2017-11-30Add syntax in try/catch to retrieve the stacktrace directlyBjörn Gustavsson
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}]}] 3> 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 -> . . .

* maint: dialyzer: Extend the map implementation's handling of ?unit dialyzer: Use string:find() instead of string:str()
2017-11-22dialyzer: Extend the map implementation's handling of ?unitHans Bolinder
The Maps implementation handles ?unit in more cases. Exactly when t_is_none_or_unit() is to be called is not clear to me. The added cases are about a map type being ?unit, but the key or the value of an association can also be ?unit, but that is not always checked.

2017-11-20erts: Implement batching maps:iteratorLukas Larsson
This iterator implementation fetches multiple elements to iterate over in one call to erts_internal:maps_next instead of one at a time. This means that the memory usage will go up for the iterator as we are buffering elements, but the usage is still bounded. In this implementation the max memory usage is 1000 words. Using this approach makes the iterator as fast as using maps:to_list, so maps:iterator/2 has been removed.

2017-11-05HiPE: Support literal tagsMagnus Lång
Literal tags are used by the VM as an alternative to reserving a large virtual memory space in order to be able to quickly identify which terms are literals. The use of literal tags harms performance, but is useful to support systems where allocating a large amount of virtual memory is not an option.
2017-11-05HiPE: Verify GC safety of derived valuesMagnus Lång
HiPE has had metadata for gc safety on it's temporaries for a while, but it has never been enforced or even checked, so naturally several gc-safety violations has slipped through. A new pass, hipe_rtl_verify_gcsafe verifies gcsafety on optimised RTL and is used when running the testsuite, and can be manually enabled with +{hipe,[verify_gcsafe]}.
2017-11-05HiPE: Make is_divisible a primopMagnus Lång
Since gcunsafe values are live over is_divisible calls (although only the happy path, which never GCd), it should be a primop so there cannot be any GCs.

(Slightly) optimize catch and try/catch OTP-14683
2017-10-11Optimize try/catch that ignores the return valueBjörn Gustavsson
If a try/catch is used to ignore the potential exception caused by some expression with a side effect such as: try side_effect() catch _Class:_Reason -> ok end, . . . the generated code will be wasteful: try YReg TryLabel %% call side_effect() here try_end Yreg jump GoodLabel TryLabel: try_case YReg %% try_case has set up registers as follows: %% x(0) -> error | exit | throw %% x(1) -> reason %% x(2) -> raw stack trace data GoodLabel: %% This code does not use any x registers. There will be two code paths that both end up at GoodLabel, and the try_case instruction will set up registers that are never used. We can do better by replacing try_case with try_end to obtain this code: try YReg TryLabel %% call side_effect() here try_end Yreg jump GoodLabel TryLabel: try_end YReg GoodLabel: The jump optimizer (beam_jump) can further optimize this code like this: try YReg TryLabel %% call side_effect() here TryLabel: try_end YReg

2017-09-15dialyzer: Improve check of unknown typesHans Bolinder
The implementation of OTP-14218 (commit 6d3b38a) has a weakness: only a very limited part of the type form is checked. This is now fixed: types not used by specs are checked equally well as types used by specs. The new function erl_types:t_from_form_check_remote() checks usage of remote types. It does not expand used local types, and has (almost) no limits on depth and size.
2017-09-12dialyzer: Modify handling of singleton map key typesHans Bolinder
The test case loop.erl shows that there is a problem with certain singleton key types. Here the internal representation toggles between #{a | b => ...} and #{a => ..., b => ...} The choice is to turn #{a | b => ...} into #{a => ..., b => ...} early (t_from_form()). The aim is to keep as much info as possible (in pairs). However, including complex singleton keys (tuples, maps) in this scheme is potentially too costly, and a bit complicated. So one more choice is made: let atoms and number (and nothing else) be singleton types, and let complex keys go into the default key.
