2010-10-07core_lint: Enforce that tail segments only occur at the endBjörn Gustavsson
2010-09-23Fix compiler crash when constructing zero-size binary segmentsBjörn Gustavsson
Code such as foo(A) -> <<A:0>>. would cause a compiler crash.
2010-09-22Don't generate multiple tail segments in binary matchingBjörn Gustavsson
In binary matching, there must only be one "tail segment" (i.e. a size-less segment of type binary) and it must be last. Thus, the compiler will reject the following function definition: foo(<<A/bits,B/bits>>) -> ok. But code such as the following: [42 || <<_:8/integer, _/bits>> <= Bits] will internally (in the Core Erlang format) be translated to a binary matching pattern containing two tail segments. The compiler happens to generate correct code anyway (later passes will get rid of the redundant tail segment), but it is ugly and will confuse tools such as Dialyzer. Change the transformation of binary generators (in both list and binary comprehensions) not to generate add a tail segment if there already is one.
2010-09-22Factor out some of the code for binary generatorsBjörn Gustavsson
In the code for handling binary generators (in list and binary comprehensions), factor out the code for appending a match-all tail segment onto a pattern into a separate function. That will only make the code somewhat simpler, but will facilitate fixing a bug/misfeture in the next commit.

2010-07-29beam_asm: Simplify string table generation for beamsPaul Guyot
The code for generating the string table (which is now only used for bit syntax matching) in a BEAM file is quite complicated and potentially expensive when compiling modules with many thousands of clauses doing bit syntax matching. Simplify and optimize the code using bit syntax and binary:match/2 instead of the list operations in the original code.

2010-06-09Correct warnings and errors for auto-imported bif clashesPatrik Nyblom
warn_unused_import works correctly (does not give warnings when overridden). Local call in guard gives its own error pointing out the local/imported function. Use of the phrase "overridden auto-imported bif" instead of "redefined auto-imported bif" in textual error messages.

2010-06-03Merge branch 'pan/otp_8579_autoimport_override' into devErlang/OTP
* origin/pan/otp_8579_autoimport_override: Update preloaded modules Update primary bootstrap Remove outcommented code from erl_lint Make port_command/3 auto-imported Remove (harmless) warnings about min/max in core applications Autoimport min/2 and max/2 Improve coverage of erl_int in testcases Change warning to error for nowarn_bif_clash compiler directive Add -compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]}) doc to compiler.xml Add some testcases to compiler to verify that overriding really happens Return nowarn_bif_clash functionality but with warning Teach erl_lint to better override BIFs with local functions and imports Teach compiler to override autoimport with import First prototype for local functions overriding autoimported OTP-8579 Local functions should override auto-imported Local and imported functions now override the autoimported BIFs when the names clash. The pre R14 behaviour was that autoimported BIFs would override local functions. To avoid that old programs change behaviour, the following will generate an error: Doing a call without explicit module name to a local function having a name clashing with the name of an autoimported BIF that was present (and autoimported) before OTP R14A Explicitly importing a function having a name clashing with the name of an autoimported BIF that was present (and autoimported) before OTP R14A Using any form of the old compiler directive nowarn_bif_clash If the BIF was added or autoimported in OTP R14A or later, overriding it with an import or a local function will only result in a warning, To resolve clashes, you can either use the explicit module name erlang to call the BIF, or you can remove the autoimport of that specific BIF by using the new compiler directive -compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]})., which makes all calls to the local or imported function without explicit module name pass without warnings or errors. The change makes it possible to add autoimported BIFs without breaking or silently changing old code in the future. However some current code ingeniously utilizing the old behaviour or the nowarn_bif_clash compiler directive, might need changing to be accepted by the compiler.

2010-06-02Return nowarn_bif_clash functionality but with warningPatrik Nyblom
Wrote and changed some tests in stdlib:erl_lint_SUITE nowarn_bif_clash is obsoleted but will remove warnings and errors about bif clashes. The recommended way is to use no_auto_import directives instead. Hopefully erlang.erl is the only user in the world of nowarn_bif_clash.
2010-06-02Teach erl_lint to better override BIFs with local functions and importsPatrik Nyblom
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.

2010-06-02beam_dead: Combine is_eq_exact instructions into select_val instructionsBjörn Gustavsson
Combine a sequence of chained is_eq_exact instructions into a select_val instruction.
2010-06-02Evaluate is_record/3 at compile-time using type informationBjörn Gustavsson
2010-06-02Evaluate element/2 at compile-time using type informationBjörn Gustavsson
The erl_expand_records compiler pass translates the following code: h(X) when X#r1.a =:= 1 -> ok. to (essentially): h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when element(2, X) =:= 1 -> ok. Since the guard can only be executed when the pattern matching has succeeded, we know that the second element in the tuple X must have been bound to V2. Thus we can eliminate the call to element/2 like this: h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when V1 =:= 1 -> ok.

Commit 329f737c03db51918361e127560a6f700e99028e removed some unused code, but also introduced the need for further clean-ups. Fix a spec so that its return corresponds to reality. Take out code that will never match from a function.

2010-05-20v3_life: Remove clause that cannot match in match_fail/3Björn Gustavsson
The clause that attempts to match a #k_literal{} where the value is an atom cannot possibly match, since single atoms are always encoded as #k_atom{}.
2010-05-20v3_life tests: Cover exception handling code in v3_life:function/1Björn Gustavsson
2010-05-20beam_type: Remove redundant clauseBjörn Gustavsson
The clause does not server any useful purpose, since it does the same as the default clause at the end.

2010-05-20v3_core tests: Cover handling of pattern aliasesBjörn Gustavsson
2010-05-20v3_core: Remove a clause in is_simple/1 that cannot matchBjörn Gustavsson
The is_simple/1 function does not need to handle #c_binary{}, since it will never be called with a #c_binary{} argument.
2010-05-20v3_core: Remove unused support for generating compilation errorsBjörn Gustavsson
The state record #core{} has a "es" field that can be used for causing a compilation error. Since incorrect programs have been rejected much earlier by erl_lint, no errors were actually stored in the "es" fields. Therefore, get rid of the "es" field and the support for generating a compilation error in the v3_core module.
2010-05-20Remove stray support for the put_literal/2 instructionBjörn Gustavsson
put_literal/2 was an experimental instruction added in R11 to support literals, but before the R12 release support for literals was implemented for all instruction, making the put_literal/2 instruction redundant. Although the beam_disasm module supports dissambley of instructions in older releases, there is no reason to have it support experimental instructions.
2010-05-20Remove stray support for the bs_bits_to_bytes2/2 instructionBjörn 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.
2010-05-20Remove the bs_bits_to_bytes/3 instructionBjörn Gustavsson
The last compiler to generate code that uses the bs_bits_to_bytes/3 instruction was the R11 compiler. Since we don't support loading R11 *.beam files in R14, removing the remaining support for the instruction.
2010-05-20Cover handling of 'math' BIFsBjörn Gustavsson
Extend float_SUITE to cover the handling of all BIFs in the 'math' module. This change will increase test coverage of erl_bifs and erl_type.
2010-05-20beam_bool: Remove a clause in live_regs/1 that cannot matchBjörn Gustavsson
live_regs/1 folds over a list of tuples, so a clause matching an element being an empty list can never match. If the list for some unfathomable reason would contain an empty list, there will be an internal compiler error and no *.beam file will be created. Thus this change is safe.
2010-05-20beam_bool: Cover handling of bs_context_to_binary in initialized_regs/2Björn Gustavsson
Add a test case (derived from dets_v9:scan_skip/8), to cover the clause in initialized_regs/2 that handles bs_context_to_binary.
2010-05-20beam_bool: Remove a clause in initialized_regs/2 that cannot matchBjörn Gustavsson
When scanning a reversed instruction sequence for a function, it is impossible to reach the end of the list, because each function must have a fun_info/4 instruction followed by a label/1 instruction at the beginning, and there is a clause that will handle those instructions. If for some unfathomable reason the end of the list would be reached, with this change there will be an internal compiler error and no *.beam file will be created. Thus this change is safe.
