2012-11-30erts: Change default of erl_crash.dumpBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
* Create an erl_crash.dump if no heart exists and no ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS is set (behaviour changed) * Don't create an erl_crash.dump if heart do exists and no ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS is set (behaviour not changed) This changes the behaviour back to the R15B02 default considering if a beam was running with no heart. The motivation is that we want a fast heart to fast restart erlang if it crashes but to be able to get non-truncated erl_crash.dumps via setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS if we so desire.

2012-10-16erts: Change ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS behaviourBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Not setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS will now terminate beam immediately on a crash without writing a crash dump file. Setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS to 0 will also terminate beam immediately on a crash without writing a crash dump file, i.e. same as not setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS environment variable. Setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS to a negative value will let the beam wait indefinitely on the crash dump file being written. Setting ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS to a positive value will let the beam wait that many seconds on the crash dump file being written. A positive value will set both an alarm in beam AND a heart timeout for restart if heart is running. This is due to the change of 'heart' behavior when 'heart' is listening for a crash.

2012-08-14Make get/putenv and erlexec understand UnicodePatrik Nyblom
Putenv and getenv needs to convert to the proper environment strings in Unicode depending on platform and user settings for filename encoding. Also erlexec needs to pass environment strings in an appropriate way for kernel to pick up. All environment strings on the command line, as well as home directory, is now passed in UTF8 on windows and in whatever encoding you have on Unix, kernel tries to convert all parameters and environments from UTF8 before making strings.

* 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The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system.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.
2011-06-14Use new atomic API in runtime systemRickard Green
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.

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.

New NIF features: Send messages from a NIF, or from thread created by NIF, to any local process (enif_send) Store terms between NIF calls (enif_alloc_env, enif_make_copy) Create binary terms with user defined memory management (enif_make_resource_binary)

The value for "OldHeap unused" in the output of erlang:system_info(procs) and in crash dumps, was incorrectly calculated as the size of the entire old heap.

2010-03-10Add the BeamInstr data type for loaded BEAM codePatrik Nyblom
For cleanliness, use BeamInstr instead of the UWord data type to any machine-sized words that are used for BEAM instructions. Only use UWord for untyped words in general.
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.
2009-12-09OTP-8304 Incompatible changes in the experimental NIF feature. Changed theSverker Eriksson
NIF function prototypes in order to allow more than 3 function arguments. Also an incompatible change in the return value of erlang:load_nif/2. Added support for references, floats and term comparison in NIFs. Read more in the documentation of erl_nif and erlang:load_nif/2.
