2016-06-20erts: Fix spawn driver when env size is above pipe capacitySverker Eriksson
Symptom: open_port() succeeds, port program never starts but instead seem to terminate with exit_status 150 (EINVAL+128). When: If the command payload buffer (including the entire environment) for the port program is between 1 to 4 bytes above the pipe capacity, which is 65536 bytes on newer Linux, but can be as low as 4096 on older 32-bit Linux. Since: OTP-19.0-rc1.

* mikpe/fp-exceptions-cleanups/PR-1019/OTP-13531: clean up FP exception code in sys_float.c
2016-04-26matherr() must not fake an FP exceptionMikael Pettersson
When FP exceptions are used, matherr() forces a fake FP exception, which is interpreted as an error by the checking code after a math routine call. This is wrong for several reasons: - it's not necessary for error checking: when FP exceptions aren't used, matherr() is a stub and no information is derived from it being called - it's not necessary for FPU maintenance: the FPU only needs to be reprogrammed after an actual FP exception - it causes false negatives: matherr() may be called even though Erlang doesn't consider the case to be an error (exp() and pow() underflows on Solaris for instance); with FP exceptions enabled they are incorrectly considered errors The fix is to remove all FP exception related code from matherr().
2016-04-17clean up FP exception code in sys_float.cMikael Pettersson
This performs a number of cleanups in the FP exception code: - inline the body of unmask_fpe_conditional() in its only caller, then delete the duplicated and identical definitions of it - start the big processor-specific block with a comment describing the two functions that must be defined, then delete redundant comments at all the mask_*() functions - add a comment before fpe_sig_action() explaining exactly what processor-specific action is required of it - flatten #ifdef nesting in fpe_sig_action() - move common code in the x86 unmask_fpe() and erts_restore_fpu() function into a subroutine - minor tweaks: drop a redundant L suffix on a 0, add a comment after an #else, bump the size of a debug buffer, There should be no change in behaviour from these changes.

2016-03-16Take out (parts of) broken fp exception support for MacOS XBjörn Gustavsson
Floating-point exception support on MacOS X has never been especially reliable, and has therefore been disabled by default for a long time. The fpe support is now broken. Therefore, take out the unnecessary test for modern mcontext in configure (whatever that means) and the associated code in sys_float.c. Add #error directives to sys_float.c to make it clear that fpe is not supported. It seems to risky to mess with the mess of #ifdef's, so we will not attempt to remove all fpe support code for MacOS X.

2016-02-24erts: Change erl_exit into erts_exitSverker Eriksson
This is mostly a pure refactoring. Except for the buggy cases when calling erlang:halt() with a positive integer in the range -(INT_MIN+2) to -INT_MIN that got confused with ERTS_ABORT_EXIT, ERTS_DUMP_EXIT and ERTS_INTR_EXIT. Outcome OLD erl_exit(n, ) NEW erts_exit(n, ) ------- ------------------- ------------------------------------------- exit(Status) n = -Status <= 0 n = Status >= 0 crashdump+abort n > 0, ignore n n = ERTS_ERROR_EXIT < 0 The outcome of the old ERTS_ABORT_EXIT, ERTS_INTR_EXIT and ERTS_DUMP_EXIT are the same as before (even though their values have changed).

This commit makes sure to setup the suspend handler to matter what +B option is given at the command line.

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: Never abort in the forked childLukas Larsson
We always want the error to propagate up to the application when a child cannot be created.
2015-12-15erts: Mend ASSERT makro for erl_child_setupSverker Eriksson
when called by hash.c for example. We use ASSERT from sys.h but erl_child_setup implements its own erl_assert_error() as it doesn't link with sys.o.

2015-12-15erts: Add forker StartAck for port start flowcontrolLukas Larsson
An acknowledgement of the Start command has to be managed as we have to make sure that packages are not dropped and also that the close calls do not happen too early.
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: Fix uds socket handling for os xLukas Larsson
OS X is very strict in what it requires of you and also gives strange error codes for some errors. In this commit we remap EMSGSIZE to EMFILE and also precisely tune the amount of data we send on the socket so that we can recv only that data. If we try to recv more, recvmsg fails with EPIPE if the remote end has been closed.

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

2015-08-18Handle ERRNO_BLOCK in fd_driver async functionsSteve Vinoski
Several users on erlang-questions have reported problems with recent releases where output to standard_error causes standard_error_sup to die from receiving an unexpected eagain error. In the fd_driver, change the fd_async() function to handle EINTR, and change fd_ready_async() to handle ERRNO_BLOCK. Add a new test to standard_error_SUITE to generate output to standard_error and ensure that standard_error_sup does not die. Thanks to Kota Uenishi for contributing the test case.

2015-05-06erts: Increase buffer in erts_fp_check_init_errorMikael Pettersson
The current size is too small for 64-bit machines, causing messages to be truncated and making debugging more difficult.
2015-04-28erl_child_setup.c: fix Android breakageMikael Pettersson
The Android support in erl_child_setup.c is broken: 1. The close fd loop compares an fd (integer i) with the address of the function __system_properties_fd rather than the value of calling that function. 2. This function is locally defined, but its name starts with two underscores which is reserved for the implementation. 3. This function is not used outside of this file, so should be static. 4. This function performs a fair amount of work (calls getenv and atoi), which would be repeated for each and every fd in the [from,to] range. 5. This function contains an unsed local variable 's'. Fixed by dropping the __ prefix, making the function static, dropping the unused local variable, and rewriting the close fd loop to call the function at most once.
