2019-02-11Use the counters module to speed up coverBjörn Gustavsson
Use `counters:add/3` instead of `ets:update_counter/3` for counting the number of times a line is executed. By default, the reference to the counter array for each module will be stored in a persistent term and retrieved every time a counter is updated. This makes the compiler test suite with coverage enabled run *almost* twice as fast (on my computer, in about 6 minutes down from more than 11 minutes). To get even more speed, the new `cover:local_only/0` function can be called to put cover into a mode where the cover-compiled code can only be run on the local node. In this mode, the cover-compiled modules in a more efficient way by compiling the counter reference into the code. This shaves off about one more minute, making the compiler test suite with coverage enabled run *more than* twice as fast (in about 5 minutes on my computer).

2018-05-15erts: Make cpu_timestamp use per thread on LinuxLukas Larsson
If we don't use per thread the value becomes completely nonsensical on systems with more than one scheduler. We keep the old solaris behaviour in order to support the option, but it only really works when using a single scheduler.

2018-04-23erts: Rewrite memory instrumentationJohn Högberg
This commit replaces the old memory instrumentation with a new implementation that scans carriers instead of wrapping erts_alloc/erts_free. The old implementation could not extract information without halting the emulator, had considerable runtime overhead, and the memory maps it produced were noisy and lacked critical information. Since the new implementation walks through existing data structures there's no longer a need to start the emulator with special flags to get information about carrier utilization/fragmentation. Memory fragmentation is also easier to diagnose as it's presented on a per-carrier basis which eliminates the need to account for "holes" between mmap segments. To help track allocations, each allocation can now be tagged with what it is and who allocated it at the cost of one extra word per allocation. This is controlled on a per-allocator basis with the +M<S>atags option, and is enabled by default for binary_alloc and driver_alloc (which is also used by NIFs).

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.

This allows us to enable/disable lock counting at will, and greatly improves the performance of erts_debug:lock_counters/1 since we no longer have to worry about the lock counters "dying" while we're enumerating them. OTP-14412

We generally avoid abbreviations such as "e.g." and "i.e." in the documentation. We write "Erlang", not "erlang" (except when referring to the erlang module).
