* vinoski/ds-avoid-lock:
Skip run queue lock check for dirty schedulers
|
|
- The calling process is now suspended while synchronizing
scheduler suspends via erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _)
and erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, _), instead of blocking
the scheduler thread in the BIF call waiting for the operation
to synchronize. Besides releasing the scheduler for other work
(or immediate suspend) it also makes it possible to abort the
operation by killing the process.
- erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _) now only wait for normal
schedulers to complete before it returns. This since it may take
a very long time before all dirty schedulers suspends.
- erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block_normal|unblock_normal)
which only operate on normal schedulers has been introduced. This
since there are use cases where suspend of dirty schedulers are
not of interest (hipe loader).
- erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block) still blocks all
dirty schedulers as well as all normal schedulers except one since
it is hard to redefine what multi scheduling block means.
- The three operations:
- changing amount of schedulers online
- blocking/unblocking normal multi scheduling
- blocking/unblocking full multi scheduling
can now be done in parallel. This is important since otherwise
a full multi scheduling block would potentially delay the other
operations for a very long time.

erts: Make erlang:halt() accept bignums as Status

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).

Do not wait for main lock when looking up process not running
|
|
|
|
The wake_scheduler function asserts that the run queue is not locked,
but this assertion sometimes fails for dirty schedulers (in January
2016 a user in erlang-questions reported a dirty schedulers problem
related to this). After discussing it with Rickard, we decided
modifying the assertion was the most practical way to address the
problem.
|
|
This commit implements erts_internal:system_check(schedulers) with the
intent of a basic responsiveness test check of the schedulers.

Only the actual call to the dirty nif is allowed to execute on
dirty schedulers. The dirty nif is not allowed to execute on
normal schedulers if dirty schedulers are available.
Arrival of exit signals and system tasks, while a process was
scheduled for execution on a dirty scheduler, could mess up the
process internal state.
Preparation for dirty system task has been made, but is currently
unused.

erts: Fix race between receive timeout and exit signal

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%.

ERTS_WRITE_UNLIKELY can be used to place global variables in
a specific section where only data that is very rarely modified
sits. This is used to improve cache locality.

The nature of aux work is such that dirty schedulers should not
attempt to perform it. Modify the code to ensure that dirty schedulers
avoid aux work.
Also fix an incorrect assumption about the size of a Uint in the
ErtsDirtySchedId type.

Instead of forking from the beam process, we create a separate
process in which all forks are done. This has several advantages:
1) performance:
* don't have to close all fd's in the world
* fork only has to copy stuff from a small process
* work is done in a completely seperate process
* a 3x performance increase has been measured,
can be made even greater (10x) if we cache the
environment in child setup
2) stability
* the exec is done in another process than beam, which means that
if the file that we exec to is on an nfs that is not available
right now we will not block a scheduler until the nfs returns.
3) simplicity
* don't have to deal with SIGCHLD in the erts
Unfortunately, this solution also implies some badness.
1) There will always be a seperate process running together with
beam on unix. This could be confusing and undesirable.
2) We have to transfer the entire environment to child_setup
for each command.

* rickard/ohmq-fixup/OTP-13047:
Replace off_heap_message_queue option with message_queue_data option
Always use literal_alloc
Distinguish between GC disabled by BIFs and other disabled GC
Fix process_info(_, off_heap_message_queue)
Off heap message queue test suite
Remove unused variable
Fix memory leaks
|
|
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.

The TMPBUF option is no longer needed due to is_literal test and NONE
was only used for initial debugging. So we remove the entire option.

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