2016-02-15Avoid erts_cmp jump in atom, int and float comparisonsJosé Valim
Given the function definition below: check(X) when X >= 0, X <= 20 -> true. @nox has originally noticed that perfoming lt and ge guard tests were performing slower than they should be. Further investigation revealed that most of the cost was in jumping to the erts_cmp function. This patch brings the operations already inlined in erts_cmp into the emulator, removing the jump cost. After applying these changes, invoking the check/1 function defined above 30000 times with different values from 0 to 20 has fallen from 367us to 213us (measured as average of 3 runs). This is a considerably improvement over Erlang 18 which takes 556us on average. Floats have also dropped their time from 1126us (on Erlang 18) to 613us.

2016-01-20erl_prim_loader: Rename release_archives/0Björn Gustavsson
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.
2016-01-20erl_prim_loader: Correct timeout handling for efileBjörn Gustavsson
The timeout routine for efile was never called. While at it, eliminate the n_timeouts field and simplify the logic.
2016-01-20erl_prim_loader: Correct purging of the archive cacheBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2016-01-20erl_prim_loader: Remove unused 'cache' fieldBjörn Gustavsson
The #prim_state.cache' field is unused. The actual cache is kept in the process dictionary.

2016-01-13erts: Optimize erlang:check_process_codeSverker Eriksson
by ignoring literals. 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.

as it's not a public interface.
2016-01-13erts: Make erlang:purge_module/1 safeSverker Eriksson
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.

as is strongly recommended by gcc man page. We use __attribute__ ((visibility("default"))) to make sure the init functions are properly exported.

The comment is misleading and no need to "export" static windows drivers. DRIVER_INIT for dynamic windows drivers is defined in erl_win_dyn_driver.h
