* Fix purge of codeRickard Green2016-08-291-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ensure that we cannot get any dangling pointers into code that has been purged. This is done by a two phase purge. At first phase all fun entries pointing into the code to purge are marked for purge. All processes trying to call these funs will be suspended and by this we avoid getting new direct references into the code. When all processes has been checked, these processes are resumed. The new purge strategy now also completely ignore the existence of indirect references to the code (funs). If such exist, they will cause bad fun exceptions to the caller, but will not prevent a soft purge or cause a kill of a process having such live references during a hard purge. This since it is impossible to give any guarantees that no processes in the system have such indirect references. Even when the system is completely clean from such references, new ones can appear via distribution and/or disk.

* | configure: Remove obsolete --enable-darwin-* optionsBjörn Gustavsson2016-03-171-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the options: --enable-darwin-universal --enable-darwin-64bit The --enable-darwin-universal option turns on universal binaries (Intel/PPC). It does not work on modern releases of OS X, and OTP 19 will most not likely build on an OS X release that still supports universal builds. The --enable-darwin-64bit option is not needed, because 64-bit builds are default on modern OS X releases. There is also the generic --enable-m64-build option.

| * | Improve ethread atomics based on GCC builtinsRickard Green2015-01-141-17/+28
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Use of __atomic builtins when available. * Improved configure test that checks for missing memory barrier in __sync_synchronize(). The old approach was to verify known working gcc versions and check gcc version at compile time. Besides not being very safe, the old approach often unnecessarily caused usage of the very expensive workaround. * Introduced (no overhead) workaround for missing clobber in __sync_synchronize() when using buggy LLVM implementation of __sync_synchronize(). * Implement native memory barriers for ARM processors supporting the DMB instruction. * Use of volatile store on Alpha as atomic set operation if no __atomic_store_n() is available (already used on x86/x86_64 Sparc V9, PowerPC, and MIPS). Fallback used when not using volatile store is typically very expensive. * Use volatile load on Alpha and ARM as atomic read operation if no __atomic_load_n() is available (already used on x86/x86_64 Sparc V9, PowerPC, and MIPS). Fallback when not using volatile load is typically very expensive.
