check_process_code: Sweep HiPE stack for literals
|
|
|
|
Because check_process_code neglected checking the HiPE stack for
references to the literal area, such references would survive the purge
and subsequent deletion of a module and its literal area. These dangling
references would then cause incorrect behaviour or even hard crashes of
the VM.
By simply adding a scan of the HiPE stack to check_process_code and
erts_garbage_collect_literals, this problem is fixed.
In order to support full stack walks without deleting the graylimit
trap, a new stack walking interface function,
nstack_walk_init_sdesc_ignore_trap() was introduced.
|
|
and replace with a nice else-if chain.
|
|
The same bug was fixed for OTP 18 in cb62c989e59f0ec8556f9f1d4e9a45b
by provoking yet another GC.
But now in 19 we are ok with heap fragments
so just remove the asserts.

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

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.

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).

Microstate accounting is a way to track which state the
different threads within ERTS are in. The main usage area
is to pin point performance bottlenecks by checking which
states the threads are in and then from there figuring out
why and where to optimize.
Since checking whether microstate accounting is on or off is
relatively expensive if done in a short loop only a few of the
states are enabled by default and more states can be enabled
through configure.
I've done some benchmarking and the overhead with it turned off
is not noticible and with it on it is a fraction of a percent.
If you enable the extra states, depending on the benchmark,
the ovehead when turned off is about 1% and when turned on
somewhere inbetween 5-15%.

The message_queue_data option can have the values
- off_heap
- on_heap
- mixed
|
|
Processes remember heap fragments that are known to be fully
live due to creation in a just called BIF that yields in the
live_hf_end field. This field must not be used if we have not
disabled GC in a BIF. F_DELAY_GC has been introduced in order
to distinguish between to two different scenarios.
- F_DISABLE_GC should *only* be used by BIFs. This when
the BIF needs to yield while preventig a GC.
- F_DELAY_GC should only be used when GC is temporarily
disabled while the process is scheduled. A process must
not be scheduled out while F_DELAY_GC is set.

Bad map hashing will increase the risk.

This is very verbose, you have been warned.
It should work with the copy-spy.py script, which may be a bit outdated.

Add functions size_shared, copy_shared_calculate and copy_shared_perform.
Add the infrastructure for making these communicate with each other.
Add debug information to other places in the VM, to watch interaction
with the sharing-preserving copy.
CAUTION: If you define the SHCOPY_DEBUG macro (after SHCOPY is actually
used in the VM) and make the whole OTP, there will be a lot of debugging
messages during make (it will also be enabled in erlc). You have been
warned...

* The youngest generation of the heap can now consist of multiple
blocks. Heap fragments and message fragments are added to the
youngest generation when needed without triggering a GC. After
a GC the youngest generation is contained in one single block.
* The off_heap_message_queue process flag has been added. When
enabled all message data in the queue is kept off heap. When
a message is selected from the queue, the message fragment (or
heap fragment) containing the actual message is attached to the
youngest generation. Messages stored off heap is not part of GC.
