According to EEP-43 for maps, a 'badmap' exception should be
generated when an attempt is made to update non-map term such as:
<<>>#{a=>42}
That was not implemented in the OTP 17.
José Valim suggested that we should take the opportunity to
improve the errors coming from map operations:
http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2015-February/083588.html
This commit implement better errors from map operations similar
to his suggestion.
When a map update operation (Map#{...}) or a BIF that expects a map
is given a non-map term, the exception will be:
{badmap,Term}
This kind of exception is similar to the {badfun,Term} exception
from operations that expect a fun.
When a map operation requires a key that is not present in a map,
the following exception will be raised:
{badkey,Key}
José Valim suggested that the exception should be
{badkey,Key,Map}. We decided not to do that because the map
could potentially be huge and cause problems if the error
propagated through links to other processes.
For BIFs, it could be argued that the exceptions could be simply
'badmap' and 'badkey', because the bad map and bad key can be found in
the argument list for the BIF in the stack backtrace. However, for the
map update operation (Map#{...}), the bad map or bad key will not be
included in the stack backtrace, so that information must be included
in the exception reason itself. For consistency, the BIFs should raise
the same exceptions as update operation.
If more than one key is missing, it is undefined which of
keys that will be reported in the {badkey,Key} exception.

The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with
erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many
unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together
and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as
accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need
to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality
over multiple functions in order to improve on this.
The new API consists of a number of new BIFs:
- erlang:convert_time_unit/3
- erlang:monotonic_time/0
- erlang:monotonic_time/1
- erlang:system_time/0
- erlang:system_time/1
- erlang:time_offset/0
- erlang:time_offset/1
- erlang:timestamp/0
- erlang:unique_integer/0
- erlang:unique_integer/1
- os:system_time/0
- os:system_time/1
and a number of extensions of existing BIFs:
- erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service)
- erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize)
- erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source)
- erlang:system_info(time_offset)
- erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode)
- erlang:system_info(time_correction)
- erlang:system_info(start_time)
See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the
ERTS User's Guide for more information.

Add support for setting the number of dirty CPU schedulers online via
erlang:system_flag/2. Assuming the emulator is built with dirty schedulers
enabled, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online may not be less than 1,
nor greater than the number of dirty CPU schedulers available, nor greater
than the number of normal schedulers online. Dirty CPU scheduler threads
that are taken offline via system_flag/2 are suspended. The number of dirty
CPU schedulers online may be adjusted independently of the number of normal
schedulers online, but if system_flag/2 is used to set the number of normal
schedulers online to a value less than the current number of normal
schedulers online, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is decreased
proportionally. Likewise, if the number of normal schedulers online is
increased, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is increased
proportionally. For example, if 8 normal schedulers and 4 dirty CPU
schedulers are online, and system_flag/2 is called to set the number of
normal schedulers online to 4, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is
also decreased by half, to 2. Subsequently setting the number of normal
schedulers online back to 8 also sets the number of dirty CPU schedulers
online back to 4. Augment the system_flag/2 documentation in the erlang man
page to explain this relationship between schedulers_online and
dirty_cpu_schedulers_online.
Also ensure that all dirty CPU and I/O schedulers are suspended when
multi-scheduling is blocked via system_flag/2, and brought back online when
multi-scheduling is unblocked.
Add Rickard Green's rewritten check_enqueue_in_prio_queue() function that
inspects process state more thoroughly to determine if to enqueue it and if
so on what queue, including dirty queues when appropriate.
Make sure dirty NIF jobs do not trigger erlang:system_monitor long_schedule
messages.
Add more dirty scheduler testing to the scheduler test suite.
Remove the erts_no_dirty_cpu_schedulers_online global variable, since it's
no longer needed.
Execute dirty NIFs on a normal scheduler thread while multi-scheduling
blocking is in effect. Evacuate any dirty jobs residing in the dirty run
queues over to a normal run queue when multi-scheduling is blocked.
Allow dirty schedulers to execute aux work.
Set the dirty run queues halt_in_progress flag when halting the normal
schedulers.
Change dirty scheduler numbers to a structure including both scheduler
number and type, either dirty CPU or dirty I/O. Add some assertions to
ensure that dirty CPU schedulers operate only on dirty CPU scheduler
process flags, and the same for dirty I/O schedulers.

A process requesting a system task to be executed in the context of
another process will be notified by a message when the task has
executed. This message will be on the form:
{RequestType, RequestId, Pid, Result}.
A process requesting a system task to be executed can set priority
on the system task. The requester typically set the same priority
on the task as its own process priority, and by this avoiding
priority inversion. A request for execution of a system task is
made by calling the statically linked in NIF
erts_internal:request_system_task(Pid, Prio, Request). This is an
undocumented ERTS internal function that should remain so. It
should *only* be called from BIF implementations.
Currently defined system tasks are:
* garbage_collect
* check_process_code
Further system tasks can and will be implemented in the future.
The erlang:garbage_collect/[1,2] and erlang:check_process_code/[2,3]
BIFs are now implemented using system tasks. Both the
'garbage_collect' and the 'check_process_code' operations perform
or may perform garbage_collections. By doing these via the
system task functionality all garbage collect operations in the
system will be performed solely in the context of the process
being garbage collected. This makes it possible to later implement
functionality for disabling garbage collection of a process over
context switches.
Newly introduced BIFs:
* erlang:garbage_collect/2 - The new second argument is an option
list. Introduced option:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous garbage collect requests.
* erlang:check_process_code/3 - The new third argument is an
option list. Introduced options:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous check process code requests.
* {allow_gc, boolean()} - making it possible to issue requests
that aren't allowed to garbage collect (operation will abort
if gc should be needed).
These options have been introduced as a preparation for
parallelization of check_process_code operations when the
code_server is about to purge a module.

Minor spelling correction

|

Rewrite and extend of Happi's initial work
Extra_root to process structure to enable GC of state - Changed the
process structure to point to a separate struct, the struct also
contains a destructor function to allow for proper cleanup.
Rewrote encode_size_struct and enc_term to have internal versions with
reduction counters which will result in interrupt for later restart
when the counter reaches zero - removed the EWA_STACK from Happis
version and directly save the ESTACK's and WSTACK's in the above
mentioned struct (or array thereof) that are pointed out from the
process structure. The destructor will take care of the deallocation
in case of process death.
Added ESTACK and WSTACK macros to save and restore stack and to change
allocator, which makes the previously mentioned stack-save work.
Rewrote enc_term to not store pointers on the stack, and use one WSTACK
for commands etc and another ESTACK for Eterms - Slightly different than
Happis version to make halfword code simpler.
Rewrote encode_size_struct2 so that it does not store pointers on the
stack, also switched to ESTACK instead of WSTACK, this also handles
halfword correctly.
Added interfaces for chunkwise compression, that are
used from term_to_binary/2 when the compressed option is given.

The fix affects list_dir and read_link. Raw filenames are now
never produced, just consumed even if +fnu or +fna is used on
Linux etc.
This also adds the options to get error return or error handler
warning messages with +fn{u|a}{i|w|e} as an option to erl.
This is still not documented and there needs to be other versions
of read_dir and read_link to facilitate reading of all types
of filenames and links.
A check that we will not change to an invalid directory is also needed.

This BIF solves a problem of float_to_list/1 that doesn't allow
specifying the number of digits after the decimal point when
formatting floats.
float_to_list(Float, Options) -> string()
Float = float()
Options = [Option]
Option = {decimals, Decimals::0..249} |
{scientific, Decimals::0..249} |
compact
Returns a string which corresponds to the text representation of
a `Float` formatted using given options.
When decimals option is specified the returned value will contain
at most `Decimals` number of digits past the decimal point.
When `compact` option is provided the trailing zeros at the end
of the list are truncated (this option is only meaningful together
with the `decimals` option). When `scientific` option is provided,
the float will be formatted using scientific notation with
`Decimals` digits of precision. If `Options` is `[]` the function
behaves like `float_to_list/1`. When using `decimals` option and
the number doesn't fit in the static internal buffer of 256 bytes
the function throws `badarg`.

A number of memory allocation optimizations have been implemented. Most
optimizations reduce contention caused by synchronization between
threads during allocation and deallocation of memory. Most notably:
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific allocator
instances has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific
pre-allocators has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use scheduler specific
instances instead of one instance. Apart from reducing contention
this also ensures that memory allocators always create memory
segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.

Added erlang:system_info(build_type) which makes it
easier to chose drivers, NIF libraries, etc based
on build type of the runtime system.
|
|
Large parts of the ethread library have been rewritten. The
ethread library is an Erlang runtime system internal, portable
thread library used by the runtime system itself.
Most notable improvement is a reader optimized rwlock
implementation which dramatically improve the performance of
read-lock/read-unlock operations on multi processor systems by
avoiding ping-ponging of the rwlock cache lines. The reader
optimized rwlock implementation is used by miscellaneous
rwlocks in the runtime system that are known to be read-locked
frequently, and can be enabled on ETS tables by passing the
`{read_concurrency, true}' option upon table creation. See the
documentation of `ets:new/2' for more information.
The ethread library can now also use the libatomic_ops library
for atomic memory accesses. This makes it possible for the
Erlang runtime system to utilize optimized atomic operations
on more platforms than before. Use the
`--with-libatomic_ops=PATH' configure command line argument
when specifying where the libatomic_ops installation is
located. The libatomic_ops library can be downloaded from:
http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/
The changed API of the ethread library has also caused
modifications in the Erlang runtime system. Preparations for
the to come "delayed deallocation" feature has also been done
since it depends on the ethread library.
Note: When building for x86, the ethread library will now use
instructions that first appeared on the pentium 4 processor. If
you want the runtime system to be compatible with older
processors (back to 486) you need to pass the
`--enable-ethread-pre-pentium4-compatibility' configure command
line argument when configuring the system.
