The previous implementation had several subtle issues. It's not
clear if any of these could actually be causing the flakiness
problems on openbsd/386, but fixing them should only help.
1. thrsleep() is implemented internally as unlock, then test *abort
(if abort != nil), then tsleep(). Under the current code, that makes
it theoretically possible that semasleep()/thrsleep() could release
waitsemalock, then a racing semawakeup() could acquire the lock,
increment waitsemacount, and call thrwakeup()/wakeup() before
thrsleep() reaches tsleep(). (In practice, OpenBSD's big kernel lock
seems unlikely to let this actually happen.)
The proper way to avoid this is to pass &waitsemacount as the abort
pointer to thrsleep so thrsleep knows to re-check it before going to
sleep, and to wakeup if it's non-zero. Then we avoid any races.
(I actually suspect openbsd's sema{sleep,wakeup}() could be further
simplified using cas/xadd instead of locks, but I don't want to be
more intrusive than necessary so late in the 1.4 release cycle.)
2. semasleep() takes a relative sleep duration, but thrsleep() needs
an absolute sleep deadline. Instead of recomputing the deadline each
iteration, compute it once up front and use (*Timespec)(nil) to signify
no deadline. Ensures we retry properly if there's a spurious wakeup.
3. Instead of assuming if thrsleep() woke up and waitsemacount wasn't
available that we must have hit the deadline, check that the system
call returned EWOULDBLOCK.
4. Instead of assuming that 64-bit systems are little-endian, compute
timediv() using a temporary int32 nsec and then assign it to tv_nsec.

A race exists between the parent and child processes after a fork.
The child needs to access the new M pointer passed as an argument
but the parent may have already returned and clobbered it.
Previously, we avoided this by saving the necessary data into
registers before the rfork system call but this isn't guaranteed
to work because Plan 9 makes no promises about the register state
after a system call. Only the 386 kernel seems to save them.
For amd64 and arm, this method won't work.
We eliminate the race by allocating stack space for the scheduler
goroutines (g0) in the per-process copy-on-write stack segment and
by only calling rfork on the scheduler stack.

The only thing I can see that is really Plan 9-specific
is that the stack pointer used for signal handling used
to have more mapped memory above it.
Specifically it used to have at most 88 bytes (StackTop),
so change the allocation of a 40-byte frame to a 128-byte frame.
No idea if this will work, but worth a try.
Note that "fix" here means get it back to timing out
instead of crashing.

The difference between the old and the new (from earlier) code
is that we set stackguard = stack.lo + StackGuard, while the old
code set stackguard = stack.lo. That 512 bytes appears to be
the difference between the profileloop function running and not running.
We don't know how big the system stack is, but it is likely MUCH bigger than 4k.
Give Go/C 8k.

Start the stack a few words below the actual top, so that
if something tries to read goexit's caller PC from the stack,
it won't fault on a bad memory address.
Today, heapdump does that.

For -mode=atomic, we need to read the counters
using an atomic load to avoid a race. Not worth worrying
about when -mode=atomic is set during generation

Commit to stack copying for stack growth.

I am confident that precise stack scans and stack copying are here to stay.
Delete fallback code for when precise stack info is disabled.
Delete fallback code for when copying stacks is disabled.
Delete fallback code for when StackCopyAlways is disabled.
Delete Stktop chain - there is only one stack segment now.
Delete M.moreargp, M.moreargsize, M.moreframesize, M.cret.
Delete G.writenbuf (unrelated, just dead).
Delete runtime.lessstack, runtime.oldstack.
Delete many amd64 morestack variants.
Delete initialization of morestack frame/arg sizes (shortens split prologue!).
Replace G's stackguard/stackbase/stack0/stacksize/
syscallstack/syscallguard/forkstackguard with simple stack
bounds (lo, hi).

I can't tell what gomallocgc did before with

Given:
p := alloc()
fn_taking_ptr(p)
p is NOT recorded as live at the call to fn_taking_ptr:
it's not needed by the code following the call.
p was passed to fn_taking_ptr, and fn_taking_ptr must keep
it alive as long as it needs it.
In practice, fn_taking_ptr will keep its own arguments live
for as long as the function is executing.
But if instead you have:
p := alloc()
i := uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(p))
fn_taking_int(i)
p is STILL NOT recorded as live at the call to fn_taking_int:
it's not needed by the code following the call.
fn_taking_int is responsible for keeping its own arguments
live, but fn_taking_int is written to take an integer, so even
though fn_taking_int does keep its argument live, that argument
does not keep the allocated memory live, because the garbage
collector does not dereference integers.
The shorter form:
p := alloc()
fn_taking_int(uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(p)))
and the even shorter form:
fn_taking_int(uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(alloc())))
are both the same as the 3-line form above.
syscall.Syscall is like fn_taking_int: it is written to take a list
of integers, and yet those integers are sometimes pointers.
If there is no other copy of those pointers being kept live,
the memory they point at may be garbage collected during
the call to syscall.Syscall.
This is happening on Solaris: for whatever reason, the timing
is such that the garbage collector manages to free the string
argument to the open(2) system call before the system call
has been invoked.
Change the system call wrappers to insert explicit references
that will keep the allocations alive in the original frame
(and therefore preserve the memory) until after syscall.Syscall
has returned.
Should fix Solaris flakiness.
This is not a problem for cgo, because cgo wrappers have
correctly typed arguments.

The sighander has been run at the bottom of the
currently executing goroutine stack, but it's in C,
and we don't want C on our ordinary goroutine stacks.
Worse, it does a lot of stuff, and it might need more
stack space. There is scary code in traceback_windows.go
that talks about stack splits during sighandler.
Moving sighandler to g0 will eliminate the possibility
of stack splits and such, and then we can delete
traceback_windows.go entirely. Win win.
On the builder, all.bat passes with GOARCH=amd64
and all.bat gets most of the way with GOARCH=386
except for a DLL-loading test that I think is unrelated.

This CL contains compiler+runtime changes that detect C code
running on Go (not g0, not gsignal) stacks, and it contains
corrections for what it detected.
The detection works by changing the C prologue to use a different
stack guard word in the G than Go prologue does. On the g0 and
gsignal stacks, that stack guard word is set to the usual
stack guard value. But on ordinary Go stacks, that stack
guard word is set to ^0, which will make any stack split
check fail. The C prologue then calls morestackc instead
of morestack, and morestackc aborts the program with
a message about running C code on a Go stack.
This check catches all C code running on the Go stack
except NOSPLIT code. The NOSPLIT code is allowed,
so the check is complete. Since it is a dynamic check,
the code must execute to be caught. But unlike the static
checks we've been using in cmd/ld, the dynamic check
works with function pointers and other indirect calls.
For example it caught sigpanic being pushed onto Go
stacks in the signal handlers.
Fixes#8667.

These all used a C implementation that contained 64-bit divide by 1000000000.
On 32-bit systems that ends up in the 64-bit C divide support, which makes
other calls and ends up using a fair amount of stack. We could convert them
to Go but then they'd still end up in software 64-bit divide code. That would
be okay, because Go code can split the stack, but it's still unnecessary.
Write time·now in assembly, just like on all the other systems, and use the
actual hardware support for 64/32 -> 64/32 division. This cuts the software
routines out entirely.
The actual code to do the division is copied and pasted from the sys_darwin_*.s files.
