* rickard/fix-faulty-assert/OTP-8759: Fix faulty no_empty_run_queues assertion
2010-08-18Make it possible to reread and update detected CPU informationRickard Green
Calling erlang:system_info/1 with the new argument 'update_cpu_info' will make the runtime system reread and update the internally stored CPU information. For more information see the documentation of erlang:system_info(update_cpu_info).
2010-08-17erts: Remove broken elib_mallocBjörn Gustavsson
elib_malloc is an alternate memory allocator that is no longer possible to build.
2010-08-17erts: Remove stray pre-ISO-C compatibility macrosBjörn Gustavsson
A long time ago, the Erlang run-time system could be build with pre-ANSI/ISO-C (K&R) C compilers, but that is no longer possible. Remove the remaining uses of the compatibility macros that made it possible that possible.
2010-08-14erts: Remove unused decl.hBjörn Gustavsson
The header file erts/emulator/beam/decl.h is no longer used.
2010-08-12Increase vheap counter to Uint64Björn-Egil Dahlberg
This will reduce the risk of integer wrapping in bin vheap counting. The vheap size series will now use the golden ratio instead of doubling and fibonacci sequences. OTP #8730

OTP #8730
2010-08-12Merge branch 'bjorn/remove-obsolete-driver-support/OTP-8758' into devBjörn Gustavsson
* bjorn/remove-obsolete-driver-support/OTP-8758: Remove obsolete/driver.h and the associated functionality
2010-08-11Fix faulty no_empty_run_queues assertionRickard Green
For a short period of time no_empty_run_queues may have been increased twice for a specific run queue. Two assertions did not take this into account.
2010-08-11Remove obsolete/driver.h and the associated functionalityBjörn Gustavsson
The obsolete/driver.h header file has been obsolete since R8B. Remove that file, along with obsolete thread APIs for drivers in the emulator and the test cases.

2010-08-10Merge branch 'rickard/ethread-rewrite/OTP-8544' into devRickard Green
* rickard/ethread-rewrite/OTP-8544: Rewrite ethread library
2010-08-10Rewrite ethread libraryRickard Green
Large parts of the ethread library have been rewritten. The ethread library is an Erlang runtime system internal, portable thread library used by the runtime system itself. Most notable improvement is a reader optimized rwlock implementation which dramatically improve the performance of read-lock/read-unlock operations on multi processor systems by avoiding ping-ponging of the rwlock cache lines. The reader optimized rwlock implementation is used by miscellaneous rwlocks in the runtime system that are known to be read-locked frequently, and can be enabled on ETS tables by passing the `{read_concurrency, true}' option upon table creation. See the documentation of `ets:new/2' for more information. The ethread library can now also use the libatomic_ops library for atomic memory accesses. This makes it possible for the Erlang runtime system to utilize optimized atomic operations on more platforms than before. Use the `--with-libatomic_ops=PATH' configure command line argument when specifying where the libatomic_ops installation is located. The libatomic_ops library can be downloaded from: http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/ The changed API of the ethread library has also caused modifications in the Erlang runtime system. Preparations for the to come "delayed deallocation" feature has also been done since it depends on the ethread library. Note: When building for x86, the ethread library will now use instructions that first appeared on the pentium 4 processor. If you want the runtime system to be compatible with older processors (back to 486) you need to pass the `--enable-ethread-pre-pentium4-compatibility' configure command line argument when configuring the system.
2010-08-07Align trailing message data for all types of structuresRickard Green
Alignment of trailing data in messages has been adjusted. This in order to be able to pass data of any type as trailing data in the future.

2010-07-20Merge branch 'sverker/one_offheap_list/OTP-8737' into devSverker Eriksson
* sverker/one_offheap_list/OTP-8737: One off-heap list, to eliminate two words per ETS object.
2010-07-20One off-heap list, to eliminate two words per ETS object.Sverker Eriksson
Merging the three off-heap lists (binaries, funs and externals) into one list. This reduces memory consumption by two words (pointers) per ETS object.
2010-07-20Merge branch 'sverker/ets_select_hang/OTP-8732' into devSverker Eriksson
* sverker/ets_select_hang/OTP-8732: Fix ets:select hanging on ordered_set with empty list as key.
2010-07-08Merge branch 'sverker/full_INTEGER_EXT/OTP-8540' into devSverker Eriksson
* sverker/full_INTEGER_EXT/OTP-8540: term_to_binary use all 32 bits of INTEGER_EXT
2010-07-08Merge branch 'sverker/driver_int64_bug/OTP-8716' into devSverker Eriksson
* sverker/driver_int64_bug/OTP-8716: Fix bug that caused faulty 64-bit integers from drivers.
2010-07-07Fix ets:select hanging on ordered_set with empty list as key.Sverker Eriksson
erl_db_tree.c incorrectly used NIL (empty list) as "lastkey" to mark start of the iteration. A real NIL key could then cause a select or match iteration to be restarted over and over again if the last key before a trap happended to be NIL. Changed NIL to THE_NON_VALUE. Should be ok as the initial key value can never be put into any continuation tuple.
2010-07-07Merge branch 'se/http_response_empty_phrase' into devRaimo Niskanen
* se/http_response_empty_phrase: {packet,http} allow empty response phrase
2010-07-05term_to_binary use all 32 bits of INTEGER_EXTSverker Eriksson
Earlier, external format INTEGER_EXT was only produced for 28-bit signed integers. Now full 32-bit signed integers are produced as INTEGER_EXT to avoid the more costly SMALL_BIG_EXT format. Both old and new code can read 32-bit INTEGER_EXT. Also fixed integer encoding bugs in erl_interface erl_encode/erl_decode. (Thanks to Alexander Demidenko for reporting)
2010-06-30Fix bug that caused faulty 64-bit integers from drivers.Sverker Eriksson
2010-06-23Teach erl_time_sup to handle timezones w/o DST on FreeBSD as on other platformsPatrik Nyblom
This change handles erlang:localtime_to_universaltime(...,true) in timezones without DST in a consistent way over platforms. Specifically BSD did return an (accurate) -1 from mktime, which blew things up. Now all platforms regard no DST as a DST with delta zero. Linux, SunOS, MacOS etc already did this, why the behaviour on BSD was updated to the slightly incorrect one instead of breaking backward compatibility on most other platforms. Before this change, erlang:localtime_to_universaltime({{2008, 8, 1}, {0, 0, 0}},true) would return {1969, 12, 31}, {23, 59, 59}} when TZ=UTC on FreeBSD, now it mimics the behaviour of other systems and returns {{2008, 8, 1},{0, 0, 0}}. The problem was originally reported by Paul Guyot on erlang-bugs mailing list: http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-bugs/2008-November/001077.html This correction replaces earlier BSD specific open source patches for this problem.
2010-06-14OTP-8710 Fix emulator crash caused by setting CPU topologyRickard Green
A user defined CPU topology set via a call to <seealso marker="erlang#system_flag_cpu_topology">erlang:system_flag(cpu_topology, CPUTopology)</seealso> was not properly verified, and could in worst case cause an emulator crash. The emulator crash could only occur when a user defined CPU topology already existed and was redefined.
2010-06-10{packet,http} allow empty response phraseSverker Eriksson
Packet type 'http' for erlang:deocode:packet and gen_tcp allow a response line with an empty phrase string, like "HTTP/1.1 200\r\n". Earlier, an empty phrase was only accepted if the status code was followed by space or tab, like "HTTP/1.1 200 \r\n".

2010-06-03Fix bp_hash_put to do hash value after rehashBjörn-Egil Dahlberg

2010-06-03Teach erlang:system_info/1 to list snifsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg

2010-06-03Fix BeamInstr code array in export.hBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
2010-06-03Teach call count tracing to use atomicsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Call count previously used a global lock for accessing and writing its counter in the breakpoint. This is now changed to atomics instead. The change will let call count tracing and cprof to scale better when increasing the number of schedulers.
2010-06-03Add a scheduler array for BpData at BeamInstr[-4]Björn-Egil Dahlberg
To solve the issue of multiple schedulers constantly updating the head pointer to the bp data wheel, each scheduler now has its own entrypoint to the wheel. This head pointer can be updated without a locking being taken. Previously there were no lock ...

2010-06-03Fix BeamInstr for call_timeBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
2010-06-03Teach call_time trace to use intruction pointersBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
call_time trace will use instruction pointers instead of breakpoint data pointers. More costly lookup but the bdt structure might be deallocated, we do not want that. Remove unnecessary pattern lock.
