      [dev.garbage] runtime: cleanup and optimize span.base() · f8d0d4fd
      Rick Hudson authored
      Prior to this CL the base of a span was calculated in various
      places using shifts or calls to base(). This CL now
      always calls base() which has been optimized to calculate the
      base of the span when the span is initialized and store that
      value in the span structure.

      [dev.garbage] runtime: remove heapBitsSweepSpan · 8dda1c4c
      Rick Hudson authored
      Prior to this CL the sweep phase was responsible for locating
      all objects that were about to be freed and calling a function
      to process the object. This was done by the function
      heapBitsSweepSpan. Part of processing included calls to
      tracefree and msanfree as well as counting how many objects
      were freed.
      
      The calls to tracefree and msanfree have been moved into the
      gcmalloc routine and called when the object is about to be
      reallocated. The counting of free objects has been optimized
      using an array based popcnt algorithm and if all the objects
      in a span are free then span is freed.
      
      Similarly the code to locate the next free object has been
      optimized to use an array based ctz (count trailing zero).
      Various hot paths in the allocation logic have been optimized.
      
      At this point the garbage benchmark is within 3% of the 1.6
      release.

      [dev.garbage] runtime: add bit and cache ctz64 (count trailing zero) · 40934815
      Rick Hudson authored
      Add to each span a 64 bit cache (allocCache) of the allocBits
      at freeindex. allocCache is shifted such that the lowest bit
      corresponds to the bit freeindex. allocBits uses a 0 to
      indicate an object is free, on the other hand allocCache
      uses a 1 to indicate an object is free. This facilitates
      ctz64 (count trailing zero) which counts the number of 0s
      trailing the least significant 1. This is also the index of
      the least significant 1.
      
      Each span maintains a freeindex indicating the boundary
      between allocated objects and unallocated objects. allocCache
      is shifted as freeindex is incremented such that the low bit
      in allocCache corresponds to the bit a freeindex in the
      allocBits array.
      
      Currently ctz64 is written in Go using a for loop so it is
      not very efficient. Use of the hardware instruction will
      follow. With this in mind comparisons of the garbage
      benchmark are as follows.
      
      1.6 release        2.8 seconds
      dev:garbage branch 3.1 seconds.
      
      Profiling shows the go implementation of ctz64 takes up
      1% of the total time.

      [dev.garbage] runtime: logic that uses count trailing zero (ctz) · 44fe90d0
      Rick Hudson authored
      Most (all?) processors that Go supports supply a hardware
      instruction that takes a byte and returns the number
      of zeros trailing the first 1 encountered, or 8
      if no ones are found. This is the index within the
      byte of the first 1 encountered. CTZ should improve the
      performance of the nextFreeIndex function.
      
      Since nextFreeIndex wants the next unmarked (0) bit
      a bit-wise complement is needed before calling ctz.
      Furthermore unmarked bits associated with previously
      allocated objects need to be ignored. Instead of writing
      a 1 as we allocate the code masks all bits less than the
      freeindex after loading the byte.
      
      While this CL does not actual execute a CTZ instruction
      it supplies a ctz function with the appropiate signature
      along with the logic to execute it.

      [dev.garbage] runtime: allocate directly from GC mark bits · 3479b065
      Rick Hudson authored
      Instead of building a freelist from the mark bits generated
      by the GC this CL allocates directly from the mark bits.
      
      The approach moves the mark bits from the pointer/no pointer
      heap structures into their own per span data structures. The
      mark/allocation vectors consist of a single mark bit per
      object. Two vectors are maintained, one for allocation and
      one for the GC's mark phase. During the GC cycle's sweep
      phase the interpretation of the vectors is swapped. The
      mark vector becomes the allocation vector and the old
      allocation vector is cleared and becomes the mark vector that
      the next GC cycle will use.
      
      Marked entries in the allocation vector indicate that the
      object is not free. Each allocation vector maintains a boundary
      between areas of the span already allocated from and areas
      not yet allocated from. As objects are allocated this boundary
      is moved until it reaches the end of the span. At this point
      further allocations will be done from another span.
      
      Since we no longer sweep a span inspecting each freed object
      the responsibility for maintaining pointer/scalar bits in
      the heapBitMap containing is now the responsibility of the
      the routines doing the actual allocation.
      
      This CL is functionally complete and ready for performance
      tuning.

      [dev.garbage] runtime: mark/allocation helper functions · dc65a82e
      Rick Hudson authored
      The gcmarkBits is a bit vector used by the GC to mark
      reachable objects. Once a GC cycle is complete the gcmarkBits
      swap places with the allocBits. allocBits is then used directly
      by malloc to locate free objects, thus avoiding the
      construction of a linked free list. This CL introduces a set
      of helper functions for manipulating gcmarkBits and allocBits
      that will be used by later CLs to realize the actual
      algorithm. Minimal attempts have been made to optimize these
      helper routines.

      runtime: don't burn CPU unnecessarily · 475d113b
      Dmitry Vyukov authored
      Two GC-related functions, scang and casgstatus, wait in an active spin loop.
      Active spinning is never a good idea in user-space. Once we wait several
      times more than the expected wait time, something unexpected is happenning
      (e.g. the thread we are waiting for is descheduled or handling a page fault)
      and we need to yield to OS scheduler. Moreover, the expected wait time is
      very high for these functions: scang wait time can be tens of milliseconds,
      casgstatus can be hundreds of microseconds. It does not make sense to spin
      even for that time.
      
      go install -a std profile on a 4-core machine shows that 11% of time is spent
      in the active spin in scang:
      
        6.12%    compile  compile                [.] runtime.scang
        3.27%    compile  compile                [.] runtime.readgstatus
        1.72%    compile  compile                [.] runtime/internal/atomic.Load
      
      The active spin also increases tail latency in the case of the slightest
      oversubscription: GC goroutines spend whole quantum in the loop instead of
      executing user code.
      
      Here is scang wait time histogram during go install -a std:

      Ideally we eliminate the waiting by switching to async
      state machine for GC, but for now just yield to OS scheduler
      after a reasonable wait time.
      
      To choose yielding parameters I've measured
      golang.org/x/benchmarks/http tail latencies with different yield
      delays and oversubscription levels.

      All numbers are on 8 cores and with GOGC=10 (http benchmark has
      tiny heap, few goroutines and low allocation rate, so by default
      GC barely affects tail latency).
      
      10us/5us yield delays seem to provide a reasonable compromise
      and give 5-10% tail latency reduction. That's what used in this change.

      runtime: sleep less when we can do work · 3b246fa8
      Dmitry Vyukov authored
      Usleep(100) in runqgrab negatively affects latency and throughput
      of parallel application. We are sleeping instead of doing useful work.
      This is effect is particularly visible on windows where minimal
      sleep duration is 1-15ms.
      
      Reduce sleep from 100us to 3us and use osyield on windows.
      Sync chan send/recv takes ~50ns, so 3us gives us ~50x overshoot.

      cmd/compile: export inlined function bodies · a9ea36af
      Robert Griesemer authored
      Completed implementation for exporting inlined functions
      using the new binary export format. This change passes
      (export GO_GCFLAGS=-newexport; make all.bash) but for
      gc's builtin_test.go which we need to adjust before enabling
      this code by default.
      
      For a high-level description of the export format see the
      comment at the top of bexport.go.
      
      Major changes:
      
      1) The export format for the platform independent export data
         changed: When we export inlined function bodies, additional
         objects (other functions, types, etc.) that are referred to
         by the function bodies will need to be exported. While this
         doesn't affect the platform-independent portion directly, it
         adds more objects to the exportlist while we are exporting.
         Instead of trying to sort the objects into groups, just export
         objects as they appear in the export list. This is slightly
         less compact (one extra byte per object), but it is simpler
         and much more flexible.
      
      2) The export format contains now three sections: 1) The plat-
         form independent objects, 2) the objects pulled in for export
         via inlined function bodies, and 3) the inlined function bodies.
      
      3) Completed the exporting and importing code for inlined function
         bodies. The format is completely compiler-specific and easily
         changeable w/o affecting other tools. There is still quite a
         bit of room for denser encoding. This can happen at any time
         in the future.
      
      This change contains also the adjustments for go/internal/gcimporter,
      necessary because of the export format change 1) mentioned above.
      
      For #13241.
