We only do this when the user has explicitly told us it's okay to partially disable mitigation (spectre-mitigation=incomplete). The macro is inert if it isn't.

2018-11-13Fix broken assertion on monitor releaseJohn Högberg
We sometimes bump the refc without messing with the table, which means that we sometimes decrement it while in the table, causing the old assertion to fail. The property we want to check is that neither end of the monitor is present in the table when the monitor is deleted.

2018-11-06Merge branch 'bjorn/erts/persistent_terms/OTP-14669' into maintBjörn Gustavsson
* bjorn/erts/persistent_terms/OTP-14669: Implement a tab for persistent terms in crashdump viewer Add tests of persistent terms for crashdump_viewer Add a persistent term storage Refactor releasing of literals Extend the sharing-preserving routines to optionally copy literals
2018-11-06Add a persistent term storageBjörn Gustavsson
Persistent terms are useful for storing Erlang terms that are never or infrequently updated. They have the following advantages: * Constant time access. A persistent term is not copied when it is looked up. The constant factor is lower than for ETS, and no locks are taken when looking up a term. * Persistent terms are not copied in garbage collections. * There is only ever one copy of a persistent term (until it is deleted). That makes them useful for storing configuration data that needs to be easily accessible by all processes. Persistent terms have the following drawbacks: * Updates are expensive. The hash table holding the keys for the persistent terms are updated whenever a persistent term is added, updated or deleted. * Updating or deleting a persistent term triggers a "global GC", which will schedule a heap scan of all processes to search the heap of all processes for the deleted term. If a process still holds a reference to the deleted term, the process will be garbage collected and the term copied to the heap of the process. This global GC can make the system less responsive for some time. Three BIFs (implemented in C in the emulator) is the entire interface to the persistent term functionality: * put(Key, Value) to store a persistent term. * get(Key) to look up a persistent term. * erase(Key) to delete a persistent term. There are also two additional BIFs to obtain information about persistent terms: * info() to return a map with information about persistent terms. * get() to return a list of a {Key,Value} tuples for all persistent terms. (The values are not copied.)

Introudce erts_queue_release_literals() to queue a literal area to be released.
2018-10-29Optimize operator '--' and yield on large inputsJohn Högberg
The removal set now uses a red-black tree instead of an array on large inputs, decreasing runtime complexity from `n*n` to `n*log(n)`. It will also exit early when there are no more items left in the removal set, drastically improving performance and memory use when the items to be removed are present near the head of the list. This got a lot more complicated than before as the overhead of always using a red-black tree was unacceptable when either of the inputs were small, but this compromise has okay-to-decent performance regardless of input size.

The first stage wasn't bounded by reductions, and it bumped far more reductions than it should have due to a logic bug.
2018-10-24Extend the sharing-preserving routines to optionally copy literalsBjörn Gustavsson
In the implementation of the zero-copying term storage, we want to preserve sharing, but not copy literals because the modules holding the literals could be unloaded under our feet.
2018-10-23erts: Make thr prgr wakeup current or sched 1Lukas Larsson
Before this change, it was always the aux thread that was woken to handle thread progress events scheduled to happen when all schedulers were going to sleep. This was ok in the pre-OTP-21 implementation when the aux thread just slept on a tse. Now that it sleeps in the fallback pollset this uses too much cpu so instead we wake the thread that is doing the request if it is a managed thread, or else we wake scheduler 1.
2018-10-23erts: Pass thread progress data where possibleLukas Larsson
The poll thread does a lot of waking up and then going back to sleep. A large part of the waking up is managing thread progress and a large part of that was using thread specific data to get the thread progress data pointer. With this refactor the tpd is passed to each of the functions which greatly decreases the number of ethr_get_tsd calls which in turn halves the CPU usage of the poller thread in certain scenarios.
2018-10-19Honor the max heap size when copying literals after purgingBjörn Gustavsson
When a module has been purged from memory, any literals belonging to that module will be copied to all processes that hold references to them. The max heap size limit would be ignored in the garbage collection initiated when copying literals to a process. If the max heap size was exceeded, the process would typically be terminated in the following garbage collection. Since the process would be killed anyway later, kill the process before copying a literal that would make it exceed its max heap size. While at it, also fix a potential bug in `erlang:garbage_collect/0`. If it was found that the max heap sized had been exceeded while executing `erlang:garbage_collect/0`, the process would enter a kind of zombie state instead of being properly terminated.

Otherwise it should behave like ERTS_DE_STATE_CONNECTED.

2018-09-13Improve trapping in lists:reverse/2John Högberg
If the process had more free space than reductions it could run a lot longer than it was supposed to. It didn't honor the number of reductions going in either, nor did it bump reductions when returning its result or erroring out. This commit also removes this function from a work function in scheduler_SUITE as it's extremely sensitive to the number of reductions spent in the test, causing equal_and_high_with_part_time_max to fail on some machines.

If net_kernel "forgets" to abort a connection (as it currently might), the garbage collection of a distribution entry could cause node lists to enter an inconsistent state.
2018-09-04Fix an endless rescheduling loop when a process is executing ↵Maxim Fedorov
process_info(self(), ...) It is possible that a process has to yield before completing process_info BIF when it runs out of reductions. If this BIF is called by the process itself, it does not send a signal but executes in the context of a process. If it has to yield, it turns F_LOCAL_SIGS_ONLY flag on, which means new signals won't be fetched from the outer message queue. When the same process needs to execute dirty system code (e.g. dirty GC) it has to be run on a dirty scheduler. However signals enqueued into outer queue cause it to be rescheduled on a normal scheduler. F_LOCAL_SIGS_ONLY prevent outer queue signals delivery, creating an endless rescheduling loop. This commit disengages F_LOCAL_SIG_ONLY if process needs to execute dirty code in order to complete signal delivery and allow process to be moved to dirty run queue.

2018-09-03ops.tab: Fix potentially unsafe optimization of raise/2Björn Gustavsson
The operands for the raise/2 instruction are almost always in x(2) and x(1). Therefore the loader translates the raise/2 instruction to an i_raise/0 instruction which uses the values in x(2) and x(1). If the operands happens to be in other registers, the loader inserts move/2 instruction to move them to x(2) and x(1). The problem is that x(3) is used as a temporary register when generating the move/2 instructions. That is unsafe if the Value operand for raise/2 is x(3). Thus: raise x(0) x(3) will be translated to: move x(0) x(3) move x(3) x(1) move x(3) x(2) i_raise The Trace will be written to both x(2) and x(1). The current compiler will never use x(3) for the Value operand, so there is no need to patch previous releases. But a future compiler version might allocate registers differently.
