Handling of special records for tiny allocations has two problems:
1. Once we queue a finalizer we mark the object. As the result any
subsequent finalizers for the same object will not be queued
during this GC cycle. If we have 16 finalizers setup (the worst case),
finalization will take 16 GC cycles. This is what caused misbehave
of tinyfin.go. The actual flakiness was caused by the fact that fing
is asynchronous and don't always run before the check.
2. If a tiny block has both finalizer and profile specials,
it is possible that we both queue finalizer, preserve the object live
and free the profile record. As the result heap profile can be skewed.
Fix both issues by analyzing all special records for a single object at once.
Also, make tinyfin test stricter and remove reliance on real time.
Also, add a test for the problem 2. Currently heap profile missed about
a half of live memory.

Currently the GC work buffers are only 256 bytes and hence can record
only 24 64-bit pointer. They were reduced from 4K in commits db7fd1c
and a15818f as a way to minimize the amount of work the per-P workbuf
caches could "hide" from the mark phase and carry in to the mark
termination phase. However, this approach wasn't very robust and we
later added a "mark 2" phase to address this problem head-on.
Because of mark 2, there's now no benefit to having very small work
buffers. But there are plenty of downsides: small work buffers
increase contention on the work lists, increase the frequency and
hence net overhead of acquiring and releasing work buffers, and
somewhat increase memory overhead of the GC.
This commit expands work buffers back to 4K (504 64-bit pointers).
This reduces the rate of writes to work.full in the garbage benchmark
from a peak of ~780,000 writes/sec to a peak of ~32,000 writes/sec.
This has negligible effect on the go1 benchmarks. It slightly slows
down the garbage benchmark.

Currently, assists are non-preemptible, which means a heavily
assisting G can block other Gs from running. At the beginning of a GC
cycle, it can also delay scang, which will spin until the assist is
done. Since scanning is currently done sequentially, this can
seriously extend the length of the scan phase.
Fix this by making assists preemptible. Since the assist holds work
buffers and runs on the system stack, this must be done cooperatively:
we make gcDrainN return on preemption, and make the assist return from
the system stack and voluntarily Gosched.
This is prerequisite to enlarging the work buffers. Without this
change, the delays and spinning in scang increase significantly.
This has no effect on the go1 benchmarks.

GC assists must block until the assist can be satisfied (either
through stealing credit or doing work) or the GC cycle ends.
Currently, this is implemented as a retry loop with a 100 µs delay.
This obviously isn't ideal, as it wastes CPU and delays mutator
execution. It also has the somewhat peculiar downside that sleeping a
G requires allocation, and this requires working around recursive
allocation.
Replace this timed delay with a proper scheduling queue. When an
assist can't be satisfied immediately, it adds the allocating G to a
queue and parks it. Any time background scan credit is flushed, it
consults this queue, directly satisfies the debt of queued assists,
and wakes up satisfied assists before flushing any remaining credit to
the background credit pool.
No effect on the go1 benchmarks. Slightly speeds up the garbage
benchmark.

Currently the concurrent root scan is performed in its entirety by the
GC coordinator before entering concurrent mark (which enables GC
workers). This scan is done sequentially, which can prolong the scan
phase, delay the mark phase, and means that the scan phase does not
obey the 25% CPU goal. Furthermore, there's no need to complete the
root scan before starting marking (in fact, we already allow GC
assists to happen during the scan phase), so this acts as an
unnecessary barrier between root scanning and marking.
This change shifts the root scan work out of the GC coordinator and in
to the GC workers. The coordinator simply sets up the scan state and
enqueues the right number of root scan jobs. The GC workers then drain
the root scan jobs prior to draining heap scan jobs.
This parallelizes the root scan process, makes it obey the 25% CPU
goal, and effectively eliminates root scanning as an isolated phase,
allowing the system to smoothly transition from root scanning to heap
marking. This also eliminates a major non-STW responsibility of the GC
coordinator, which will make it easier to switch to a decentralized
state machine. Finally, it puts us in a good position to perform root
scanning in assists as well, which will help satisfy assists at the
beginning of the GC cycle.
This is mostly straightforward. One tricky aspect is that we have to
deal with preemption deadlock: where two non-preemptible gorountines
are trying to preempt each other to perform a stack scan. Given the
context where this happens, the only instance of this is two
background workers trying to scan each other. We avoid this by simply
not scanning the stacks of background workers during the concurrent
phase; this is safe because we'll scan them during mark termination
(and their stacks are *very* small and should not contain any new
pointers).
This change also switches the root marking during mark termination to
use the same gcDrain-based code path as concurrent mark. This
shouldn't affect performance because STW root marking was already
parallel and tasks switched to heap marking immediately when no more
root marking tasks were available. However, it simplifies the code and
unifies these code paths.
This has negligible effect on the go1 benchmarks. It slightly slows
down the garbage benchmark, possibly by making GC run slightly more
frequently.

However, Plan 9 doesn't support floating point in the

The ragged barrier after entering the concurrent mark phase is
vestigial. This used to be the point where we enabled write barriers,
so it was necessary to synchronize all Ps to ensure write barriers
were enabled before any marking occurred. However, we've long since
switched to enabling write barriers during the concurrent scan phase,
so the start-the-world at the beginning of the concurrent scan phase
ensures that all Ps have enabled the write barrier.
Hence, we can eliminate the old "install write barrier" phase.

Currently, when the mutator allocates, the runtime first allocates the
memory and then, if that G has done "enough" allocation, the runtime
checks whether the G has assist debt to pay off and, if so, pays it
off. This approach leads to under-assisting, where a G can allocate a
large region (or many small regions) before paying for it, or can even
exit with outstanding debt.
This commit flips this around so that a G always acquires enough
credit for an allocation before it can perform that allocation. We
continue to amortize the cost of assists by requiring that they
over-assist when triggered to build up credit for many allocations.

Currently we track the per-G GC assist balance as two monotonically
increasing values: the bytes allocated by the G this cycle (gcalloc)
and the scan work performed by the G this cycle (gcscanwork). The
assist balance is hence assistRatio*gcalloc - gcscanwork.
This works, but has two important downsides:
1) It requires floating-point math to figure out if a G is in debt or
not. This makes it inappropriate to check for assist debt in the
hot path of mallocgc, so we only do this when a G allocates a new
span. As a result, Gs can operate "in the red", leading to
under-assist and extended GC cycle length.
2) Revising the assist ratio during a GC cycle can lead to an "assist
burst". If you think of plotting the scan work performed versus
heaps size, the assist ratio controls the slope of this line.
However, in the current system, the target line always passes
through 0 at the heap size that triggered GC, so if the runtime
increases the assist ratio, there has to be a potentially large
assist to jump from the current amount of scan work up to the new
target scan work for the current heap size.
This commit replaces this approach with directly tracking the GC
assist balance in terms of allocation credit bytes. Allocating N bytes
simply decreases this by N and assisting raises it by the amount of
scan work performed divided by the assist ratio (to get back to
bytes).
This will make it cheap to figure out if a G is in debt, which will
let us efficiently check if an assist is necessary *before* performing
an allocation and hence keep Gs "in the black".
This also fixes assist bursts because the assist ratio is now in terms
of *remaining* work, rather than work from the beginning of the GC
cycle. Hence, the plot of scan work versus heap size becomes
continuous: we can revise the slope, but this slope always starts from
where we are right now, rather than where we were at the beginning of
the cycle.

it makes more sense to enforce that the heap goal itself is at least

approaches are semantically equivalent, but this will let us switch to
basing the assist ratio on current heap distance rather than the
initial heap distance, since we can't enforce this minimum on the
current heap distance (the GC may never finish because the goal posts
will always be 1MB away).

This fixes an issue where the runtime panics with "out of memory" or
"cannot allocate memory" even though there's ample memory by reducing
the number of memory mappings created by the memory allocator.
Commit 7e1b61c worked around issue #8832 where Linux's transparent
huge page support could dramatically increase the RSS of a Go process
by setting the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE flag on any regions of pages released
to the OS with MADV_DONTNEED. This had the side effect of also
increasing the number of VMAs (memory mappings) in a Go address space
because a separate VMA is needed for every region of the virtual
address space with different flags. Unfortunately, by default, Linux
limits the number of VMAs in an address space to 65530, and a large
heap can quickly reach this limit when the runtime starts scavenging
memory.
This commit dramatically reduces the number of VMAs. It does this
primarily by only adjusting the huge page flag at huge page
granularity. With this change, on amd64, even a pessimal heap that
alternates between MADV_NOHUGEPAGE and MADV_HUGEPAGE must reach 128GB
to reach the VMA limit. Because of this rounding to huge page
granularity, this change is also careful to leave large used and
unused regions huge page-enabled.
This change reduces the maximum number of VMAs during the runtime
benchmarks with GODEBUG=scavenge=1 from 692 to 49.

In general, finishsweep_m must block until any spans that are
concurrently being swept have been swept. It accomplishes this by
looping over all spans, which, as in the previous commit, takes
~1ms/heap GB. Unfortunately, we do this during the STW sweep
termination phase, so multi-gigabyte heaps can push our STW time past
10ms.
However, there's no need to do this wait if the world is stopped
because, in effect, stopping the world already had to wait for
anything that was sweeping (and if it didn't, the wait in
finishsweep_m would deadlock). Hence, we can simply skip this loop if
the world is stopped, such as during sweep termination. In fact,
currently all calls to finishsweep_m are STW, but this hasn't always
been the case and may not be the case in the future, so we keep the
logic around.
For 24GB heaps, this reduces max pause time by 75% relative to tip and

This reduces pause time by ~25% relative to tip and by ~50% relative
to Go 1.5.1.
Currently one of the steps of STW mark termination is to loop (in
parallel) over all spans to find objects with finalizers in order to
mark all objects reachable from these objects and to treat the
finalizer special as a root. Unfortunately, even if there are no
finalizers at all, this loop takes roughly 1 ms/heap GB/core, so
multi-gigabyte heaps can quickly push our STW time past 10ms.
Fix this by moving this scan from mark termination to concurrent scan,
where it can run in parallel with mutators. The loop itself could also
be optimized, but this cost is small compared to concurrent marking.
Making this scan concurrent introduces two complications:
1) The scan currently walks the specials list of each span without
locking it, which is safe only with the world stopped. We fix this by
speculatively checking if a span has any specials (the vast majority
won't) and then locking the specials list only if there are specials
to check.
2) An object can have a finalizer set after concurrent scan, in which
case it won't have been marked appropriately by concurrent scan. If
the finalizer is a closure and is only reachable from the special, it
could be swept before it is run. Likewise, if the object is not marked
yet when the finalizer is set and then becomes unreachable before it
is marked, other objects reachable only from it may be swept before
the finalizer function is run. We fix this issue by making
addfinalizer ensure the same marking invariants as markroot does.
For multi-gigabyte heaps, this reduces max pause time by 20%–30%
relative to tip (depending on GOMAXPROCS) and by ~50% relative to Go
1.5.1 (where this loop was neither concurrent nor parallel). Here are
the results for the garbage benchmark:
---------------- max pause ----------------
Heap Procs Concurrent scan STW parallel scan 1.5.1
24GB 12 18ms 23ms 37ms
24GB 4 18ms 25ms 37ms
4GB 4 3.8ms 4.9ms 6.9ms
In all cases, 95%ile pause time is similar to the max pause time. This
also improves mean STW time by 10%–30%.
Fixes#11485.

Currently, the GC modes constants are untyped and functions pass them
around as ints. Clean this up by introducing a proper type for these
constant.

This change splits signal_unix.go into signal_unix.go and
signal2_unix.go and removes the fake symbol sigfwd from signal
forwarding unsupported platforms for clarification purpose.

sysReserve will return nil on failure - correctly handle this case and return
nil to the caller. Currently, a failure will result in h.arena_end being set
to psize, h.arena_used being set to zero and fun times ensue.
On the openbsd/arm builder this has resulted in:
runtime: address space conflict: map(0x0) = 0x40946000
fatal error: runtime: address space conflict
When it should be reporting out of memory instead.

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.

We've broken periodic GC a few times without noticing because there's
no test for it, partly because you have to wait two minutes to see if
it happens. This exposes control of the periodic GC timeout to runtime
tests and adds a test that cranks it down to zero and sleeps for a bit
to make sure periodic GCs happen.
