Add syntax in try/catch to retrieve the stacktrace directly
|
|
It turns out that we don't need to keep track of locked
variables, because the locked variables are always the same
variables that will be alive after a #k_guard_break{}.
|
|
Remove handling of #k_match{} in bsm_rename_ctx/4.
It can never be reached because bsm_rename_ctx/4 will never recurse
into a block that is not in the scope of a #k_protected{}, and
in a #k_protected{}, #k_match{} is not allowed.
|
|
|
|
Put guard_cg_list/6 directly after guard_cg/5.
|
|
The function guard_cg/5 handles constructs found within
the records #k_guard_clause{] and #k_protected{}.
Since #k_guard_clause{} can only contain a #k_protected{},
and #k_protected{} in turn cannot contain a #cg_block{},
the clause for handling #cg_block{} in guard_cg/5 is never
executed and can be removed.
|
|
The variable being added will already be there (added by v3_kernel).
|
|
|
|
When converting a comparison BIF (such as '=:=') to a test
instruction, run the other optimizations on the result.
When trying to combine is_eq_exact tests, handle the case
that is_eq_exact is followed by a jump instead of a label
to handle a test that has been newly converted from a BIF.
Taken together, those changes will coalesce more is_eq_exact
instructions into select_val instructions.

A 'case' or 'if' that does not occur last in a function clause will
always force a stack frame. The reasoning behind this is that in most
uses of 'case' there will be a function call from within the
'case'. When there is a function call, the stack frame is needed both
to save the continuation pointer and to save any X registers that will
need to survive the call.
When there is no function call from a 'case', the resulting stack
frame is annoying. There will be register shuffling, and the existence
of the stack frame may thwart many optimizations (for example, in
beam_dead).
Therefore, add an extra pass to v3_codegen to avoid creating a
stack frame when not needed.

v3_kernel could generate a #k_break{} with only one variable, even if
the preceding code and succeding code expected more than one value. It
happened to work anyway because the value returned from the break was
not actually used.
|
|
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 ->
.
.
.

X register 0 used to be mapped to a hardware register, and therefore
faster than the other registers. Because of that, the compiler
tried to use x(0) as much as possible as a temporary register.
That was changed a few releases ago. X register 0 is now placed
in the array of all X registers and has no special speed
advantage compared to the other registers.
Remove the code in the compiler that attempts to use x(0) as
much as possible. As a result, the following type of instruction
will be much less frequent:
{put_list,Src,{x,0},{x,0}}
Instead, the following type of instruction will be more frequent:
{put_list,Src,{x,X},{x,X}}
(Where X is an arbitrary X register.)
Update the runtime system to specialize that kind of put_list
instruction.

The bs_context_to_binary instruction only allows a register operand.
v3_codegen has a test to ensure that the operand is a register.
That test is no longer necessary. There used to be a possibility
that optimizations in sys_core_fold and the inliner could change
the operand for bs_context_to_binary to a binary literal. Since
09112806c15a81b that can no longer happen, because no more
optimizations are run after the introduction of the
bs_context_to_binary instruction.
|
|
This clause seems to have been introduced in cac51274eb9a.
|
|
The clause that converted an iolist to a binary was never
executed.
Note that chunk/2 is called for all chunks in the
{extra_chunks,Chunks} option. This change will enforce that the
contents of each chunk must be a binary (as documented).

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.
|
|
beam_utils:bif_to_test/3 is supposed to never put a literal
operand as the first operand in is_eq_exact or is_ne_exact,
but 'nil' was not recognized as a literal.
|
|
|
|
The uncovered line was added in 6753bbcc3fdb0.

Place move S x0 instructions at the end of blocks
|
|
The loader has a lot of fused instructions that include move S x0.
Placing them at the end of blocks makes it possible to take advantage
of this optimization more frequently.

d8d07a7593d811 that added the to_dis option to the compiler no longer
works when merged to master. That is because of 79f28cfd8df1b7
that removed some unused code in erts_debug.
Fix this by adding a new function erts_debug:dis_to_file/2 and
use it from compile module where we have access to the filename
(in beam_listing we only have an opened file).

Add some internal documentation about cerl_clauses
|
|
This commit also adds a check to see that all files that
are part of an xi:include also have part of XML_FILES
and vice versa. It also fixes any applications where this
was not true.

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.
|
|
I recently tried to add some additional optimizations for
matching of maps, but found out that the inliner will need
some updates to be able to handle those optimizations.
Add lib/compiler/internal_doc/cerl-notes.md to document what
I've learned.

If a type only has one clause and if the pattern is literal,
the matching can be done more efficiently by directly comparing
with the literal.
Example:
find(String, "") -> String;
find(String, <<>>) -> String;
find(String, SearchPattern) ->
.
.
.
Without this optimization, the relevant part of the code would look
this:
{test,bs_start_match2,{f,3},2,[{x,1},0],{x,2}}.
{test,bs_test_tail2,{f,4},[{x,2},0]}.
return.
{label,3}.
{test,is_nil,{f,4},[{x,1}]}.
return.
{label,4}.
.
.
.
That is, if {x,1} is a binary, a match context will be built to
test whether {x,1} is an empty binary.
With the optimization, the code will look this:
{test,is_eq_exact,{f,3},[{x,1},{literal,<<>>}]}.
return.
{label,3}.
{test,is_nil,{f,4},[{x,1}]}.
return.
{label,4}.
.
