2016-11-29Improve caching in disk_logRichard Carlsson
Avoid starting timers for flushing when the written data is empty or larger than the max cache size. Previously, a single huge write to an empty cache would be put in the cache until the next write or the timer event. Also increase the cache size from 16K to 64K.

2016-10-18Code cleanup to remove confusing assertionKostis Sagonas
The code of add_ref/6 contained an assertion that somehow appeared twice. Also, a recent commit (2b2de61) suppressed an unmatched return warning in a non-optimal way. By changing the return type of hipe_bifs:add_ref/2 to be 'ok' instead of [] the code can be cleaned up and simplified. While at it, fixed the wrong indentation of some nearby code.

2016-10-14erts: Move new hipe ref and sdesc lists to loader stateSverker Eriksson
2016-10-14Add a loader state for HiPE code loadingMagnus Lång
Just like the BEAM loader state (as returned by erlang:prepare_loading/2), the HiPE loader state is contained in a magic binary. Eventually, we will separate HiPE loading into a prepare and a finalise phase, like the BEAM loader, where the prepare phase will be implemented by hipe_unified_loader and the finalise phase be implemented in C by hipe_load.c and beam_load.c, making prepare side-effect free and finalise atomic. The finalise phase will be exposed through the erlang:finish_loading/1 API, just like the BEAM loader, as this will allow HiPE and BEAM modules to be mixed in the same atomic "commit". The usage of a loader state makes it easier to keep track of all resources allocated during loading, and will not only make it easy to prevent leaks when hipe_unified_loader crashes, but also paves the way for proper, leak-free, unloading of HiPE modules.

2016-10-10erts: Improve hipe load/upgrade/purge machinerySverker Eriksson
A step toward better integration of hipe load and purge Highlights: * code_server no longer needs to call hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1 Instead new internal function hipe_redirect_to_module() is called by loading BIFs to patch native call sites if needed. * hipe_purge_module() is called by erts_internal:purge_module/2 to purge any native code. * struct hipe_mfa_info redesigned and only used for exported functions that are called from or implemented by native code. A list of native call sites (struct hipe_ref) are kept for each hipe_mfa_info. * struct hipe_sdesc used by hipe_find_mfa_from_ra() to build native stack traces.

2016-09-24Let file:write_file/3 use writevNathan Long
Previously, this function would turn any input into a single binary before writing. This meant it could not take advantage of the `writev` system call if it was given a list of binaries and told to write with `raw` mode. To see this, start an erlang shell on the parent commit, and also start this dtrace script: https://github.com/evanmiller/tracewrite like this: sudo dtrace -s tracewrite.d -p $(pgrep beam) In the erlang shell, run the following: file:write_file("/tmp/tmp.txt", [<<97,98>>, <<98,97>>], [raw]). In the dtrace output, you will see that the system call used is `write`. Now repeat with this commit, and you will see that `writev` is used.

2016-09-19Use more correct delimiters for erl_nif.h includeTuncer Ayaz
Anywhere but the beam sources we shouldn't #include "erl_nif.h", because what "erl_nif.h" does is: (1) fail to find it outside of -I dirs, (2) then treat it as if it was written like <erl_nif.h>. Using <erl_nif.h> skips (1). More information can be found in 6.10.2 of the C standard. Because the examples use "erl_nif.h", NIF projects in the Erlang ecosystem copy this verbatim and make the same mistake.

2016-09-14Don't leak old code when loading a modules with an on_load functionBjörn Gustavsson
Normally, calling code:delete/1 before re-loading the code for a module is unnecessary but causes no problem. But there will be be problems if the new code has an on_load function. Code with an on_load function will always be loaded as old code to allowed it to be easily purged if the on_load function would fail. If the on_load function succeeds, the old and current code will be swapped. So in the scenario where code:delete/1 has been called explicitly, there is old code but no current code. Loading code with an on_load function will cause the reference to the old code to be overwritten. That will at best cause a memory leak, and at worst an emulator crash (especially if NIFs are involved). To avoid that situation, we will put the code with the on_load function in a special, third slot in Module. ERL-240
