OTP-14202 * rickard/binary-refc: Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMP Conflicts: erts/emulator/beam/beam_bp.c
2017-02-06Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMPRickard Green
NIF resources was not handled in a thread-safe manner in the runtime system without SMP support. As a consequence of this fix, the following driver functions are now thread-safe also in the runtime system without SMP support: - driver_free_binary() - driver_realloc_binary() - driver_binary_get_refc() - driver_binary_inc_refc() - driver_binary_dec_refc()

2016-12-12erts: Make depth of current_stacktrace configurableHåkan Mattsson
The BIF process_info(Pid, current_stacktrace) truncates the stacktrace. The old behavior was to truncate long stacktraces to max 8 items. And this was hard coded. Now it is truncated to the value of system_flag(backtrace_depth) instead. The backtrace_depth defaults to 8, but is configurable.

Add system_info(atom_limit) to provide a way to retrieve the maximum number of atoms allowed. Add tests and documentation for it too. Also split system_info_SUITE:start_node/2 to start_node_ets/2 and start_node_atm/2 to avoid code duplication.
2016-10-12erts: Refactor find_function_from_pc to return MFALukas Larsson
2016-10-12erts: Refactor out func_info into structLukas Larsson
This commit adds two new structs to be used to represent erlang code in erts. ErtsCodeInfo is used to describe the i_func_info header that is part of all Export entries and the prelude of each function. This replaces all the BeamInstr * that were previously used to point to these locations. After this change the code should never use BeamInstr * with offsets to figure out different parts of the func_info header. ErtsCodeMFA is a struct that is used to descripe a MFA in code. It is used within ErtsCodeInfo and also in Process->current. All function that previously took Eterm * or BeamInstr * to identify a MFA now use the ErtsCodeMFA or ErtsCodeInfo where appropriate. The code has been tested to work when adding a new field to the ErtsCodeInfo struct, but some updates are needed in ops.tab to make it work.

2016-08-29Fix purge of codeRickard Green
Ensure that we cannot get any dangling pointers into code that has been purged. This is done by a two phase purge. At first phase all fun entries pointing into the code to purge are marked for purge. All processes trying to call these funs will be suspended and by this we avoid getting new direct references into the code. When all processes has been checked, these processes are resumed. The new purge strategy now also completely ignore the existence of indirect references to the code (funs). If such exist, they will cause bad fun exceptions to the caller, but will not prevent a soft purge or cause a kill of a process having such live references during a hard purge. This since it is impossible to give any guarantees that no processes in the system have such indirect references. Even when the system is completely clean from such references, new ones can appear via distribution and/or disk.

2016-05-10erts: Implement max_heap_size process flagLukas Larsson
The max_heap_size process flag can be used to limit the growth of a process heap by killing it before it becomes too large to handle. It is possible to set the maximum using the `erl +hmax` option, `system_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`, `spawn_opt(Fun, [{max_heap_size, ...}])` and `process_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`. It is possible to configure the behaviour of the process when the maximum heap size is reached. The process may be sent an untrappable exit signal with reason kill and/or send an error_logger message with details on the process state. A new trace event called gc_max_heap_size is also triggered for the garbage_collection trace flag when the heap grows larger than the configured size. If kill and error_logger are disabled, it is still possible to see that the maximum has been reached by doing garbage collection tracing on the process. The heap size is defined as the sum of the heap memory that the process is currently using. This includes all generational heaps, the stack, any messages that are considered to be part of the heap and any extra memory the garbage collector may need during collection. In the current implementation this means that when a process is set using on_heap message queue data mode, the messages that are in the internal message queue are counted towards this value. For off_heap, only matched messages count towards the size of the heap. For mixed, it depends on race conditions within the VM whether a message is part of the heap or not. Below is an example run of the new behaviour: Eshell V8.0 (abort with ^G) 1> f(P),P = spawn_opt(fun() -> receive ok -> ok end end, [{max_heap_size, 512}]). <0.60.0> 2> erlang:trace(P, true, [garbage_collection, procs]). 1 3> [P ! lists:duplicate(M,M) || M <- lists:seq(1,15)],ok. ok 4> =ERROR REPORT==== 26-Apr-2016::16:25:10 === Process: <0.60.0> Context: maximum heap size reached Max heap size: 512 Total heap size: 723 Kill: true Error Logger: true GC Info: [{old_heap_block_size,0}, {heap_block_size,609}, {mbuf_size,145}, {recent_size,0}, {stack_size,9}, {old_heap_size,0}, {heap_size,211}, {bin_vheap_size,0}, {bin_vheap_block_size,46422}, {bin_old_vheap_size,0}, {bin_old_vheap_block_size,46422}] flush().

that uses its own super carrier (erts_exec_mmapper) to guarantee low addressed and executable memory (PROT_EXEC). Currently only used on x86_64 that needs low memory for HiPE/AMD64's small code model. By initializing erts_exec_mapper early we secure its low memory area before erts_literal_mmapper might steal it.
2016-04-15erts: Implement tracer modulesLukas Larsson
Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example). This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API. This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive) the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp out of order. Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments. OTP-10267

2016-03-10Improved scheduler suspend functionalityRickard Green
- The calling process is now suspended while synchronizing scheduler suspends via erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _) and erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, _), instead of blocking the scheduler thread in the BIF call waiting for the operation to synchronize. Besides releasing the scheduler for other work (or immediate suspend) it also makes it possible to abort the operation by killing the process. - erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _) now only wait for normal schedulers to complete before it returns. This since it may take a very long time before all dirty schedulers suspends. - erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block_normal|unblock_normal) which only operate on normal schedulers has been introduced. This since there are use cases where suspend of dirty schedulers are not of interest (hipe loader). - erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block) still blocks all dirty schedulers as well as all normal schedulers except one since it is hard to redefine what multi scheduling block means. - The three operations: - changing amount of schedulers online - blocking/unblocking normal multi scheduling - blocking/unblocking full multi scheduling can now be done in parallel. This is important since otherwise a full multi scheduling block would potentially delay the other operations for a very long time.
