Use it to ensure that dowidth is not called
from the backend on a type whose size
has not yet been calculated.
This is an alternative to CL 42016.

Node.Used was written to from the backend
concurrently with reads of Node.Class
for the same ONAME Nodes.
I do not know why it was not failing consistently
under the race detector, but it is a race.
This is likely also a problem with Node.HasVal and Node.HasOpt.
They will be handled in a separate CL.
Fix Used by moving it to gc.Name and making it a separate bool.
There was one non-Name use of Used, marking OLABELs as used.
That is no longer needed, now that goto and label checking
happens early in the front end.
Leave the getters and setters in place,
to ease changing the representation in the future
(or changing to an interface!).

There's been one failure on the race builder so far,
before we started sorting functions by length.
The race detector can only detect actual races,
and ordering functions by length might reduce the odds
of catching some kinds of races. Give it more to chew on.

When using a concurrent backend,
the overall compilation time is bounded
in part by the slowest function to compile.
The number of top-level statements in a function
is an easily calculated and fairly reliable
proxy for compilation time.

A more interesting way of viewing the data is by
looking at the ratio of the time taken to compile
the slowest-to-compile function to the overall
time spent compiling functions.
If this ratio is small (near 0), then increased concurrency might help.
If this ratio is big (near 1), then we're bounded by that single function.
I instrumented the compiler to emit this ratio per-package,
ran 'go build -a -gcflags=-c=C -p=P std cmd' three times,
for varying values of C and P,
and collected the ratios encountered into an ASCII histogram.
Here's c=1 p=1, which is a non-concurrent backend, single process at a time:
90%|
80%|
70%|
60%|
50%|
40%|
30%|
20%|**
10%|***
0%|*********
----+----------
|0123456789
The x-axis is floor(10*ratio), so the first column indicates the percent of
ratios that fell in the 0% to 9.9999% range.
We can see in this histogram that more concurrency will help;
in most cases, the ratio is small.
Here's c=8 p=1, before this CL:
90%|
80%|
70%|

40%|
30%| *

10%|* * *

----+----------
|0123456789
In 30-40% of cases, we're mostly bound by the compilation time
of a single function.
Here's c=8 p=1, after this CL:
90%|
80%|
70%|
60%|
50%| *
40%| *
30%| *
20%| *
10%| *

----+----------
|0123456789
The sorting pays off; we are bound by the
compilation time of a single function in over half of packages.
The single * in the histogram indicates 0-10%.
The actual values for this chart are:
0: 5%, 1: 1%, 2: 1%, 3: 4%, 4: 5%, 5: 7%, 6: 7%, 7: 7%, 8: 9%, 9: 55%
This indicates that efforts to increase or enable more concurrency,
e.g. by optimizing mutexes or increasing the value of c,
will probably not yield fruit.
That matches what compilecmp tells us.
Further optimization efforts should thus focus instead on one of:
(1) making more functions compile concurrently
(2) improving the compilation time of the slowest functions
(3) speeding up the remaining serial parts of the compiler
(4) automatically splitting up some large autogenerated functions
into small ones, as discussed in #19751
I hope to spend more time on (1) before the freeze.
Adding process parallelism doesn't change the story much.
For example, here's c=8 p=8, after this CL:
90%|

Since we don't need to worry much about p,
these histograms can help us select a good
general value of c to use as a default,
assuming we're not bounded by GOMAXPROCS.

Given the increased user-CPU costs as

the sweet spot, at least for now.
Pleasingly, this matches (and explains)
the results of the standard benchmarking
that I have done.

This CL adds initial support for concurrent backend compilation.
BACKGROUND
The compiler currently consists (very roughly) of the following phases:
1. Initialization.
2. Lexing and parsing into the cmd/compile/internal/syntax AST.
3. Translation into the cmd/compile/internal/gc AST.
4. Some gc AST passes: typechecking, escape analysis, inlining,
closure handling, expression evaluation ordering (order.go),
and some lowering and optimization (walk.go).
5. Translation into the cmd/compile/internal/ssa SSA form.
6. Optimization and lowering of SSA form.
7. Translation from SSA form to assembler instructions.
8. Translation from assembler instructions to machine code.
9. Writing lots of output: machine code, DWARF symbols,
type and reflection info, export data.
Phase 2 was already concurrent as of Go 1.8.
Phase 3 is planned for eventual removal;
we hope to go straight from syntax AST to SSA.
Phases 5–8 are per-function; this CL adds support for
processing multiple functions concurrently.
The slowest phases in the compiler are 5 and 6,
so this offers the opportunity for some good speed-ups.
Unfortunately, it's not quite that straightforward.
In the current compiler, the latter parts of phase 4
(order, walk) are done function-at-a-time as needed.
Making order and walk concurrency-safe proved hard,
and they're not particularly slow, so there wasn't much reward.
To enable phases 5–8 to be done concurrently,
when concurrent backend compilation is requested,
we complete phase 4 for all functions
before starting later phases for any functions.
Also, in reality, we automatically generate new
functions in phase 9, such as method wrappers
and equality and has routines.
Those new functions then go through phases 4–8.
This CL disables concurrent backend compilation
after the first, big, user-provided batch of
functions has been compiled.
This is done to keep things simple,
and because the autogenerated functions
tend to be small, few, simple, and fast to compile.
USAGE
Concurrent backend compilation still defaults to off.
To set the number of functions that may be backend-compiled
concurrently, use the compiler flag -c.
In future work, cmd/go will automatically set -c.
Furthermore, this CL has been intentionally written
so that the c=1 path has no backend concurrency whatsoever,
not even spawning any goroutines.
This helps ensure that, should problems arise
late in the development cycle,
we can simply have cmd/go set c=1 always,
and revert to the original compiler behavior.
MUTEXES
Most of the work required to make concurrent backend
compilation safe has occurred over the past month.
This CL adds a handful of mutexes to get the rest of the way there;
they are the mutexes that I didn't see a clean way to avoid.
Some of them may still be eliminable in future work.
In no particular order:
* gc.funcsymsmu. The global funcsyms slice is populated
lazily when we need function symbols for closures.
This occurs during gc AST to SSA translation.
The function funcsym also does a package lookup,
which is a source of races on types.Pkg.Syms;
funcsymsmu also covers that package lookup.
This mutex is low priority: it adds a single global,
it is in an infrequently used code path, and it is low contention.
Since funcsyms may now be added in any order,
we must sort them to preserve reproducible builds.
* gc.largeStackFramesMu. We don't discover until after SSA compilation
that a function's stack frame is gigantic.
Recording that error happens basically never,
but it does happen concurrently.
Fix with a low priority mutex and sorting.
* obj.Link.hashmu. ctxt.hash stores the mapping from
types.Syms (compiler symbols) to obj.LSyms (linker symbols).
It is accessed fairly heavily through all the phases.
This is the only heavily contended mutex.
* gc.signatlistmu. The global signatlist map is
populated with types through several of the concurrent phases,
including notably via ngotype during DWARF generation.
It is low priority for removal.
* gc.typepkgmu. Looking up symbols in the types package
happens a fair amount during backend compilation
and DWARF generation, particularly via ngotype.
This mutex helps us to avoid a broader mutex on types.Pkg.Syms.
It has low-to-moderate contention.
* types.internedStringsmu. gc AST to SSA conversion and
some SSA work introduce new autotmps.
Those autotmps have their names interned to reduce allocations.
That interning requires protecting types.internedStrings.
The autotmp names are heavily re-used, and the mutex
overhead and contention here are low, so it is probably
a worthwhile performance optimization to keep this mutex.
TESTING
I have been testing this code locally by running
'go install -race cmd/compile'
and then doing
'go build -a -gcflags=-c=128 std cmd'
for all architectures and a variety of compiler flags.
This obviously needs to be made part of the builders,
but it is too expensive to make part of all.bash.
I have filed #19962 for this.
REPRODUCIBLE BUILDS
This version of the compiler generates reproducible builds.
Testing reproducible builds also needs automation, however,
and is also too expensive for all.bash.
This is #19961.
Also of note is that some of the compiler flags used by 'toolstash -cmp'
are currently incompatible with concurrent backend compilation.
They still work fine with c=1.
Time will tell whether this is a problem.
NEXT STEPS
* Continue to find and fix races and bugs,
using a combination of code inspection, fuzzing,
and hopefully some community experimentation.
I do not know of any outstanding races,
but there probably are some.
* Improve testing.
* Improve performance, for many values of c.
* Integrate with cmd/go and fine tune.
* Support concurrent compilation with the -race flag.
It is a sad irony that it does not yet work.
* Minor code cleanup that has been deferred during
the last month due to uncertainty about the
ultimate shape of this CL.

Going beyond c=4 on my machine tends to increase CPU time and allocs
without impacting real time.
The CPU time numbers matter, because when there are many concurrent
compilation processes, that will impact the overall throughput.
The numbers above are in many ways the best case scenario;
we can take full advantage of all cores.
Fortunately, the most common compilation scenario is incremental
re-compilation of a single package during a build/test cycle.

Instead of a separate check control flow pass (checkcfg.go)
operating on nodes, perform this check at parse time on the
new syntax tree. Permits this check to be done concurrently,
and doesn't depend on the specifics of the symbol's dclstack
implementation anymore. The remaining dclstack uses will be
removed in a follow-up change.
- added CheckBranches Mode flag (so we can turn off the check
if we only care about syntactic correctness, e.g. for tests)
- adjusted test/goto.go error messages: the new branches
checker only reports if a goto jumps into a block, but not
which block (we may want to improve this again, eventually)
- also, the new branches checker reports one variable that
is being jumped over by a goto, but it may not be the first
one declared (this is fine either way)
- the new branches checker reports additional errors for
fixedbugs/issue14006.go (not crucial to avoid those errors)
- the new branches checker now correctly reports only
variable declarations being jumped over, rather than
all declarations (issue 8042). Added respective tests.

The compiler handled gcargs and gclocals LSyms unusually.
It generated placeholder symbols (makefuncdatasym),
filled them in, and then renamed them for content-addressability.
This is an important binary size optimization;
the same locals information occurs over and over.
This CL continues to treat these LSyms unusually,
but in a slightly more explicit way,
and importantly for concurrent compilation,
in a way that does not require concurrent
modification of Ctxt.Hash.
Instead of creating gcargs and gclocals in the usual way,
by creating a types.Sym and then an obj.LSym,
we add them directly to obj.FuncInfo,
initialize them in obj.InitTextSym,
and deduplicate and add them to ctxt.Data at the end.
Then the backend's job is simply to fill them in
and rename them appropriately.

Prior to this CL, the SSA backend reported violations
of the //go:nowritebarrier annotation immediately.
This necessitated emitting errors during SSA compilation,
which is not compatible with a concurrent backend.
Instead, check for such violations later.
We already save the data required to do a late check
for violations of the //go:nowritebarrierrec annotation.
Use the same data, and check //go:nowritebarrier at the same time.
One downside to doing this is that now only a single
violation will be reported per function.
Given that this is for the runtime only,
and violations are rare, this seems an acceptable cost.
While we are here, remove several 'nerrors != 0' checks
that are rendered pointless.

We don't support stack frames over 2GB.
Rather than detect this during backend compilation,
check for it at the end of compilation.
This is arguably a more accurate check anyway,
since it takes into account the full frame,
including local stack, arguments, and arch-specific
rounding, although it's unlikely anyone would ever notice.
Also, rather than reporting the error right away,
take note of it and report it later, at the top level.
This is not relevant now, but it will help with making
the backend concurrent, as the append to the list of
oversized functions can be cheaply protected by a plain mutex.

This makes ssa.Func, ssa.Cache, and ssa.Config fulfill
the roles laid out for them in CL 38160.
The only non-trivial change in this CL is how cached
values and blocks get IDs. Prior to this CL, their IDs were
assigned as part of resetting the cache, and only modified
IDs were reset. This required knowing how many values and
blocks were modified, which required a tight coupling between
ssa.Func and ssa.Config. To eliminate that coupling,
we now zero values and blocks during reset,
and assign their IDs when they are used.
Since unused values and blocks have ID == 0,
we can efficiently find the last used value/block,
to avoid zeroing everything.
Bulk zeroing is efficient, but not efficient enough
to obviate the need to avoid zeroing everything every time.
As a happy side-effect, ssa.Func.Free is no longer necessary.
DebugHashMatch and friends now belong in func.go.
They have been left in place for clarity and review.
I will move them in a subsequent CL.
