2016-04-08Simplify the raise instruction to reduce code sizeBjörn Gustavsson
The raise/2 instruction is almost always used like this: raise x(2) x(1) Therefore, we can translate it to an internal i_raise/0 instruction that uses x(2) x(1) as its implicit operands. We will also remove the backward compatibility with R10-0. It is unlikely that anyone still is using BEAM files compiled with the R10-0 compiler, especially since most of those modules cannot be loaded. The loader will refuse to load any module that uses the old non-GCIng arithmetic instructions or the non-GCing versions of length/1 or size/1. Doing these changes will reduce both the size of the loaded BEAM code and size of the code in process_main().

2016-04-07Eliminate unnecessary renaming of bs_put_utf16/3Björn Gustavsson
There is no reason to rename bs_put_utf16/3. (We rename instructions if we'll need to change the operands or if we will need to avoid an endless transformation loop. Neither of these reasons apply to bs_put_utf16/3.)
2016-04-07Don't let the loader do the compiler's jobBjörn Gustavsson
Optimizations that are possible to do by the compiler should be done by the compiler and not by the loader. If the compiler has done its job correctly, attempting to do the two transformations only wastes time.
2016-04-07Avoid rebuilding unchanged instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
In transformations such as: move S X0=x==0 | line Loc | call_ext Ar Func => \ line Loc | move S X0 | call_ext Ar Func we can avoid rebuilding the last instruction in the sequence by introducing a 'keep' instruction. Currently, there are only 13 transformations that are hit by this optimization, but most of them are frequently used.
2016-04-07Introduce a 'rename' instructionBjörn Gustavsson
Introduce a 'rename' instruction that can be used to optimize simple renaming with unchanged operands such as: get_tuple_element Reg P Dst => i_get_tuple_element Reg P Dst By allowing it to lower the arity of instruction, transformations such as the following can be handled: trim N Remaining => i_trim N All in all, currently 67 transformations can be optimized in this way, including some commonly used ones.
2016-04-07Simplify window management for the transformation engineBjörn Gustavsson
Generic instructions have a min_window field. Its purpose is to avoid calling transform_engine() when there are too few instructions in the current "transformation window" for a transformation to succeed. Currently it does not do much good since the window size will be decremented by one before being used. The reason for the subtraction is probably that in some circumstances in the past, the loader could read past the end of the BEAM module while attempting to fetch instructions to increase the window size. Therefore, it would not be safe to just remove the subtraction by one. The simplest and safest solution seems to always ensure that there are always at least TWO instructions when calling transform_engine(). That will be safe, as long as a BEAM module is always finished with an int_code_end/0 that is not involved in any transformation.
2016-04-07Eliminate allocation of variables in transform_engine()Björn Gustavsson
When an instruction with a variable number operands (such as select_val) is seen of the left side of a transformation, the 'next_arg' instruction will allocate a buffer to fit all variables and all operands will be copied into the buffer. Very often, the 'commit' instruction will never be reached because of a test or predicate failing or because of a short window; in that case, the variable buffer will be deallocated. Note that originally there were only few instructions with a variable number of operands, but now common operations such as tuple building also have a variable number of operands. To avoid those frequent allocations and deallocations, modify the 'next_arg' instruction to only save a pointer to the first of the "rest" arguments. Also move the deallocation of the instructions on the left side from the 'commit' instruction to the 'end' instruction to ensure that 'store_rest_args' will still work.

2016-04-06Refactor calls to transform_engine()Björn Gustavsson
We used to set last_op_next and last_op to NULL just in case. Setting last_op_next to causes a rescan of the instructions to find the last instruction in the chain, so we would want to avoid that unless really necessary.

and a concurrent exit signal. We now actually guarantee that the process will not die from exit signal *after* the call to process_flag(trap_exit,true) has returned. The race is narrow and probably quite hard to observe even if you manage to provoke it. Has only been confirmed with the help of return trace and a sleep in send_exit_signal(). Solution: Seize status lock to prevent send_exit_signal() from reading an old status (without TRAP_EXIT) and then writing PENDING_EXIT after TRAP_EXIT has been set by process_flag_2().

2016-03-29erts: inline tag_val_defLukas Larsson
The tag_val_def function was called and multiple switch statements had to be traversed in term.c, and then a big switch in the calling code to branch on the term types. By inlining the switches are merged by the compiler and a lot fewer branches have to be taken. Benchmarks show that this increases performance of enc_term by as much as 10%.
