* sverker/crash-dump-crash-literals/OTP-15181:
erts: Fix bug in crash dump generation
|
|
Symptom: emulator core dumps during crash dump generation.
Problem:
erts_dump_lit_areas did not grow correctly
to always be equal or larger than number of loaded modules.
The comment about twice the size to include both curr and old
did not seem right. The beam_ranges structure contains *all* loaded
module instances until they are removed when purged.

* maint:
Fix encoding of filenames in stacktraces
|
|
|
|
* maint:
Bump version of crash dumps to 0.4
Verify that binaries of different sizes are dumped correctly
Don't dump literal areas that are not referenced at all
Dump literals separately to avoid incomplete heap data
Implement dumping of maps in crash dumps
Buffer writing of crash dumps

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.

The BIFs prepare_loading/2 and finish_loading/1 have been
designed to allow fast loading in parallel of many modules.
Because of the complications with on_load functions,
the initial implementation of finish_loading/1 only allowed
a single element in the list of prepared modules.
finish_loading/1 does not suspend other processes, but it must wait
for all schedulers to pass a write barrier ("thread progress"). The
time for all schedulers to pass the write barrier is highly variable,
depending on what kind of code they are executing. Therefore, allowing
finish_loading/1 to finish the loading for more than one module before
passing the write barrier could potentially be much faster than
calling finish_loading/1 multiple times.
The test case many/1 run on my computer shows that with "heavy load",
finish loading of 100 modules in parallel is almost 50 times faster
than loading them sequentially. With "light load", the gain is still
almost 10 times.
Here follows an actual sample of the output from the test case on
my computer (an 2012 iMac):
Light load
==========
Sequential: 22361 µs
Parallel: 2586 µs
Ratio: 9
Heavy load
==========
Sequential: 254512 µs
Parallel: 5246 µs
Ratio: 49

Symptom: VM on OSX (darwin11.4.2) with +Meamin running sasl tests,
crashing when init:reboot() does erlang:purge_module(installer).
Problem: Off-by-one bug in beam_ranges:find_range, returning the wrong
range if the 'end' of one module is the 'start' of the next. This is only
possible if using sys_alloc (+Meamin) as our own allocators always put
block headers between allocated payload data.

Staging is a better and more general name as does not necessary need
to involve code loading (can be deletion, tracing, etc).

Having the entire implementation of range handling (address table)
in one source file will help when we'll need to update the ranges
without stopping all schedulers in the next commit.
