2016-04-15erts: Implement tracer modulesLukas Larsson
Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example). This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API. This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive) the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp out of order. Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments. OTP-10267

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).

2016-02-15Avoid erts_cmp jump in atom, int and float comparisonsJosé Valim
Given the function definition below: check(X) when X >= 0, X <= 20 -> true. @nox has originally noticed that perfoming lt and ge guard tests were performing slower than they should be. Further investigation revealed that most of the cost was in jumping to the erts_cmp function. This patch brings the operations already inlined in erts_cmp into the emulator, removing the jump cost. After applying these changes, invoking the check/1 function defined above 30000 times with different values from 0 to 20 has fallen from 367us to 213us (measured as average of 3 runs). This is a considerably improvement over Erlang 18 which takes 556us on average. Floats have also dropped their time from 1126us (on Erlang 18) to 613us.

This avoids potential integer arithmetic overflow for very large lists.

2015-11-12Fragmented young heap generation and off_heap_message_queue optionRickard Green
* The youngest generation of the heap can now consist of multiple blocks. Heap fragments and message fragments are added to the youngest generation when needed without triggering a GC. After a GC the youngest generation is contained in one single block. * The off_heap_message_queue process flag has been added. When enabled all message data in the queue is kept off heap. When a message is selected from the queue, the message fragment (or heap fragment) containing the actual message is attached to the youngest generation. Messages stored off heap is not part of GC.

If the process stack contained a match state the print function would crash the vm as it was not recognized by tag_val_def(). Add new MATCHSTATE_DEF returned by tag_val_def(). All other callers either ignore it or has a default clause to handle invalid terms.

* egil/fix-hash-float-zero/OTP-12641: erts: Ensure hashing of zero is consistent
2015-04-10erts: Ensure hashing of zero is consistentBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Erlang treats positive and negative zero as equal, meaning, true = 0.0 =:= 0.0/-1 However, Erlangs hash functions: hash, phash and phash2 did not reflect this behaviour. Meaning, the hash values produced by the different hash functions would not be identical for positive and negative zero. This commit ensures that hash value of positive zero is always produced regardless of the signedness of the zero float, i.e. true = erlang:phash2(0.0) =:= erlang:phash2(0.0/-1)

2015-03-20Multiple timer wheelsRickard Green
2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
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.
