2015-02-19remove perfctr supportMikael Pettersson
Perfctr is a Linux kernel extension that allows programmatic access to the performance monitoring counters found in most current CPUs. However, development of perfctr ceased after 2010, and it cannot be used with Linux kernels newer than 2.6.32. Therefore the perfctr support code in the Erlang VM is effectively dead code, so this patch removes it.

2015-02-03trace_bif_SUITE: Ensure that a call to time/0 is not removedBjörn Gustavsson
Assigning the result of a BIF call to a variable used to be sufficient to prevent the call from being optimized away. With the more aggressive optimization that will be introduced in a future commit it will not be sufficient. Matching the return value will prevent the compiler from doing the optimization.

2015-01-29erts: Fix getifaddrs realloc ptr mismatchBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
When a buffer was exhausted and subsequently a realloc, we could get an invalid pointer. For this to occur we would need to have a realloc to lower adresses. The symptom would be garbage returned from erlang:port_control(Port, 25, []) (prim_inet:getifaddrs(Port) resulting in a badarg) or a segmentation fault.
2015-01-27erts: Use closefrom() if available when closing fdsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
closefrom() was only used in the vfork() case before, now also used in the fork() case.
2015-01-27erts: Don't close all fds twice in child_setupBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
The commit c2b4eab25c907f453a394d382c04cd04e6c06b49 introduced an error in which child_setup erroneously tried to close all file descriptors twice.
2015-01-26hipe: improve error handling at code allocation failureMikael Pettersson
2015-01-26hipe: remove two obsolete BIFsMikael Pettersson
The hipe_bifs:make_native_stub/2 and hipe_bifs:get_emu_address/1 BIFs were originally used by hipe_unified_loader.erl, but the code been obsolete and disabled for ages. Remove the BIFs and all references to them. In hipe_unified_loader.erl, remove the no-op emu_make_stubs/1 function.
2015-01-26hipe: remove HIPE_ALLOC_CODE macroMikael Pettersson
The HIPE_ALLOC_CODE macro in the HiPE runtime was introduced ages ago to allow x86 and amd64 to switch from erts_alloc() to an mmap() implementation with proper flag setting. Nowadays the macro is identical on all platforms, and serves no purpose. Delete the macro, move the hipe_alloc_code() prototype to hipe_arch.h, and simplify hipe_bifs_enter_code_2().

2015-01-13erts: Extend driver interface with emergency_closeBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
The intention of this callback is to close all sockets associated to a port. It is closed only on crashdumps. This will currently only be used for the epmd port.
2015-01-11hipe: fix ARM/Thumb interworkingMikael Pettersson
HiPE on ARM is currently severely broken if the rest of the VM is compiled to run in Thumb mode -- calling native code quickly ends up executing code in the wrong mode and crashing the VM. This is a problem on e.g. Ubuntu which configures its system GCC to generate Thumb by default. It can also be triggered by overriding CC or CFLAGS when compiling the VM. There were three issues that caused the breakage: 1. Assembly-coded functions in hipe_arm_glue.S weren't explicitly tagged as functions, preventing the linker from generating the correct mode-switching call instructions for calls from C to these functions. Fixed by tagging those symbols as functions. 2. A few BIF wrappers were so simple that they performed tailcalls to the C BIFs. This fails to switch mode when C is in Thumb. Fixed by performing ordinary recursive calls when C is in Thumb. 3. The assembly-coded source files weren't explicitly tagged as ARM. Tested with the HiPE testsuite on ARMv7, with the VM built as ARM and as Thumb. Also manually inspected the object code for the beam executable and checked that call sites from C to HiPE's ARM runtime code and vice versa used the correct mode-switching instructions.

This commit improves crash dumps in several ways: * Suspends schedulers to get a current snapshot * Dumps information about scheduler * Dumps stack trace of current running process (including Garbing processes)

Also removed old legacy fallback that is no longer used
2014-12-19erts: Introduce thread suspend functionsLukas Larsson
These functions allow any thread to suspend any other thread immediately and then resume all threads. This is useful when doing a crash dump in order to get a more accurate picture of what state the system is in.
