Don't include package path when creating LSyms for auto and param
variables during Prog generation, and update the DWARF emit routine
accordingly (remove the code that chops off package path from names in
DWARF var location expressions). Implementation suggested by mdempsky@.
The intent of this change is to have saner location expressions in cases
where the variable corresponds to a structure field. For example, the
SSA compiler's "decompose" phase can take a slice value and break it
apart into three scalar variables corresponding to the fields (slice "X"
gets split into "X.len", "X.cap", "X.ptr"). In such cases we want the
name in the location expression to omit the package path but preserve
the original variable name (e.g. "X").

Currently, markroot delays scanning mark worker stacks until mark
termination by putting the mark worker G directly on the rescan list
when it encounters one during the mark phase. Without this, since mark
workers are non-preemptible, two mark workers that attempt to scan
each other's stacks can deadlock.
However, this is annoyingly asymmetric and causes some real problems.
First, markroot does not own the G at that point, so it's not
technically safe to add it to the rescan list. I haven't been able to
find a specific problem this could cause, but I suspect it's the root
cause of issue #17099. Second, this will interfere with the hybrid
barrier, since there is no stack rescanning during mark termination
with the hybrid barrier.
This commit switches to a different approach. We move the mark
worker's call to gcDrain to the system stack and set the mark worker's
status to _Gwaiting for the duration of the drain to indicate that
it's preemptible. This lets another mark worker scan its G stack while
the drain is running on the system stack. We don't return to the G
stack until we can switch back to _Grunning, which ensures we don't
race with a stack scan. This lets us eliminate the special case for
mark worker stack scans and scan them just like any other goroutine.
The only subtlety to this approach is that we have to disable stack
shrinking for mark workers; they could be referring to captured
variables from the G stack, so it's not safe to move their stacks.
Updates #17099 and #17503.

Currently reflectcall has a subtle dance with write barriers where the
assembly code copies the result values from the stack to the in-heap
argument frame without write barriers and then calls into the runtime
after the fact to invoke the necessary write barriers.
For the hybrid barrier (and for ROC), we need to switch to a
*pre*-write write barrier, which is very difficult to do with the
current setup. We could tie ourselves in knots of subtle reasoning
about why it's okay in this particular case to have a post-write write
barrier, but this commit instead takes a different approach. Rather
than making things more complex, this simplifies reflection calls so
that the argument copy is done in Go using normal bulk write barriers.
The one difficulty with this approach is that calling into Go requires
putting arguments on the stack, but the call* functions "donate" their
entire stack frame to the called function. We can get away with this
now because the copy avoids using the stack and has copied the results
out before we clobber the stack frame to call into the write barrier.
The solution in this CL is to call another function, passing arguments
in registers instead of on the stack, and let that other function
reserve more stack space and setup the arguments for the runtime.
This approach seemed to work out the best. I also tried making the
call* functions reserve 32 extra bytes of frame for the write barrier
arguments and adjust SP up by 32 bytes around the call. However, even
with the necessary changes to the assembler to correct the spdelta
table, the runtime was still having trouble with the frame layout (and
the changes to the assembler caused many other things that do strange
things with the SP to fail to assemble). The approach I took doesn't
require any funny business with the SP.

Currently sweeping walks the list of all spans, which means the work
in sweeping is proportional to the maximum number of spans ever used.
If the heap was once large but is now small, this causes an
amortization failure: on a small heap, GCs happen frequently, but a
full sweep still has to happen in each GC cycle, which means we spent
a lot of time in sweeping.
Fix this by creating a separate list consisting of just the in-use
spans to be swept, so sweeping is proportional to the number of in-use
spans (which is proportional to the live heap). Specifically, we
create two lists: a list of unswept in-use spans and a list of swept
in-use spans. At the start of the sweep cycle, the swept list becomes
the unswept list and the new swept list is empty. Allocating a new
in-use span adds it to the swept list. Sweeping moves spans from the
unswept list to the swept list.
This fixes the amortization problem because a shrinking heap moves
spans off the unswept list without adding them to the swept list,
reducing the time required by the next sweep cycle.
Updates #9265. This fix eliminates almost all of the time spent in
sweepone; however, markrootSpans has essentially the same bug, so now
the test program from this issue spends all of its time in
markrootSpans.

This commit fixes two bizarrely related bugs:
1. The signatures for the call* functions were wrong, indicating that
they had only two pointer arguments instead of three. We didn't notice
because the call* functions are defined by a macro expansion, which go
vet doesn't see.
2. deferArgs on a defer object with a zero-sized frame returned a
pointer just past the end of the allocated object, which is illegal in
Go (and can cause the "sweep increased allocation count" crashes).
In a fascinating twist, these two bugs canceled each other out, which
is why I'm fixing them together. The pointer returned by deferArgs is
used in only two ways: as an argument to memmove and as an argument to
reflectcall. memmove is NOSPLIT, so the argument was unobservable.
reflectcall immediately tail calls one of the call* functions, which
are not NOSPLIT, but the deferArgs pointer just happened to be the
third argument that was accidentally marked as a scalar. Hence, when
the garbage collector scanned the stack, it didn't see the bad
pointer as a pointer.
I believe this was all ultimately benign. In principle, stack growth
during the reflectcall could fail to update the args pointer, but it
never points to the stack, so it never needs to be updated. Also in
principle, the garbage collector could fail to mark the args object
because of the incorrect call* signatures, but in all calls to
reflectcall (including the ones spelled "call" in the reflect package)
the args object is kept live by the calling stack.

The pointer checking code needs to know the exact type of the parameter
expected by the C function, so that it can use a type assertion to
convert the empty interface returned by cgoCheckPointer to the correct
type. Previously this was done by using a type conversion, but that
meant that the code accepted arguments that were convertible to the
parameter type, rather than arguments that were assignable as in a
normal function call. In other words, some code that should not have
passed type checking was accepted.
This CL changes cgo to always use a function literal for pointer
checking. Now the argument is passed to the function literal, which has
the correct argument type, so type checking is performed just as for a
function call as it should be.
Since we now always use a function literal, simplify the checking code
to run as a statement by itself. It now no longer needs to return a
value, and we no longer need a type assertion.
This does have the cost of introducing another function call into any

checking.

getArgInfo for reflect.makeFuncStub and reflect.methodValueCall is
necessarily special. These have dynamically determined argument maps
that are stored in their context (that is, their *funcval). These
functions are written to store this context at 0(SP) when called, and
getArgInfo retrieves it from there.
This technique works if getArgInfo is passed an active call frame for
one of these functions. However, getArgInfo is also used in
tracebackdefers, where the "call" is not a true call with an active
stack frame, but a deferred call. In this situation, getArgInfo
currently crashes because tracebackdefers passes a frame with sp set
to 0. However, the entire approach used by getArgInfo is flawed in
this situation because the wrapper has not actually executed, and
hence hasn't saved this metadata to any stack frame.
In the defer case, we know the *funcval from the _defer itself, so we
can fix this by teaching getArgInfo to use the *funcval context
directly when its available, and otherwise get it from the active call
frame.
While we're here, this commit simplifies getArgInfo a bit by making it
play more nicely with the type system. Rather than decoding the
*reflect.methodValue that is the wrapper's context as a *[2]uintptr,

If morestack runs on the g0 or gsignal stack, it currently performs
some abort operation that typically produces a signal (e.g., it does
an INT $3 on x86). This is useful if you're running in a debugger, but
if you're not, the runtime tries to trap this signal, which is likely
to send the program into a deeper spiral of collapse and lead to very
confusing diagnostic output.
Help out people trying to debug without a debugger by making morestack
print an informative message before blowing up.

This improves the performance for byte.Compare by rewriting
the cmpbody function in runtime/asm_ppc64x.s. The previous code
had a simple loop which loaded a pair of bytes and compared them,
which is inefficient for long buffers. The updated function checks
for 8 or 32 byte chunks and then loads and compares double words where
possible.
Because the byte.Compare result indicates greater or less than,
the doubleword loads must take endianness into account, using a
byte reversed load in the little endian case.

This adds a //go:notinheap pragma for declarations of types that must
not be heap allocated. We ensure these rules by disallowing new(T),
make([]T), append([]T), or implicit allocation of T, by disallowing
conversions to notinheap types, and by propagating notinheap to any
struct or array that contains notinheap elements.
The utility of this pragma is that we can eliminate write barriers for
writes to pointers to go:notinheap types, since the write barrier is
guaranteed to be a no-op. This will let us mark several scheduler and
memory allocator structures as go:notinheap, which will let us
disallow write barriers in the scheduler and memory allocator much
more thoroughly and also eliminate some problematic hybrid write
barriers.
This also makes go:nowritebarrierrec and go:yeswritebarrierrec much
more powerful. Currently we use go:nowritebarrier all over the place,
but it's almost never what you actually want: when write barriers are
illegal, they're typically illegal for a whole dynamic scope. Partly
this is because go:nowritebarrier has been around longer, but it's
also because go:nowritebarrierrec couldn't be used in situations that
had no-op write barriers or where some nested scope did allow write
barriers. go:notinheap eliminates many no-op write barriers and
go:yeswritebarrierrec makes it possible to opt back in to write
barriers, so these two changes will let us use go:nowritebarrierrec
far more liberally.
This updates #13386, which is about controlling pointers from non-GC'd
memory to GC'd memory. That would require some additional pragma (or
pragmas), but could build on this pragma.

To compile:

instead of:
mapassign(maptype, m, &k, &v), do
do:
*mapassign(maptype, m, &k) = v
mapassign returns a pointer to the value slot in the map. It is just
like mapaccess except that it will allocate a new slot if k is not
already present in the map.
This makes map accesses faster but potentially larger (codewise).
It is faster because the write into the map is done when the compiler
knows the concrete type, so it can be done with a few store
instructions instead of calling typedmemmove. We also potentially
avoid stack temporaries to hold v.
The code can be larger when the map has pointers in its value type,
since there is a write barrier call in addition to the mapassign call.
That makes the code at the callsite a bit bigger (go binary is 0.3%
bigger).
This CL is in preparation for doing operations like m[k] += v with
only a single runtime call. That will roughly double the speed of
such operations.

ARM direct CALL/JMP instruction has 24 bit offset, which can only
encodes jumps within +/-32M. When the target is too far, the top
bits get truncated and the program jumps wild.
This CL detects too-far jumps and automatically insert trampolines,
currently only internal linking on ARM.
It is necessary to make the following changes to the linker:
- Resolve direct jump relocs when assigning addresses to functions.
this allows trampoline insertion without moving all code that
already laid down.
- Lay down packages in dependency order, so that when resolving a
inter-package direct jump reloc, the target address is already
known. Intra-package jumps are assumed never too far.
- a linker flag -debugtramp is added for debugging trampolines:
"-debugtramp=1 -v" prints trampoline debug message
"-debugtramp=2" forces all inter-package jump to use
trampolines (currently ARM only)
"-debugtramp=2 -v" does both
- Some data structures are changed for bookkeeping.
On ARM, pseudo DIV/DIVU/MOD/MODU instructions now clobber R8
(unfortunate). In the standard library there is no ARM assembly
code that uses these instructions, and the compiler no longer emits
them (CL 29390).
all.bash passes with -debugtramp=2, except a disassembly test (this
is unavoidable as we changed the instruction).
TBD: debug info of trampolines?

When GC is disabled, we set gcpercent to -1. However, we still use
gcpercent to compute several values, such as next_gc and gc_trigger.
These calculations are meaningless when gcpercent is -1 and result in
meaningless values. This is okay in a sense because we also never use
these values if gcpercent is -1, but they're confusing when exposed to
the user, for example via MemStats or the execution trace. It's
particularly unfortunate in the execution trace because it attempts to
plot the underflowed value of next_gc, which scales all useful
information in the heap row into oblivion.
Fix this by making next_gc ^0 when gcpercent < 0. This has the
advantage of being true in a way: next_gc is effectively infinite when
gcpercent < 0. We can also detect this special value when updating the
execution trace and report next_gc as 0 so it doesn't blow up the
display of the heap line.

This emulation was necessary before we had per-PC SP deltas,
since the traceback code assumed that the frame size was fixed
for the whole function, except on the first instruction where
it was 0. Since we now have per-PC SP deltas and PCDATA, we

emulation unnecessary.
This may be helpful for registerized calling convention, where
there may be unspills of arguments after calling morestack. It

Calling cgocallback from a signal handler can fail when using the race
detector. Calling cgocallback will lead to a call to newextram which
will call oneNewExtraM which will call racegostart. The racegostart
function will set up some race detector data structures, and doing that
will sometimes call the C memory allocator. If we are running the signal
handler from a signal that interrupted the C memory allocator, we will
crash or hang.
Instead, change the signal handler code to call needm and dropm. The
needm function will grab allocated m and g structures and initialize the
g to use the current stack--the signal stack. That is all we need to
safely call code that allocates memory and checks whether it needs to
split the stack. This may temporarily leave us with no m available to
run a cgo callback, but that is OK in this case since the code we call
will quickly either crash or call dropm to return the m.
Implementing this required changing some of the setSignalstackSP
functions to avoid a write barrier. These functions never need a write
barrier but in some cases generated one anyhow because on some systems
the ss_sp field is a pointer.

clock to CLOCK_REALTIME.
Prior to 10.0, the __umtx_op_wait* functions ignored the fourth argument
to _umtx_op (uaddr1), expected the fifth argument (uaddr2) to be a
struct timespec pointer, and used a monotonic clock (nanouptime(9)) for
timeout calculations.
Since 10.0, if callers want a clock other than CLOCK_REALTIME, they must
call _umtx_op with uaddr1 set to a value greater than sizeof(struct
timespec), and with uaddr2 as pointer to a struct _umtx_time, rather
than a timespec. Callers can set the _clockid field of the struct
_umtx_time to request the clock they want.

pay the cost of this defer for no typical benefit.
Amazingly, there is another defer on the cgocallback path also used

the first defer into the second, to reduce the cost of typical cgo

This reduces the overhead for a no-op cgo call significantly:

Change setsig, setsigstack, getsig, raise, raiseproc to take uint32 for
signal number parameter, as that is the type mostly used for signal
numbers. Same for dieFromSignal, sigInstallGoHandler, raisebadsignal.
Remove setsig restart parameter, as it is always either true or
irrelevant.
Don't check the handler in setsigstack, as the only caller does that
anyhow.
Don't bother to convert the handler from sigtramp to sighandler in
getsig, as it will never be called when the handler is sigtramp or
sighandler.
Don't check the return value from rt_sigaction in the GNU/Linux version
of setsigstack; no other setsigstack checks it, and it never fails.

This change replaces the use of CryptGenRandom with RtlGenRandom in
Windows to generate cryptographically random numbers during process
startup. RtlGenRandom uses the same RNG as CryptGenRandom, but it has many
fewer DLL dependencies and so does not affect process startup time as
much.
This makes running simple Go program on my computers faster.

The OS-independent sigmask type was not pulling its weight. Replace it
with the OS-dependent sigset type. This requires adding an OS-specific
sigaddset function, but permits removing the OS-specific sigmaskToSigset
function.

The SetFinalizer documentation states that
"The argument obj must be a pointer to an object allocated by calling
new or by taking the address of a composite literal."
which precludes pointers to local variables. According to a comment
on #6591, this case is expected to work. This CL updates the documentation
for SetFinalizer accordingly.

This optimizes deferproc and deferreturn in various ways.
The most important optimization is that it more carefully arranges to
prevent preemption or stack growth. Currently we do this by switching
to the system stack on every deferproc and every deferreturn. While we
need to be on the system stack for the slow path of allocating and
freeing defers, in the common case we can fit in the nosplit stack.
Hence, this change pushes the system stack switch down into the slow
paths and makes everything now exposed to the user stack nosplit. This
also eliminates the need for various acquirem/releasem pairs, since we
are now preventing preemption by preventing stack split checks.
As another smaller optimization, we special case the common cases of
zero-sized and pointer-sized defer frames to respectively skip the
copy and perform the copy in line instead of calling memmove.
This speeds up the runtime defer benchmark by 42%:
name old time/op new time/op delta
Defer-4 75.1ns ± 1% 43.3ns ± 1% -42.31% (p=0.000 n=8+10)
In reality, this speeds up defer by about 2.2X. The two benchmarks
below compare a Lock/defer Unlock pair (DeferLock) with a Lock/Unlock
pair (NoDeferLock). NoDeferLock establishes a baseline cost, so these
two benchmarks together show that this change reduces the overhead of
defer from 61.4ns to 27.9ns.
name old time/op new time/op delta
DeferLock-4 77.4ns ± 1% 43.9ns ± 1% -43.31% (p=0.000 n=10+10)
NoDeferLock-4 16.0ns ± 0% 15.9ns ± 0% -0.39% (p=0.000 n=9+8)
This also shaves 34ns off cgo calls:
name old time/op new time/op delta
CgoNoop-4 122ns ± 1% 88.3ns ± 1% -27.72% (p=0.000 n=8+9)

We used to compute an estimate of the reachable heap size that was
different from the marked heap size. This ultimately caused more
problems than it solved, so we pulled it out, but memstats still has
both heap_reachable and heap_marked, and there are some leftover TODOs
about the problems with this estimate.
Clean this up by eliminating heap_reachable in favor of heap_marked
and deleting the stale TODOs.

Back in Go 1.4, memstats.next_gc was both the heap size at which GC
would trigger, and the size GC kept the heap under. When we switched
to concurrent GC in Go 1.5, we got somewhat confused and made this
variable the trigger heap size, while gcController.heapGoal became the
goal heap size.
memstats.next_gc is exposed to the user via MemStats.NextGC, while
gcController.heapGoal is not. This is unfortunate because 1) the heap
goal is far more useful for diagnostics, and 2) the trigger heap size
is just part of the GC trigger heuristic, which means it wouldn't be
useful to an application even if it tried to use it.
We never noticed this mess because MemStats.NextGC is practically
undocumented. Now that we're trying to document MemStats, it became
clear that this field had diverged from its original usefulness.
Clean up this mess by shuffling things back around so that next_gc is
the goal heap size and the new (unexposed) memstats.gc_trigger field
is the trigger heap size. This eliminates gcController.heapGoal.
Updates #15849.
