to replace macro ERTS_INTERNAL_BINARY_FIELDS
as header in Binary and friends.

Only term_to_binary needed some extra attention
as it used to initialize refc as 0 instead of 1.

In many cases sub-binaries costs more memory than converting them to heap-binaries.
Sub-binaries also has a hidden cost of pinning larger binaries in memory.
By converting binaries this cost is reduced.
Byte aligned sub-binaries upto 24 bytes (64-bit) or 12 bytes (32-bit) are converted.

A magic destructor can return 0 and thereby take control
and prolong the lifetime of a magic binary.

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.

Caused bus error on 32-bit sparc from unaligned 64-bit word in
binary_to_term trap context.
Also add _UNALIGNED_ magic macros to avoid double alignment padding
in NIF resources.

except the reference counter 'refc', as different callers
have different strategies regarding the lifetime of the binary.

<<131, 77, Len:32, Bits:8, Data/binary>>
badarg if Bits > 8
Used to return internally inconsistent bitstring
badarg if Len==0 and Bits > 0
Used to return invalid *huge* binary (size = (Uint)-1)
badarg if Bits==0 and Len > 0
Used to return valid binary as if Bits was 8

Introduce unconditional ERTS_ASSERT
and use that for both ASSERT and ASSERT_EXPR.

In halfword emulator, make ETS use a variant of the internal term
format that uses relative offsets instead of absolute pointers. This
will allow storage in high memory (>4G). Preprocessor macros (like
list_val_rel(TERM,BASE)) are used to make normal (fullword) emulator
almost completely unchanged while still reusing most of the code.

Add the gc_bif's to the VM.
Add infrastructure for gc_bif's (guard bifs that can gc) with two and.
three arguments in VM (loader and VM).
Add compiler support for gc_bif with three arguments.
Add compiler (and interpreter) support for new guard BIFs.
Add testcases for new guard BIFs in compiler and emulator.
|
|
Add testcases for binary:list_to_bin/1 and binary:copy/1,2.
Add reference implementation of list_to_bin/1.
|
|
Add allcoator parameter to erts_get_aligned_binary_bytes_extra.
Add testcases for the functions above.
Add reference implementation for the functions above.

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.
