All uses of the old deprecated atomic API in the runtime system
have been replaced with the use of the new atomic API. In a lot of
places this change imply a relaxation of memory barriers used.

|
|
Also corrected compressed files on Windows

* sverker/unsafe_CancelIoEx/OTP-8937:
Remove use of unreliable CancelIoEx on Windows.
|
|
CancelIoEx has been seen to cause problems with some drivers.
Also improve fallback solution to reuse existing handle-closer-threads.

* rickard/cpu-info/OTP-8765:
Initialize environment functionality after thread lib
Fix faulty assertions
Implement automatic detection of CPU topology on Windows
Make it possible to reread and update detected CPU information
|
|
An assertion failed due to the thread library not being
initialized when initializing an rwmutex. This was however
harmless.

elib_malloc is an alternate memory allocator that
is no longer possible to build.
|
|
A long time ago, the Erlang run-time system could be
build with pre-ANSI/ISO-C (K&R) C compilers, but that is
no longer possible. Remove the remaining uses of the
compatibility macros that made it possible that possible.

Large parts of the ethread library have been rewritten. The
ethread library is an Erlang runtime system internal, portable
thread library used by the runtime system itself.
Most notable improvement is a reader optimized rwlock
implementation which dramatically improve the performance of
read-lock/read-unlock operations on multi processor systems by
avoiding ping-ponging of the rwlock cache lines. The reader
optimized rwlock implementation is used by miscellaneous
rwlocks in the runtime system that are known to be read-locked
frequently, and can be enabled on ETS tables by passing the
`{read_concurrency, true}' option upon table creation. See the
documentation of `ets:new/2' for more information.
The ethread library can now also use the libatomic_ops library
for atomic memory accesses. This makes it possible for the
Erlang runtime system to utilize optimized atomic operations
on more platforms than before. Use the
`--with-libatomic_ops=PATH' configure command line argument
when specifying where the libatomic_ops installation is
located. The libatomic_ops library can be downloaded from:
http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/
The changed API of the ethread library has also caused
modifications in the Erlang runtime system. Preparations for
the to come "delayed deallocation" feature has also been done
since it depends on the ethread library.
Note: When building for x86, the ethread library will now use
instructions that first appeared on the pentium 4 processor. If
you want the runtime system to be compatible with older
processors (back to 486) you need to pass the
`--enable-ethread-pre-pentium4-compatibility' configure command
line argument when configuring the system.

The experimental Standalone Erlang (SAE) support based on
Joe Armstrong's work has long been broken. Remove the remaining
code and Makefile rules.

A misbehaving port program that does not read all data written to the port
may deadlock the scheduler thread when it calls port_close. The chosen solution
was to use the new function CancelIoEx if it exist (Vista) otherwise let the
spawn driver wait for a short while (10ms) and then to spawn a thread that will
wait for the port program to exit.

In the erts/emulator/beam sources
#ifdef SOME_OPERATING_SYSTEM
should be avoided. Instead, call a function implemented in
sys/OPERATING_SYSTEM/sys.c.
