2017-06-03Lengthen too short timetrapsBjörn Gustavsson
c062dfc485a added timetraps to test suites that had no timetraps. Some of added timetraps are only 5 or 10 seconds, which is can be too short time on some slow computers. Change those times to one or two minutes.
2017-06-03Fix process_SUITE:low_prio/1Björn Gustavsson
It is expected that low-priority processes should be allowed to run about 1/8 of the time of normal-priority processes. The proportion calculated was usually considerably lower than 1/8. It seems that the main reason is the punishement in reductions when sending to a process that alreday has many messages in the message queue. I have verified that by running the emulator with the +snsp to turn off the send punishment. To avoid that punishment, let the server process run at high priority so that it can keep its message queue short. It seems that the proportion is now very close to 1/8. Therefore, we can tighten the margins for the proportion.

2017-05-31Make sure that asynchronous replies are not lostBjörn Gustavsson
(First attempt to fix in 23f132d9ab776a.) If an synchronous GC was requested by calling: erlang:garbage_collect(Pid, [{async,Ref}]) the reply message could in certain circumstances be lost. The problem is that cleanup_sys_tasks() is never called if there are dirty tasks, but no other active system tasks. Also shorten the long waiting times in the test case binary_SUITE:trapping/1 to make it much more likely that the GC have not already finished when the process is killed.

The garbage_collect message could be received while waiting for trace messages, causing the test to crash erroneously.

The fix avoids registering the main thread as an emulator thread on MacOSX. This since WX steals the main thread for its own usage on MacOSX, and use the thread as an ordinary driver thread.

2017-05-29Make sure that asynchronous replies are not lostBjörn Gustavsson
If an synchronous GC was requested by calling: erlang:garbage_collect(Pid, [{async,Ref}]) the reply message could in certain circumstances be lost. The problem is in cleanup_sys_tasks() in erl_process.c. If there were at least one dirty task, only the first dirty task would be cleaned up. All other systems tasks would not be cleaned up (that is, no replies would be sent to other processes waiting for the tasks to finish).

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.

2017-05-19erts: Add undocumented option to do default SIGTERMLukas Larsson
This is a stopgap measure before the release of OTP-20 where that makes it possible for the user to make the vm not do anything with SIGTERM and instead rely on the OS default. To enable this behaviour the user should set the environment variable ERL_ZZ_SIGTERM_KILL="true".

Inroduce syntactic sugar so that we can write: get_list xy xy xy instead of: get_list x x x get_list x x y get_list x y x get_list x y y get_list y x x get_list y x y get_list y y x get_list y y y
2017-05-18Modernize subroutine calls by removing '&'Björn Gustavsson
In Perl 5, '&' on direct subroutine calls are optional.
2017-05-18Eliminate the -gen_dest macro flagBjörn Gustavsson
Instructions that take a 'd' argument needs a -gen_dest flag in their macros. For example: %macro:put_list PutList -pack -gen_dest put_list s s d -gen_dest was needed when x(0) was stored in a register, since it is not possible to take the address of a register. Now that x(0) is stored in memory and we can take the address, we can eliminate gen_dest.
