2018-05-15erts: Make cpu_timestamp use per thread on LinuxLukas Larsson
If we don't use per thread the value becomes completely nonsensical on systems with more than one scheduler. We keep the old solaris behaviour in order to support the option, but it only really works when using a single scheduler.
2018-05-15erts: Fix erts_os_times warningLukas Larsson
2018-01-03Replace the libc environment with a thread-safe emulationJohn Högberg
putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before) keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3) without honoring our lock. This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.

2016-02-02erts: Refactor perf counter internal interfaceLukas Larsson
perf counter is now part of the function pointer interface and also the function returns the value instead of writing to a memory buffer.
2016-02-02erts: use correct function for perf counter on non-x86Lukas Larsson
2016-02-02erts, kernel: Add os:perf_counter functionLukas Larsson
The perf_counter is a very very cheap and high resolution timer that can be used to timestamp system events. It does not have monoticity guarantees, but should on most OS's expose a monotonous time. A special instruction has been created for this counter to further speed up fetching it. OTP-12908
2015-12-15erts: Move os_pid to port hash to child setupLukas Larsson
Had to move the hashing because of a race that can otherwise happen where a new os_pid value was inserted into the hash before the previous value had been removed. Also replaced the protocol inbetween erts and child setup to be a binary protocol. This was done in order to deal with the varying size of Eterm.
2015-12-15erts: Create forker process for spawn driverLukas Larsson
Instead of forking from the beam process, we create a separate process in which all forks are done. This has several advantages: 1) performance: * don't have to close all fd's in the world * fork only has to copy stuff from a small process * work is done in a completely seperate process * a 3x performance increase has been measured, can be made even greater (10x) if we cache the environment in child setup 2) stability * the exec is done in another process than beam, which means that if the file that we exec to is on an nfs that is not available right now we will not block a scheduler until the nfs returns. 3) simplicity * don't have to deal with SIGCHLD in the erts Unfortunately, this solution also implies some badness. 1) There will always be a seperate process running together with beam on unix. This could be confusing and undesirable. 2) We have to transfer the entire environment to child_setup for each command. OTP-13088

2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality over multiple functions in order to improve on this. The new API consists of a number of new BIFs: - erlang:convert_time_unit/3 - erlang:monotonic_time/0 - erlang:monotonic_time/1 - erlang:system_time/0 - erlang:system_time/1 - erlang:time_offset/0 - erlang:time_offset/1 - erlang:timestamp/0 - erlang:unique_integer/0 - erlang:unique_integer/1 - os:system_time/0 - os:system_time/1 and a number of extensions of existing BIFs: - erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service) - erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize) - erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source) - erlang:system_info(time_offset) - erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode) - erlang:system_info(time_correction) - erlang:system_info(start_time) See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

clang aka llvm claims to be __GNUC__ and thus we have to explicitly check that it is not used.
2014-11-24erts: Use finite instead of isfinite with gccLukas Larsson
Turns out that isfinite emits a function call and not an instruction in gcc, this makes estone float arith about 50-75% slower. finite emits the instruction so we use that instead.

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.

This is needed because a file has to be opened and operated on in the same process at all times. Using async threads guarantee this.
2013-09-25Implement platform specific aligned sys_alloc and use when supportedRickard Green
erts_sys_aligned_alloc() is currently implemented using posix_memalign if it exist, or using _aligned_malloc on Windows. If erts_sys_aligned_alloc() exist allocators will create sys_alloc carriers similar to how this was done pre-R16.

2011-11-13Optimize memory allocationRickard Green
A number of memory allocation optimizations have been implemented. Most optimizations reduce contention caused by synchronization between threads during allocation and deallocation of memory. Most notably: * Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific allocator instances has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization. * Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific pre-allocators has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization. * The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use scheduler specific instances instead of one instance. Apart from reducing contention this also ensures that memory allocators always create memory segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.
