2018-11-20Allow disabling retpoline in interpreter loopJohn Högberg
We only do this when the user has explicitly told us it's okay to partially disable mitigation (spectre-mitigation=incomplete). The macro is inert if it isn't.

2017-02-06Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMPRickard Green
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()

2016-08-29Fix tracing of processes executing dirtyRickard Green
2016-08-29Fix purge of codeRickard Green
Ensure that we cannot get any dangling pointers into code that has been purged. This is done by a two phase purge. At first phase all fun entries pointing into the code to purge are marked for purge. All processes trying to call these funs will be suspended and by this we avoid getting new direct references into the code. When all processes has been checked, these processes are resumed. The new purge strategy now also completely ignore the existence of indirect references to the code (funs). If such exist, they will cause bad fun exceptions to the caller, but will not prevent a soft purge or cause a kill of a process having such live references during a hard purge. This since it is impossible to give any guarantees that no processes in the system have such indirect references. Even when the system is completely clean from such references, new ones can appear via distribution and/or disk.

2016-05-10erts: Implement max_heap_size process flagLukas Larsson
The max_heap_size process flag can be used to limit the growth of a process heap by killing it before it becomes too large to handle. It is possible to set the maximum using the `erl +hmax` option, `system_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`, `spawn_opt(Fun, [{max_heap_size, ...}])` and `process_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`. It is possible to configure the behaviour of the process when the maximum heap size is reached. The process may be sent an untrappable exit signal with reason kill and/or send an error_logger message with details on the process state. A new trace event called gc_max_heap_size is also triggered for the garbage_collection trace flag when the heap grows larger than the configured size. If kill and error_logger are disabled, it is still possible to see that the maximum has been reached by doing garbage collection tracing on the process. The heap size is defined as the sum of the heap memory that the process is currently using. This includes all generational heaps, the stack, any messages that are considered to be part of the heap and any extra memory the garbage collector may need during collection. In the current implementation this means that when a process is set using on_heap message queue data mode, the messages that are in the internal message queue are counted towards this value. For off_heap, only matched messages count towards the size of the heap. For mixed, it depends on race conditions within the VM whether a message is part of the heap or not. Below is an example run of the new behaviour: Eshell V8.0 (abort with ^G) 1> f(P),P = spawn_opt(fun() -> receive ok -> ok end end, [{max_heap_size, 512}]). <0.60.0> 2> erlang:trace(P, true, [garbage_collection, procs]). 1 3> [P ! lists:duplicate(M,M) || M <- lists:seq(1,15)],ok. ok 4> =ERROR REPORT==== 26-Apr-2016::16:25:10 === Process: <0.60.0> Context: maximum heap size reached Max heap size: 512 Total heap size: 723 Kill: true Error Logger: true GC Info: [{old_heap_block_size,0}, {heap_block_size,609}, {mbuf_size,145}, {recent_size,0}, {stack_size,9}, {old_heap_size,0}, {heap_size,211}, {bin_vheap_size,0}, {bin_vheap_block_size,46422}, {bin_old_vheap_size,0}, {bin_old_vheap_block_size,46422}] flush().

2016-04-15erts: Implement tracer modulesLukas Larsson
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. OTP-10267
2016-04-14Optimize get_tuple_element instructions that target Y registersBjörn Gustavsson
Several improvements in the compiler (e.g. c288ab87fd6) has lead to an Y register being the target for get_tuple_element instructions. Therefore, introduce i_get_tuple_element2y that combines two consecutive get_tuple_element instructions that target Y registers.

2016-04-08Simplify the raise instruction to reduce code sizeBjörn Gustavsson
The raise/2 instruction is almost always used like this: raise x(2) x(1) Therefore, we can translate it to an internal i_raise/0 instruction that uses x(2) x(1) as its implicit operands. We will also remove the backward compatibility with R10-0. It is unlikely that anyone still is using BEAM files compiled with the R10-0 compiler, especially since most of those modules cannot be loaded. The loader will refuse to load any module that uses the old non-GCIng arithmetic instructions or the non-GCing versions of length/1 or size/1. Doing these changes will reduce both the size of the loaded BEAM code and size of the code in process_main().
2016-04-07Eliminate unnecessary renaming of bs_put_utf16/3Björn Gustavsson
There is no reason to rename bs_put_utf16/3. (We rename instructions if we'll need to change the operands or if we will need to avoid an endless transformation loop. Neither of these reasons apply to bs_put_utf16/3.)

* jv/erts/optimize-cmp: Unify comparison macros in erl_utils.h Avoid erts_cmp jump in atom, int and float comparisons
2016-02-15Avoid erts_cmp jump in atom, int and float comparisonsJosé Valim
Given the function definition below: check(X) when X >= 0, X <= 20 -> true. @nox has originally noticed that perfoming lt and ge guard tests were performing slower than they should be. Further investigation revealed that most of the cost was in jumping to the erts_cmp function. This patch brings the operations already inlined in erts_cmp into the emulator, removing the jump cost. After applying these changes, invoking the check/1 function defined above 30000 times with different values from 0 to 20 has fallen from 367us to 213us (measured as average of 3 runs). This is a considerably improvement over Erlang 18 which takes 556us on average. Floats have also dropped their time from 1126us (on Erlang 18) to 613us.
