2015-11-12Fragmented young heap generation and off_heap_message_queue optionRickard Green
* The youngest generation of the heap can now consist of multiple blocks. Heap fragments and message fragments are added to the youngest generation when needed without triggering a GC. After a GC the youngest generation is contained in one single block. * The off_heap_message_queue process flag has been added. When enabled all message data in the queue is kept off heap. When a message is selected from the queue, the message fragment (or heap fragment) containing the actual message is attached to the youngest generation. Messages stored off heap is not part of GC.

2015-03-20Erlang based BIF timer implementation for scalabilityRickard Green
2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality over multiple functions in order to improve on this. The new API consists of a number of new BIFs: - erlang:convert_time_unit/3 - erlang:monotonic_time/0 - erlang:monotonic_time/1 - erlang:system_time/0 - erlang:system_time/1 - erlang:time_offset/0 - erlang:time_offset/1 - erlang:timestamp/0 - erlang:unique_integer/0 - erlang:unique_integer/1 - os:system_time/0 - os:system_time/1 and a number of extensions of existing BIFs: - erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service) - erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize) - erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source) - erlang:system_info(time_offset) - erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode) - erlang:system_info(time_correction) - erlang:system_info(start_time) See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

2014-05-12BIFs should be considered exportedBjörn Gustavsson
All BIFs now have stub functions and are exported. For example in the erlang module: -export([..., is_list/1, ...]). . . . is_list(_Term) -> erlang:nif_error(undefined). But erlang:function_exported(erlang, is_list, 1) returns false, which is weird. Change erlang:function_exported/3 to return true for BIFs.

2014-02-24Added support for ENEA OSELukas Larsson
This port has support for both non-smp and smp. It contains a new way to do io checking in which erts_poll_wait receives the payload of the polled entity. This has implications for all linked-in drivers.
2014-02-24further enhancements for dirty schedulersSteve Vinoski
Add support for setting the number of dirty CPU schedulers online via erlang:system_flag/2. Assuming the emulator is built with dirty schedulers enabled, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online may not be less than 1, nor greater than the number of dirty CPU schedulers available, nor greater than the number of normal schedulers online. Dirty CPU scheduler threads that are taken offline via system_flag/2 are suspended. The number of dirty CPU schedulers online may be adjusted independently of the number of normal schedulers online, but if system_flag/2 is used to set the number of normal schedulers online to a value less than the current number of normal schedulers online, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is decreased proportionally. Likewise, if the number of normal schedulers online is increased, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is increased proportionally. For example, if 8 normal schedulers and 4 dirty CPU schedulers are online, and system_flag/2 is called to set the number of normal schedulers online to 4, the number of dirty CPU schedulers online is also decreased by half, to 2. Subsequently setting the number of normal schedulers online back to 8 also sets the number of dirty CPU schedulers online back to 4. Augment the system_flag/2 documentation in the erlang man page to explain this relationship between schedulers_online and dirty_cpu_schedulers_online. Also ensure that all dirty CPU and I/O schedulers are suspended when multi-scheduling is blocked via system_flag/2, and brought back online when multi-scheduling is unblocked. Add Rickard Green's rewritten check_enqueue_in_prio_queue() function that inspects process state more thoroughly to determine if to enqueue it and if so on what queue, including dirty queues when appropriate. Make sure dirty NIF jobs do not trigger erlang:system_monitor long_schedule messages. Add more dirty scheduler testing to the scheduler test suite. Remove the erts_no_dirty_cpu_schedulers_online global variable, since it's no longer needed. Execute dirty NIFs on a normal scheduler thread while multi-scheduling blocking is in effect. Evacuate any dirty jobs residing in the dirty run queues over to a normal run queue when multi-scheduling is blocked. Allow dirty schedulers to execute aux work. Set the dirty run queues halt_in_progress flag when halting the normal schedulers. Change dirty scheduler numbers to a structure including both scheduler number and type, either dirty CPU or dirty I/O. Add some assertions to ensure that dirty CPU schedulers operate only on dirty CPU scheduler process flags, and the same for dirty I/O schedulers.

2014-01-15fix system_flag deprecation warningsSteve Vinoski
Passing cpu_topology or scheduler_bind_type to erlang:system_flag/2 results in an error report warning that the argument is deprecated and is slated for removal in erts-5.10/OTP-R16. Since we're already past that version and no substitute approach has yet been decided for these features, keep the deprecation warning but bump the removal version it mentions up to Erlang 18.

2013-11-18Execution of system tasks in context of another processRickard Green
A process requesting a system task to be executed in the context of another process will be notified by a message when the task has executed. This message will be on the form: {RequestType, RequestId, Pid, Result}. A process requesting a system task to be executed can set priority on the system task. The requester typically set the same priority on the task as its own process priority, and by this avoiding priority inversion. A request for execution of a system task is made by calling the statically linked in NIF erts_internal:request_system_task(Pid, Prio, Request). This is an undocumented ERTS internal function that should remain so. It should *only* be called from BIF implementations. Currently defined system tasks are: * garbage_collect * check_process_code Further system tasks can and will be implemented in the future. The erlang:garbage_collect/[1,2] and erlang:check_process_code/[2,3] BIFs are now implemented using system tasks. Both the 'garbage_collect' and the 'check_process_code' operations perform or may perform garbage_collections. By doing these via the system task functionality all garbage collect operations in the system will be performed solely in the context of the process being garbage collected. This makes it possible to later implement functionality for disabling garbage collection of a process over context switches. Newly introduced BIFs: * erlang:garbage_collect/2 - The new second argument is an option list. Introduced option: * {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue asynchronous garbage collect requests. * erlang:check_process_code/3 - The new third argument is an option list. Introduced options: * {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue asynchronous check process code requests. * {allow_gc, boolean()} - making it possible to issue requests that aren't allowed to garbage collect (operation will abort if gc should be needed). These options have been introduced as a preparation for parallelization of check_process_code operations when the code_server is about to purge a module.
