Perfctr is a Linux kernel extension that allows programmatic access
to the performance monitoring counters found in most current CPUs.
However, development of perfctr ceased after 2010, and it cannot be
used with Linux kernels newer than 2.6.32.
Therefore the perfctr support code in the Erlang VM is effectively
dead code, so this patch removes it.

The hipe_bifs:make_native_stub/2 and hipe_bifs:get_emu_address/1
BIFs were originally used by hipe_unified_loader.erl, but the
code been obsolete and disabled for ages.
Remove the BIFs and all references to them.
In hipe_unified_loader.erl, remove the no-op emu_make_stubs/1
function.

The HIPE_ALLOC_CODE macro in the HiPE runtime was introduced
ages ago to allow x86 and amd64 to switch from erts_alloc()
to an mmap() implementation with proper flag setting. Nowadays
the macro is identical on all platforms, and serves no purpose.
Delete the macro, move the hipe_alloc_code() prototype to
hipe_arch.h, and simplify hipe_bifs_enter_code_2().

HiPE on ARM is currently severely broken if the rest of the VM is
compiled to run in Thumb mode -- calling native code quickly ends
up executing code in the wrong mode and crashing the VM. This is
a problem on e.g. Ubuntu which configures its system GCC to generate
Thumb by default. It can also be triggered by overriding CC or
CFLAGS when compiling the VM.
There were three issues that caused the breakage:
1. Assembly-coded functions in hipe_arm_glue.S weren't explicitly
tagged as functions, preventing the linker from generating the
correct mode-switching call instructions for calls from C to
these functions.
Fixed by tagging those symbols as functions.
2. A few BIF wrappers were so simple that they performed tailcalls
to the C BIFs. This fails to switch mode when C is in Thumb.
Fixed by performing ordinary recursive calls when C is in Thumb.
3. The assembly-coded source files weren't explicitly tagged as ARM.
Tested with the HiPE testsuite on ARMv7, with the VM built as ARM
and as Thumb. Also manually inspected the object code for the beam
executable and checked that call sites from C to HiPE's ARM runtime
code and vice versa used the correct mode-switching instructions.

OS X Mavericks builds result in a number of warnings about finite() being
deprecated, like these:
beam/erl_arith.c:451:7: warning: 'finite' is deprecated: first deprecated in OS X 10.9 [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
ERTS_FP_ERROR(p, f1.fd, goto badarith);
^
sys/unix/erl_unix_sys.h:319:33: note: expanded from macro 'ERTS_FP_ERROR'
^
sys/unix/erl_unix_sys.h:244:51: note: expanded from macro '__ERTS_FP_ERROR'
^
/usr/include/math.h:718:12: note: 'finite' has been explicitly marked deprecated here
extern int finite(double) __OSX_AVAILABLE_BUT_DEPRECATED(__MAC_10_0, __MAC_10_9, __IPHONE_NA, __IPHONE_NA);
Add checks to use isfinite() instead of finite() where available. Verified
on OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 and Ubuntu 12.04.

* sverk/hipe-inline-reserve-trap-frame:
erts: Extend usage of ASM macro to avoid including asm macros in C code
erts: Make hipe_{un}reserve_beam_trap_frame INLINE
|
|
and reduce the probability of macro name collisions
Catalyst: ppc macro "r0" conflicting with local variable in external.c
|
|
|
|
|
|
Symptom: base64_SUITE:roundtrip crashes with hipe compiled stdlib.
Problem: HIPE_WRAPPER_BIF_DISABLE_GC pushed a "trap frame", but the frame
was only popped if the call was recursive.
Solution: Only reserve "trap frame" if BIF call is recursive.
|
|
The trap_frame got pushed twice, first by the wrapper then by
hipe_push_beam_trap_frame as it was looking at F_DISABLE_GC.

* sverk/bin-alloc-refactor:
erts: Fix gdb command etp-carrier-blocks for 32-bit
erts: Refactor binary allocation interface to also initialize Binary
|
|
except the reference counter 'refc', as different callers
have different strategies regarding the lifetime of the binary.
|
|
Use same mechanism as term_to_binary to yield
while encoding large messages for distributed send.
|
|
Position-independent code is mandatory on OS X. We use r11 as an intermediate
register to fill BIF_P->hipe.bif_callee. This fixes the following error when
doing `make debug FLAVOR=smp`:
clang -cc1as: fatal error: error in backend: 32-bit absolute addressing is not supported in 64-bit mode
|
|
|
|
Replace the 'erlang:binary_to_term/1' and 'erlang:binary_to_term/2'
Erlang wrappers taking care of failure after yield with management
of this in the hidden yield BIF.

Make hipe to beam calls use export entry.
Makes it a lot easier to handle global tracing correctly
(breakpoints in export entry). A beam function should now be traced
correctly regardless how it is called.
This will also fix a SEGV crash when a hipe stub is made pointing into
a traced export entry and tracing is then stopped which clears the export
entry causing the hipe stub to execute beam instruction NULL.
This commit assumes that hipe code never calls local beam functions, which
should be the case nowadays as we only hipe compile entire modules.
|
|
by combining hipe.ncallee and hipe.closure in a union
as the comment indicate should be possible.

A call in llvm_fix_pinned_regs/0 is inserted in the beginning of LLVM unwind
blocks (i.e. code executed when an LLVM 'invoke' call triggers an exception)
in order to get the BP and SP registers right. This is needed because LLVM
exception handling doesn't provide the return value (that also contains the
values for these registers, as defined in the HiPE Calling Convention for
LLVM) on the 'landingpad's.

This commit is a preparation for eliminating a race condition
loading the native code for modules whose BEAM code has already
been loaded. Here we introduce two new BIFs so that looking up
a fun entry is separate from setting the native address in the
fun entry.

A process requesting a system task to be executed in the context of
another process will be notified by a message when the task has
executed. This message will be on the form:
{RequestType, RequestId, Pid, Result}.
A process requesting a system task to be executed can set priority
on the system task. The requester typically set the same priority
on the task as its own process priority, and by this avoiding
priority inversion. A request for execution of a system task is
made by calling the statically linked in NIF
erts_internal:request_system_task(Pid, Prio, Request). This is an
undocumented ERTS internal function that should remain so. It
should *only* be called from BIF implementations.
Currently defined system tasks are:
* garbage_collect
* check_process_code
Further system tasks can and will be implemented in the future.
The erlang:garbage_collect/[1,2] and erlang:check_process_code/[2,3]
BIFs are now implemented using system tasks. Both the
'garbage_collect' and the 'check_process_code' operations perform
or may perform garbage_collections. By doing these via the
system task functionality all garbage collect operations in the
system will be performed solely in the context of the process
being garbage collected. This makes it possible to later implement
functionality for disabling garbage collection of a process over
context switches.
Newly introduced BIFs:
* erlang:garbage_collect/2 - The new second argument is an option
list. Introduced option:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous garbage collect requests.
* erlang:check_process_code/3 - The new third argument is an
option list. Introduced options:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous check process code requests.
* {allow_gc, boolean()} - making it possible to issue requests
that aren't allowed to garbage collect (operation will abort
if gc should be needed).
These options have been introduced as a preparation for
parallelization of check_process_code operations when the
code_server is about to purge a module.

* ks/hipe_bif-remove_refs_from/OTP-10851:
Fixed test to allow for lists:foreach/2 call
Change the return value of hipe_bifs:remove_refs_from/1
|
|
|
|
In order to avoid an ummatched return warning in erts and make the code
more sane, the return value of the bif was changed from [] to 'ok'.
(Probably more hipe_bifs need such changes but they will have to wait.)
While at it, the code of various functions in hipe_unified_loader was
shortened by using lists:foreach/1 instead of explicit recursion.

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

Changes in "struct process" has made native code more depenedent on if the
executing emulator is smp enabled or not.
This commit will make a default built hipe compiler (without -xcomp)
to ask the running emulator about process struct offsets. This will
make native code work (again) as long as the same emulator is used for
compilation as well as execution of the native code.
