Tuple funs were deprecated in R15B (in commit a4029940e309518f5500).

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.

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.

The hybrid heap emulator was last working in the non-SMP R11B
run-time system. When the constant pools were introduced in R12B,
the hybrid heap emulator was not updated to handle them.
At this point, the harm from reduced readability of the code is
greater than any potential usefulness of keeping the code.

It seems useful to be able to filter out (for example) just
the global calls.

User tags in a dynamic trace enabled VM are spread throughout the system
in the same way as seq_trace tokens. This is used by the file module
and various other modules to get hold of the tag from the user process
without changing the protocol.

Add probes to the virtual machine, except (mostly) the efile_drv.c
driver and other file I/O-related source files.

a warning.

No semantic change, just code clarification.
Use unique macro names instead of redefining the original ones.

* rickard/thr-progress-block/OTP-9631:
Replace system block with thread progress block
|
|
The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by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.

For cleanliness, store the trap address in p->i instead of in
p->def_arg_reg[3].
|
|
Store arguments for a trap in the X register array to allow
traps to have any number of arguments.
|
|
Taking advantage of the new calling convention for BIFs, we
only need one instruction to handle BIFs with any number of
arguments. This change eliminates the limit of three arguments
for BIFs, but traps are still limited to three arguments.
|
|
The current calling convention for BIFs makes it necessary to
handle each arity specially, since each argument for the BIF
also becomes an argument for the C function implementing the BIF,
which makes it hard to allow BIFs with any number of arguments.
Change the calling convention for BIFs, so that BIF arguments are
passed in an array to the C function implementing the BIF.
|
|
As a preparation for changing the calling convention for
BIFs, make sure that all BIFs use the macros. Also, eliminate
all calls from one BIF to another, since that also breaks
the calling convention abstraction.

* bjorn/unicode-noncharacters/OTP-9624:
Allow noncharacter code points in unicode encoding and decoding
|
|
The two noncharacter code points 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF were not
allowed to be encoded or decoded using the unicode module or
bit syntax. That causes an inconsistency, since the noncharacters
16#FDD0 to 16#FDEF could be encoded/decoded.
There is two ways to fix that inconsistency.
We have chosen to allow 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF to be encoded and
decoded, because the noncharacters could be useful internally
within an application and it will make encoding and decoding
slightly faster.

In the handling of generic instructions, we used to always
test whether the instruction was 'too_old_compiler' and abort
loading with a special error message.
Refactor the code so that we only do test if we an error
has occurred. That will allow us to make the test more expensive
in the future, allowing us to customize error messages for certain
opcode without any cost in the successful case.

The hybrid-heap emulator is broken since R12, so there is no
need to keep those instructions.
|
|
In the half-word emulator, smp emulator, and non-smp emulator
the X register and float register arrays were allocated in
different ways.
Always allocate the registers and store the pointers to the
allocated register arrays in the scheduler data.

Put the actual saving of the continuation pointers on the stack
in the new function erts_save_stacktrace() so that it can be reused.
The code is too tricky and complicated to allow it to
become duplicated.
|
|
|
|
As a preparation for providing information about the source
location for an MFA item in an exception stacktrace, refactor
the code that builds the exception stacktrace. Basically we
need two passes over the saved continuation counters: a first
pass to calculate the needed heap space and a second pass to
actually build the stacktrace.
|
|
This commit is a preparation for introducing location information
(filename/line number) in stacktraces in exceptions. Currently
a stack trace looks like:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN}]
Add a forth element to each tuple that can be used indication
the filename and line number of the source file:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1,Location1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN,LocationN}]
In this commit, the fourth element will just be an empty list,
and we will change all code that look at or manipulate stacktraces.

Introduce the line/1 instruction in the compiler and the BEAM
virtual machine. It will not yet be generated by the compiler and
will not actually carry any information.
