2018-01-03Replace the libc environment with a thread-safe emulationJohn Högberg
putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before) keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3) without honoring our lock. This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.

2017-11-30Reimplement efile_drv as a dirty NIFJohn Högberg
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. -- OTP-14256

2017-11-20stdlib: Make io_lib and io_lib_pretty use maps iteratorLukas Larsson
2017-11-20erts: Implement batching maps:iteratorLukas Larsson
This iterator implementation fetches multiple elements to iterate over in one call to erts_internal:maps_next instead of one at a time. This means that the memory usage will go up for the iterator as we are buffering elements, but the usage is still bounded. In this implementation the max memory usage is 1000 words. Using this approach makes the iterator as fast as using maps:to_list, so maps:iterator/2 has been removed.

2017-07-06Introduce a new core pass called sys_core_aliasJosé Valim
The goal of this pass is to find values that are built from patterns and generate aliases for those values to remove pressure from the GC. For example, this code: example({ok, Val}) -> {ok, Val}. shall become: example({ok, Val} = Tuple) -> Tuple. Currently this pass aliases tuple and cons nodes made of literals, variables and other cons. The tuple/cons may appear anywhere in the pattern and it will be aliased if used later on. Notice a tuple/cons made only of literals is not aliased as it may be part of the literal pool.
