2010-06-03OTP-8555 Send message from NIFSverker Eriksson
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)

2010-03-29Fix erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) to not return faulty header stringsSverker Eriksson
Unrecognized Http header names was sometimes returned as corrupt sub-binaries pointing to a stack allocated buffer. This only happened on 32-bit VM if the header name was between 16 and 20 characters long. It could in some cases lead to segmentation fault. The solution was to avoid creating sub-binary if the returned string was not part of the original binary.

* 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
2010-03-10Fit all heap data into the 32-bit address rangePatrik Nyblom
This is the first step in the implementation of the half-word emulator, a 64-bit emulator where all pointers to heap data will be stored in 32-bit words. Code specific for this emulator variant is conditionally compiled when the HALFWORD_HEAP define has a non-zero value. First force all pointers to heap data to fall into a single 32-bit range, but still store them in 64-bit words. Temporary term data stored on C stack is moved into scheduler specific storage (allocated as heaps) and macros are added to make this happen only in emulators where this is needed. For a vanilla VM the temporary terms are still stored on the C stack.
