2026-03-18runtime,runtime/cgo: do cgo thread initialization in Go on Windowsqmuntal
Windows doesn't require any special handling for cgo threads. They can be created in the same way as in non-cgo code. In fact, the code to create threads in runtime and in runtime/cgo is basically the same, except that the latter does some retries on failure.

2025-09-25runtime: acquire/release C TSAN lock when calling cgo symbolizer/tracebackerMichael Pratt
When calling into C via cmd/cgo, the generated code calls _cgo_tsan_acquire / _cgo_tsan_release around the C call to report a dummy lock to the C/C++ TSAN runtime. This is necessary because the C/C++ TSAN runtime does not understand synchronization within Go and would otherwise report false positive race reports. See the comment in cmd/cgo/out.go for more details. Various C functions in runtime/cgo also contain manual calls to _cgo_tsan_acquire/release where necessary to suppress race reports. However, the cgo symbolizer and cgo traceback functions called from callCgoSymbolizer and cgoContextPCs, respectively, do not have any instrumentation [1]. They call directly into user C functions with no TSAN instrumentation. This means they have an opportunity to report false race conditions. The most direct way is via their argument. Both are passed a pointer to a struct stored on the Go stack, and both write to fields of the struct. If two calls are passed the same pointer from different threads, the C TSAN runtime will think this is a race. This is simple to achieve for the cgo symbolizer function, which the new regression test does. callCgoSymbolizer is called on the standard goroutine stack, so the argument is a pointer into the goroutine stack. If the goroutine moves Ms between two calls, it will look like a race. On the other hand, cgoContextPCs is called on the system stack. Each M has a unique system stack, so for it to pass the same argument pointer on different threads would require the first M to exit, free its stack, and the same region of address space to be used as the stack for a new M. Theoretically possible, but quite unlikely. Both of these are addressed by providing a C wrapper in runtime/cgo that calls _cgo_tsan_acquire/_cgo_tsan_release around calls to the symbolizer and traceback functions. There is a lot of room for future cleanup here. Most runtime/cgo functions have manual instrumentation in their C implementation. That could be removed in favor of instrumentation in the runtime. We could even theoretically remove the instrumentation from cmd/cgo and move it to cgocall. None of these are necessary, but may make things more consistent and easier to follow. [1] Note that the cgo traceback function called from the signal handler via x_cgo_callers _does_ have manual instrumentation. Fixes #73949.

2023-05-17runtime/cgo: store M for C-created thread in pthread keyCherry Mui
This reapplies CL 485500, with a fix drafted in CL 492987 incorporated. CL 485500 is reverted due to #60004 and #60007. #60004 is fixed in CL 492743. #60007 is fixed in CL 492987 (incorporated in this CL). [Original CL 485500 description] This reapplies CL 481061, with the followup fixes in CL 482975, CL 485315, and CL 485316 incorporated. CL 481061, by doujiang24 <doujiang24@gmail.com>, speed up C to Go calls by binding the M to the C thread. See below for its description. CL 482975 is a followup fix to a C declaration in testprogcgo. CL 485315 is a followup fix for x_cgo_getstackbound on Illumos. CL 485316 is a followup cleanup for ppc64 assembly. CL 479915 passed the G to _cgo_getstackbound for direct updates to gp.stack.lo. A G can be reused on a new thread after the previous thread exited. This could trigger the C TSAN race detector because it couldn't see the synchronization in Go (lockextra) preventing the same G from being used on multiple threads at the same time. We work around this by passing the address of a stack variable to _cgo_getstackbound rather than the G. The stack is generally unique per thread, so TSAN won't see the same address from multiple threads. Even if stacks are reused across threads by pthread, C TSAN should see the synchonization in the stack allocator. A regression test is added to misc/cgo/testsanitizer. [Original CL 481061 description] This reapplies CL 392854, with the followup fixes in CL 479255, CL 479915, and CL 481057 incorporated. CL 392854, by doujiang24 <doujiang24@gmail.com>, speed up C to Go calls by binding the M to the C thread. See below for its description. CL 479255 is a followup fix for a small bug in ARM assembly code. CL 479915 is another followup fix to address C to Go calls after the C code uses some stack, but that CL is also buggy. CL 481057, by Michael Knyszek, is a followup fix for a memory leak bug of CL 479915. [Original CL 392854 description] In a C thread, it's necessary to acquire an extra M by using needm while invoking a Go function from C. But, needm and dropm are heavy costs due to the signal-related syscalls. So, we change to not dropm while returning back to C, which means binding the extra M to the C thread until it exits, to avoid needm and dropm on each C to Go call. Instead, we only dropm while the C thread exits, so the extra M won't leak. When invoking a Go function from C: Allocate a pthread variable using pthread_key_create, only once per shared object, and register a thread-exit-time destructor. And store the g0 of the current m into the thread-specified value of the pthread key, only once per C thread, so that the destructor will put the extra M back onto the extra M list while the C thread exits. When returning back to C: Skip dropm in cgocallback, when the pthread variable has been created, so that the extra M will be reused the next time invoke a Go function from C. This is purely a performance optimization. The old version, in which needm & dropm happen on each cgo call, is still correct too, and we have to keep the old version on systems with cgo but without pthreads, like Windows. This optimization is significant, and the specific value depends on the OS system and CPU, but in general, it can be considered as 10x faster, for a simple Go function call from a C thread. For the newly added BenchmarkCGoInCThread, some benchmark results: 1. it's 28x faster, from 3395 ns/op to 121 ns/op, in darwin OS & Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2. it's 6.5x faster, from 1495 ns/op to 230 ns/op, in Linux OS & Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 0 @ 2.30GHz [CL 479915 description] Currently, when C calls into Go the first time, we grab an M using needm, which sets m.g0's stack bounds using the SP. We don't know how big the stack is, so we simply assume 32K. Previously, when the Go function returns to C, we drop the M, and the next time C calls into Go, we put a new stack bound on the g0 based on the current SP. After CL 392854, we don't drop the M, and the next time C calls into Go, we reuse the same g0, without recomputing the stack bounds. If the C code uses quite a bit of stack space before calling into Go, the SP may be well below the 32K stack bound we assumed, so the runtime thinks the g0 stack overflows. This CL makes needm get a more accurate stack bound from pthread. (In some platforms this may still be a guess as we don't know exactly where we are in the C stack), but it is probably better than simply assuming 32K. [CL 492987 description] On the first call into Go from a C thread, currently we set the g0 stack's high bound imprecisely based on the SP. With CL 485500, we keep the M and don't recompute the stack bounds when it calls into Go again. If the first call is made when the C thread uses some deep stack, but a subsequent call is made with a shallower stack, the SP may be above g0.stack.hi. This is usually okay as we don't check usually stack.hi. One place where we do check for stack.hi is in the signal handler, in adjustSignalStack. In particular, C TSAN delivers signals on the g0 stack (instead of the usual signal stack). If the SP is above g0.stack.hi, we don't see it is on the g0 stack, and throws. This CL makes it get an accurate stack upper bound with the pthread API (on the platforms where it is available). Also add some debug print for the "handler not on signal stack" throw. Fixes #51676. Fixes #59294. Fixes #59678. Fixes #60007.

2020-10-26runtime,cmd/cgo: simplify C -> Go call pathAustin Clements
This redesigns the way calls work from C to exported Go functions. It removes several steps from the call path, makes cmd/cgo no longer sensitive to the Go calling convention, and eliminates the use of reflectcall from cgo. In order to avoid generating a large amount of FFI glue between the C and Go ABIs, the cgo tool has long depended on generating a C function that marshals the arguments into a struct, and then the actual ABI switch happens in functions with fixed signatures that simply take a pointer to this struct. In a way, this CL simply pushes this idea further. Currently, the cgo tool generates this argument struct in the exact layout of the Go stack frame and depends on reflectcall to unpack it into the appropriate Go call (even though it's actually reflectcall'ing a function generated by cgo). In this CL, we decouple this struct from the Go stack layout. Instead, cgo generates a Go function that takes the struct, unpacks it, and calls the exported function. Since this generated function has a generic signature (like the rest of the call path), we don't need reflectcall and can instead depend on the Go compiler itself to implement the call to the exported Go function. One complication is that syscall.NewCallback on Windows, which converts a Go function into a C function pointer, depends on cgocallback's current dynamic calling approach since the signatures of the callbacks aren't known statically. For this specific case, we continue to depend on reflectcall. Really, the current approach makes some overly simplistic assumptions about translating the C ABI to the Go ABI. Now we're at least in a much better position to do a proper ABI translation. For comparison, the current cgo call path looks like: GoF (generated C function) -> crosscall2 (in cgo/asm_*.s) -> _cgoexp_GoF (generated Go function) -> cgocallback (in asm_*.s) -> cgocallback_gofunc (in asm_*.s) -> cgocallbackg (in cgocall.go) -> cgocallbackg1 (in cgocall.go) -> reflectcall (in asm_*.s) -> _cgoexpwrap_GoF (generated Go function) -> p.GoF Now the call path looks like: GoF (generated C function) -> crosscall2 (in cgo/asm_*.s) -> cgocallback (in asm_*.s) -> cgocallbackg (in cgocall.go) -> cgocallbackg1 (in cgocall.go) -> _cgoexp_GoF (generated Go function) -> p.GoF Notably: 1. We combine _cgoexp_GoF and _cgoexpwrap_GoF and move the combined operation to the end of the sequence. This combined function also handles reflectcall's previous role. 2. We combined cgocallback and cgocallback_gofunc since the only purpose of having both was to convert a raw PC into a Go function value. We instead construct the Go function value in cgocallbackg1. 3. cgocallbackg1 no longer reaches backwards through the stack to get the arguments to cgocallback_gofunc. Instead, we just pass the arguments down. 4. Currently, we need an explicit msanwrite to mark the results struct as written because reflectcall doesn't do this. Now, the results are written by regular Go assignments, so the Go compiler generates the necessary MSAN annotations. This also means we no longer need to track the size of the arguments frame. Updates #40724, since now we don't need to teach cgo about the register ABI or change how it uses reflectcall.

2018-11-12runtime: avoid variable/function alias on runtime._cgo_panic_internalAustin Clements
The symbol runtime._cgo_panic_internal is defined both as a function in package runtime and as a (linknamed) variable in package runtime/cgo. Since we're introducing function ABIs, this is going to cause problems with resolving the ABI-marked function symbol with the unmarked data symbol. It's also confusing. Fix this by declaring runtime._cgo_panic_internal as a function in runtime/cgo as well and extracting the PC from the function object. For #27539.

2016-05-25cmd/cgo, runtime, runtime/cgo: TSAN support for mallocIan Lance Taylor
Acquire and release the TSAN synchronization point when calling malloc, just as we do when calling any other C function. If we don't do this, TSAN will report false positive errors about races calling malloc and free. We used to have a special code path for malloc and free, going through the runtime functions cmalloc and cfree. The special code path for cfree was no longer used even before this CL. This CL stops using the special code path for malloc, because there is no place along that path where we could conditionally insert the TSAN synchronization. This CL removes the support for the special code path for both functions. Instead, cgo now automatically generates the malloc function as though it were referenced as C.malloc. We need to automatically generate it even if C.malloc is not called, even if malloc and size_t are not declared, to support cgo-provided functions like C.CString.

Add support for the context function set by runtime.SetCgoTraceback. The context function was added in CL 17761, without support. This CL is the support. This CL has not been tested for real C code, as a working context function for C code requires unwind support that does not seem to exist. I wanted to get the CL out before the freeze. I apologize for the length of this CL. It's mostly plumbing, but unfortunately the plumbing is processor-specific.

This is Part 2 of the change, see Part 1 here: in https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/7692/ Suggested by iant@, we use the library initialization entry point to: - create a new OS thread and run the "regular" runtime init stack on that thread - return immediately from the main (i.e., loader) thread - at the first CGO invocation, we wait for the runtime initialization to complete. The above mechanism is implemented only on linux_amd64. Next step is to support it on linux_arm. Other platforms don't yet support shared library compiling/linking, but we intend to use the same strategy there as well.
