      runtime: unwind stack barriers when writing above the current frame · 306f8f11
      Austin Clements authored
      Stack barriers assume that writes through pointers to frames above the
      current frame will get write barriers, and hence these frames do not
      need to be re-scanned to pick up these changes. For normal writes,
      this is true. However, there are places in the runtime that use
      typedmemmove to potentially write through pointers to higher frames
      (such as mapassign1). Currently, typedmemmove does not execute write
      barriers if the destination is on the stack. If there's a stack
      barrier between the current frame and the frame being modified with
      typedmemmove, and the stack barrier is not otherwise hit, it's
      possible that the garbage collector will never see the updated pointer
      and incorrectly reclaim the object.
      
      Fix this by making heapBitsBulkBarrier (which lies behind typedmemmove
      and its variants) detect when the destination is in the stack and
      unwind stack barriers up to the point, forcing mark termination to
      later rescan the effected frame and collect these pointers.
      
      Fixes #11084. Might be related to #10240, #10541, #10941, #11023,
       #11027 and possibly others.

      runtime: enable write barriers during concurrent scan · 1303957d
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently, write barriers are only enabled after completion of the
      concurrent scan phase, as we enter the concurrent mark phase. However,
      stack barriers are installed during the scan phase and assume that
      write barriers will track changes to frames above the stack
      barriers. Since write barriers aren't enabled until after stack
      barriers are installed, we may miss modifications to the stack that
      happen after installing the stack barriers and before enabling write
      barriers.
      
      Fix this by enabling write barriers during the scan phase.
      
      This commit intentionally makes the minimal change to do this (there's
      only one line of code change; the rest are comment changes). At the
      very least, we should consider eliminating the ragged barrier that's
      intended to synchronize the enabling of write barriers, but now just
      wastes time. I've included a large comment about extensions and
      alternative designs.

      runtime: fix checkmarks to rescan stacks · 6f6403ed
      Austin Clements authored
      Currently checkmarks mode fails to rescan stacks because it sees the
      leftover state bits indicating that the stacks haven't changed since
      the last scan. As a result, it won't detect lost marks caused by
      failing to scan stacks correctly during regular garbage collection.
      
      Fix this by marking all stacks dirty before performing the checkmark
      phase.
