2018-04-26erts: Optimize monitor signal by message piggybackSverker Eriksson
If no message/signal is sent (to same destination) then monitor signal is flushed when process is scheduled out.

2018-04-24Introduce map_get guard-safe functionMichał Muskała
Rationale Today all compound data types except for maps can be deconstructed in guards. For tuples we have `element/2` and for lists `hd/1` and `tl/1`. Maps are completely opaque to guards. This means matching on maps can't be abstracted into macros, which is often done with repetitive guards. It also means that maps have to be always selected whole from ETS tables, even when only one field would be enough, which creates a potential efficiency issue. This PR introduces an `erlang:map_get/2` guard-safe function that allows extracting a map field in guard. An alternative to this function would be to introduce the syntax for extracting a value from a map that was planned in the original EEP: `Map#{Key}`. Even outside of guards, since this function is a guard-BIF it is more efficient than using `maps:get/2` (since it does not need to set up the stack), and more convenient from pattern matching on the map (compare: `#{key := Value} = Map, Value` to `map_get(key, Map)`). Performance considerations A common concern against adding this function is the notion that "guards have to be fast" and ideally execute in constant time. While there are some counterexamples (`length/1`), what is more important is the fact that adding those functions does not change in any way the time complexity of pattern matching - it's already possible to match on map fields today directly in patterns - adding this ability to guards will niether slow down or speed up the execution, it will only make certain programs more convenient to write. This first version is very naive and does not perform any optimizations.

2018-04-23erts: Rewrite memory instrumentationJohn Högberg
This commit replaces the old memory instrumentation with a new implementation that scans carriers instead of wrapping erts_alloc/erts_free. The old implementation could not extract information without halting the emulator, had considerable runtime overhead, and the memory maps it produced were noisy and lacked critical information. Since the new implementation walks through existing data structures there's no longer a need to start the emulator with special flags to get information about carrier utilization/fragmentation. Memory fragmentation is also easier to diagnose as it's presented on a per-carrier basis which eliminates the need to account for "holes" between mmap segments. To help track allocations, each allocation can now be tagged with what it is and who allocated it at the cost of one extra word per allocation. This is controlled on a per-allocator basis with the +M<S>atags option, and is enabled by default for binary_alloc and driver_alloc (which is also used by NIFs).

2018-04-21fix integer truncation bugs in error logger pathMikael Pettersson
Sending a large term to the error logger has two problems related to the size and sign of the variables used to represent lengths: - the API functions (erts_send_error_term_to_logger() et al) perform an unchecked narrowing conversion from size_t to int when passing dsbufp->str_len to the internal functions; this may both truncate the length and make it negative - do_send_term_to_logger() and do_send_to_logger() multiply the int-typed length by 2 before widening it to Uint and adding a few more values; the intermediate product may overflow causing loss of high bits and a change of sign; if the intermediate product is negative the final size will be an extremely large positive value The end result is that the computed buffer size can be arbitrarily wrong, either too small or too large. While reviewing this code I also found and fixed a potential narrowing bug in erts_set_hole_marker().

and not the name. For more sane named table semantics. Applies to both select/1 continuation and trap context.

2018-04-20erts: Fix run queue pointer in proxy processSverker Eriksson
proc->run_queue detected as uninitialized by valgrind but seems harmless in practice as it's not used for proxy processes. "Bug" introduced in OTP-17 by ca0425c6ff85262bc15367f5fd9cbc51cde52b20 and made worse (but still harmless) in master for OTP-21 at fbb10ebc4a37555c7ea7f99e14286d862993976a.
2018-04-19Make stacktraces consistent when backtrace_depth is 0Björn Gustavsson
It is allowed to set the backtrace depth to 0, but when an exception is catched the stacktrace will still contain one element: 1> erlang:system_flag(backtrace_depth, 0). 8 2> catch error(badarg). {'EXIT',{badarg,[{shell,apply_fun,3, [{file,"shell.erl"},{line,908}]}]}} However, when an exception is raised using `erlang:raise/3`, there will be no elements in the stacktrace: 3> catch erlang:raise(error, badarg, [{fake,name,[arg],[]}]). {'EXIT',{badarg,[]}} Since the `error_handler` module uses `erlang:raise/3` to raise an exception when an undefined function is called, there will not be any stacktrace when calling an undefined function: 4> catch undef_module:undef_name(some_argument). {'EXIT',{undef,[]}} Fix this inconsistency by changing `erlang:raise/3` so that it always includes one element in the stacktrace: 3> catch erlang:raise(error, badarg, [{fake,name,[arg],[]}]). {'EXIT',{badarg,[{fake,name,[arg],[]}]}} 4> catch undef_module:undef_name(some_argument). {'EXIT',{undef,[{undef_module,undef_name,[some_argument],[]}]}}

This may be of interest in crash dumps and allows the upcoming allocation tagging feature to track allocations on a per-NIF basis. Note that this is only updated when user code calls a NIF; it's not altered when the emulator calls NIFs during code upgrades or tracing.

2018-03-26Compile external fun expressions to literalsMichał Muskała
The expressions fun M:F/A, when all elements are literals are also treated as a literal. Since they have consistent representation and don't depend on the code currently loaded in the VM, this is safe. This can provide significant performance improvements in code using such functions extensively - a full function call to erlang:make_fun/3 is replaced by a single move instruction and no register shuffling or saving registers to stack is necessary. Additionally, compound data types that contain such external functions as elements can be treated as literals too. The commit also changes the representation of external funs to be a valid Erlang syntax and adds support for literal external funs to core Erlang.
