2016-11-29erts: Use secret atom as sysname for ETS compressedSverker Eriksson

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.
2016-06-15erts: Change local sysname for ETS compressedSverker Eriksson
Yes this is an ugly workaround. One approach for a better solution could be to introduce an internal secret atom tagged as an atom with a unique index, but impossible to find by string hash lookup/insert.

2016-04-15erts: Silence harmless valgrind warning in dec_termSverker Eriksson
provoked by nif_SUITE:nif_binary_to_term. If we fail to decode an immediate (unsafe atom for example) with a dummy factory then hp and factory->hp will both be uninitialized and valgrind will complain about comparing them.

2016-04-07erts: Refactor ETS compressed encoding of local nodeSverker Eriksson
Instead of INTERNAL_CREATION (255), use empty atom for node name to mean the local node (regardless of node name or creation). The purpose is to get rid of special value 255, for future expansion of creation to 32-bit.

2016-02-24erts: Change erl_exit into erts_exitSverker Eriksson
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).

Decoding a term with a large (HAMT) map in an small (FLAT) map could cause a critical error if the external format was not produced by beam.

2015-06-15erts: Remove hashmap probabilistic heap overestimationSverker Eriksson
by adding a dynamic heap factory. "binary_to_term" is now a hybrid solution with both a call to decoded_size() to calculate needed heap space AND possible dynamic allocation of more heap space if needed for big maps. The heap size returned from decoded_size() is guaranteed to be sufficient for all term heap data except for hashmap nodes. All hashmap nodes are created at the end of dec_term() by invoking the heap factory interface that may allocate more heap space on process heap or in fragments. With this commit it is no longer guaranteed that a message is confined to only one heap fragment.
2015-03-30erts: Refactor encode_size_struct_intSverker Eriksson
to handle the "start of list" case in one place and not seven. Note that this commit reverts (47d6fd3ccf35) back to using WSTACK and pushing raw pointers. We disable GC while yielding, so this should not be a problem.

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: 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.
