2011-11-07erts: Remove cp on exiting and trapping processesBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
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.
2011-10-26Change 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.

2011-01-29Fix 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.
2010-09-30Fix a bug in the ERTS_BIF_PREP_TRAPx() macrosBjörn Gustavsson
It seems to work (at least on a little-endian architecture) by sheer luck.

* pan/otp_8332_halfword: Teach testcase in driver_suite the new prototype for driver_async wx: Correct usage of driver callbacks from wx thread Adopt the new (R13B04) Nif functionality to the halfword codebase Support monitoring and demonitoring from driver threads Fix further test-suite problems Correct the VM to work for more test suites Teach {wordsize,internal|external} to system_info/1 Make tracing and distribution work Turn on instruction packing in the loader and virtual machine Add the BeamInstr data type for loaded BEAM code Fix the BEAM dissambler for the half-word emulator Store pointers to heap data in 32-bit words Add a custom mmap wrapper to force heaps into the lower address range Fit all heap data into the 32-bit address range
2010-03-10Store pointers to heap data in 32-bit wordsPatrik Nyblom
Store Erlang terms in 32-bit entities on the heap, expanding the pointers to 64-bit when needed. This works because all terms are stored on addresses in the 32-bit address range (the 32 most significant bits of pointers to term data are always 0). Introduce a new datatype called UWord (along with its companion SWord), which is an integer having the exact same size as the machine word (a void *), but might be larger than Eterm/Uint. Store code as machine words, as the instructions are pointers to executable code which might reside outside the 32-bit address range. Continuation pointers are stored on the 32-bit stack and hence must point to addresses in the low range, which means that loaded beam code much be placed in the low 32-bit address range (but, as said earlier, the instructions themselves are full words). No Erlang term data can be stored on C stacks (enforced by an earlier commit). This version gives a prompt, but test cases still fail (and dump core). The loader (and emulator loop) has instruction packing disabled. The main issues has been in rewriting loader and actual virtual machine. Subsystems (like distribution) does not work yet.
