Introduce new "Dbgi" chunk
OTP-14369
|
|
The new Dbgi chunk returns data in the following format:
{debug_info_v1, Backend, Data}
This allows compilers to store the debug info in different
formats. In order to retrieve a particular format, for
instance, Erlang Abstract Format, one may invoke:
Backend:debug_info(erlang_v1, Module, Data, Opts)
Besides introducing the chunk above, this commit also:
* Changes beam_lib:chunk(Beam, [:abstract_code]) to
read from the new Dbgi chunk while keeping backwards
compatibility with old .beams
* Adds the {debug_info, {Backend, Data}} option to
compile:file/2 and friends that are stored in the
Dbgi chunk. This allows the debug info encryption
mechanism to work across compilers
* Improves dialyzer to work directly on Core Erlang,
allowing languages that do not have the Erlang
Abstract Format to be dialyzer as long as they emit
the new chunk and their backend implementation is
available
Backwards compatibility is kept across the board except
for those calling beam_lib:chunk(Beam, ["Abst"]), as the
old chunk is no longer available. Note however the "Abst"
chunk has always been optional.
Future OTP versions may remove parsing the "Abst" chunk
altogether from beam_lib once Erlang 19 and earlier is no
longer supported.
The current Dialyzer implementation still supports earlier
.beam files and such may also be removed in future versions.

Fixes https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-406 - a bug introduced in
0377592dc2238f561291be854d2ce859dd9a5fb1
|
|
The test is supposed to compare the Core Erlang code that has been
printed and parsed back. It did compare and print any differences,
but it did not fail when there were differences.
Also fix problems with variable names and maps not comparing
equal when the inliner has been used.

Two dummy .erl files are created while releasing the tests for
the compiler. Remove the files after they have been copied to
the release directory to avoid that they show up as untracked
files in the output of "git status".

beam_type: Avoid an internal consistency check failure
|
|
Code such as the following:
-record(x, {a}).
f(R, N0) ->
N = N0 / 100,
if element(1, R#x.a) =:= 0 ->
N
end.
would fail to compile with the following message:
m: function f/2+19:
Internal consistency check failed - please report this bug.
Instruction: {fmove,{fr,0},{x,1}}
Error: {uninitialized_reg,{fr,0}}:
This bug was introduced in 348b5e6bee2f.
Basically, the beam_type pass placed the fmove instruction in the
wrong place. Instructions that store to floating point registers and
instructions that read from floating point registers are supposed to
be in the same basic block.
Fix the problem by flushing all floating points instruction
before a call the pseudo-BIF is_record/3, thus making sure that
the fmove instruction is placed in the correct block.
Here is an annotated listing of the relevant part of the .S
file (before the fix):
{test_heap,{alloc,[{words,0},{floats,1}]},2}.
{fconv,{x,1},{fr,0}}.
{fmove,{float,100.0},{fr,1}}.
fclearerror.
{bif,fdiv,{f,0},[{fr,0},{fr,1}],{fr,0}}.
{fcheckerror,{f,0}}.
%% The instruction {fmove,{fr,0},{x,1}} should have
%% been here.
%% Block of instructions expanded from a call to
%% the pseudo-BIF is_record/3. (Expanded in a later
%% compiler pass.)
{test,is_tuple,{f,3},[{x,0}]}.
{test,test_arity,{f,3},[{x,0},2]}.
{get_tuple_element,{x,0},0,{x,2}}.
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,3},[{x,2},{atom,x}]}.
{move,{atom,true},{x,2}}.
{jump,{f,4}}.
{label,3}.
{move,{atom,false},{x,2}}.
{label,4}.
%% End of expansion.
%% The fmove instruction that beam_validator complains
%% about.
{fmove,{fr,0},{x,1}}.

This allow languages such as Elixir and LFE to attach
extra chunks to the .beam file without having to parse
the beam file after compilation.
This commit also cleans up the interface to beam_asm,
allowing chunks to be passed from the compiler without
a need to change beam_asm API on every new chunk.

* josevalim/atu8-chunk/PR-1078/OTP-14178:
Add new AtU8 beam chunk
|
|
The new chunk stores atoms encoded in UTF-8.
beam_lib has also been modified to handle the new
'utf8_atoms' attribute while the 'atoms' attribute
may be a missing chunk from now on.
The binary_to_atom/2 BIF can now encode any utf8
binary with up to 255 characters.
The list_to_atom/1 BIF can now accept codepoints
higher than 255 with up to 255 characters (thanks
to Björn Gustavsson).

Add the option 'deterministic' to make it easier to
achieve reproducible builds.
This option omits the {options,...} and {source,...} tuples in
M:module_info(compile), because those options may contain absolute
paths.
The author of ERL-310 suggested that only compiler options that
may contain absolute paths (such as {i,...}) should be excluded. But I
find it confusing to keep only some options.
Alternatives considered: Always omitting this information. Since this
information has been available for a long time, that would probably
break some workflows. As an example that some people care about
{source,...}, 2d785c07fbf9 made it possible to give a compiler option
to set {source,...}.

Suppress warnings from v3_kernel when inlining is turned on
|
|
Guards should use the more efficient 'test' instructions, not 'bif'
instructions. Add a test to make sure that the optimizations don't
degrade.
We do have to keep an exception list for functions where we can't
replace all 'bif' calls with 'test' instructions. We try to keep
that list a short as practically possible.
|
|
Ensure that correct (not necessarily optimal) code is generated for
Core Erlang code not originating from v3_core.
|
|
The guard optimizations in v3_kernel has removed the need for
beam_bool.
|
|
The compiler produces poor code for complex guard expressions with andalso/orelse.
Here is an example from the filename module:
-define(IS_DRIVELETTER(Letter),(((Letter >= $A) andalso (Letter =< $Z)) orelse
((Letter >= $a) andalso (Letter =< $z)))).
skip_prefix(Name, false) ->
Name;
skip_prefix([L, DrvSep|Name], DrvSep) when ?IS_DRIVELETTER(L) ->
Name;
skip_prefix(Name, _) ->
Name.
beam_bool fails to simplify the code for the guard, leaving several 'bif'
instructions:
{function, skip_prefix, 2, 49}.
{label,48}.
{line,[{location,"filename.erl",187}]}.
{func_info,{atom,filename},{atom,skip_prefix},2}.
{label,49}.
{test,is_ne_exact,{f,52},[{x,1},{atom,false}]}.
{test,is_nonempty_list,{f,52},[{x,0}]}.
{get_list,{x,0},{x,2},{x,3}}.
{test,is_nonempty_list,{f,52},[{x,3}]}.
{get_list,{x,3},{x,4},{x,5}}.
{bif,'=:=',{f,52},[{x,1},{x,4}],{x,6}}.
{test,is_ge,{f,50},[{x,2},{integer,65}]}.
{bif,'=<',{f,52},[{x,2},{integer,90}],{x,7}}.
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,51},[{x,7},{atom,false}]}.
{test,is_ge,{f,50},[{x,2},{integer,97}]}.
{bif,'=<',{f,52},[{x,2},{integer,122}],{x,7}}.
{jump,{f,51}}.
{label,50}.
{move,{atom,false},{x,7}}.
{label,51}.
{bif,'=:=',{f,52},[{x,7},{atom,true}],{x,7}}.
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,52},[{x,6},{atom,true}]}.
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,52},[{x,7},{atom,true}]}.
{move,{x,5},{x,0}}.
return.
{label,52}.
return.
We can add optimizations of guard tests to v3_kernel to achive a better result:
{function, skip_prefix, 2, 49}.
{label,48}.
{line,[{location,"filename.erl",187}]}.
{func_info,{atom,filename},{atom,skip_prefix},2}.
{label,49}.
{test,is_ne_exact,{f,51},[{x,1},{atom,false}]}.
{test,is_nonempty_list,{f,51},[{x,0}]}.
{get_list,{x,0},{x,2},{x,3}}.
{test,is_nonempty_list,{f,51},[{x,3}]}.
{get_list,{x,3},{x,4},{x,5}}.
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,51},[{x,1},{x,4}]}.
{test,is_ge,{f,51},[{x,2},{integer,65}]}.
{test,is_lt,{f,50},[{integer,90},{x,2}]}.
{test,is_ge,{f,51},[{x,2},{integer,97}]}.
{test,is_ge,{f,51},[{integer,122},{x,2}]}.
{label,50}.
{move,{x,5},{x,0}}.
return.
{label,51}.
return.
Looking at the STDLIB application, there were 112 lines of BIF calls in guards
that beam_bool failed to convert to test instructions. This commit eliminates
all those BIF calls.
Here is how I counted the instructions:
$ PATH=$ERL_TOP/bin:$PATH erlc -I ../include -I ../../kernel/include -S *.erl
$ grep "bif,'[=<>]" *.S | grep -v f,0
dets.S: {bif,'=:=',{f,547},[{x,4},{atom,read_write}],{x,4}}.
dets.S: {bif,'=:=',{f,547},[{x,5},{atom,saved}],{x,5}}.
dets.S: {bif,'=:=',{f,589},[{x,5},{atom,read}],{x,5}}.
.

v3_kernel may produce unwanted and confusing warnings for code that
has been inlined with the new inliner (cerl_inline). Consider this
code:
-compile(inline).
compute1(X) ->
add(X, 0).
compute2(X, Y) ->
add(X, Y).
add(1, 0) ->
1;
add(1, Y) -> %% "this clause cannot match..."
1 + Y;
add(X, Y) ->
X + Y.
v3_kernel warns because add/2 has been inlined into compute1/1 and only
the first clause in add/2 will match. But the other clauses are needed
when add/2 is inlined into compute2/2, so the user cannot do anything
to eliminate the warning (short of manually inlining add/2, defeating the
purpose of the 'inline' option).
The warning would be reasonable if compute2/2 didn't exist, but it would
be too complicated for the compiler to figure whether a warning make
sense or not.
Therefore, suppress all warnings generated by v3_kernel if cerl_inline
has been run.

beam_bsm: Eliminate unsafe optimization
|
|
The following code causes a compiler failure:
first_after(Data, Offset) ->
case byte_size(Data) > Offset of
false ->
{First, Rest} = {ok, ok},
ok;
true ->
<<_:Offset/binary, Rest/binary>> = Data,
%% 'Rest' saved in y(0) before the call.
{First, _} = match_first(Data, Rest),
%% When beam_bsm sees the code, the following line
%% which uses y(0) has been optimized away.
{First, Rest} = {First, Rest},
First
end.
match_first(_, <<First:1/binary, Rest/binary>>) ->
{First, Rest}.
Here is the error message from beam_validator:
t: function first_after/2+15:
Internal consistency check failed - please report this bug.
Instruction: {call,2,{f,7}}
Error: {multiple_match_contexts,[{x,1},0]}:
Basically, what happens is that at time of code generation,
the variable 'Rest' is needed after the call to match_first/2
and is therefore saved in y(0). When beam_bsm (a late optimization
pass) sees the code, the use of y(0) following the call
to match_first/2 has been optimized away. beam_bsm therefore
assumes that the delayed sub-binary creation is safe. (Actually,
it is safe, but beam_validator does not realize it.)
The bug was caused by two separate commits:
e199e2471a reduced the number of special cases to handle in BEAM
optimization passed by breaking apart the tail-recursive call
instructions (call_only and call_last) into separate instructions.
Unfortunately, the special handling for tail calls was lost, which
resulted in worse code (i.e. the delayed sub-binary creation
optimization could not be applied).
e1aa422290 tried to compensate, but did so in a way that was not
always safe.
Teaching beam_validator that this kind of code is safe would be
expensive.
Instead, we will undo the damage caused by the two
commits. Re-introduce the special handling of tail-recursive calls in
beam_bsm that was lost in the first commit. (Effectively) revert the
change in the second commit.

beam_block: Avoid unsafe inclusion of get_map_elements in blocks
|
|
c2035ebb8b restricted the get_map_elements instruction so that it
could only occur at the beginning of a block. It turns out that
including it anywhere in a block is unsafe.
Therefore, never put get_map_elements instruction in blocks.
(Also remove the beam_utils:join_even/2 function since it is no
longer used.)
ERL-266
|
|
When beam_utils was first written, it did not have the functions
for testing whether a register was not used. Those were added
later, in sort of a hacky way.
Also, is_killed*() and is_not_used*() for Y registers would
return the same answer. Fix that to make the API more consistent
(an Y register can only be killed by a deallocate/1 instruction).
We will need to change beam_trim to call beam_utils:is_not_used/3
instead of beam_utils:is_killed/3.
|
|
During development, a bug in beam_utils caused a compiler failure
in xmerl. If the bug reappears, make sure that we catch it when
compiling the compiler test suite.

beam_validator: Handle unreachable instructions
Turn off parallel make for start scripts Makefile
|
|
ab03678e introduced an optimization in the beam_z pass that could
introduce unreachable code in BEAM files (a 'jump' instruction is
removed after a 'raise' instruction, but the code following the
target of the 'jump' is not removed).
Since this situation happens very rarely, there is no point in adding
another pass that can remove unreachable code after beam_z. Instead we
will make sure that beam_validator can skip the unreachable code.
Skipping unreachable code is already done in valfun_1/2 (for
historical reasons), but we will also need to do it in val_dsetel/2.
