Erlang作为一门FP语言,和传统的语言结构一样, 有模块, 有函数, 有语句, 有判断, 有循环, 还有特别的模式匹配。 那么这些在底层是如何运作的。 我在底下给大家做个简单的实验,让大家一窥内部的细节,让大家写码的时候知道个大概。

erlang的VM作为register based的VM, 大概有400条指令.指令分为hot, normal, cold 3大类别。beam_emu.c是vm的实现,hot和cold指令在编译的时候 由脚本生成的,include到beam_emu去的。 hot是热门的操作如list, tuple操作, cold的就是比较偏的指令。

erlang的编译器支持生成汇编码, 让我们的研究成可能,具体用法是 erlc +”‘S'” m.erl
会生成m.S 这个汇编文件.

root@nd-desktop:~# cat gram.erl
-module(gram).
-export([start/1]).

start([X])->
   %% bif
    X1 = list_to_integer(atom_to_list(X)),

%% list
    W =[1,2,3],
    W1 = [4|W],

    K=[W1,9],

    %% constant fold
    A = 1 + 2,
   
  %% if
    B =
        if X1 + A > 0 -> 5;
           true -> 4
        end,

   %% case
    C =
    case B of
        {x, T} -> T;
        5 -> a1;
        3 -> a2;
        2 -> 1.0;
        other -> 2;
        true -> 3
    end,

   %% receive
    D =
    receive
        a1 ->
            2 + 1.2;
        2 -> 3;
        {tag, N}->N;
        a2 -> 5;
        _ -> ok
    after A ->
            timeout
    end,
   
    %% anon fun
    E = fun (1)-> D;
            (x)-> 2;
            (y)-> C;
            (<<"12">>)->1;
            (_) -> error
            end,

    F = E(D),

    %% fun
    G = f(B),

    io:format("~p~p~p~p~n",[F, G,W,K]),

    done.


f(1)-> 1;
f(2) ->2;
f(3) ->3;
f(4) ->4;
f(5) ->5;
f(x1) ->1;
f(x2) ->2;
f(x3) ->3;
f(x4) ->4;
f(x5) ->5;
f({x,1}) -> 1;
f({x,2}) ->2;
f({x,3}) ->3;
f({x,4}) ->4;
f({x,5}) ->5;
f(<<1:8, X:32, "xyz", F/float>>) -> {X, F};
f(_) -> err.

%%这2个函数是complier要硬性加上去的

{function, module_info, 0, 35}.
  {label,34}.
    {func_info,{atom,gram},{atom,module_info},0}.
  {label,35}.
    {move,{atom,gram},{x,0}}.
    {call_ext_only,1,{extfunc,erlang,get_module_info,1}}.


{function, module_info, 1, 37}.
  {label,36}.
    {func_info,{atom,gram},{atom,module_info},1}.
  {label,37}.
    {move,{x,0},{x,1}}.
    {move,{atom,gram},{x,0}}.
    {call_ext_only,2,{extfunc,erlang,get_module_info,2}}.

%%匿名函数的命名
{function, '-start/1-fun-0-', 3, 39}.
  {label,38}.
    {func_info,{atom,gram},{atom,'-start/1-fun-0-'},3}.
  {label,39}.
    {test,bs_start_match2,{f,40},3,[{x,0},0],{x,0}}.
    {test,bs_match_string,{f,44},[{x,0},16,{string,"12"}]}.
    {test,bs_test_tail2,{f,44},[{x,0},0]}.
    %% bitstring的代码很优化。
    {move,{integer,1},{x,0}}.
    return.
  {label,40}.
    {test,is_atom,{f,43},[{x,0}]}.
    {select_val,{x,0},{f,44},{list,[{atom,y},{f,41},{atom,x},{f,42}]}}.
   %% 一类的数据放在一起 用二分查找匹配
  {label,41}.
    {move,{x,1},{x,0}}.
    return.
  {label,42}.
    {move,{integer,2},{x,0}}.
    return.
  {label,43}.
    {test,is_eq_exact,{f,44},[{x,0},{integer,1}]}.
    {move,{x,2},{x,0}}.
    return.
  {label,44}.
    {move,{atom,error},{x,0}}.
    return.

所以无论函数match, 表达式match在vm层面都是if else这样的判断。从这个角度来讲if, case这些都只是erlang的语法糖。事实上也是,这些语法都是后来添加的,取悦用户的。

函数匹配是erlang的所有事情的核心。

结论:erlang的compiler很智能,这个VM和lua的非常像, 效率也相当。

    现在很少有人去纠结语言的本质了,因为人们总是自以为聪明的去判定什么有用什么没用,实不知潜意识里 只是为自己的怠惰找借口罢了

    总之
    高手寂寞 曲高和寡 共勉

    有用没用,好奇点就行了。
