In the C calling convention, on AMD64, and probably a number of
other architectures, a 3-word struct argument is passed on stack.
This is less efficient than passing in three registers. Further,
this may affect the code generation in other part of the program,
even if the function is not actually called.
Slices are common in Go and append is a common slice operation,
which calls growslice in the growing path. To improve the code
generation, pass the slice header's three fields as separate
values, instead of a struct, to growslice.
The drawback is that this makes the runtime implementation
slightly diverges from the gc runtime.

internal/cpu, runtime, runtime/pprof: handle function descriptors
When using PPC64 ELF ABI v1 a function address is not a PC, but is the
address of a function descriptor. The first field in the function
descriptor is the actual PC (see
http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/ELF/ppc64/PPC-elf64abi.html#FUNC-DES).
The libbacktrace library knows about this, and libgo uses actual PC
values consistently except for the helper function funcPC that appears
in both runtime and runtime/pprof.
This patch fixes funcPC by recording, in the internal/cpu package,
whether function descriptors are being used. We have to check for
function descriptors using a C compiler check, because GCC can be
configured using --with-abi to select the ELF ABI to use.

In signal-triggered stack scan, if the signal is delivered at
certain bad time (e.g. in vdso, or in the middle of setcontext?),
the unwinder may not be able to unwind the whole stack, while it
still reports _URC_END_OF_STACK. So we cannot rely on _URC_END_OF_STACK
to tell if it successfully scanned the stack. Instead, we check
the last Go frame to see it actually reached the end of the stack.
For Go-created stack, this is runtime.kickoff. For C-created
stack, we need to record the outermost Go frame when it enters
the Go side.
Also we cannot unwind the stack if the signal is delivered in the
middle of runtime.gogo, halfway through a goroutine switch, where
the g and the stack don't match. Give up in this case as well.

If a panic happens in the runtime we turn that into a fatal error.
We use the caller's PC to determine if the panic call is inside
the runtime. getcallerpc returns the PC immediately after the
call instruction. If the call is the very last instruction of a
function, it may not find this PC belong to a runtime function,
giving false result. We need to back off the PC by 1 to the call

The gc runtime doesn't do this because the gc compiler always

instruction. Our compiler doesn't do this.

Currently, we dropg (which clears gp.m) after we CAS the g status
to _Grunnable or _Gwaiting. Immediately after CASing the g status,
another thread may CAS it to _Gscan status and scan its stack.
With precise stack scan, it accesses gp.m in order to switch to g
and back (in doscanstackswitch). This races with dropg. If
doscanstackswitch reads gp.m, then dropg runs, when we restore
the m at the end of the scan it will set to a stale value. Worse,
if dropg runs after doscanstackswitch sets the new m, gp will be
running with a nil m.
To fix this, we do dropg before CAS g status to _Grunnable or
_Gwaiting. We can do this safely if we are CASing from _Grunning,
as we own the g when it is in _Grunning. There is one case where
we CAS from _Gsyscall to _Grunnable. It is not safe to dropg when
it is in _Gsyscall, as precise stack scan needs to read gp.m in
order to signal the m. So we need to introduce a transient state,
_Gexitingsyscall, between _Gsyscall and _Grunnable, where the GC
should not scan its stack.
In is a little unfortunate that we have to add another g status.
We could reuse an existing one (e.g. _Gcopystack), but it is
clearer and safer to just use a new one, as Austin suggested.

This CL adds support of precise stack scan using stack maps to
the runtime. The stack maps are generated by the compiler (if
supported). Each safepoint is associated with a (real or dummy)
landing pad, and its "type info" in the exception table is a
pointer to the stack map. When a stack is scanned, the stack map
is found by the stack unwinding code by inspecting the exception
table (LSDA).
For precise stack scan we need to unwind the stack. There are
three cases:
- If a goroutine is scanning its own stack, it can unwind the
stack and scan the frames.
- If a goroutine is scanning another, stopped, goroutine, it
cannot directly unwind the target stack. We handle this by
switching (runtime.gogo) to the target g, letting it unwind
and scan the stack, and switch back.
- If we are scanning a goroutine that is blocked in a syscall,
we send a signal to the target goroutine's thread, and let the
signal handler unwind and scan the stack. Extra care is needed
as this races with enter/exit syscall.
Currently this is only implemented on linux.

The current implementation of Gogo::pkgpath_for_symbol was written in
a way that allowed two distinct package paths to map to the same
symbol, which could cause collisions at link- time or compile-time.
Switch to a better mangling scheme to insure that we get a unique
packagepath symbol for each package. In the new scheme instead of having
separate mangling schemes for identifiers and package paths, the
main identifier mangler ("go_encode_id") now handles mangling of
both packagepath characters and identifier characters.
The new mangling scheme is more intrusive: "foo/bar.Baz" is mangled as
"foo..z2fbar.Baz" instead of "foo_bar.Baz". To mitigate this, this
patch also adds a demangling capability so that function names
returned from runtime.CallersFrames are converted back to their
original unmangled form.
Changing the pkgpath_for_symbol scheme requires updating a number of
//go:linkname directives and C "__asm__" directives to match the new
scheme, as well as updating the 'gotest' driver (which makes
assumptions about the correct mapping from pkgpath symbol to package
name).

This revealed a problem in the kickoff function. When using cgo,
kickoff can be called on the g0 of an m allocated by newExtraM. In
that case the m will generally have a p, but systemstack may be called
by wbBufFlush as part of flushing the write barrier buffer. At that
point the buffer is full, so we can not do a write barrier. So adjust

Unlike the gc runtime, libgo stores traceback information in location
structs, which contain strings. Therefore, copying location structs
around appears to require write barriers, although in fact write
barriers are never important because the strings are never allocated
in Go memory. They come from libbacktrace.
Some of the generated write barriers come at times when write barriers
are not permitted. For example, exitsyscall, marked
nowritebarrierrec, calls exitsyscallfast which calls traceGoSysExit
which calls traceEvent which calls traceStackID which calls
trace.stackTab.put which copies location values into memory allocated
by tab.newStack. This write barrier can be invoked when there is no
p, causing a crash.
This change fixes the problem by ensuring that location values are
copied around in the tracing code with no write barriers.
This was found by fixing the compiler to fully implement
