Michael Anthony Knyszek 55ec5182d7 runtime: remove scavAddr in favor of address ranges
This change removes the concept of s.scavAddr in favor of explicitly
reserving and unreserving address ranges. s.scavAddr has several
problems with raciness that can cause the scavenger to miss updates, or
move it back unnecessarily, forcing future scavenge calls to iterate
over searched address space unnecessarily.

This change achieves this by replacing scavAddr with a second addrRanges
which is cloned from s.inUse at the end of each sweep phase. Ranges from
this second addrRanges are then reserved by scavengers (with the
reservation size proportional to the heap size) who are then able to
safely iterate over those ranges without worry of another scavenger
coming in.

Fixes #35788.

Michael Anthony Knyszek 8ac98e7b3f runtime: add scavtrace debug flag and remove scavenge info from gctrace
Currently, scavenging information is printed if the gctrace debug
variable is >0. Scavenging information is also printed naively, for
every page scavenged, resulting in a lot of noise when the typical
expectation for GC trace is one line per GC.

This change adds a new GODEBUG flag called scavtrace which prints
scavenge information roughly once per GC cycle and removes any scavenge
information from gctrace. The exception is debug.FreeOSMemory, which may
force an additional line to be printed.

Fixes #32952.

Cherry Zhang af8f4062c2 runtime: scan gp._panic in stack scan
In runtime.gopanic, the _panic object p is stack allocated and
referenced from gp._panic. With stack objects, p on stack is dead
at the point preprintpanics runs. gp._panic points to p, but
stack scan doesn't look at gp. Heap scan of gp does look at
gp._panic, but it stops and ignores the pointer as it points to
the stack. So whatever p points to may be collected and clobbered.
We need to scan gp._panic explicitly during stack scan.

To test it reliably, we introduce a GODEBUG mode "clobberfree",
which clobbers the memory content when the GC frees an object.

Fixes #30150.

Keith Randall 69c2c56453 cmd/compile,runtime: redo mid-stack inlining tracebacks
Work involved in getting a stack trace is divided between
runtime.Callers and runtime.CallersFrames.

Before this CL, runtime.Callers returns a pc per runtime frame.
runtime.CallersFrames is responsible for expanding a runtime frame
into potentially multiple user frames.

After this CL, runtime.Callers returns a pc per user frame.
runtime.CallersFrames just maps those to user frame info.

Entries in the result of runtime.Callers are now pcs
of the calls (or of the inline marks), not of the instruction
just after the call.

Keith Randall 13baf4b2cd cmd/compile: encourage inlining of functions with single-call bodies
This is a simple tweak to allow a bit more mid-stack inlining.
In cases like this:

func f() {
    g()
}

We'd really like to inline f into its callers. It can't hurt.

We implement this optimization by making calls a bit cheaper, enough
to afford a single call in the function body, but not 2.
The remaining budget allows for some argument modification, or perhaps
a wrapping conditional:

func f(x int) {
    g(x, 0)
}
func f(x int) {
    if x > 0 {
        g()
    }

Austin Clements edc2d17086 runtime: remove GODEBUG=gctrace=2 mode
It turns out if you set GODEBUG=gctrace=2, it enables an obscure
debugging mode that, in addition to printing gctrace statistics, also
does a second STW GC following each regular GC. This debugging mode
has long since lost its value (you could maybe use it to analyze
floating garbage, except that we don't print the gctrace line on the
second GC), and it interferes substantially with the operation of the
GC by messing up the statistics used to schedule GCs.

It's also a source of mark termination GC work when we're in
concurrent GC mode, so it's going to interfere with eliminating mark
2. And it's going to get in the way of unifying STW and concurrent GC.

This CL removes this debugging mode.

Austin Clements 032678e0fb runtime: don't elide wrapper functions that call panic or at TOS
CL 45412 started hiding autogenerated wrapper functions from call
stacks so that call stack semantics better matched language semantics.
This is based on the theory that the wrapper function will call the
"real" function and all the programmer knows about is the real
function.

However, this theory breaks down in two cases:

1. If the wrapper is at the top of the stack, then it didn't call
   anything. This can happen, for example, if the "stack" was actually
   synthesized by the user.

2. If the wrapper panics, for example by calling panicwrap or by
   dereferencing a nil pointer, then it didn't call the wrapped
   function and the user needs to see what panicked, even if we can't
   attribute it nicely.

This commit modifies the traceback logic to include the wrapper
function in both of these cases.

Fixes #22231.

Austin Clements 0efc8b2188 runtime: avoid repeated findmoduledatap calls
Currently almost every function that deals with a *_func has to first
look up the *moduledata for the module containing the function's entry
point. This means we almost always do at least two identical module
lookups whenever we deal with a *_func (one to get the *_func and
another to get something from its module data) and sometimes several
more.

Fix this by making findfunc return a new funcInfo type that embeds
*_func, but also includes the *moduledata, and making all of the
functions that currently take a *_func instead take a funcInfo and use
the already-found *moduledata.

This transformation is trivial for the most part, since the *_func
type is usually inferred. The annoying part is that we can no longer
use nil to indicate failure, so this introduces a funcInfo.valid()
method and replaces nil checks with calls to valid.

Austin Clements bd640c882a runtime: disable stack rescanning by default
With the hybrid barrier in place, we can now disable stack rescanning
by default. This commit adds a "gcrescanstacks" GODEBUG variable that
is off by default but can be set to re-enable STW stack rescanning.
The plan is to leave this off but available in Go 1.8 for debugging
and as a fallback.

With this change, worst-case mark termination time at GOMAXPROCS=12
*not* including time spent stopping the world (which is still
unbounded) is reliably under 100 µs, with a 95%ile around 50 µs in
every benchmark I tried (the go1 benchmarks, the x/benchmarks garbage
benchmark, and the gcbench activegs and rpc benchmarks). Including
time spent stopping the world usually adds about 20 µs to total STW
time at GOMAXPROCS=12, but I've seen it add around 150 µs in these
benchmarks when a goroutine takes time to reach a safe point (see
issue #10958) or when stopping the world races with goroutine
switches. At GOMAXPROCS=1, where this isn't an issue, worst case STW
is typically 30 µs.

The go-gcbench activegs benchmark is designed to stress large numbers
of dirty stacks. This commit reduces 95%ile STW time for 500k dirty
stacks by nearly three orders of magnitude, from 150ms to 195µs.

This has little effect on the throughput of the go1 benchmarks or the
x/benchmarks benchmarks.

still be set to re-enable the rescan lists.

Ian Lance Taylor be1ef46775 runtime: add optional expensive check for invalid cgo pointer passing
If you set GODEBUG=cgocheck=2 the runtime package will use the write
barrier to detect cases where a Go program writes a Go pointer into
non-Go memory.  In conjunction with the existing cgo checks, and the
not-yet-implemented cgo check for exported functions, this should
reliably detect all cases (that do not import the unsafe package) in
which a Go pointer is incorrectly shared with C code.  This check is
optional because it turns on the write barrier at all times, which is
known to be expensive.

Update #12416.

Russ Cox 1635ab7dfe runtime: remove wbshadow mode
The write barrier shadow heap was very useful for
developing the write barriers initially, but it's no longer used,
clunky, and dragging the rest of the implementation down.

The gccheckmark mode will find bugs due to missed barriers
when they result in missed marks; wbshadow mode found the
missed barriers more aggressively, but it required an entire
separate copy of the heap. The gccheckmark mode requires
no extra memory, making it more useful in practice.

Matthew Dempsky 3c8a89daf3 runtime: simplify CPU profiling code
This makes Go's CPU profiling code somewhat more idiomatic; e.g.,
using := instead of forward declaring variables, using "int" for
element counts instead of "uintptr", and slices instead of C-style
pointer+length.  This makes the code easier to read and eliminates a
lot of type conversion clutter.

Additionally, in sigprof we can collect just maxCPUProfStack stack
frames, as cpuprof won't use more than that anyway.

Austin Clements 654297cb02 runtime: add GODEBUG=gccheckmark=0/1
Previously, gccheckmark could only be enabled or disabled by calling
runtime.GCcheckmarkenable/GCcheckmarkdisable.  This was a necessary
hack because GODEBUG was broken.

Now that GODEBUG works again, move control over gccheckmark to a
GODEBUG variable and remove these runtime functions.  Currently,
gccheckmark is enabled by default (and will probably remain so for
much of the 1.5 development cycle).

Russ Cox dcec123a49 runtime: add GODEBUG wbshadow for finding missing write barriers
This is the detection code. It works well enough that I know of
a handful of missing write barriers. However, those are subtle
enough that I'll address them in separate followup CLs.

GODEBUG=wbshadow=1 checks for a write that bypassed the
write barrier at the next write barrier of the same word.
If a bug can be detected in this mode it is typically easy to
understand, since the crash says quite clearly what kind of
word has missed a write barrier.

GODEBUG=wbshadow=2 adds a check of the write barrier
shadow copy during garbage collection. Bugs detected at
garbage collection can be difficult to understand, because
there is no context for what the found word means.
Typically you have to reproduce the problem with allocfreetrace=1
in order to understand the type of the badly updated word.

Russ Cox 656be317d0 [dev.cc] runtime: delete scalararg, ptrarg; rename onM to systemstack
Scalararg and ptrarg are not "signal safe".
Go code filling them out can be interrupted by a signal,
and then the signal handler runs, and if it also ends up
in Go code that uses scalararg or ptrarg, now the old
values have been smashed.
For the pieces of code that do need to run in a signal handler,
we introduced onM_signalok, which is really just onM
except that the _signalok is meant to convey that the caller
asserts that scalarg and ptrarg will be restored to their old
values after the call (instead of the usual behavior, zeroing them).

Scalararg and ptrarg are also untyped and therefore error-prone.

Go code can always pass a closure instead of using scalararg
and ptrarg; they were only really necessary for C code.
And there's no more C code.

For all these reasons, delete scalararg and ptrarg, converting
the few remaining references to use closures.

Once those are gone, there is no need for a distinction between
onM and onM_signalok, so replace both with a single function
equivalent to the current onM_signalok (that is, it can be called
on any of the curg, g0, and gsignal stacks).

The name onM and the phrase 'm stack' are misnomers,
because on most system an M has two system stacks:
the main thread stack and the signal handling stack.

Correct the misnomer by naming the replacement function systemstack.

Fix a few references to "M stack" in code.

The main motivation for this change is to eliminate scalararg/ptrarg.
Rick and I have already seen them cause problems because
the calling sequence m.ptrarg[0] = p is a heap pointer assignment,
so it gets a write barrier. The write barrier also uses onM, so it has
all the same problems as if it were being invoked by a signal handler.
We worked around this by saving and restoring the old values
and by calling onM_signalok, but there's no point in keeping this nice
home for bugs around any longer.

This CL also changes funcline to return the file name as a result
instead of filling in a passed-in *string. (The *string signature is
left over from when the code was written in and called from C.)
That's arguably an unrelated change, except that once I had done
the ptrarg/scalararg/onM cleanup I started getting false positives
about the *string argument escaping (not allowed in package runtime).
The compiler is wrong, but the easiest fix is to write the code like
Go code instead of like C code. I am a bit worried that the compiler
is wrong because of some use of uninitialized memory in the escape
analysis. If that's the reason, it will go away when we convert the
compiler to Go. (And if not, we'll debug it the next time.)
