2018-11-13Avoid closing files in gc/monitor callbacksJohn Högberg
Closing files in these callbacks could block scheduler progress and cause major system instability. We now defer these operations to a dedicated process instead. This process may in turn block forever and prevent further orphaned files from being closed, but it will keep the emulator itself from misbehaving.

2018-11-06Add a persistent term storageBjörn Gustavsson
Persistent terms are useful for storing Erlang terms that are never or infrequently updated. They have the following advantages: * Constant time access. A persistent term is not copied when it is looked up. The constant factor is lower than for ETS, and no locks are taken when looking up a term. * Persistent terms are not copied in garbage collections. * There is only ever one copy of a persistent term (until it is deleted). That makes them useful for storing configuration data that needs to be easily accessible by all processes. Persistent terms have the following drawbacks: * Updates are expensive. The hash table holding the keys for the persistent terms are updated whenever a persistent term is added, updated or deleted. * Updating or deleting a persistent term triggers a "global GC", which will schedule a heap scan of all processes to search the heap of all processes for the deleted term. If a process still holds a reference to the deleted term, the process will be garbage collected and the term copied to the heap of the process. This global GC can make the system less responsive for some time. Three BIFs (implemented in C in the emulator) is the entire interface to the persistent term functionality: * put(Key, Value) to store a persistent term. * get(Key) to look up a persistent term. * erase(Key) to delete a persistent term. There are also two additional BIFs to obtain information about persistent terms: * info() to return a map with information about persistent terms. * get() to return a list of a {Key,Value} tuples for all persistent terms. (The values are not copied.)

* john/erts/OTP-20.3.8/minusminus_trapping/OTP-15371: Optimize operator '--' and yield on large inputs
2018-11-05Optimize 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.

2018-10-24Extend the sharing-preserving routines to optionally copy literalsBjörn Gustavsson
In the implementation of the zero-copying term storage, we want to preserve sharing, but not copy literals because the modules holding the literals could be unloaded under our feet.

2018-10-23erts: Make thr prgr wakeup current or sched 1Lukas Larsson
Before this change, it was always the aux thread that was woken to handle thread progress events scheduled to happen when all schedulers were going to sleep. This was ok in the pre-OTP-21 implementation when the aux thread just slept on a tse. Now that it sleeps in the fallback pollset this uses too much cpu so instead we wake the thread that is doing the request if it is a managed thread, or else we wake scheduler 1.
2018-10-23erts: Pass thread progress data where possibleLukas Larsson
The poll thread does a lot of waking up and then going back to sleep. A large part of the waking up is managing thread progress and a large part of that was using thread specific data to get the thread progress data pointer. With this refactor the tpd is passed to each of the functions which greatly decreases the number of ethr_get_tsd calls which in turn halves the CPU usage of the poller thread in certain scenarios.

2018-10-19Fix hanging gen_tcp send vs close raceRaimo Niskanen
While a gen_tcp send was in progress with filled buffers and slow receiver a close (from another process) would place the port in a half dead state so the port could not signal back to send, that waited for confirmation. The solution is to after some time (5 s) of waiting for send confirmation set a monitor on the port, which detects if the port becomes half dead due to close from another process. The close pending loop has also been improved to use the linger timeout for waiting, and to set a system timeout (arbitrarily selected 3 min) to not wait forever when the other end reads data s l o w l y (tarpitting, kind of).
2018-10-19Honor the max heap size when copying literals after purgingBjörn Gustavsson
When a module has been purged from memory, any literals belonging to that module will be copied to all processes that hold references to them. The max heap size limit would be ignored in the garbage collection initiated when copying literals to a process. If the max heap size was exceeded, the process would typically be terminated in the following garbage collection. Since the process would be killed anyway later, kill the process before copying a literal that would make it exceed its max heap size. While at it, also fix a potential bug in `erlang:garbage_collect/0`. If it was found that the max heap sized had been exceeded while executing `erlang:garbage_collect/0`, the process would enter a kind of zombie state instead of being properly terminated.
