2019-04-10Decentralized counters for ETS ordered_set with write_concurrencyKjell Winblad
Previously, all ETS tables used centralized counter variables to keep track of the number of items stored and the amount of memory consumed. These counters can cause scalability problems (especially on big NUMA systems). This commit adds an implementation of a decentralized counter and modifies the implementation of ETS so that ETS tables of type ordered_set with write_concurrency enabled use the decentralized counter. [Experiments][1] indicate that this change substantially improves the scalability of ETS ordered_set tables with write_concurrency enabled in scenarios with frequent `ets:insert/2` and `ets:delete/2` calls. The new counter is implemented in the module erts_flxctr (`erts_flxctr.h` and `erts_flxctr.c`). The module has the suffix flxctr as it contains the implementation of a flexible counter (i.e., counter instances can be configured to be either centralized or decentralized). Counters that are configured to be centralized are implemented with a single counter variable which is modified with atomic operations. Decentralized counters are spread over several cache lines (how many can be configured with the parameter `+dcg`). The scheduler threads are mapped to cache lines so that there is no single point of contention when decentralized counters are updated. The thread progress functionality of the Erlang VM is utilized to implement support for linearizable snapshots of decentralized counters. The snapshot functionality is used by the `ets:info/1` and `ets:info/2` functions. [1]: http://winsh.me/ets_catree_benchmark/flxctr_res.html

2019-04-08erts: Skip ERTS_NOINLINE on non-GCC-compatible compilersJohn Högberg
__declspec(noinline) works fine on MSVC but requires us to place the macro before a function rather than after, which in turn causes early versions of GCC to puke since they only accept __attribute__ at the end of a function declaration. Since this is a new macro that previously only saw use in beam_emu, I figured it's easiest to leave it disabled on MSVC.

Measurements show that i_minus instructions (subtraction) are frequent enough to warrant creating specialized i_minus instructions. Thanks to José Valim for doing instruction counting on Elixir code.

Fabio Coatti reported elixir build failure in https://bugs.gentoo.org/681778. The minimal reproducer looks like that (from otp git tree): $ ./configure CFLAGS='-O2 -flto' LDFLAGS='-O2 -flto=8' $ make $ ERL_TOP=$PWD \ PATH=$ERL_TOP/bin:$PATH \ \ bin/erl \ \ -noshell -eval 're:replace("a","b","c",[{return,list}]).' \ -s erlang halt {"init terminating in do_boot",{badarg,[{re,replace,["a","b","c",[{return,list}]], [{file,"re.erl"},{line,362}]}, {erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,680}]}, {init,start_it,1,[]}, {init,start_em,1,[]}, {init,do_boot,3,[]}]}} init terminating in do_boot ({badarg,[{re,replace,[[_],[_],[_],[_]],[{_},{_}]}, {erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{_},{_}]},{init,start_it,1,[]},{init,start_em,1,[]},{init,do_boot,3,[]}]}) Crash dump is being written to: erl_crash.dump...done The failure happens in libpcre2 where stack overflow is mis-identified at function entry of erts_pcre_compile2() compile_regex() if (PUBL(stack_guard) != NULL && PUBL(stack_guard)()) { *errorcodeptr= ERR85; return FALSE; } The stack "overflow" detection happens in thr_wrapper() ethr_set_stacklimit__() because the stack usage code relies on the fact that ethr_set_stacklimit__() and similar functions don't get inlined into callers for stack growth measurement. Before the change inlining avoidance was achieved by putting functions into standalone translation units. LTO makes this technique inefficient. The change marks functions explicitly as __attribute__((__noinline__)) on gcc. Reported-by: Fabio Coatti Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/681778 Signed-off-by: Sergei Trofimovich <[email protected]>

2019-03-29Fix out of memory bug in the implementation of mapsKjell Winblad
This commit fixes a bug that could cause a crash or memory usage to grow until the machine ran out of memory when adding a key-value pair to a map. This could happen when inserting a new key-value pair with a key K1 containing a binary B1 into a map M having a key K2 with a binary B2 if the following conditions were met: * size(B1) >= 4294967296 * size(B2) >= 4294967296 * size(M) >= 32 * (size(B1) rem 4294967296) == (size(B2) rem 4294967296) * the first (size(B1) rem 4294967296) bytes are the same both in B1 and B2 * substituting B1 in K1 with B2 would result in a term with the same value as K2 The root cause of the bug is that the map implementation only hashed the first (X modulo 4294967296) bytes of binaries so that different binaries could get hashed to the same hash value independently of the hash seed.

2019-03-27erts: Remove unsafe bs_get_binary2 optimization from loaderJohn Högberg
A load-time optimization assumed that match contexts had no further uses when a bs_get_binary2 overwrote the match context's register, and figured it would be safe to reuse the match context's memory for the resulting binary. This is no longer safe as of OTP 22, as a match context may be reused after being passed to another function.
