2018-03-02erts: Refactor DistEntry.status flags into a stateSverker Eriksson
Just to simplify and get 4 distinctive states IDLE, PENDING, CONNECTED and EXITING. The old possible flag combos were: 0 PENDING CONNECTED CONNECTED|EXITING EXITING The two EXITING states did not serve any purpose other then as a slight optimization in monitor_node(_,false,_) to shortcut EXITING when there can be no monitors.
2018-03-02erts: Optimize dist transcoding toward erl_/jinterfaceSverker Eriksson
to only transcode if output buffer actually contains unsupported BIT_BINARY_EXT or EXPORT_EXT.

2017-11-23erts: Fix erlang:monitor toward c-nodesSverker Eriksson
by suppressing DOP_MONITOR_P, DOP_MONITOR_P_EXIT and DOP_DEMONITOR_P if not supported by the remote node. In 17e198d6ee60f7dec9abfed272cf4226aea44535 I changed the behavior of erlang:monitor to not raise badarg for c-nodes but instead create a monitor to only supervise the connection. But I forgot to prevent DOP_MONITOR_P and friends from being sent to the node that does not expect them. Note: We test both DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR and DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR_NAME for the node to support process monitoring. This is because erl_interface is buggy as it sets DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR without really supporting it. ToDo: Should erl_interface stop setting DFLAG_DIST_MONITOR or should we change the meaning of these flags?
2017-11-15erts: Transcode tuple fallbacksSverker Eriksson
When finalizing outgoing distribution messages we transcode them into using tuple fallbacks if the receiver does not support bitstrings and export-funs. This can only happen if the message was first encoded toward a pending connection when the receiver was unknown. It's an optimistic approach optmimized for modern beam nodes, that expect real bitstrings and funs (since <R13). Only erl_interface/jinterface lack this support.
2017-11-15erts: Ensure enc_term_int() always do progressSverker Eriksson
even when reds <= 1 Removed micro optimization for first fun variable to make things simpler.
2017-11-15Add optimistic DFLAG_DIST_HOPEFULLY for pending connectionsSverker Eriksson
to avoid tuple fallbacks for export funs and bitstrings. ToDo: Re-encode if receiver turn out to be erl_interface/jinterface.
2017-11-15erts: Fix auto-connect toward erl_interface/jinterfaceSverker Eriksson
2017-11-15erts: Introduce asynchronous auto-connectSverker Eriksson
2017-11-15erts: Refactor connection_id in ErtsDistExternalSverker Eriksson
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.
2017-11-15erts: Make DFLAGS_NEW_FUN_TAGS mandatorySverker Eriksson
and remove ugly encoding fallback as {fun, ...} DFLAGS_NEW_FUN_TAGS has been supported by vm/erl_interface/jinterface since R13 or even older. Renamed test case obsolete_funs to term2bin_tuple_fallbacks and removed test for {fun,...} fallback and added missing test for bitstring fallback {Binary, Bits}.
2017-11-15erts: Remove obsolete code for latin1 in atom cacheSverker Eriksson
Distribution flag DFLAG_UTF8_ATOMS is supported since R16 and mandatory since 20.0.

2017-10-17erts: Add 'used' option to binary_to_term/2Sverker Eriksson
2017-10-16erts: Refactor binary_to_term/1/2Sverker Eriksson
Reduce number of arguments to binary_to_term_int and use the context struct instead.
2017-09-28Eliminate MY_IS_SSMALL()Björn Gustavsson
For a long time, there has been the two macros IS_SSMALL() and MY_IS_SSMALL() that do exactly the same thing. There should only be one, and it should be called IS_SSMALL(). However, we must decide which implementation to use. When MY_IS_SSMALL() was introduced a long time ago, it was the most efficient. In a modern C compiler, there might not be any difference. To find out, I used the following small C program to examine the code generation: #include <stdio.h> typedef unsigned int Uint32; typedef unsigned long Uint64; typedef long Sint; #define SWORD_CONSTANT(Const) Const##L #define SMALL_BITS (64-4) #define MAX_SMALL ((SWORD_CONSTANT(1) << (SMALL_BITS-1))-1) #define MIN_SMALL (-(SWORD_CONSTANT(1) << (SMALL_BITS-1))) #define MY_IS_SSMALL32(x) (((Uint32) ((((x)) >> (SMALL_BITS-1)) + 1)) < 2) #define MY_IS_SSMALL64(x) (((Uint64) ((((x)) >> (SMALL_BITS-1)) + 1)) < 2) #define MY_IS_SSMALL(x) (sizeof(x) == sizeof(Uint32) ? MY_IS_SSMALL32(x) : MY_IS_SSMALL64(x)) #define IS_SSMALL(x) (((x) >= MIN_SMALL) && ((x) <= MAX_SMALL)) void original(Sint n) { if (IS_SSMALL(n)) { printf("yes\n"); } } void enhanced(Sint n) { if (MY_IS_SSMALL(n)) { printf("yes\n"); } } gcc 7.2 produced the following code for the original() function: .LC0: .string "yes" original(long): movabs rax, 576460752303423488 add rdi, rax movabs rax, 1152921504606846975 cmp rdi, rax jbe .L4 rep ret .L4: mov edi, OFFSET FLAT:.LC0 jmp puts clang 5.0.0 produced the following code which is slightly better: original(long): movabs rax, 576460752303423488 add rax, rdi shr rax, 60 jne .LBB0_1 mov edi, .Lstr jmp puts # TAILCALL .LBB0_1: ret .Lstr: .asciz "yes" However, in the context of beam_emu.c, clang could produce similar to what gcc produced. gcc 7.2 produced the following code when MY_IS_SSMALL() was used: .LC0: .string "yes" enhanced(long): sar rdi, 59 add rdi, 1 cmp rdi, 1 jbe .L4 rep ret .L4: mov edi, OFFSET FLAT:.LC0 jmp puts clang produced similar code. This code seems to be the cheapest. There are four instructions, and there is no loading of huge integer constants.

2017-04-11erts: Init refc=1 in erts_bin_nrml_allocSverker Eriksson
Only term_to_binary needed some extra attention as it used to initialize refc as 0 instead of 1.
2017-03-08erts: Do not generate atoms on old latin1 external formatSverker Eriksson
term_to_binary will always generate utf8 atoms ATOM_UTF8_EXT and SMALL_ATOM_UTF8_EXT. Old latin1 atoms, ATOM_EXT and SMALL_ATOM_EXT, are still decoded.

when a recursive call to dec_term() has already done erts_factory_undo and set factory->hp to NULL.
2017-02-14erts: Add deallocation veto for magic destructorsSverker Eriksson
A magic destructor can return 0 and thereby take control and prolong the lifetime of a magic binary.

2017-02-06Use magic refs binary_to_term/term_to_binary trap contextRickard Green
2017-02-06Implement magic referencesRickard Green
Magic references are *intentionally* indistinguishable from ordinary references for the Erlang software. Magic references do not change the language, and are intended as a pure runtime internal optimization. An ordinary reference is typically used as a key in some table. A magic reference has a direct pointer to a reference counted magic binary. This makes it possible to implement various things without having to do lookups in a table, but instead access the data directly. Besides very fast lookups this can also improve scalability by removing a potentially contended table. A couple of examples of planned future usage of magic references are ETS table identifiers, and BIF timer identifiers. Besides future optimizations using magic references it should also be possible to replace the exposed magic binary cludge with magic references. That is, magic binaries that are exposed as empty binaries to the Erlang software.

2017-02-06Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMPRickard Green
NIF resources was not handled in a thread-safe manner in the runtime system without SMP support. As a consequence of this fix, the following driver functions are now thread-safe also in the runtime system without SMP support: - driver_free_binary() - driver_realloc_binary() - driver_binary_get_refc() - driver_binary_inc_refc() - driver_binary_dec_refc()

2016-10-14hipe,erts: Remove cached fun 'native_address'Sverker Eriksson
Did not work with purge and made worse by new purge strategy. Did yield terrible performance when fun thing is created *before* fun code is loaded. Like when receiving not yet loaded fun from other node. The cached 'native_address' in ErlFunThing will not be updated leading to mode switch and error_handler being called for every call to the fun from native code.
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.
