2012-01-18	compiler: Correct live calculation when get/1 is used in try...catch	Björn Gustavsson
	In the following code excerpt, the instruction marked below was incorrectly removed: . . . {'try',{y,2},{f,TryCaseLabel}}. {bif,get,{f,0},[{x,0}],{x,0}}. {move,{x,1},{y,0}}. {move,{x,3},{y,1}}. <======= Incorrectly removed {jump,{f,TryEndLabel}}. {label,TryEndLabel}. {try_end,{y,2}}. {deallocate,3}. return. {label,TryCaseLabel}. {try_case,{y,2}}. . . . beam_utils indicated that {y,1} was not used at TryEndLabel, which by itself is correct. But it is still not safe to remove the instruction, because {y,1} might be used at TryCaseLabel if an exception occurs. Noticed-by: Eric Merritt

2010-12-02	beam_utils: Fix check_liveness/3 for receive loops	Björn Gustavsson
	Sometimes the beam_bool pass wants to know whether an y register will be killed by the code that follows and will do (effectively): beam_utils:is_killed({y,Y}, Code, L) When asked to calculate the liveness for an y register, beam_utils:is_killed/3 will loop forever if the code includes a receive loop. Since this rarely occurs, fix the problem in the simplest and most conservative way. Reported-by: Christopher Williams
2010-11-26	beam_utils: Fix liveness analysis for gc_bif instructions	Björn Gustavsson
	When gc_bif instructions occurred outside of a block, beam_utils:check_liveness/3 did not take into account that the instruction could do a garbage collection, and could falsely report that an x register would be killed. That could cause the beam_dead pass to make the code unsafe by removing the assignment to an x register that would subsequently be referenced by the garbage collector.

2010-05-20	Remove stray support for the bs_bits_to_bytes2/2 instruction	Björn Gustavsson
	bs_bits_to_bytes2/2 was an experimental instruction added in R11, but was removed in R12. Although the beam_disasm and beam_validator modules do support instructions in older releases, there is no reason to have them support experimental instructions.
