2017-08-23beam_makeops: Stop using the Arg() macroBjörn Gustavsson
Generated code uses 'I' explicitly in other places, so it can as well use 'I' when accessing the operands for instructions.
2017-08-23Eliminate the beam_instrs.h fileBjörn Gustavsson
The beam_instrs.h file serves no useful purpose. Put the instructions in beam_hot.h instead.
2017-08-23Add the 'S' type for a register sourceBjörn Gustavsson
The type 'd' could be used both for destination registers and source register. Restrict the 'd' type to only be used for destinations, and introduce the new 'S' type to be used when a source must be a register.
2017-08-23Introduce more packable typesBjörn Gustavsson
The 'I' type can be replaced with 't' if we know that the value will fit in 16 bits. The 'P' type can be replaced with 'Q' if it is used for deallocating a stack frame.
2017-08-23Pack cold instructions tooBjörn Gustavsson
Cold instructions used to be cooler (less frequently executed), so it did not seem worthwhile to pack their operands. Now bit syntax instructions are included among the cold instructions, and they are frequently used.
2017-08-23Pack instructions using 'q', 'c', and 's'Björn Gustavsson
Update the pack engine to safely push literal operands to the pack stack and to safely pop them back to another code address. That will allow packing of more instructions.
2017-08-23beam_makeops: Rewrite the packer, fixing several bugsBjörn Gustavsson
The packer had several bugs and limitations. For instance, on a 32-bit Erlang virtual machine it would gladly pack three 't' values into one word even though it would be not safe. The rewritten version will be more careful how much it packs into each word. It will also be able to do packing for more instructions.
2017-08-23Make map update instruction functions indepedent of instruction formatBjörn Gustavsson
Having the helper functions for map update knowing all the details of operands for the instruction will make it difficult to make improvements such as better packing.
2017-08-23beam_makeops: Introduce the new type 'W' (machine word)Björn Gustavsson
As a preparation for potentially improving packing in the future, we will need to make sure that packable types have a defined maximum size. The packer algorithm assumes that two 'I' operands can be packed into one 64-bit word, but there are instructions that use an 'I' operand to store a pointer. It only works because those instructions are not packed for other reasons. Introduce the 'W' type and use it for operands that don't fit in 32 bits.
2017-08-23Use the wait_timeout_{un}locked_int instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
The transformations were incorrect.
2017-08-23beam_makeops: Remove the unused aliases 'N' and 'U'Björn Gustavsson
I don't remember what they were used for, but they are certainly no longer used.
2017-08-23beam_makeops: Add an additional sanity checkBjörn Gustavsson
If a type has a size in %arg_size, it should also have a defined pattern in %bit_type.
2017-08-23beam_makeops: Prevent truncation when packing 'I' valuesBjörn Gustavsson
BEAM_WIDE_MASK covered the 16 right-most bits, instead of the 32 right-most bits. This bug will bite us when we'll do more packing in the future. This bug has been harmless in the past. It has been used in test_heap and allocate instructions for the number of heap words needed. It would be theoretically possible to construct a program that would need 65536 or more heap words, but it is hard to imagine a practical use for such a program. (The program would have to build a tuple or list with at least one variable and the rest of the elements being literals.)
2017-08-23Improve performance for bsl/bsrBjörn Gustavsson
Eliminate the variable used for holding which BIF (bsl or bsr). It seems to improve performance slightly.
2017-08-23arith_instrs.tab: Eliminate warning for uninitialized valueBjörn Gustavsson
Make it clear to GCC that shift_left_count is initialized.

2017-08-16stdlib: Improve edlin handling of unicode charsDan Gudmundsson
Let edlin handle grapheme clusters instead of codepoints to improve the handling multi-codepoints characters. The ttsl driver (and protocol) still expects all lengths as codepoints. Previously it was expected that each codepoint used (at least) one terminal column for each codepoint, and a hack was made for wide characters (multicolumn) by patching in TAGGED characters to occupy the extra space so that codepoint index was equal column index. This didn't work at all for combining codepoints that do not occupy any more space than the previous character. Improved this handling by calculating column positions in move_cursor. This is based on wcwidth() and is not perfect, wcwidth() is wrong for some codepoints and wcwidth() can not know with Hangul graphemes for example. But it works better than before without making a major change in the protocol.
2017-08-15Slightly optimize updating of mapsBjörn Gustavsson
The instruction put_map_assoc/5 (used for updating a map) has a failure operand, but it can't actually fail provided that its "map" argument is a map. The following code: M#{key=>value}. will be compiled to: {test,is_map,{f,3},[{x,0}]}. {line,[...]}. {put_map_assoc,{f,0},{x,0},{x,0},1,{list,[{atom,key},{atom,value}]}}. return. {label,3}. %% Code that produces a 'badmap' exception follows. Because of the is_map instruction, {x,0} always contains a map when the put_map_assoc instruction is executed. Therefore we can remove the failure operand. That will save one word, and also eliminate two tests at run-time. The only problem is that the compiler in OTP 17 did not emit a is_map instruction before the put_map_assoc instruction. Therefore, we must add an instruction that tests for a map if the code was compiled with the OTP 17 compiler. Unfortunately, there is no safe and relatively easy way to known that the OTP 17 compiler was used, so we will check whether a compiler before OTP 20 was used. OTP 20 introduced a new chunk type for atoms, which is trivial to check.

2017-08-11Make '0 bsl BigNumber' consistently succeedBjörn Gustavsson
'0 bsl 134217728' would fail with a system limit exception on a 32-bit BEAM machine, but not on a 64-bit BEAM machine. Smaller values on the right would always work. Make erlang:bsl(0, BigNumber) always return 0 to make for consistency. (The previous commit accidentally did that change for '0 bsl BigNumber'.)

beam_makeops will place all micro instructions in a block and generate goto instructions from one micro instruction to the next. It will also add adjustments of 'I' if necessary (if the micro instructions have different length).
2017-08-08Simplify specifying implementation of instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Eliminate the need to write pre-processor macros for each instruction. Instead allow the implementation of instruction to be written in C directly in the .tab files. Rewrite all existing macros in this way and remove the %macro directive.
