runtime: fix atomic operations on non-heap addresses
Race detector runtime does not tolerate operations on addresses

checks for atomic operations were removed in
https://golang.org/cl/111310044
Restore these checks.
It's tricker than just not calling into race runtime,
because it is the race runtime that makes the atomic
operations themselves (if we do not call into race runtime
we skip the atomic operation itself as well). So instead we call
__tsan_go_ignore_sync_start/end around the atomic operation.
This forces race runtime to skip all other processing
except than doing the atomic operation itself.

runtime: remove assumption that noptrdata data bss noptrbss are ordered and contiguous

The assumption can be violated by external linkers reordering them or
inserting non-Go sections in between them. I looked briefly at trying
to write out the _go_.o in external linking mode in a way that forced
the ordering, but no matter what there's no way to force Go's data
and Go's bss to be next to each other. If there is any data or bss from
non-Go objects, it's very likely to get stuck in between them.

Instead, rewrite the two places we know about that make the assumption.
I grepped for noptrdata to look for more and didn't find any.

The added race test (os/exec in external linking mode) fails without
the changes in the runtime. It crashes with an invalid pointer dereference.

getFunctionSource gathers five lines of "margin" around every

end of the source file, getFunctionSource would encounter an

returns the lines it has.

runtime: fix sudog leak

The SudoG used to sit on the stack, so it was cheap to allocated
and didn't need to be cleaned up when finished.

For the conversion to Go, we had to move sudog off the stack
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.
CL 150520043 made sure SudoG.selectdone 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).

[dev.power64] 6g,8g: remove unnecessary and incorrect reg use scanning

Previously, the 6g and 8g registerizers scanned for used
registers beyond the end of a region being considered for
registerization.  This ancient artifact was copied from the C
compilers, where it was probably necessary to track implicitly
used registers.  In the Go compilers it's harmless (because it
can only over-restrict the set of available registers), but no
longer necessary because the Go compilers correctly track
register use/set information.  The consequences of this extra
scan were (at least) that 1) we would not consider allocating
the AX register if there was a deferproc call in the future
because deferproc uses AX as a return register, so we see the
use of AX, but don't track that AX is set by the CALL, and 2)
we could not consider allocating the DX register if there was
a MUL in the future because MUL implicitly sets DX and (thanks
to an abuse of copyu in this code) we would also consider DX
used.

9 years ago[dev.cc] runtime: delete scalararg, ptrarg; rename onM to systemstack
Russ Cox [Wed, 12 Nov 2014 19:54:31 +0000 (14:54 -0500)]
[dev.cc] runtime: delete scalararg, ptrarg; rename onM to systemstack

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.)
