6afb5fa48f runtime: remove GoSched/GoStart trace events around GC
These were appropriate for STW GC, since it interrupted the allocating
Goroutine, but don't apply to concurrent GC, which runs on its own
Goroutine. Forced GC is still STW, but it makes sense to attribute the
GC to the goroutine that called runtime.GC().

7c37249639 runtime: make test for freezetheworld more precise
exitsyscallfast checks for freezetheworld, but does so only by
checking if stopwait is positive. This can also happen during
stoptheworld, which is harmless, but confusing. Shortly, it will be
important that we get to the p.status cas even if stopwait is set.

Hence, make this test more specific so it only triggers with
freezetheworld and not other uses of stopwait.

fae4a128cb runtime, reflect: support multiple moduledata objects
This changes all the places that consult themoduledata to consult a
linked list of moduledata objects, as will be necessary for
-linkshared to work.

Obviously, as there is as yet no way of adding moduledata objects to
this list, all this change achieves right now is wasting a few
instructions here and there.

cb10ff1ef9 runtime: report next_gc for initial heap size in gctrace
Currently, the initial heap size reported in the gctrace line is the
heap_live right before sweep termination. However, we triggered GC
when heap_live reached next_gc, and there may have been significant
allocation between that point and the beginning of sweep
termination. Ideally these would be essentially the same, but
currently there's scheduler delay when readying the GC goroutine as
well as delay from background sweep finalization.

We should fix this delay, but in the mean time, to give the user a
better idea of how much the heap grew during the whole of garbage
collection, report the trigger rather than what the heap size happened
to be after the garbage collector finished rolling out of bed. This
will also be more useful for heap growth plots.

b0a85f5d93 runtime: darwin/amd64 library entry point
This is a practice run for darwin/arm.

Similar to the linux/amd64 shared library entry point. With several
pending linker changes I am successfully using this to implement
-buildmode=c-archive on darwin/amd64 with external linking.

The same entry point can be reused to implement -buildmode=c-shared
on darwin/amd64, however that will require further ld changes to
remove all text relocations.

One extra runtime change will follow this. According to the Go
execution modes document, -buildmode=c-archive should ignore the Go
main function. Right now it is being executed (and the process exits
if it doesn't block). I'm still searching for the right way to do
this.

This CL is quite conservative in some ways.  It continues to define

It would also now be possible to make some changes to the pcln data but
I get the impression that would definitely require some thought and
discussion.

6d12b1780e runtime: make next_gc be heap size to trigger GC at
In the STW collector, next_gc was both the heap size to trigger GC at
as well as the goal heap size.

Early in the concurrent collector's development, next_gc was the goal
heap size, but was also used as the heap size to trigger GC at. This
meant we always overshot the goal because of allocation during
concurrent GC.

Currently, next_gc is still the goal heap size, but we trigger
concurrent GC at 7/8*GOGC heap growth. This complicates
shouldtriggergc, but was necessary because of the incremental
maintenance of next_gc.

Now we simply compute next_gc for the next cycle during mark
termination. Hence, it's now easy to take the simpler route and
redefine next_gc as the heap size at which the next GC triggers. We
can directly compute this with the 7/8 backoff during mark termination
and shouldtriggergc can simply test if the live heap size has grown
over the next_gc trigger.

This will also simplify later changes once we start setting next_gc in
more sophisticated ways.

d7e0ad4b82 runtime: introduce heap_live; replace use of heap_alloc in GC
Currently there are two main consumers of memstats.heap_alloc:
updatememstats (aka ReadMemStats) and shouldtriggergc.

updatememstats recomputes heap_alloc from the ground up, so we don't
need to keep heap_alloc up to date for it. shouldtriggergc wants to
know how many bytes were marked by the previous GC plus how many bytes
have been allocated since then, but this *isn't* what heap_alloc
tracks. heap_alloc also includes objects that are not marked and
haven't yet been swept.

Introduce a new memstat called heap_live that actually tracks what
shouldtriggergc wants to know and stop keeping heap_alloc up to date.

Unlike heap_alloc, heap_live follows a simple sawtooth that drops
during each mark termination and increases monotonically between GCs.
heap_alloc, on the other hand, has much more complicated behavior: it
may drop during sweep termination, slowly decreases from background
sweeping between GCs, is roughly unaffected by allocation as long as
there are unswept spans (because we sweep and allocate at the same
rate), and may go up after background sweeping is done depending on
the GC trigger.

heap_live simplifies computing next_gc and using it to figure out when
to trigger garbage collection. Currently, we guess next_gc at the end
of a cycle and update it as we sweep and get a better idea of how much
heap was marked. Now, since we're directly tracking how much heap is
marked, we can directly compute next_gc.

This also corrects bugs that could cause us to trigger GC early.
Currently, in any case where sweep termination actually finds spans to
sweep, heap_alloc is an overestimation of live heap, so we'll trigger
GC too early. heap_live, on the other hand, is unaffected by sweeping.

This tracks the number of heap bytes marked by a GC cycle. We'll use
this information to precisely trigger the next GC cycle.

Currently this aggregates the work counter in gcWork and dispose
atomically aggregates this into a global work counter. dispose happens
relatively infrequently, so the contention on the global counter
should be low. If this turns out to be an issue, we can reduce the
number of disposes, and if it's still a problem, we can switch to
per-P counters.

e8694c8196 runtime: initialize shared library at library-load time
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.

24ee948269 runtime: update gctrace line for new garbage collector
GODEBUG=gctrace=1 turns on a per-GC cycle trace line. The current line
is left over from the STW garbage collector and includes a lot of
information that is no longer meaningful for the concurrent GC and
doesn't include a lot of information that is important.

Replace this line with a new line designed for the new garbage
collector.

This new line is focused more on helping the user understand the
impact of the garbage collector on their program and less on telling
us, the runtime developers, everything that's happening inside
GC. It's designed to fit in 80 columns and intentionally omit some
potentially useful things that were in the old line. We might want a
"verbose" mode that adds information for us.

We'll be able to further simplify the line once we eliminate the STW
around enabling the write barrier. Then we'll have just one STW phase,
one concurrent phase, and one more STW phase, so we'll be able to
reduce the number of times from five to three.

In preparation for being able to run a go program that has code
in several objects, this changes from having several linker
symbols used by the runtime into having one linker symbol that
points at a structure containing the needed data.  Multiple

A follow up will initialize the slices in the themoduledata

a2f3d73fee runtime: improve comment about non-preemption during GC work
Currently, gcDrainN is documented saying that it must be run on the
system stack. In fact, the problem and solution here are somewhat
subtler. First, it doesn't have to happen on the system stack, it just
has to be non-stoppable (that is, non-preemptible). Second, this isn't
specific to gcDrainN (though gcDrainN is perhaps the most surprising
instance); it's general to anything that uses the gcWork structure.

Move the comment to gcWork and generalize it.

9e6f7aac28 runtime: make "write barriers are not allowed" comments more precise
Currently, various functions are marked with the comment

  // May run without a P, so write barriers are not allowed.

However, "running without a P" is ambiguous. We intended these to mean
that m.p may be nil (which is the condition checked by the write
barrier). The comment could also be taken to mean that a
stop-the-world may happen, which is not the case for these functions
because they run in situations where there is in fact a function on
the stack holding a P locally, it just isn't in m.p.

Change these comments to state precisely what we mean, that m.p may be
nil.

  - if the symbol is present, adds a new entry into the .init_array ELF

The end-effect is that the symbol _rt0_<GOARCH>_<GOOS>_lib will be
invoked as soon as the (ELF) shared library is loaded, which will in turn
initialize the runtime. (To be implemented.)

392336f94e runtime: disallow write barriers in handoffp and callees
handoffp by definition runs without a P, so it's not allowed to have
write barriers. It doesn't have any right now, but mark it
nowritebarrier to disallow any creeping in in the future. handoffp in
turns calls startm, newm, and newosproc, all of which are "below Go"
and make sense to run without a P, so disallow write barriers in these
as well.

For most functions, we've done this because they may race with
stoptheworld() and hence must not have write barriers. For these
functions, it's a little different: the world can't stop while we're
in handoffp, so this race isn't present. But we implement this
restriction with a somewhat broader rule that you can't have a write
barrier without a P. We like this rule because it's simple and means
that our write barriers can depend on there being a P, even though
this rule is actually a little broader than necessary. Hence, even
though there's no danger of the race in these functions, we want to
adhere to the broader rule.

Currently, Darwin's siginfo type uses *byte for the si_addr
field. This results in unwanted write barriers in set_sigaddr. It's
also pointless since it never points to anything real and the get/set
methods return/take uintXX and cast it from/to the pointer.

All other arches use a uint type for this field. Change Darwin to
match. This simplifies the get/set methods and eliminates the unwanted
write barriers.
