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.

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).
