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.
2012-06-25Change the data structures for breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
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.

2012-05-10Remove stale code for hybrid heap and incremental GCBjörn Gustavsson
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.

* 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The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system.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.
2011-10-26Store the trap address in p->iBjörn Gustavsson
For cleanliness, store the trap address in p->i instead of in p->def_arg_reg[3].
2011-10-26Store the trap arguments in the X register arrayBjörn Gustavsson
Store arguments for a trap in the X register array to allow traps to have any number of arguments.
2011-10-26Simplify the instructions for calling BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2011-10-26Change the calling convention for BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2011-10-26Use the proper macros in all BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
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
2011-10-13Allow noncharacter code points in unicode encoding and decodingBjörn Gustavsson
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.

2011-10-11Refactor 'too_old_compiler' handlingBjörn Gustavsson
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.
