Before this CL, Go programs in c-archive or c-shared buildmodes
would not handle SIGPIPE. That leads to surprising behaviour where
writes on a closed pipe or socket would raise SIGPIPE and terminate
the program. This CL changes the Go runtime to handle
SIGPIPE regardless of buildmode. In addition, SIGPIPE from non-Go
code is forwarded.
This is a refinement of CL 32796 that fixes the case where a non-default
handler for SIGPIPE is installed by the host C program.

From the garbage collector's perspective, time can move backwards in
cgocall. However, in the midst of this time warp, the pointer
arguments to cgocall can go from dead back to live. If a stack growth
happens while they're dead and then a GC happens when they become live
again, GC can crash with a bad heap pointer.
Specifically, the sequence that leads to a panic is:
1. cgocall calls entersyscall, which saves the PC and SP of its call
site in cgocall. Call this PC/SP "X". At "X" both pointer arguments
are live.
2. cgocall calls asmcgocall. Call the PC/SP of this call "Y". At "Y"
neither pointer argument is live.
3. asmcgocall calls the C code, which eventually calls back into the
Go code.
4. cgocallbackg remembers the saved PC/SP "X" in some local variables,
calls exitsyscall, and then calls cgocallbackg1.
5. The Go code causes a stack growth. This stack unwind sees PC/SP "Y"
in the cgocall frame. Since the arguments are dead at "Y", they are
not adjusted.
6. The Go code returns to cgocallbackg1, which calls reentersyscall
with the recorded saved PC/SP "X", so "X" gets stashed back into
gp.syscallpc/sp.
7. GC scans the stack. It sees there's a saved syscall PC/SP, so it
starts the traceback at PC/SP "X". At "X" the arguments are considered
live, so it scans them, but since they weren't adjusted, the pointers
are bad, so it panics.
This issue started as of commit ca4089ad, when the compiler stopped
marking arguments as live for the whole function.
Since this is a variable liveness issue, fix it by adding KeepAlive
calls that keep the arguments live across this whole time warp.
The existing issue7978 test has all of the infrastructure for testing
this except that it's currently up to chance whether a stack growth
happens in the callback (it currently only happens on the
linux-amd64-noopt builder, for example). Update this test to force a
stack growth, which causes it to fail reliably without this fix.
Fixes#17785.

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
call to a C function that requires pointer checking, but the cost of the
additional call should be minimal compared to the cost of pointer
checking.

The endcgo function call is currently deferred in case a cgo
callback into Go panics and unwinds through cgocall. Typical cgo
calls do not have callbacks into Go, and even fewer panic, so we
pay the cost of this defer for no typical benefit.
Amazingly, there is another defer on the cgocallback path also used
to cleanup in case the Go code called by cgo panics. This CL folds
the first defer into the second, to reduce the cost of typical cgo
calls.
This reduces the overhead for a no-op cgo call significantly:
name old time/op new time/op delta
CgoNoop-8 93.5ns ± 0% 51.1ns ± 1% -45.34% (p=0.016 n=4+5)
The total effect between Go 1.7 and 1.8 is even greater, as CL 29656
reduced the cost of defer recently. Hopefully a future Go release
will drop the cost of defer to nothing, making this optimization
unnecessary. But until then, this is nice.

When a non-Go thread calls into Go, the runtime needs an M to run the Go
code. The runtime keeps a list of extra M's available. When the last
extra M is allocated, the needextram field is set to tell it to allocate
a new extra M as soon as it is running in Go. This ensures that an extra
M will always be available for the next thread.
However, if many threads need an extra M at the same time, this
serializes them all. One thread will get an extra M with the needextram
field set. All the other threads will see that there is no M available
and will go to sleep. The one thread that succeeded will create a new
extra M. One lucky thread will get it. All the other threads will see
that there is no M available and will go to sleep. The effect is
thundering herd, as all the threads looking for an extra M go through
the process one by one. This seems to have a particularly bad effect on
the FreeBSD scheduler for some reason.
With this change, we track the number of threads waiting for an M, and
create all of them as soon as one thread gets through. This still means
that all the threads will fight for the lock to pick up the next M. But
at least each thread that gets the lock will succeed, instead of going
to sleep only to fight again.
This smooths out the performance greatly on FreeBSD, reducing the
average wall time of `testprogcgo CgoCallbackGC` by 74%. On GNU/Linux
the average wall time goes down by 9%.

Acquire and release the TSAN synchronization point when calling malloc,
just as we do when calling any other C function. If we don't do this,
TSAN will report false positive errors about races calling malloc and
free.
We used to have a special code path for malloc and free, going through
the runtime functions cmalloc and cfree. The special code path for cfree
was no longer used even before this CL. This CL stops using the special
code path for malloc, because there is no place along that path where we
could conditionally insert the TSAN synchronization. This CL removes
the support for the special code path for both functions.
Instead, cgo now automatically generates the malloc function as though
it were referenced as C.malloc. We need to automatically generate it
even if C.malloc is not called, even if malloc and size_t are not
declared, to support cgo-provided functions like C.CString.

In issue #13992, Russ mentioned that the heap bitmap footprint was
halved but that the bitmap size calculation hadn't been updated. This
presents the opportunity to either halve the bitmap size or double
the addressable virtual space. This CL doubles the addressable virtual
space. On 32 bit this can be tweaked further to allow the bitmap to
cover the entire 4GB virtual address space, removing a failure mode
if the kernel hands out memory with a too low address.
First, fix the calculation and double _MaxArena32 to cover 4GB virtual
memory space with the same bitmap size (256 MB).
Then, allow the fallback mode for the initial memory reservation
on 32 bit (or 64 bit with too little available virtual memory) to not
include space for the arena. mheap.sysAlloc will automatically reserve
additional space when the existing arena is full.
Finally, set arena_start to 0 in 32 bit mode, so that any address is
acceptable for subsequent (additional) reservations.
Before, the bitmap was always located just before arena_start, so
fix the two places relying on that assumption: Point the otherwise unused
mheap.bitmap to one byte after the end of the bitmap, and use it for
bitmap addressing instead of arena_start.
With arena_start set to 0 on 32 bit, the cgoInRange check is no longer a
sufficient check for Go pointers. Introduce and call inHeapOrStack to
check whether a pointer is to the Go heap or stack.
While we're here, remove sysReserveHigh which seems to be unused.

With the switch to separate mark bitmaps, the scan/dead bit for the
first word of each object is now unused. Reclaim this bit and use it
as a scan/dead bit, just like words three and on. The second word is
still used for checkmark.
This dramatically simplifies heapBitsSetTypeNoScan and hasPointers,
since they no longer need different cases for 1, 2, and 3+ word
objects. They can instead just manipulate the heap bitmap for the
first word and be done with it.
In order to enable this, we change heapBitsSetType and runGCProg to
always set the scan/dead bit to scan for the first word on every code
path. Since these functions only apply to types that have pointers,
there's no need to do this conditionally: it's *always* necessary to
set the scan bit in the first word.
We also change every place that scans an object and checks if there
are more pointers. Rather than only checking morePointers if the word
is >= 2, we now check morePointers if word != 1 (since that's the
checkmark word).
Looking forward, we should probably reclaim the checkmark bit, too,
but that's going to be quite a bit more work.
Tested by setting doubleCheck in heapBitsSetType and running all.bash
on both linux/amd64 and linux/386, and by running GOGC=10 all.bash.
This particularly improves the FmtFprintf* go1 benchmarks, since they
do a large amount of noscan allocation.

Two changes are included here that are dependent on the other.
The first is that allocBits and gcamrkBits are changed to
a *uint8 which points to the first byte of that span's
mark and alloc bits. Several places were altered to
perform pointer arithmetic to locate the byte corresponding
to an object in the span. The actual bit corresponding
to an object is indexed in the byte by using the lower three
bits of the objects index.
The second change avoids the redundant calculation of an
object's index. The index is returned from heapBitsForObject
and then used by the functions indexing allocBits
and gcmarkBits.
Finally we no longer allocate the gc bits in the span
structures. Instead we use an arena based allocation scheme
that allows for a more compact bit map as well as recycling
and bulk clearing of the mark bits.

This is a fix for the -msan option when using cgo callbacks. A cgo
callback works by writing out C code that puts a struct on the stack and
passes the address of that struct into Go. The result parameters are
fields of the struct. The Go code will write to the result parameters,
but the Go code thinks it is just writing into the Go stack, and
therefore won't call msanwrite. This CL adds a call to msanwrite in the
cgo callback code so that the C knows that results were written.

This implements part of the proposal in issue 12416 by adding dynamic
checks for passing pointers from Go to C. This code is intended to be
on at all times. It does not try to catch every case. It does not
implement checks on calling Go functions from C.
The new cgo checks may be disabled using GODEBUG=cgocheck=0.

Shared libraries on ppc64le will require a larger minimum stack frame (because
the ABI mandates that the TOC pointer is available at 24(R1)). So to prepare
for this, make a constant for the fixed part of a stack and use that where
necessary.

Stack can move during callback, so libcall struct cannot be stored on stack.
asmstdcall updates return values and errno in libcall struct parameter, but
these could be at different location when callback returns.
Store these in m, so they are not affected by GC.

With the new buildmodes c-archive and c-shared, it is possible for a
cgo call to come in early in the lifecycle of a Go program. Calls
before the runtime has been initialized are caught by
_cgo_wait_runtime_init_done. However a call can come in after the
runtime has initialized, but before the program's package init
functions have finished running.
To avoid this cgocallback checks m.ncgo to see if we are on a thread
running Go. If not, we may be a foreign thread and it blocks until
main_init is complete.

Previously the extra m needed for cgo callbacks was created on the
first callback. This works for cgo, however the cgocallback mechanism
is also borrowed by badsignal which can run before any cgo calls are
made.
Now we initialize the extra M at runtime startup before any signal
handlers are registered, so badsignal cannot be called until the
extra M is ready.

This adds a "framepointer" GOEXPERIMENT that that makes the amd64
toolchain maintain base pointer chains in the same way that gcc
-fno-omit-frame-pointer does. Go doesn't use these saved base
pointers, but this does enable external tools like Linux perf and
VTune to unwind Go stacks when collecting system-wide profiles.
This requires support in the compilers to not clobber BP, support in
liblink for generating the BP-saving function prologue and unwinding
epilogue, and support in the runtime to save BPs across preemption, to
skip saved BPs during stack unwinding and, and to adjust saved BPs
during stack moving.
As with other GOEXPERIMENTs, everything from the toolchain to the
runtime must be compiled with this experiment enabled. To do this,
run make.bash (or all.bash) with GOEXPERIMENT=framepointer.

Scalararg and ptrarg are not "signal safe".
Go code filling them out can be interrupted by a signal,
and then the signal handler runs, and if it also ends up
in Go code that uses scalararg or ptrarg, now the old
values have been smashed.
For the pieces of code that do need to run in a signal handler,
we introduced onM_signalok, which is really just onM
except that the _signalok is meant to convey that the caller
asserts that scalarg and ptrarg will be restored to their old
values after the call (instead of the usual behavior, zeroing them).
Scalararg and ptrarg are also untyped and therefore error-prone.
Go code can always pass a closure instead of using scalararg
and ptrarg; they were only really necessary for C code.
And there's no more C code.
For all these reasons, delete scalararg and ptrarg, converting
the few remaining references to use closures.
Once those are gone, there is no need for a distinction between
onM and onM_signalok, so replace both with a single function
equivalent to the current onM_signalok (that is, it can be called
on any of the curg, g0, and gsignal stacks).
The name onM and the phrase 'm stack' are misnomers,
because on most system an M has two system stacks:
the main thread stack and the signal handling stack.
Correct the misnomer by naming the replacement function systemstack.
Fix a few references to "M stack" in code.
The main motivation for this change is to eliminate scalararg/ptrarg.
Rick and I have already seen them cause problems because
the calling sequence m.ptrarg[0] = p is a heap pointer assignment,
so it gets a write barrier. The write barrier also uses onM, so it has
all the same problems as if it were being invoked by a signal handler.
We worked around this by saving and restoring the old values
and by calling onM_signalok, but there's no point in keeping this nice
home for bugs around any longer.
This CL also changes funcline to return the file name as a result
instead of filling in a passed-in *string. (The *string signature is
left over from when the code was written in and called from C.)
That's arguably an unrelated change, except that once I had done
the ptrarg/scalararg/onM cleanup I started getting false positives
about the *string argument escaping (not allowed in package runtime).
The compiler is wrong, but the easiest fix is to write the code like
Go code instead of like C code. I am a bit worried that the compiler
is wrong because of some use of uninitialized memory in the escape
analysis. If that's the reason, it will go away when we convert the
compiler to Go. (And if not, we'll debug it the next time.)
