The old code was using the PC of the instruction after the CALL.
Variables live during the call but not live when it returns would
not be seen as live during the stack copy, which might lead to
corruption. The correct PC to use is the one just before the
return address. After this CL the lookup matches what mgc0.c does.
The only time this matters is if you have back to back CALL instructions:
CALL f1 // x live here
CALL f2 // x no longer live
If a stack copy occurs during the execution of f1, the old code will
use the liveness bitmap intended for the execution of f2 and will not
treat x as live.
The only way this situation can arise and cause a problem in a stack copy
is if x lives on the stack has had its address taken but the compiler knows
enough about the context to know that x is no longer needed once f1
returns. The compiler has never known that much, so using the f2 context
cannot currently cause incorrect execution. For the same reason, it is not
possible to write a test for this today.
CL 83090046 will make the compiler precise enough in some cases
that this distinction will start mattering. The existing stack growth tests
in package runtime will fail if that CL is submitted without this one.
While we're here, print the frame PC in debug mode and update the
bitmap interpretation strings.

GODEBUG=allocfreetrace=1:
The allocfreetrace=1 mode prints a stack trace for each block
allocated and freed, and also a stack trace for each garbage collection.
It was implemented by reusing the heap profiling support: if allocfreetrace=1
then the heap profile was effectively running at 1 sample per 1 byte allocated
(always sample). The stack being shown at allocation was the stack gathered
for profiling, meaning it was derived only from the program counters and
did not include information about function arguments or frame pointers.
The stack being shown at free was the allocation stack, not the free stack.
If you are generating this log, you can find the allocation stack yourself, but
it can be useful to see exactly the sequence that led to freeing the block:
was it the garbage collector or an explicit free? Now that the garbage collector
runs on an m0 stack, the stack trace for the garbage collector was never interesting.
Fix all these problems:
1. Decouple allocfreetrace=1 from heap profiling.
2. Print the standard goroutine stack traces instead of a custom format.
3. Print the stack trace at time of allocation for an allocation,
and print the stack trace at time of free (not the allocation trace again)
for a free.
4. Print all goroutine stacks at garbage collection. Having all the stacks
means that you can see the exact point at which each goroutine was
preempted, which is often useful for identifying liveness-related errors.

This is the same check we use during stack copying.
The check cannot be applied to C stack frames, even
though we do emit pointer bitmaps for the arguments,
because (1) the pointer bitmaps assume all arguments
are always live, not true of outputs during the prologue,
and (2) the pointer bitmaps encode interface values as
pointer pairs, not true of interfaces holding integers.
For the rest of the frames, however, we should hold ourselves
to the rule that a pointer marked live really is initialized.
The interface scanning already implicitly checks this
because it interprets the type word as a valid type pointer.
This may slow things down a little because of the extra loads.
Or it may speed things up because we don't bother enqueuing
nil pointers anymore. Enough of the rest of the system is slow
right now that we can't measure it meaningfully.
Enable for now, even if it is slow, to shake out bugs in the
liveness bitmaps, and then decide whether to turn it off
for the Go 1.3 release (issue 7650 reminds us to do this).
The new m->traceback field lets us force printing of fp=
values on all goroutine stack traces when we detect a
bad pointer. This makes it easier to understand exactly
where in the frame the bad pointer is, so that we can trace
it back to a specific variable and determine what is wrong.

Change two-bit stack map entries to encode:
0 = dead
1 = scalar
2 = pointer
3 = multiword
If multiword, the two-bit entry for the following word encodes:
0 = string
1 = slice
2 = iface
3 = eface
That way, during stack scanning we can check if a string
is zero length or a slice has zero capacity. We can avoid
following the contained pointer in those cases. It is safe
to do so because it can never be dereferenced, and it is
desirable to do so because it may cause false retention
of the following block in memory.

runtime.h: define uintreg correctly.
stack.c: address warning caused by the type of uintreg being 32 bits on amd64p32.
Commentary (mainly for my own use)
nacl/amd64p32 defines a machine with 64bit registers, but address space is limited to a 4gb window (the window is placed randomly inside the full 48 bit virtual address space of a process). To cope with this 6c defines _64BIT and _64BITREG.
_64BITREG is always defined by 6c, so both GOARCH=amd64 and GOARCH=amd64p32 use 64bit wide registers.
However _64BIT itself is only defined when 6c is compiling for amd64 targets. The definition is elided for amd64p32 environments causing int, uint and other arch specific types to revert to their 32bit definitions.

2. stktop->free is not properly maintained during copystack/shrinkstack
3. stktop->free logic is broken:
we can have stktop->free==FixedStack,

On stack overflow, if all frames on the stack are
copyable, we copy the frames to a new stack twice
as large as the old one. During GC, if a G is using
less than 1/4 of its stack, copy the stack to a stack
half its size.
TODO
- Do something about C frames. When a C frame is in the
stack segment, it isn't copyable. We allocate a new segment
in this case.
- For idempotent C code, we can abort it, copy the stack,
then retry. I'm working on a separate CL for this.
- For other C code, we can raise the stackguard
to the lowest Go frame so the next call that Go frame
makes triggers a copy, which will then succeed.
- Pick a starting stack size?
The plan is that eventually we reach a point where the
stack contains only copyable frames.

Package runtime's C functions written to be called from Go
started out written in C using carefully constructed argument
lists and the FLUSH macro to write a result back to memory.
For some functions, the appropriate parameter list ended up
being architecture-dependent due to differences in alignment,
so we added 'goc2c', which takes a .goc file containing Go func
declarations but C bodies, rewrites the Go func declaration to
equivalent C declarations for the target architecture, adds the
needed FLUSH statements, and writes out an equivalent C file.
That C file is compiled as part of package runtime.
Native Client's x86-64 support introduces the most complex
alignment rules yet, breaking many functions that could until
now be portably written in C. Using goc2c for those avoids the
breakage.
Separately, Keith's work on emitting stack information from
the C compiler would require the hand-written functions
to add #pragmas specifying how many arguments are result
parameters. Using goc2c for those avoids maintaining #pragmas.
For both reasons, use goc2c for as many Go-called C functions
as possible.

Bug #1:
Issue 5406 identified an interesting case:
defer iface.M()
may end up calling a wrapper that copies an indirect receiver
from the iface value and then calls the real M method. That's
two calls down, not just one, and so recover() == nil always
in the real M method, even during a panic.
[For the purposes of this entire discussion, a wrapper's
implementation is a function containing an ordinary call, not
the optimized tail call form that is somtimes possible. The
tail call does not create a second frame, so it is already
handled correctly.]
Fix this bug by introducing g->panicwrap, which counts the
number of bytes on current stack segment that are due to
wrapper calls that should not count against the recover
check. All wrapper functions must now adjust g->panicwrap up
on entry and back down on exit. This adds slightly to their
expense; on the x86 it is a single instruction at entry and
exit; on the ARM it is three. However, the alternative is to
make a call to recover depend on being able to walk the stack,
which I very much want to avoid. We have enough problems
walking the stack for garbage collection and profiling.
Also, if performance is critical in a specific case, it is already
faster to use a pointer receiver and avoid this kind of wrapper
entirely.
Bug #2:
The old code, which did not consider the possibility of two
calls, already contained a check to see if the call had split
its stack and so the panic-created segment was one behind the
current segment. In the wrapper case, both of the two calls
might split their stacks, so the panic-created segment can be
two behind the current segment.
Fix this by propagating the Stktop.panic flag forward during
stack splits instead of looking backward during recover.

If the stack frame size is larger than the known-unmapped region at the
bottom of the address space, then the stack split prologue cannot use the usual
condition:
SP - size >= stackguard
because SP - size may wrap around to a very large number.
Instead, if the stack frame is large, the prologue tests:
SP - stackguard >= size
(This ends up being a few instructions more expensive, so we don't do it always.)
Preemption requests register by setting stackguard to a very large value, so
that the first test (SP - size >= stackguard) cannot possibly succeed.
Unfortunately, that same very large value causes a wraparound in the
second test (SP - stackguard >= size), making it succeed incorrectly.
To avoid *that* wraparound, we have to amend the test:
stackguard != StackPreempt && SP - stackguard >= size
This test is only used for functions with large frames, which essentially
always split the stack, so the cost of the few instructions is noise.

Until now, the goroutine state has been scattered during the
execution of newstack and oldstack. It's all there, and those routines
know how to get back to a working goroutine, but other pieces of
the system, like stack traces, do not. If something does interrupt
the newstack or oldstack execution, the rest of the system can't
understand the goroutine. For example, if newstack decides there
is an overflow and calls throw, the stack tracer wouldn't dump the
goroutine correctly.
For newstack to save a useful state snapshot, it needs to be able
to rewind the PC in the function that triggered the split back to
the beginning of the function. (The PC is a few instructions in, just
after the call to morestack.) To make that possible, we change the
prologues to insert a jmp back to the beginning of the function
after the call to morestack. That is, the prologue used to be roughly:
TEXT myfunc
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
Now an extra instruction is inserted after the call:
TEXT myfunc
start:
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
jmp start
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
The jmp is not executed directly. It is decoded and simulated by
runtime.rewindmorestack to discover the beginning of the function,
and then the call to morestack returns directly to the start label
instead of to the jump instruction. So logically the jmp is still
executed, just not by the cpu.
The prologue thus repeats in the case of a function that needs a
stack split, but against the cost of the split itself, the extra few
instructions are noise. The repeated prologue has the nice effect of
making a stack split double-check that the new stack is big enough:
if morestack happens to return on a too-small stack, we'll now notice
before corruption happens.
The ability for newstack to rewind to the beginning of the function
should help preemption too. If newstack decides that it was called
for preemption instead of a stack split, it now has the goroutine state
correctly paused if rescheduling is needed, and when the goroutine
can run again, it can return to the start label on its original stack
and re-execute the split check.
Here is an example of a split stack overflow showing the full
trace, without any special cases in the stack printer.

It was used to request large stack segment for GC
when it was running not on g0.
Now GC is running on g0 with large stack,
and it is not needed anymore.

Add gostartcall and gostartcallfn.
The old gogocall = gostartcall + gogo.
The old gogocallfn = gostartcallfn + gogo.

The garbage collection routine addframeroots is duplicating
logic in the traceback routine that calls it, sometimes correctly,
sometimes incorrectly, sometimes incompletely.
Pass necessary information to addframeroots instead of
deriving it anew.
Should make addframeroots significantly more robust.
It's certainly smaller.
Also try to standardize on uintptr for saved pc, sp values.
Will make CL 10036044 trivial.

This is part of preemptive scheduler.
stackguard0 is checked in split stack checks and can be set to StackPreempt.
stackguard is not set to StackPreempt (holds the original value).

runtime: add context argument to gogocall
Too many other things use AX, and at least one
(stack zeroing) cannot be moved onto a different
register. Use the less special DX instead.
Preparation for step 2 of http://golang.org/s/go11func.
Nothing interesting here, just split out so that we can
see it's correct before moving on.

No code changes.
This is mainly in preparation to scheduler changes,
oldstack/newstack are not related to scheduling.
