      image/gif: write fewer, bigger blocks · 8b220d8e
      Jed Denlea authored 
      The indexed bitmap of a frame is encoded into a GIF by first LZW
compression, and then packaged by a simple block mechanism.  Each block
of up-to-256 bytes starts with one byte, which indicates the size of the
block (0x01-0xff). The sequence of blocks is terminated by a 0x00.

While the format supports it, there is no good reason why any particular
image should be anything but a sequence of 255-byte blocks with one last
block less than 255-bytes.

The old blockWriter implementation would not buffer between Write()s,
meaning if the lzw Writer needs to flush more than one chunk of data via
a Write, multiple short blocks might exist in the middle of a stream.

Separate but related, the old implementation also forces lzw.NewWriter
to allocate a bufio.Writer because the blockWriter is not an
io.ByteWriter itself.  But, even though it doesn't effectively buffer
data between Writes, it does make extra copies of sub-blocks during the
course of writing them to the GIF's writer.

Now, the blockWriter shall continue to use the encoder's [256]byte buf,
but use it to effectively buffer a series of WriteByte calls from the
lzw Writer.  Once a WriteByte fills the buffer, the staged block is
Write()n to the underlying GIF writer.  After the lzw Writer is Closed,
the blockWriter should also be closed, which will flush any remaining
block along with the block terminator.

BenchmarkEncode indicates slight improvements:

      cmd/compile: omit ICE diagnostics after normal error messages · f3d4ff7d
      Matthew Dempsky authored 
      After we detect errors, the AST is in a precarious state and more
likely to trip useless ICE failures. Instead let the user fix any
existing errors and see if the ICE persists.  This makes Fatalf more
consistent with how panics are handled by hidePanic.

While here, also fix detection for release versions: release version
strings begin with "go" ("go1.8", "go1.9.1", etc), not "release".

Fixes #22252.

      crypto/tls: replace signatureAndHash by SignatureScheme. · d1bbdbe7
      Peter Wu authored 
      Consolidate the signature and hash fields (SignatureAndHashAlgorithm in
TLS 1.2) into a single uint16 (SignatureScheme in TLS 1.3 draft 21).
This makes it easier to add RSASSA-PSS for TLS 1.2 in the future.

Fields were named like "signatureAlgorithm" rather than
"signatureScheme" since that name is also used throughout the 1.3 draft.

The only new public symbol is ECDSAWithSHA1, other than that this is an
internal change with no new functionality.

      runtime: schedule fractional workers on all Ps · e09dbaa1
      Austin Clements authored 
      Currently only a single P can run a fractional mark worker at a time.
This doesn't let us spread out the load, so it gets concentrated on
whatever unlucky P picks up the token to run a fractional worker. This
can significantly delay goroutines on that P.

This commit changes this scheduling rule so each P separately
schedules fractional workers. This can significantly reduce the load
on any individual P and allows workers to self-preempt earlier. It
does have the downside that it's possible for all Ps to be in
fractional workers simultaneously (an effect STW).

Updates #21698.

      runtime: preempt fractional worker after reaching utilization goal · 28e1a8e4
      Austin Clements authored 
      Currently fractional workers run until preempted by the scheduler,
which means they typically run for 20ms. During this time, all other
goroutines on that P are blocked, which can introduce significant
latency variance.

This modifies fractional workers to self-preempt shortly after
achieving the fractional utilization goal. In practice this means they
preempt much sooner, and the scale of their preemption is on the order
of how often the user goroutine block (so, if the application is
compute-bound, the fractional workers will also run for long times,
but if the application blocks frequently, the fractional workers will
also preempt quickly).

Fixes #21698.
Updates #18534.

      runtime: use only dedicated mark workers at reasonable GOMAXPROCS · 315c28b7
      Austin Clements authored 
      When GOMAXPROCS is not small, fractional workers don't add much to
throughput, but they do add to the latency of individual goroutines.
In this case, it makes sense to just use dedicated workers, even if we
can't exactly hit the 25% CPU goal with dedicated workers.

This implements this logic by computing the number of dedicated mark
workers that will us closest to the 25% target. We only fall back to
fractional workers if that would be more than 30% off of the target
(less than 17.5% or more than 32.5%, which in practice happens for
GOMAXPROCS <= 3 and GOMAXPROCS == 6).

Updates #21698.

      database/sql: prevent race in driver by locking dc in Next · 897080d5
      Daniel Theophanes authored 
      Database drivers should be called from a single goroutine to ease
driver's design. If a driver chooses to handle context
cancels internally it may do so.

The sql package violated this agreement when calling Next or
NextResultSet. It was possible for a concurrent rollback
triggered from a context cancel to call a Tx.Rollback (which
takes a driver connection lock) while a Rows.Next is in progress
(which does not tack the driver connection lock).

The current internal design of the sql package is each call takes
roughly two locks: a closemu lock which prevents an disposing of
internal resources (assigning nil or removing from lists)
and a driver connection lock that prevents calling driver code from
multiple goroutines.

Fixes #21117

      net: fix data race in TestClosingListener · 0e4de78d

Simply define a new Listener, since we don't need to overwrite the first
variable.

I was able to reproduce the data race report locally about 10% of the
time by reducing the sleep from a millisecond to a nanosecond. After the
fix, it's entirely gone after 1000 runs.

      cmd/compile: simplify slice/array range loops for some element sizes · 743117a8
      Martin Möhrmann authored 
      In range loops over slices and arrays besides a variable to track the
index an extra variable containing the address of the current element
is used. To compute a pointer to the next element the elements size is
added to the address.

On 386 and amd64 an element of size 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes can by copied
from an array using a MOV instruction with suitable addressing mode
that uses the start address of the array, the index of the element and
element size as scaling factor. Thereby, for arrays and slices with
suitable element size we can avoid keeping and incrementing an extra
variable to compute the next elements address.

Shrinks cmd/go by 4 kilobytes.

      runtime: use vDSO on linux/386 to improve time.Now performance · af40cbe8
      Frank Somers authored 
      This change adds support for accelerating time.Now by using
the __vdso_clock_gettime fast-path via the vDSO on linux/386
if it is available.

When the vDSO path to the clocks is available, it is typically
5x-10x faster than the syscall path (see benchmark extract
below).  Two such calls are made for each time.Now() call
on most platforms as of go 1.9.

- Add vdso_linux_386.go, containing the ELF32 definitions
  for use by vdso_linux.go, the maximum array size, and
  the symbols to be located in the vDSO.

- Modify runtime.walltime and runtime.nanotime to check for
  and use the vDSO fast-path if available, or fall back to
  the existing syscall path.

- Reduce the stack reservations for runtime.walltime and
  runtime.monotime from 32 to 16 bytes. It appears the syscall
  path actually only needed 8 bytes, but 16 is now needed to
  cover the syscall and vDSO paths.

- Remove clearing DX from the syscall paths as clock_gettime
  only takes 2 args (BX, CX in syscall calling convention),
  so there should be no need to clear DX.

The included BenchmarkTimeNow was run with -cpu=1 -count=20
on an "Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J1900 @ 1.99GHz", comparing
released go 1.9.1 vs this change. This shows a gain in
performance on linux/386 (6.89x), and that no regression
occurred on linux/amd64 due to this change.

Kernel: linux/i686, GOOS=linux GOARCH=386
   name      old time/op  new time/op  delta
   TimeNow   978ns ± 0%   142ns ± 0%  -85.48%  (p=0.000 n=16+20)

   name      old time/op  new time/op  delta
   TimeNow   125ns ± 0%   125ns ± 0%   ~       (all equal)

Gains are more dramatic in virtualized environments,
presumably due to the overhead of virtualizing the syscall.

      syscall: correct type for timeout argument to Select on linux/{arm64,mips64x} · bf237f53
      Tobias Klauser authored 
      syscall.Select uses SYS_PSELECT6 on arm64 and mipx64x, however this
syscall expects its 5th argument to be of type Timespec (with seconds
and nanoseconds) instead of type Timeval (with seconds and microseconds)
This leads to the timeout being too short by a factor of 1000.

This CL fixes this by adjusting the timeout argument accordingly,
similarly to how glibc does it for architectures where neither

      cmd/asm: refine Go assembly for ARM64 · 531e6c06
      Wei Xiao authored 
      Some ARM64-specific instructions (such as SIMD instructions) are not supported.
This patch adds support for the following:
1. Extended register, e.g.:
     ADD	Rm.<ext>[<<amount], Rn, Rd
     <ext> can have the following values:
       UXTB, UXTH, UXTW, UXTX, SXTB, SXTH, SXTW and SXTX
2. Arrangement for SIMD instructions, e.g.:
     VADDP	Vm.<T>, Vn.<T>, Vd.<T>
     <T> can have the following values:
       B8, B16, H4, H8, S2, S4 and D2
3. Width specifier and element index for SIMD instructions, e.g.:
     VMOV	Vn.<T>[index], Rd // MOV(to general register)
     <T> can have the following values:
       S and D
4. Register List, e.g.:
     VLD1	(Rn), [Vt1.<T>, Vt2.<T>, Vt3.<T>]
5. Register offset variant, e.g.:
     VLD1.P	(Rn)(Rm), [Vt1.<T>, Vt2.<T>] // Rm is the post-index register
6. Go assembly for ARM64 reference manual
     new added instructions are required to have according explanation items in
     the manual and items for existed instructions will be added incrementally

For more information about the refinement background, please refer to the
discussion (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-dev/rWgDxCrL4GU)

This patch only adds syntax and doesn't break any assembly that already exists.

      image/gif: try harder to use global color table · 31cd20a7
      Jed Denlea authored 
      The GIF format allows for an image to contain a global color table which
might be used for some or every frame in an animated GIF.  This palette
contains 24-bit opaque RGB values.  An individual frame may use the
global palette and enable transparency by picking one number to be
transparent, instead of the color value in the palette.

image/gif decodes a GIF, which contains an []*image.Paletted that holds
each frame.  When decoded, if a frame has a transparent color and uses
the global palette, a copy of the global []color.Color is made, and the
transparency color index is replaced with color.RGBA{}.

When encoding a GIF, each frame's palette is encoded to the form it
might exist in a GIF, up to 768 bytes "RGBRGBRGBRGB...". If a frame's
encoded palette is equal to the encoded global color table, the frame
will be encoded with the flag set to use the global color table,
otherwise the frame's palette will be included.

So, if the color in the global color table that matches the transparent
index of one frame wasn't black (and it frequently is not), reencoding a
GIF will likely result in a larger file because each frame's palette
will have to be encoded inline.

This commit takes a frame's transparent color index into account when
comparing an individual image.Paletted's encoded color table to the
global color table.

Fixes #22137

      cmd/compile: attempt to deflake debug_test.go · e45e4902
      David Chase authored 
      Excluded when -short because it still runs relatively long,
but deflaked.

Removed timeouts from normal path and ensured that they were
not needed and that reference files did not change.

Use "tbreak" instead of "break" with gdb to reduce chance
of multiple hits on main.main.  (Seems not enough, but a
move in the right direction).

By default, testing ignores repeated lines that occur when
nexting.  This appears to sometimes be timing-dependent and
is the observed source of flakiness in testing so far.
Note that these can also be signs of a bug in the generated
debugging output, but it is one of the less-confusing bugs
that can occur.

By default, testing with gdb uses compilation with
inlining disabled to prevent dependence on library code
(it's a bug that library code is seen while Nexting, but
the bug is current behavior).

Also by default exclude all source files outside /testdata
to prevent accidental dependence on library code.  Note that
this is currently only applicable to dlv because (for the
debugging information we produce) gdb does not indicate a
change in the source file for inlined code.

Added flags -i and -r to make gdb testing compile with
inlining and be sensitive to repeats in the next stream.
This is for developer-testing and so we can describe these
problems in bug reports.

Updates #22206.

      runtime: factor amd64 specifics from vdso_linux.go · c14dcfda
      Frank Somers authored 
      This is a preparation step for adding vDSO support on linux/386.

This change relocates the elf64 and amd64 specifics from
vdso_linux.go to a new vdso_linux_amd64.go.

This should enable vdso_linux.go to be used for vDSO
support on linux architectures other than amd64.

- Relocate the elf64X structure definitions appropriate to amd64,
  and change their names to elfX so that the code in vdso_linux.go
  is ELFnn-agnostic.

- Relocate the sym_keys and corresponding __vdso_* variables
  appropriate to amd64.

- Provide an amd64-specific constant for the maximum byte size of
  an array, and use this in vdso_linux.go to compute constants for
  sizing the elf structure arrays traversed in the loaded vDSO.

      cmd/link, runtime: put hasmain bit in moduledata · c58b98b2
      David Crawshaw authored 
      Currently we look to see if the main.main symbol address is in the
module data text range. This requires access to the main.main
symbol, which usually the runtime has, but does not when building
a plugin.

To avoid a dynamic relocation to main.main (which I haven't worked
out how to have the linker generate on darwin), stop using the
symbol. Instead record a boolean in the moduledata if the module
has the main function.
