A lot of erts internal messages used behind APIs to create
non-blocking calls, e.g. port_command, would cause the seq_trace
token to be cleared from the caller when it should not.
This commit fixes that and adds asserts that makes sure
that all messages sent have to correct token set.
Fixes: ERL-602

Fix bug in enif_binary_to_term for immediates
|
|
Symptom: Heap corruption
Expanded test case to provoke this bug
and test some more term types.
|
|
If no message/signal is sent (to same destination)
then monitor signal is flushed when process is scheduled out.
|
|
This may be of interest in crash dumps and allows the upcoming
allocation tagging feature to track allocations on a per-NIF basis.
Note that this is only updated when user code calls a NIF; it's not
altered when the emulator calls NIFs during code upgrades or
tracing.

Communication between Erlang processes has conceptually always been
performed through asynchronous signaling. The runtime system
implementation has however previously preformed most operation
synchronously. In a system with only one true thread of execution, this
is not problematic (often the opposite). In a system with multiple threads
of execution (as current runtime system implementation with SMP support)
it becomes problematic. This since it often involves locking of structures
when updating them which in turn cause resource contention. Utilizing
true asynchronous communication often avoids these resource contention
issues.
The case that triggered this change was contention on the link lock due
to frequent updates of the monitor trees during communication with a
frequently used server. The signal order delivery guarantees of the
language makes it hard to change the implementation of only some signals
to use true asynchronous signaling. Therefore the implementations
of (almost) all signals have been changed.
Currently the following signals have been implemented as true
asynchronous signals:
- Message signals
- Exit signals
- Monitor signals
- Demonitor signals
- Monitor triggered signals (DOWN, CHANGE, etc)
- Link signals
- Unlink signals
- Group leader signals
All of the above already defined as asynchronous signals in the
language. The implementation of messages signals was quite
asynchronous to begin with, but had quite strict delivery constraints
due to the ordering guarantees of signals between a pair of processes.
The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been
replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts
that service all kinds of signals. More details regarding the signal
queue can be found in comments in the erl_proc_sig_queue.h file.
The monitor and link implementations have also been completely replaced
in order to fit the new asynchronous signaling implementation as good
as possible. More details regarding the new monitor and link
implementations can be found in the erl_monitor_link.h file.

This does not avoid allocating a ProcBin since we still need to
release the binary somehow (and using the tmp obj list is slightly
slower since it's an unavoidable off-heap allocation), but it does give
us a hard limit on how long said ProcBin will live, which is a lot
better than before.

This fixes two corner-cases:
1) We will no longer return an invalid term when a binary inspected
on environment A is used in enif_make_binary on environment B
2) A double-free in this sequence of events:
* enif_alloc_binary(size, &bin);
* enif_ioq_enq_binary(ioq, &bin, skip);
* enif_make_binary(env, &bin);
* enif_make_binary(env, &bin);

Attaching to a ProcBin is the fastest way to delay the release of an
already allocated Binary, but alloc_tmp_obj is a lot faster when
starting from scratch since it usually uses temp_alloc.

When a dirty NIF is executed a "schedule in" trace event is
generated, which may in turn result in a generic system task being
created, causing the process to be scheduled out as it can't run
dirty with pending tasks.
This is usually fine since said system task is seldom created, but
ERTS_FORCE_ENIF_SEND_DELAY was de-facto always on for debug builds,
causing the process to bounce between dirty and normal schedulers
forever.
This commit is not a complete fix and it can go off the rails even
on normal builds; if there's a lot of dirty jobs lined up and the
receiver's msgq lock happens to be busy at the wrong time, the
additional trace messages generated through this will hammer the
lock and keep everything bouncing.

This introduces a way to retrieve erlang terms from NIF IO queues
without having to resort to copying.

Break out from 'flags' into new dedicated 'connection_id'
just for simplicity.
Also changed flags to low bits
and that affected enif_binary_to_term.

Do check before we free heap fragments.

The lack of this caused serious data corruption when a binary was
altered after entering the queue. This went unnoticed because it
was never used without erlang:iolist_to_iovec, which always
emasculates binaries.

The BeamOp() macro in erl_vm.h is clumsy to use. All users
cast the return value to BeamInstr.
Define new macros that are easier to use. In the future,
we might want to pack an operand into the same word as
the pointer to the instruction, so we will define two macros.
BeamIsOpCode() is used to rewrite code like this:
if (Instr == (BeamInstr) BeamOp(op_i_func_info_IaaI) {
...
}
to:
if (BeamIsOpCode(Instr, op_i_func_info_IaaI)) {
...
}
BeamOpCodeAddr(op_apply_bif) is used when we need the address
for an instruction.
Also elimiminate the global variables em_* in beam_emu.c.
They are not really needed. Use the BeamOpCodeAddr() macro
instead.

Besides being noisy, they were already defined by a global Unix-
specific header, causing the Windows build to fail if one forgot to
define them.

This refactor was done using the unifdef tool like this:

whereis lookup conflicts with other register updater
AND other thread sends on-heap message while main lock is released.
Also improved enif_whereis from dirty nifs by passing c_p as NULL.

If we don't have the main lock, multiple threads may come in and
do the flush at the same time which will lead to all kinds of
strang problems.
