Currently the mspan limit field is set after allocSpan returns, *after*
the span has already been published to the GC (including the
conservative scanner). But the limit field is load-bearing, because it's
checked to filter out invalid pointers. A stale limit value could cause
a crash by having the conservative scanner access allocBits out of
bounds.
Fix this by setting the mspan limit field before publishing the span.
For large objects and arena chunks, we adjust the limit down after
allocSpan because we don't have access to the true object's size from
allocSpan. However this is safe, since we first initialize the limit to
something definitely safe (the actual span bounds) and only adjust it
down after. Adjusting it down has the benefit of more precise debug
output, but the window in which it's imprecise is also fine because a
single object (logically, with arena chunks) occupies the whole span, so
the 'invalid' part of the memory will just safely point back to that
object. We can't do this for smaller objects because the limit will
include space that does *not* contain any valid objects.
Fixes #74288.

Checking whether the current allocation needs to be profiled is
currently branch-y and weirdly a lot of code. The branches are
generally predictable, but it's a surprising number of instructions.
Part of the problem is that MemProfileRate is just a global that can be
set at any time, so we need to load it and check certain settings
explicitly. In an ideal world, we would just always subtract from
nextSample and have a single branch to take the slow path if we
subtract below zero.
If MemProfileRate were a function, we could trash all the nextSample
values intentionally in each mcache. This would be slow, but
MemProfileRate changes rarely while the malloc hot path is well, hot.
Unfortunate...
Although this ideal world is, AFAICT, impossible, we can still get
close. If we cache the value of MemProfileRate in each mcache, then we
can force malloc to take the slow path whenever MemProfileRate changes.
This does require two additional loads, but crucially, these loads are
independent of everything else in mallocgc. Furthermore, the branch
dependent on those loads is incredibly predictable in practice.
This CL on its own has little-to-no impact on mallocgc. But this
codepath is going to be duplicated in several places in the next CL, so
it'll pay to simplify it. Also, we're very much trying to remedy a
death-by-a-thousand-cuts situation, and malloc is currently still kind
of a monster -- it will not help if mallocgc isn't really streamlined
itself.
Lastly, there's a nice property now that all nextSample values get
immediately re-sampled when MemProfileRate changes.

This change adds an API to the runtime for arenas. A later CL can
potentially export it as an experimental API, but for now, just the
runtime implementation will suffice.
The purpose of arenas is to improve efficiency, primarily by allowing
for an application to manually free memory, thereby delaying garbage
collection. It comes with other potential performance benefits, such as
better locality, a better allocation strategy, and better handling of
interior pointers by the GC.
This implementation is based on one by danscales@google.com with a few
significant differences:
* The implementation lives entirely in the runtime (all layers).
* Arena chunks are the minimum of 8 MiB or the heap arena size. This
choice is made because in practice 64 MiB appears to be way too large
of an area for most real-world use-cases.
* Arena chunks are not unmapped, instead they're placed on an evacuation
list and when there are no pointers left pointing into them, they're
allowed to be reused.
* Reusing partially-used arena chunks no longer tries to find one used
by the same P first; it just takes the first one available.
* In order to ensure worst-case fragmentation is never worse than 25%,
only types and slice backing stores whose sizes are 1/4th the size of
a chunk or less may be used. Previously larger sizes, up to the size
of the chunk, were allowed.
* ASAN, MSAN, and the race detector are fully supported.
* Sets arena chunks to fault that were deferred at the end of mark
termination (a non-public patch once did this; I don't see a reason
not to continue that).

CL 377516 made it so that memory metrics are truly monotonic, but also
updated how heapLive tracked allocated memory to also be monotonic.
The result is that cached spans with allocated memory aren't fully
accounted for by the GC, causing it to make a worse assumption (the
exact mechanism is at this time unknown), resulting in a memory
regression, especially for smaller heaps.
This change is a partial revert of CL 377516 that makes heapLive a
non-monotonic overestimate again, which appears to resolve the
regression.

Right now we export alloc count metrics via the runtime/metrics package
and mark them as monotonic, but that's not actually true. As an
optimization, the runtime assumes a span is always fully allocated
before being uncached, and updates the accounting as such. In the rare
case that it's wrong, the span has enough information to back out what
did not get allocated.
This change uses 16 bits of padding in the mspan to house another field
that represents the amount of mspan slots filled just as the mspan is
cached. This is information is enough to get an exact count, allowing us
to make the metrics truly monotonic.

Currently, the runtime zeroes allocations in several ways. First, small
object spans are always zeroed if they come from mheap, and their slots
are zeroed later in mallocgc if needed. Second, large object spans
(objects that have their own spans) plumb the need for zeroing down into
mheap. Thirdly, large objects that have no pointers have their zeroing
delayed until after preemption is reenabled, but before returning in
mallocgc.
All of this has two consequences:
1. Spans for small objects that come from mheap are sometimes
unnecessarily zeroed, even if the mallocgc call that created them
doesn't need the object slot to be zeroed.
2. This is all messy and difficult to reason about.
This CL simplifies this code, resolving both (1) and (2). First, it
recognizes that zeroing in mheap is unnecessary for small object spans;
mallocgc and its callees in mcache and mcentral, by design, are *always*
able to deal with non-zeroed spans. They must, for they deal with
recycled spans all the time. Once this fact is made clear, the only
remaining use of zeroing in mheap is for large objects.
As a result, this CL lifts mheap zeroing for large objects into
mallocgc, to parallel all the other codepaths in mallocgc. This is makes
the large object allocation code less surprising.
Next, this CL sets the flag for the delayed zeroing explicitly in the one
case where it matters, and inverts and renames the flag from isZeroed to
delayZeroing.
Finally, it adds a check to make sure that only pointer-free allocations
take the delayed zeroing codepath, as an extra safety measure.

This change modifies the consistent stats implementation to keep the
per-P sequence counter on each P instead of each mcache. A valid mcache
is not available everywhere that we want to call e.g. allocSpan, as per
issue #42339. By decoupling these two, we can add a mechanism to allow
contexts without a P to update stats consistently.
In this CL, we achieve that with a mutex. In practice, it will be very
rare for an M to update these stats without a P. Furthermore, the stats
reader also only needs to hold the mutex across the update to "gen"
since once that changes, writers are free to continue updating the new
stats generation. Contention could thus only arise between writers
without a P, and as mentioned earlier, those should be rare.
A nice side-effect of this change is that the consistent stats acquire
and release API becomes simpler.

This change moves the responsibility of throwing if an mcache is not
available to the caller, because the inlining cost of throw is set very
high in the compiler. Even if it was reduced down to the cost of a usual
function call, it would still be too expensive, so just move it out.
This choice also makes sense in the context of #42339 since we're going
to have to handle the case where we don't have an mcache to update stats
in a few contexts anyhow.
Also, add getMCache to the list of functions that should be inlined to
prevent future regressions.
getMCache is called on the allocation fast path and because its not
inlined actually causes a significant regression (~10%) in some
microbenchmarks.

consistently with the memory stats. The one exception here is
tinyAllocs for which moving that into the global stats would incur
several atomic writes on the fast path. Microbenchmarks for just one CPU
core have shown a 50% loss in throughput. Since tiny allocation counnt
isn't exposed anyway and is always blindly added to both allocs and
frees, let that stay inconsistent and flush the tiny allocation count
every so often.

This change adds a global set of heap statistics which are similar
to existing memory statistics. The purpose of these new statistics
is to be able to read them and get a consistent result without stopping
the world. The goal is to eventually replace as many of the existing
memstats statistics with the sharded ones as possible.
The consistent memory statistics use a tailor-made synchronization
mechanism to allow writers (allocators) to proceed with minimal
synchronization by using a sequence counter and a global generation
counter to determine which set of statistics to update. Readers
increment the global generation counter to effectively grab a snapshot
of the statistics, and then iterate over all Ps using the sequence

To keep statistics fresh, the reader also has a responsibility to merge

These consistent statistics are computed, but otherwise unused for now.
Upcoming changes will integrate them with the rest of the codebase and

Now that local_scan is the last mcache-based statistic that is flushed
by purgecachedstats, and heap_scan and gcController.revise may be
interacted with concurrently, we don't need to flush heap_scan at
arbitrary locations where the heap is locked, and we don't need
purgecachedstats and cachestats anymore. Instead, we can flush
local_scan at the same time we update heap_live in refill, so the two
updates may share the same revise call.
Clean up unused functions, remove code that would cause the heap to get
locked in the allocSpan when it didn't need to (other than to flush
local_scan), and flush local_scan explicitly in a few important places.
Notably we need to flush local_scan whenever we flush the other stats,
but it doesn't need to be donated anywhere, so have releaseAll do the
flushing. Also, we need to flush local_scan before we set heap_scan at
the end of a GC, which was previously handled by cachestats. Just do so
explicitly -- it's not much code and it becomes a lot more clear why we
need to do so.

previously malloc stats were fairly scattered, and now they have one

out of allocSpan (which is an inappropriate place for it -- this

Furthermore, this change moves largeAlloc into mcache.go and makes it a

largeAlloc barely interacts with the mcache, it helps solidify the
mcache as the first allocation layer and provides a clear place to

This change is part of a move toward having stats be distributed, and
cleaning up some old code related to the stats.
Note that because there's no central source-of-truth, when an mcache
dies, it must donate its stats to another mcache. It's always safe to
donate to the mcache for the 0th P, so do that.

Currently mcentral is implemented as a couple of linked lists of spans
protected by a lock. Unfortunately this design leads to significant lock
contention.
The span ownership model is also confusing and complicated. In-use spans
jump between being owned by multiple sources, generally some combination
of a gcSweepBuf, a concurrent sweeper, an mcentral or an mcache.
So first to address contention, this change replaces those linked lists
with gcSweepBufs which have an atomic fast path. Then, we change up the
ownership model: a span may be simultaneously owned only by an mcentral
and the page reclaimer. Otherwise, an mcentral (which now consists of
sweep bufs), a sweeper, or an mcache are the sole owners of a span at
any given time. This dramatically simplifies reasoning about span
ownership in the runtime.
As a result of this new ownership model, sweeping is now driven by
walking over the mcentrals rather than having its own global list of
spans. Because we no longer have a global list and we traditionally
haven't used the mcentrals for large object spans, we no longer have
anywhere to put large objects. So, this change also makes it so that we
keep large object spans in the appropriate mcentral lists.
In terms of the static lock ranking, we add the spanSet spine locks in
pretty much the same place as the mcentral locks, since they have the
potential to be manipulated both on the allocation and sweep paths, like
the mcentral locks.
This new implementation is turned on by default via a feature flag
called go115NewMCentralImpl.

Currently there's an invariant in the runtime wherein the heap lock
can only be acquired on the system stack, otherwise a self-deadlock
could occur if the stack grows while the lock is held.
This invariant is upheld and documented in a number of situations (e.g.
allocManual, freeManual) but there are other places where the invariant
is either not maintained at all which risks self-deadlock (e.g.
setGCPercent, gcResetMarkState, allocmcache) or is maintained but
undocumented (e.g. gcSweep, readGCStats_m).
This change adds go:systemstack to any function that acquires the heap
lock or adds a systemstack(func() { ... }) around the critical section,
where appropriate. It also documents the invariant on (*mheap).lock
directly and updates repetitive documentation to refer to that comment.

Currently, all mcaches are flushed during STW mark termination as a
root marking job. This is currently necessary because all spans must
be out of these caches before sweeping begins to avoid races with
allocation and to ensure the spans are in the state expected by
sweeping. We do it as a root marking job because mcache flushing is
somewhat expensive and O(GOMAXPROCS) and this parallelizes the work
across the Ps. However, it's also the last remaining root marking job
performed during mark termination.
This CL moves mcache flushing out of mark termination and performs it
lazily. We keep track of the last sweepgen at which each mcache was
flushed and as each P is woken from STW, it observes that its mcache
is out-of-date and flushes it.
The introduces a complication for spans cached in stale mcaches. These
may now be observed by background or proportional sweeping or when
attempting to add a finalizer, but aren't in a stable state. For
example, they are likely to be on the wrong mcentral list. To fix
this, this CL extends the sweepgen protocol to also capture whether a
span is cached and, if so, whether or not its cache is stale. This
protocol blocks asynchronous sweeping from touching cached spans and
makes it the responsibility of mcache flushing to sweep the flushed
spans.
This eliminates the last mark termination root marking job, which
means we can now eliminate that entire infrastructure.
Updates #26903. This implements lazy mcache flushing.

Currently, we mix objects with pointers and objects without pointers
("noscan" objects) together in memory. As a result, for every object
we grey, we have to check that object's heap bits to find out if it's
noscan, which adds to the per-object cost of GC. This also hurts the
TLB footprint of the garbage collector because it decreases the
density of scannable objects at the page level.
This commit improves the situation by using separate spans for noscan
objects. This will allow a much simpler noscan check (in a follow up
CL), eliminate the need to clear the bitmap of noscan objects (in a
follow up CL), and improves TLB footprint by increasing the density of
scannable objects.
This is also a step toward eliminating dead bits, since the current
noscan check depends on checking the dead bit of the first word.
This has no effect on the heap size of the garbage benchmark.
We'll measure the performance change of this after the follow-up
optimizations.
This is a cherry-pick from dev.garbage commit d491e550c3. The only
non-trivial merge conflict was in updatememstats in mstats.go, where
we now have to separate the per-spanclass stats from the per-sizeclass
stats.

Currently fixalloc does not zero memory it reuses. This is dangerous
with the hybrid barrier if the type may contain heap pointers, since
it may cause us to observe a dead heap pointer on reuse. It's also
error-prone since it's the only allocator that doesn't zero on
allocation (mallocgc of course zeroes, but so do persistentalloc and
sysAlloc). It's also largely pointless: for mcache, the caller
immediately memclrs the allocation; and the two specials types are
tiny so there's no real cost to zeroing them.
Change fixalloc to zero allocations by default.
The only type we don't zero by default is mspan. This actually
requires that the spsn's sweepgen survive across freeing and
reallocating a span. If we were to zero it, the following race would
be possible:
1. The current sweepgen is 2. Span s is on the unswept list.
2. Direct sweeping sweeps span s, finds it's all free, and releases s
to the fixalloc.
3. Thread 1 allocates s from fixalloc. Suppose this zeros s, including
s.sweepgen.
4. Thread 1 calls s.init, which sets s.state to _MSpanDead.
5. On thread 2, background sweeping comes across span s in allspans
and cas's s.sweepgen from 0 (sg-2) to 1 (sg-1). Now it thinks it
owns it for sweeping. 6. Thread 1 continues initializing s.
Everything breaks.
I would like to fix this because it's obviously confusing, but it's a
subtle enough problem that I'm leaving it alone for now. The solution
may be to skip sweepgen 0, but then we have to think about wrap-around
much more carefully.

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.
