The memory sanitizer (msan) is a nice compiler feature that can
dynamically check for memory errors in C code. It's not useful for Go
code, since Go is memory safe. But it is useful to be able to use the
memory sanitizer on C code that is linked into a Go program via cgo.
Without this change it does not work, as msan considers memory passed
from Go to C as uninitialized.
To make this work, change the runtime to call the C mmap function when
using cgo. When using msan the mmap call will be intercepted and marked
as returning initialized memory.
Work around what appears to be an msan bug by calling malloc before we
call mmap.

In the past badsignal would crash the program. In
https://golang.org/cl/10757044 badsignal was changed to call sigsend,
to fix issue #3250. The effect of this was that when a non-Go thread
received a signal, and os/signal.Notify was not being used to check
for occurrences of the signal, the signal was ignored.
This changes the code so that if os/signal.Notify is not being used,
then the signal handler is reset to what it was, and the signal is
raised again. This lets non-Go threads handle the signal as they
wish. In particular, it means that a segmentation violation in a
non-Go thread will ordinarily crash the process, as it should.
Fixes#10139.
Update #11794.

Forward signals to signal handlers installed before Go installs its own,
under certain circumstances. In particular, as iant@ suggests, signals are
forwarded iff:
(1) a non-SIG_DFL signal handler existed before Go, and
(2) signal is synchronous (i.e., one of SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, SIGFPE), and
(3a) signal occured on a non-Go thread, or
(3b) signal occurred on a Go thread but in CGo code.
Supported only on Linux, for now.

There is an assumption that the function executed in child thread
created by runtime.close should not return. And different systems
enforce that differently: some exit that thread, some exit the
whole process.
The test TestNewOSProc0 introduced in CL 9161 breaks that assumption,
so we need to adjust the code to only exit the thread should the
called function return.

We initially added clone0 to handle the case when G or M don't exist, but
it turns out that we could have just modified clone. (It also helps that
the function we're invoking in clone0 no longer needs arguments.)
As a side-effect, newosproc0 is now supported on all linux archs.

This is Part 2 of the change, see Part 1 here: in https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/7692/
Suggested by iant@, we use the library initialization entry point to:
- create a new OS thread and run the "regular" runtime init stack on
that thread
- return immediately from the main (i.e., loader) thread
- at the first CGO invocation, we wait for the runtime initialization
to complete.
The above mechanism is implemented only on linux_amd64. Next step is to
support it on linux_arm. Other platforms don't yet support shared library
compiling/linking, but we intend to use the same strategy there as well.

For OSes that use elf on intel, 2*Ptrsize bytes are reserved for TLS.
But only one pointer (g) has been stored in the TLS for a while now.
So we can set it to just Ptrsize, which happily matches what happens
when externally linking.

Any place that clobbers BP in the runtime can potentially interfere
with frame pointer unwinding with GOEXPERIMENT=framepointer. This
change eliminates uses of BP in the runtime to address this problem.
We have spare registers everywhere this occurs, so there's no downside
to eliminating BP. Where possible, this uses the same new register as
the amd64p32 runtime, which doesn't use BP due to restrictions placed
on it by NaCL.
One nice side effect of this is that it will let perf/VTune unwind the
call stack even through a call to systemstack, which will let us get
really good call graphs from the garbage collector.

Normally, a panic/throw only shows the thread stack for the current thread
and all paused goroutines. Goroutines running on other threads, or other threads
running on their system stacks, are opaque. Change that when GODEBUG=crash,
by passing a SIGQUIT around to all the threads when GODEBUG=crash.
If this works out reasonably well, we might make the SIGQUIT relay part of
the standard panic/throw death, perhaps eliding idle m's.

The main change is that #include "zasm_GOOS_GOARCH.h"
is now #include "go_asm.h" and/or #include "go_tls.h".
Also, because C StackGuard is now Go _StackGuard,
the assembly name changes from const_StackGuard to
const__StackGuard.
In asm_$GOARCH.s, add new function getg, formerly
implemented in C.
The renamed atomics now have Go wrappers, to get
escape analysis annotations right. Those wrappers
are in CL 174860043.

I removed support for jumping between functions years ago,
as part of doing the instruction layout for each function separately.
Given that, it makes sense to treat labels as function-scoped.
This lets each function have its own 'loop' label, for example.
Makes the assembly much cleaner and removes the last
reason anyone would reach for the 123(PC) form instead.
Note that this is on the dev.power64 branch, but it changes all
the assemblers. The change will ship in Go 1.5 (perhaps after
being ported into the new assembler).
