beam_utils used to be overly conservative about liveness for
exit instructions such as:
call_ext erlang:exit/1
beam_utils would consider all y registers to be used, to avoid
overwriting a catch or try tag. That does not seem to be a real
risk.
However, we miss opportunities for stack trimming if we consider
y registers used by an exit instruction.
|

The run-time system stopped paying attention the 'aligned' flag in bit
syntax construction and matching when bitstrings were introduced in
language.
The beam_asm compiler pass will crash if the 'aligned' flag is given
in bit syntax instructions.
beam_validator still validates the 'aligned' flag. Before
912fea0b712a (which removed the possibility to validate existing
BEAM files), the 'aligned' flag could actually be encountered
when validating a BEAM file.
Since the validation of 'aligned' no longer serves any useful
purpose, remove the validation code.

set_type_y/3 is far too complicated. Note that we don't need to check
the #st.numy field, because we will detect the error anyway because
the information for the y register will be missing in the #st.y
gb_tree.
There is also a clause that would never match because of a spelling
error (the first "n" was missing in "uninitialized"). That clause
is not needed because the default clause will do fine.
Furthermore, we can break out the special case for handling catch_end
and similar instructions into a new function.

|
The fault/1,2 BIF was removed a long time ago.
|
|
When merging two states, the following fields should be merged
between the states: #st.x, #st.y, #st.numy, #st.ct. Everything
else should be set to the default values in a new state.
|
|
When merging y registers, only the y registers that are found in
both states should be retained.
|
|
The compile, bitdefault, and bittypes records are not really used
in the #expand{} record.

Updating of the variable data base takes most of the time.
|
|
The use of lists:dropwhile/2 is noticeable in the eprof results.
|
|
|
|
lists:dropwhile/2 and the fun in btb_index_1/2 shows up in the
top 10 list of eprof. Replace dropwhile with a special-purpose
function for a tiny increase in speed.
|
|
Profiling shows that the excution time for checkerror_1/2 could
be be near the top even for modules without any floating point
operations.
It turns out that the complexity of simplify_float_1/4 is quadratic.
checkerror/1 is called with the growing accumulator for each
iteration. checkerror/1 will traverse the entire accumulated list
*unless* some floating point operations are used.
We can avoid this situation if we only call checkerror/1 when there
are live floating point registers. We can also avoid calling flush/3
if there are no live floating point registers.
|
|
The erl_expand_records module have inherited code from sys_pre_expand.
We can simplify the code for handling the call_ext instruction to
make the code clearer and a smidge faster.
|
|
The execution time for beam_utils:index_labels_1/2 is among
the longest in the beam_bool, beam_bsm, beam_receive, and
beam_trim compiler passes. Therefore it is worthwhile to do
the minor optimization of replacing a call to lists:dropwhile/2
with a special-purpose drop_labels function.

When matching a binary literal as in:
<<"abc">> = Bin
the compiler will produce a sequence of three instructions
(some details in the instructions removed for simplicity):
bs_start_match2 Fail BinReg CtxtReg
bs_match_string Fail CtxtReg "abc"
bs_test_tail2 Fail CtxtReg 0
The sequence can be replaced with:
is_eq_exact Fail BinReg "abc"
|

The actual bs_match_string instruction has four operands:
bs_match_string {f,Lbl} Ctxt NumBits {string,ListOfBytes}
However, v3_codegen emits a more compact representation where
the bits to match are packaged in a bitstring:
bs_match_string {f,Lbl} Ctxt Bitstring
Currently, beam_clean:clean_labels/1 will rewrite the compact
representation to the final representation. That is unfortunate
since clean_labels/1 is called by beam_dead, which means that
the less compact representation will be introduced long before
it is actually needed by beam_asm. It will also complicate any
optimizations that we might want to do.
Move the rewriting of bs_match_string from beam_clean:clean_labels/1
to the beam_z pass, which is the last pass executed before
beam_validator and beam_asm.

Commit b76588fb5a introduced an optimization of the compile time of
huge functions with many bs_match_string instructions. The
optimization is done in two passes. The first pass coalesces adjacent
bs_match_string instructions. To avoid copying bitstrings multiple
times, the bitstrings in the instructions are combined in to a (deep)
list. The second pass goes through all instructions in the function
and combines the list of bitstrings to a single bitstring in all
bs_match_string instructions.
The second pass (fix_bs_match_string) is run on all instructions in
each function, even if there are no bs_match_instructions in the
function. While fix_bs_match_string is not a bottleneck (it is a
linear pass), its execution time is noticeable when profiling some
modules.
Move the execution of the second pass to the select_binary()
function so that it will only be executed for instructions that
do binary matching. Also take the opportunity to optimize away
uses of bs_restore2 that occour directly after a bs_save2. That
optimimization is currently done in beam_block, but it can be
done essentially for free in the same pass that fixes up
bs_match_string instructions.
|
|
Profiling shows that the execution time for "turning" y registers
is noticeable for some modules (e.g. S1AP-PDU-Contents from the
asn1 test suite). We can reduce the impact on running time by
special-casing important instructions. In particular, there is
no need to look for y registers in the list argument for a
select_val instruction.
|
|
Profiling shows that subst_vsub/3 dominates the running time. It
is therefore worthwhile optimizing it.
|
|
As a minor optimization, eliminate unnecessary cons operations
in store/3, append/3, append_list/3, update/4, and update_counter/3.
|
|
To run eprof for a compiler pass:
erlc +'{eprof,beam_asm}' file.erl
The name of the compiler pass is the name as printed when
'time' option is used. It is usually, but not always, the module
name for the compiler pass.
|
|
Several compiler passes have unnecessary wrapper functions that
can be easily eliminated.
|
|
If we want to have test cases that run eprof, we must make sure that
there are no modules loaded that don't have a working module_info/1
function, since eprof calls module_info(functions) to retrieve the
list of functions in the module. Some test cases load modules compiled
from Core Erlang that don't have any module_info/1 functions, so
we will need make sure that all such modules have been unloaded.
Add z_SUITE:loaded/1 to run after all other test cases to verify that
all modules that the code server consider loaded are indeed loaded and
all have working module_info/0,1 functions.
|
|
For tidiness, always place .core files in data directories.
|
|
The .core or .S files that are compiled in the test cases
may lack module_info/0,1 functions, which will cause problems if
we (for example) try to run eprof later. To avoid that problem,
unload each module directly after testing it.

A warning for an unmatched return was introduced in aaa7c917.
The caller of openzip_close/1 ignores the return value, which
could be an error tuple. In this situation, handling a fatal
error, it is OK to ignore the return value; thus, we only need
to make it explicit that we are ignoring the return value.
|
|
pre TLS 1.2 server should ignore the signature_algorithms extension.
The server code would attempt to select the signature/hash algorithm
even when using TLS 1.0 or 1.1. Instead it should simply use the default
algorithm on those versions.

The configuration code which canonicalizes the operating system
name into OPSYS requires Linux to be spelled 'linux' or 'Linux'.
This is a problem in some build environments, e.g. RPM, which
supply --build and --host using the longer 'linux-gnu' spelling.
The effect is that OPSYS becomes 'noopsys' and some checks in
erts/configure.in do not work as expected, e.g. the auto-enabling
of HiPE may not happen.
Fixed by matching on 'linux*' not just 'linux'.
On ARM there are even longer variants such as 'linux-gnueabi' and
'linux-gnueabihf': these are also correctly mapped to 'linux' now.

Fix "Unbalanced parentheses" error when indenting particular map
constructs. Add new test cases for this fix.
To prevent infinite looping when the programmer mistakenly enters
incorrect syntax, detect cases where erlang-partial-parse fails to
advance when called within a loop, and raise an "Illegal syntax"
error.

* ia/public_key/bitstring/OTP-12110:

Erlang bitstring type only uses as many bits as required, and
does not use padding to create complete bytes as ASN1 compact_bitstring
did. crypto:verify/5 will now fail, for some incorrect signatures
as it expects complete bytes which an incorrect signature may not have.
Instead of catching the failing crypto function and then returning
false we check the input and reject it right away.
|
|
* E.I bitstrings will not be decode as {Unused, Binary}, they are now
Erlang bitstrings.
* Also the compact_bit_string implies the legacy_erlang_types switch
- So removing the switch will also make OCTET STRING values be represented
as binaries.
- Undecoded open type will now be wrapped in a asn1_OPENTYPE tuple.
We need to handle this in pubkey_pbe.erl, maybe this can be eliminated
later by updating/refreshing ASN1-specs.
This will change some values in records returned by the public_key API
making this change a potentiall incompatibility.
