` digits of precision.
- If option `short` is specified, the float is formatted with the smallest
  number of digits that still guarantees that
  `F =:= list_to_float(float_to_list(F, [short]))`. When the float is inside the
  range (-2⁵³, 2⁵³), the notation that yields the smallest number of characters
  is used (scientific notation or normal decimal notation). Floats outside the
  range (-2⁵³, 2⁵³) are always formatted using scientific notation to avoid
  confusing results when doing arithmetic operations.

Every process is a member of some process group and all groups have a _group

Initially, at system startup, `init` is both its own group leader and the group
leader of all processes. During the boot of a system the group leader for
processes will be changed depending on the need of the system. Some examples
where this is done are:

- When an application is started, the top supervisor of that application will
  have its group leader set to the application master. See `application:start/2`
  for more details.
- When running tests, both [`common_test`](`e:common_test:index.html`) and
  `m:eunit` set the group leader in order to capture any I/O from the testcase.
- The [interactive shell](`m:shell`) sets the group leader to intercept I/O.

Sets the group leader of `Pid` to `GroupLeader`. Typically, this is used when a

application master.

Halt the runtime system.

  Halt the runtime system with status code `Status`.

  > #### Note {: .info }

  > On many platforms, the OS supports only status codes 0-255. A too large
  > status code is truncated by clearing the high bits.

  Currently the following options are valid:

  - **`{flush, EnableFlushing}`{: #halt_flush }** - If `EnableFlushing` equals
    `true`, which also is the default behavior, the runtime system will perform
    the following operations before terminating:

    - Flush all outstanding output.
    - Send all Erlang ports exit signals and wait for them to exit.
    - Wait for all async threads to complete all outstanding async jobs.
    - Call all installed [NIF _on halt_ callbacks](erl_nif.md#on_halt).
    - Wait for all ongoing
      [NIF calls with the _delay halt_ setting](erl_nif.md#delay_halt) enabled
      to return.
    - Call all installed `atexit`/`on_exit` callbacks.

    If `EnableFlushing` equals `false`, the runtime system will terminate
    immediately without performing any of the above listed operations.

    > #### Change {: .info }
    >
    > Runtime systems prior to OTP 26.0 called all installed `atexit`/`on_exit`
    > callbacks also when `flush` was disabled, but as of OTP 26.0 this is no

  - **`{flush_timeout, Timeout :: 0..2147483647 | infinity}`{: #halt_flush_timeout }** -
    Sets a limit on the time allowed for [flushing](#halt_flush) prior to
    termination of the runtime system. `Timeout` is in milliseconds. The default
    value is determined by the the `erl` [`+zhft <Timeout>`](erl_cmd.md#+zhft)
    command line flag.

    If flushing has been ongoing for `Timeout` milliseconds, flushing operations
    will be interrupted and the runtime system will immediately be terminated
    with the exit code `255`. If flushing is not enabled, the timeout will have
    no effect on the system.

    See also the `erl` [`+zhft <Timeout>`](erl_cmd.md#+zhft) command line flag.
    Note that the shortest timeout set by the command line flag and the
    `flush_timeout` option will be the actual timeout value in effect.

- ```erlang
  halt(Abort :: abort, Options :: halt_options())

  {: #halt_abort_2 }

  Halt the Erlang runtime system by aborting and produce a core dump if core
  dumping has been enabled in the environment that the runtime system is
  executing in.

  > #### Note {: .info }

-doc """
Puts the calling process into a wait state where its memory allocation has been
reduced as much as possible. This is useful if the process does not expect to
receive any messages soon.

The process is awakened when a message is sent to it, and control resumes in
`Module:Function` with the arguments specified by `Args` with the call stack
emptied, meaning that the process terminates when that function returns. Thus
`erlang:hibernate/3` never returns to its caller. The resume function
`Module:Function/Arity` must be exported (`Arity` =:=
[`length(Args)`](`length/1`)).

If the process has any message in its message queue, the process is awakened
immediately in the same way as described earlier.

In more technical terms, `erlang:hibernate/3` discards the call stack for the
process, and then garbage collects the process. After this, all live data is in
one continuous heap. The heap is then shrunken to the exact same size as the
live data that it holds (even if that size is less than the minimum heap size
for the process).

If the size of the live data in the process is less than the minimum heap size,
the first garbage collection occurring after the process is awakened ensures
that the heap size is changed to a size not smaller than the minimum heap size.

Notice that emptying the call stack means that any surrounding `catch` is
removed and must be re-inserted after hibernation. One effect of this is that
processes started using `proc_lib` (also indirectly, such as `gen_server`
processes), are to use `proc_lib:hibernate/3` instead, to ensure that the
exception handler continues to work when the process wakes up.

Sets up and activates a link between the calling process and another process or

We will from here on call the identified process or port linkee. If the linkee

If one of the participants of a link terminates, it will
[send an exit signal](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#sending_exit_signals`) to
the other participant. The exit signal will contain the
[exit reason](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#link_exit_signal_reason`) of the
terminated participant. Other cases when exit signals are triggered due to a
link are when no linkee exist (`noproc` exit reason) and when the connection
between linked processes on different nodes is lost or cannot be established
(`noconnection` exit reason).

An existing link can be removed by calling `unlink/1`. For more information on
links and exit signals due to links, see the _Processes_ chapter in the _Erlang
Reference Manual_:

- [Links](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#links`)
- [Sending Exit Signals](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#sending_exit_signals`)
- [Receiving Exit Signals](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#receiving_exit_signals`)

For historical reasons, [`link/1`](`link/1`) has a strange semi-synchronous
behavior when it is "cheap" to check if the linkee exists or not, and the caller
does not [trap exits](#process_flag_trap_exit). If the above is true
and the linkee does not exist, [`link/1`](`link/1`) will raise a `noproc` error
_exception_. The expected behavior would instead have been that
[`link/1`](`link/1`) returned `true`, and the caller later was sent an exit
signal with `noproc` exit reason, but this is unfortunately not the case. The
`noproc` [exception](`e:system:errors.md#exceptions`) is not to be confused with
an [exit signal](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#sending_exit_signals`) with exit
reason `noproc`. Currently it is "cheap" to check if the linkee exists when it
is supposed to reside on the same node as the calling process.

The link setup and activation is performed asynchronously. If the link already
exists, or if the caller attempts to create a link to itself, nothing is done. A
detailed description of the [link protocol](erl_dist_protocol.md#link_protocol)
can be found in the _Distribution Protocol_ chapter of the _ERTS User's Guide_.

Sends a monitor request of type `Type` to the entity identified by `Item`.

If the monitored entity does not exist or it changes monitored state, the caller
of `monitor/2` is notified by a message on the following format:
{: #monitor_message}

```erlang
{Tag, MonitorRef, Type, Object, Info}
```

> #### Note {: .info }
>
> The monitor request is an asynchronous signal. That is, it takes time before
> the signal reaches its destination.

`Type` can be one of the following atoms: `process`, `port` or `time_offset`.

A `process` or `port` monitor is triggered only once, after that it is removed
from both monitoring process and the monitored entity. Monitors are fired when
the monitored process or port terminates, does not exist at the moment of
creation, or if the connection to it is lost. If the connection to it is lost,
we do not know if it still exists. The monitoring is also turned off when
`demonitor/1` is called.

A `process` or `port` monitor by name resolves the `RegisteredName` to `t:pid/0`
or `t:port/0` only once at the moment of monitor instantiation, later changes to
the name registration will not affect the existing monitor.

When a `process` or `port` monitor is triggered, a `'DOWN'` message is sent that
has the following pattern:

```erlang
{'DOWN', MonitorRef, Type, Object, Info}
```

In the monitor message `MonitorRef` and `Type` are the same as described
earlier, and:

- **`Object`** - The monitored entity, which triggered the event. When
  monitoring a process or a local port, `Object` will be equal to the `t:pid/0`
  or `t:port/0` that was being monitored. When monitoring process or port by
  name, `Object` will have format `{RegisteredName, Node}` where
  `RegisteredName` is the name which has been used with
  `monitor/2` call and `Node` is local or remote node name (for
  ports monitored by name, `Node` is always local node name).

- **`Info`** - Either the exit reason of the process, `noproc` (process or port
  did not exist at the time of monitor creation), or `noconnection` (no
  connection to the node where the monitored process resides).

- **Monitoring a `process`{: #monitor_process }** - Creates monitor between the
  current process and another process identified by `Item`, which can be a
  `t:pid/0` (local or remote), an atom `RegisteredName` or a tuple
  `{RegisteredName, Node}` for a registered process, located elsewhere.

  > #### Change {: .info }
  >
  > Before ERTS 10.0 (OTP 21.0), monitoring a process could fail with `badarg`
  > if the monitored process resided on a primitive node (such as erl_interface
  > or jinterface), where remote process monitoring is not implemented.
  >
  > Now, such a call to `monitor` will instead succeed and a monitor is created.
  > But the monitor will only supervise the connection. That is, a
  > `{'DOWN', _, process, _, noconnection}` is the only message that may be
  > received, as the primitive node has no way of reporting the status of the
  > monitored process.

- **Monitoring a `port`{: #monitor_port }** - Creates monitor between the
  current process and a port identified by `Item`, which can be a `t:port/0`
  (only local), an atom `RegisteredName` or a tuple `{RegisteredName, Node}` for
  a registered port, located on this node. Note, that attempt to monitor a
  remote port will result in `badarg`.

  Available since OTP 19.0.

- **Monitoring a `time_offset`{: #monitor_time_offset }** - Monitors changes in
  `time_offset/0` between
  [Erlang monotonic time](time_correction.md#erlang-monotonic-time) and
  [Erlang system time](time_correction.md#erlang-system-time). One valid `Item`
  exists in combination with the `time_offset Type`, namely the atom
  `clock_service`. Notice that the atom `clock_service` is _not_ the registered
  name of a process. In this case it serves as an identifier of the runtime
  system internal clock service at current runtime system instance.

  The monitor is triggered when the time offset is changed. This either if the
  time offset value is changed, or if the offset is changed from preliminary to
  final during
  [finalization of the time offset](#system_flag_time_offset) when the
  [single time warp mode](time_correction.md#single-time-warp-mode) is used.
  When a change from preliminary to final time offset is made, the monitor is
  triggered once regardless of whether the time offset value was changed or not.

  If the runtime system is in
  [multi time warp mode](time_correction.md#multi-time-warp-mode), the time
  offset is changed when the runtime system detects that the
  [OS system time](time_correction.md#os-system-time) has changed. The runtime
  system does, however, not detect this immediately when it occurs. A task
  checking the time offset is scheduled to execute at least once a minute, so
  under normal operation this is to be detected within a minute, but during
  heavy load it can take longer time.

  The monitor is _not_ automatically removed after it has been triggered. That
  is, repeated changes of the time offset trigger the monitor repeatedly.

  When the monitor is triggered a `'CHANGE'` message is sent to the monitoring
  process. A `'CHANGE'` message has the following pattern:

  ```erlang
  {'CHANGE', MonitorRef, Type, Item, NewTimeOffset}
  ```

  where `MonitorRef`, `Type`, and `Item` are the same as described above, and
  `NewTimeOffset` is the new time offset.

  When the `'CHANGE'` message has been received you are guaranteed not to
  retrieve the old time offset when calling
  `erlang:time_offset/0`. Notice that you can observe the
  change of the time offset when calling `erlang:time_offset/0` before you get
  the `'CHANGE'` message.

  Available since OTP 18.0.

Making several calls to `monitor/2` for the same `Item` and/or
`Type` is not an error; it results in as many independent monitoring instances.

The monitor functionality is expected to be extended. That is, other `Type`s and
`Item`s are expected to be supported in a future release.

%% monitor/3
-doc """
Provides an option list for modification of monitoring functionality provided by
`monitor/2`. The `Type` and `Item` arguments have the same meaning as when
passed to [`monitor/2`](`monitor/2`).

Currently available options:

- **`{alias, UnaliasOpt}`** - The returned monitor reference will also become an
  alias for the calling process. That is, the returned reference can be used for
  sending messages to the calling process. See also `alias/0`. The `UnaliasOpt`
  determines how the alias should be deactivated.

  - **`explicit_unalias`** - Only an explicit call to `unalias/1` will
    deactivate the alias.

  - **`demonitor`** - The alias will be automatically deactivated when the
    monitor is removed. This either via an explicit call to `demonitor/1` or
    when it is automatically removed at the same time as a `'DOWN'` message is
    delivered due to the monitor. The alias can also still be deactivated via a
    call to [`unalias/1`](`unalias/1`).

  - **`reply_demonitor`** - The alias will be automatically deactivated when the
    monitor is removed (see `demonitor` option above) or a reply message sent
    via the alias is received. When a reply message is received via the alias
    the monitor will also be automatically removed. This is useful in
    client/server scenarios when a client monitors the server and will get the
    reply via the alias. Once the response is received both the alias and the
    monitor will be automatically removed regardless of whether the response is
    a reply or a `'DOWN'` message. The alias can also still be deactivated via a
    call to [`unalias/1`](`unalias/1`). Note that if the alias is removed using
    the [`unalias/1`](`unalias/1`) BIF, the monitor will still be left active.

  Example:

  ```erlang
  server() ->
      receive
          {request, AliasReqId, Request} ->
              Result = perform_request(Request),
              AliasReqId ! {reply, AliasReqId, Result}
      end,
      server().

  client(ServerPid, Request) ->
      AliasMonReqId = monitor(process, ServerPid, [{alias, reply_demonitor}]),
      ServerPid ! {request, AliasMonReqId, Request},
      %% Alias as well as monitor will be automatically deactivated if we
      %% receive a reply or a 'DOWN' message since we used 'reply_demonitor'
      %% as unalias option...
      receive
          {reply, AliasMonReqId, Result} ->
              Result;
          {'DOWN', AliasMonReqId, process, ServerPid, ExitReason} ->
              error(ExitReason)
      end.
  ```

  Note that both the server and the client in this example must be executing on
  at least OTP 24 systems in order for this to work.

  For more information on process aliases see the
  [_Process Aliases_](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#process-aliases`) section
  of the _Erlang Reference Manual_.

- **`{tag, UserDefinedTag}`** - Replace the default `Tag` with `UserDefinedTag`
  in the [monitor message](#monitor_message) delivered when the
  monitor is triggered. For example, when monitoring a process, the `'DOWN'` tag
  in the down message will be replaced by `UserDefinedTag`.

  An example of how the `{tag, UserDefinedTag}` option can be used in order to
  enable the new
  [selective receive optimization](`e:system:eff_guide_processes.md#receiving-messages`),
  introduced in OTP 24, when making multiple requests to different servers:

  ```erlang
  server() ->
      receive
          {request, From, ReqId, Request} ->
              Result = perform_request(Request),
              From ! {reply, self(), ReqId, Result}
      end,
      server().

  client(ServerPids, Request) when is_list(ServerPids) ->
      ReqId = make_ref(),
      lists:foreach(fun (ServerPid) ->
                            _ = monitor(process, ServerPid,
                                        [{tag, {'DOWN', ReqId}}]),
                            ServerPid ! {request, self(), ReqId, Request}
                    end,
                    ServerPids),
      receive_replies(ReqId, length(ServerPids), []).

  receive_replies(_ReqId, 0, Acc) ->
      Acc;
  receive_replies(ReqId, N, Acc) ->
      %% The compiler will detect that we match on the 'ReqId'
      %% reference in all clauses, and will enable the selective
      %% receive optimization which makes the receive able to
      %% skip past all messages present in the message queue at
      %% the time when the 'ReqId' reference was created...
      Res = receive
                {reply, ServerPid, ReqId, Result} ->
                    %% Here we typically would have deactivated the
                    %% monitor by a call to demonitor(Mon, [flush]) but
                    %% we ignore this in this example for simplicity...
                    {ok, ServerPid, Result};
                {{'DOWN', ReqId}, _Mon, process, ServerPid, ExitReason} ->
                    {error, ServerPid, ExitReason}
            end,
      receive_replies(ReqId, N-1, [Res | Acc]).
  ```

  In order for this example to work as intended, the client must be executing on
  at least an OTP 24 system, but the servers may execute on older systems.

- **`priority`** - Since OTP 28.0

  [Enables priority message reception](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#enable-prio-msg-recv`)
  of the monitor message(s) sent when this monitor is triggered for the calling
  process.

Generates and returns an

The integer is unique in the sense that this BIF, using the same set of
modifiers, does not return the same integer more than once on the current
runtime system instance. Each integer value can of course be constructed by
other means.

By default, when `[]` is passed as `ModifierList`, both negative and positive
integers can be returned. This to use the range of integers that do not need
heap memory allocation as much as possible. By default the returned integers are
also only guaranteed to be unique, that is, any returned integer can be smaller
or larger than previously returned integers.

`Modifier`s:

- **positive** - Returns only positive integers.

  Notice that by passing the `positive` modifier you will get heap allocated
  integers (bignums) quicker.

- **monotonic** - Returns
  [strictly monotonically increasing](time_correction.md#strictly-monotonically-increasing)
  integers corresponding to creation time. That is, the integer returned is
  always larger than previously returned integers on the current runtime system
  instance.

  These values can be used to determine order between events on the runtime
  system instance. That is, if both `X = erlang:unique_integer([monotonic])` and
  `Y = erlang:unique_integer([monotonic])` are executed by different processes
  (or the same process) on the same runtime system instance and `X < Y`, we know
  that `X` was created before `Y`.

This format is the same as `os:timestamp/0` and the deprecated [`erlang:now/0`](`now/0`) use.
The reason for the existence of `erlang:timestamp()` is purely to simplify use for existing
code that assumes this time stamp format. Current Erlang system time can more
efficiently be retrieved in the time unit of your choice using
[`erlang:system_time/1`](`system_time/1`).

The `erlang:timestamp()` BIF is equivalent to:

```c
timestamp() ->

    MegaSecs = ErlangSystemTime div 1000_000_000_000,

`Reason` can be any term.

`Stacktrace` is a list as provided in a try-catch clause.

```erlang

Element `ExtraInfo` at the end is optional. Omitting it is equivalent to
specifying an empty list.

The stacktrace is used as the exception stacktrace for the calling process; it
is truncated to the current maximum stacktrace depth.

Reads the state of a timer that has been created by either

`Options`:

- **`{async, Async}`** - Asynchronous request for state information. `Async`
  defaults to `false`, which causes the operation to be performed synchronously.
  In this case, the `Result` is returned by `erlang:read_timer`. When `Async` is
  `true`, `erlang:read_timer` sends an asynchronous request for the state
  information to the timer service that manages the timer, and then returns
  `ok`. A message on the format `{read_timer, TimerRef, Result}` is sent to the

More `Option`s can be added in the future.

If `Result` is an integer, it represents the time in milliseconds left until the
timer expires.

If `Result` is `false`, a timer corresponding to `TimerRef` could not be found.
This because the timer had expired, or been canceled, or because `TimerRef`

Starts a timer. When the timer expires, the message `{timeout, TimerRef, Msg}`

`Option`s:

- **`{abs, false}`** - This is the default. It means the `Time` value is
  interpreted as a time in milliseconds _relative_ current
  [Erlang monotonic time](time_correction.md#erlang-monotonic-time).

- **`{abs, true}`** - Absolute `Time` value. The `Time` value is interpreted as
  an absolute Erlang monotonic time in milliseconds.

More `Option`s can be added in the future.

The absolute point in time, the timer is set to expire on, must be in the
interval
`[ `[erlang:convert_time_unit](`convert_time_unit/3`)`(`[erlang:system_info](#system_info_start_time)`(start_time), native, millisecond), `[erlang:convert_time_unit](`convert_time_unit/3`)`(`[erlang:system_info](#system_info_end_time)`(end_time), native, millisecond) ]`.
If a relative time is specified, the `Time` value is not allowed to be negative.

If `Dest` is a `t:pid/0`, it must be a `t:pid/0` of a process created on the
current runtime system instance. This process has either terminated or not. If
`Dest` is an `t:atom/0`, it is interpreted as the name of a locally registered
process. The process referred to by the name is looked up at the time of timer
expiration. No error is returned if the name does not refer to a process.

If `Dest` is a `t:pid/0`, the timer is automatically canceled if the process
referred to by the `t:pid/0` is not alive, or if the process exits. This feature

%% suspend_process/2
-doc """
Increases the suspend count on the process identified by `Suspendee` and puts it
in the suspended state if it is not already in that state. A suspended process
is not scheduled for execution until the process has been resumed. If the
suspended process currently is waiting in a `receive ... after` expression, the
timer for the timeout will, as of OTP 28.0, also be suspended until the process
is resumed.

A process can be suspended by multiple processes and can be suspended multiple
times by a single process. A suspended process does not leave the suspended
state until its suspend count reaches zero. The suspend count of `Suspendee` is
decreased when [`erlang:resume_process(Suspendee)`](`resume_process/1`) is
called by the same process that called `erlang:suspend_process(Suspendee)`. All
increased suspend counts on other processes acquired by a process are
automatically decreased when the process terminates.

Options (`Opt`s):

- **`asynchronous`** - A suspend request is sent to the process identified by
  `Suspendee`. `Suspendee` eventually suspends unless it is resumed before it
  could suspend. The caller of `erlang:suspend_process/2` returns immediately,
  regardless of whether `Suspendee` has suspended yet or not. The point in time
  when `Suspendee` suspends cannot be deduced from other events in the system.
  It is only guaranteed that `Suspendee` _eventually_ suspends (unless it is
  resumed). If no `asynchronous` options has been passed, the caller of
  `erlang:suspend_process/2` is blocked until `Suspendee` has suspended.

- **`{asynchronous, ReplyTag}`** - A suspend request is sent to the process
  identified by `Suspendee`. When the suspend request has been processed, a
  reply message is sent to the caller of this function. The reply is on the form
  `{ReplyTag, State}` where `State` is either:

  - **`exited`** - `Suspendee` has exited.

  - **`suspended`** - `Suspendee` is now suspended.

  - **`not_suspended`** - `Suspendee` is not suspended. This can only happen
    when the process that issued this request, have called
    [`resume_process(Suspendee)`](`resume_process/1`) before getting the reply.

  Apart from the reply message, the `{asynchronous, ReplyTag}` option behaves
  exactly the same as the `asynchronous` option without reply tag.

- **`unless_suspending`** - The process identified by `Suspendee` is suspended
  unless the calling process already is suspending `Suspendee`. If
  `unless_suspending` is combined with option `asynchronous`, a suspend request
  is sent unless the calling process already is suspending `Suspendee` or if a
  suspend request already has been sent and is in transit. If the calling
  process already is suspending `Suspendee`, or if combined with option
  `asynchronous` and a send request already is in transit, `false` is returned
  and the suspend count on `Suspendee` remains unchanged.

If the suspend count on the process identified by `Suspendee` is increased,
`true` is returned, otherwise `false`.

Calling this function makes sure all trace messages have been delivered.

The delivery of trace messages (generated by [`erlang:trace/3`](`trace/3`),
`m:seq_trace`, or [`erlang:system_profile/2`](`system_profile/2`)) is dislocated
on the time-line compared to other events in the system. If you know that
`Tracee` has passed some specific point in its execution, and you want to know
when at least all trace messages corresponding to events up to this point have
reached the tracer, use `erlang:trace_delivered(Tracee)`.

When it is guaranteed that all trace messages are delivered to the tracer up to
the point that `Tracee` reached at the time of the call to
`erlang:trace_delivered(Tracee)`, then a `{trace_delivered, Tracee, Ref}`
message is sent to the caller of `erlang:trace_delivered(Tracee)` .

Notice that message `trace_delivered` does _not_ imply that trace messages have
been delivered. Instead it implies that all trace messages that _are to be
delivered_ have been delivered. It is not an error if `Tracee` is not, and has
not been traced by someone, but if this is the case, _no_ trace messages have
been delivered when the `trace_delivered` message arrives.

Notice that `Tracee` must refer to a process currently or previously existing on
the same node as the caller of `erlang:trace_delivered(Tracee)` resides on. The
special `Tracee` atom `all` denotes all processes that currently are traced in
the node.

When used together with a [Tracer Module](`m:erl_tracer`), any message sent in
the trace callback is guaranteed to have reached its recipient before the

%% unlink/1
-doc """
Removes a link between the calling process and another process or a port

We will from here on call the identified process or port unlinkee.

A link can be set up using the `link/1` BIF. For more information on links and
exit signals due to links, see the _Processes_ chapter in the _Erlang Reference
Manual_:

- [Links](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#links`)
- [Sending Exit Signals](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#sending_exit_signals`)
- [Receiving Exit Signals](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#receiving_exit_signals`)

Once [`unlink(Id)`](`unlink/1`) has returned, it is guaranteed that the link
between the caller and the unlinkee has no effect on the caller in the future
(unless the link is setup again). Note that if the caller is
[trapping exits](#process_flag_trap_exit), an
`{'EXIT', Id, ExitReason}` message due to the link may have been placed in the
message queue of the caller before the [`unlink(Id)`](`unlink/1`) call
completed. Also note that the `{'EXIT', Id, ExitReason}` message may be the
result of the link, but may also be the result of the unlikee sending the caller
an exit signal by calling the `exit/2` BIF. Therefore, it may or may not be
appropriate to clean up the message queue after a call to
[`unlink(Id)`](`unlink/1`) as follows, when trapping exits:

```erlang
unlink(Id),
receive
    {'EXIT', Id, _} ->
        true
after 0 ->
        true
end
```

The link removal is performed asynchronously. If such a link does not exist,
nothing is done. A detailed description of the
[link protocol](erl_dist_protocol.md#link_protocol) can be found in the
_Distribution Protocol_ chapter of the _ERTS User's Guide_.

Loads and links a dynamic library containing native implemented functions (NIFs)
for a module.

`Path` is a file path to the shareable object/dynamic library file
minus the OS-dependent file extension (`.so` for Unix and `.dll` for Windows).
Notice that on most OSs the library has to have a different name on disc when an
upgrade of the nif is done. If the name is the same, but the contents differ,
the old library may be loaded instead. For information on how to implement a NIF
library, see [`erl_nif(3)`](erl_nif.md).

`LoadInfo` can be any term. It is passed on to the library as part of the
initialization. A good practice is to include a module version number to support
future code upgrade scenarios.

The call to [`load_nif/2`](`load_nif/2`) must be made _directly_ from the Erlang
code of the module that the NIF library belongs to. It returns either `ok`, or
`{error,{Reason,Text}}` if loading fails. `Reason` is one of the following atoms
while `Text` is a human readable string that can give more information about the
failure:

- **`load_failed`** - The OS failed to load the NIF library.

- **`bad_lib`** - The library did not fulfill the requirements as a NIF library
  of the calling module.

- **`load | upgrade`** - The corresponding library callback was unsuccessful.

- **`reload`** - A NIF library is already loaded for this module instance. The
  previously deprecated `reload` feature was removed in OTP 20.

- **`old_code`** - The call to [`load_nif/2`](`load_nif/2`) was made from the
  old code of a module that has been upgraded; this is not allowed.

If the [`-nifs()`](`e:system:modules.md#nifs_attribute`) attribute is used
(which is recommended), all NIFs in the dynamic library must be declared as such
for [`load_nif/2`](`load_nif/2`) to succeed. On the other hand, all functions
declared with the `-nifs()` attribute do not have to be implemented by the
dynamic library. This allows a target independent Erlang file to contain
fallback implementations for functions that may lack NIF support depending on
target OS/hardware platform.

Returns a port identifier as the result of opening a new Erlang port. A port can
be seen as an external Erlang process.

The name of the executable as well as the arguments specified in `cd`, `env`,
`args`, and `arg0` are subject to Unicode filename translation if the system is
running in Unicode filename mode. To avoid translation or to force, for example
UTF-8, supply the executable and/or arguments as a binary in the correct
encoding. For details, see the module `m:file`, the function
`file:native_name_encoding/0` in Kernel, and the
[`Using Unicode in Erlang`](`e:stdlib:unicode_usage.md`) User's Guide.

> #### Note {: .info }
>
> The characters in the name (if specified as a list) can only be > 255 if the
> Erlang virtual machine is started in Unicode filename translation mode.
> Otherwise the name of the executable is limited to the ISO Latin-1 character
> set.

`PortName`s:

- **`{spawn, Command}`** - Starts an external program. `Command` is the name of
  the external program to be run. `Command` runs outside the Erlang work space
  unless an Erlang driver with the name `Command` is found. If found, that
  driver is started. A driver runs in the Erlang work space, which means that it
  is linked with the Erlang runtime system.

  For external programs, `PATH` is searched (or an equivalent method is used to
  find programs, depending on the OS). This is done by invoking the shell on
  certain platforms. The first space-separated token of the command is
  considered as the name of the executable (or driver). This (among other
  things) makes this option unsuitable for running programs with spaces in
  filenames or directory names. If spaces in executable filenames are desired,
  use `{spawn_executable, Command}` instead.

  > #### Warning {: .warning }
  >
  > On Unix systems, arguments are passed to a new operating system process as
  > an array of strings but on Windows it is up to the child process to parse
  > them and some Windows programs may apply their own rules, which are
  > inconsistent with the standard C runtime `argv` parsing.
  >
  > This is particularly troublesome when invoking `.bat`, `.cmd`, or `.com`
  > files as these run implicitly through `cmd.exe`, whose argument parsing is
  > vulnerable to malicious input and can be used to run arbitrary shell
  > commands.
  >
  > Therefore, if you are running on Windows and you execute batch files or
  > `.com` applications, you must not pass untrusted input as arguments to the
  > program. This affects both `spawn` and `spawn_executable`.

- **`{spawn_executable, FileName}`** - Works like `{spawn, FileName}`, but only
  runs external executables. `FileName` in its whole is used as the name of the
  executable, including any spaces. If arguments are to be passed, the
  `PortSettings` `args` and `arg0` can be used.

  The shell is usually not invoked to start the program, it is executed
  directly. `PATH` (or equivalent) is not searched. To find a program in `PATH`
  to execute, use `os:find_executable/1`.

  Only if a shell script or `.bat` file is executed, the appropriate command
  interpreter is invoked implicitly, but there is still no command-argument
  expansion or implicit `PATH` search.

  If `FileName` cannot be run, an error exception is raised, with the POSIX
  error code as the reason. The error reason can differ between OSs. Typically
  the error `enoent` is raised when an attempt is made to run a program that is
  not found and `eacces` is raised when the specified file is not executable.

- **`{spawn_driver, Command}`** - Works like `{spawn, Command}`, but demands the
  first (space-separated) token of the command to be the name of a loaded
  driver. If no driver with that name is loaded, a `badarg` error is raised.

- **`{fd, In, Out}`** - Allows an Erlang process to access any currently opened
  file descriptors used by Erlang. The file descriptor `In` can be used for
  standard input, and the file descriptor `Out` for standard output. It is only
  used for various servers in the Erlang OS (`shell` and `user`). Hence, its use
  is limited.

`PortSettings` is a list of settings for the port. The valid settings are as
follows:

- **`{packet, N}`** - Messages are preceded by their length, sent in `N` bytes,
  with the most significant byte first. The valid values for `N` are 1, 2,
  and 4.

- **`stream`** - Output messages are sent without packet lengths. A user-defined
  protocol must be used between the Erlang process and the external object.

- **`{line, L}`** - Messages are delivered on a per line basis. Each line
  (delimited by the OS-dependent newline sequence) is delivered in a single
  message. The message data format is `{Flag, Line}`, where `Flag` is `eol` or
  `noeol`, and `Line` is the data delivered (without the newline sequence).

  `L` specifies the maximum line length in bytes. Lines longer than this are
  delivered in more than one message, with `Flag` set to `noeol` for all but the
  last message. If end of file is encountered anywhere else than immediately
  following a newline sequence, the last line is also delivered with `Flag` set
  to `noeol`. Otherwise lines are delivered with `Flag` set to `eol`.

  The `{packet, N}` and `{line, L}` settings are mutually exclusive.

- **`{cd, Dir}`** - Only valid for `{spawn, Command}` and
  `{spawn_executable, FileName}`. The external program starts using `Dir` as its
  working directory. `Dir` must be a string.

- **`{env, Env}`** - Only valid for `{spawn, Command}`, and `{spawn_executable, FileName}`.
  The environment of the started process is extended using the environment
  specifications in `Env`.

  `Env` is to be a list of tuples `{Name, Val}`, where `Name` is a `t:os:env_var_name/0`
  representing the name of an environment variable, and `Val` is a `t:os:env_var_name/0`
  representing the value it is to have in the spawned port process. Both `Name` and `Val` must
  be strings.

  If `Val` is set to the atom `false` or the empty string (that is `""` or `[]`), open_port
  will consider those variables unset just as if `os:unsetenv/1` had been called.

  For information about encoding requirements, see documentation of the types
  for `Name` and `Val`.

- **`{args, [ string() | binary() ]}`** - Only valid for
  `{spawn_executable, FileName}` and specifies arguments to the executable. Each
  argument is specified as a separate string and (on Unix) eventually ends up as
  one element each in the argument vector. On other platforms, a similar
  behavior is mimicked.

  The arguments are not expanded by the shell before they are supplied to the
  executable. Most notably this means that file wildcard expansion does not
  occur. To expand wildcards for the arguments, use `filelib:wildcard/1`. Notice
  that even if the program is a Unix shell script, meaning that the shell
  ultimately is invoked, wildcard expansion does not occur, and the script is
  provided with the untouched arguments. On Windows, wildcard expansion is
  always up to the program itself, therefore this is not an issue.

  The executable name (also known as `argv[0]`) is not to be specified in this
  list. The proper executable name is automatically used as `argv[0]`, where
  applicable.

  If you explicitly want to set the program name in the argument vector, option
  `arg0` can be used.

- **`{arg0, string() | binary()}`** - Only valid for
  `{spawn_executable, FileName}` and explicitly specifies the program name
  argument when running an executable. This can in some circumstances, on some
  OSs, be desirable. How the program responds to this is highly system-dependent
  and no specific effect is guaranteed.

- **`exit_status`** - Only valid for `{spawn, Command}`, where `Command` refers
  to an external program, and for `{spawn_executable, FileName}`.

  When the external process connected to the port exits, a message of the form
  `{Port,{exit_status,Status}}` is sent to the connected process, where `Status`
  is the exit status of the external process. If the program aborts on Unix, the
  same convention is used as the shells do (that is, 128+signal).

  If option `eof` is specified also, the messages `eof` and `exit_status` appear
  in an unspecified order.

- **`use_stdio`** - Only valid for `{spawn, Command}` and
  `{spawn_executable, FileName}`. It allows the standard input and output (file
  descriptors 0 and 1) of the spawned (Unix) process for communication with
  Erlang.

- **`nouse_stdio`** - The opposite of `use_stdio`. It uses file descriptors 3
  and 4 for communication with Erlang.

- **`stderr_to_stdout`** - Affects ports to external programs. The executed
  program gets its standard error file redirected to its standard output file.
  `stderr_to_stdout` and `nouse_stdio` are mutually exclusive.

- **`overlapped_io`** - Affects ports to external programs on Windows only. The
  standard input and standard output handles of the port program are, if this
  option is supplied, opened with flag `FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED`, so that the port
  program can (and must) do overlapped I/O on its standard handles. This is not
  normally the case for simple port programs, but an option of value for the
  experienced Windows programmer. _On all other platforms, this option is
  silently discarded._

- **`in`** - The port can only be used for input.

- **`out`** - The port can only be used for output.

- **`binary`** - All I/O from the port is binary data objects as opposed to
  lists of bytes.

- **`eof`** - The port is not closed at the end of the file and does not produce
  an exit signal. Instead, it remains open and a `{Port, eof}` message is sent
  to the process holding the port.

- **`hide`** - When running on Windows, suppresses creation of a new console
  window when spawning the port program. (This option has no effect on other
  platforms.)

- **`{parallelism, Boolean}`** - [](){: #open_port_parallelism } Sets scheduler
  hint for port parallelism. If set to `true`, the virtual machine schedules
  port tasks; when doing so, it improves parallelism in the system. If set to
  `false`, the virtual machine tries to perform port tasks immediately,
  improving latency at the expense of parallelism. The default can be set at
  system startup by passing command-line argument [`+spp`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bspp) to
  [erl](erl_cmd.md).

- **`{busy_limits_port, {Low, High} | disabled}`** - Sets limits that will be
  used for controlling the busy state of the port.

  When the ports internal output queue size becomes larger than or equal to
  `High` bytes, it enters the busy state. When it becomes less than `Low` bytes
  it leaves the busy state. When the port is in the busy state, processes
  sending commands to it will be suspended until the port leaves the busy state.
  Commands are in this context either `Port ! {Owner, {command, Data}}` or
  `port_command/[2,3]`.

  The `Low` limit is automatically adjusted to the same as `High` if it is set
  larger then `High`. Valid range of values for `Low` and `High` is
  `[1, (1 bsl (8*erlang:system_info(wordsize)))-2]`. If the atom `disabled` is
  passed, the port will never enter the busy state.

  The defaults are `Low = 4096` and `High = 8192`.

  _Note_ that this option is only valid when spawning an executable (port
  program) by opening the spawn driver and when opening the `fd` driver. This
  option will cause a failure with a `badarg` exception when opening other
  drivers.

- **`{busy_limits_msgq, {Low, High} | disabled}`** - Sets limits that will be
  used for controlling the busy state of the port message queue.

  When the ports message queue size becomes larger than or equal to `High` bytes
  it enters the busy state. When it becomes less than `Low` bytes it leaves the
  busy state. When the port message queue is in the busy state, processes
  sending commands to it will be suspended until the port message queue leaves
  the busy state. Commands are in this context either
  `Port ! {Owner, {command, Data}}` or `port_command/[2,3]`.

  The `Low` limit is automatically adjusted to the same as `High` if it is set
  larger then `High`. Valid range of values for `Low` and `High` is
  `[1, (1 bsl (8*erlang:system_info(wordsize)))-2]`. If the atom `disabled` is
  passed, the port message queue will never enter the busy state.

  _Note_ that if the driver statically has disabled the use of this feature, a
  failure with a `badarg` exception will be raised unless this option also is
  set to `disable` or not passed at all.

  The defaults are `Low = 4096` and `High = 8192` unless the driver itself does
  modifications of these values.

  _Note_ that the driver might fail if it also adjust these limits by itself and
  you have disabled this feature.

  The spawn driver (used when spawning an executable) and the `fd` driver do not
  disable this feature and do not adjust these limits by themselves.

  For more information see the documentation
  [`erl_drv_busy_msgq_limits()`](erl_driver.md#erl_drv_busy_msgq_limits).

Default is `stream` for all port types and `use_stdio` for spawned ports.

Failure: if the port cannot be opened, the exit reason is `badarg`,
`system_limit`, or the POSIX error code that most closely describes the error,
or `einval` if no POSIX code is appropriate:

- **`badarg`** - Bad input arguments to `open_port`.

- **`system_limit`** - All available ports in the Erlang emulator are in use.

- **`enomem`** - Not enough memory to create the port.

- **`eagain`** - No more available OS processes.

- **`enametoolong`** - Too long external command.

- **`emfile`** - No more available file descriptors (for the OS process that the
  Erlang emulator runs in).

- **`enfile`** - Full file table (for the entire OS).

- **`eacces`** - `Command` specified in `{spawn_executable, Command}` does not
  point out an executable file.

- **`enoent`** - `FileName` specified in `{spawn_executable, FileName}` does not
  point out an existing file.

During use of a port opened using `{spawn, Name}`, `{spawn_driver, Name}`, or
`{spawn_executable, Name}`, errors arising when sending messages to it are
reported to the owning process using signals of the form
`{'EXIT', Port, PosixCode}`. For the possible values of `PosixCode`, see
`m:file`.

The maximum number of ports that can be open at the same time can be configured
by passing command-line flag [`+Q`](erl_cmd.md#max_ports) to [erl](erl_cmd.md).

process_flag(Flag, Value)

Sets the process flag indicated to the specified value. Returns the previous value
of the flag.

`Flag` is one of the following:

- ```erlang
  process_flag(async_dist, boolean())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_async_dist }
  
  Enable or disable _fully asynchronous distributed signaling_ for the calling
  process. When disabled, which is the default, the process sending a distributed
  signal will block in the send operation if the buffer for the distribution
  channel reach the [distribution buffer busy limit](erl_cmd.md#%2Bzdbbl). The
  process will remain blocked until the buffer shrinks enough. This might in some
  cases take a substantial amount of time. When `async_dist` is enabled, send
  operations of distributed signals will always buffer the signal on the outgoing
  distribution channel and then immediately return. That is, these send operations
  will _never_ block the sending process.
  
  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > Since no flow control is enforced by the runtime system when `async_dist`
  > process flag is enabled, you need to make sure that flow control for such data
  > is implemented, or that the amount of such data is known to always be limited.
  > Unlimited signaling with `async_dist` enabled in the absence of flow control
  > will typically cause the sending runtime system to crash on an out of memory
  > condition.
  
  Blocking due to disabled `async_dist` can be monitored by
  [`trace:system()`](`trace:system/3`) using the
  [`busy_dist_port`](`m:trace#busy_dist_port`) option. Only data buffered by
  processes which (at the time of sending a signal) have disabled `async_dist`
  will be counted when determining whether or not an operation should block the
  caller.
  
  The `async_dist` flag can also be set on a new process when spawning it using
  the [`spawn_opt()`](`spawn_opt/4`) BIF with the option
  [`{async_dist, Enable}`](#spawn_opt_async_dist). The default
  `async_dist` flag to use on newly spawned processes can be set by passing the
  command line argument [`+pad <boolean>`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bpad) when starting the
  runtime system. If the `+pad <boolean>` command line argument is not passed, the
  default value of the `async_dist` flag will be `false`.
  
  You can inspect the state of the `async_dist` process flag of a process by
  calling [`process_info(Pid, async_dist)`](#process_info_async_dist).
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(trap_exit, boolean())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_trap_exit }
  
  When `trap_exit` is set to `true`, exit signals arriving to a process are
  converted to `{'EXIT', From, Reason}` messages, which can be received as
  ordinary messages. If `trap_exit` is set to `false`, the process exits if it
  receives an exit signal other than `normal` and the exit signal is propagated to
  its linked processes. Application processes are normally not to trap exits.
  
  See also `exit/2`.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(error_handler, module())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_error_handler }
  
  Used by a process to redefine the `m:error_handler` for undefined function calls and
  undefined registered processes. Use this flag with substantial caution, as code
  auto-loading depends on the correct operation of the error handling module.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(fullsweep_after,  non_neg_integer())
  ```
  
  Changes the maximum number of generational collections before forcing a
  fullsweep for the calling process.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(min_heap_size, non_neg_integer())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_min_heap_size }
  
  Changes the minimum heap size for the calling process.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(min_bin_vheap_size, non_neg_integer())
  ```
  
  Changes the minimum binary virtual heap size for the calling process.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(max_heap_size, max_heap_size())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_max_heap_size }
  
  This flag sets the maximum heap size for the calling process. If `MaxHeapSize`
  is an integer, the system default values for `kill` and `error_logger` are used.
  
  For details on how the heap grows, see
  [Sizing the heap](GarbageCollection.md#sizing-the-heap) in the ERTS internal
  documentation.
  
  - **`size`** - The maximum size in words of the process. If set to zero, the
    heap size limit is disabled. `badarg` is be thrown if the value is smaller
    than [`min_heap_size`](#process_flag_min_heap_size). The size check
    is only done when a garbage collection is triggered.
  
    `size` is the entire heap of the process when garbage collection is triggered.
    This includes all generational heaps, the process stack, any
    [messages that are considered to be part of the heap](#process_flag_message_queue_data),
    and any extra memory that the garbage collector needs during collection.
  
    `size` is the same as can be retrieved using
    [`erlang:process_info(Pid, total_heap_size)`](#process_info_total_heap_size),
    or by adding `heap_block_size`, `old_heap_block_size` and `mbuf_size` from
    [`erlang:process_info(Pid, garbage_collection_info)`](#process_info_garbage_collection_info).
  
  - **`kill`** - When set to `true`, the runtime system sends an untrappable exit
    signal with reason `kill` to the process if the maximum heap size is reached.
    The garbage collection that triggered the `kill` is not completed, instead the
    process exits as soon as possible. When set to `false`, no exit signal is sent
    to the process, instead it continues executing.
  
    If `kill` is not defined in the map, the system default will be used. The
    default system default is `true`. It can be changed by either option
    [\+hmaxk](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmaxk) in [erl](erl_cmd.md), or
    [`erlang:system_flag(max_heap_size, MaxHeapSize)`](#system_flag_max_heap_size).
  
  - **`error_logger`** - When set to `true`, the runtime system logs an error
    event via `m:logger`, containing details about the process when the maximum
    heap size is reached. One log event is sent each time the limit is reached.
  
    If `error_logger` is not defined in the map, the system default is used. The
    default system default is `true`. It can be changed by either the option
    [\+hmaxel](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmaxel) int [erl](erl_cmd.md), or
    [`erlang:system_flag(max_heap_size, MaxHeapSize)`](#system_flag_max_heap_size).
  
  - **`include_shared_binaries`** - When set to `true`, off-heap binaries are
    included in the total sum compared against the `size` limit. Off-heap binaries
    are typically larger binaries that may be shared between processes. The size
    of a shared binary is included by all processes that are referring it. Also,
    the entire size of a large binary may be included even if only a smaller part
    of it is referred by the process.
  
    If `include_shared_binaries` is not defined in the map, the system default is
    used. The default system default is `false`. It can be changed by either the
    option [\+hmaxib](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmaxib) in [erl](erl_cmd.md), or
    [`erlang:system_flag(max_heap_size, MaxHeapSize)`](#system_flag_max_heap_size).
  
  The heap size of a process is quite hard to predict, especially the amount of
  memory that is used during the garbage collection. When contemplating using this
  option, it is recommended to first run it in production with `kill` set to
  `false` and inspect the log events to see what the normal peak sizes of the
  processes in the system is and then tune the value accordingly.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(message_queue_data, message_queue_data())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_message_queue_data }
  
  Determines how messages in the message queue are stored, as follows:
  
  - **`off_heap`** - _All_ messages in the message queue will be stored outside
    the process heap. This implies that _no_ messages in the message queue will be
    part of a garbage collection of the process.
  
  - **`on_heap`** - All messages in the message queue will eventually be placed on
    the process heap. They can, however, be temporarily stored off the heap. This
    is how messages have always been stored up until ERTS 8.0.
  
  The default value of the `message_queue_data` process flag is determined by the
  command-line argument [`+hmqd`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmqd) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).
  
  If the process may potentially accumulate a large number of messages in its
  queue it is recommended to set the flag value to `off_heap`. This is due to the
  fact that the garbage collection of a process that has a large number of
  messages stored on the heap can become extremely expensive and the process can
  consume large amounts of memory. The performance of the actual message passing
  is, however, generally better when the flag value is `on_heap`.
  
  Changing the flag value causes any existing messages to be moved. The move
  operation is initiated, but not necessarily completed, by the time the function
  returns.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(priority, priority_level())
  ```
  {: #process_flag_priority }
  
  Sets the process priority. `Level` is an atom. Four priority levels exist:
  `low`, `normal`, `high`, and `max`. Default is `normal`.
  
  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > Priority level `max` is reserved for internal use in the Erlang runtime
  > system, and is _not_ to be used by others.
  
  Internally in each priority level, processes are scheduled in a round robin
  fashion.
  
  Execution of processes on priority `normal` and `low` are interleaved. Processes
  on priority `low` are selected for execution less frequently than processes on
  priority `normal`.
  
  When runnable processes on priority `high` exist, no processes on priority `low`
  or `normal` are selected for execution. Notice however that this does _not_ mean
  that no processes on priority `low` or `normal` can run when processes are
  running on priority `high`. When using multiple schedulers, more processes can
  be running in parallel than processes on priority `high`. That is, a `low` and a
  `high` priority process can execute at the same time.
  
  When runnable processes on priority `max` exist, no processes on priority `low`,
  `normal`, or `high` are selected for execution. As with priority `high`,
  processes on lower priorities can execute in parallel with processes on priority
  `max`.
  
  Scheduling is pre-emptive. Regardless of priority, a process is pre-empted when
  it has consumed more than a certain number of reductions since the last time it
  was selected for execution.
  
  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > Do not depend on the scheduling to remain exactly as it is today. Scheduling
  > is likely to be changed in a future release to use available processor cores
  > better.
  
  There is _no_ automatic mechanism for avoiding priority inversion, such as
  priority inheritance or priority ceilings. When using priorities, take this into
  account and handle such scenarios by yourself.
  
  Making calls from a `high` priority process into code that you has no control
  over can cause the `high` priority process to wait for a process with lower
  priority. That is, effectively decreasing the priority of the `high` priority
  process during the call. Even if this is not the case with one version of the
  code that you have no control over, it can be the case in a future version of
  it. This can, for example, occur if a `high` priority process triggers code
  loading, as the code server runs on priority `normal`.
  
  Other priorities than `normal` are normally not needed. When other priorities
  are used, use them with care, _especially_ priority `high`. A process on
  priority `high` is only to perform work for short periods. Busy looping for long
  periods in a `high` priority process causes most likely problems, as important
  OTP servers run on priority `normal`.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(save_calls, 0..10000)
  ```
  
  `N` must be an integer in the interval 0..10000. If `N` > 0, call saving is made
  active for the process. This means that information about the `N` most recent
  global function calls, BIF calls, sends, and receives made by the process are
  saved in a list, which can be retrieved with
  [`process_info(Pid, last_calls)`](`process_info/2`). A global function call is
  one in which the module of the function is explicitly mentioned. Only a fixed
  amount of information is saved, as follows:
  
  - A tuple `{Module, Function, Arity}` for function calls
  - The atoms `send`, `'receive'`, and `timeout` for sends and receives
    (`'receive'` when a message is received and `timeout` when a receive times
    out)
  
  If `N` = 0, call saving is disabled for the process, which is the default.
  Whenever the size of the call saving list is set, its contents are reset.
  
- ```erlang
  process_flag(sensitive, boolean())
  ```
  
  Sets or clears flag `sensitive` for the current process. When a process has been
  marked as sensitive by calling
  [`process_flag(sensitive, true)`](`process_flag/2`), features in the runtime
  system that can be used for examining the data or inner working of the process
  are silently disabled.
  
  Features that are disabled include (but are not limited to) the following:
  
  - Tracing. Trace flags can still be set for the process, but no trace messages
    of any kind are generated. (If flag `sensitive` is turned off, trace messages
    are again generated if any trace flags are set.)
  - Sequential tracing. The sequential trace token is propagated as usual, but no
    sequential trace messages are generated.
  
  `process_info/1,2` cannot be used to read out the message queue or the process
  dictionary (both are returned as empty lists).
  
  Stack back-traces cannot be displayed for the process.
  
  In crash dumps, the stack, messages, and the process dictionary are omitted.
  
  If `{save_calls,N}` has been set for the process, no function calls are saved to
  the call saving list. (The call saving list is not cleared. Also, send, receive,
  and time-out events are still added to the list.)

Returns information about the process identified by `Pid`, as specified by
`Item` or `ItemList`. Returns `undefined` if the process is not alive.

If the process is alive and a single `Item` is specified, the returned value is
the corresponding `InfoTuple`, unless `Item =:= registered_name` and the process
has no registered name. In this case, `[]` is returned. This strange behavior is
because of historical reasons, and is kept for backward compatibility.

If `ItemList` is specified, the result is `InfoTupleList`. The `InfoTuple`s in
`InfoTupleList` are included with the corresponding `Item`s in the same order as
the `Item`s were included in `ItemList`. Valid `Item`s can be included multiple
times in `ItemList`.

Getting process information follows the signal ordering guarantees described in
the [Processes Chapter](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#signals`) in the _Erlang
Reference Manual_.

> #### Note {: .info }
>
> If `registered_name` is part of `ItemList` and the process has no name
> registered, a `{registered_name, []}`, `InfoTuple` _will_ be included in the
> resulting `InfoTupleList`. This behavior is different when a single
> `Item =:= registered_name` is specified, and when
> [`process_info/1`](`process_info/1`) is used.

Valid `InfoTuple`s with corresponding `Item`s:

- **`{async_dist, Enabled}`{: #process_info_async_dist }** - Current value of the
  [`async_dist`](#process_flag_async_dist) process flag.

  Since: OTP 25.3

- **`{backtrace, Bin}`** - Binary `Bin` contains the same information as the
  output from `erlang:process_display(Pid, backtrace)`. Use
  [`binary_to_list/1`](`binary_to_list/1`) to obtain the string of characters
  from the binary.

- **`{binary, BinInfo}`** - `BinInfo` is a list containing miscellaneous
  information about binaries on the heap of this process. This `InfoTuple` can
  be changed or removed without prior notice. In the current implementation
  `BinInfo` is a list of tuples. The tuples contain; `BinaryId`, `BinarySize`,
  `BinaryRefcCount`.

  Depending on the value of the
  [`message_queue_data`](#process_flag_message_queue_data) process
  flag the message queue may be stored on the heap.

- **`{catchlevel, CatchLevel}`** - `CatchLevel` is the number of currently
  active catches in this process. This `InfoTuple` can be changed or removed
  without prior notice.

- **`{current_function, {Module, Function, Arity} | undefined}`** - `Module`,
  `Function`, `Arity` is the current function call of the process. The value
  `undefined` can be returned if the process is currently executing native
  compiled code.

- **`{current_location, {Module, Function, Arity, Location}}`** - `Module`,
  `Function`, `Arity` is the current function call of the process. `Location` is
  a list of two-tuples describing the location in the source code.

- **`{current_stacktrace, Stack}`**{: #process_info_current_stacktrace } -
  Returns the current call stack back-trace
  (_stacktrace_) of the process. The stack has the same format as in the `catch`
  part of a `try`. See
  [The call-stack back trace (stacktrace)](`e:system:errors.md#stacktrace`). The
  depth of the stacktrace is truncated according to the `backtrace_depth` system
  flag setting.

- **`{dictionary, Dictionary}`** - `Dictionary` is the process dictionary.

- **`{{dictionary, Key}, Value}`** - `Value` associated with `Key` in the
  process dictionary.

- **`{error_handler, Module}`** - `Module` is the `m:error_handler` module used by
  the process (for undefined function calls, for example).

- **`{garbage_collection, GCInfo}`** - `GCInfo` is a list containing
  miscellaneous information about garbage collection for this process. The
  content of `GCInfo` can be changed without prior notice.

- **`{garbage_collection_info, GCInfo}`{: #process_info_garbage_collection_info }** -
  `GCInfo` is a list containing miscellaneous detailed information about
  garbage collection for this process. The content of `GCInfo` can be changed
  without prior notice. For details about the meaning of each item, see
  [`gc_minor_start`](`m:trace#gc_minor_start`) in `trace:process/4`.

- **`{group_leader, GroupLeader}`** - `GroupLeader` is the group leader for the
  I/O of the process.

- **`{heap_size, Size}`** - `Size` is the size in words of the youngest heap
  generation of the process. This generation includes the process stack. This
  information is highly implementation-dependent, and can change if the
  implementation changes.

- **`{initial_call, {Module, Function, Arity}}`** - `Module`, `Function`,
  `Arity` is the initial function call with which the process was spawned.

- **`{links, PidsAndPorts}`** - `PidsAndPorts` is a list of process identifiers
  and port identifiers, with processes or ports to which the process has a link.

- **`{label, Label}`** -
  `Label` is the label for the process. See `proc_lib:get_label/1`.

   Since: OTP 27.2

- **`{last_calls, false|Calls}`** - The value is `false` if call saving is not
  active for the process (see `process_flag/3`). If call saving is active, a
  list is returned, in which the last element is the most recent called.

- **`{memory, Size}`** - [](){: #process_info_memory } `Size` is the size in
  bytes of the process. This includes call stack, heap, and internal structures.

- **`{message_queue_len, MessageQueueLen}`** - `MessageQueueLen` is the number
  of messages currently in the message queue of the process. This is the length
  of the list `MessageQueue` returned as the information item `messages` (see
  below).

- **`{messages, MessageQueue}`** - `MessageQueue` is a list of the messages to
  the process, which have not yet been processed.

- **`{min_heap_size, MinHeapSize}`** - `MinHeapSize` is the minimum heap size
  for the process.

- **`{min_bin_vheap_size, MinBinVHeapSize}`** - `MinBinVHeapSize` is the minimum
  binary virtual heap size for the process.

- **`{monitored_by, MonitoredBy}`** - A list of identifiers for all the
  processes, ports and NIF resources, that are monitoring the process.

- **`{monitors, Monitors}`** - A list of monitors (started by
  [`monitor/2`](`monitor/2`)) that are active for the process. For a local
  process monitor or a remote process monitor by a process identifier, the list
  consists of:

  - **`{process, Pid}`** - Process is monitored by pid.

  - **`{process, {RegName, Node}}`** - Local or remote process is monitored by
    name.

  - **`{port, PortId}`** - Local port is monitored by port id.

  - **`{port, {RegName, Node}}`** - Local port is monitored by name. Please
    note, that remote port monitors are not supported, so `Node` will always be
    the local node name.

- **`{message_queue_data, MQD}`** - `MQD` is the current value of the
  `message_queue_data` process flag, which can be either `off_heap` or
  `on_heap`. For more information, see the documentation of
  [`process_flag(message_queue_data, MQD)`](#process_flag_message_queue_data).

- **`{parent, Pid}`** - `Pid` is the identifier of the parent process, the one
  that spawned current process. When the process does not have a parent
  `undefined` is returned. Only the initial process (`init`) on a node lacks a
  parent, though.

  Since: OTP 25.0

- **`{priority, Level}`** - `Level` is the current priority level for the
  process. For more information on priorities, see
  [`process_flag(priority, Level)`](#process_flag_priority).

- **`{priority_messages, Enabled}`** - Since OTP 28.0

  If `Enabled` equals `true`, the process has
  [enabled priority message reception](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#enable-prio-msg-recv`)
  enabled priority message reception for at least one type of messages.

  For more information see the
  [_Adding Messages to the Message Queue_](`e:system:ref_man_processes.md#message-queue-order`)
  section of the _Erlang Reference Manual_.


- **`{reductions, Number}`** - `Number` is the number of reductions executed by
  the process.

- **`{registered_name, Atom}`** - `Atom` is the registered process name. If the
  process has no registered name, this tuple is not present in the list.

- **`{sequential_trace_token, [] | SequentialTraceToken}`** -
  `SequentialTraceToken` is the sequential trace token for the process. This
  `InfoTuple` can be changed or removed without prior notice.

- **`{stack_size, Size}`** - `Size` is the stack size, in words, of the process.

- **`{status, Status}`** - `Status` is the status of the process and is one of
  the following:

  - `exiting`
  - `garbage_collecting`
  - `waiting` (for a message)
  - `running`
  - `runnable` (ready to run, but another process is running)
  - `suspended` (suspended on a "busy" port or by the BIF
    `erlang:suspend_process/1,2`)

- **`{suspending, SuspendeeList}`** - `SuspendeeList` is a list of
  `{Suspendee, ActiveSuspendCount, OutstandingSuspendCount}` tuples. `Suspendee`
  is the process identifier of a process that has been, or is to be, suspended
  by the process identified by `Pid` through the BIF
  [`erlang:suspend_process/2`](`suspend_process/2`) or
  [`erlang:suspend_process/1`](`suspend_process/1`).

  `ActiveSuspendCount` is the number of times `Suspendee` has been suspended by
  `Pid`. `OutstandingSuspendCount` is the number of not yet completed suspend
  requests sent by `Pid`, that is:

  - If `ActiveSuspendCount =/= 0`, `Suspendee` is currently in the suspended
    state.
  - If `OutstandingSuspendCount =/= 0`, option `asynchronous` of
    `erlang:suspend_process/2` has been used and the suspendee has not yet been
    suspended by `Pid`.

  Notice that `ActiveSuspendCount` and `OutstandingSuspendCount` are not the
  total suspend count on `Suspendee`, only the parts contributed by `Pid`.

- **`{total_heap_size, Size}`{: #process_info_total_heap_size }** - `Size` is
  the total size, in words, of all heap fragments of the process. This includes
  the process stack and any unreceived messages that are considered to be part
  of the heap.

- **`{trace, InternalTraceFlags}`** - `InternalTraceFlags` is an integer
  representing the internal trace flag for this process. This `InfoTuple` can be
  changed or removed without prior notice.

- **`{trap_exit, Boolean}`** - `Boolean` is `true` if the process is trapping
  exits, otherwise `false`.

Notice that not all implementations support all these `Item`s.

Failures:

- **`badarg`** - If `Pid` is not a local process.

- **`badarg`** - If `Item` is an invalid item.

- ```erlang
  statistics(microstate_accounting) -> [MSAcc_Thread]
  ```
  {: #statistics_microstate_accounting }

  Microstate accounting can be used to measure how much time the Erlang runtime
  system spends doing various tasks. It is designed to be as lightweight as
  possible, but some overhead exists when this is enabled. Microstate accounting
  is meant to be a profiling tool to help finding performance bottlenecks. To
  `start`/`stop`/`reset` microstate accounting, use system flag
  [`microstate_accounting`](#system_flag_microstate_accounting).

  [`statistics(microstate_accounting)`](`statistics/1`) returns a list of maps
  representing some of the OS threads within ERTS. Each map contains `type` and
  `id` fields that can be used to identify what thread it is, and also a counters
  field that contains data about how much time has been spent in the various
  states.

  Example:

  ```erlang
  > erlang:statistics(microstate_accounting).
  [#{counters => #{aux => 1899182914,
                   check_io => 2605863602,
                   emulator => 45731880463,
                   gc => 1512206910,
                   other => 5421338456,
                   port => 221631,
                   sleep => 5150294100},
     id => 1,
     type => scheduler}|...]
  ```

  The time unit is the same as returned by `os:perf_counter/0`. So, to convert it
  to milliseconds, you can do something like this:

  ```erlang
  lists:map(
    fun(#{ counters := Cnt } = M) ->
           MsCnt = maps:map(fun(_K, PerfCount) ->
                                      erlang:convert_time_unit(PerfCount, perf_counter, 1000)
                             end, Cnt),
           M#{ counters := MsCnt }
    end, erlang:statistics(microstate_accounting)).
  ```

  Notice that these values are not guaranteed to be the exact time spent in each
  state. This is because of various optimisation done to keep the overhead as
  small as possible.

  `MSAcc_Thread_Type`s:

  - **`scheduler`** - The main execution threads that do most of the work. See
    [erl +S](erl_cmd.md#%2BS) for more details.

  - **`dirty_cpu_scheduler`** - The threads for long running cpu intensive work.
    See [erl +SDcpu](erl_cmd.md#%2BSDcpu) for more details.

  - **`dirty_io_scheduler`** - The threads for long running I/O work. See
    [erl +SDio](erl_cmd.md#%2BSDio) for more details.

  - **`async`** - Async threads are used by various linked-in drivers (mainly the
    file drivers) do offload non-CPU intensive work. See
    [erl +A](erl_cmd.md#async_thread_pool_size) for more details.

  - **`aux`** - Takes care of any work that is not specifically assigned to a
    scheduler.

  - **`poll`** - Does the IO polling for the emulator. See
    [erl +IOt](erl_cmd.md#%2BIOt) for more details.

  The following `MSAcc_Thread_State`s are available. All states are exclusive,
  meaning that a thread cannot be in two states at once. So, if you add the
  numbers of all counters in a thread, you get the total runtime for that thread.

  - **`aux`** - Time spent handling auxiliary jobs.

  - **`check_io`** - Time spent checking for new I/O events.

  - **`emulator`** - Time spent executing Erlang processes.

  - **`gc`** - Time spent doing garbage collection. When extra states are enabled
    this is the time spent doing non-fullsweep garbage collections.

  - **`other`** - Time spent doing unaccounted things.

  - **`port`** - Time spent executing ports.

  - **`sleep`** - Time spent sleeping.

  More fine-grained `MSAcc_Thread_State`s can be added through configure (such as
  `./configure --with-microstate-accounting=extra`). Enabling these states causes
  performance degradation when microstate accounting is turned off and increases
  the overhead when it is turned on.

  - **`alloc`** - Time spent managing memory. Without extra states this time is
    spread out over all other states.

  - **`bif`** - Time spent in BIFs. Without extra states this time is part of the
    `emulator` state.

  - **`busy_wait`** - Time spent busy waiting. This is also the state where a
    scheduler no longer reports that it is active when using
    [`statistics(scheduler_wall_time)`](#statistics_scheduler_wall_time).
    So, if you add all other states but this and sleep, and then divide that by
    all time in the thread, you should get something very similar to the
    `scheduler_wall_time` fraction. Without extra states this time is part of the
    `other` state.

  - **`ets`** - Time spent executing ETS BIFs. Without extra states this time is
    part of the `emulator` state.

  - **`gc_full`** - Time spent doing fullsweep garbage collection. Without extra
    states this time is part of the `gc` state.

  - **`nif`** - Time spent in NIFs. Without extra states this time is part of the
    `emulator` state.

  - **`send`** - Time spent sending messages (processes only). Without extra
    states this time is part of the `emulator` state.

  - **`timers`** - Time spent managing timers. Without extra states this time is
    part of the `other` state.

  The utility module `m:msacc` can be used to more easily analyse these
  statistics.

  Returns `undefined` if system flag
  [`microstate_accounting`](#system_flag_microstate_accounting) is
  turned off.

      ActiveTime :: non_neg_integer(),
      TotalTime :: non_neg_integer()}] |
    undefined
  ```
  {: #statistics_scheduler_wall_time }

  Returns information describing how much time
  [normal](#system_info_schedulers) and
  [dirty CPU](#system_info_dirty_cpu_schedulers) schedulers in the
  system have been busy. This value is normally a better indicator of how much
  load an Erlang node is under instead of looking at the CPU utilization provided
  by tools such as `top` or `sysstat`. This is because `scheduler_wall_time` also
  includes time where the scheduler is waiting for some other resource (such as
  an internal mutex) to be available but does not use the CPU. In order to better
  understand what a scheduler is busy doing you can use
  [microstate accounting](#statistics_microstate_accounting).

  The definition of a busy scheduler is when it is not idle and not
  [busy waiting](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbwt) for new work, that is:

  - Executing process code
  - Executing linked-in driver or NIF code
  - Executing BIFs, or any other runtime handling
  - Garbage collecting
  - Handling any other memory management

  Notice that a scheduler can also be busy even if the OS has scheduled out the
  scheduler thread.

  If [enabled](#system_flag_scheduler_wall_time) this function returns a
  list of tuples with `{SchedulerId, ActiveTime, TotalTime}`, where `SchedulerId`
  is an integer ID of the scheduler, `ActiveTime` is the duration the scheduler
  has been busy, and `TotalTime` is the total time duration since
  [`scheduler_wall_time`](#system_flag_scheduler_wall_time) activation
  for the specific scheduler. The time unit returned is undefined and can be
  subject to change between releases, OSs, and system restarts.
  `scheduler_wall_time` is only to be used to calculate relative values for
  scheduler utilization. The `ActiveTime` can never exceed `TotalTime`. The list
  of scheduler information is unsorted and can appear in different order between
  calls.

  The [disabled](#system_flag_scheduler_wall_time) this function returns
  `undefined`.

  The activation time can differ significantly between schedulers. Currently dirty
  schedulers are activated at system start while normal schedulers are activated
  some time after the `scheduler_wall_time` functionality is enabled.

  Only information about schedulers that are expected to handle CPU bound work is
  included in the return values from this function. If you also want information
  about [dirty I/O schedulers](#system_info_dirty_io_schedulers), use
  [`statistics(scheduler_wall_time_all)`](#statistics_scheduler_wall_time_all)
  instead.

  Normal schedulers will have scheduler identifiers in the range
  `1 =< SchedulerId =< `[`erlang:system_info(schedulers)`](#system_info_schedulers).
  Dirty CPU schedulers will have scheduler identifiers in the range
  `erlang:system_info(schedulers) < SchedulerId =< erlang:system_info(schedulers) + `[`erlang:system_info(dirty_cpu_schedulers)`](#system_info_dirty_cpu_schedulers).

  > #### Note {: .info }

  You can use `scheduler_wall_time` to calculate scheduler utilization. First you
  take a sample of the values returned by
  `erlang:statistics(scheduler_wall_time)`.

  ```erlang
  > erlang:system_flag(scheduler_wall_time, true).
  false
  > Ts0 = lists:sort(erlang:statistics(scheduler_wall_time)), ok.
  ok
  ```

  Some time later the user takes another snapshot and calculates scheduler
  utilization per scheduler, for example:

  ```erlang
  > Ts1 = lists:sort(erlang:statistics(scheduler_wall_time)), ok.
  ok
  > lists:map(fun({{I, A0, T0}, {I, A1, T1}}) ->
          {I, (A1 - A0)/(T1 - T0)} end, lists:zip(Ts0,Ts1)).
  [{1,0.9743474730177548},
   {2,0.9744843782751444},
   {3,0.9995902361669045},
   {4,0.9738012596572161},
   {5,0.9717956667018103},
   {6,0.9739235846420741},
   {7,0.973237033077876},
   {8,0.9741297293248656}]
  ```

  Using the same snapshots to calculate a total scheduler utilization:

  ```erlang
  > {A, T} = lists:foldl(fun({{_, A0, T0}, {_, A1, T1}}, {Ai,Ti}) ->
          {Ai + (A1 - A0), Ti + (T1 - T0)} end, {0, 0}, lists:zip(Ts0,Ts1)),
    TotalSchedulerUtilization = A/T.
  0.9769136803764825
  ```

  Total scheduler utilization will equal `1.0` when all schedulers have been
  active all the time between the two measurements.

  Another (probably more) useful value is to calculate total scheduler utilization
  weighted against maximum amount of available CPU time:

  ```erlang
  > WeightedSchedulerUtilization = (TotalSchedulerUtilization
                                    * (erlang:system_info(schedulers)
                                       + erlang:system_info(dirty_cpu_schedulers)))
                                   / erlang:system_info(logical_processors_available).
  0.9769136803764825
  ```

  This weighted scheduler utilization will reach `1.0` when schedulers are active
  the same amount of time as maximum available CPU time. If more schedulers exist
  than available logical processors, this value may be greater than `1.0`.

  As of ERTS version 9.0, the Erlang runtime system will as default have more
  schedulers than logical processors. This due to the dirty schedulers.

Sets a system flag to the given value.

The possible flags to set are:

- ```erlang
  system_flag(backtrace_depth, non_neg_integer()) -> non_neg_integer()
  ```

   Sets the maximum depth of call stack back-traces in the exit reason element of
  `'EXIT'` tuples. The flag also limits the stacktrace depth returned by
  `process_info/2` item [`current_stacktrace`](#process_info_current_stacktrace).

  Returns the old value of the flag.

  >
  > When this argument is removed, a final CPU topology to use is determined at
  > emulator boot time.

  Sets the user-defined `CpuTopology`. The user-defined CPU topology overrides any
  automatically detected CPU topology. By passing `undefined` as `CpuTopology`,
  the system reverts to the CPU topology automatically detected. The returned
  value equals the value returned from `erlang:system_info(cpu_topology)` before
  the change was made.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

  The CPU topology is used when binding schedulers to logical processors. If
  schedulers are already bound when the CPU topology is changed, the schedulers
  are sent a request to rebind according to the new CPU topology.

  The user-defined CPU topology can also be set by passing command-line argument
  [`+sct`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsct) to [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  For information on type `CpuTopology` and more, see
  [`erlang:system_info(cpu_topology)`](#system_info_cpu_topology) as

- ```erlang
  system_flag(dirty_cpu_schedulers_online, pos_integer()) -> pos_integer()
  ```
  {: #system_flag_dirty_cpu_schedulers_online }

  Sets the number of dirty CPU schedulers online. Range is
  `1 <= DirtyCPUSchedulersOnline <= N`, where `N` is the smallest of the return
  values of `erlang:system_info(dirty_cpu_schedulers)` and
  `erlang:system_info(schedulers_online)`.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

  The number of dirty CPU schedulers online can change if the number of schedulers
  online changes. For example, if 12 schedulers and 6 dirty CPU schedulers are
  online, and [`system_flag/2`](`system_flag/2`) is used to set the number of
  schedulers online to 6, then the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is
  automatically decreased by half as well, down to 3. Similarly, the number of
  dirty CPU schedulers online increases proportionally to increases in the number
  of schedulers online.

- ```erlang
  system_flag(erts_alloc, {Alloc :: atom(), F :: atom(), V :: integer()}) ->
    ok | notsup
  ```

  Sets system flags for [`erts_alloc(3)`](erts_alloc.md). `Alloc` is the allocator
  to affect, for example `binary_alloc`. `F` is the flag to change and `V` is the
  new value.

  Only a subset of all `erts_alloc` flags can be changed at run time. This subset
  is currently only the flag [`sbct`](erts_alloc.md#M_sbct).

  Returns `ok` if the flag was set or `notsup` if not supported by `erts_alloc`.

  Available since OTP 20.2.3

- ```erlang
  system_flag(fullsweep_after, non_neg_integer()) -> non_neg_integer()

  Sets system flag `fullsweep_after`. `Number` is a non-negative integer
  indicating how many times generational garbage collections can be done without
  forcing a fullsweep collection. The value applies to new processes, while
  processes already running are not affected.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

  In low-memory systems (especially without virtual memory), setting the value to
  `0` can help to conserve memory.

  This value can also be set through (OS) environment variable
  `ERL_FULLSWEEP_AFTER`.

- ```erlang

  system_flag(multi_scheduling, BlockState) -> OldBlockState when
    BlockState :: block | unblock | block_normal | unblock_normal,
    OldBlockState :: blocked | disabled | enabled
  ```
  {: #system_flag_multi_scheduling }

  If multi-scheduling is enabled, more than one scheduler thread is used by the
  emulator. Multi-scheduling can be blocked in two different ways. Either all
  schedulers but one is blocked, or all _normal_ schedulers but one is blocked.
  When only normal schedulers are blocked, dirty schedulers are free to continue
  to schedule processes.

  If `BlockState =:= block`, multi-scheduling is blocked. That is, one and only
  one scheduler thread will execute. If `BlockState =:= unblock` and no one else
  blocks multi-scheduling, and this process has blocked only once,
  multi-scheduling is unblocked.

  If `BlockState =:= block_normal`, normal multi-scheduling is blocked. That is,
  only one normal scheduler thread will execute, but multiple dirty schedulers can
  execute. If `BlockState =:= unblock_normal` and no one else blocks normal
  multi-scheduling, and this process has blocked only once, normal
  multi-scheduling is unblocked.

  One process can block multi-scheduling and normal multi-scheduling multiple
  times. If a process has blocked multiple times, it must unblock exactly as many
  times as it has blocked before it has released its multi-scheduling block. If a
  process that has blocked multi-scheduling or normal multi-scheduling exits, it
  automatically releases its blocking of multi-scheduling and normal
  multi-scheduling.

  The return values are `disabled`, `blocked`, `blocked_normal`, or `enabled`. The
  returned value describes the state just after the call to
  `erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, BlockState)` has been made. For
  information about the return values, see
  [`erlang:system_info(multi_scheduling)`](#system_info_multi_scheduling).

  system_flag(outstanding_system_requests_limit, 1..134217727) -> 1..134217727
  ```
  {: #system_flag_outstanding_system_requests_limit }

  Sets a limit on the amount of outstanding requests made by a system process
  orchestrating system wide changes. Currently there are two such processes:

  - **The Code Purger** - The code purger orchestrates checking of references to
    old code before old code is removed from the system.

  - **The Literal Area Collector** - The literal area collector orchestrates
    copying of references from old literal areas before removal of such areas from
    the system.

  Each of these processes are allowed to have as many outstanding requests as this
  limit is set to. By default this limit is set to twice the amount of
  [schedulers](#system_info_schedulers) on the system. This will ensure
  that schedulers will have enough work scheduled to perform these operations as
  quickly as possible at the same time as other work will be interleaved with this
  work. Currently used limit can be checked by calling
  [`erlang:system_info(outstanding_system_requests_limit)`](#system_info_outstanding_system_requests_limit).

  This limit can also be set by passing the command line argument
  [`+zosrl <Limit>`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bzosrl) to `erl`.

  Controls if and how schedulers are bound to logical processors.

  When `erlang:system_flag(scheduler_bind_type, How)` is called, an asynchronous
  signal is sent to all schedulers online, causing them to try to bind or unbind
  as requested.

  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > If a scheduler fails to bind, this is often silently ignored, as it is not
  > always possible to verify valid logical processor identifiers. If an error is
  > reported, an error event is logged. To verify that the schedulers have bound
  > as requested, call
  > [`erlang:system_info(scheduler_bindings)`](#system_info_scheduler_bindings).

  Schedulers can be bound on newer Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, and Windows systems,
  but more systems will be supported in future releases.

  In order for the runtime system to be able to bind schedulers, the CPU topology
  must be known. If the runtime system fails to detect the CPU topology
  automatically, it can be defined. For more information on how to define the CPU
  topology, see command-line flag [`+sct`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsct) in
  [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  The runtime system does by default _not_ bind schedulers to logical processors.

  > #### Note {: .info }
  >
  > If the Erlang runtime system is the only OS process binding threads to logical
  > processors, this improves the performance of the runtime system. However, if
  > other OS processes (for example, another Erlang runtime system) also bind
  > threads to logical processors, there can be a performance penalty instead.
  > Sometimes this performance penalty can be severe. If so, it is recommended to
  > not bind the schedulers.

  Schedulers can be bound in different ways. Argument `How` determines how
  schedulers are bound and can be any of the following:

  - **`unbound`** - Same as command-line argument [`+sbt u`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in
    [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`no_spread`** - Same as command-line argument [`+sbt ns`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt)
    in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`thread_spread`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt ts`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`processor_spread`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt ps`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`spread`** - Same as command-line argument [`+sbt s`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in
    [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`no_node_thread_spread`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt nnts`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`no_node_processor_spread`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt nnps`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`thread_no_node_processor_spread`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt tnnps`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  - **`default_bind`** - Same as command-line argument
    [`+sbt db`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  The returned value equals `How` before flag `scheduler_bind_type` was changed.

  Failures:

  - **`notsup`** - If binding of schedulers is not supported.

  - **`badarg`** - If `How` is not one of the documented alternatives.

  - **`badarg`** - If CPU topology information is unavailable.

  The scheduler bind type can also be set by passing command-line argument
  [`+sbt`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) to [erl](erl_cmd.md).

  For more information, see
  [`erlang:system_info(scheduler_bind_type)`](#system_info_scheduler_bind_type),
  [`erlang:system_info(scheduler_bindings)`](#system_info_scheduler_bindings),
  as well as command-line flags [`+sbt`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsbt) and
  [`+sct`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bsct) in [erl](erl_cmd.md).

- ```erlang
  system_flag(scheduler_wall_time, boolean()) -> boolean()
  ```
  {: #system_flag_scheduler_wall_time }

  Try enable or disable scheduler wall time measurements by passing `Boolean` as
  either `true` or `false`.

  For more information about how to use scheduler wall time measurements, see
  [`statistics(scheduler_wall_time)`](#statistics_scheduler_wall_time).

  Scheduler wall time measurements has a node global state. It is either enabled
  for all processes on the node or disabled for all processes. Each process has a
  logical counter initialized as zero. A call with `Boolean` as `true` will
  increase that counter one step for the calling process. A call with `false` will
  decrease it one step unless it already is zero. The node global state for
  `scheduler_wall_time` will be enabled as long as there is at least one process
  alive with a counter value larger than zero. When a process terminates, its
  counter will also disappear. To ensure `scheduler_wall_time` is kept enabled,
  the process that enabled it must therefore be kept alive.

  Returns the old value of the node global state, `true` if scheduler wall time
  measurements were enabled, `false` if it were disabled.

  Scheduler wall time measurements do consume some cpu overhead and should not be
  left turned on unless used.

- ```erlang
  system_flag(schedulers_online, pos_integer()) -> pos_integer()
  ```
  {: #system_flag_schedulers_online }

  Sets the number of schedulers online. Range is
  `1 <= SchedulersOnline <= erlang:system_info(schedulers)`.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

  If the emulator was built with support for
  [dirty schedulers](#system_flag_dirty_cpu_schedulers_online), changing
  the number of schedulers online can also change the number of dirty CPU
  schedulers online. For example, if 12 schedulers and 6 dirty CPU schedulers are
  online, and [`system_flag/2`](`system_flag/2`) is used to set the number of
  schedulers online to 6, then the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is
  automatically decreased by half as well, down to 3. Similarly, the number of
  dirty CPU schedulers online increases proportionally to increases in the number
  of schedulers online.

  For more information, see
  [`erlang:system_info(schedulers)`](#system_info_schedulers) and
  [`erlang:system_info(schedulers_online)`](#system_info_schedulers_online).

- ```erlang
  system_flag(system_logger, logger | undefined | pid()) -> logger | undefined | pid()
  ```

  Sets the process that will receive the logging messages generated by ERTS. If
  set to `undefined`, all logging messages generated by ERTS will be dropped. The
  messages will be in the format:

  ```erlang
  {log,Level,Format,ArgList,Metadata} where

  Level = atom(),
  Format = string(),
  ArgList = list(term()),
  Metadata = #{ pid => pid(),
     group_leader => pid(),
     time := logger:timestamp(),
     error_logger := #{ emulator := true, tag := atom() }
  ```

  If the `system_logger` process dies, this flag will be reset to `logger`.

  The default is the process named `logger`.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

- ```erlang

  Sets the value of the node trace control word to `TCW`, which is to be an
  unsigned integer. For more information, see function
  [`set_tcw`](match_spec.md#set_tcw) in section "Match Specifications in Erlang"
  in the User's Guide.

  Returns the old value of the flag.

- ```erlang
  system_flag(time_offset, finalize) -> preliminary | final | volatile
  ```
  {: #system_flag_time_offset }

  Finalizes the [time offset](`time_offset/0`) when
  [single time warp mode](time_correction.md#single-time-warp-mode) is used. If
  another time warp mode is used, the time offset state is left unchanged.

  Returns the old state identifier, that is:

  - If `preliminary` is returned, finalization was performed and the time offset
    is now final.
  - If `final` is returned, the time offset was already in the final state. This
    either because another `erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize)` call or
    because [no time warp mode](time_correction.md#no-time-warp-mode) is used.
  - If `volatile` is returned, the time offset cannot be finalized because
    [multi-time warp mode](time_correction.md#multi-time-warp-mode) is used.

-doc """
Returns a binary data object that is the result of encoding `Term` according to
the Erlang external term format.

Supported options:

- **`compressed`** - Compress the external term format. The compressed format is
  automatically recognized by [`binary_to_term/1`](`binary_to_term/1`) as from
  Erlang/OTP R7B.

- **`{compressed, Level}`** - Compress the external term format to a given
  level. The compression level is specified by `Level` which is an integer in
  the range 0 to 9, where:

  - **`0`** - No compression is applied (equivalent to omitting the `compressed`
    option).

  - **`1`** - Fastest compression but may not compress as well as the higher
    levels.

  - **`6`** - Default level when the `compressed` option is provided.

  - **`9`** - Highest compression level, taking the longest time while
    attempting to produce the smallest result. However, depending on
    the input term, level 9 compression may not always produce a smaller
    result than level 1 compression.

- **`{minor_version, Version}`**(Since R11B-4)  
  The option can be used to control some encoding details. Valid values for
  `Version` are:

  - **`0`** - Floats are encoded using a textual representation.

    Atoms that can be represented by a latin1 string are encoded using latin1
    while only atoms that cannot be represented by latin1 are encoded using
    utf8.

  - **`1`** - Floats are encoded in a more space-efficient and exact way (namely
    in the 64-bit IEEE format, rather than converted to a textual
    representation). As from Erlang/OTP R11B-4,
    [`binary_to_term/1`](`binary_to_term/1`) can decode this representation.

    Atoms that can be represented by a latin1 string are encoded using latin1
    while only atoms that cannot be represented by latin1 are encoded using
    utf8.

  - **`2`** - This is as of Erlang/OTP 26.0 the _default_. Atoms are
    unconditionally encoded using utf8. Erlang/OTP systems as of R16B can decode
    this representation.

- **`deterministic`**(Since OTP 24.1)  
  This option can be used to ensure that, within the same major release of
  Erlang/OTP, the same encoded representation is returned for the same term.
  There is still no guarantee that the encoded representation remains the same
  between major releases of Erlang/OTP.

  This option cannot be combined with the `local` option.

- **`local`[](){: #term_to_binary_local } **(Since OTP 26.0)  
  This option encodes `Term` in an alternative local version of the
  external term format. When decoded by the same runtime system
  instance, it produces a term identical to original term, even if the
  node name and/or [creation](#system_info_creation) of the runtime
  system instance have changed between encoding and decoding.

  When encoding without the `local` option, local identifiers such as
  [pids](`t:pid/0`), [ports](`t:port/0`), and
  [references](`t:reference/0`) will not remain the same if node name
  and/or creation of the runtime system instance changed
  between encoding and decoding. This is because such identifiers refer to
  a specific node by node name and creation.

  The node name and creation change when the distribution is started
  or stopped. The distribution starts when the runtime system is
  started with the [`-name`](erl_cmd.md#name) or
  [`-sname`](erl_cmd.md#sname) command-line arguments. Note that the
  actual start of the distribution occurs after other code in the
  startup phase has already begun executing. The distribution can also
  be started by calling `net_kernel:start/2` and stopped by calling
  [`net_kernel:stop/1`](`net_kernel:stop/0`), provided it was not
  started via the command line.

  When decoding a term encoded with the `local` option using, for
  example, `binary_to_term/1`, the runtime system attempts to verify
  that the term was encoded by the same runtime system instance. In
  most cases, decoding will fail if it was encoded by a different
  instance. However, this verification is not foolproof. You _should_
  ensure that terms encoded with the local option are _only_ decoded by
  the same Erlang runtime system instance that encoded them.

  Since only the runtime system that encoded a term using the `local`
  option can decode it, the local encoding is typically pieced
  together with something else to produce a reply to where the local
  encoding originates. If a term encoded with the local option has its
  leading version number stripped, it can be embedded as part of a
  larger term (for example as an element in a tuple) when encoding in
  the external term format using, for example,
  [EI](`e:erl_interface:ei.md`).  In this case, you would strip the
  version number using `ei_decode_version()` and append the remaining
  local encoding using, for example, `ei_x_append_buf()`.

  A common use case for the `local` option is when making a request
  from a process to a port driver [driver](erl_driver.md) while
  leveraging the [selective receive
  optimization](`e:system:eff_guide_processes.md#receiving-messages`)
  for handling the reply.

  In this scenario:

  1. A reference is created.

  2. The reference is serialized using the external term format with
  the `local` option.

  3. This serialized reference is passed to the driver in the request.

  4. The process then waits for a reply message in a selective
  receive, matching on the reference.

  The driver should send the reply using either
  [`erl_drv_output_term()`](erl_driver.md#erl_drv_output_term) or
  [`erl_drv_send_term()`](erl_driver.md#erl_drv_send_term) using the
  term type [`ERL_DRV_EXT2TERM`](erl_driver.md#ERL_DRV_EXT2TERM)
  for the reference previously received in the request.

  Note that you should not strip the leading version number from the
  local encoding when using the term type `ERL_DRV_EXT2TERM`. If the
  reference is not encoded with the `local` option, and distribution is
  started or stopped while the request is ongoing, the requesting
  process will hang indefinitely because the reference in the reply
  message will never match.

  This option cannot be combined with the `deterministic` option.

  For more details, see [`LOCAL_EXT`](erl_ext_dist.md#local_ext).

Works as `spawn/3`, except that an extra option list is specified when creating
the process.

If option `monitor` is specified, the newly created process is monitored, and
both the pid and reference for the monitor are returned.

Options:

- **`link`** - Sets a link to the parent process (like `spawn_link/3` does).

- **`monitor`** - Monitors the new process (like
  [`monitor(process, Pid)`](`monitor/2`) does). A `{Pid, MonitorRef}` tuple will
  be returned instead of just a `Pid`.

- **`{monitor, MonitorOpts}`** - Monitors the new process with options (like
  [`monitor(process, Pid, MonitorOpts)`](`monitor/3`) does). A
  `{Pid, MonitorRef}` tuple will be returned instead of just a `Pid`.

- **`{priority, Level}`** - Sets the priority of the new process. Equivalent to
  executing [`process_flag(priority, Level)`](#process_flag_priority)
  in the start function of the new process, except that the priority is set
  before the process is selected for execution for the first time. For more
  information on priorities, see
  [`process_flag(priority, Level)`](#process_flag_priority).

- **`{fullsweep_after, Number}`** - Useful only for performance tuning. Do not
  use this option unless you know that there is problem with execution times or
  memory consumption, and ensure that the option improves matters.

  The Erlang runtime system uses a generational garbage collection scheme, using
  an "old heap" for data that has survived at least one garbage collection. When
  there is no more room on the old heap, a fullsweep garbage collection is done.

  Option `fullsweep_after` makes it possible to specify the maximum number of
  generational collections before forcing a fullsweep, even if there is room on
  the old heap. Setting the number to zero disables the general collection
  algorithm, that is, all live data is copied at every garbage collection.

  A few cases when it can be useful to change `fullsweep_after`:

  - If binaries that are no longer used are to be thrown away as soon as
    possible. (Set `Number` to zero.)
  - A process that mostly have short-lived data is fullsweeped seldom or never,
    that is, the old heap contains mostly garbage. To ensure a fullsweep
    occasionally, set `Number` to a suitable value, such as 10 or 20.
  - In embedded systems with a limited amount of RAM and no virtual memory, you
    might want to preserve memory by setting `Number` to zero. (The value can be
    set globally, see [`erlang:system_flag/2`](`system_flag/2`).)

- **`{min_heap_size, Size}`** - Useful only for performance tuning. Do not use
  this option unless you know that there is problem with execution times or
  memory consumption, and ensure that the option improves matters.

  Gives a minimum heap size, in words. Setting this value higher than the system
  default can speed up some processes because less garbage collection is done.
  However, setting a too high value can waste memory and slow down the system
  because of worse data locality. Therefore, use this option only for
  fine-tuning an application and to measure the execution time with various
  `Size` values.

- **`{min_bin_vheap_size, VSize}`** - Useful only for performance tuning. Do not
  use this option unless you know that there is problem with execution times or
  memory consumption, and ensure that the option improves matters.

  Gives a minimum binary virtual heap size, in words. Setting this value higher
  than the system default can speed up some processes because less garbage
  collection is done. However, setting a too high value can waste memory.
  Therefore, use this option only for fine-tuning an application and to measure
  the execution time with various `VSize` values.

- **`{max_heap_size, Size}`** - Sets the `max_heap_size` process flag. The
  default `max_heap_size` is determined by command-line argument
  [`+hmax`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmax) in [erl](erl_cmd.md). For more information, see
  the documentation of
  [`process_flag(max_heap_size, Size)`](#process_flag_max_heap_size).

- **`{message_queue_data, MQD}`** - Sets the value of the `message_queue_data`
  process flag. `MQD` can be either `off_heap` or `on_heap`. The default value
  of the `message_queue_data` process flag is determined by the command-line
  argument [`+hmqd`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bhmqd) in [erl](erl_cmd.md). For more
  information, see the documentation of
  [`process_flag(message_queue_data, MQD)`](#process_flag_message_queue_data).

- **`{async_dist, Enabled}`{: #spawn_opt_async_dist }** - Sets the
  [`async_dist`](#process_flag_async_dist) process flag of the spawned process.
  This option will override the default value set by the command line argument
  [`+pad <boolean>`](erl_cmd.md#%2Bpad).

-doc """
Asynchronously send a spawn request. Returns a request identifier `ReqId`.

[](){: #spawn_request_success_message }

If the spawn operation succeeds, a new process is created on the node identified
by `Node`. When a spawn operation succeeds, the caller will by default be sent a
message of the form `{ReplyTag, ReqId, ok, Pid}` where `Pid` is the process
identifier of the newly created process. Such a message is referred to as a
_success message_ below in the text. `ReplyTag` is by default the atom
`spawn_reply` unless modified by the `{reply_tag, ReplyTag}` option. The new
process is started by the application of `Module:Function` to `Args`.

[](){: #spawn_request_error_message }

The spawn operation fails either if creation of a new process failed or if the
spawn operation was interrupted by a connection failure. When a spawn operation
fails, the caller will by default be sent a message on the form
`{ReplyTag, ReqId, error, Reason}` where `Reason` is the error reason. Such a
message is referred to as an _error message_ below in the text. Currently the
following spawn error `Reason`s are defined, but other reasons can appear at any
time without prior notice:

- **`badopt`** - An invalid `Option` was passed as argument. Note that different
  runtime systems may support different options.

- **`notsup`** - The node identified by `Node` does not support spawn operations
  issued by `spawn_request()`.

- **`noconnection`** - Failure to set up a connection to the node identified by
  `Node` or the connection to that node was lost during the spawn operation. In
  the case the connection was lost, a process may or may not have been created.

- **`system_limit`** - Could not create a new process due to that some system
  limit was reached. Typically the process table was full.

Valid `Option`s:

- **`monitor`** - In the absence of spawn operation failures, atomically sets up
  a monitor to the newly created process. That is, as if the calling process had
  called [`monitor(process, Pid)`](`monitor/2`) where `Pid` is the process
  identifier of the newly created process. The `ReqId` returned by
  `spawn_request()` is also used as monitor reference as if it was returned from
  [`monitor(process, Pid)`](`monitor/2`).

  The monitor will not be activated for the calling process until the spawn
  operation has succeeded. The monitor can not be [demonitored](`demonitor/1`)
  before the operation has succeeded. A `'DOWN'` message for the corresponding
  monitor is guaranteed not to be delivered before a
  [_success message_](#spawn_request_success_message) that corresponds
  to the spawn operation. If the spawn operation fails, no `'DOWN'` message will
  be delivered.

  If the connection between the nodes involved in the spawn operation is lost
  during the spawn operation, the spawn operation will fail with an error reason
  of `noconnection`. A new process may or may not have been created.

- **`{monitor, MonitorOpts}`** - In the absence of spawn operation failures,
  atomically sets up a monitor to the newly created process. That is, as if the
  calling process had called [`monitor(process, Pid, MonitorOpts)`](`monitor/2`)
  where `Pid` is the process identifier of the newly created process. See the
  `monitor` option above for more information.

  Note that the monitor will not be activated for the calling process until the
  spawn operation has succeeded. For example, in the case that an alias is
  created using the monitor option, the alias will not be active until the
  monitor is activated.

- **`link`** - In absence of spawn operation failures, atomically sets up a link
  between the calling process and the newly created process. That is, as if the
  calling process had called [`link(Pid)`](`link/1`) where `Pid` is the process
  identifier of the newly created process.

  The link will not be activated for the calling process until the spawn
  operation has succeeded. The link can not be removed before the operation has
  succeeded. An exit signal due to the link is guaranteed not to be delivered
  before a [_success message_](#spawn_request_success_message) that
  corresponds to the spawn operation. If the spawn operation fails, no exit
  signal due to the link will be delivered to the caller of `spawn_request()`.

  If the connection between the nodes involved in the spawn operation is lost
  during the spawn operation, the spawn operation will fail with an error reason
  of `noconnection`. A new process may or may not have been created. If it has
  been created, it will be delivered an exit signal with an exit reason of
  `noconnection`.

- **`{reply, Reply}`** - Valid `Reply` values:

  - **`yes`** - A spawn reply message will be sent to the caller regardless of
    whether the operation succeeds or not. If the call to `spawn_request()`
    returns without raising an exception and the `reply` option is set to `yes`,
    the caller is guaranteed to be delivered either a
    [_success message_](#spawn_request_success_message) or an
    [_error message_](#spawn_request_error_message). The `reply`
    option is by default set to `yes`.

  - **`no`** - No spawn reply message will be sent to the caller when the spawn
    operation completes. This regardless of whether the operation succeeds or
    not.

  - **`error_only`** - No spawn reply message will be sent to the caller if the
    spawn operation succeeds, but an
    [_error message_](#spawn_request_error_message) will be sent to
    the caller if the operation fails.

  - **`success_only`** - No spawn reply message will be sent to the caller if
    the spawn operation fails, but a
    [_success message_](#spawn_request_success_message) will be sent
    to the caller if the operation succeeds.

- **`{reply_tag, ReplyTag}`** - Sets the reply tag to `ReplyTag` in the reply
  message. That is, in the [_success_](#spawn_request_success_message)
  or [_error_](#spawn_request_error_message) message that is sent to
  the caller due to the spawn operation. The default reply tag is the atom
  `spawn_reply`.

- **`OtherOption`** - Other valid options depends on what options are supported
  by the node identified by `Node`. A description of other valid `Option`s for
  the local node of current OTP version can be found in the documentation of
  `spawn_opt/4`.

If a spawn reply message is delivered, it is guaranteed to be delivered before
any other signals from the newly spawned process are delivered to the process
issuing the spawn request.

This function will fail with a `badarg` exception if:

- `Node` is not an atom.
- `Module` is not an atom.
- `Function` is not an atom.
- `Args` is not a proper list of terms.
- `Options` is not a proper list of terms.

Note that not all individual `Option`s are checked when the spawn request is
sent. Some `Option`s can only be checked on reception of the request. Therefore
an invalid option does _not_ cause a `badarg` exception, but will cause the
spawn operation to fail with an error reason of `badopt`.

A spawn request can be abandoned by calling `spawn_request_abandon/1`.

Abandon a previously issued spawn request. `ReqId` corresponds to a request
identifier previously returned by [`spawn_request()`](`spawn_request/5`) in a
call from current process. That is, only the process that has made the request
can abandon the request.

A spawn request can only be successfully abandoned until the spawn request has
completed. When a spawn request has been successfully abandoned, the caller will
not be effected by future direct effects of the spawn request itself. For
example, it will not receive a spawn reply message. The request is however not
withdrawn, so a new process may or may not be created due to the request. If a
new process is created after the spawn request was abandoned, no monitors nor
links will be set up to the caller of
[`spawn_request_abandon/1`](`spawn_request_abandon/1`) due to the spawn request.
If the spawn request included the `link` option, the process created due to this
request will be sent an exit signal from its parent with the exit reason
`abandoned` when it is detected that the spawn operation has succeeded.

Returns a list of `NodeInfo` tuples.

The second element of `NodeInfo` tuples is a map containing further information
about the node identified by the first element.
The information present in this map is determined by the

  which the caller is executing on.

  value will change for the connection to that node. The amount of values for
  connection identifiers are limited, so it is possible to see the same value
  for different instances, but quite unlikely. It is undefined how the value
  change between two consecutive connection instances.

- **`node_type => boolean()`** - If the value of the association equals `true`,
  the `Info` map in the returned result will contain the key `node_type`
  associated with the value `NodeTypeInfo`. Currently the following node types
  exist:

  - **`visible`** - The node is connected to the node of the calling process

  - **`hidden`** - The node is connected to the node of the calling process

Returns a list with information about the fun `Fun`.

Each list element is a tuple. The order of the tuples is undefined,
and more tuples can be added in a future release.

> #### Warning {: .warning }
>
> This BIF is intended for debugging. Library functions that
> need to check some property of a fun should use `fun_info/2`.

Two types of funs have slightly different semantics:

- A fun created by `fun M:F/A` is called an _external_ fun. Calling it will
  always call the function `F` with arity `A` in the latest code for module `M`.
  Notice that module `M` does not even need to be loaded when the fun
  `fun M:F/A` is created.
- All other funs are called _local_. When a local fun is called, the same
  version of the code that created the fun is called (even if a newer version of
  the module has been loaded).

The following elements are always present in the list for both local and
external funs:

- **`{type, Type}`** - `Type` is `local` or `external`.

- **`{module, Module}`** - `Module` (an atom) is the module name.

  If `Fun` is a local fun, `Module` is the module in which the fun is defined.

  If `Fun` is an external fun, `Module` is the module that the fun refers to.

- **`{name, Name}`** - `Name` (an atom) is a function name.

  If `Fun` is a local fun, `Name` is the name of the local function that
  implements the fun. (This name was generated by the compiler, and is only of
  informational use. As it is a local function, it cannot be called directly.)
  If no code is currently loaded for the fun, `[]` is returned instead of an
  atom.

  If `Fun` is an external fun, `Name` is the name of the exported function that
  the fun refers to.

- **`{arity, Arity}`** - `Arity` is the number of arguments that the fun is to
  be called with.

- **`{env, Env}`** - `Env` (a list) is the environment or free variables for the
  fun. For external funs, the returned list is always empty.

The following elements are only present in the list if `Fun` is local:

- **`{pid, Pid}`** - `Pid` is the process identifier of `init` process on
  the local node.

  > #### Change {: .info }
  >
  > Starting in Erlang/OTP 27, `Pid` always points to the local `init` process,
  > regardless of which process or node the fun was originally created on.
  >
  > See
  > [Upcoming Potential Incompatibilities ](`e:general_info:upcoming_incompatibilities.md#fun-creator-pid-will-always-be-local-init-process`).

- **`{index, Index}`** - `Index` (an integer) is an index into the module fun
  table.

- **`{new_index, Index}`** - `Index` (an integer) is an index into the module
  fun table.

- **`{new_uniq, Uniq}`** - `Uniq` (a binary) is a unique value for this fun. It
  is calculated from the compiled code for the entire module.

- **`{uniq, Uniq}`** - `Uniq` (an integer) is a unique value for this fun. As
  from Erlang/OTP R15, this integer is calculated from the compiled code for the
  entire module. Before Erlang/OTP R15, this integer was based on only the body
  of the fun.

Send a message without suspending the caller.

Equivalent to [`erlang:send(Dest, Msg, [nosuspend])`](`send/3`), but returns
`true` if the message was sent and `false` if the message was not sent because
the sender would have had to be suspended.

This function is intended for send operations to an unreliable remote node
without ever blocking the sending (Erlang) process. If the connection to the
remote node (usually not a real Erlang node, but a node written in C or Java) is
overloaded, this function _does not send the message_ and returns `false`.

The same occurs if `Dest` refers to a local port that is busy. For all other
destinations (allowed for the ordinary send operator `'!'`), this function sends
the message and returns `true`.

This function is only to be used in rare circumstances where a process
communicates with Erlang nodes that can disappear without any trace, causing the
TCP buffers and the drivers queue to be over-full before the node is shut down
(because of tick time-outs) by `net_kernel`. The normal reaction to take when
this occurs is some kind of premature shutdown of the other node.

Notice that ignoring the return value from this function would result in an
_unreliable_ message passing, which is contradictory to the Erlang programming
model. The message is _not_ sent if this function returns `false`.

In many systems, transient states of overloaded queues are normal. Although this
function returns `false` does not mean that the other node is guaranteed to be
non-responsive, it could be a temporary overload. Also, a return value of `true`
does only mean that the message can be sent on the (TCP) channel without
blocking; the message is not guaranteed to arrive at the remote node. For a
disconnected non-responsive node, the return value is `true` (mimics the
behavior of operator `!`). The expected behavior and the actions to take when
the function returns `false` are application- and hardware-specific.

Equivalent to [`erlang:send(Dest, Msg, [nosuspend | Options])`](`send/3`), but

This function behaves like [`erlang:send_nosuspend/2`](`send_nosuspend/2`), but
takes a third parameter, a list of options. The only option is `noconnect`,
which makes the function return `false` if the remote node is not currently
reachable by the local node. The normal behavior is to try to connect to the
node, which can stall the process during a short period. The use of option
`noconnect` makes it possible to be sure not to get the slightest delay when
sending to a remote process. This is especially useful when communicating with
nodes that expect to always be the connecting part (that is, nodes written in C
or Java).

Whenever the function returns `false` (either when a suspend would occur or when
`noconnect` was specified and the node was not already connected), the message
is guaranteed _not_ to have been sent.

is an atom describing memory type. The second element `Size` is the memory size
in bytes.

Memory types:

- **`total`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated. This is the same
  as the sum of the memory size for `processes` and `system`.

- **`processes`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for the
  Erlang processes.

- **`processes_used`** - The total amount of memory currently used by the Erlang
  processes. This is part of the memory presented as `processes` memory.

- **`system`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for the emulator
  that is not directly related to any Erlang process. Memory presented as
  `processes` is not included in this memory. `m:instrument` can be used to get
  a more detailed breakdown of what memory is part of this type.

- **`atom`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for atoms. This
  memory is part of the memory presented as `system` memory.

- **`atom_used`** - The total amount of memory currently used for atoms. This
  memory is part of the memory presented as `atom` memory.

- **`binary`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for binaries.
  This memory is part of the memory presented as `system` memory.

- **`code`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for Erlang code.
  This memory is part of the memory presented as `system` memory.

- **`ets`** - The total amount of memory currently allocated for ETS tables.
  This memory is part of the memory presented as `system` memory.

- **`maximum`** - The maximum total amount of memory allocated since the
  emulator was started. This tuple is only present when the emulator is run with
  instrumentation.

  For information on how to run the emulator with instrumentation, see
  `m:instrument` and/or [`erl(1)`](erl_cmd.md).

The different values have the following relation to each other. Values beginning
with an uppercase letter is not part of the result.

```text
total      = processes + system
processes  = processes_used + ProcessesNotUsed
system     = atom + binary + code + ets + OtherSystem
atom       = atom_used + AtomNotUsed
RealTotal  = processes + RealSystem
RealSystem = system + MissedSystem
```

More tuples in the returned list can be added in a future release.

> #### Note {: .info }
>
> The `total` value is supposed to be the total amount of memory dynamically
> allocated by the emulator. Shared libraries, the code of the emulator itself,
> and the emulator stacks are not supposed to be included. That is, the `total`
> value is _not_ supposed to be equal to the total size of all pages mapped to
> the emulator.
>
> Also, because of fragmentation and prereservation of memory areas, the size of
> the memory segments containing the dynamically allocated memory blocks can be
> much larger than the total size of the dynamically allocated memory blocks.

> #### Change {: .info }
>
> As from ERTS 5.6.4, `erlang:memory/0` requires that all
> [`erts_alloc(3)`](erts_alloc.md) allocators are enabled (default behavior).

Failure: `notsup` if an [`erts_alloc(3)`](erts_alloc.md) allocator has been
disabled.
