* bjorn/compiler/beam_bool/ERL-143: Eliminate crash in beam_bool Add beam_bool_SUITE Add missing test cases in andor_SUITE and beam_block_SUITE
2016-05-16Eliminate crash in beam_boolBjörn Gustavsson
beam_bool would crash when attempting to optimize BEAM code similar to this code: bif '=:=' Reg1 SomeValue => y(0) bif '=:=' Reg2 {atom,true} => x(2) bif '=:=' Reg3 {atom,true} => x(3) bif 'or' x(2) x(3) => x(2) is_eq_exact Fail x(2) {atom,true} The problem is that the first instruction that assigns a value to a Y register. beam_bool:ssa_assign/2 will not accept a Y register argument. We could change ssa_assign/2 to accept a Y register, but that would only cause the entire optimization to be rejected later because the Y register is alive in the code that follows. Therefore, a better solution is to modify extend_block/3 so that the instruction that assign to Y registers are not added to the block. That is, the optimizer will only operate on the following code: bif '=:=' Reg2 {atom,true} => x(2) bif '=:=' Reg3 {atom,true} => x(3) bif 'or' x(2) x(3) => x(2) is_eq_exact Fail x(2) {atom,true} Usually the optimization will succeed, rewriting the four instructions to a select_val instruction. Assembly code such as the above can be produced by code similar to: Y = Something == SomethingElse, case Y of Condition; OtherCondition -> . . . end, . . ., Y.

2016-05-16Add beam_bool_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
It's time that we have a dedicated test suite for beam_bool.
2016-05-16Add missing test cases in andor_SUITE and beam_block_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
Two test cases were not actually run. Even if their main purpose is to ensure that the compiler doesn't crash, we always try to also run the test case (when practial) to also ensure that the generated code is correct.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Correct break in conventions for split_even/1 and join_even/1Björn Gustavsson
Exported functions in this file should appear at the top of the file. Also add missing spaces after commas.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Remove clause checking for illegal set/4 instructionBjörn Gustavsson
I can't remember that clause ever trigger during development. Remove it to eliminated an uncovered line.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Simplify the return value for check_liveness/3Björn Gustavsson
check_liveness/3 returns {unknown,State} if an instruction is not handled. All callers will handle 'unknown' the same way as 'used'. Therefore, we can simplify the code and improve the coverage if we return {used,State} instead of {unknown,State}.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Remove unused codeBjörn Gustavsson
2016-05-13beam_utils: Let code_at/2 fail if the label does not existBjörn Gustavsson
All callers only calls code_at/2 for existing labels and they don't handle the return value 'none'.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Remove unused handling of try/3 in live_opt/4Björn Gustavsson
30cc5c902d moved try/3 instruction inside blocks, so the clause for handling try/3 in live_opt/4 is never executed.
2016-05-13beam_utils: Correct translation of BIFs to testsBjörn Gustavsson
Two lines were never covered, because '[]' was used instead of 'nil'.
2016-05-13core_pp: Remove uncovered clause in is_simple_term/1Björn Gustavsson
The clause for handling #c_values{} in is_simple_term/1 is never executed. It can be safely removed, since there is a default clause that will return 'false' in the extremly unlikely event that a Without the clause, code such as: let <_v1,_v2> = <1,2> in {_v1,_v2} would be printed with an extra newline: let <_v1,_v2> = <1,2> in {_v1,_v2}
2016-05-13core_pp: Crash on unhandled Core Erlang formsBjörn Gustavsson
Don't try to be nice. Since we now have good test suites for Core Erlang, just let it crash.
2016-05-13core_pp: Remove unused clauses in unindent/3 to improve coverageBjörn Gustavsson
2016-05-13core_pp: Remove useless try...catchBjörn Gustavsson
We will get more information if we don't catch the exception.
2016-05-13core_pp: Simplify printing of map literalsBjörn Gustavsson
Map patterns are never represented as literals. Therefore, a map literal should always be printed with the 'assoc' operator. That also means that there is no remaining use of the 'class' field and that it can be removed from the 'ctxt' record.
2016-05-13compile_SUITE: Cover numeric variable names in core_ppBjörn Gustavsson
The inliner generates variable whose names are numeric. Run the inliner to cover one more line in core_pp.
2016-05-13compile_SUITE: Eliminate clones when re-compiling test suitesBjörn Gustavsson
Several test cases in compile_SUITE (e.g. core/1) extracts the abstract code from a BEAM file and runs the compiler on it. It is only a waste of time to use the abstract code from cloned versions of test case modules. That is, use record_SUITE, but don't use record_no_opt_SUITE, record_post_opt_SUITE, or record_inline_SUITE since they all contain essentially the same abstract code.
2016-05-13test_lib: Add is_cloned_mod/1Björn Gustavsson
Add is_cloned_mod(Mod) to determine whether Mod is the original name for a module (e.g. record_SUITE) or a cloned module (e.g. record_no_opt_SUITE).
2016-05-13trycatch_SUITE: Cover the only uncovered line in sys_core_foldBjörn Gustavsson
Recent spring cleaning in the test suite left a line in sys_core_fold dealing with an unnecessary catch uncovered.
2016-05-13test_lib: Correct calculation of number of processesBjörn Gustavsson
Correct calculation of the number of parallel processes to use when cover is used. It was supposed not to exceed 4 (according to the comment), but it was calculated as the number of schedulers. On my computer, having 8 schedulers, this change made the compiler test suite with cover run almost twice as fast.
2016-05-12sys_core_fold: Don't generated failing calls such as 3(4)Björn Gustavsson
Rewrite code such as: X = not_a_fun, X() to: error({badfun,not_a_fun}) Also generate a warning.
2016-05-12fun_SUITE: Test for failing calls to funsBjörn Gustavsson
2016-05-09compiler: Let module_info(attributes) skip more attributesHans Bolinder
'callback' and 'optional_callbacks' are no longer wild attributes.
2016-04-29Merge branch 'bjorn/compiler/core-erlang-fixes'Björn Gustavsson
* bjorn/compiler/core-erlang-fixes: Slightly optimize core_pp v3_core: Don't depend on sys_core_fold for cleaning up
2016-04-28dialyzer: Unfold cerl patterns containing mapsMagnus Lång
Dialyzer relies heavily on the assumption that the type of a literal that is used as a pattern is the type of any value that can match that pattern. For maps, that is not true, and it was causing bad analysis results. A new help function dialyzer_utils:refold_pattern/1 identifies maps in literal patterns, and unfolds and labels them, allowing them to be properly analysed.
2016-04-28Slightly optimize core_ppBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-28v3_core: Don't depend on sys_core_fold for cleaning upBjörn Gustavsson
v3_core would generate unsafe code for the following example: f() -> {ok={error,E}} = foo(), E. Internally, the code would look similar to: f() -> Var = foo(), error({badmatch,Var}), E. That is, there would remain a reference to an unbound variable. Normally, sys_core_fold would remove the reference to 'E', but if if optimization was disabled the compiler would crash.
2016-04-27compilation_SUITE: Use explicit exportsBjörn Gustavsson
With 'export_all' it is easy to add a new test case function and forget to add its name to the list of test cases to run. While we are it, remove unused functions and add the forgotten test case on_load_inline/1.
2016-04-27Remove support for running tests on a separate Erlang nodeBjörn Gustavsson
It has not been used for ages.
2016-04-27Move code from compilation_SUITE to beam_block_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Move list comprehension tests to lc_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Move catch tests to trycatch_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Remove compilation_SUITE:long_string/1Björn Gustavsson
long_string/1 was written to test that long string were handled efficiently in beam_asm. Strings used to be stored in the string table chunk, but are currently literals. There does not seem that this test case is likely to find any bugs.
2016-04-27Move pattern-matching tests to match_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Remove toothless test compile_SUITE:missing_testheap/1Björn Gustavsson
missing_testheap/1 is no longer relevant for the following reasons: 1) Because of the literal pool introduced in R12, no test_heap instructions are needed in the guards. 2) beam_validator would abort the compilation if any needed test_heap instructions were missing.
2016-04-27misc_SUITE: Add missing export of integer_encoding/0Björn Gustavsson
The integer_encoding/1 test is supposed to be run with a tighter timetrap ensure that encoding of integer in BEAM files is efficient enough.
2016-04-27Move test cases from compilation_SUITE to beam_utils_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
beam_utils_SUITE didn't exist when the two test cases were written.
2016-04-27Move complex_guard/1 from compilation_SUITE to guard_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Remove compilation_SUITE:guards/1Björn Gustavsson
Obsoleted by guard_SUITE (especially literal_type_tests/1).
2016-04-27Move tests from compilation_SUITE to record_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-27Move bit syntax test cases from compilation_SUITE to bs_match_SUITEBjörn Gustavsson
We used to put code that would crash the compiler into compilation_SUITE_data. That way we would have a failing test case to remind us to fix a bug. Nowadays, we generally fix the bug and write the test case at the same time. Therefore it makes more sense to put the test code directly into a test suite. Move out bin_syntax_1 through bin_syntax_5 test cases. Scrap bin_syntax_6 because it does not longer seems to be relevant. While we are it, rename the fun_shadow/1 test to size_shadow/1. Also make sure that the code produces the correct result.
2016-04-27Remove useless test case compilation_SUITE:otp_2141/1Björn Gustavsson
2016-04-27compilation_SUITE: Run the Core linter for all compilationsBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-25compiler: Remove use of crypto:rand_bytes/1Ingela Anderton Andin
Use case in compile.erl is cryptographical so use crypto:strong_rand_bytes/1 instead. Use case in test suite is not cryptographical so use other test instead.
2016-04-25Merge branch 'bjorn/compiler/remove-timestamps/OTP-13504'Björn Gustavsson
* bjorn/compiler/remove-timestamps/OTP-13504: Remove timestamps from BEAM files
2016-04-25Remove timestamps from BEAM filesBjörn Gustavsson
As long as anyone can remember, the compilation time has been included in BEAM files (and can be retrieved using Mod:module_info(compile)). The timestamp has caused problems for anyone using tools such as 'cmp' to compare BEAM files or for package managers: http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2016-April/088717.html Rarely has the timestamp been of any use. Yes, sometimes the timestamp could help to figuring out which version of a module was used, but nowadays a better way is to use Mod:module_info(md5). To get rid of this problem, remove the timestamp from BEAM files in OTP 19. Don't add an option to include timestamps. Utilities that depend on the timestamp will need to be modified. For example: http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2016-April/088730.html Instead of using the compilation time, the MD5 for the BEAM code can be used. Example: 1> c:module_info(md5). <<79,26,188,243,168,60,58,45,34,69,19,222,138,190,214,118>> 2> beam_lib:md5(code:which(c)). {ok,{c,<<79,26,188,243,168,60,58,45,34,69,19,222,138,190,214,118>>}} 3>
2016-04-21Add compile_SUITE:core_roundtrip/1Björn Gustavsson
When debugging, it is important that we can trust the Core Erlang pretty printer and Core Erlang parser.
2016-04-21v3_core: Construct {badmap,Map} as literal if possibleBjörn Gustavsson
2016-04-21core_pp: Print {file,File} annotations more compactlyBjörn Gustavsson
This will speed up test cases that print all annotations.
