2018-03-26Compile external fun expressions to literalsMichał Muskała
The expressions fun M:F/A, when all elements are literals are also treated as a literal. Since they have consistent representation and don't depend on the code currently loaded in the VM, this is safe. This can provide significant performance improvements in code using such functions extensively - a full function call to erlang:make_fun/3 is replaced by a single move instruction and no register shuffling or saving registers to stack is necessary. Additionally, compound data types that contain such external functions as elements can be treated as literals too. The commit also changes the representation of external funs to be a valid Erlang syntax and adds support for literal external funs to core Erlang.

2018-03-26Add +sbwt/+swt analogues for dirty schedulersJohn Högberg
Sharing these settings for all schedulers can degrade performance, so it makes sense to be able to configure them separately. This also changes the default busy-wait time to "short" for both kinds of dirty schedulers.
2018-03-26Update types for posix error codesRaimo Niskanen
I have read the man pages for most socket and file operations on recent Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris 10 and noted the possible error codes. Which error codes that are possible for file operations have been updated in file:posix/0. Error codes for socket operations in inet:posix/0. The latter refers to the former so it is a superset, assuming that e.g sendfile and AF_UNIX socket operations could cause socket operations to return any file error code. That is not entirely true, but could be, especially in the future. Added to file:posix/0 are: ebadmsg edeadlk edeadlock eftype emultihop enobufs enolck enolink enosr enostr enosys eopnotsupp eoverflow erange etxtbsy Added to inet:posix/0 are all but: exbadport exbadseq file:posix() These are still possible according to erl_posix_str.c, but are not in file:posix/0 nor in inet:posix/0, and many of them are not file nor inet related, but some might be: e2big eadv ealign ebade ebadfd ebadr ebadrpc ebadrqc ebadslt ebfont echild echrng ecomm edirty edom edotdot eduppkg eidrm einit eisnam elbin el2hlt el2nsync el3hlt el3rst elibacc elibbad elibexec elibmax elibscn elnrng enavail enet enoano enocsi enodata enoexec enonet enosym enotempty enotnam enotuniq eproclim eprocunavail eprogmismatch eprogunavail erefused eremchg eremdev eremote eremoteio eremoterelease erpcmismatch erremote eshutdown esrmnt esuccesss etime etoomanyrefs euclean eunatch eusers eversion exfull sysnotready vernotsupported ediscon enomore ecancelled einvalidproctable einvalidprovider eproviderfailedinit syscallfailure service_not_found type_not_found e_no_more e_cancelled unknown

Implementation of true asynchronous signaling between processes
2018-03-21Change default async thread count to 1John Högberg
All uses of async threads in the built-in drivers have been replaced with dirty IO, so it no longer makes sense to leave the default at 10.
2018-03-21Implementation of true asynchronous signaling between processesRickard Green
Communication between Erlang processes has conceptually always been performed through asynchronous signaling. The runtime system implementation has however previously preformed most operation synchronously. In a system with only one true thread of execution, this is not problematic (often the opposite). In a system with multiple threads of execution (as current runtime system implementation with SMP support) it becomes problematic. This since it often involves locking of structures when updating them which in turn cause resource contention. Utilizing true asynchronous communication often avoids these resource contention issues. The case that triggered this change was contention on the link lock due to frequent updates of the monitor trees during communication with a frequently used server. The signal order delivery guarantees of the language makes it hard to change the implementation of only some signals to use true asynchronous signaling. Therefore the implementations of (almost) all signals have been changed. Currently the following signals have been implemented as true asynchronous signals: - Message signals - Exit signals - Monitor signals - Demonitor signals - Monitor triggered signals (DOWN, CHANGE, etc) - Link signals - Unlink signals - Group leader signals All of the above already defined as asynchronous signals in the language. The implementation of messages signals was quite asynchronous to begin with, but had quite strict delivery constraints due to the ordering guarantees of signals between a pair of processes. The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts that service all kinds of signals. More details regarding the signal queue can be found in comments in the erl_proc_sig_queue.h file. The monitor and link implementations have also been completely replaced in order to fit the new asynchronous signaling implementation as good as possible. More details regarding the new monitor and link implementations can be found in the erl_monitor_link.h file.

2018-03-19Correctly handle get_map_elements with a literal mapBjörn Gustavsson
A get_map_elements instruction that has a literal map operand would never be translated to a i_get_map_element instruction. That would be a problem for the following instruction: get_map_elements Fail #{} {x,0}, {x,1} Since the key is not a literal, get_map_element must be used, since get_map_elements requires that a hash value can be calculated for each element. When the instruction is translated to i_get_map_element, the hash value will be set to 0 and an assertion will trigger in the debug build.

2018-03-15Tracing MatchSpec docs updateVladimir Gordeev
I was running this code in shell and expected it to take default `self()` meta tracer, and start tracing `erlang:put/2`. ``` F = fun F() -> timer:sleep(5000), erlang:get(unique_field), erlang:put(unique_field, 123), F() end. erlang:trace_pattern({erlang, put, 2}, [{['$1', '_'], [{'==', '$1', unique_field}], []}], [global]). erlang:trace_pattern({erlang, get, 1}, [{['_'], [], [{trace, [], [call, timestamp]}]}], [meta]). Pid = spawn(F). ``` But tracing didn't start: ``` 6> flush(). Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call, {erlang,get,[unique_field]}, {1521,118606,753838}} Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call, {erlang,get,[unique_field]}, {1521,118611,754798}} Shell got {trace_ts,<0.70.0>,call, {erlang,get,[unique_field]}, {1521,118616,755705}} ok 7> erlang:trace_info(Pid, flags). {flags,[]} ``` Turns out that I had false expectations, that `{trace, _, _}` would enable tracing on that process, inheriting meta tracer process as consumer of trace messages. Instead it tried to take tracer from executing process (which is pointed out in docs). But there was none, so no tracing was started and flags were simply ignored (which is not that obvious from docs). Updated docs to point out that there are cases when flags would be simply ignored, and no tracing would start.
