2017-12-08Merge pull request #1634 from bjorng/bjorn/get_stacktrace-syntax/OTP-14692Björn Gustavsson
Add syntax in try/catch to retrieve the stacktrace directly

This introduces a way to retrieve erlang terms from NIF IO queues without having to resort to copying. OTP-14797

2017-07-17Fix testcases after removal of non-smp emulatorLukas Larsson
2017-07-11erts: Fix bug in enif_whereis_pid/portSverker Eriksson
that could cause heap corruption if whereis lookup conflicts with other register updater AND other thread sends on-heap message while main lock is released. Also improved enif_whereis from dirty nifs by passing c_p as NULL.
2017-06-09Merge pull request #1400 from tburghart/trb/erts/enif_whereisRickard Green
Add enif_whereis_pid() and enif_whereis_port() functions OTP-14453
2017-05-23erts: Reduce runtime for nif_SUITE hash testsSverker Eriksson
and base allowed hash deviation on nr of standard deviations to make it easier to fiddle with the work load.
2017-05-23erts: Improve message flush in nif_SUITESverker Eriksson
Pass number of expected messages in order to wait longer for messages (for slow machines) while not wasting test time waiting for nothing.
2017-05-23erts: Test monitor resource destructor from threadSverker Eriksson
which is scheduled on non-smp VM.
2017-05-22Add enif_whereis_...() functionsTed Burghart
#### Why do we need this new feature? There are cases when a NIF needs to send a message, using `enif_send()`, to a long-lived process with a registered name. A common use-case is logging, where asynchronous fire-and-forget messages are the norm. There can also be cases where a yielding or dirty NIF or background thread may request a callback from a service with additional information it needs to complete its operation, yielding or waiting (with suitable timeouts, etc) until its state has been updated through the NIF module's API. NIFs can only send messages to pids, and the lack of name resolution leaves a complicated dance between separate monitoring processes and the NIF as the only way to keep a NIF informed of the whereabouts of such long-lived processes. Providing a reliable, built-in facility for NIFs to resolve process (or port) names simplifies these use cases considerably. #### Risks or uncertain artifacts? Testing has not exposed any significant risk. The implementation behaves as expected on regular and dirty scheduler threads as well as non-scheduler threads. By constraining the `enif_whereis_...()` functions to their minimal scopes and using patterns consistent with related functions, the implementation, testing, and maintenance burden is low. The API and behavior of existing functions is unchanged. #### How did you solve it? While extending `enif_send()` to operate on a pid or an atom (as `erlang:send/2` does) was attractive, it would have entailed changing the type of its `to_pid` parameter and thereby breaking backward compatibility. The same consideration applies to `enif_port_command()`. That leaves a choice between 1, 2, or 3 new functions: 1. `enif_whereis()` 2. `enif_whereis_pid()` and `enif_whereis_port()` 3. All of the above. While option (1), directly mimicking the behavior of `erlang:whereis/1`, is appealing, it poses potential problems if `pid()` or `port()` are subsequently implemented as non-integral types that must be bound to an owning `ErlNifEnv` instance. Therefore, option (2) has been chosen to use `ErlNifPid`/`ErlNifPort` structures in the API to maintain proper term ownership semantics.
