The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with
erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many
unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together
and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as
accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need
to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality
over multiple functions in order to improve on this.
The new API consists of a number of new BIFs:
- erlang:convert_time_unit/3
- erlang:monotonic_time/0
- erlang:monotonic_time/1
- erlang:system_time/0
- erlang:system_time/1
- erlang:time_offset/0
- erlang:time_offset/1
- erlang:timestamp/0
- erlang:unique_integer/0
- erlang:unique_integer/1
- os:system_time/0
- os:system_time/1
and a number of extensions of existing BIFs:
- erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service)
- erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize)
- erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source)
- erlang:system_info(time_offset)
- erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode)
- erlang:system_info(time_correction)
- erlang:system_info(start_time)
See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the
ERTS User's Guide for more information.

* sverk/term2bin-simplify:
erts: Refactor ESTACK & WSTACK to use a struct easy to "export"
erts: Fix benign ESTACK/WSTACK typo
erts: Fix compiler warnings for NO_JUMP_TABLE
erts: Run binary_SUITE:trapping even for 32bit
erts: Extend binary_SUITE:ttb_trap to also cover binary_to_term
erts: Remove the extra_root feature from the process structure
erts: Simplify term_to_binary by removing saved ESTACK from root set

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.

Being able to disable garbage collection over context
switches vastly simplifies implementation of yielding
native code that builds large or complex data structures
on the heap. This since the heap can be left in an
inconsistent state over the context switch.

A process requesting a system task to be executed in the context of
another process will be notified by a message when the task has
executed. This message will be on the form:
{RequestType, RequestId, Pid, Result}.
A process requesting a system task to be executed can set priority
on the system task. The requester typically set the same priority
on the task as its own process priority, and by this avoiding
priority inversion. A request for execution of a system task is
made by calling the statically linked in NIF
erts_internal:request_system_task(Pid, Prio, Request). This is an
undocumented ERTS internal function that should remain so. It
should *only* be called from BIF implementations.
Currently defined system tasks are:
* garbage_collect
* check_process_code
Further system tasks can and will be implemented in the future.
The erlang:garbage_collect/[1,2] and erlang:check_process_code/[2,3]
BIFs are now implemented using system tasks. Both the
'garbage_collect' and the 'check_process_code' operations perform
or may perform garbage_collections. By doing these via the
system task functionality all garbage collect operations in the
system will be performed solely in the context of the process
being garbage collected. This makes it possible to later implement
functionality for disabling garbage collection of a process over
context switches.
Newly introduced BIFs:
* erlang:garbage_collect/2 - The new second argument is an option
list. Introduced option:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous garbage collect requests.
* erlang:check_process_code/3 - The new third argument is an
option list. Introduced options:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous check process code requests.
* {allow_gc, boolean()} - making it possible to issue requests
that aren't allowed to garbage collect (operation will abort
if gc should be needed).
These options have been introduced as a preparation for
parallelization of check_process_code operations when the
code_server is about to purge a module.

Rewrite and extend of Happi's initial work
Extra_root to process structure to enable GC of state - Changed the
process structure to point to a separate struct, the struct also
contains a destructor function to allow for proper cleanup.
Rewrote encode_size_struct and enc_term to have internal versions with
reduction counters which will result in interrupt for later restart
when the counter reaches zero - removed the EWA_STACK from Happis
version and directly save the ESTACK's and WSTACK's in the above
mentioned struct (or array thereof) that are pointed out from the
process structure. The destructor will take care of the deallocation
in case of process death.
Added ESTACK and WSTACK macros to save and restore stack and to change
allocator, which makes the previously mentioned stack-save work.
Rewrote enc_term to not store pointers on the stack, and use one WSTACK
for commands etc and another ESTACK for Eterms - Slightly different than
Happis version to make halfword code simpler.
Rewrote encode_size_struct2 so that it does not store pointers on the
stack, also switched to ESTACK instead of WSTACK, this also handles
halfword correctly.
Added interfaces for chunkwise compression, that are
used from term_to_binary/2 when the compressed option is given.
