2018-01-19Optimize matching of an 'utf8' segment in the binary syntaxBjörn Gustavsson
Matching out an 8-bit integer is faster than matching out an utf8-encoded code point, even if the value of the code point is less than 128. The reason is that matching out an 8-bit integer is specially optimized to avoid a function call. Do a similar optimization for matching out an utf8 segment.

2018-01-03Fail if ':' is passed to binary_to_integer/2Frank Hunleth
Before: 1> binary_to_integer(<<":">>, 16). 3 After: 1> binary_to_integer(<<":">>, 16). ** exception error: bad argument in function binary_to_integer/2 called as binary_to_integer(<<":">>,16) Prior to this change, both list_to_integer/2 and binary_to_integer/2 would convert strings with values between ASCII '9' up to '0'+base for base > 10. For example, when converting in base 16, you could pass ':', ';', '<', '=', '>', and '?' without getting an exception. This was due to a missing check in c2int_is_invalid_char(). This change adds the missing check and a regression test for passing ':'. It also simplifies the code and tightens up an out-of-bounds check to make it off-by-one rather than off-by-two.

2018-01-03Disallow NULs in filename-encoded stringsJohn Högberg
Previously we accepted trailing NULs, which was backwards compatible as such usage never resulted in misbehavior in the first place. The downside is that it prevented erts_native_filename_need from returning an accurate number of *actual characters*, needlessly complicating encoding-agnostic code like erts_osenv.
2018-01-03Alter erl_ddll:load dependency search path on WindowsJohn Högberg
The standard search order does not include the directory that the loaded DLL resides in, requiring dirty $PATH hacks to get things working, which is not an option now that os:putenv/2 is divorced from the OS environment.
2018-01-03Replace the libc environment with a thread-safe emulationJohn Högberg
putenv(3) and friends aren't thread-safe regardless of how you slice it; a global lock around all environment operations (like before) keeps things safe as far as our own operations go, but we have absolutely no control over what libc or a library dragged in by a driver/NIF does -- they're free to call getenv(3) or putenv(3) without honoring our lock. This commit solves this by setting up an "emulated" environment which can't be touched without going through our interfaces. Third-party libraries can still shoot themselves in the foot but benign uses of os:putenv/2 will no longer risk crashing the emulator.

2017-12-06"Fix" tracing of dirty NIFs on debug buildsJohn Högberg
When a dirty NIF is executed a "schedule in" trace event is generated, which may in turn result in a generic system task being created, causing the process to be scheduled out as it can't run dirty with pending tasks. This is usually fine since said system task is seldom created, but ERTS_FORCE_ENIF_SEND_DELAY was de-facto always on for debug builds, causing the process to bounce between dirty and normal schedulers forever. This commit is not a complete fix and it can go off the rails even on normal builds; if there's a lot of dirty jobs lined up and the receiver's msgq lock happens to be busy at the wrong time, the additional trace messages generated through this will hammer the lock and keep everything bouncing.
2017-12-06Add translation for ERROR_INVALID_NAMEJohn Högberg
Most functions return this if they're given an invalid path, eg. if they contain "<" or ">". ENOENT may seem like a strange translation, but that's what open(2) returns when fed garbage, so we'll roll with that.

2017-11-30Don't assume efile driver is presentJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Remove all mention of efile_drv from DTrace docsJohn Högberg
efile_drv is gone and so is the need for file-specific DTrace. The new implementation works fine with the normal tracing mechanism so there's nothing preventing anyone from making an erl_tracer nif that forward these events to DTrace.

2017-11-30Tighten timings in dirty_*if_SUITE:dirty_scheduler_exitJohn Högberg
There doesn't seem to be any science behind the long delays, and the (newly introduced) dry run forces us to eat them twice, so they've been shortened to more reasonable values.
2017-11-30Fix dirty_*if_SUITE after file rewriteJohn Högberg
Code loading is done through dirty IO now, causing the dirty_scheduler_exit tests to fail as they block their own progress by invoking erts_debug:dirty_io(wait, _); the spawned processes will exit normally before we have a chance to kill them. To get around this, we perform a dry run to ensure that all required code is loaded. It isn't particularly pretty (or fast) but it saves us the hassle of maintaining a module list (cf. embedded mode).
2017-11-30Remove efile_SUITE:async_distJohn Högberg
This test is irrelevant as the new implementation doesn't use async threads.
2017-11-30Reimplement efile_drv as a dirty NIFJohn Högberg
This improves the latency of file operations as dirty schedulers are a bit more eager to run jobs than async threads, and use a single global queue rather than per-thread queues, eliminating the risk of a job stalling behind a long-running job on the same thread while other async threads sit idle. There's no such thing as a free lunch though; the lowered latency comes at the cost of increased busy-waiting which may have an adverse effect on some applications. This behavior can be tweaked with the +sbwt flag, but unfortunately it affects all types of schedulers and not just dirty ones. We plan to add type-specific flags at a later stage. sendfile has been moved to inet_drv to lessen the effect of a nasty race; the cooperation between inet_drv and efile has never been airtight and the socket dying at the wrong time (Regardless of reason) could result in fd aliasing. Moving it to the inet driver makes it impossible to trigger this by closing the socket in the middle of a sendfile operation, while still allowing it to be aborted -- something that can't be done if it stays in the file driver. The race still occurs if the controlling process dies in the short window between dispatching the sendfile operation and the dup(2) call in the driver, but it's much less likely to happen now. A proper fix is in the works. -- Notable functional differences: * The use_threads option for file:sendfile/5 no longer has any effect. * The file-specific DTrace probes have been removed. The same effect can be achieved with normal tracing together with the nif__entry/nif__return probes to track scheduling. -- OTP-14256
