* rickard/binary-refc:
Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMP
Conflicts:
erts/emulator/beam/beam_bp.c
|
|
NIF resources was not handled in a thread-safe manner in the runtime
system without SMP support.
As a consequence of this fix, the following driver functions are now
thread-safe also in the runtime system without SMP support:
- driver_free_binary()
- driver_realloc_binary()
- driver_binary_get_refc()
- driver_binary_inc_refc()
- driver_binary_dec_refc()

- Termination of a process...
- Modify trace flags of process...
- Process info on process...
- Register/unregister of name on process...
- Set group leader on process...
... while it is executing a dirty NIF.

with uppercase for constants
and why not call them 'RESTART' and 'PAUSE' as the API.

Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions
in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be
very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example).
This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always
being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be
the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that
is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and
TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and
port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API.
This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the
potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed
indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other
trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved
for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive)
the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the
trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so
trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp
out of order.
Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer
module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments.

Calls to erlang:set_trace_pattern/3 will no longer block all
other schedulers.
We will still go to single-scheduler mode when new code is loaded
for a module that is traced, or when loading code when there is a
default trace pattern set. That is not impossible to fix, but that
requires much closer cooperation between tracing BIFs and the loader
BIFs.

To allow us to manage breakpoints without going to single-scheduler
mode, we will need to update the breakpoints in several stages with
memory barriers in between each stage. Prepare for that by splitting
up the breakpoint setting and clearing functions into several smaller
functions.
|
|
Change the data structures for breakpoints to make it possible
(in a future commit) to manage breakpoints without taking down the
system to single-scheduling mode.
The current "breakpoint wheel" data structure (a circular,
double-linked list of breakpoints) was invented before the
SMP emulator. To support it in the SMP emulator, there is essentially
one breakpoint wheel per scheduler. As more breakpoint types have
been added, the implementation has become messy and hard to understand
and maintain.
Therefore, the time for a rewrite has come. Use one struct to hold
all breakpoint data for a breakpoint in a function. Use a flag field
to indicate what different type of break actions that are enabled.

Inlining was not done in a portable way. clang follows the C99
semantics for inlining ('inline' essentially implies 'static' in
C99, but not in GCC), so bp_sched2ix() was not visible outside
beam_bp.c. Since the function need to be used from more than one
source file, put the function definition in the beam_bp.h header
file. Also, give it an 'erts_' prefix since it is globally visible.
|
|
All uses of the old deprecated atomic API in the runtime system
have been replaced with the use of the new atomic API. In a lot of
places this change imply a relaxation of memory barriers used.

Call count previously used a global lock for accessing and writing
its counter in the breakpoint. This is now changed to atomics instead.
The change will let call count tracing and cprof to scale better
when increasing the number of schedulers.
|
|
To solve the issue of multiple schedulers constantly updating the
head pointer to the bp data wheel, each scheduler now has its own
entrypoint to the wheel. This head pointer can be updated without
a locking being taken. Previously there were no lock ...

call_time trace will use instruction pointers instead of
breakpoint data pointers. More costly lookup but the bdt
structure might be deallocated, we do not want that.
Remove unnecessary pattern lock.

|
Call time breakpoint tracing traces per call trace per process.
- Add hashes to support the extra dimension.
- Teach trace_info/2 to handle the extra information dimension.

Initial commit with a new breakpoint instruction and PSD areas
for temporary time storage during tracing.

* pan/otp_8332_halfword:
Teach testcase in driver_suite the new prototype for driver_async
wx: Correct usage of driver callbacks from wx thread
Adopt the new (R13B04) Nif functionality to the halfword codebase
Support monitoring and demonitoring from driver threads
Fix further test-suite problems
Correct the VM to work for more test suites
Teach {wordsize,internal|external} to system_info/1

Fix the BEAM dissambler for the half-word emulator
Store pointers to heap data in 32-bit words
Add a custom mmap wrapper to force heaps into the lower address range
Fit all heap data into the 32-bit address range
|
|
For cleanliness, use BeamInstr instead of the UWord
data type to any machine-sized words that are used
for BEAM instructions. Only use UWord for untyped
words in general.
|

Store Erlang terms in 32-bit entities on the heap, expanding the
pointers to 64-bit when needed. This works because all terms are stored
on addresses in the 32-bit address range (the 32 most significant bits
of pointers to term data are always 0).
Introduce a new datatype called UWord (along with its companion SWord),
which is an integer having the exact same size as the machine word
(a void *), but might be larger than Eterm/Uint.
Store code as machine words, as the instructions are pointers to
executable code which might reside outside the 32-bit address range.
Continuation pointers are stored on the 32-bit stack and hence must
point to addresses in the low range, which means that loaded beam code
much be placed in the low 32-bit address range (but, as said earlier,
the instructions themselves are full words).
No Erlang term data can be stored on C stacks (enforced by an
earlier commit).
This version gives a prompt, but test cases still fail (and dump core).
The loader (and emulator loop) has instruction packing disabled.
The main issues has been in rewriting loader and actual virtual
machine. Subsystems (like distribution) does not work yet.
