Currently markroot fetches the wbuf to fill from the per-M wbuf
cache. The wbuf cache is primarily meant for the write barrier because
it produces very little work on each call. There's little point to
using the cache in mark root, since each call to markroot is likely to
produce a large amount of work (so the slight win on getting it from
the cache instead of from the central wbuf lists doesn't matter), and
markroot does not dispose the wbuf back to the cache (so most markroot
calls won't get anything from the wbuf cache anyway).

Instead, just get the wbuf from the central wbuf lists like other work
producers. This will simplify later changes.

Currently, the GC's concurrent mark phase runs on the system
stack. There's no need to do this, and running it this way ties up the
entire M and P running the GC by preventing the scheduler from
preempting the GC even during concurrent mark.

Fix this by running concurrent mark on the regular G stack. It's still
non-preemptible because we also set preemptoff around the whole GC
process, but this moves us closer to making it preemptible.

Currently we harvestwbufs the moment we enter the mark phase, even
before starting the world again. Since cached wbufs are only filled
when we're in mark or mark termination, they should all be empty at
this point, making the harvest pointless. Remove the harvest.

We should, but do not currently harvest at the end of the mark phase
when we're running out of work to do.

One of my earlier versions of finer-grained select locking
failed on this test. If you just naively lock and check channels
one-by-one, it is possible that you skip over ready channels.
Consider that initially c1 is ready and c2 is not. Select checks c2.
Then another goroutine makes c1 not ready and c2 ready (in that order).
Then select checks c1, concludes that no channels are ready and
executes the default case. But there was no point in time when
no channel is ready and so default case must not be executed.

The GC assumes that there will be no asynchronous write barriers when
the world is stopped. This keeps the synchronization between write
barriers and the GC simple. However, currently, there are a few places
in runtime code where this assumption does not hold.
The GC stops the world by collecting all Ps, which stops all user Go
code, but small parts of the runtime can run without a P. For example,
the code that releases a P must still deschedule its G onto a runnable
queue before stopping. Similarly, when a G returns from a long-running
syscall, it must run code to reacquire a P.
Currently, this code can contain write barriers. This can lead to the
GC collecting reachable objects if something like the following
sequence of events happens:
1. GC stops the world by collecting all Ps.
2. G #1 returns from a syscall (for example), tries to install a
pointer to object X, and calls greyobject on X.
3. greyobject on G #1 marks X, but does not yet add it to a write
buffer. At this point, X is effectively black, not grey, even though
it may point to white objects.
4. GC reaches X through some other path and calls greyobject on X, but
greyobject does nothing because X is already marked.
5. GC completes.
6. greyobject on G #1 adds X to a work buffer, but it's too late.
7. Objects that were reachable only through X are incorrectly collected.
To fix this, we check the invariant that no asynchronous write
barriers happen when the world is stopped by checking that write
barriers always have a P, and modify all currently known sources of
these writes to disable the write barrier. In all modified cases this
is safe because the object in question will always be reachable via
some other path.

Some of the trace code was turned off, in particular the
code that traces returning from a syscall. The GC assumes
that as far as the heap is concerned the thread is stopped
when it is in a syscall. Upon returning the trace code
must not do any heap writes for the same reasons discussed
above.

Some versions of libc, in this case Android's bionic, point environ
directly at the envp memory.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic/+/master/libc/bionic/libc_init_common.cpp#104

The Go runtime does something surprisingly similar, building the
runtime's envs []string using gostringnocopy. Both libc and the Go
runtime reusing memory interacts badly. When syscall.Setenv uses cgo
to call setenv(3), C modifies the underlying memory of a Go string.

This manifests on android/arm. With GOROOT=/data/local/tmp, a
runtime test calls syscall.Setenv("/os"), resulting in
runtime.GOROOT()=="/os\x00a/local/tmp/goroot".

Avoid this by copying environment string memory into Go.

Covered by runtime.TestFixedGOROOT on android/arm.

Channels and sync.Mutex'es allow another goroutine to acquire resource
ahead of an unblocked goroutine. This is good for performance, but
leads to futile wakeups (the unblocked goroutine needs to block again).
Futile wakeups caused user confusion during the very first evaluation
of tracing functionality on a real server (a goroutine as if acquires a mutex
in a loop, while there is no loop in user code).

This change detects futile wakeups on channels and emits a special event
to denote the fact. Later parser finds entire wakeup sequences
(unblock->start->block) and removes them.

sync.Mutex will be supported in a separate change.

The Go builders (and standard development cycle) for programs on iOS

SIGSEGV and will not give it back.

https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22868

We get around this by never letting lldb see the SIGSEGV. On darwin,
Unix signals are emulated on top of mach exceptions. The debugger
registers a task-level mach exception handler. We register a
thread-level exception handler which acts as a faux signal handler.
The thread-level handler gets precedence over the task-level handler,
so we can turn the exception EXC_BAD_ACCESS into a panic before lldb
can see it.

Commit f1d669ae added support for
AES_256_GCM_SHA384 cipher suites as specified in RFC5289. However, it
did not take the arbitrary hash function into account in the TLS client
handshake when using client certificates.

The hashForClientCertificate method always returned SHA256 as its
hashing function, even if it actually used a different one to calculate
its digest. Setting up the connection would eventually fail with the
error "tls: failed to sign handshake with client certificate:
crypto/rsa: input must be hashed message".

Included is an additional test for this specific situation that uses the
SHA384 hash.
