This CL extends cmd/yacc to expose a yyErrorVerbose variable that
changes the error messages from just "syntax error" to "syntax error:
unexpected ${tokname}".
It also moves the yyToknames table generation to after rules have been
processed so that entries can be generated for tokens that aren't
mentioned in the preamble (e.g., '.' in the case of go.y).
Lastly, it restores gc's old code for applying yytfix to yyToknames,
except that substituting "LLITERAL" with litbuf happens in Yyerror.

The original implementation used 16 int "words" but only 29 bits per word
for a total of 16*29 = 464 bits, with a space consumption of 16*64 = 1024
bits on a 64 bit machine. Switching to 512 bits increases precision while
still using (in the worst case) half the amount of memory per mp value on
a 64 bit machine.
Also: Decreased permitted number of least-significant mantissa bits which
may be incorrect when considering if a precise floating-point constant is
an integer from 29 to 16 bits.

On arm64, CMP $foo, R is encoded as from=$foo, reg=R, not as from=$foo,
to=R. The progtable entry for ACMP incorrectly described the latter
form. Because of this, the registerizer was not accounting the registers
used in CMP instructions and was incorrectly re-assigning those registers.
This was an old problem, but it only became apparent after b115c35
(cmd/internal/gc: move cgen, regalloc, et al to portable code). Previous
to this commit, the compiler used a slightly larger register set for the
temps than it used for register variables. Since it had plenty registers
dedicated to temps, the registers used in CMP instruction never clashed
with registers assigned to register variables.

Currently we always create context objects for closures that capture variables.
However, it is completely unnecessary for direct calls of closures
(whether it is func()(), defer func()() or go func()()).
This change transforms any OCALLFUNC(OCLOSURE) to normal function call.
Closed variables become function arguments.
This transformation is especially beneficial for go func(),
because we do not need to allocate context object on heap.
But it makes direct closure calls a bit faster as well (see BenchmarkClosureCall).
On implementation level it required to introduce yet another compiler pass.
However, the pass iterates only over xtop, so it should not be an issue.
Transformation consists of two parts: closure transformation and call site
transformation. We can't run these parts on different sides of escape analysis,
because tree state is inconsistent. We can do both parts during typecheck,
we don't know how to capture variables and don't have call site.
We can't do both parts during walk of OCALLFUNC, because we can walk
OCLOSURE body earlier.
So now capturevars pass only decides how to capture variables
(this info is required for escape analysis). New transformclosure
pass, that runs just before order/walk, does all transformations
of a closure. And later walk of OCALLFUNC(OCLOSURE) transforms call site.

Consider an interface value i of type I and concrete value c of type C.
Prior to this CL, i==c was evaluated as
I(c) == i
Evaluating I(c) can allocate.
This CL changes the evaluation of i==c to
x, ok := i.(C); ok && x == c
The new generated code is shorter and does not allocate directly.
If C is small, as it is in every instance in the stdlib,
the new code also uses less stack space
and makes one runtime call instead of two.
If C is very large, the original implementation is used.
The cutoff for "very large" is 1<<16,
following the stack vs heap cutoff used elsewhere.

mostly in the net and os packages.

The compiler has a phase ordering problem. Escape analysis runs
before wrapper generation. When a generated wrapper calls a method
defined in a different package, if that call is inlined, there will be
no escape information for the variables defined in the inlined call.
Those variables will be placed on the stack, which fails if they
actually do escape.
There are probably various complex ways to fix this. This is a simple
way to avoid it: when a generated wrapper calls a method defined in a
different package, treat all local variables as escaping.

Gccgo creates a struct to hold the arguments for the deferred

function for this struct, and it implemented that function by calling
the equality function for the type defined in the other package.
Since that type is not exported, the reference to the equality
function failed at link time. Normally it is impossible for a struct

for a few reasons, so we added a cache of recently used sudogs
to keep allocation cheap. But we didn't add any of the necessary
cleanup before adding a SudoG to the new cache, and so the cached
SudoGs had stale pointers inside them that have caused all sorts
of awful, hard to debug problems.
CL 155760043 made sure SudoG.elem is cleaned up.

This CL makes sure SudoG.next, SudoG.prev, and SudoG.waitlink
are cleaned up. I should have done this when I did the other two
fields; instead I wasted a week tracking down a leak they caused.
A dangling SudoG.waitlink can point into a sudogcache list that
has been "forgotten" in order to let the GC collect it, but that
dangling .waitlink keeps the list from being collected.
And then the list holding the SudoG with the dangling waitlink
can find itself in the same situation, and so on. We end up
with lists of lists of unusable SudoGs that are still linked into
the object graph and never collected (given the right mix of
non-trivial selects and non-channel synchronization).

unaltered. For the callers, the PC is the return address,
which might be on the line after the call; we subtract 1

Traceback is now used for a variety of things, and for

whether from getcallerpc, or gp->sched.pc, or gp->syscallpc.
In those cases, we need to subtract 1 from this initial PC,

The introduction of temporaries in order.c was not
quite right for two corner cases:
1) The rewrite that pushed new variables on the lhs of
a receive into the body of the case was dropping the
declaration of the variables. If the variables escape,
the declaration is what allocates them.
Caught by escape analysis sanity check.
In fact the declarations should move into the body
always, so that we only allocate if the corresponding
case is selected. Do that. (This is an optimization that
was already present in Go 1.2. The new order code just
made it stop working.)

Globals, function arguments, and results are special cases in
registerization.
Globals must be flushed aggressively, because nearly any
operation can cause a panic, and the recovery code must see
the latest values. Globals also must be loaded aggressively,
because nearly any store through a pointer might be updating a
global: the compiler cannot see all the "address of"
operations on globals, especially exported globals. To
accomplish this, mark all globals as having their address
taken, which effectively disables registerization.
If a function contains a defer statement, the function results
must be flushed aggressively, because nearly any operation can
cause a panic, and the deferred code may call recover, causing
the original function to return the current values of its
function results. To accomplish this, mark all function
results as having their address taken if the function contains
any defer statements. This causes not just aggressive flushing
but also aggressive loading. The aggressive loading is
overkill but the best we can do in the current code.
Function arguments must be considered live at all safe points
in a function, because garbage collection always preserves
them: they must be up-to-date in order to be preserved
correctly. Accomplish this by marking them live at all call
sites. An earlier attempt at this marked function arguments as
having their address taken, which disabled registerization
completely, making programs slower. This CL's solution allows
registerization while preserving safety. The benchmark speedup
is caused by being able to registerize again (the earlier CL
lost the same amount).

The inputs to a function are marked live at all times in the
liveness bitmaps, so that the garbage collector will not free
the things they point at and reuse the pointers, so that the
pointers shown in stack traces are guaranteed not to have
been recycled.
Unfortunately, no one told the register optimizer that the
inputs need to be preserved at all call sites. If a function
is done with a particular input value, the optimizer will stop
preserving it across calls. For single-word values this just
means that the value recorded might be stale. For multi-word
values like slices, the value recorded could be only partially stale:
it can happen that, say, the cap was updated but not the len,
or that the len was updated but not the base pointer.
Either of these possibilities (and others) would make the
garbage collector misinterpret memory, leading to memory
corruption.
This came up in a real program, in which the garbage collector's
'slice len ≤ slice cap' check caught the inconsistency.

This is joint work with Daniel Morsing.
In order for the register allocator to alias two variables, they must have the same width, stack offset, and etype. Code generation was altering a variable's etype in a few places. This prevented the variable from being moved to a register, which in turn prevented peephole optimization. This failure to alias was very common, with almost 23,000 instances just running make.bash.
This phenomenon was not visible in the register allocation debug output because the variables that failed to alias had the same name. The debugging-only change to bits.c fixes this by printing the variable number with its name.
This CL fixes the source of all etype mismatches for 6g, all but one case for 8g, and depressingly few cases for 5g. (I believe that extending CL 6819083 to 5g is a prerequisite.) Fixing the remaining cases in 8g and 5g is work for the future.
The etype mismatch fixes are:
* [gc] Slicing changed the type of the base pointer into a uintptr in order to perform arithmetic on it. Instead, support addition directly on pointers.
* [*g] OSPTR was giving type uintptr to slice base pointers; undo that. This arose, for example, while compiling copy(dst, src).
* [8g] 64 bit float conversion was assigning int64 type during codegen, overwriting the existing uint64 type.
Note that some etype mismatches are appropriate, such as a struct with a single field or an array with a single element.
With these fixes, the number of registerizations that occur while running make.bash for 6g increases ~10%. Hello world binary size shrinks ~1.5%. Running all benchmarks in the standard library show performance improvements ranging from nominal to substantive (>10%); a full comparison using 6g on my laptop is available at https://gist.github.com/josharian/8f9b5beb46667c272064. The microbenchmarks must be taken with a grain of salt; see issue 7920. The few benchmarks that show real regressions are likely due to issue 7920. I manually examined the generated code for the top few regressions and none had any assembly output changes. The few benchmarks that show extraordinary improvements are likely also due to issue 7920.
Performance results from 8g appear similar to 6g.
5g shows no performance improvements. This is not surprising, given the discussion above.

The register allocator decides which variables should be placed into registers by charging for each load/store and crediting for each use, and then selecting an allocation with minimal cost. NOPs will be eliminated, however, so using a variable in a NOP should not generate credit.
Issue 7867 arises from attempted registerization of multi-word variables because they are used in NOPs. By not crediting for that use, they will no longer be considered for registerization.
This fix could theoretically lead to better register allocation, but NOPs are rare relative to other instructions.

1. On entry to a function, only zero the ambiguously live stack variables.
Before, we were zeroing all stack variables containing pointers.
The zeroing is pretty inefficient right now (issue 7624), but there are also
too many stack variables detected as ambiguously live (issue 7345),
and that must be addressed before deciding how to improve the zeroing code.
(Changes in 5g/ggen.c, 6g/ggen.c, 8g/ggen.c, gc/pgen.c)
Fixes#7647.
2. Make the regopt word-based liveness analysis preserve the
whole-variable liveness property expected by the garbage collection
bitmap liveness analysis. That is, if the regopt liveness decides that
one word in a struct needs to be preserved, make sure it preserves
the entire struct. This is particularly important for multiword values
such as strings, slices, and interfaces, in which all the words need
to be present in order to understand the meaning.
(Changes in 5g/reg.c, 6g/reg.c, 8g/reg.c.)
Fixes#7591.
3. Make the regopt word-based liveness analysis treat a variable
as having its address taken - which makes it preserved across
all future calls - whenever n->addrtaken is set, for consistency
with the gc bitmap liveness analysis, even if there is no machine
instruction actually taking the address. In this case n->addrtaken
is incorrect (a nicer way to put it is overconservative), and ideally
there would be no such cases, but they can happen and the two
analyses need to agree.
(Changes in 5g/reg.c, 6g/reg.c, 8g/reg.c; test in bug484.go.)
Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.
4. Remove spurious VARDEF annotations. As the comment in
gc/pgen.c explains, the VARDEF must immediately precede
the initialization. It cannot be too early, and it cannot be too late.
In particular, if a function call sits between the VARDEF and the
actual machine instructions doing the initialization, the variable
will be treated as live during that function call even though it is
uninitialized, leading to problems.
(Changes in gc/gen.c; test in live.go.)
Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.
5. Do not treat loading the address of a wide value as a signal
that the value must be initialized. Instead depend on the existence
of a VARDEF or the first actual read/write of a word in the value.
If the load is in order to pass the address to a function that does
the actual initialization, treating the load as an implicit VARDEF
causes the same problems as described in step 4.
The alternative is to arrange to zero every such value before
passing it to the real initialization function, but this is a much
easier and more efficient change.
(Changes in gc/plive.c.)
Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.
6. Treat wide input parameters with their address taken as
initialized on entry to the function. Otherwise they look
"ambiguously live" and we will try to emit code to zero them.
(Changes in gc/plive.c.)
Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.
7. An array of length 0 has no pointers, even if the element type does.
Without this change, the zeroing code complains when asked to
clear a 0-length array.

There is no necessary relationship between the imports of the
packages a and b, and gccgo happens to import them in a
different order, leading to different output. This ordering
is not the purpose of the test in any case.

Types in function scope can have methods on them if they embed another type, but we didn't make the name unique, meaning that 2 identically named types in different functions would conflict with eachother.

The compiler computes initialization order by finding
a spanning tree between a package's global variables.
But it does so by walking both variables and functions
and stops detecting cycles between variables when they
mix with a cycle of mutually recursive functions.

Individual variables bigger than 10 MB are now
moved to the heap, as if they had escaped on
their own.
This avoids ridiculous stacks for programs that
do things like
x := [1<<30]byte{}
... use x ...
If 10 MB is too small, we can raise the limit.

Backends do not exactly expect receiving binary operators with
constant operands or use workarounds to move them to

clearfat (used to zero initialize structures) will use AX for x86 block ops. If we write to AX while calculating the dest pointer, we will fill the structure with incorrect values.
Since 64-bit arithmetic uses AX to synthesize a 64-bit register, getting an adress by indexing with 64-bit ops can clobber the register.

Deferred functions are not run by a call instruction. They are run by
the runtime editing registers to make the call start with a caller PC
returning to a
CALL deferreturn
instruction.
That instruction has always had the line number of the function's
closing brace, but that instruction's line number is irrelevant.
Stack traces show the line number of the instruction before the
return PC, because normally that's what started the call. Not so here.
The instruction before the CALL deferreturn could be almost anywhere
in the function; it's unrelated and its line number is incorrect to show.
Fix the line number by inserting a true hardware no-op with the right
line number before the returned-to CALL instruction. That is, the deferred
calls now appear to start with a caller PC returning to the second instruction
in this sequence:
NOP
CALL deferreturn
The traceback will show the line number of the NOP, which we've set
to be the line number of the function's closing brace.
The NOP here is not the usual pseudo-instruction, which would be
elided by the linker. Instead it is the real hardware instruction:
XCHG AX, AX on 386 and amd64, and AND.EQ R0, R0, R0 on ARM.

Escape analysis needs the right curfn value on a dclfunc node, otherwise it will not analyze the function.
When generating method value wrappers, we forgot to set the curfn correctly.

A struct with a single field was considered as equivalent to the
field type, which is incorrect is the field is blank.
Fields with padding could make the compiler think some
types are comparable when they are not.
