2019-08-22Optimize continuation pointer managementBjörn Gustavsson
The BEAM instructions for calling a function don't save the continuation pointer (return address) on the stack, but to a special BEAM register called CP. It is the responsibility of the called function to save CP to the stack frame before calling other functions. In the earlier implementations of BEAM on Sparc, CP was located in a CPU register. That meant that the continuation pointer was never written to memory when calling simple functions that didn't call other functions at all or ended in a tail-call to another function. The modern BEAM no longer keeps CP in CPU register. Instead, it is kept in the `process` struct (in `p->cp`). That means the continuation pointer must be written to the memory on every call, and if the called function will call other functions, it will must read the continuation pointer from `p->cp` and store it on the stack. This commit eliminates the concept of the CP register and modifies the call instructions to directly store the continuation pointer on the stack. That makes allocation and trimming of stack frames slightly faster. A more important benefit is simplification of code that handles continuation pointers. Because all continuation pointers are now stored on the stack, the special case of handling `p->cp` disappears. Co-authored-by: John Högberg <[email protected]>

The current carrier list was read when the allocator wasn't locked, crashing the emulator if a block scan raced with a carrier allocation.

2019-08-09erts: Create heap binaries in bs_get_binary2John Högberg
ErlSubBin is a large struct that often dwarfs the region of memory it points at, and it's common for them to refer to a ProcBin which must be kept around as long as the SubBin lives, using up even more heap space and keeping the referenced binary alive regardless of how small the sub-binary is.
2019-08-09erts: Remove size check in bs_start_matchJohn Högberg
The size check is redundant now that all binaries are guaranteed to be small enough that their size in bits fits into a word.
2019-08-09erts: Disallow binaries whose size in bits exceeds UWORD_MAXJohn Högberg
These have never worked in binary matching (including sub-binaries extracted from them) so it's hard to justify their existence. They also make a future migration of binary sizes from bytes to bits problematic, so we may as well change it ahead of time. This is potentially incompatible on 32-bit platforms where a NIF or driver could allocate 512MB+ binaries, but allocations that large should be expected to fail anyway.

2019-08-06erts_debug: Turn off unsafe optimizations in test caseJohn Högberg
The test case alters the return value of a function that the compiler expects will never return, resulting in undefined behavior. Note that the debugger (which may change variables/return values) is unaffected since the affected module is purged and "replaced" with an interpreted variant.

2019-07-24[esock] Renaming internal functions to avoid name clashesMicael Karlberg
The naming "convention" for "top" functions of the esock nif module was: The API functions where called nif_<foo> This function did basic checks and arg extraction and then called the a function called n<foo>, which was the one doing the actual work. Unfortunately, och some platforms (AIX) these second names, n<foo>, clashed with system functions. So, in order to avoid this, the naming of second function has been changed to esock_<foo>. OTP-15955

2019-07-18Fix io:columns() and io:rows() are not working from escripts bugKjell Winblad
The functions io:columns() and io:rows() only worked correctly inside interactive erlang shells before this fix. These functions returned {error,enotsup} before this fix even if stdout and stdin were connected to a terminal when they were invoked from an escript or a program started with e.g., `erl -noshell`. This commit fixes issue ERL-717.
