When optimizing boolean expressions, it is not always possible
to find a number of live registers for a GC BIF that both preserves
all source registers that will be tested and at the same time
does not include registers that are not initialized.
As currently implemented, we have incomplete information about
the register calculated from the free variables. Some registers
are marked as "reserved". Reserved registers means that we don't
know anything about them; they may or may not be initialized.
As a conservative correction (suitable for a maintenance release), we
will abort the optimization if we find any reserved registers when
calculating the number of live registers. We will not attempt to
improve the information about the registers in this commit.
By examining the coverage when running the existing compiler test
suite we find that the optimization is aborted 15 times (before
adding any new test cases). To put that in perspective, the
optimization is successfully applied 4927 times, and aborted for
other reasons 547 times.

The BEAM compiler translates code such as:
is_hex_digit(D) when $0 =< D, D =< $9 -> true;
is_hex_digit(D) when $a =< D, D =< $z -> true;
is_hex_digit(D) when $A =< D, D =< $Z -> true;
is_hex_digit(_) -> false.
to something like this:
L0: test is_ge L1 {x,0} 48
test is_ge L1 57 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return.
L1: test is_ge L2 {x,0} 97
test is_ge L2 122 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return
L2: test is_ge L3 {x,0} 65
test is_ge L3 90 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return
L3: move false {x,0}
return
We can see that tests will be repeated even if they cannot possibly
succeed. For instance, if we pass in {x,0} equal to 32, the first
test that {x,0} is greater than or equal to 48 at L0 will fail.
The control will transfer to L1, where it will be tested whether
{x,0} is greater than 97. That test will fail and control
will pass to L2, where again the test will fail.
The compiler can do better by short-circuiting repeating tests:
L0: test is_ge L3 {x,0} 48
test is_ge L1 57 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return.
L1: test is_ge L2 {x,0} 97
test is_ge L3 122 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return
L2: test is_ge L3 {x,0} 65
test is_ge L3 90 {x,0}
move true {x,0}
return
L3: move false {x,0}
return

* nox/compiler/beam_bool-bad-protected:
Properly detect nonboolean protected expressions in beam_bool
|
|
Silly code such as the following could make the compiler crash:
f() when erlang:float(self()); true -> ok.

Calls to erlang:is_function/2 where the second is not a literal nonnegative
integer can crash at runtime and thus can't be marked as safe.

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.

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.

Added only a few testcases in compiler:error_SUITE and guard_SUITE
The new behaviour of warnings and errors when overriding autoimported BIF's:
Bifs that were autoimported before R14 are dangerous because old code
using them and overriding them in exports can start behaving
differently. For newly added autoimports this can't happen to the new
code that wants to (or dont want to) use them, why only warnings are
added for the BIFs autoimported after the compilator change. Errors
are issued only for code that could have worked in one way in R13 and
now will behave in a different way.
If overriding autoimport with local function:
- if explicit -compile directive supresses autoimport
-> no message
else
- if called from inside module
- if pre R14 autoimported bif
-> error
else
-> warning
else
-> no message
If overriding autoimport with import directive
- if explicit -compile directive supresses autoimport
-> no message
else (regardless of actual usage)
- if pre R14 autoimported bif
-> error
else
-> warning
Calls of local functions or imports overriding autoimported functions
(either post R14 or by using explicit -compile supressions of
autoimport) always goes to the local function or the imported.
The compileation errors are added to not let code like this silently
and disastrously change its semantic (probably to an infinite loop)
between R13 and R14:
----------
-module(m).
-export([length/1]).
length(X) ->
...
Y = length(Z),
....
----------
The user has to select if he/she wants to call length in 'erlang' explicitly
or if the overriding semantics is desired, in which case the -compile
directive has to be used.
-compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]}). Is added to allow to override the
autoimports so that code gets unanbiguous. The directive will remove
an autoimport even if there is no local function or import overriding,
because any other behaviour would be inconsistent and confusing.
record_info and module_info can never be overridden.

Add the gc_bif's to the VM.
Add infrastructure for gc_bif's (guard bifs that can gc) with two and.
three arguments in VM (loader and VM).
Add compiler support for gc_bif with three arguments.
Add compiler (and interpreter) support for new guard BIFs.
Add testcases for new guard BIFs in compiler and emulator.

* bg/compiler-inliner:
pmod_SUITE: Again test inlining parameterized modules
compiler tests: Cope with missing args in function_clause for native code
compiler tests: Compile a few more modules with 'inline'
Consistently rewrite an inlined function_clause exception to case_clause
compiler tests: Test the 'inline' option better
compiler: Suppress bs_context_to_binary/1 for a literal operand
compiler: Fix binary matching bug in the inliner
sys_core_inline: Don't generated multiple compiler_generated annos
OTP-8552 bg/compiler-inliner
Several problems in the inliner have been fixed.
|
|
Since a function_clause exception in an inlined function will
be changed to a case_clause exception, we must test for both.
