2016-10-14erts: Check hipe stack in check_process_codeMagnus Lång
This is part of commit 1bd508921dd93086b05e7d0038b816b36c421d86. I did not include the fun-checking as we have a new purge strategy for funs in OTP 20. That remains to be solved some other way for hipe.
2016-10-10erts: Improve hipe load/upgrade/purge machinerySverker Eriksson
A step toward better integration of hipe load and purge Highlights: * code_server no longer needs to call hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1 Instead new internal function hipe_redirect_to_module() is called by loading BIFs to patch native call sites if needed. * hipe_purge_module() is called by erts_internal:purge_module/2 to purge any native code. * struct hipe_mfa_info redesigned and only used for exported functions that are called from or implemented by native code. A list of native call sites (struct hipe_ref) are kept for each hipe_mfa_info. * struct hipe_sdesc used by hipe_find_mfa_from_ra() to build native stack traces.

2016-07-06check_process_code: Sweep HiPE stack for literalsMagnus Lång
Because check_process_code neglected checking the HiPE stack for references to the literal area, such references would survive the purge and subsequent deletion of a module and its literal area. These dangling references would then cause incorrect behaviour or even hard crashes of the VM. By simply adding a scan of the HiPE stack to check_process_code and erts_garbage_collect_literals, this problem is fixed. In order to support full stack walks without deleting the graylimit trap, a new stack walking interface function, nstack_walk_init_sdesc_ignore_trap() was introduced.

Use am_undefined as it seems to be more releable to exist.
