2011-12-07Add code_SUITE:versions/1Björn Gustavsson
We did not have test case that ensures that the loader refuses to load a module if there already exists old code for the module.
2011-11-17Allow refc binaries in literal poolsBjörn Gustavsson
To simplify the implementation of literal pools (constant pools) for the R12 release, a shortcut was taken regarding binaries -- all binaries would be stored as heap binaries regardless of size. To allow a module containing literals to be unloaded, literal terms are copied when sent to another process. That means that huge literal binaries will also be copied if they are sent to another process, which could be surprising. Another problem is that the arity field in the header for the heap object may not be wide enough to handle big binaries. Therefore, bite the bullet and allow refc binaries to be stored in literal pools. In short, the following need to be changed: * Each loaded module needs a MSO list, linking all refc binaries in the literal pool. * When check_process_code/2 copies literals to a process heap, it must link each referenced binary into the MSO list for the process and increment the reference counter for the binary. * purge_module/1 must decrement the reference counter for each refc binary in the literal pool.

2011-11-07beam_asm: Strenghten the calculation of Uniq for funsBjörn Gustavsson
Funs are identified by a triple, <Module,Uniq,Index>, where Module is the module name, Uniq is a 27 bit hash value of some intermediate representation of the code for the fun, and index is a small integer. When a fun is loaded, the triple for the fun will be compared to previously loaded funs. If all elements in the triple in the newly loaded fun are the same, the newly loaded fun will replace the previous fun. The idea is that if Uniq are the same, the code for the fun is also the same. The problem is that Uniq is only based on the intermediate representation of the fun itself. If the fun calls local functions in the same module, Uniq may remain the same even if the behavior of the fun has been changed. See http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-bugs/2007-June/000368.htlm for an example. As a long-term plan to fix this problem, the NewIndex and NewUniq fields was added to each fun in the R8 release (where NewUniq is the MD5 of the BEAM code for the module). Unfortunately, it turns out that the compiler does not assign unique value to NewIndex (if it isn't tested, it doesn't work), so we cannot use the <Module,NewUniq,NewIndex> triple as identification. It would be possible to use <Module,NewUniq,Index>, but that seems ugly. Therefore, fix the problem by making Uniq more unique by taking 27 bits from the MD5 for the BEAM code. That only requires a change to the compiler. Also update a test case for cover, which now fails because of the stronger Uniq calculation. (The comment in test case about why the Pid2 process survived is not correct.)
2011-11-07EEP-23: Allow variables in fun M:F/ABjörn Gustavsson
Currently, the external fun syntax "fun M:F/A" only supports literals. That is, "fun lists:reverse/1" is allowed but not "fun M:F/A". In many real-life situations, some or all of M, F, A are not known until run-time, and one is forced to either use the undocumented erlang:make_fun/3 BIF or to use a "tuple fun" (which is deprecated). EEP-23 suggests that the parser (erl_parse) should immediately transform "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)". We have not followed that approach in this implementation, because we want the abstract code to mirror the source code as closely as possible, and we also consider erlang:make_fun/3 to be an implementation detail that we might want to remove in the future. Instead, we will change the abstract format for "fun M:F/A" (in a way that is not backwards compatible), and while we are at it, we will move the translation from "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)" from sys_pre_expand down to the v3_core pass. We will also update the debugger and xref to use the new format. We did consider making the abstract format backward compatible if no variables were used in the fun, but decided against it. Keeping it backward compatible would mean that there would be different abstract formats for the no-variable and variable case, and tools would have to handle both formats, probably forever.

2011-08-25Add erlang:check_old_code/1Björn Gustavsson
Add erlang:check_old_code/1 to quickly check whether a module has old code. If there is no old code, there is no need to call erlang:check_process_code/2 for all processes, which will save some time if there are many processes.
