2024-08-09cmd/compile: add basic wasmexport supportCherry Mui
This CL adds a compiler directive go:wasmexport, which applies to a Go function and makes it an exported function of the Wasm module being built, so it can be called directly from the host. As proposed in #65199, parameter and result types are limited to 32-bit and 64-bit integers and floats, and there can be at most one result. As the Go and Wasm calling conventions are different, for a wasmexport function we generate a wrapper function does the ABI conversion at compile time. Currently this CL only adds basic support. In particular, - it only supports executable mode, i.e. the Go wasm module calls into the host via wasmimport, which then calls back to Go via wasmexport. Library (c-shared) mode is not implemented yet. - only supports wasip1, not js. - if the exported function unwinds stacks (goroutine switch, stack growth, etc.), it probably doesn't work. TODO: support stack unwinding, c-shared mode, js. For #65199.

2024-05-15cmd/link: disallow pull-only linknamesCherry Mui
As mentioned in CL 584598, linkname is a mechanism that, when abused, can break API integrity and even safety of Go programs. CL 584598 is a first step to restrict the use of linknames, by implementing a blocklist. This CL takes a step further, tightening up the restriction by allowing linkname references ("pull") only when the definition side explicitly opts into it, by having a linkname on the definition (possibly to itself). This way, it is at least clear on the definition side that the symbol, despite being unexported, is accessed outside of the package. Unexported symbols without linkname can now be actually private. This is similar to the symbol visibility rule used by gccgo for years (which defines unexported non-linknamed symbols as C static symbols). As there can be pull-only linknames in the wild that may be broken by this change, we currently only enforce this rule for symbols defined in the standard library. Push linknames are added in the standard library to allow things build. Linkname references to external (non-Go) symbols are still allowed, as their visibility is controlled by the C symbol visibility rules and enforced by the C (static or dynamic) linker. Assembly symbols are treated similar to linknamed symbols. This is controlled by -checklinkname linker flag, currently not enabled by default. A follow-up CL will enable it by default.

2024-05-10cmd/compile, cmd/link: disallow linkname of some newly added internal functionsCherry Mui
Go API is defined through exported symbols. When a package is imported, the compiler ensures that only exported symbols can be accessed, and the go command ensures that internal packages cannot be imported. This ensures API integrity. But there is a hole: using linkname, one can access internal or non-exported symbols. Linkname is a mechanism to give access of a symbol to a package without adding it to the public API. It is intended for coupled packages to share some implementation details, or to break circular dependencies, and both "push" (definition) and "pull" (reference) sides are controlled, so they can be updated in sync. Nevertheless, it is abused as a mechanism to reach into internal details of other packages uncontrolled by the user, notably the runtime. As the other package evolves, the code often breaks, because the linknamed symbol may no longer exist, or change its signature or semantics. This CL adds a mechanism to enforce the integrity of linknames. Generally, "push" linkname is allowed, as the package defining the symbol explicitly opt in for access outside of the package. "Pull" linkname is checked and only allowed in some circumstances. Given that there are existing code that use "pull"-only linkname to access other package's internals, disallowing it completely is too much a change at this point in the release cycle. For a start, implement a hard-coded blocklist, which contains some newly added internal functions that, if used inappropriately, may break memory safety or runtime integrity. All blocked symbols are newly added in Go 1.23. So existing code that builds with Go 1.22 will continue to build. For the implementation, when compiling a package, we mark linknamed symbols in the current package with an attribute. At link time, marked linknamed symbols are checked against the blocklist. Care is taken so it distinguishes a linkname reference in the current package vs. a reference of a linkname from another package and propagated to the current package (e.g. through inlining or instantiation). Symbol references in assembly code are similar to linknames, and are treated similarly.

2022-10-14cmd/compile,cmd/link,runtime: add start line numbers to func metadataMichael Pratt
This adds the function "start line number" to runtime._func and runtime.inlinedCall objects. The "start line number" is the line number of the func keyword or TEXT directive for assembly. Subtracting the start line number from PC line number provides the relative line offset of a PC from the the start of the function. This helps with source stability by allowing code above the function to move without invalidating samples within the function. Encoding start line rather than relative lines directly is convenient because the pprof format already contains a start line field. This CL uses a straightforward encoding of explictly including a start line field in every _func and inlinedCall. It is possible that we could compress this further in the future. e.g., functions with a prologue usually have <line of PC 0> == <start line>. In runtime.test, 95% of functions have <line of PC 0> == <start line>. According to bent, this is geomean +0.83% binary size vs master and -0.31% binary size vs 1.19. Note that //line directives can change the file and line numbers arbitrarily. The encoded start line is as adjusted by //line directives. Since this can change in the middle of a function, `line - start line` offset calculations may not be meaningful if //line directives are in use. For #55022.

2021-03-05cmd/internal/goobj: store relocation type as uint16Cherry Zhang
Currently, relocation type is stored as uint8 in object files, as Go relocations do not exceed 255. In the linker, however, it is used as a 16-bit type, because external relocations can exceed 255. The linker has to store the extra byte in a side table. This complicates many things. Just store it as uint16 in object files. This simplifies things, with a small cost of increasing the object file sizes. before after hello.o 1672 1678 runtime.a 7927784 8056194 Change-Id: I313cf44ad0b8b3b76e35055ae55d911ff35e3158 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/268477 Trust: Cherry Zhang <cherryyz@google.com> Run-TryBot: Cherry Zhang <cherryyz@google.com> TryBot-Result: Go Bot <gobot@golang.org> Reviewed-by: Than McIntosh <thanm@google.com>

2021-02-19cmd/asm, cmd/link, runtime: introduce FuncInfo flag bitsRuss Cox
The runtime traceback code has its own definition of which functions mark the top frame of a stack, separate from the TOPFRAME bits that exist in the assembly and are passed along in DWARF information. It's error-prone and redundant to have two different sources of truth. This CL provides the actual TOPFRAME bits to the runtime, so that the runtime can use those bits instead of reinventing its own category. This CL also adds a new bit, SPWRITE, which marks functions that write directly to SP (anything but adding and subtracting constants). Such functions must stop a traceback, because the traceback has no way to rederive the SP on entry. Again, the runtime has its own definition which is mostly correct, but also missing some functions. During ordinary goroutine context switches, such functions do not appear on the stack, so the incompleteness in the runtime usually doesn't matter. But profiling signals can arrive at any moment, and the runtime may crash during traceback if it attempts to unwind an SP-writing frame and gets out-of-sync with the actual stack. The runtime contains code to try to detect likely candidates but again it is incomplete. Deriving the SPWRITE bit automatically from the actual assembly code provides the complete truth, and passing it to the runtime lets the runtime use it. This CL is part of a stack adding windows/arm64 support (#36439), intended to land in the Go 1.17 cycle. This CL is, however, not windows/arm64-specific. It is cleanup meant to make the port (and future ports) easier.

2020-12-16cmd/internal/goobj: fix buglet in object file readerThan McIntosh
The code in the new (introduced in 1.15) Go object file reader was casting a pointer-mmaped-memory into a large array prior to performing a read of the relocations section: return (*[1<<20]Reloc)(unsafe.Pointer(&r.b[off]))[:n:n] For very large object files, this artificial array isn't large enough (that is, there are more than 1048576 relocs to read), so update the code to use a larger artifical array size. Fixes #41621.
