This improves the latency of file operations as dirty schedulers
are a bit more eager to run jobs than async threads, and use a
single global queue rather than per-thread queues, eliminating the
risk of a job stalling behind a long-running job on the same thread
while other async threads sit idle.
There's no such thing as a free lunch though; the lowered latency
comes at the cost of increased busy-waiting which may have an
adverse effect on some applications. This behavior can be tweaked
with the +sbwt flag, but unfortunately it affects all types of
schedulers and not just dirty ones. We plan to add type-specific
flags at a later stage.
sendfile has been moved to inet_drv to lessen the effect of a nasty
race; the cooperation between inet_drv and efile has never been
airtight and the socket dying at the wrong time (Regardless of
reason) could result in fd aliasing. Moving it to the inet driver
makes it impossible to trigger this by closing the socket in the
middle of a sendfile operation, while still allowing it to be
aborted -- something that can't be done if it stays in the file
driver.
The race still occurs if the controlling process dies in the short
window between dispatching the sendfile operation and the dup(2)
call in the driver, but it's much less likely to happen now.
A proper fix is in the works.

Notable functional differences:
* The use_threads option for file:sendfile/5 no longer has any
effect.
* The file-specific DTrace probes have been removed. The same
effect can be achieved with normal tracing together with the
nif__entry/nif__return probes to track scheduling.

by introducing hipe_bifs:commit_patch_load/1
that creates the HipeModule.
|
|
|
|
Just like the BEAM loader state (as returned by
erlang:prepare_loading/2), the HiPE loader state is contained in a magic
binary.
Eventually, we will separate HiPE loading into a prepare and a finalise
phase, like the BEAM loader, where the prepare phase will be implemented
by hipe_unified_loader and the finalise phase be implemented in C by
hipe_load.c and beam_load.c, making prepare side-effect free and
finalise atomic. The finalise phase will be exposed through the
erlang:finish_loading/1 API, just like the BEAM loader, as this will
allow HiPE and BEAM modules to be mixed in the same atomic "commit".
The usage of a loader state makes it easier to keep track of all
resources allocated during loading, and will not only make it easy to
prevent leaks when hipe_unified_loader crashes, but also paves the way
for proper, leak-free, unloading of HiPE modules.

A step toward better integration of hipe load and purge
Highlights:
* code_server no longer needs to call hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1
Instead new internal function hipe_redirect_to_module()
is called by loading BIFs to patch native call sites if needed.
* hipe_purge_module() is called by erts_internal:purge_module/2
to purge any native code.
* struct hipe_mfa_info redesigned and only used for exported
functions that are called from or implemented by native code.
A list of native call sites (struct hipe_ref) are kept for each hipe_mfa_info.
* struct hipe_sdesc used by hipe_find_mfa_from_ra()
to build native stack traces.
