Currently, the external fun syntax "fun M:F/A" only supports
literals. That is, "fun lists:reverse/1" is allowed but not
"fun M:F/A".
In many real-life situations, some or all of M, F, A are
not known until run-time, and one is forced to either use
the undocumented erlang:make_fun/3 BIF or to use a
"tuple fun" (which is deprecated).
EEP-23 suggests that the parser (erl_parse) should immediately
transform "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)". We have
not followed that approach in this implementation, because we
want the abstract code to mirror the source code as closely
as possible, and we also consider erlang:make_fun/3 to
be an implementation detail that we might want to remove in
the future.
Instead, we will change the abstract format for "fun M:F/A" (in a way
that is not backwards compatible), and while we are at it, we will
move the translation from "fun M:F/A" to "erlang:make_fun(M, F, A)"
from sys_pre_expand down to the v3_core pass. We will also update
the debugger and xref to use the new format.
We did consider making the abstract format backward compatible if
no variables were used in the fun, but decided against it. Keeping
it backward compatible would mean that there would be different
abstract formats for the no-variable and variable case, and tools
would have to handle both formats, probably forever.

It is tempting to transform code such as:
fun(X) -> M:foo(X) end
to:
fun M:foo/1
Unfortunately, that transformation is not safe if
M happens to be a parameterized module. Add a test
case so that we don't attempt to do such an optimization
in the future.

These dependency files was once used when building the documentation,
but are no longer needed.

The two noncharacter code points 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF were not
allowed to be encoded or decoded using the unicode module or
bit syntax. That causes an inconsistency, since the noncharacters
16#FDD0 to 16#FDEF could be encoded/decoded.
There is two ways to fix that inconsistency.
We have chosen to allow 16#FFFE and 16#FFFF to be encoded and
decoded, because the noncharacters could be useful internally
within an application and it will make encoding and decoding
slightly faster.

'behaviour_info(callbacks)' is a special function that is defined in a module
which describes a behaviour and returns a list of its callbacks.
This function is now automatically generated using the '-callback' specs. An
error is returned by lint if user defines both '-callback' attributes and the
behaviour_info/1 function. If no type info is needed for a callback use a
generic spec for it.
|
|
Behaviours may define specs for their callbacks using the familiar spec syntax,
replacing the '-spec' keyword with '-callback'. Simple lint checks are performed
to ensure that no callbacks are defined twice and all types referred are
declared.
These attributes can be then used by tools to provide documentation to the
behaviour or find discrepancies in the callback definitions in the callback
module.

Any compiler options given with a -compile() attribute in source file
would be included both at the beginning and the end of the option list
for the compiler. Including the options twice is harmless during
compilation, but since the options will also be available in
Mod:module_info(compile), including them twice will waste memory.
Include the options from the source first in the list so that they
override options given on the command line.

In the location information tables in the run-time system, source
filenames that are the same as the module name plus ".erl" extension
are not stored explicitly, thus saving memory.
To take advantage of that optimization, avoid complicating the names of
files in the current working directory; specifically, make sure that
"./" is not prepended to the name.

This commit is a preparation for introducing location information
(filename/line number) in stacktraces in exceptions. Currently
a stack trace looks like:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN}]
Add a forth element to each tuple that can be used indication
the filename and line number of the source file:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1,Location1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN,LocationN}]
In this commit, the fourth element will just be an empty list,
and we will change all code that look at or manipulate stacktraces.

Introduce the line/1 instruction in the compiler and the BEAM
virtual machine. It will not yet be generated by the compiler and
will not actually carry any information.

'eval_bits' is a common utility module used for evaluting binary
construction and matching. The functions that do matching
(match_bits/{6,7} and bin_gen/6) are supposed to treat the bindings as
an abstract data type, but they assume that the bindings have the same
representation as in the erl_eval module. That may cause binary
matching to fail in the debugger, because the debugger represents the
bindings as an unordered list of two-tuples, while the erl_eval
modules uses an ordered list of two-tuple (an ordset).
One way to fix the problem would be to let the debugger to use ordered
lists to represent the bindings. Unfortunately, that would also change
how the bindings are presented in the user interface. Currently, the
variable have most been recently assigned is shown first, which is
convenient.
Fix the matching problem by mending the leaky abstraction in
eval_bits. The matching functions needs to be passed two additional
operations: one for looking up a variable in the bindings and one for
adding a binding. Those operations could be passed as two more funs
(in addition to the evaluation and match fun already passed), but the
functions already have too many arguments. Therefore, change the
meaning of the match fun, so that the first argument is the operation
to perform ('match', 'binding', or 'add_binding') and second argument
is a tuple with arguments for the operation.

concat_binary/1 was deprecated in R13B04, but already in
the R10B-2 release, the documentation recommends using
list_to_binary/1 instead.

In warning_translate_label/2, gb_trees:lookup/2 is called
to translate from the entry label for a function to its name.
Since the gb_tree has an entry for all functions in the module,
there is no way that the lookup can fail unless there is a
serious bug.
Therefore, use gb_trees:get/2 so that an exception and an
internal compiler error will be generated if the lookup would
ever fail.

There is never any empty blocks when beam_dead is invoked.
Even if there were, they will be removed a little bit later in
forward/4.
|
|
In the optimization of binary matching, it seems that two clauses
cannot never be reached. Removing the clauses is safe, since that
would only mean that an opportunity for an optimization is lost
|
|
Because the code generator (v3_codegen) would not include the
same value more than once in a select_val/3 instruction and
because a label can only be referenced by one select_val/3
instruction, there is no way that the correct value could already
be in the gb_tree. (Even if it could happen, this change is
safe because only opportunity for an optimization would be missed;
incorrect code would not be generated.)
|
|
Since the optimizations in forward/4 already depends on some
assumptions on how code is generated anyway, document the
assumptions in a comment and remove the uncoverable code.

Since the introduction of improved record optimizations in

470c91d43eae54f63661645acbce4b92d73287cc, the optimization of
a is_record/3 call with a known correct type in
beam_type:simplify_basic_1/3 has not been covered.

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.

It is not needed because it can be trivially calculated using
gb_trees:size/1.

The compiler (sys_core_fold) tries to avoid constructing tuples
in case expressions. The following code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
{ok,X} -> X;
{_,_} -> error
end.
will be rewritten so that no tuple is built. If a clause
requires a tuple to be built as in this code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
{ok,X} -> X;
V -> V %The tuple will be built here
end.
the tuple will be built in the clause(s) in which it is needed.
If the value returned from the case is not used as in this code:
c(A, B) ->
case {A,B} of
V -> V %Warning: a term is constructed, but never used
end,
ok.
there will be an incorrect warning. Basically, what happens is
that the code is reduced to:
c(A, B) ->
{A,B}, %Warning: a term is constructed, but never used
ok.
and the optimizer sees that the {A,B} tuple can't possibly be used.
Eliminate the warning by adding a 'compiler_generated' annotation
to the tuple.
