2017-11-30Make file:sendfile/5 follow its documented error behaviorJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Remove doc for sendfile/5 use_threads optionJohn Högberg
The option no longer does anything; systems that lack support for non-blocking sendfile(2) will use the Erlang fallback.
2017-11-30Update file performance adviceJohn Högberg
The parts relating to drivers/ports are now obsolete, and the provided example was far noisier than it had to be; the only relevant metric is the number of calls and it's up to the user to decide how those will be reduced. One could argue for its complete removal, but I'm inclined to leave it be.
2017-11-30Use tcp_inet as an example driver instead of efileJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Remove all mention of efile_drv from DTrace docsJohn Högberg
efile_drv is gone and so is the need for file-specific DTrace. The new implementation works fine with the normal tracing mechanism so there's nothing preventing anyone from making an erl_tracer nif that forward these events to DTrace.
2017-11-30Stop testing use_threads in sendfile_SUITEJohn Högberg
The option no longer does anything at all.
2017-11-30Stop testing the artificial size limit on writesJohn Högberg
The old driver didn't fall back to using write(2) if writev(2) failed due to the combined length of the iov overflowing a ssize_t, but the new one doesn't have any problems with it so we failed this test with a case_clause error on 32-bit machines.
2017-11-30Stop using prim_file directly in test_serverJohn Högberg
Files opened with the file module are not guaranteed to work with prim_file, even when opened in raw mode.
2017-11-30get_cwd/1 on non-existent drives should error outJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Reads that draw from both buffer and file must workJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Fix incorrect assumption about process activityJohn Högberg
The tests assume that the most active process will be the current one, which is no longer true since the delayed_write option now uses a wrapper process for much of its work. The timeout for this test has been increased to account for the lack of delayed_write; 60s was enough for everything except the debug build on some machines.
2017-11-30Volume-relative paths must work on WindowsJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Operations on closed raw files should return EINVALJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Use lexemes/2 instead of the deprecated tokens/2John Högberg
2017-11-30Remove port subtest in qlc_SUITE:sortJohn Högberg
This subtest revolves around the possibility that the underlying port can be killed, which is nonsense now that the file suite no longer uses ports for anything.
2017-11-30Remove disk_log_SUITE:evilJohn Högberg
This test revolves around the possibility that the underlying port can be killed, which is nonsense now that the file suite no longer uses ports for anything.
2017-11-30Ensure that trailing slashes are ignored on list_dirJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Ensure that root paths are translated to our preferred formJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Tighten timings in delayed_writeJohn Högberg
The cumulative wait time was as long as the delay itself in the flush-on-size test, causing the test to pass because the write managed to time out.
2017-11-30pread/2 must always return a list of resultsJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Test opening raw files in the same manner as regular onesJohn Högberg
2017-11-30Add microbenchmarks for file:read/2 and file:write/2John Högberg
2017-11-30Account for new behavior in tests that touch prim_fileJohn Högberg
This also hides the module behind ?PRIM_FILE to make testing new implementations less painful.
2017-11-30Reimplement efile_drv as a dirty NIFJohn Högberg
This improves the latency of file operations as dirty schedulers are a bit more eager to run jobs than async threads, and use a single global queue rather than per-thread queues, eliminating the risk of a job stalling behind a long-running job on the same thread while other async threads sit idle. There's no such thing as a free lunch though; the lowered latency comes at the cost of increased busy-waiting which may have an adverse effect on some applications. This behavior can be tweaked with the +sbwt flag, but unfortunately it affects all types of schedulers and not just dirty ones. We plan to add type-specific flags at a later stage. sendfile has been moved to inet_drv to lessen the effect of a nasty race; the cooperation between inet_drv and efile has never been airtight and the socket dying at the wrong time (Regardless of reason) could result in fd aliasing. Moving it to the inet driver makes it impossible to trigger this by closing the socket in the middle of a sendfile operation, while still allowing it to be aborted -- something that can't be done if it stays in the file driver. The race still occurs if the controlling process dies in the short window between dispatching the sendfile operation and the dup(2) call in the driver, but it's much less likely to happen now. A proper fix is in the works. -- Notable functional differences: * The use_threads option for file:sendfile/5 no longer has any effect. * The file-specific DTrace probes have been removed. The same effect can be achieved with normal tracing together with the nif__entry/nif__return probes to track scheduling. -- OTP-14256
2017-11-30Add a mutable binary buffer type (prim_buffer)John Högberg
2017-11-30Stop trying to maximize the use of x(0)Björn Gustavsson
X register 0 used to be mapped to a hardware register, and therefore faster than the other registers. Because of that, the compiler tried to use x(0) as much as possible as a temporary register. That was changed a few releases ago. X register 0 is now placed in the array of all X registers and has no special speed advantage compared to the other registers. Remove the code in the compiler that attempts to use x(0) as much as possible. As a result, the following type of instruction will be much less frequent: {put_list,Src,{x,0},{x,0}} Instead, the following type of instruction will be more frequent: {put_list,Src,{x,X},{x,X}} (Where X is an arbitrary X register.) Update the runtime system to specialize that kind of put_list instruction.

2017-11-29v3_codegen: Remove check of operand for bs_context_to_binaryBjörn Gustavsson
The bs_context_to_binary instruction only allows a register operand. v3_codegen has a test to ensure that the operand is a register. That test is no longer necessary. There used to be a possibility that optimizations in sys_core_fold and the inliner could change the operand for bs_context_to_binary to a binary literal. Since 09112806c15a81b that can no longer happen, because no more optimizations are run after the introduction of the bs_context_to_binary instruction.
