2011-11-17erts,kernel: Return eprotonosupport when SCTP is not supportedRaimo Niskanen
It is better that gen_sctp:open/0-2 returns the informative Posix return code {error,eprotonosupport} than previously {error,badarg} when SCTP is not supported since it is so platform dependent.

On e.g FreeBSD the functions sctp_bindx() and sctp_peeloff() do not require any extra linkage library flags and there is no dynamic lib to load for them; use configure to find them.

2011-11-17external.c: Remove the option to create over-sized heap binariesBjörn Gustavsson
Since refc binaries are now supported in literal pools, there is no longer any need to allow the creation of over-sized heap binaries.
2011-11-17Allow refc binaries in literal poolsBjörn Gustavsson
To simplify the implementation of literal pools (constant pools) for the R12 release, a shortcut was taken regarding binaries -- all binaries would be stored as heap binaries regardless of size. To allow a module containing literals to be unloaded, literal terms are copied when sent to another process. That means that huge literal binaries will also be copied if they are sent to another process, which could be surprising. Another problem is that the arity field in the header for the heap object may not be wide enough to handle big binaries. Therefore, bite the bullet and allow refc binaries to be stored in literal pools. In short, the following need to be changed: * Each loaded module needs a MSO list, linking all refc binaries in the literal pool. * When check_process_code/2 copies literals to a process heap, it must link each referenced binary into the MSO list for the process and increment the reference counter for the binary. * purge_module/1 must decrement the reference counter for each refc binary in the literal pool.

2011-11-17BEAM loader: Don't stop other schedulers until truly neededBjörn Gustavsson
The erlang:module_load/2 BIF will stop all other schedulers before it starts to process the BEAM file. That is not a problem when starting the Erlang/OTP system, since the start-up is mostly sequential. It is a problem, however, when big BEAM files are loaded in an already running system. After the refactoring in the previous commits, we can now do most of the processing of the BEAM file before we stop the other schedulers, so that we can minimize the time when only one scheduler will be running.

* bjorn/erts/erlc-do-not-bind: erlc: Do not bind schedulers when invoking "erl"
2011-11-14erlc: Do not bind schedulers when invoking "erl"Björn Gustavsson
If parallel make is used, several instance of 'erlc' is likely to be invoked at once. Therefore, the default binding of schedulers to CPU cores will do no good. (With this change, the build of Erlang/OTP with six threads finished in about 7 minutes; without in about 11 minutes.)
2011-11-14BEAM loader: Refactor code loading into separate functionsBjörn Gustavsson
Break apart code loading into the three functions: erts_alloc_loader_state() erts_prepare_loading() erts_finish_loading() The erts_alloc_loader_state() and erts_prepare_loading() can be executed with all schedulers running. Only erts_finish_loading() needs to be run in a single-scheduling system.
2011-11-14beam_load.c: Factor out cleaning up of the loader state into free_state()Björn Gustavsson
2011-11-14BEAM loader: Clean up handling of error reasonsBjörn Gustavsson
There is no reason to have erts_load_module() return integer values, only to have the caller convert the values to atoms. Return the appropriate atom directly from the place where the error is generated instead. Return NIL if the module was successfully loaded.

The -l option used to print information about modules being loaded, but now it prints very little information.
2011-11-14beam_load.c: Simplify handling of the bs_put_string_II instructionBjörn Gustavsson
Remove the special-case handling of the bs_put_string_II instruction; simply use the string patch mechanism that is already used for the i_bs_match_string_* instructions.

2011-11-13Make sure only one thread exits the runtime systemRickard Green
The runtime system crashed if more than one thread tried to exit the runtime system at the same time.
2011-11-13Use critical sections as mutex implementation on WindowsRickard Green
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.
2011-11-13Use generic lock-free queue for async threadsRickard Green
Queues used for communication between async threads and scheduler threads have been replaced with lock-free queues. Drivers using the driver_async functionality are not automatically locked to the system anymore, and can be unloaded as any dynamically linked in driver. Scheduling of ready async jobs is now also interleaved in between other jobs. Previously all ready async jobs was performed at once.
2011-11-13Use generic lock-free queue for misc aux workRickard Green
2011-11-13Implement generic lock-free queueRickard Green
The implementation of an ERTS internal, generic, many to one, lock-free queue for communication between threads. The many to one scenario is very common in ERTS, so it can be used in a lot of places in the future. Changing to this queue from a lock based queue, however, often requires some redesigning. This since we have often used the lock of the queue to protect other information too.
2011-11-13Replace system block with thread progress blockRickard Green
The ERTS internal system block functionality has been replaced by new functionality for blocking the system. The old system block functionality had contention issues and complexity issues. The new functionality piggy-backs on thread progress tracking functionality needed by newly introduced lock-free synchronization in the runtime system. When the functionality for blocking the system isn't used there is more or less no overhead at all. This since the functionality for tracking thread progress is there and needed anyway.
2011-11-13Optimize memory allocationRickard Green
A number of memory allocation optimizations have been implemented. Most optimizations reduce contention caused by synchronization between threads during allocation and deallocation of memory. Most notably: * Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific allocator instances has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization. * Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific pre-allocators has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization. * The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use scheduler specific instances instead of one instance. Apart from reducing contention this also ensures that memory allocators always create memory segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.

2011-11-10erts: Teach VM to reallocate beam catch tableBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Previously this table were statically allocated to 16*1024 entries. Now the default size is 1024 entries but that is doubled each time the limit is reached. Theoretical upper limit is 2^26 entries (the remaining bits on a catch datatype) in a 32 bit system.
