2019-03-21erts: release dirty runqueue lock before entering endless loop when BEAM is ↵Maxim Fedorov
shutting down This patch fixes a problem happening when BEAM is shutting down. It is possible for a dirty scheduler to take the lock, and keep it, when the system is shutting down. It may also happen that a normal scheduler decides to schedule some dirty job (example is major garbage collection that results in migrating the process into dirty CPU queue), and hangs trying to take the lock that will never be released. To fix the problem, either release the lock before entering endless wait loop, or reverse the order in which schedulers are stopped. Either fix works, and, of course, it works even better to apply both.

Similar bug as for bxor fixed by abc4fd372d476821448dfb9 Ex: 1> io:format("~.16B\n", [-16#1110000000000000000 band (-1)]). -1120000000000000000 Wrong result for (-X bsl WS) band -Y. where X is any positive integer WS is erlang:system_info(wordsize)*8*N where N is 1 or larger Y is any positive integer smaller than (1 bsl WS) Fix: The subtraction of 1 (for 2-complement conversion) must be carried along all the way to the last words.

2018-11-20Allow disabling retpoline in interpreter loopJohn Högberg
We only do this when the user has explicitly told us it's okay to partially disable mitigation (spectre-mitigation=incomplete). The macro is inert if it isn't.
2018-11-20Add a ./configure flag for spectre mitigationJohn Högberg
Note that the ERTS_NO_RETPOLINE macro introduced by this commit is completely inert unless spectre-mitigation is set to 'incomplete.' This includes when mitigation has been manually enabled through CFLAGS, so it should be impossible for it to unintentionally disable mitigation.

2018-11-02Optimize operator '--' and yield on large inputsJohn Högberg
The removal set now uses a red-black tree instead of an array on large inputs, decreasing runtime complexity from `n*n` to `n*log(n)`. It will also exit early when there are no more items left in the removal set, drastically improving performance and memory use when the items to be removed are present near the head of the list. This got a lot more complicated than before as the overhead of always using a red-black tree was unacceptable when either of the inputs were small, but this compromise has okay-to-decent performance regardless of input size.

Symptom: emulator core dumps during crash dump generation. Problem: erts_dump_lit_areas did not grow correctly to always be equal or larger than number of loaded modules. The comment about twice the size to include both curr and old did not seem right. The beam_ranges structure contains *all* loaded module instances until they are removed when purged.

2018-06-28Fix a race condition when generating async operation idsJohn Högberg
The counter used for generating async operation ids was a plain int shared between all ports, which was incorrect but mostly worked fine since the ids only had to be unique on a per-port basis. However, some compilers (notably GCC 8.1.1) generated code that assumed that this value didn't change between reads. Using a shortened version of enq_async_w_tmo as an example: int id = async_ref++; op->id = id; //A return id; //B In GCC 7 and earlier, `async_ref` would be read once and assigned to `id` before being incremented, which kept the values at A and B consistent. In GCC 8, `async_ref` was read when assigned at A and read again at B, and then incremented, which made them inconsistent if we raced with another port. This commit fixes the issue by removing `async_ref` altogether and replacing it with a per-port counter which makes it impossible to race with someone else.
2018-06-14Don't enqueue system tasks if target process is in fail_stateJohn Högberg
The fail state wasn't re-checked in the state change loop; only the FREE state was checked. In addition to that, we would leave the task in the queue when bailing out which could lead to a double-free. This commit backports active_sys_enqueue from master to make it easier to merge onwards.
2018-06-14Fix erroneous schedule of freed/exiting processesJohn Högberg
When scheduled out, the process was never checked for the FREE state before rescheduling, which meant that a system task could sneak in and cause a double-free later on.

2018-06-04erts: Fix race between ets table deletion and auto-unfixSverker Eriksson
Problem: 1. Process A fixates table T. 2. Process B starts deleting table T (either by ets:delete or exit) and does tid_clear(). 3. Process A exits and does proc_cleanup_fixed_table() and get NULL from btid2tab() and deallocates DbFixation. 4. Process B continues deleting table in free_fixations_locked() and finds the deallocated DbFixation in the fixing_procs tree. Solution: Wait with tid_clear() until after free_fixations_locked() has traversed the fixing_procs tree.
