2018-03-10update erlang:process_info/1 docsMikael Pettersson
2018-03-10make erlang:process_info/1 not retrieve messagesMikael Pettersson
process_info/1 retrieves a number of properties related to a process, including the list of messages in its mailbox. This is potentially unsafe if the target process has a large number of queued messages: - there is no a priori upper bound on the amount of memory being allocated to hold that list, and - the loop to retrieve the messages is uninterruptible, so the Erlang scheduler where this executes blocks for the duration We've seen process_info/1 bring down heavily loaded nodes on more than one occasion. At least once it appeared to have blocked the Erlang heart process from executing, causing the external heart to kill the VM. Consequently this removes 'messages' from the list of process_info tags to retrieve for process_info/1. Note that process_info/1 still retrieves 'message_queue_len', and process_info/2 can still retrieve 'messages' when asked to. A few places in the OTP libraries need minor adjustments, since they want 'message_queue_len' but compute it from the length of the list of messages.

2018-03-09Check the arguments to sys_memcpy and friendsJohn Högberg
Passing NULL is undefined behavior and unconditionally executing these may result in the compiler optimizing away a later NULL check. It can often work since the pointer isn't touched when the length is 0, but it's a major footgun. See ERL-573.

2018-03-05erts: Optimize erlang:put/2 for hash collision listsSverker Eriksson
Instead of rebuilding all cons cells before key, just unlink key cell from list with a destructive heap write op. This is safe as these lists never leak out and any new-to-old-heap-refs are preserved.

2018-03-02erts: Postpone idle DistEntry until abort is completedSverker Eriksson
2018-03-02erts: Refactor DistEntry.status flags into a stateSverker Eriksson
Just to simplify and get 4 distinctive states IDLE, PENDING, CONNECTED and EXITING. The old possible flag combos were: 0 PENDING CONNECTED CONNECTED|EXITING EXITING The two EXITING states did not serve any purpose other then as a slight optimization in monitor_node(_,false,_) to shortcut EXITING when there can be no monitors.

2018-02-26Replace binary:bin_to_list CIF implementation with binary_to_listJohn Högberg
binary:bin_to_list had a poor implementation that resulted in excessive garbage collection. binary_to_list is almost identical and has a generally better implementation, so I've replaced binary:bin_to_list's CIF with a thin wrapper around binary_to_list. Granted, binary_to_list has a deprecated indexing scheme, but we're unlikely to ever remote it entirely and it's somewhat easy to move it to the 'binary' module later on.
2018-02-26erts: Delay cleanup of removed tracer on dirty schedsLukas Larsson
It is not simple to do the correct de-allocation on a dirty schedulers, so we just delay it until this process runs on a normal scheduler.
