2016-11-22Merge branch 'maint'Sverker Eriksson
2016-11-17erts: Refactor crash dumping with cbprintfSverker Eriksson
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 rename Export.code[] to Export.beam[]Sverker Eriksson
to avoid scary merge errors.
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.

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.
2012-02-21erts: Refactor export staging lockSverker Eriksson
Renamed it export_staging_lock and made change it to ordinary mutex.
2012-02-21erts: Cleanup non-blocking loadSverker Eriksson
2012-02-21erts: Refactor more renaming as "staging"Sverker Eriksson
2012-02-21erts: Fix memory reports from export tableSverker Eriksson
Report sum from all code index.
2012-02-21erts: Rename "loader" code_ix as "staging" code_ixSverker Eriksson
Staging is a better and more general name as does not necessary need to involve code loading (can be deletion, tracing, etc).
2012-02-21erts: Remove secondary_export_tableSverker Eriksson
2012-02-21erts: Call erts_export_consolidate automaticallySverker Eriksson
Renamed merge_secondary_table and called by export_start_load
2012-02-21erts: Use several addresses in each ExportSverker Eriksson
2012-02-21erts: Multiple export tab's using code_ixSverker Eriksson
Still blocking code loading
2012-02-21erts: First refactor step of export tableSverker Eriksson
2010-06-03Fix BeamInstr code array in export.hBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
2010-03-22Merge branch 'pan/otp_8332_halfword' into devErlang/OTP
* pan/otp_8332_halfword: Teach testcase in driver_suite the new prototype for driver_async wx: Correct usage of driver callbacks from wx thread Adopt the new (R13B04) Nif functionality to the halfword codebase Support monitoring and demonitoring from driver threads Fix further test-suite problems Correct the VM to work for more test suites Teach {wordsize,internal|external} to system_info/1 Make tracing and distribution work Turn on instruction packing in the loader and virtual machine Add the BeamInstr data type for loaded BEAM code Fix the BEAM dissambler for the half-word emulator Store pointers to heap data in 32-bit words Add a custom mmap wrapper to force heaps into the lower address range Fit all heap data into the 32-bit address range
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.
