2015-03-20Merge branch 'sverk/dec_term-bin-overhead/OTP-12554'Sverker Eriksson
* sverk/dec_term-bin-overhead/OTP-12554: erts: Add missing binary offheap overhead in binary_to_term

2015-03-19erts: Fix map bug in dec_term for 32-bit debug VMSverker Eriksson
Adding ERTS_SWORD_MAX to a pointer does not work as a way to disable a bound check. Remove the hp_end from ErtsHeapFactory as it isn't really used anyway.
2015-03-12erts: Refactor maps naming conventionSverker Eriksson
flatmap: Small map hashmap: Large map map: flatmap or hashmap
2015-03-12erts: Tweak over estimation of hashmap size for binary_to_termSverker Eriksson
Strategy: Calculate an over estimation of heap size that will give such a low probability for overflow, that "it will not happen". Scary assumption 1: Uniformly distributed hash values. Scary assumption 2: Tree size is normally distributed (right?)
2015-03-12erts: Reject duplicate keys for hamt in binary_to_termSverker Eriksson
2015-03-12First stab at binary_to_term for hamtSverker Eriksson
with over estimation of heap size.

2015-03-12erts: Add missing binary offheap overhead in binary_to_termSverker Eriksson
Binary offheap overhead is used to trigger GC when a process is referring "too much" binary offheap data. Offheap binaries created from external format (binary_to_term, distributed messages or compacted ets tables) were not accounted for. Example: A process receiving a lot of binary data in distributed messages, while not building much terms on its heap, could cause an extensive memory consumption for garbage binaries.

2015-02-04don't create oversize bignums in binary matchingMikael Pettersson
Bignums are artifically restricted in size. Arithmetic and logical operations check the sizes of resulting bignums, and turn oversize results into system_limit exceptions. However, this check is not performed when bignums are constructed by binary matching. The consequence is that such matchings can construct oversize bignums that satisfy is_integer/1 yet don't work. Performing arithmetic such as Term - 0 fails with a system_limit exception. Worse, performing a logical operation such as Term band Term results in []. The latter occurs because the size checking (e.g. in erts_band()) is a simple ASSERT(is_not_nil(...)) on the result of the bignum operation, which internally is [] (NIL) in the case of oversize results. However, ASSERT is a no-op in release builds, so the error goes unnoticed and [] is returned as the result of the band/2. This patch addresses this by preventing oversize bignums from entering the VM via binary matching: - the internal bytes_to_big() procedure is augmented to return NIL for oversize results, just like big_norm() - callers of bytes_to_big() are augmented to check for NIL returns and signal errors in those cases - erts_bs_get_integer_2() can only fail with badmatch, so that is the Erlang-level result of oversize bignums from binary matches - big_SUITE.erl is extended with a test case that fails without this fix (no error signalled) and passes with it (badmatch occurs) Credit goes to Nico Kruber for the initial bug report.

2014-09-04erts: Refactor binary allocation interface to also initialize BinarySverker Eriksson
except the reference counter 'refc', as different callers have different strategies regarding the lifetime of the binary.

Applies also to distributed send.

Use same mechanism as term_to_binary to yield while encoding large messages for distributed send.
2014-06-05Replace erlang:binary_to_term() Erlang wrappersRickard Green
Replace the 'erlang:binary_to_term/1' and 'erlang:binary_to_term/2' Erlang wrappers taking care of failure after yield with management of this in the hidden yield BIF.

2014-03-14erts: Change external format for mapsSverker Eriksson
to be: 116,Arity, K1,V1,K2,V2,...,Kn,Vn instead of: 116,Arity, K1,K2,...,Kn, V1,V2,....,Vn We think this will be better for future internal map structures like HAMT. Would be bad if we need to iterate twice over HAMT in term_to_binary, one for keys and one for values.

by trapping BIFs like term_to_binary and binary_to_term.
2014-02-24erts: Set default external enc to use new float schemeLukas Larsson
This change was triggered by the OSE float printing function not working exactly the same way as linux/win32. But it is also a good one in general as it cuts size in more than half for floats.
2014-02-03erts: Fix bug in binary_to_term for mapsSverker Eriksson
'maps_head' was not restored when yielding. Risk for crash increases with size and number of maps in term.
2014-01-29erts: Add map construction to driver APISverker Eriksson
erl_drv_output_term() and erl_drv_send_term() can send messages containing maps with the use of the new ERL_DRV_MAP. The driver API minor version is updated as new functionality is added.

Maps may be encoded with keys in arbitrary order. This is fine, as long as keys are unique.

2014-01-17erts: Refactor ESTACK & WSTACK to use a struct easy to "export"Sverker Eriksson
This is not a clean refactor. It changes the behaviour slightly of E/WSTACK_RESTORE. The allocated stack from E/WSTACK_SAVE is used as-is and not copied into default_stack. This will hopefully fix an illusive memory leak that valgrind is reporting.
2014-01-10erts: Simplify term_to_binary by removing saved ESTACK from root setSverker Eriksson
We disabled GC (in 522a29666088d5) during trapping and don't need to include the saved ESTACK as part of root set.

2013-11-21erts: Adjust term_to_binary reduction factorsR16B02_yielding_binary_to_termSverker Eriksson
Made them powers of 2 for faster calculations. 500 encoded terms per reductions seemed a bit much, lowered to 32. TERM_TO_BINARY_SIZE_FACTOR was not used in practice as it was only applied to small binaries. Lowered from 500kb to 256kb compressed bytes per trap call.
