      time: print zero duration as 0s, not 0 · 9c4295b5
      Rob Pike authored
      There should be a unit, and s is the SI unit name, so use that.
      The other obvious possibility is ns (nanosecond), but the fact
      that durations are measured in nanoseconds is an internal detail.
      
      Fixes #14058.

      Instead of using TARRAY for both arrays and slices, create a new
      TSLICE kind to handle slices.
      
      Also, get rid of the "DDDArray" distinction. While kinda ugly, it
      seems likely we'll need to defer evaluating the constant bounds
      expressions for golang.org/issue/13890.

      runtime: eliminate floating garbage estimate · c8bd293e
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently when we compute the trigger for the next GC, we do it based
      on an estimate of the reachable heap size at the start of the GC
      cycle, which is itself based on an estimate of the floating garbage.
      This was introduced by 4655aadd to fix a bad feedback loop that allowed
      the heap to grow to many times the true reachable size.
      
      However, this estimate gets easily confused by rapidly allocating
      applications, and, worse it's different than the heap size the trigger
      controller uses to compute the trigger itself. This results in the
      trigger controller often thinking that GC finished before it started.
      Since this would be a pretty great outcome from it's perspective, it
      sets the trigger for the next cycle as close to the next goal as
      possible (which is limited to 95% of the goal).
      
      Furthermore, the bad feedback loop this estimate originally fixed
      seems not to happen any more, suggesting it was fixed more correctly
      by some other change in the mean time. Finally, with the change to
      allocate black, it shouldn't even be theoretically possible for this
      bad feedback loop to occur.
      
      Hence, eliminate the floating garbage estimate and simply consider the
      reachable heap to be the marked heap. This harms overall throughput
      slightly for allocation-heavy benchmarks, but significantly improves
      mutator availability.
      
      Fixes #12204. This brings the average trigger in this benchmark from
      0.95 (the cap) to 0.7 and the active GC utilization from ~90% to ~45%.
      
      Updates #14951. This makes the trigger controller much better behaved,
      so it pulls the trigger lower if assists are consuming a lot of CPU
      like it's supposed to, increasing mutator availability.

      runtime: allocate black during GC · 6002e01e
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently we allocate white for most of concurrent marking. This is
      based on the classical argument that it produces less floating
      garbage, since allocations during GC may not get linked into the heap
      and allocating white lets us reclaim these. However, it's not clear
      how often this actually happens, especially since our write barrier
      shades any pointer as soon as it's installed in the heap regardless of
      the color of the slot.
      
      On the other hand, allocating black has several advantages that seem
      to significantly outweigh this downside.
      
      1) It naturally bounds the total scan work to the live heap size at
      the start of a GC cycle. Allocating white does not, and thus depends
      entirely on assists to prevent the heap from growing faster than it
      can be scanned.
      
      2) It reduces the total amount of scan work per GC cycle by the size
      of newly allocated objects that are linked into the heap graph, since
      objects allocated black never need to be scanned.
      
      3) It reduces total write barrier work since more objects will already
      be black when they are linked into the heap graph.
      
      This gives a slight overall improvement in benchmarks.

      runtime: simplify/optimize allocate-black a bit · 64a26b79
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently allocating black switches to the system stack (which is
      probably a historical accident) and atomically updates the global
      bytes marked stat. Since we're about to depend on this much more,
      optimize it a bit by putting it back on the regular stack and updating
      the per-P bytes marked stat, which gets lazily folded into the global
      bytes marked stat.

      runtime: count black allocations toward scan work · 479501c1
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently we count black allocations toward the scannable heap size,
      but not toward the scan work we've done so far. This is clearly
      inconsistent (we have, in effect, scanned these allocations and since
      they're already black, we're not going to scan them again). Worse, it
      means we don't count black allocations toward the scannable heap size
      as of the *next* GC because this is based on the amount of scan work
      we did in this cycle.
      
      Fix this by counting black allocations as scan work. Currently the GC
      spends very little time in allocate-black mode, so this probably
      hasn't been a problem, but this will become important when we switch
      to always allocating black.

      testing: add matching of subtest · a683c385
      Marcel van Lohuizen authored
      Allows passing regexps per subtest to --test.run and --test.bench
      
      Note that the documentation explicitly states that the split regular
      expressions match the correpsonding parts (path components) of
      the bench/test identifier. This is intended and slightly different
      from the i'th RE matching the subtest/subbench at the respective
      level.  Picking this semantics allows guaranteeing that a test or
      benchmark identifier as printed by go test can be passed verbatim
      (possibly quoted) to, respectively, -run or -bench: subtests and
      subbenches might have a '/' in their name, causing a misaligment if
      their ID is passed to -run or -bench as is.
      This semantics has other benefits, but this is the main motivation.

      cmd/compile/internal/gc: fix return value offset for SSA backend on ARM · 508a424e
      Cherry Zhang authored
      Progress on SSA backend for ARM. Still not complete. It compiles a
      Fibonacci function, but the caller picked the return value from an
      incorrect offset. This CL adjusts it to match the stack frame layout
      for architectures with link register.
      
      Updates #15365.
