This trace event is triggered when a process is created from the
process that is created.
|
|
This commit completes the tracing for processes so that
all messages sent by a process (via nifs or otherwise) will
be traced.
The commit also adds tracing of all types of events from ports.
When enabling tracing using erlang:trace, the 'all' flag now also
enables tracing on all ports.
OTP-13496
|
|
Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions
in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be
very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example).
This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always
being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be
the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that
is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and
TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and
port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API.
This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the
potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed
indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other
trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved
for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive)
the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the
trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so
trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp
out of order.
Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer
module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments.

Use erlang:prepare_loading/1 and erlang:finish_loading/1 to load
modules in parallel to potentially decrease start-up times.
|

fetch_loaded/1 returns a list of tuples, not a list of atoms.

- The calling process is now suspended while synchronizing
scheduler suspends via erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _)
and erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, _), instead of blocking
the scheduler thread in the BIF call waiting for the operation
to synchronize. Besides releasing the scheduler for other work
(or immediate suspend) it also makes it possible to abort the
operation by killing the process.
- erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online, _) now only wait for normal
schedulers to complete before it returns. This since it may take
a very long time before all dirty schedulers suspends.
- erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block_normal|unblock_normal)
which only operate on normal schedulers has been introduced. This
since there are use cases where suspend of dirty schedulers are
not of interest (hipe loader).
- erlang:system_flag(multi_scheduling, block) still blocks all
dirty schedulers as well as all normal schedulers except one since
it is hard to redefine what multi scheduling block means.
- The three operations:
- changing amount of schedulers online
- blocking/unblocking normal multi scheduling
- blocking/unblocking full multi scheduling
can now be done in parallel. This is important since otherwise
a full multi scheduling block would potentially delay the other
operations for a very long time.

When we are going to implement functions that can load many modules
at once, we don't the erl_prim_loader server to become a bottleneck.
Therefore, we need erl_prim_loader:get_modules/3 that can read many
BEAM files in parallel.
Note that we will not bother making reading from archive files
or using the inet loader efficient. That can be done later if it
turns out to be important.

erts: Fix harmless dialyzer warnings

Microstate accounting is a way to track which state the
different threads within ERTS are in. The main usage area
is to pin point performance bottlenecks by checking which
states the threads are in and then from there figuring out
why and where to optimize.
Since checking whether microstate accounting is on or off is
relatively expensive if done in a short loop only a few of the
states are enabled by default and more states can be enabled
through configure.
I've done some benchmarking and the overhead with it turned off
is not noticible and with it on it is a fraction of a percent.
If you enable the extra states, depending on the benchmark,
the ovehead when turned off is about 1% and when turned on
somewhere inbetween 5-15%.

The perf_counter is a very very cheap and high resolution timer
that can be used to timestamp system events. It does not have
monoticity guarantees, but should on most OS's expose a monotonous
time.
A special instruction has been created for this counter to further
speed up fetching it.

Rename release_archives/0 to purge_archive_cache/0 to make it
clearer what it does and what it doesn't do. Also add a comment
about its intended purpose.
Note that release_archives/0 is not documented and is part of the
experimental archive feature. Furthermore, the only uses I could find
were in the test suite. I did not find any uses in the external
applications relx and rebar3 applications that are known to use
archives. Therefore, I think that the increased clarity is worth
the small risk of breaking code.

The timeout routine for efile was never called. While at it,
eliminate the n_timeouts field and simplify the logic.

prim_do_release_archives/3 can't make up its mind whether the
primary archive should be released or not. The key in the process
dictionary is kept, while #prim_state.primary_archive is cleared.
It seems that intent was the primary archive should be preserved,
because the function was intended to be called by a timeout routine
every sixth minute (it is not because of a bug in setting up
the timeout).
Therefore, rewrite the code to preserve the primary archive and
simplify it while at it. Also, rename prim_release_archives/1 to
prim_purge_cache/0 to make it clearer what it is doing.
|
|
The #prim_state.cache' field is unused. The actual cache is kept
in the process dictionary.

New timestamp options for trace, sequential trace, and
system profile:

erts_internal:check_process_code will be called again anyway
(with option {copy_literals, true}) before the module is actually purged.
No need to check literals twice.

Problem: erlang:purge_module/1 is not safe in the sense
that very bad things may happen if the code to be purged
is still referred to by live processes.
Introduce erts_internal:purge_module which is the same as the old
erlang:purge_module BIF (except it returns false if no such old module).
Implement erlang:purge_module in Erlang and let it invoke
erts_code_purger for safe purging where all clogging processes
first are killed.

|
by moving code from code_server to erts_code_purger.
This is more or less a copy-paste from code_server.erl
to erts_code_purger.erl. All the inner mechanics of
code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1 are unchanged.

Part of the return value for string_match/3 is not used by
its only caller. Eliminate the unused part of the return value
and the accumulator argument for string_match().
|
|
We don't need absolute paths unless we are dealing with archives.
Since it is not free to turn a relative path absolute (we will need a
call to prim_file to fetch the current directory), it's better to
delay the call to absname/1 until we are sure it's needed.
|
|
|
|
There is no need to use the concat/1 function since all arguments
that are passed to it have known types.
|
|
The 'init' module fetches command line parameters and passes them
to erl_prim_loader:start/3.
The code can be simplified if 'init' calls a new
erl_prim_loader:start/0 function that itself fetches the necessary
command line parameters. Also remove the documentation for the start()
function, since it there is no way that it can be usefully called by
a user application.
While we are at it, also get rid of '-id' command line parameter,
which is fetched and stored but never actually used.

erl_prim_loader:get_files/2 was an optimization introduced before the
SMP emulator (that is, before R11). The idea was to use the async
threads in the efile driver to read multiple BEAM files from the disk
in parallel.
In a modern computer with the SMP emulator, loading a BEAM module
seems to be more time-consuming than reading it from disk. To optimize
loading we would need to load several modules in parallel. We could
modify get_files/2 so that it would support parallel loading, but it
is cleaner to first remove get_files/2 and then (in a future commit),
introduce new functions to support parallel loading.
