2015-03-15Ensure NIF term creation disallows illegal valuesSteve Vinoski
Add a check to enif_make_double to see if its double argument is infinity or NaN, returning a badarg exception if it is. Change the erl_nif documentation to specify that enif_make_double returns a badarg exception if its double argument is either infinity or NaN. Add tests to nif_SUITE for this change. Add checks to the enif_make* functions for atoms to prevent the creation of atoms whose name lengths are greater than the allowed maximum atom length. The enif_make_atom and enif_make_atom_len functions now return a badarg exception if the input string is too long. The enif_make_existing_atom and enif_make_existing_atom_len functions return false if the input string is too long. Change the erl_nif documentation to reflect the changes to these functions. Add tests to nif_SUITE for these changes. Add a field to ErlNifEnv to track that a NIF has raised an exception via enif_make_badarg. If a NIF calls enif_make_badarg but then ignores its return value and instead tries to return a non-exception term as its return value, the runtime still raises a badarg. This is needed to prevent enif_make_badarg values resulting from calls to enif_make_double, enif_make_atom, or enif_make_atom_len from being erroneously stored within other terms and returned from a NIF. Calling enif_make_badarg but not returning its return value has been documented as being illegal ever since enif_make_badarg was added, but the runtime has not enforced it until now. Add tests for regular and dirty NIFs to ensure that calls to enif_make_badarg result in badarg exceptions even if a NIF fails to return the result of enif_make_badarg as its return value. Add documentation to enif_make_badarg to specify that calling it raises a badarg even if a NIF ignores its return value.

2015-02-26hipe: change mfa_info_table lock to rwmutexMikael Pettersson
The hipe_mfa_info_table lock is currently a mutex, causing unnecessary contention and serialization of lookups for apply-like constructs. - change the lock from a mutex to an rwmutex - split hipe_get_na_nofail_locked into a "try" path which only needs a read lock, and a "slow" path which requires a write lock - reimplement hipe_get_na_nofail (used by apply ops etc) to first call the "try" path with a read lock, and if that fails the "slow" path with a write lock - reimplement hipe_get_na_nofail_locked (used by maintenance code) to call the "try" path and then optionally the "slow" path, but without taking locks since its caller already has the write lock - adjust remaining lock ops to take/release full write lock - use _rwlocked as suffix on functions requiring a write lock - change hipe_mfa_get_trampoline to call get_locked not put_locked, allowing it to take a read lock instead of a write lock - change hipe_find_mfa_from_ra() to only take a read lock

2015-02-14don't leave a heap hole in erts_bs_get_integer_2Mikael Pettersson
Reset p->htop in the oversize bignum error case to avoid leaving a hole in the heap, which would crash the debug emulator.
2015-02-04don't create oversize bignums in binary matchingMikael Pettersson
Bignums are artifically restricted in size. Arithmetic and logical operations check the sizes of resulting bignums, and turn oversize results into system_limit exceptions. However, this check is not performed when bignums are constructed by binary matching. The consequence is that such matchings can construct oversize bignums that satisfy is_integer/1 yet don't work. Performing arithmetic such as Term - 0 fails with a system_limit exception. Worse, performing a logical operation such as Term band Term results in []. The latter occurs because the size checking (e.g. in erts_band()) is a simple ASSERT(is_not_nil(...)) on the result of the bignum operation, which internally is [] (NIL) in the case of oversize results. However, ASSERT is a no-op in release builds, so the error goes unnoticed and [] is returned as the result of the band/2. This patch addresses this by preventing oversize bignums from entering the VM via binary matching: - the internal bytes_to_big() procedure is augmented to return NIL for oversize results, just like big_norm() - callers of bytes_to_big() are augmented to check for NIL returns and signal errors in those cases - erts_bs_get_integer_2() can only fail with badmatch, so that is the Erlang-level result of oversize bignums from binary matches - big_SUITE.erl is extended with a test case that fails without this fix (no error signalled) and passes with it (badmatch occurs) Credit goes to Nico Kruber for the initial bug report.

2015-01-29erts: Fix getifaddrs realloc ptr mismatchBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
When a buffer was exhausted and subsequently a realloc, we could get an invalid pointer. For this to occur we would need to have a realloc to lower adresses. The symptom would be garbage returned from erlang:port_control(Port, 25, []) (prim_inet:getifaddrs(Port) resulting in a badarg) or a segmentation fault.

2015-01-11hipe: fix ARM/Thumb interworkingMikael Pettersson
HiPE on ARM is currently severely broken if the rest of the VM is compiled to run in Thumb mode -- calling native code quickly ends up executing code in the wrong mode and crashing the VM. This is a problem on e.g. Ubuntu which configures its system GCC to generate Thumb by default. It can also be triggered by overriding CC or CFLAGS when compiling the VM. There were three issues that caused the breakage: 1. Assembly-coded functions in hipe_arm_glue.S weren't explicitly tagged as functions, preventing the linker from generating the correct mode-switching call instructions for calls from C to these functions. Fixed by tagging those symbols as functions. 2. A few BIF wrappers were so simple that they performed tailcalls to the C BIFs. This fails to switch mode when C is in Thumb. Fixed by performing ordinary recursive calls when C is in Thumb. 3. The assembly-coded source files weren't explicitly tagged as ARM. Tested with the HiPE testsuite on ARMv7, with the VM built as ARM and as Thumb. Also manually inspected the object code for the beam executable and checked that call sites from C to HiPE's ARM runtime code and vice versa used the correct mode-switching instructions.
