2012-03-22Add user tag spreading functionality to VM and use in filePatrik Nyblom
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.

2011-12-01Deprecate erlang:system_flag/2 arguments scheduler_bind_type and cpu_topologyRickard Green
The use of erlang:system_flag(scheduler_bind_type, _) and erlang:system_flag(cpu_topology, _) have been deprecated and scheduled for removal in erts-5.10/OTP-R16. For more information see the documentation of erlang:system_flag/2.
2011-12-01Remove common run-queue in SMP caseRickard Green
The common run-queue implementation is removed since it is unused, untested, undocumented, unsupported, and only complicates the code. A spinlock used by the run-queue management sometimes got heavily contended. This code has now been rewritten, and the spinlock has been removed.

* 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The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system.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.

2011-10-26Use 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.
2011-08-16emulator: Add a fourth element in exception stacktracesBjörn Gustavsson
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.

All uses of the old deprecated atomic API in the runtime system have been replaced with the use of the new atomic API. In a lot of places this change imply a relaxation of memory barriers used.

2011-05-04iolist_size/1: Fix truncation of resultBjörn Gustavsson
iolist_size/1 would silently return a truncated result for iolists whose size exceeded the word size. For example: iolist(lists:duplicate(256, <<0:(1 bsl 24)/unit:8>>)). would return 0 (instead of 4294967296 or 1 bsl 32). Rewrite iolist_size/1 to accumulate the size in a bignum if necessary and result the correct result.

2011-01-29Fix several bugs related to hibernate/3 and HiPEPaul Guyot
This commit fixes four related bugs: - calling hibernate/3 using a dynamic call would fail with badarg as hibernate/3 as a BIF was not implemented. hibernate/3 is generally provided as a Beam instruction, and code is translated to use this instruction when loaded. - calling hibernate/3 from HiPE would fail with badarg because this would call the aforementioned BIF which was not implemented. - calling hibernate/3 with some HiPE-native garbage in the process heap would randomly crash at the next garbage collect. This bug only happened in a complex, yet reproduceable scenarios, where native code calls beam code that calls hibernate/3, and the process has some garbage when being hibernated and the process generates garbage when awaken. - when entering HiPE, the process current_function can be set and be inaccurate. The fix is three folded: - hibernate_3 BIF now actually works instead of throwing a badarg. While hibernate_3 BIF was (usually) not called from BEAM, it is called from HiPE. hibernate behaviour is very close to the scheduler and this is why it is implemented as an instruction in BEAM. The fix consists in doing the actual hibernation (through the now exported erts_hibernate function) and setting the process flag to TRAP as well as the process status to P_WAITING. On BIF epilogue in both BEAM and HiPE, this status is tested on TRAP and if set, the scheduler is invoked. The i_hibernate instruction and translation code is now redundant and could be deleted. - hibernation now also empties the HiPE native stack, with a new function hipe_empty_nstack provided by Mikael Pettersson. - when entering HiPE through hipe_mode_switch, p->current is cleared, as suggested by Mikael Pettersson. p->current normally hold a pointer to the {M,F,A} of the current function if it exists. When hibernating, it is set to {erlang,hibernate,3}, and all stdlib hibernate tests (gen_server_SUITE:hibernate/1, proc_lib_suite:hibernate/1, etc.) actually rely on this information. Clearing p->current fixes the tests and avoids the surprise one might have when querying the process info of a process that hibernated and woke up in a native function. Non-regression tests are provided, a test for the dynamic call as well as a Makefile-handled duplication of the hibernate_SUITE into hibernate_native_SUITE for the HiPE case.

2010-07-20One off-heap list, to eliminate two words per ETS object.Sverker Eriksson
Merging the three off-heap lists (binaries, funs and externals) into one list. This reduces memory consumption by two words (pointers) per ETS object.

This BIF was only used by the now broken SAE support.
2010-05-31Add erlang:nif_error/1,2Björn Gustavsson
A stub function that is supposed to be replaced by a NIF usually calls erlang:error/1 to cause an exception if the NIF library is not loaded. For example: foo() -> erlang:error(nif_not_loaded). The problem is that although erlang:error/1 will normally never be called, Dialyzer will think that any call to the function will fail and thus generate false warnings. Adding a spec for the function will not help because Dialyzer will not believe the spec. Add erlang:nif_error/1,2 that work exactly like erlang:error/1,2. Define the return types for both BIFs to be t_any(). erlang:nif_error is used like this: -spec foo() -> binary(). foo() -> erlang:nif_error(nif_not_loaded). (The -spec is optional but highly recommended, since Dialyzer otherwise has no chance to figure out the types.)

Rewrite trace code and external coding. Also slightly correct the interface to the match-spec engine to make tracing work. That will make the test suites runnable.
