into union with actual usage types.
2017-02-06Implement magic referencesRickard Green
Magic references are *intentionally* indistinguishable from ordinary references for the Erlang software. Magic references do not change the language, and are intended as a pure runtime internal optimization. An ordinary reference is typically used as a key in some table. A magic reference has a direct pointer to a reference counted magic binary. This makes it possible to implement various things without having to do lookups in a table, but instead access the data directly. Besides very fast lookups this can also improve scalability by removing a potentially contended table. A couple of examples of planned future usage of magic references are ETS table identifiers, and BIF timer identifiers. Besides future optimizations using magic references it should also be possible to replace the exposed magic binary cludge with magic references. That is, magic binaries that are exposed as empty binaries to the Erlang software.

2016-10-12erts: Refactor rename Export.code[] to Export.beam[]Sverker Eriksson
to avoid scary merge errors.
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.
2016-10-04erts: Do tracer liveness check on current tracerLukas Larsson
This fixes a fault introduced in 19.0 where an invalid tracer would block setting of a new tracer on a process.
2016-05-11erts: Only allow remove from trace_status callbackLukas Larsson
Make it so that it is only possible to remove a tracer via returning remove from an erl_tracer. This limition is put in place in order to avoid a lot of lock checking and taking in various places, especially in regards to trace events happening on dirty schedulers.

and non-call-trace. This is the easy way out to avoid difficult locking scenarios when accessing tracing flags on another process.

2016-05-04erts: Beautify some code with container_of macroSverker Eriksson
2016-04-15erts: Make trace_delivered go via sys msg dispatcher againLukas Larsson
This is needed as otherwise messages from system_profile will not be guaranteed to arrive before trace delivered.
2016-04-15erts: Extend process and port tracingLukas Larsson
This commit completes the tracing for processes so that all messages sent by a process (via nifs or otherwise) will be traced. The commit also adds tracing of all types of events from ports. When enabling tracing using erlang:trace, the 'all' flag now also enables tracing on all ports. OTP-13496
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

2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality over multiple functions in order to improve on this. The new API consists of a number of new BIFs: - erlang:convert_time_unit/3 - erlang:monotonic_time/0 - erlang:monotonic_time/1 - erlang:system_time/0 - erlang:system_time/1 - erlang:time_offset/0 - erlang:time_offset/1 - erlang:timestamp/0 - erlang:unique_integer/0 - erlang:unique_integer/1 - os:system_time/0 - os:system_time/1 and a number of extensions of existing BIFs: - erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service) - erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize) - erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source) - erlang:system_info(time_offset) - erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode) - erlang:system_info(time_correction) - erlang:system_info(start_time) See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

2013-01-28erts: Fix ASSERT crash in erts_try_seize_code_write_permissionSverker Eriksson
ASSERT(code_writing_process != c_p); The assert was actually harmless and could be removed as one solution. But I think it's better to keep it as a way to catch bugs that would otherwise lead to horrible deadlocks if a thread "forgets" to call erts_release_code_write_permission(). As a result erts_release_code_write_permission() must be called BEFORE resuming the suspended process.

Attempting to turn off local call trace when there was global call trace enabled would incorrectly turn off the global call trace. This bug was introduced in bf5bf8b93dccca86c4775b21ee0db49eb6a3b133.

2012-06-25Don't go to single-scheduler mode when managing breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
Calls to erlang:set_trace_pattern/3 will no longer block all other schedulers. We will still go to single-scheduler mode when new code is loaded for a module that is traced, or when loading code when there is a default trace pattern set. That is not impossible to fix, but that requires much closer cooperation between tracing BIFs and the loader BIFs.
2012-06-25Refactor the code for managing breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
To allow us to manage breakpoints without going to single-scheduler mode, we will need to update the breakpoints in several stages with memory barriers in between each stage. Prepare for that by splitting up the breakpoint setting and clearing functions into several smaller functions.
2012-06-25Change the data structures for breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
Change the data structures for breakpoints to make it possible (in a future commit) to manage breakpoints without taking down the system to single-scheduling mode. The current "breakpoint wheel" data structure (a circular, double-linked list of breakpoints) was invented before the SMP emulator. To support it in the SMP emulator, there is essentially one breakpoint wheel per scheduler. As more breakpoint types have been added, the implementation has become messy and hard to understand and maintain. Therefore, the time for a rewrite has come. Use one struct to hold all breakpoint data for a breakpoint in a function. Use a flag field to indicate what different type of break actions that are enabled.
