2017-07-17erts: Replace usage of all erts_smp prefixes to just ertsLukas Larsson
2017-07-17erts: Cleanup removal of non-smp emulatorsLukas Larsson
2017-07-17erts: Remove ERTS_SMP and USE_THREAD definesLukas Larsson
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
2017-07-07Add a proper type for lock optionsJohn Högberg
2017-07-06Allow toggling lock counting at runtimeJohn Högberg
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. OTP-13170
2017-05-18Make lock counter info independent of the locks being countedJohn Högberg
This allows us to enable/disable lock counting at will, and greatly improves the performance of erts_debug:lock_counters/1 since we no longer have to worry about the lock counters "dying" while we're enumerating them. OTP-14412

2016-02-24erts: Change erl_exit into erts_exitSverker Eriksson
This is mostly a pure refactoring. Except for the buggy cases when calling erlang:halt() with a positive integer in the range -(INT_MIN+2) to -INT_MIN that got confused with ERTS_ABORT_EXIT, ERTS_DUMP_EXIT and ERTS_INTR_EXIT. Outcome OLD erl_exit(n, ) NEW erts_exit(n, ) ------- ------------------- ------------------------------------------- exit(Status) n = -Status <= 0 n = Status >= 0 crashdump+abort n > 0, ignore n n = ERTS_ERROR_EXIT < 0 The outcome of the old ERTS_ABORT_EXIT, ERTS_INTR_EXIT and ERTS_DUMP_EXIT are the same as before (even though their values have changed).

2015-03-18Fix thread name from driver apiDan Gudmundsson
if opts was null the name was not set
2014-12-19erts: Add support for thread namesLukas Larsson
2014-02-24ose,erts: Specify name for tsd keysLukas Larsson
This simplified debugging on OSE and also limits the number of ppdata keys that are created when beam is restarted.
2014-02-24Added support for ENEA OSELukas Larsson
This port has support for both non-smp and smp. It contains a new way to do io checking in which erts_poll_wait receives the payload of the polled entity. This has implications for all linked-in drivers.
2013-07-24erts: Extend erl_driver interface with lock namesBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Lock and thread names are already a feature in the driver interface. This extension will let developers read these names. Eases debugging.
2011-11-13Use critical sections as mutex implementation on WindowsRickard Green
Windows native critical sections are now used internally in the runtime system as mutex implementation. This since they perform better under extreme contention than our own implementation.

2010-10-12Fix erl_drv_tsd_get() and enif_tsd_get()Rickard Green
A bug in erl_drv_tsd_get() and enif_tsd_get() could cause an emulator crash. These functions are currently not used in OTP. That is, the crash only occur on systems with user implemented NIF libraries or drivers that use one of these functions.
2010-08-10Rewrite ethread libraryRickard Green
Large parts of the ethread library have been rewritten. The ethread library is an Erlang runtime system internal, portable thread library used by the runtime system itself. Most notable improvement is a reader optimized rwlock implementation which dramatically improve the performance of read-lock/read-unlock operations on multi processor systems by avoiding ping-ponging of the rwlock cache lines. The reader optimized rwlock implementation is used by miscellaneous rwlocks in the runtime system that are known to be read-locked frequently, and can be enabled on ETS tables by passing the `{read_concurrency, true}' option upon table creation. See the documentation of `ets:new/2' for more information. The ethread library can now also use the libatomic_ops library for atomic memory accesses. This makes it possible for the Erlang runtime system to utilize optimized atomic operations on more platforms than before. Use the `--with-libatomic_ops=PATH' configure command line argument when specifying where the libatomic_ops installation is located. The libatomic_ops library can be downloaded from: http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/ The changed API of the ethread library has also caused modifications in the Erlang runtime system. Preparations for the to come "delayed deallocation" feature has also been done since it depends on the ethread library. Note: When building for x86, the ethread library will now use instructions that first appeared on the pentium 4 processor. If you want the runtime system to be compatible with older processors (back to 486) you need to pass the `--enable-ethread-pre-pentium4-compatibility' configure command line argument when configuring the system.
