From 39072836944d00c288beebfd98b14593f9609006 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Magnus=20L=C3=A5ng?= Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 17:38:54 +0200 Subject: Add a loader state for HiPE code loading 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. --- bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin/hipe_unified_loader.beam | Bin 12548 -> 12528 bytes 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) (limited to 'bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin') diff --git a/bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin/hipe_unified_loader.beam b/bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin/hipe_unified_loader.beam index f560389756..9877283cd2 100644 Binary files a/bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin/hipe_unified_loader.beam and b/bootstrap/lib/kernel/ebin/hipe_unified_loader.beam differ -- cgit v1.2.3
