2023-02-06cmd/internal/obj: flag init functions in object fileThan McIntosh
Introduce a flag in the object file indicating whether a given function corresponds to a compiler-generated (not user-written) init function, such as "os.init" or "syscall.init". Add code to the compiler to fill in the correct value for the flag, and add support to the loader package in the linker for testing the flag. The new loader API is currently unused, but will be needed in the next CL in this stack. Updates #2559. Updates #36021. Updates #14840.

2022-11-10cmd/internal/obj: reduce allocations in object file writingCherry Mui
Some object file writer functions are structured like, having a local variable, setting fields, then passing it to a Write method which eventually calls io.Writer.Write. As the Write call is an interface call it escapes the parameter, which in turn causes the local variable to be heap allocated. To reduce allocation, use pre-allocated scratch space instead.

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.

2022-08-09all: use ":" for compiler generated symbolsCuong Manh Le
As it can't appear in user package paths. There is a hack for handling "go:buildid" and "type:*" on windows/386. Previously, windows/386 requires underscore prefix on external symbols, but that's only applied for SHOSTOBJ/SUNDEFEXT or cgo export symbols. "go.buildid" is STEXT, "type.*" is STYPE, thus they are not prefixed with underscore. In external linking mode, the external linker can't resolve them as external symbols. But we are lucky that they have "." in their name, so the external linker see them as Forwarder RVA exports. See: - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format#export-address-table - https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=ld/pe-dll.c;h=e7b82ba6ffadf74dc1b9ee71dc13d48336941e51;hb=HEAD#l972) This CL changes "." to ":" in symbols name, so theses symbols can not be found by external linker anymore. So a hacky way is adding the underscore prefix for these 2 symbols. I don't have enough knowledge to verify whether adding the underscore for all STEXT/STYPE symbols are fine, even if it could be, that would be done in future CL.

2022-05-20cmd/compile: intercept string compares in libFuzzer modeKhaled Yakdan
IR string compares as well as calls to string comparison functions such as `strings.EqualFold` are intercepted and the corresponding libFuzzer callbacks are invoked with the corresponding arguments. As a result, the compared strings will be added to libFuzzer’s table of recent compares, which feeds future mutations performed by the fuzzer and thus allow it to reach into branches guarded by string comparisons. The list of methods to intercept is maintained in `cmd/compile/internal/walk/expr.go` and can easily be extended to cover more standard library functions in the future.

No special case for the main package, as the main package cannot be only assembly code, and there is no way to tell if it is the main package from an assembly file.

The names are included in the object file so it is self-contained and tools (objdump, nm) can read the referenced symbol names. Including the names increases object file size.

We used to use SHA1 for content hashes, but CL 402595 changed all the “don't care” hashes to cmd/internal/notsha256 (negated SHA256). This made object files a little bit bigger: fmt.a on my Mac laptop grows from 910678 to 937612 bytes (+3%). To remove that growth, truncate the hash we use for these purposes to 128 bits (half a SHA256), and also use base64 instead of hex for encoding it when a string form is needed. This brings fmt.a down to 901706 bytes (-1% from original, -4% from current).

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.

2020-08-10[dev.link] use per package filenames to build pclntabJeremy Faller
In order to prevent renumbering of filenames in pclntab generation, use the per-package file list (previously only used for DWARF generation) as file-indices. This is the largest step to eliminate renumbering of filenames in pclntab. Note, this is probably not the final state of the file table within the object file. In this form, the linker loads all filenames for all objects. I'll move to storing the filenames as regular string symbols,and defaulting all string symbols to using the larger hash value to make generation of pcln simplest, and most memory friendly.

symbols For symbols of size 8 bytes or below, we can map them to 64-bit hash values using the identity function. There is no need to use longer and more expensive hash functions. For them, we introduce another pseudo-package, PkgIdxHashed64. It is like PkgIdxHashed except that the hash function is different. Note that the hash value is not affected with trailing zeros, e.g. "A" and "A\0\0\0" have the same hash value. This allows deduplicating a few more symbols. When deduplicating them, we need to keep the longer one.

This CL introduces content-addressable symbols (a.k.a. hashed symbols) to object files. Content-addressable symbols are identified and referenced by their content hashes, instead of by names. In the object file, a new pseudo-package index PkgIdxHashed is introduced, for content-addressable symbols, and a new block is added to store their hashes. The hashes are used by the linker to identify and deduplicate the symbols. For now, we only support content-addressable symbols that are always locally defined (i.e. no cross-package references). As a proof of concept, make string constant symbols content- addressable.

2020-06-03cmd/internal/goobj2: add referenced symbol names to object fileCherry Zhang
Currently, for symbols defined in other packages and referenced by index, we don't record its name in the object file, as the linker doesn't need the name, only the index. As a consequence, tools like objdump and nm also don't know the referenced symbol names and cannot dump it properly. This CL adds referenced symbol names to the object file. So the object file is self-contained. And tools can retrieve referenced symbol names properly. Tools now should work as good for new object files as for old object files. Fixes #38875.

This reverts CL 229246. For new indexed object files, in CL 229246 we added symbol index to tools (nm, objdump) output. This affects external tools that parse those outputs. And the added index doesn't look very nice. In this release we take it out. For future releases we may introduce a flag to tools (nm, objdump) and optionally dump the symbol index. For refererenced (not defined) indexed symbols, currently the symbol is still referenced only by index, not by name. The next CL will make the object file self-contained, so tools can dump the symbol names properly (as before). For #38875.

2020-04-24[dev.link] cmd/internal/goobj2: add index fingerprint to object fileCherry Zhang
The new object files use indices for symbol references, instead of names. Fundamental to the design, it requires that the importing and imported packages have consistent view of symbol indices. The Go command should already ensure this, when using "go build". But in case it goes wrong, it could lead to obscure errors like run-time crashes. It would be better to check the index consistency at build time. To do that, we add a fingerprint to each object file, which is a hash of symbol indices. In the object file it records the fingerprints of all imported packages, as well as its own fingerprint. At link time, the linker checks that a package's fingerprint matches the fingerprint recorded in the importing packages, and issue an error if they don't match. This CL does the first part: introducing the fingerprint in the object file, and propagating fingerprints through importing/exporting by the compiler. It is not yet used by the linker. Next CL will do.
