In the past badsignal would crash the program. In
https://golang.org/cl/10757044 badsignal was changed to call sigsend,
to fix issue #3250. The effect of this was that when a non-Go thread
received a signal, and os/signal.Notify was not being used to check
for occurrences of the signal, the signal was ignored.
This changes the code so that if os/signal.Notify is not being used,
then the signal handler is reset to what it was, and the signal is
raised again. This lets non-Go threads handle the signal as they
wish. In particular, it means that a segmentation violation in a
non-Go thread will ordinarily crash the process, as it should.
Fixes#10139.
Update #11794.

Previously the extra m needed for cgo callbacks was created on the
first callback. This works for cgo, however the cgocallback mechanism
is also borrowed by badsignal which can run before any cgo calls are
made.
Now we initialize the extra M at runtime startup before any signal
handlers are registered, so badsignal cannot be called until the
extra M is ready.
Updates #10207.

There is currently no way to ignore signals using the os/signal package.
It is possible to catch a signal and do nothing but this is not the same
as ignoring it. The new function Ignore allows a set of signals to be
ignored. The new function Reset allows the initial handlers for a set of
signals to be restored.
Fixes#5572

This change is an implementation of the signal
runtime and os/signal package on Plan 9.
Contrary to Unix, on Plan 9 a signal is called
a note and is represented by a string.
For this reason, the sigsend and signal_recv
functions had to be reimplemented specifically
for Plan 9.
In order to reuse most of the code and internal
interface of the os/signal package, the note
strings are mapped to integers.
Thanks to Russ Cox for the early review.

Some libraries, for example, OpenBLAS, create work threads in a global constructor.
If we're doing cpu profiling, it's possible that SIGPROF might come to some of the
worker threads before we make our first cgo call. Cgocallback used to terminate the
process when that happens, but it's better to miss a couple profiling signals than
to abort in this case.
Fixes#9456.

Rename "gothrow" to "throw" now that the C version of "throw"
is no longer needed.
This change is purely mechanical except in panic.go where the
old version of "throw" has been deleted.

Scalararg and ptrarg are not "signal safe".
Go code filling them out can be interrupted by a signal,
and then the signal handler runs, and if it also ends up
in Go code that uses scalararg or ptrarg, now the old
values have been smashed.
For the pieces of code that do need to run in a signal handler,
we introduced onM_signalok, which is really just onM
except that the _signalok is meant to convey that the caller
asserts that scalarg and ptrarg will be restored to their old
values after the call (instead of the usual behavior, zeroing them).
Scalararg and ptrarg are also untyped and therefore error-prone.
Go code can always pass a closure instead of using scalararg
and ptrarg; they were only really necessary for C code.
And there's no more C code.
For all these reasons, delete scalararg and ptrarg, converting
the few remaining references to use closures.
Once those are gone, there is no need for a distinction between
onM and onM_signalok, so replace both with a single function
equivalent to the current onM_signalok (that is, it can be called
on any of the curg, g0, and gsignal stacks).
The name onM and the phrase 'm stack' are misnomers,
because on most system an M has two system stacks:
the main thread stack and the signal handling stack.
Correct the misnomer by naming the replacement function systemstack.
Fix a few references to "M stack" in code.
The main motivation for this change is to eliminate scalararg/ptrarg.
Rick and I have already seen them cause problems because
the calling sequence m.ptrarg[0] = p is a heap pointer assignment,
so it gets a write barrier. The write barrier also uses onM, so it has
all the same problems as if it were being invoked by a signal handler.
We worked around this by saving and restoring the old values
and by calling onM_signalok, but there's no point in keeping this nice
home for bugs around any longer.
This CL also changes funcline to return the file name as a result
instead of filling in a passed-in *string. (The *string signature is
left over from when the code was written in and called from C.)
That's arguably an unrelated change, except that once I had done
the ptrarg/scalararg/onM cleanup I started getting false positives
about the *string argument escaping (not allowed in package runtime).
The compiler is wrong, but the easiest fix is to write the code like
Go code instead of like C code. I am a bit worried that the compiler
is wrong because of some use of uninitialized memory in the escape
analysis. If that's the reason, it will go away when we convert the
compiler to Go. (And if not, we'll debug it the next time.)

This code overused macros and could not be
converted automatically. Instead a new sigctxt
type had to be defined for each os/arch combination,
with a common (implicit) interface used by the
arch-specific signal handler code.
[This CL is part of the removal of C code from package runtime.
