2018-02-08Optimize non-strict equality check of binaries differing in sizePhilip Stears
This commit brings the perform of a non-strict equality check of binaries into the same range as strict ones. Currently, these checks can be significantly slower because they go through the general comparison code which doesn't have an optimization to check the size before comparing contents in the case that it's checking equality.
2018-01-03Replace the libc environment with a thread-safe emulationJohn Högberg
putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before) keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3) without honoring our lock. This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.

This allows us to enable/disable lock counting at will, and greatly improves the performance of erts_debug:lock_counters/1 since we no longer have to worry about the lock counters "dying" while we're enumerating them. OTP-14412

2017-02-06Add binary overhead for magic ref/binariesRickard 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.

* maint: Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMP Conflicts: erts/emulator/beam/erl_fun.c
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()

* josevalim/atu8-chunk/PR-1078/OTP-14178: Add new AtU8 beam chunk
2017-01-30Add new AtU8 beam chunkJosé Valim
The new chunk stores atoms encoded in UTF-8. beam_lib has also been modified to handle the new 'utf8_atoms' attribute while the 'atoms' attribute may be a missing chunk from now on. The binary_to_atom/2 BIF can now encode any utf8 binary with up to 255 characters. The list_to_atom/1 BIF can now accept codepoints higher than 255 with up to 255 characters (thanks to Björn Gustavsson).

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.

2016-07-21erts: Fix internal hashing entropy for mapsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
We need to use an initial hash seed for each map pair, i.e. the hash value. The hash value is reset to the seed for each pair instead of setting the seed to zero. If we don't, no additional entropy is given to the system and the hash collision resolution in maps:from_list/1 would fail.

2016-04-26erts: Remove some dead codeLukas Larsson
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).
