2017-10-01Refactor macros for accessing Beam instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
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.

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
2017-07-06Allow 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

* sverker/make-export-fun-race/OTP-14144: erts: Fix race bug between export fun creation and code loading
2017-01-12erts: Fix race bug between export fun creation and code loadingSverker Eriksson
Symptom: SEGV crash on ARM in delete_code() -> export_list(). Could probably happen on other machines as well. Problem: Staging export table was iterated in an unsafe way while an entry was added for a new export fun. Solution: Correct write order and some memory barriers.

Instead of passing around a file descriptor use a function pointer to facilitate more advanced backend write logic such as size limitation or compression.

2016-10-12erts: Refactor out func_info into structLukas Larsson
This commit adds two new structs to be used to represent erlang code in erts. ErtsCodeInfo is used to describe the i_func_info header that is part of all Export entries and the prelude of each function. This replaces all the BeamInstr * that were previously used to point to these locations. After this change the code should never use BeamInstr * with offsets to figure out different parts of the func_info header. ErtsCodeMFA is a struct that is used to descripe a MFA in code. It is used within ErtsCodeInfo and also in Process->current. All function that previously took Eterm * or BeamInstr * to identify a MFA now use the ErtsCodeMFA or ErtsCodeInfo where appropriate. The code has been tested to work when adding a new field to the ErtsCodeInfo struct, but some updates are needed in ops.tab to make it work.
2016-10-10erts: Improve hipe load/upgrade/purge machinerySverker Eriksson
A step toward better integration of hipe load and purge Highlights: * code_server no longer needs to call hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1 Instead new internal function hipe_redirect_to_module() is called by loading BIFs to patch native call sites if needed. * hipe_purge_module() is called by erts_internal:purge_module/2 to purge any native code. * struct hipe_mfa_info redesigned and only used for exported functions that are called from or implemented by native code. A list of native call sites (struct hipe_ref) are kept for each hipe_mfa_info. * struct hipe_sdesc used by hipe_find_mfa_from_ra() to build native stack traces.

2016-05-26erts: Improve some bad hash functionsSverker Eriksson
Multiplying two atoms will always yield the same low 6 bits. The most important tabke 'export' was saved by the prime number table size which seemed to yield a decent uniform distribution anyway.

2012-06-25Don't go to single-scheduler mode when managing breakpointsBjörn Gustavsson
Calls to erlang:set_trace_pattern/3 will no longer block all other schedulers. We will still go to single-scheduler mode when new code is loaded for a module that is traced, or when loading code when there is a default trace pattern set. That is not impossible to fix, but that requires much closer cooperation between tracing BIFs and the loader BIFs.

2011-11-13Replace system block with thread progress blockRickard Green
The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system. The old system block functionality had contention issues and complexity issues. The new functionality piggy-backs on thread progress tracking functionality needed by newly introduced lock-free synchronization in the runtime system. When the functionality for blocking the system isn't used there is more or less no overhead at all. This since the functionality for tracking thread progress is there and needed anyway.
2010-09-08Re-enable spin wait on ethreads rwlocksRickard Green
Spin wait on most ethread rwlocks used by the runtime system was unintentionally disabled during development. Spin wait has now been enabled again. This bug appeared in commit 59ee2a593090e7d53c97ceba63cbd300d1b9657e, i.e., it has not been seen in any released versions.
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.

2010-03-10Add the BeamInstr data type for loaded BEAM codePatrik Nyblom
For cleanliness, use BeamInstr instead of the UWord data type to any machine-sized words that are used for BEAM instructions. Only use UWord for untyped words in general.
2010-03-10Store pointers to heap data in 32-bit wordsPatrik Nyblom
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.
