2010-06-03OTP-8675 Fix erroneous return value from erlang:system_info(multi_scheduling)Rickard Green
erlang:system_info(multi_scheduling) sometimes erroneously returned enabled when it should have returned blocked.
2010-06-03OTP-8673 Adjust alignment of scheduler data and run queuesRickard Green
Alignment of scheduler data and run queues were adjusted.
2010-06-03OTP-8666 Enable automatic binding of schedulers when possibleRickard Green
The runtime system will by default bind schedulers to logical processors using the default_bind bind type if the amount of schedulers are at least equal to the amount of logical processors configured, binding of schedulers is supported, and a CPU topology is available at startup. NOTE: If the Erlang runtime system is the only operating system process that binds threads to logical processors, this improves the performance of the runtime system. However, if other operating system processes (as for example another Erlang runtime system) also bind threads to logical processors, there might be a performance penalty instead. If this is the case you, are are advised to unbind the schedulers using the <seealso marker="erl#+sbt">+sbtu</seealso> command line argument, or by invoking <seealso marker="erlang#system_flag_scheduler_bind_type">erlang:system_flag(schedule r_bind_type, unbound)</seealso>.

2010-05-20sys.h: Correct the get_int64() macroBjörn Gustavsson
The get_int64() macro has never been used (it was probably added for completeness at the same time that put_int64() was added), but it was not actually used and therefore it does not actually work.
2010-05-20Remove stray support for the put_literal/2 instructionBjörn Gustavsson
put_literal/2 was an experimental instruction added in R11 to support literals, but before the R12 release support for literals was implemented for all instruction, making the put_literal/2 instruction redundant. Although the beam_disasm module supports dissambley of instructions in older releases, there is no reason to have it support experimental instructions.
2010-05-20Remove the bs_bits_to_bytes/3 instructionBjörn Gustavsson
The last compiler to generate code that uses the bs_bits_to_bytes/3 instruction was the R11 compiler. Since we don't support loading R11 *.beam files in R14, removing the remaining support for the instruction.
2010-05-20erts: Stop supporting non-literal empty tuplesBjörn Gustavsson
Since R12B, empty tuples are literals. Thus the compiler will no longer generate the instruction: put_tuple 0 Destination for creating an empty tuple. It is now time to stop supporting that instruction in the run-time system. While we are at it, correct a typo.

2010-05-11erts: Implement recv_mark/1 and recv_set/1 for realBjörn Gustavsson
The recv_mark/1 instruction will both save the current position in the message queue and a mark (the address of the loop_rec/2 instruction just following the recv_set/1 instruction). The recv_mark/1 instruction will only use the saved position if the mark is correct. The reason for saving and verifying the mark is that the compiler does not need to guarantee that no other receive instruction can be executed in between the recv_mark/1 and recv_set/1 instructions (the mark will be cleared by the remove_message/0 instruction when a message is removed from the message queue). That means that arbitrary function calls in between those instruction can be allowed.
2010-05-11Introduce the new recv_mark/1 and recv_mark/1 instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Make the recv_mark/1 and recv_mark/1 instructions known to the compiler and run-time system. For the moment, make the loader ignore any occurrences of those instructions in BEAM files. Also update hipe_beam_to_icode to ignore those instructions.

2010-04-30emulator: Eliminate #ifdef for sys_tty_reset()Björn Gustavsson
In the erts/emulator/beam sources #ifdef SOME_OPERATING_SYSTEM should be avoided. Instead, call a function implemented in sys/OPERATING_SYSTEM/sys.c.

2010-04-14MacOS X: Boost default stack sizeBjörn Gustavsson
The default stack size on MacOS X for the SMP emulator is too small to support all uses of pcre. For example, the following expression N = 819, re:compile([lists:duplicate(N, $(), lists:duplicate(N, $))]). will cause a stack overflow. By bisection of different values for the +sss option, I found that 166 is the smallest value that avoids the crash. Round that up to 256 to give a nice, round power of 2 and a resonable safety margin. Use that value as a default stack size on MacOS X only.

2010-04-08system_info(procs): Fix the value for "OldHeap unused"Satoshi Kinoshita
The value for "OldHeap unused" in the output of erlang:system_info(procs) and in crash dumps, was incorrectly calculated as the size of the entire old heap.
2010-04-07erts: Fix loading of modules with invalid floating point arithmeticBjörn Gustavsson
The following program is supposed to cause an exception at run-time: foo() -> Sum1 = Sum2 = N = 2, pSum - (Sum1*(Sum2/N)). but the loader fails to load because it contains the following instruction: fconv {atom,pSum} {fr,2} Fix the loader so that it can handle fconv instructions where the first operand is a non-numeric literal.

* se/decode_packet: Fix erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) to not return faulty header strings OTP-8548 se/decode_packet erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) could return corrupt header strings or even crash the VM. This has been fixed. It only happened on 32-bit VM if the header name was unknown and between 16 and 20 characters long. Sockets with simular packet option did not suffer from this bug.
