* rickard/bad-rwmtx-assert:
Fix bad assertion in rwmtx implementation
|

Windows native critical sections are now used internally in the
runtime system as mutex implementation. This since they perform
better under extreme contention than our own implementation.

The ethread atomics API now also provide double word size atomics.
Double word size atomics are implemented using native atomic
instructions on x86 (when the cmpxchg8b instruction is available)
and on x86_64 (when the cmpxchg16b instruction is available). On
other hardware where 32-bit atomics or word size atomics are
available, an optimized fallback is used; otherwise, a spinlock,
or a mutex based fallback is used.
The ethread library now performs runtime tests for presence of
hardware features, such as for example SSE2 instructions, instead
of requiring this to be determined at compile time.
There are now functions implementing each atomic operation with the
following implied memory barrier semantics: none, read, write,
acquire, release, and full. Some of the operation-barrier
combinations aren't especially useful. But instead of filtering
useful ones out, and potentially miss a useful one, we implement
them all.
A much smaller set of functionality for native atomics are required
to be implemented than before. More or less only cmpxchg and a
membar macro are required to be implemented for each atomic size.
Other functions will automatically be constructed from these. It is,
of course, often wise to implement more that this if possible from a
performance perspective.

The atomic memory operations interface used the 'long' type and assumed that
it was of the same size as 'void *'. This is true on most platforms, however,
not on Windows 64.

The ERTS internal rwlock implementation could get
into an inconsistent state. This bug was very seldom
triggered, but could be during heavy contention. The
bug was introduced in R14B (erts-5.8.1).
The bug was most likely to be triggered when using the
read_concurrency option on an ETS table that
was frequently accessed from multiple processes doing
lots of writes and reads. That is, in a situation where
you typically don't want to use the read_concurrency
option in the first place.

A bug causing a deadlock in the reader optimized rwlock
implementation has been fixed. This bug appeared in
commit 59ee2a593090e7d53c97ceba63cbd300d1b9657e, i.e.,
it has not been seen in any released versions.

Spin wait on most ethread rwlocks used by the runtime system was
unintentionally disabled during development. Spin wait has now been enabled
again. This bug appeared in commit 59ee2a593090e7d53c97ceba63cbd300d1b9657e,
i.e., it has not been seen in any released versions.

The CPU topology is now automatically detected on Windows
systems with less than 33 logical processors. The runtime system
will now, also on Windows, by default bind schedulers to logical
processors using the 'default_bind' bind type if the amount of
schedulers is at least equal to the amount of logical processors
configured, binding of schedulers is supported, and a CPU topology
is available at startup.

Calling erlang:system_info/1 with the new argument 'update_cpu_info'
will make the runtime system reread and update the internally stored
CPU information. For more information see the documentation of
erlang:system_info(update_cpu_info).
