2012-02-21erts: Fix bignum-bug in ETS with compressed optionSverker Eriksson
A large 64-bit immediate number will be stored as SMALL_BIG_EXT by ETS compressed format. When uncompressing, the SMALL_BIG_EXT was first decoded as as bignum (by bytes_to_big) and then turned into a small (by big_norm). This works for normal "binary_to_term" as decoded_size() over-estimates the needed heap size. But for ETS no over-estimation is done as the real term size is known and stored in DbTerm. Fixed by preventing bytes_to_big() from writing bignum digit when the number is seen to fit in an immediate.
2011-12-02Iron out bugs in Win64 found in daily buildsPatrik Nyblom
Almost all uses of the 'long' datatype is removed from VM and tests Emulator test now runs w/o drivers crashing Nasty abs bug fixed in VM as well as type errors in allocator debug functions Still one allocator test that fails, domain knowledge is needed to fix that. Fix type inconsistency in beam_load causing crashes
2011-12-02Get cerl and distribution working in Win64Patrik Nyblom
Can still not setup -a, but cerl works.

2011-10-11Update integer and floating point number comparisonsLukas Larsson
For floating point values which are greater than 9007199254740990.0 or smaller than -9007199254740990.0, the floating point numbers are now converted to integers during comparison with an integer. This makes number comparisons transitive for large floating point numbers.

2011-02-03HALFWORD ETS relative termsSverker Eriksson
In halfword emulator, make ETS use a variant of the internal term format that uses relative offsets instead of absolute pointers. This will allow storage in high memory (>4G). Preprocessor macros (like list_val_rel(TERM,BASE)) are used to make normal (fullword) emulator almost completely unchanged while still reusing most of the code.

2010-03-22Merge branch 'pan/otp_8332_halfword' into devErlang/OTP
* 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
2010-03-10Correct the VM to work for more test suitesPatrik Nyblom
The following test suites now work: send_term_SUITE trace_nif_SUITE binary_SUITE match_spec_SUITE node_container_SUITE beam_literals_SUITE Also add a testcases for system_info({wordsize,internal|external}).

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.
