It is allowed to set the backtrace depth to 0, but when
an exception is catched the stacktrace will still contain
one element:
1> erlang:system_flag(backtrace_depth, 0).
8
2> catch error(badarg).
{'EXIT',{badarg,[{shell,apply_fun,3,
[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,908}]}]}}
However, when an exception is raised using `erlang:raise/3`, there
will be no elements in the stacktrace:
3> catch erlang:raise(error, badarg, [{fake,name,[arg],[]}]).
{'EXIT',{badarg,[]}}
Since the `error_handler` module uses `erlang:raise/3` to
raise an exception when an undefined function is called,
there will not be any stacktrace when calling an undefined
function:
4> catch undef_module:undef_name(some_argument).
{'EXIT',{undef,[]}}
Fix this inconsistency by changing `erlang:raise/3` so that
it always includes one element in the stacktrace:
3> catch erlang:raise(error, badarg, [{fake,name,[arg],[]}]).
{'EXIT',{badarg,[{fake,name,[arg],[]}]}}
4> catch undef_module:undef_name(some_argument).
{'EXIT',{undef,[{undef_module,undef_name,[some_argument],[]}]}}

Communication between Erlang processes has conceptually always been
performed through asynchronous signaling. The runtime system
implementation has however previously preformed most operation
synchronously. In a system with only one true thread of execution, this
is not problematic (often the opposite). In a system with multiple threads
of execution (as current runtime system implementation with SMP support)
it becomes problematic. This since it often involves locking of structures
when updating them which in turn cause resource contention. Utilizing
true asynchronous communication often avoids these resource contention
issues.
The case that triggered this change was contention on the link lock due
to frequent updates of the monitor trees during communication with a
frequently used server. The signal order delivery guarantees of the
language makes it hard to change the implementation of only some signals
to use true asynchronous signaling. Therefore the implementations
of (almost) all signals have been changed.
Currently the following signals have been implemented as true
asynchronous signals:
- Message signals
- Exit signals
- Monitor signals
- Demonitor signals
- Monitor triggered signals (DOWN, CHANGE, etc)
- Link signals
- Unlink signals
- Group leader signals
All of the above already defined as asynchronous signals in the
language. The implementation of messages signals was quite
asynchronous to begin with, but had quite strict delivery constraints
due to the ordering guarantees of signals between a pair of processes.
The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been
replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts
that service all kinds of signals. More details regarding the signal
queue can be found in comments in the erl_proc_sig_queue.h file.
The monitor and link implementations have also been completely replaced
in order to fit the new asynchronous signaling implementation as good
as possible. More details regarding the new monitor and link
implementations can be found in the erl_monitor_link.h file.

Don't need to be pointer-pointer

The least bad behavior I think:
* We cannot return 'noconnect' as caller might already have enqueued
monitor/link that never triggers.
* We cannot block waiting for connection as that can ruin latency
when 'noconnect' is used to avoid blocking auto-connect
(see gen_server and gen_statem).
But there might be users getting more cases of bad latency
waiting for a pendig connection, instead of a fast 'noconnect'.

The BeamOp() macro in erl_vm.h is clumsy to use. All users
cast the return value to BeamInstr.
Define new macros that are easier to use. In the future,
we might want to pack an operand into the same word as
the pointer to the instruction, so we will define two macros.
BeamIsOpCode() is used to rewrite code like this:
if (Instr == (BeamInstr) BeamOp(op_i_func_info_IaaI) {
...
}
to:
if (BeamIsOpCode(Instr, op_i_func_info_IaaI)) {
...
}
BeamOpCodeAddr(op_apply_bif) is used when we need the address
for an instruction.
Also elimiminate the global variables em_* in beam_emu.c.
They are not really needed. Use the BeamOpCodeAddr() macro
instead.

We don't need to pass x(0), x(1), and x(2) because they
can already be found in the register array.

for file in $(find erts/ -name *.[ch]); do unifdef -t -f defile -o $file $file; done
