This commit only changes the order of functions and does some other rearrangements to that the diff with the next commit will be easier to follow. No content or XML tags are changed.

This is needed in order for the heap to never contain any pointers to invalid memory. This is good for performance and debugging reasons.

2016-07-08erts: Check if return_to trace is enabled for bifLukas Larsson
We have to do an extra check if the return_to trace is enabled here as it may have been cleared by the bif after the flags where created by the call_trace.

2016-07-01erts: Improve error printouts in erl_child_setupLukas Larsson
Add prints to stderr with a small description of the error so that errors will be easier to debug. Also if a protocol error is detected, erl_child_setup will abort instead of exit.
2016-06-30hipe: Fix bug in trap frame allocation wrappersMagnus Lång
The trap frame allocation wrappers occasionally call the garbage collector, even though built-in functions are not supposed to. On non-{x86,amd64} platforms, HiPE was optimising the BIF wrapper interface on the basis that BIFs do not GC. So, when hipe_reserve_beam_trap_frame called the garbage collector, the state in the PCB was stale and corruption happened. Now, these particular BIFs are reclassified as GC BIFs. Unfortunately, in order to do that we needed to introduce a gc_bif_interface_3 macro in every hipe_$ARCH_bifs.m4 file.

2016-06-30hipe: Add assertion for gc in bif without wrapperMagnus Lång
An easy source of tricky bugs is to start calling the garbage collector from a built-in function without adding that bif to hipe_bif_list.m4. With this change we, in the debug build, keep track of whether the canonical stack and heap pointers are stored in the PCB or in registers/stack, allowing us to catch this class of mistakes with an assertion.

2016-06-22beam_debug: Improve the disassembly of gc_bif instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Using the translation table in erts_gc_bifs[], we can now print out the name of GC BIFs, instead of just the pointer value.
2016-06-22Simplify creation of new GC BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
Add the BIF type "gcbif" in bif.tab for defining GC BIFs. That will eliminate some of the hand-written administrative code for handling GC BIFs, saving the developer's time.

2016-06-22beam_makeops: Separate static information from countersBjörn Gustavsson
The counters are only used in the special 'icount' emulator. We will save some memory by including the counters in the OpEntry. It will also make it possible to make opc 'const'.
2016-06-22make_tables: Remove broken automatic BIF aliasingBjörn Gustavsson
The make_tables script still contains a broken implementation of a mechanism to automatically give a BIF an additional (for example, was used for erlang:'++'/2 and erlang:append/2). When that featured broke, it was worked around by adding additional entries to bif.tab. There is therefore no reason to mend the feature.

2016-06-20erts: Fix spawn driver when env size is above pipe capacitySverker Eriksson
Symptom: open_port() succeeds, port program never starts but instead seem to terminate with exit_status 150 (EINVAL+128). When: If the command payload buffer (including the entire environment) for the port program is between 1 to 4 bytes above the pipe capacity, which is 65536 bytes on newer Linux, but can be as low as 4096 on older 32-bit Linux. Since: OTP-19.0-rc1.

2016-06-17make_preload: Save some memory by making preloaded code 'const'Björn Gustavsson
Mark the preloaded code 'const' to allow the compiler to put it into the 'text' segment instead of into the 'data' segment. Since the 'text' segment is shared among all instances of the Erlang virtual machine, this change could potentially reduce memory consumption (slightly). Before the change: $ size bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/beam.smp text data bss dec hex filename 2920246 352273 158472 3430991 345a4f bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/beam.smp After the change: $ size bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/beam.smp text data bss dec hex filename 3081046 191473 158472 3430991 345a4f bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/beam.smp Roughly speaking, this change cuts the size of the data segment in half.
