runtime/internal: clean up completely

2025-03-11T19:26:32Z

We've been slowly moving packages from runtime/internal to internal/runtime. For now, runtime/internal only has test packages. It's a good chance to clean up the references to runtime/internal in the toolchain. For #65355.

runtime: remove the restriction that write barrier ptrs come in pairs

2023-02-17T22:19:26Z

Future CLs will remove the invariant that pointers are always put in the write barrier in pairs. The behavior of the assembly code changes a bit, where instead of writing the pointers unconditionally and then checking for overflow, check for overflow first and then write the pointers. Also changed the write barrier flush function to not take the src/dst as arguments.

Move this knob from a binary-startup thing to a build-time thing. This will enable followon optmizations to the write barrier.

runtime/internal/atomic: add write barrier-enabled pointer atomics

UnsafePointer.Store, UnsafePointer.CompareAndSwap were missing, although .StoreNoWB and .CompareAndSwapNoWB existed. Same for Pointer[T}. Do the linkname tricks necessary to add those methods.

runtime: eliminate all writebarrierptr* calls

2018-02-13T16:34:45Z

Calls to writebarrierptr can simply be actual pointer writes. Calls to writebarrierptr_prewrite need to go through the write barrier buffer. Updates #22460.

runtime: perform write barrier before pointer write

2016-10-28T20:47:52Z

Currently, we perform write barriers after performing pointer writes. At the moment, it simply doesn't matter what order this happens in, as long as they appear atomic to GC. But both the hybrid barrier and ROC are going to require a pre-write write barrier. For the hybrid barrier, this is important because the barrier needs to observe both the current value of the slot and the value that will be written to it. (Alternatively, the caller could do the write and pass in the old value, but it seems easier and more useful to just swap the order of the barrier and the write.) For ROC, this is necessary because, if the pointer write is going to make the pointer reachable to some goroutine that it currently is not visible to, the garbage collector must take some special action before that pointer becomes more broadly visible. This commits swaps pointer writes around so the write barrier occurs before the pointer write. The main subtlety here is bulk memory writes. Currently, these copy to the destination first and then use the pointer bitmap of the destination to find the copied pointers and invoke the write barrier. This is necessary because the source may not have a pointer bitmap. To handle these, we pass both the source and the destination to the bulk memory barrier, which uses the pointer bitmap of the destination, but reads the pointer values from the source. Updates #17503. Change-Id: I78ecc0c5c94ee81c29019c305b3d232069294a55 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/31763 Reviewed-by: Rick Hudson
