2014-01-28erts: Add the type-testing guard BIF is_map/1Björn-Egil Dahlberg
To add a type-testing guard BIF, the following steps are needed: * The BIF itself is added to bif.tab (note that it should be declared using "ubif", not "bif"), and its implementation to erl_bif_op.c. * erl_internal must be modified in 3 places: The type test must be recognized as guard BIF, as a type test, and it must be auto-imported. * There must be an instruction that implements the same type test as the BIF (it will be used in guards). beam_utils:bif_to_test/3 must be updated to recognize the new guard BIF.

* vinoski/ds: initial support for dirty schedulers and dirty NIFs
2014-01-28initial support for dirty schedulers and dirty NIFsSteve Vinoski
Add initial support for dirty schedulers. There are two types of dirty schedulers: CPU schedulers and I/O schedulers. By default, there are as many dirty CPU schedulers as there are normal schedulers and as many dirty CPU schedulers online as normal schedulers online. There are 10 dirty I/O schedulers (similar to the choice of 10 as the default for async threads). By default, dirty schedulers are disabled and conditionally compiled out. To enable them, you must pass --enable-dirty-schedulers to the top-level configure script when building Erlang/OTP. Current dirty scheduler support requires the emulator to be built with SMP support. This restriction will be lifted in the future. You can specify the number of dirty schedulers with the command-line options +SDcpu (for dirty CPU schedulers) and +SDio (for dirty I/O schedulers). The +SDcpu option is similar to the +S option in that it takes two numbers separated by a colon: C1:C2, where C1 specifies the number of dirty schedulers available and C2 specifies the number of dirty schedulers online. The +SDPcpu option allows numbers of dirty CPU schedulers available and dirty CPU schedulers online to be specified as percentages, similar to the existing +SP option for normal schedulers. The number of dirty CPU schedulers created and dirty CPU schedulers online may not exceed the number of normal schedulers created and normal schedulers online, respectively. The +SDio option takes only a single number specifying the number of dirty I/O schedulers available and online. There is no support yet for programmatically changing at run time the number of dirty CPU schedulers online via erlang:system_flag/2. Also, changing the number of normal schedulers online via erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, NewSchedulersOnline) should ensure that there are no more dirty CPU schedulers than normal schedulers, but this is not yet implemented. You can retrieve the number of dirty schedulers by passing dirty_cpu_schedulers, dirty_cpu_schedulers_online, or dirty_io_schedulers to erlang:system_info/1. Currently only NIFs are able to access dirty scheduler functionality. Neither drivers nor BIFs currently support dirty schedulers. This restriction will be addressed in the future. If dirty scheduler support is present in the runtime, the initial status line Erlang prints before presenting its interactive prompt will include the indicator "[ds:C1:C2:I]" where "ds" indicates "dirty schedulers", "C1" indicates the number of dirty CPU schedulers available, "C2" indicates the number of dirty CPU schedulers online, and "I" indicates the number of dirty I/O schedulers. Document The dirty NIF API in the erl_nif man page. The API closely follows Rickard Green's presentation slides from his talk "Future Extensions to the Native Interface", presented at the 2011 Erlang Factory held in the San Francisco Bay Area. Rickard's slides are available online at http://bit.ly/1m34UHB . Document the new erl command-line options, the additions to erlang:system_info/1, and also add the erlang:system_flag/2 dirty scheduler documentation even though it's not yet implemented. To determine whether the dirty NIF API is available, native code can check to see whether the C preprocessor macro ERL_NIF_DIRTY_SCHEDULER_SUPPORT is defined. To check if dirty schedulers are available at run time, native code can call the boolean enif_have_dirty_schedulers() function, and Erlang code can call erlang:system_info(dirty_cpu_schedulers), which raises badarg if no dirty scheduler support is available. Add a simple dirty NIF test to the emulator NIF suite.

2014-01-17erts: Refactor ESTACK & WSTACK to use a struct easy to "export"Sverker Eriksson
This is not a clean refactor. It changes the behaviour slightly of E/WSTACK_RESTORE. The allocated stack from E/WSTACK_SAVE is used as-is and not copied into default_stack. This will hopefully fix an illusive memory leak that valgrind is reporting.
2014-01-15fix system_flag deprecation warningsSteve Vinoski
Passing cpu_topology or scheduler_bind_type to erlang:system_flag/2 results in an error report warning that the argument is deprecated and is slated for removal in erts-5.10/OTP-R16. Since we're already past that version and no substitute approach has yet been decided for these features, keep the deprecation warning but bump the removal version it mentions up to Erlang 18.

Some time ago the driver_async_cancel function was deprecated and slated for removal in R17. This commit removes the function along with its associated tests and documentation, sets the ERL_DRV_EXTENDED_MAJOR_VERSION to 3 and ERL_DRV_EXTENDED_MINOR_VERSION to 0, and modifies the sys_info_base_drv and sys_info_prev_drv tests in the driver test suite to check version 3.0 instead of 2.0.

2014-01-09erts: Increase gc tenure rateBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
The garbage collector tries to maintain the previous heap block size during a minor gc, i.e. 'need' is not utilized in determining the size of the new heap, instead it relies on tenure and garbage to be sufficiently large. In instances during intense growing with exlusively live data on the heap coupled with delayed tenure, fullsweeps would be triggered directly after a minor gc to make room for 'need' since the new heap would be full. To remedy this, the tenure of terms on the minor heap will always happen (if it is below the high watermark) instead of every other minor gc.

2014-01-07erts: Fix bs_get_integer instructionBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
The instruction bs_get_integer could unnecessarily trigger a garbage collection in failure cases which is unwanted or outright dangerous. Ex: <<X:Sz,_/bits>> = <<"some binary">> Previously, if Sz induced X to a bignum it would reserved memory size this on the heap via a garbage collection before checking if the size could actually match. It will now check the binary size before triggering a collection.
