2018-11-06Add a persistent term storageBjörn Gustavsson
Persistent terms are useful for storing Erlang terms that are never or infrequently updated. They have the following advantages: * Constant time access. A persistent term is not copied when it is looked up. The constant factor is lower than for ETS, and no locks are taken when looking up a term. * Persistent terms are not copied in garbage collections. * There is only ever one copy of a persistent term (until it is deleted). That makes them useful for storing configuration data that needs to be easily accessible by all processes. Persistent terms have the following drawbacks: * Updates are expensive. The hash table holding the keys for the persistent terms are updated whenever a persistent term is added, updated or deleted. * Updating or deleting a persistent term triggers a "global GC", which will schedule a heap scan of all processes to search the heap of all processes for the deleted term. If a process still holds a reference to the deleted term, the process will be garbage collected and the term copied to the heap of the process. This global GC can make the system less responsive for some time. Three BIFs (implemented in C in the emulator) is the entire interface to the persistent term functionality: * put(Key, Value) to store a persistent term. * get(Key) to look up a persistent term. * erase(Key) to delete a persistent term. There are also two additional BIFs to obtain information about persistent terms: * info() to return a map with information about persistent terms. * get() to return a list of a {Key,Value} tuples for all persistent terms. (The values are not copied.)

2018-10-19Honor the max heap size when copying literals after purgingBjörn Gustavsson
When a module has been purged from memory, any literals belonging to that module will be copied to all processes that hold references to them. The max heap size limit would be ignored in the garbage collection initiated when copying literals to a process. If the max heap size was exceeded, the process would typically be terminated in the following garbage collection. Since the process would be killed anyway later, kill the process before copying a literal that would make it exceed its max heap size. While at it, also fix a potential bug in `erlang:garbage_collect/0`. If it was found that the max heap sized had been exceeded while executing `erlang:garbage_collect/0`, the process would enter a kind of zombie state instead of being properly terminated.

* maint: Improve trapping in lists:reverse/2 Fix unsafe use of lists:reverse/1
2018-09-13Improve trapping in lists:reverse/2John Högberg
If the process had more free space than reductions it could run a lot longer than it was supposed to. It didn't honor the number of reductions going in either, nor did it bump reductions when returning its result or erroring out. This commit also removes this function from a work function in scheduler_SUITE as it's extremely sensitive to the number of reductions spent in the test, causing equal_and_high_with_part_time_max to fail on some machines.

2018-09-05Prevent inconsistent node listsRickard Green
If net_kernel "forgets" to abort a connection (as it currently might), the garbage collection of a distribution entry could cause node lists to enter an inconsistent state.

2018-08-03erts: Fix seq_trace to not clear token for system messagesLukas Larsson
A lot of erts internal messages used behind APIs to create non-blocking calls, e.g. port_command, would cause the seq_trace token to be cleared from the caller when it should not. This commit fixes that and adds asserts that makes sure that all messages sent have to correct token set. Fixes: ERL-602

Optimise creation of anonymous functions
2018-07-17Optimise creation of anonymous functionsMichał Muskała
This introduces a similar optimisation for normal funs to what was introduced for external funs in #1725. It is possible to allocate the fun as a literal, if it does not capture the environment (i.e. it does not close over any variables). Unfortunately it's not possible to do this in the compiler due to problems with representation of such functions in the `.beam` files. Fortunately, we can do this in the loader. Simple evaluation shows that functions that don't capture the enviornment consistute over 60% of all funs in the source code of Erlang/OTP itself. The only downside is that we lose a meningful value in the `pid` field of the fun. The goal of this field, beyond debugging, was to be able to identify the original node of a function. To be able to still do this, the functions that are created in the loader are assigned the init pid as the creator. To solve issues with staryp, initially set the `erts_init_process_id` to `ERTS_INVALID_PID` and skip the described optimisation if the value is still uninitialised.

2018-07-13Fix a rare crash when matching on literal mapsJohn Högberg
When matching on a literal map, the map is placed into the general scratch register first. This is fine in isolation, but when the key to be matched was in a Y register it would also be placed in the scratch register, overwriting the map and crashing the emulator.

2018-07-03Use fallback pollset for stdin and friends when using kqueueJohn Högberg
This is a hack to make the "noshell" option work; kqueue can poll these fds but will not report EV_EOF. This may be common to all all pipes but we have no way to tell whether an fd is a pipe or not.

2018-06-14Don't enqueue system tasks if target process is in fail_stateJohn Högberg
The fail state wasn't re-checked in the state change loop; only the FREE state was checked. In addition to that, we would leave the task in the queue when bailing out which could lead to a double-free. This commit backports active_sys_enqueue from master to make it easier to merge onwards.
