Delay creation of stack frames
|
|
|
|
|
|
01835845579e9 fixed some problems, but introduced a bug where
is_not_used/3 would report that a register was not used when it
in fact was.

|
Add syntax in try/catch to retrieve the stacktrace directly
|
|
|
|
|
|
We used to not care about the number of values returned from the
'after infinity' clause in a receive (because it could never be
executed). It is time to start caring because this will cause problem
when we will soon start to do some more aggressive optimizizations.

This commit adds a new syntax for retrieving the stacktrace
without calling erlang:get_stacktrace/0. That allow us to
deprecate erlang:get_stacktrace/0 and ultimately remove it.
The problem with erlang:get_stacktrace/0 is that it can keep huge
terms in a process for an indefinite time after an exception. The
stacktrace can be huge after a 'function_clause' exception or a failed
call to a BIF or operator, because the arguments for the call will be
included in the stacktrace. For example:
1> catch abs(lists:seq(1, 1000)).
{'EXIT',{badarg,[{erlang,abs,
[[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20|...]],
[]},
{erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,674}]},
{erl_eval,expr,5,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,431}]},
{shell,exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,687}]},
{shell,eval_exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,642}]},
{shell,eval_loop,3,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,627}]}]}}
2> erlang:get_stacktrace().
[{erlang,abs,
[[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,
23,24|...]],
[]},
{erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,674}]},
{erl_eval,expr,5,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,431}]},
{shell,exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,687}]},
{shell,eval_exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,642}]},
{shell,eval_loop,3,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,627}]}]

We can extend the syntax for clauses in try/catch to optionally bind
the stacktrace to a variable.
Here is an example using the current syntax:
try
Expr
catch C:E ->
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace(),
.
.
.
In the new syntax, it would look like:
try
Expr
catch
C:E:Stk ->
.
.
.
Only a variable (not a pattern) is allowed in the stacktrace position,
to discourage matching of the stacktrace. (Matching would also be
expensive, because the raw format of the stacktrace would have to be
converted to the cooked form before matching.)
Note that:
try
Expr
catch E ->
.
.
.
is a shorthand for:
try
Expr
catch throw:E ->
.
.
.
If the stacktrace is to be retrieved for a throw, the 'throw:'
prefix must be explicitly included:
try
Expr
catch throw:E:Stk ->
.
.
.

f9a323d10a9f5d added consistent operand order for equality
comparisons. As a result, beam_dead:turn_op/1 is no longer covered.
We must keep the uncovered lines in beam_dead to ensure that
beam_dead can handle BEAM assembly code from another source than
v3_codegen that might not follow the operand order convention.
The only way to cover the lines is to use BEAM assembly in
the test case.

The uncovered line was added in 6753bbcc3fdb0.

The v3_life pass does not do enough to be worth being its own
pass. Essentially it does two things:
* Calculates life-time information starting from the annotations
that v3_kernel provides. That part can be moved into v3_codegen.
* Rewrites the Kernel Erlang records to similar plain tuples
(for example, #k_cons{hd=Hd,tl=Tl} is rewritten to {cons,Hd,Tl}).
That rewriting is not needed and can be eliminated.

Tracing won't work on modules that are native-compiled.

Fix incorrect internal consistency failure for binary matching code
|
|
4c31fd0b9665 made the merging of match contexts stricter;
in fact, a little bit too strict.
Two match contexts with different number of slots would
be downgraded to the 'term' type. The correct way is to
keep the match context but set the number of slots to the
lowest number of slots of the two match contexts.

Add compile_info option to compile
OTP-14615
|
|
This allows compilers built on top of the compile module
to attach external compilation metadata to the compile_info
chunk.
For example, Erlang uses this chunk to store the compiler
version. Elixir and LFE may augment this by also adding
their own compiler versions, which can be useful when
debugging.
The deterministic option does not affect the user supplied
compile_info. It is therefore the responsibility of external
compilers to guarantee any added information does not violate
the determinsitic option, if such option is supported.
Finally, this code moves the building of the compile_info
options to the compile module instead of beam_asm, moving
all of the option mangling code to a single place.

Optimise equality comparisons
|
|
* In both loader and compiler, make sure constants are always the second
operand - many passes of the compiler assume that's always the case.
* In loader rewrite is_eq_exact with same arguments to skip the instruction
and with different constants move one to an x register to maintain
the properly outlined above.
* The same (but in reverse) is done with the is_ne_exact, where we rewrite
to an unconditional jump or add a move to an x register.
* All of the above allow to replace is_eq_exact_fss with is_eq_exact_fyy and
is_ne_exact_fss with is_ne_exact_fSS as those are the only possibilities left.

The compiler could sometimes emit unnecessary 'move'
instructions in the code for binary matching, for
example for this function:
escape(<<Byte, Rest/bits>>, Pos) when Byte >= 127 ->
escape(Rest, Pos + 1);
escape(<<Byte, Rest/bits>>, Pos) ->
escape(Rest, Pos + Byte);
escape(<<_Rest/bits>>, Pos) ->
Pos.
The generated code would look like this:
{function, escape, 2, 2}.
{label,1}.
{line,[{location,"t.erl",17}]}.
{func_info,{atom,t},{atom,escape},2}.
{label,2}.
{test,bs_start_match2,{f,1},2,[{x,0},0],{x,0}}.
{test,bs_get_integer2,
{f,4},
2,
[{x,0},
{integer,8},
1,
{field_flags,[{anno,[17,{file,"t.erl"}]},unsigned,big]}],
{x,2}}.
{'%',{bin_opt,[17,{file,"t.erl"}]}}.
{move,{x,0},{x,3}}. %% UNECESSARY!
{test,is_ge,{f,3},[{x,2},{integer,127}]}.
{line,[{location,"t.erl",18}]}.
{gc_bif,'+',{f,0},4,[{x,1},{integer,1}],{x,1}}.
{move,{x,3},{x,0}}. %% UNECESSARY!
{call_only,2,{f,2}}.
{label,3}.
{line,[{location,"t.erl",20}]}.
{gc_bif,'+',{f,0},4,[{x,1},{x,2}],{x,1}}.
{move,{x,3},{x,0}}. %% UNECESSARY!
{call_only,2,{f,2}}.
{label,4}.
{move,{x,1},{x,0}}.
return.
The redundant 'move' instructions have been marked.
To avoid the 'move' instructions, we can extend the existing
function is_context_unused/1 in v3_codegen. If v3_codegen can
know that the match context will not be used again, it can reuse
the register for the match context and avoid the extra 'move'
instructions.

Enhance optimisations in beam_peep

Remove query keyword residues
|
|
When cleaning selects, it might happen we're left with only one pair. In such
case convert to a regular test + jump.
|
|
query was no longer a keyword since the commit 0dc3a29744bed0b7f483ad72e19773dc0982ea50 2012-11-19.
So the quotes around query, when it used as atom, no needed.

Generalize optimization of "one-armed" cases
|

* maint:
sys_core_fold: Fix unsafe optimization of non-variable apply
Correct type specification in ssl:prf/5
|
|
A 'case' expression will force a stack frame (essentially in the same
way as a function call), unless it is at the end of a function.
In sys_core_fold there is an optimization that can optimize one-armed
cases such as:
case Expr of
Pat1 ->
DoSomething;
Pat2 ->
erlang:error(bad)
end,
MoreCode.
Because only one arm of the 'case' can succeed, the code after the
case can be move into the successful arm:
case Expr of
Pat1 ->
DoSomething,
MoreCode;
Pat2 ->
erlang:error(bad)
end.
Thus, the 'case' is at the end of the function and it will no longer
need a stack frame.
However, the optimization in sys_core_fold would not be applied if
there were more than one failing clause such as in this code:
case Expr of
Pat1 ->
DoSomething,
MoreCode;
Pat2 ->
erlang:error(bad);
_ ->
erlang:error(case_clause)
end.
Generalize the optimization to handle any number of failing
clauses at the end of the case.

The sys_core_fold pass would do an unsafe "optimization" when an
apply operation did not have a variable in the function position
as in the following example:
> cat test1.core
module 'test1' ['test1'/2]
attributes []
'i'/1 =
fun (_f) -> _f
'test1'/2 =
fun (_f, _x) ->
apply apply 'i'/1 (_f) (_x)
end
> erlc test1.core

Add stacktrace entries to BIF calls from emulator
|
|
The goal of this change is to improve debugging of
emulator calls. For example, the following code
rem(1, y)
will error with atom `badarith` when y is 0 and the
stacktrace has no entry for `erlang:rem/2`, making
such cases very hard to debug. This patch makes it
so the stacktrace includes `erlang:rem(1, 0)`.
The following emulator BIFs have been changed:
* band/2
* bnot/1
* bor/2
* bsl/2
* bsr/2
* bxor/2
* div/2
* element/2
* int_div/2
* rem/2
* sminus/2
* splus/2
* stimes/2

Introduce a new core pass called sys_core_alias
OTP-14505
|
|
The goal of this pass is to find values that are built from
patterns and generate aliases for those values to remove
pressure from the GC. For example, this code:
example({ok, Val}) ->
{ok, Val}.
shall become:
example({ok, Val} = Tuple) ->
Tuple.
Currently this pass aliases tuple and cons nodes made of literals,
variables and other cons. The tuple/cons may appear anywhere in the
pattern and it will be aliased if used later on.
Notice a tuple/cons made only of literals is not aliased as it may
be part of the literal pool.
|
|
Tuple calls is the ability to invoke a function on a tuple
as first argument:
1> Var = dict:new().
{dict,0,16,16,8,80,48,
{[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[]},
{{[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[]}}}
2> Var:size().
0
This behaviour is considered by most to be undesired and confusing,
especially when it comes to errors. For example, imagine you invoke
"Mod:new()" where a Mod is an atom and you accidentally pass {ok, dict}.
It raises:
{undef,[{ok,new,[{ok,dict}],[]},...]}
As it attempts to invoke ok:new/1, which is really hard to debug
as there is no call to new/1 on the source code.
Furthemore, this behaviour is implemented at the VM level, which
imposes such semantics on all languages running on BEAM.
Since we cannot remove the behaviour above, this proposal makes the
behaviour opt-in with a compiler flag:
-compile(tuple_calls).
This means that, if a codebase relies on this functionality, they
can keep compatibility by adding configuring their build tool to
always use the 'tuple_calls' flag or explicitly on each module.
As long as the compile attribute above is listed, the codebase will
work on old and new Erlang versions alike. The only downside of the
current implementation is that modules compiled on OTP 20 that rely
on 'tuple_calls' will have to be recompiled to run with 'tuple_calls'
on OTP 21+.
