If no message/signal is sent (to same destination)
then monitor signal is flushed when process is scheduled out.

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The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been
replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts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.

Just to simplify and get 4 distinctive states
IDLE, PENDING, CONNECTED and EXITING.
The old possible flag combos were:
0
PENDING
CONNECTED
CONNECTED|EXITING
EXITING
The two EXITING states did not serve any purpose
other then as a slight optimization in monitor_node(_,false,_)
to shortcut EXITING when there can be no monitors.

|
to only transcode if output buffer actually contains
unsupported BIT_BINARY_EXT or EXPORT_EXT.
|
|
to replace DFLAGS_STRICT_ORDER_DELIVERY
and remove that compile time dependency.
|
|
for kernel to ask erts about distribution flags
and keep this info in one place.

putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice
it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before)
keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have
absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a
driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3)
without honoring our lock.
This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which
can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party
libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of
os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.

by suppressing DOP_MONITOR_P, DOP_MONITOR_P_EXIT and DOP_DEMONITOR_P
if not supported by the remote node.
In 17e198d6ee60f7dec9abfed272cf4226aea44535
I changed the behavior of erlang:monitor
to not raise badarg for c-nodes but instead create
a monitor to only supervise the connection.
But I forgot to prevent DOP_MONITOR_P and friends from being
sent to the node that does not expect them.
Note: We test both DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR and DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR_NAME
for the node to support process monitoring. This is because
erl_interface is buggy as it sets DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR without
really supporting it.
ToDo: Should erl_interface stop setting DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR
or should we change the meaning of these flags?
|

We should break out when out of reductions.

When finalizing outgoing distribution messages
we transcode them into using tuple fallbacks if the
receiver does not support bitstrings and export-funs.
This can only happen if the message was first encoded toward
a pending connection when the receiver was unknown.
It's an optimistic approach optmimized for modern beam nodes,
that expect real bitstrings and funs (since <R13).
Only erl_interface/jinterface lack this support.

to avoid tuple fallbacks for export funs and bitstrings.
ToDo: Re-encode if receiver turn out to be erl_interface/jinterface.

This refactor was done using the unifdef tool like this:
for file in $(find erts/ -name *.[ch]); do unifdef -t -f defile -o $file $file; done
where defile contained:
#define ERTS_SMP 1
#define USE_THREADS 1
#define DDLL_SMP 1
#define ERTS_HAVE_SMP_EMU 1
#define SMP 1
#define ERL_BITS_REENTRANT 1
#define ERTS_USE_ASYNC_READY_Q 1
#define FDBLOCK 1
#undef ERTS_POLL_NEED_ASYNC_INTERRUPT_SUPPORT
#define ERTS_POLL_ASYNC_INTERRUPT_SUPPORT 0
#define ERTS_POLL_USE_WAKEUP_PIPE 1
#define ERTS_POLL_USE_UPDATE_REQUESTS_QUEUE 1
#undef ERTS_HAVE_PLAIN_EMU
#undef ERTS_SIGNAL_STATE

The implementation is still hidden behind ERTS_ENABLE_LOCK_COUNT, and
all categories are still enabled by default, but the actual counting can be
toggled at will.
