?config is ugly and not recommended. Use proplists:get_value/2
instead.
|
|
As a first step to removing the test_server application as
as its own separate application, change the inclusion of
test_server.hrl to an inclusion of ct.hrl and remove the
inclusion of test_server_line.hrl.

For tidiness, always place .core files in data directories.
|
|
The .core or .S files that are compiled in the test cases
may lack module_info/0,1 functions, which will cause problems if
we (for example) try to run eprof later. To avoid that problem,
unload each module directly after testing it.
|
|
The 'try' ... 'catch' is problematic. Firstly, if no optimization
is possible, an exception will always be thrown. Secondly, bugs
in the code will go unnoticed.

Introduce access functions to hide the low-level details of how
type information is implemented.

Teach case_opt/3 to avoid unnecessary building
sys_core_fold: Optimize let statements more aggressively

Since '=:=' is cheaper than '==', the compiler tries to replace
'==' with '=:=' if the result of comparison will be the same.
As an example:
V == {a,b}
can be rewritten to:
V =:= {a,b}
since the literal on the right side contains no numeric values
that '==' would compare differently to '=:='.
With the introduction of maps, we will need to take them into
account. Since the comparison of maps is planned to change in 18.0,
we will be very conservative and only do the optimization if
both keys and values are non-numeric.

Given this code:
f(S) ->
F0 = F1 = {S,S},
[F0,F1].
case_opt/3 would "optimize" it like this:
f(S) ->
F1 = {S,S},
F0 = {S,S},
[F0,F1].
Similarly, this code:
g({a,_,_}=T) ->
{b,
[_,_] = [T,none],
x}.
would be rewritten to:
g({a,Tmp1,Tmp2}=T) ->
Tmp3 = {a,Tmp1,Tmp2},
{b,
[Tmp3,none],
x}.
where the tuple is rebuilt instead of using the T variable.
Rewrite case_opt/3 to be more careful while optimizing.

I originally decided that in 'value' context, rewriting a let statement
where the variables were not in the body to a sequence was not worth
it, because the variables would be unused in only one let in a
thousand lets (roughly).
I have reconsidered.
The main reason is that if we do the rewrite, core_lib:is_var_used/2
will be used much more frequently, which will help us to find bugs
in it sooner.
Another reason is that the way letify/2 is currently implemented
with its own calls to core_lib:is_var_used/2 is only safe as long
as all the bindings are independent of each other. We could make
letify/2 smarter, but if we introduce this new optimization there
is no need.
Measuring compilation speed, I have not seen any significant slowdown.
It seems that although core_lib:is_var_used/2 is called much more
frequently, most calls will be fast because is_var_used/2 will quickly
find a use of the variable.
Also add a test case to cover a line opt_guard_try/1 that was
no longer covered.

Update primary bootstrap
Be more careful about map patterns when evalutating element/2
Do not convert map patterns to map expressions

We must not convert map patterns to map expressions.

I have spent too much time lately waiting for 'cover' to finish,
so now its time to optimize the running time of the tests suite
in coverage mode.
Basically, when 'cover' is running, the test suites would not
run any tests in parallel. The reason is that using too many
parallel processes when running 'cover' would be slower than
running them sequentially. But those measurements were made
several years ago, and many improvements have been made to
improve the parallelism of the run-time system.
Experimenting with the test_lib:p_run/2 function, I found that
increasing the number of parallel processes would speed up the
self_compile tests cases in compilation_SUITE. The difference
between using 3 processes or 4 processes was slight, though,
so it seems that we should not use more than 4 processes when
running 'cover'.
We don't want to change test_lib:parallel/0, because there is
no way to limit the number of test cases that will be run in
parallel by common_test. However, there as test suites (such as
andor_SUITE) that don't invoke the compiler at run-time. We can
run the cases in such test suites in parallel even if 'cover'
is running.

The pass sys_core_fold did not correctly handle non-matching patterns in code
such as:
0 = case <<>> of
<<>> -> 0;
a -> 1
end.
Function case_opt_lit/3 is rewritten in two passes to first remove any
non-matching clause and only then potentially remove the related patterns
in each clause.

Boolean case expressions with redundant clauses could make the compiler
crash:
case X == 0 of
false -> no;
false -> no;
true -> yes
end.

In e12b7d5331c58b41db06cadfa4af75b78b62a2b1, a bug was introduced
that would cause case expressions to be evaluated more than once
if there were aliases in the pattern. Example:
X = Y = io:put_chars("some chars"),
{X,Y}
That would be rewritten to code similar to (but in Core Erlang):
X = io:put_chars("some chars"),
X = io:put_chars("some chars"),
{X,Y}
Make sure that we only evalute the expression once by doing a
transformation similar to (but in Core Erlang):
NewVar = io:put_chars("some chars"),
X = NewVar,
Y = NewVar,
{X,Y}

Case expressions such as:
case {Expr1,Expr} of
{V1,V2} -> ...
end
are already optimized to not actually build the tuple. Generalize
the optimization to avoid building any kind of composite term,
such as:
case {ok,[A,B]} of
{ok,[X,Y]} -> ...
end
We don't expect programmers to write such code directly, but
inlining can produce such code.
We need to be careful about the warnings we produce. If the case
expression is a literal, it is expected that no warnings should be
produced for clauses that don't match. We must make sure that we
continue to suppress those warnings.

ErrorInfo is documented to be:
{ErrorLine,Module,ErrorDescriptor}
but for some errors with line numbers it would look like:
{Module,ErrorDescriptor}
Ensure that all ErrorInfo tuples have three elements. Use 'none'
instead of a line number:
{none,Module,ErrorDescriptor}
There already are errors that return 'none' when no line number is
available, but that convention was not documented. Mention it in the
documentation.
Also make sure that the compiler will not print 'none' as a line
number in error messages (if the 'report_errors' option is given) as
that looks stupid. That is, when attempting to compile a non-existing
module, the error message should be:
non-existing.erl: no such file or directory
and not:
non-existing.erl:none: no such file or directory

Run testcases in parallel will make the test suite run slightly
faster. Another reason for this change is that we want more testing
of parallel testcase support in common_test.

opt_guard_try/1 assumed that it was only operating on guards, and
implicitly assumed that any function call was to BIFs without
any side effects.

In 3d0f4a3085f11389e5b22d10f96f0cbf08c9337f (an update to conform
with common_test), in all test_lib:recompile(?MODULE) calls, ?MODULE
was changed to the actual name of the module. That would cause
test_lib:recompile/1 to compile the module with the incorrect
compiler options in cloned modules such as record_no_opt_SUITE,
causing worse coverage.
