2017-11-13Refuse to load "literals" that can be confused with registersBjörn Gustavsson
The 's' operand overloads the tags for pids and ports to represent X and Y registers, respectively. At load time, refuse to load the module if the "literal" term is not a pid or port, as it would be interpreted as a register. This does not happen with normally compiled code, but it can happen if the compiler (or beam_asm) is abused like in the following example: make_bad() -> Pid = self(), Forms = [{attribute, 0, module, bad_s_operand}, {attribute, 0, export, [{test, 0}]}, {function, 0, test, 0, [{clause, 0, [], [], [{call,0,{atom,0,tuple_size},[{integer, 0, Pid}]}]}]}], {ok, Module, Bin} = compile:forms(Forms, [no_copt,no_postopt,report_errors]), code:load_binary(Module, "bad_s_operand.erl", Bin). With this commit applied, the following message will be printed when make_bad() is run: =ERROR REPORT==== 10-Nov-2017::14:47:59 === Loading of bad_s_operand.erl failed: badfile =ERROR REPORT==== 10-Nov-2017::14:47:59 === beam/beam_load.c(2396): Error loading function bad_s_operand:test/0: op bif1_body: bsd: the term '<0.60.0>' would be confused with a register
2017-11-07Strengthen tests of definition of specific instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Don't allow defining an specific operation more than once with the exact same operands. Don't allow a specific operation to be defined with different arities.
2017-11-06Remove redundant built-in macro $IS_PACKED()Björn Gustavsson
It can easily be implemented as $OPERAND_POSITION($Operand) == 0.
2017-11-06Warn when $REFRESH_GEN_DEST() is not used after a GCBjörn Gustavsson
It is easy to to forget to use $REFRESH_GEN_DEST() in an instruction that has a general destionation ('d'). Add a heuristic that should catch most if not all such problems.
2017-11-06Consistently use the "erts_gc_" prefix for functions that do GCBjörn Gustavsson
In beam_emu, use "erts_gc_" for any function that does garbage collection, as preparation for adding more sanity checks.
2017-11-06Add the built-in macro $IF() to handle conditionalsBjörn Gustavsson
Add an $IF() macro to conditionally expand macros. Use it like this: $IF(Expression, IfTrue, IfFalse) Expression is a Perl expression that can be evaulated at macro expansion time. If the expression evaluates to 0, the result will be IfFalse, otherwise IfTrue.
2017-11-06Rename the built-in macro ARG_SIZE() to OPERAND_SIZE()Björn Gustavsson
Although the terminology "arguments" is used in the comments for beam_makeops, the documentation in beam_makeops.md consistenly use the term "operand". Since the name of the macro is user-facing, it should be consistent with the documentation.
2017-11-06Clean up definition of built-in macrosBjörn Gustavsson
Make it easier to define new macros.
2017-11-01beam_makeops: Strengthen the checking of transformationsBjörn Gustavsson
Any type that is a lower-case letter is allowed in a transformation, even though some of them don't make sense, could cause compilation errors when building the emulator, or crash at runtime. For example, the type 'z' is emitted by the compiler, but eaten by the loader before the transform engine can see it. Another example is the 'q' type, which would crash the emulator if it was used on the right side of a transformation rule. In beam_makeops, define explicitly which types that are allowed in patterns (on the left side) and in construction (on the right side). Using that information, check the transformation rules thoroughly and reject operands that don't make sense. While we are it, also correct some misleading comments.

2017-10-30erl_process_dump: Don't assume that literals can be foundBjörn Gustavsson
Native code does not register its literals in the code header for the loaded code. Therefore, a literal created by native code can not be found by mark_literal(). Ignore literals that can't be found instead of crashing (the crasdump_viewer will report such literals as incomplete heap data, but will not crash).

2017-10-27Correct erlang:is_builtin/3 for apply/2 and yield/0Björn Gustavsson
erlang:is_builtin(erlang, M, F) returns false for apply/2 and yield/0. The documentation for erlang:is_builtin/3 says that it returns true for BIFs that are implemented in C. apply/2 and yield/0 are implemented in C (as BEAM instructions), and therefore the correct return value is true. Also see a similar argument that was made for apply/3 in the past: http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-bugs/2015-October/005101.html https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-500

2017-10-23erts: Fix so that bind correct schedulersLukas Larsson
When the cpu ids and scheduler ids don't match, the end schedulers could end up not being bound when they should be. example: > taskset -c 1-3 erl +S 4 +sbts > erlang:system_info(scheduler_bindings). {1,2,3,unbound} This fix makes it so that all cores are used to bind schedulers.

2017-10-21Optimize instructions for comparing a register with a literalBjörn Gustavsson
We can avoid calling eq() from the is_eq_exact_literal/3 and is_ne_exact_literal/3 instructions if the source operand is an immediate (since a literal is either a boxed or a list, never an immediate).

2017-10-18Dump literals separately to avoid incomplete heap dataBjörn Gustavsson
When a literal was used from several processes, the literal would be dumped in only one of the processes. The other processes that referenced the literals would have incomplete heap data.
2017-10-18Implement dumping of maps in crash dumpsBjörn Gustavsson
Maps would be dumped as the atom 'undefined', which is not very informative.
2017-10-18Buffer writing of crash dumpsBjörn Gustavsson
Writing of crash dumps were done using unbuffered IO. This is slow since many small writes are done. Use a FILE* with an allocated buffer to obtain buffered IO. I wrote a small test program that created 50000 binaries of 200 bytes each and then created a crash dump. The crash dumping was an order of magnitude faster with buffered IO than without.
