2010-05-15fix livelock in erts_poll_info_kp()Mikael Pettersson
erts_poll_info_kp() [defined in erts/emulator/sys/common/erl_poll.c via some name-mangling trickery] contains a code path that can end up in an infinite loop, causing a livelock. There is a block of code inside #if ERTS_POLL_USE_UPDATE_REQUESTS_QUEUE that is supposed to iterate over a linked list of ErtsPollSetUpdateRequestsBlocks and update two variables based on the sizes of these blocks. The bug is that the loop forgets to advance the list pointer to the next element, so if the loop is entered at all (the initial list pointer is non-NULL), the thread falls into an infinite loop. This patch, against R13B03 but applies fine to today's git, fixes the bug by adding a statement to advance the list pointer in the loop. All other loops over this list appear to be correct. Thanks to Chetan Ahuja for the original report of a livelock problem in erts_poll_info_kp().

That optimization will benefit calls to gen_server:call(). (See gen:do_call/4 for an example of a receive statement that will be optimized.)

2010-05-11erts: Implement recv_mark/1 and recv_set/1 for realBjörn Gustavsson
The recv_mark/1 instruction will both save the current position in the message queue and a mark (the address of the loop_rec/2 instruction just following the recv_set/1 instruction). The recv_mark/1 instruction will only use the saved position if the mark is correct. The reason for saving and verifying the mark is that the compiler does not need to guarantee that no other receive instruction can be executed in between the recv_mark/1 and recv_set/1 instructions (the mark will be cleared by the remove_message/0 instruction when a message is removed from the message queue). That means that arbitrary function calls in between those instruction can be allowed.
2010-05-11Introduce the new recv_mark/1 and recv_mark/1 instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Make the recv_mark/1 and recv_mark/1 instructions known to the compiler and run-time system. For the moment, make the loader ignore any occurrences of those instructions in BEAM files. Also update hipe_beam_to_icode to ignore those instructions.
2010-05-11Compile tests that communicate with R12 nodes with the r12 optionBjörn Gustavsson
R12 nodes cannot load code that use the optimized receive that we are about to implement.

* ms/epmd-error-checking: Exit if an error occurs with the listening socket OTP-8618 ms/epmd-error-checking The empd program could loop and consume 100% CPU time if an unexpected error ocurred in listen() or accept(). Now epmd will terminate if a non-recoverable error occurs. (Thanks to Michael Santos.)

* ms/inet_gethost-safe-debug-output: Truncate debug messages OTP-8615 ms/inet_gethost-safe-debug-output
2010-05-03Truncate debug messagesMichael Santos
When the undocumented ERL_INET_GETHOST_DEBUG environment variable is set to 5, very long hostnames can overflow the buffer used to construct the debug message. Truncate debug messages if they exceed the size of the buffer. export ERL_INET_GETHOST_DEBUG=5 inet:gethostbyname(lists:duplicate(5000,"x")).
2010-05-03allow open_port to set env vars containing a trailing '=' characterSteve Vinoski
The erlang:open_port spawn and spawn_executable directives can include an {env, Env} directive to set up environment variables for the spawned process. A bug in ert/emulator/sys/unix/sys.c prevented applications from using {env, Env} to set an environment variable whose value ended with a '=' (equal sign) character; the code mistook the trailing equal sign as an indication that an environment variable was to be cleared from the environment of the spawned process. For example, passing an {env, Env} of {env, [{"foo", "bar="}]} would result in the code in sys.c seeing a string of the form "foo=bar=" The code would see the final '=' character and assume the directive wanted to clear a variable named "foo=bar" from the environment of the spawned process, rather than seeing it as a directive to set the environment variable "foo" to the value "bar=". Fix this problem and add a new regression test for it to the port test suite.
2010-05-03Exit if an error occurs with the listening socketMichael Santos
Check errno if either select() or accept() returns an error and exit. This prevents epmd from looping and taking up 100% CPU.

2010-04-14MacOS X: Boost default stack sizeBjörn Gustavsson
The default stack size on MacOS X for the SMP emulator is too small to support all uses of pcre. For example, the following expression N = 819, re:compile([lists:duplicate(N, $(), lists:duplicate(N, $))]). will cause a stack overflow. By bisection of different values for the +sss option, I found that 166 is the smallest value that avoids the crash. Round that up to 256 to give a nice, round power of 2 and a resonable safety margin. Use that value as a default stack size on MacOS X only.
2010-04-14Fix check for compile workspace overflowMichael Santos
Patch from: http://vcs.pcre.org/viewvc/code/trunk/pcre_compile.c?r1=504&r2=505&view=patch Test case: N = 819, re:compile([lists:duplicate(N, $(), lists:duplicate(N, $))]). Compiling large regular expressions could overflow the workspace buffer. Modify the test to check for a value smaller than the buffer size.

The following program is supposed to cause an exception at run-time: foo() -> Sum1 = Sum2 = N = 2, pSum - (Sum1*(Sum2/N)). but the loader fails to load because it contains the following instruction: fconv {atom,pSum} {fr,2} Fix the loader so that it can handle fconv instructions where the first operand is a non-numeric literal.

2010-03-31OTP-8484 Fix minor cross compilation issuesRickard Green
The use of mmap() was unnecessarily disabled when cross compiling. The configure arguments --with-ssl, and --with-odbc refused to accept libraries outside of $erl_xcomp_sysroot when cross compiling for no good reason. The configure argument --with-odbc didn't handle the value yes correct. The configure arguments --with-odbc, and --without-odbc have also been added to the configure help. (Thanks to Steve Vinoski for reporting these issues)

* se/decode_packet: Fix erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) to not return faulty header strings OTP-8548 se/decode_packet erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) could return corrupt header strings or even crash the VM. This has been fixed. It only happened on 32-bit VM if the header name was unknown and between 16 and 20 characters long. Sockets with simular packet option did not suffer from this bug.
2010-03-29Fix erlang:decode_packet(httph_bin,..) to not return faulty header stringsSverker Eriksson
Unrecognized Http header names was sometimes returned as corrupt sub-binaries pointing to a stack allocated buffer. This only happened on 32-bit VM if the header name was between 16 and 20 characters long. It could in some cases lead to segmentation fault. The solution was to avoid creating sub-binary if the returned string was not part of the original binary.
2010-03-26Fix spelling: "loose" is not a verbMagnus Henoch
"Lose" means not "not win", but "loose" means "not tight". Change "loose" to "lose" where appropriate.
