2017-03-28erts: Fix erts_debug:df function info outputLukas Larsson
The func_info instruction should also be dumped, so that we know which function is which in the dump. This was accidentally removed when introducing the new codeinfo/codemfa api.

2016-11-17erts: Refactor crash dumping with cbprintfSverker Eriksson
Instead of passing around a file descriptor use a function pointer to facilitate more advanced backend write logic such as size limitation or compression.

2016-10-12erts: Refactor out func_info into structLukas Larsson
This commit adds two new structs to be used to represent erlang code in erts. ErtsCodeInfo is used to describe the i_func_info header that is part of all Export entries and the prelude of each function. This replaces all the BeamInstr * that were previously used to point to these locations. After this change the code should never use BeamInstr * with offsets to figure out different parts of the func_info header. ErtsCodeMFA is a struct that is used to descripe a MFA in code. It is used within ErtsCodeInfo and also in Process->current. All function that previously took Eterm * or BeamInstr * to identify a MFA now use the ErtsCodeMFA or ErtsCodeInfo where appropriate. The code has been tested to work when adding a new field to the ErtsCodeInfo struct, but some updates are needed in ops.tab to make it work.

Using the translation table in erts_gc_bifs[], we can now print out the name of GC BIFs, instead of just the pointer value.

The TMPBUF option is no longer needed due to is_literal test and NONE was only used for initial debugging. So we remove the entire option.

This commit is just for debugging purposes, will probably be reverted. It comes with a the erts_debug:copy_shared/1 BIF. If SHCOPY_DISABLE is defined, SHCOPY starts disabled and is dynamically enabled the first time that the BIF is called.

* maint: Fix crash when disassembling modules with BIFs
2015-07-08Fix crash when disassembling modules with BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
In a debug-compiled emulator, running erts_debug:df(io) would trigger an assertion failure: 1> erts_debug:df(io). beam/beam_debug.c:301:erts_debug_disassemble_1() Assertion failed: (((funcinfo[0]) & 0x3F) == ((0x0 << 4) | ((0x2 << 2) | 0x3))) Aborted (core dumped) It turns out that the assertion is wrong. It should have been updated in 64ccd8c9b7a7 which made it possible to have stubs for BIFs in the BEAM code for a module. The faulty assertion was only found when when 16317f73f79265 added a smoke test of the BEAM disassembler.
2015-07-03Use a cheaper tag scheme for 'd' operandsBjörn Gustavsson
Since 'd' operands can only either an X register or an Y register, we only need a single bit to distinguish them. Furthermore, we can pre-multiply the register number with the word size to speed up address calculation.
2015-07-03Make the 'r' operand type optionalBjörn Gustavsson
The 'r' type is now mandatory. That means in order to handle both of the following instructions: move x(0) y(7) move x(1) y(7) we would need to define two specific operations in ops.tab: move r y move x y We want to make 'r' operands optional. That is, if we have only this specific instruction: move x y it will match both of the following instructions: move x(0) y(7) move x(1) y(7) Make 'r' optional allows us to save code space when we don't want to make handling of x(0) a special case, but we can still use 'r' to optimize commonly used instructions.
2015-07-03Allow X and Y registers to be overloaded with any literalBjörn Gustavsson
Consider the try_case_end instruction: try_case_end s The 's' operand type means that the operand can either be a literal of one of the types atom, integer, or empty list, or a register. That worked well before R12. In R12 additional types of literals where introduced. Because of way the overloading was done, an 's' operand cannot handle the new types of literals. Therefore, code such as the following is necessary in ops.tab to avoid giving an 's' operand a literal: try_case_end Literal=q => move Literal x | try_case_end x While this work, it is error-prone in that it is easy to forget to add that kind of rule. It would also be complicated in case we wanted to introduce a new kind of addition operator such as: i_plus jssd Since there are two 's' operands, two scratch registers and two 'move' instructions would be needed. Therefore, we'll need to find a smarter way to find tag register operands. We will overload the pid and port tags for X and Y register, respectively. That works because pids and port are immediate values (fit in one word), and there are no literals for pids and ports.

2015-06-17erts: Fix erts_debug:df/1 in debugBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Sentinels in select_tuple_arity instructions are not proper tuple arities and thus cannot be checked in debug. Print them as small integers instead.
2015-04-13De-optimize the has_map_fields instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
The has_map_fields instruction is infrequently used. Thus there is no need to have the fastest possible implementation; it is better to have an implementation that reduces the code size in the already big process_main() function. We can transform has_map_fields to a get_map_elements instruction, targeting the same unused x[0] register for all keys. That instruction will only be marginally slower than existing implementation.
2015-04-13Remove the fail label operand of the new_map instructionBjörn Gustavsson
The new_map instruction cannot fail, and thus needs no fail label.
2014-12-05erts: Use linear search for small select_val arraysBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
For searching a key in an array we use linear search in arrays up to 10 elements. Selecting on tuple arity will always use linear search. Instead of using two different instructions we assume selecting on different tuple arities are always few in numbers.
2014-02-19erts: Fix erts_debug:disassemble/1Björn-Egil Dahlberg

2012-06-25Don't go to single-scheduler mode when managing breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2012-06-25Refactor the code for managing breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2012-02-23erts: Refactor code loading with renamingSverker Eriksson
Rename lock_code_ix as seize_code_write_permission. Don't want to call it a "lock" as it can be held between schedulings and different threads and is not managed by lock checker. Rename "activate" staging as "commit" staging. Why not be consistent and use git terminology all the way.
2012-02-23erts: Seize code_ix lock when updating trace settingsSverker Eriksson
We want to avoid the race when trace settings are done in the time gap while a code stager process is waiting for thread process before commiting and releasing code_ix lock.

* rickard/thr-progress-block/OTP-9631: Replace system block with thread progress block
2011-11-13Replace system block with thread progress blockRickard Green
The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system. The old system block functionality had contention issues and complexity issues. The new functionality piggy-backs on thread progress tracking functionality needed by newly introduced lock-free synchronization in the runtime system. When the functionality for blocking the system isn't used there is more or less no overhead at all. This since the functionality for tracking thread progress is there and needed anyway.
