// Garbage collector: write barriers.
//
// For the concurrent garbage collector, the Go compiler implements
// updates to pointer-valued fields that may be in heap objects by
// emitting calls to write barriers. The main write barrier for
// individual pointer writes is gcWriteBarrier and is implemented in
// assembly. This file contains write barrier entry points for bulk
// operations. See also mwbbuf.go.

// Go uses a hybrid barrier that combines a Yuasa-style deletion
// barrier—which shades the object whose reference is being
// overwritten—with Dijkstra insertion barrier—which shades the object
// whose reference is being written. The insertion part of the barrier
// is necessary while the calling goroutine's stack is grey. In
// pseudocode, the barrier is:
//
//     writePointer(slot, ptr):
//         shade(*slot)
//         if current stack is grey:
//             shade(ptr)
//         *slot = ptr
//
// slot is the destination in Go code.
// ptr is the value that goes into the slot in Go code.
//
// Shade indicates that it has seen a white pointer by adding the referent
// to wbuf as well as marking it.
//
// The two shades and the condition work together to prevent a mutator
// from hiding an object from the garbage collector:
//
// 1. shade(*slot) prevents a mutator from hiding an object by moving
// the sole pointer to it from the heap to its stack. If it attempts
// to unlink an object from the heap, this will shade it.
//
// 2. shade(ptr) prevents a mutator from hiding an object by moving
// the sole pointer to it from its stack into a black object in the
// heap. If it attempts to install the pointer into a black object,
// this will shade it.
//
// 3. Once a goroutine's stack is black, the shade(ptr) becomes
// unnecessary. shade(ptr) prevents hiding an object by moving it from
// the stack to the heap, but this requires first having a pointer
// hidden on the stack. Immediately after a stack is scanned, it only
// points to shaded objects, so it's not hiding anything, and the
// shade(*slot) prevents it from hiding any other pointers on its
// stack.
//
// For a detailed description of this barrier and proof of
// correctness, see https://github.com/golang/proposal/blob/master/design/17503-eliminate-rescan.md
//
//
//
// Dealing with memory ordering:
//
// Both the Yuasa and Dijkstra barriers can be made conditional on the
// color of the object containing the slot. We chose not to make these
// conditional because the cost of ensuring that the object holding
// the slot doesn't concurrently change color without the mutator
// noticing seems prohibitive.
//
// Consider the following example where the mutator writes into
// a slot and then loads the slot's mark bit while the GC thread
// writes to the slot's mark bit and then as part of scanning reads
// the slot.
//
// Initially both [slot] and [slotmark] are 0 (nil)
// Mutator thread          GC thread
// st [slot], ptr          st [slotmark], 1
//
// ld r1, [slotmark]       ld r2, [slot]
//
// Without an expensive memory barrier between the st and the ld, the final
// result on most HW (including 386/amd64) can be r1==r2==0. This is a classic
// example of what can happen when loads are allowed to be reordered with older
// stores (avoiding such reorderings lies at the heart of the classic
// Peterson/Dekker algorithms for mutual exclusion). Rather than require memory
// barriers, which will slow down both the mutator and the GC, we always grey
// the ptr object regardless of the slot's color.
//
// Another place where we intentionally omit memory barriers is when
// accessing mheap_.arena_used to check if a pointer points into the
// heap. On relaxed memory machines, it's possible for a mutator to
// extend the size of the heap by updating arena_used, allocate an
// object from this new region, and publish a pointer to that object,
// but for tracing running on another processor to observe the pointer
// but use the old value of arena_used. In this case, tracing will not
// mark the object, even though it's reachable. However, the mutator
// is guaranteed to execute a write barrier when it publishes the
// pointer, so it will take care of marking the object. A general
// consequence of this is that the garbage collector may cache the
// value of mheap_.arena_used. (See issue #9984.)
//
//
// Stack writes:
//
// The compiler omits write barriers for writes to the current frame,
// but if a stack pointer has been passed down the call stack, the
// compiler will generate a write barrier for writes through that
// pointer (because it doesn't know it's not a heap pointer).
//
//
// Global writes:
//
// The Go garbage collector requires write barriers when heap pointers
// are stored in globals. Many garbage collectors ignore writes to
// globals and instead pick up global -> heap pointers during
// termination. This increases pause time, so we instead rely on write
// barriers for writes to globals so that we don't have to rescan
// global during mark termination.
//
//
// Publication ordering:
//
// The write barrier is *pre-publication*, meaning that the write
// barrier happens prior to the *slot = ptr write that may make ptr
// reachable by some goroutine that currently cannot reach it.
//
//
// Signal handler pointer writes:
//
// In general, the signal handler cannot safely invoke the write
// barrier because it may run without a P or even during the write
// barrier.
//
// There is exactly one exception: profbuf.go omits a barrier during
// signal handler profile logging. That's safe only because of the
// deletion barrier. See profbuf.go for a detailed argument. If we
// remove the deletion barrier, we'll have to work out a new way to
// handle the profile logging.
