// Goroutine preemption
|
|
//
|
|
// A goroutine can be preempted at any safe-point. Currently, there
|
|
// are a few categories of safe-points:
|
|
//
|
|
// 1. A blocked safe-point occurs for the duration that a goroutine is
|
|
// descheduled, blocked on synchronization, or in a system call.
|
|
//
|
|
// 2. Synchronous safe-points occur when a running goroutine checks
|
|
// for a preemption request.
|
|
//
|
|
// 3. Asynchronous safe-points occur at any instruction in user code
|
|
// where the goroutine can be safely paused and a conservative
|
|
// stack and register scan can find stack roots. The runtime can
|
|
// stop a goroutine at an async safe-point using a signal.
|
|
//
|
|
// At both blocked and synchronous safe-points, a goroutine's CPU
|
|
// state is minimal and the garbage collector has complete information
|
|
// about its entire stack. This makes it possible to deschedule a
|
|
// goroutine with minimal space, and to precisely scan a goroutine's
|
|
// stack.
|
|
//
|
|
// Synchronous safe-points are implemented by overloading the stack
|
|
// bound check in function prologues. To preempt a goroutine at the
|
|
// next synchronous safe-point, the runtime poisons the goroutine's
|
|
// stack bound to a value that will cause the next stack bound check
|
|
// to fail and enter the stack growth implementation, which will
|
|
// detect that it was actually a preemption and redirect to preemption
|
|
// handling.
|
|
//
|
|
// Preemption at asynchronous safe-points is implemented by suspending
|
|
// the thread using an OS mechanism (e.g., signals) and inspecting its
|
|
// state to determine if the goroutine was at an asynchronous
|
|
// safe-point. Since the thread suspension itself is generally
|
|
// asynchronous, it also checks if the running goroutine wants to be
|
|
// preempted, since this could have changed. If all conditions are
|
|
// satisfied, it adjusts the signal context to make it look like the
|
|
// signaled thread just called asyncPreempt and resumes the thread.
|
|
// asyncPreempt spills all registers and enters the scheduler.
|
|
//
|
|
// (An alternative would be to preempt in the signal handler itself.
|
|
// This would let the OS save and restore the register state and the
|
|
// runtime would only need to know how to extract potentially
|
|
// pointer-containing registers from the signal context. However, this
|
|
// would consume an M for every preempted G, and the scheduler itself
|
|
// is not designed to run from a signal handler, as it tends to
|
|
// allocate memory and start threads in the preemption path.)

|
|
// It is safe for multiple callers to attempt to suspend the same
|
|
// goroutine at the same time. The goroutine may execute between
|
|
// subsequent successful suspend operations. The current
|
|
// implementation grants exclusive access to the goroutine, and hence
|
|
// multiple callers will serialize. However, the intent is to grant
|
|
// shared read access, so please don't depend on exclusive access.
|
|
//
|
|
// This must be called from the system stack and the user goroutine on

// the current M (if any) must be in a preemptible state. This
