2018-08-07Optimize binary matchJosé Valim
The idea is to use memchr on the first lookup for binary:match/2 and also after every match on binary:matches/2. We only use memchr in case of matches because benchmarks showed that using memchr even when we had false positives could negatively affect performance. This speeds up binary matching and binary splitting by 4x in some cases and by 70x in other scenarios (when the last character in the needle does not occur in the subject). The reason to use memchr is that it is highly specialized in most modern operating systems, often defaulting to SIMD operations. The implementation uses the reduction count to figure out how many bytes should be read with memchr. We could increase those numbers but they do not seem to make a large difference.

2018-08-03erts: Fix seq_trace to not clear token for system messagesLukas Larsson
A lot of erts internal messages used behind APIs to create non-blocking calls, e.g. port_command, would cause the seq_trace token to be cleared from the caller when it should not. This commit fixes that and adds asserts that makes sure that all messages sent have to correct token set. Fixes: ERL-602

There is no reason to have a larger buffer than this as the recvmsg call will never return more data. OTP-15206
2018-07-30erts: Handle EMFILE errors in forker_driver for writeLukas Larsson
Before this change, if a write to the uds failed due to EMFILE to ETOOMANYREFS the entire vm would crash. This change makes it so that an SIGCHLD is simulated to that the error is propagated to the user instead of terminating the VM.

I did not find any legitimate use of "can not", however skipped changing e.g RFCs archived in the source tree.
2018-07-27Remove newline between can and notRaimo Niskanen
After this whitespace modification there should be no "can not"s separated by a newline in the entire OTP repository, so to find them all a simple git grep will do just fine.

2018-07-25Do not allocate a new map when the value is the sameJose Valim & Michal Muskala
This patch optimizes map operations to not allocate new maps when the key is being replaced by the exact same value in memory. Imagine this very common idiom: Map#{key := compute_new_value(Value, Condition)} where: compute_new_x(X, true) -> X + 1; compute_new_x(X, false) -> X; In many cases, we are not changing the value in `Key`, however the code prior to this patch would still allocate a new array for the map values. This optimization changes this. The cost of optimization is minimum, as in the worst case scenario it only adds a pointer comparison and boolean check. The major benefit is reducing the GC pressure by avoiding allocating data. Next we list the operations we have changed alongside the benchmark results. The benchmarks basically create a map and perform the same operations, roughly 20000 times, once replacing the key with the same value, and another with a different value. * Map#{Key := Value} For a map with 4 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 718us to 539us. For a map with 8 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 976us to 555us. * maps:update/3 For a map with 4 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 673us to 575us. For a map with 8 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 827us to 585us. * maps:put/3 For a map with 4 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 763us to 553us. For a map with 8 keys, replacing the fourth key 20000 times went from 788us to 561us. Note that we have ported some optimizations found in maps:update/3 to maps:put/3 while creating this patch.

Optimise creation of anonymous functions
2018-07-17maps:new/0 is no longer a BIFMichał Muskała
Implementing it in Erlang allows taking advantage of the literal pool optimisation, this means the function implemented in Erlang does no allocations, while the BIF had to allocate new map each time it was called. Benchmarks show the function is also slightly faster now.
2018-07-17Optimise creation of anonymous functionsMichał Muskała
This introduces a similar optimisation for normal funs to what was introduced for external funs in #1725. It is possible to allocate the fun as a literal, if it does not capture the environment (i.e. it does not close over any variables). Unfortunately it's not possible to do this in the compiler due to problems with representation of such functions in the `.beam` files. Fortunately, we can do this in the loader. Simple evaluation shows that functions that don't capture the enviornment consistute over 60% of all funs in the source code of Erlang/OTP itself. The only downside is that we lose a meningful value in the `pid` field of the fun. The goal of this field, beyond debugging, was to be able to identify the original node of a function. To be able to still do this, the functions that are created in the loader are assigned the init pid as the creator. To solve issues with staryp, initially set the `erts_init_process_id` to `ERTS_INVALID_PID` and skip the described optimisation if the value is still uninitialised.
