On OS X, we now parse the Mach-O file to find the __text section,
which is arguably the more proper fix. But it's a bit worrisome to
depend on a name like __text not changing, so we also read more

[release-branch.go1.5] cmd/compile: fix crash with -race on large expr containing string->[]byte conversion

The assumption is that there are no nested function calls in complex expressions.
For the most part that assumption is true. It wasn't for these calls inserted during walk.
Fix that.

I looked through all the calls to mkcall in walk and these were the only cases
that emitted calls, that could be part of larger expressions (like not delete),
and that were not already handled.

A sigprof during stack barrier insertion or removal can crash if it
detects an inconsistency between the stkbar array and the stack
itself. Currently we protect against this when scanning another G's
stack using stackLock, but we don't protect against it when unwinding
stack barriers for a recover or a memmove to the stack.

This commit cleans up and improves the stack locking code. It
abstracts out the lock and unlock operations. It uses the lock
consistently everywhere we perform stack operations, and pushes the
lock/unlock down closer to where the stack barrier operations happen
to make it more obvious what it's protecting. Finally, it modifies
sigprof so that instead of spinning until it acquires the lock, it
simply doesn't perform a traceback if it can't acquire it. This is
necessary to prevent self-deadlock.

Updates #11863, which introduced stackLock to fix some of these
issues, but didn't go far enough.

Updates #12528.

Currently, if a profiling signal happens in the middle of
stackBarrier, gentraceback may see inconsistencies between stkbar and
the barriers on the stack and it will certainly get the wrong return
PC for stackBarrier. In most cases, the return PC won't be a PC at all
and this will immediately abort the traceback (which is considered
okay for a sigprof), but if it happens to be a valid PC this may sent
gentraceback down a rabbit hole.

Fix this by detecting when the gentraceback starts in stackBarrier and
simulating the completion of the barrier to get the correct initial
frame.

In mheap.sysAlloc, if an allocation at arena_used would exceed
arena_end (but wouldn't yet push us past arena_start+_MaxArean32), it
trie to extend the arena reservation by another 256 MB. It extends the
arena by calling sysReserve, which, on 32-bit, calls mmap without
MAP_FIXED, which means the address is just a hint and the kernel can
put the mapping wherever it wants. In particular, mmap may choose an
address below arena_start (the kernel also chose arena_start, so there
could be lots of space below it). Currently, we don't detect this case
and, if it happens, mheap.sysAlloc will corrupt arena_end and
arena_used then return the low pointer to mheap.grow, which will crash

sigprof tracebacks the stack across systemstack switches to make
profile tracebacks more complete. However, it does this even if the
user stack is currently being copied, which means it may be in an
inconsistent state that will cause the traceback to panic.

One specific way this can happen is during stack shrinking. Some
goroutine blocks for STW, then enters gchelper, which then assists
with root marking. If that root marking happens to pick the original
goroutine and its stack needs to be shrunk, it will begin to copy that
stack. During this copy, the stack is generally inconsistent and, in
particular, the actual locations of the stack barriers and their
recorded locations are temporarily out of sync. If a SIGPROF happens
during this inconsistency, it will walk the stack all the way back to
the blocked goroutine and panic when it fails to unwind the stack
barriers.

Fix this by disallowing jumping to the user stack during SIGPROF if
that user stack is in the process of being copied.

Fixes #12932.

This fixes an issue where the runtime panics with "out of memory" or
"cannot allocate memory" even though there's ample memory by reducing
the number of memory mappings created by the memory allocator.

Commit 7e1b61c7 worked around issue #8832 where Linux's transparent
huge page support could dramatically increase the RSS of a Go process
by setting the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE flag on any regions of pages released
to the OS with MADV_DONTNEED. This had the side effect of also
increasing the number of VMAs (memory mappings) in a Go address space
because a separate VMA is needed for every region of the virtual
address space with different flags. Unfortunately, by default, Linux
limits the number of VMAs in an address space to 65530, and a large
heap can quickly reach this limit when the runtime starts scavenging
memory.

This commit dramatically reduces the number of VMAs. It does this
primarily by only adjusting the huge page flag at huge page
granularity. With this change, on amd64, even a pessimal heap that
alternates between MADV_NOHUGEPAGE and MADV_HUGEPAGE must reach 128GB
to reach the VMA limit. Because of this rounding to huge page
granularity, this change is also careful to leave large used and
unused regions huge page-enabled.

This change reduces the maximum number of VMAs during the runtime
benchmarks with GODEBUG=scavenge=1 from 692 to 49.

Fixes #12233.

We compute whether two keys k1 and k2 in a map literal are duplicates by
constructing the expression OEQ(k1, k2) and calling the constant
expression evaluator on that expression, then extracting the boolean
result.

Unfortunately, the constant expression evaluator can fail for various
reasons.  I'm not really sure why it is dying in the case of 12536, but
to be safe we should use the result only if we get a constant back (if
we get a constant back, it must be boolean).  This probably isn't a
permanent fix, but it should be good enough for 1.5.2.

A permanent fix would be to ensure that the constant expression
evaluator can always work for map literal keys, and if not the compiler
should generate an error saying that the key isn't a constant (or isn't
comparable to some specific other key).

This patch has the effect of allowing the map literal to compile when
constant eval of the OEQ fails.  If the keys are really equal (which the
map impl will notice at runtime), one will overwrite the other in the
resulting map.  Not great, but better than a compiler crash.

but it turns out that it's necessary to avoid the GC seeing partially written
pointers.

It's of course possible to be more sophisticated (using ldp/stp to move 16
bytes at a time in the core loop and unrolling the tail copying loops being
the obvious ideas) but I wanted something simple and (reasonably) obviously
correct.

Currently, amd64p32's memmove and memclr use 8 byte writes as much as
possible and 1 byte writes for the tail of the object. However, if an
object ends with a 4 byte pointer at an 8 byte aligned offset, this
may copy/zero the pointer field one byte at a time, allowing the
garbage collector to observe a partially copied pointer.

Fix this by using 4 byte writes instead of 8 byte writes.

Updates #12552.

[release-branch.go1.5] runtime: adjust the ppc64x memmove and memclr to copy by word as much as it can

Issue #12552 can happen on ppc64 too, although much less frequently in my

Commit c257dfb1 attempted to fix recursive allocation in gcAssistAlloc;
however, it only reduced it: setting gp.gcalloc to 0 isn't sufficient
to disable assists at the beginning of the GC cycle when gp.gcscanwork
is also small or zero.

Fix this recursion more completely by setting gcalloc to a sentinel
value that directly disables assists.

Fixes #12894 (again).

If gcAssistAlloc is unable to steal or perform enough scan work, it
calls timeSleep, which allocates. If this allocation requires
obtaining a new span, it will in turn attempt to assist GC. Since
there's likely still no way to satisfy the assist, it will sleep
again, and so on, leading to potentially deep (not infinite, but also
not bounded) recursion.

Fix this by disallowing assists during the timeSleep.

This same problem was fixed on master by 65aa2da6. That commit built on
several other changes and hence can't be directly cherry-picked. This
commit implements the same idea.

Fixes #12894.

Currently the stack barrier stub blindly unwinds the next stack
barrier from the G's stack barrier array without checking that it's
the right stack barrier. If through some bug the stack barrier array
position gets out of sync with where we actually are on the stack,
this could return to the wrong PC, which would lead to difficult to
debug crashes. To address this, this commit adds a check to the amd64
stack barrier stub that it's unwinding the correct stack barrier.

Accepting a request with a nil body was never explicitly supported but
happened to work in the past.

This doesn't happen in most cases because usually people pass
a Server's incoming Request to the ReverseProxy's ServeHTTP method,
and incoming server requests are guaranteed to have non-nil bodies.

Still, it's a regression, so fix.
