<title>runtime: set iOS addr space to 40 bits with incremental pagealloc</title>

<id>c27a3592aec5f46ae18f7fd3d9ba18e69e2f1dcb</id>
<content type='text'>
In iOS &lt;14, the address space is strictly limited to 8 GiB, or 33 bits.
As a result, the page allocator also assumes all heap memory lives in
this region. This is especially necessary because the page allocator has
a PROT_NONE mapping proportional to the size of the usable address
space, so this keeps that mapping very small.

However starting with iOS 14, this restriction is relaxed, and mmap may
start returning addresses outside of the &lt;14 range. Today this means
that in iOS 14 and later, users experience an error in the page
allocator when a heap arena is mapped outside of the old range.

This change increases the ios/arm64 heapAddrBits to 40 while
simultaneously making ios/arm64 use the 64-bit pagealloc implementation
(with reservations and incremental mapping) to accommodate both iOS
versions &lt;14 and 14+.

Once iOS &lt;14 is deprecated, we can remove these exceptions and treat
ios/arm64 like any other arm64 platform.

This change also makes the BaseChunkIdx expression a little bit easier
to read, while we're here.

Fixes #46860.

Currently the AddrRange used for testing is defined separately from
addrRange in the runtime, making it difficult to test it as well as
addrRanges. Redefine AddrRange in terms of addrRange instead.

For #40191.

<title>runtime: validate candidate searchAddr in pageAlloc.find</title>

Currently pageAlloc.find attempts to find a better estimate for the
first free page in the heap, even if the space its looking for isn't
necessarily going to be the first free page in the heap (e.g. if npages
&gt;= 2). However, in doing so it has the potential to return a searchAddr
candidate that doesn't actually correspond to mapped memory, but this
candidate might still be adopted. As a result, pageAlloc.alloc's fast
path may look at unmapped summary memory and segfault. This case is rare
on most operating systems since the heap is kept fairly contiguous, so
the chance that the candidate searchAddr discovered is unmapped is
fairly low. Even so, this is totally possible and outside the user's
control when it happens (in fact, it's likely to happen consistently for
a given user on a given system).

Fix this problem by ensuring that our candidate always points to mapped
memory. We do this by looking at mheap's arenas structure first. If it
turns out our candidate doesn't correspond to mapped memory, then we
look at inUse to round up the searchAddr to the next mapped address.

While we're here, clean up some documentation related to searchAddr.

Fixes #40191.

This change formalizes an assumption made by the page allocator, which
is that (*pageAlloc).searchAddr should never refer to memory that is not
represented by (*pageAlloc).inUse. The portion of address space covered
by (*pageAlloc).inUse reflects the parts of the summary arrays which are
guaranteed to mapped, and so looking at any summary which is not
reflected there may cause a segfault.

In fact, this can happen today. This change thus also removes a
micro-optimization which is the only case which may cause
(*pageAlloc).searchAddr to point outside of any region covered by
(*pageAlloc).inUse, and adds a test verifying that the current segfault
can no longer occur.

This change disables pageAlloc tests on OpenBSD in short mode because
pageAlloc holds relatively large virtual memory reservations and we make
two during the pageAlloc tests. The runtime may also be carrying one
such reservation making the virtual memory requirement for testing the
Go runtime three times as much as just running a Go binary.

This causes problems for folks who just want to build and test Go
(all.bash) on OpenBSD but either don't have machines with at least 4ish
GiB of RAM (per-process virtual memory limits are capped at some
constant factor times the amount of physical memory) or their
per-process virtual memory limits are low for other reasons.

Fixes #36210.

Prior to this change, if the heap was very discontiguous (such as in
TestArenaCollision) it's possible we could map a large amount of memory
as R/W and commit it. We would use only the start and end to track what
should be mapped, and we would extend that mapping as needed to
accomodate a potentially fragmented address space.

After this change, we only map exactly the part of the summary arrays
that we need by using the inUse ranges from the previous change. This
reduces the GCSys footprint of TestArenaCollision from 300 MiB to 18
MiB.

Because summaries are no longer mapped contiguously, this means the
scavenger can no longer iterate directly. This change also updates the
scavenger to borrow ranges out of inUse and iterate over only the
parts of the heap which are actually currently in use. This is both an
optimization and necessary for correctness.

Fixes #35514.

<title>runtime: track ranges of address space which are owned by the heap</title>

<id>9d78e75a0a55fd5ff3d68b4cba2f0395c4b5dc88</id>
<content type='text'>
This change adds a new inUse field to the allocator which tracks ranges
of addresses that are owned by the heap. It is updated on each heap
growth.

These ranges are tracked in an array which is kept sorted. In practice
this array shouldn't exceed its initial allocation except in rare cases
and thus should be small (ideally exactly 1 element in size).

In a hypothetical worst-case scenario wherein we have a 1 TiB heap and 4
MiB arenas (note that the address ranges will never be at a smaller
granularity than an arena, since arenas are always allocated
contiguously), inUse would use at most 4 MiB of memory if the heap
mappings were completely discontiguous (highly unlikely) with an
additional 2 MiB leaked from previous allocations. Furthermore, the
copies that are done to keep the inUse array sorted will copy at most 4
MiB of memory in such a scenario, which, assuming a conservative copying
rate of 5 GiB/s, amounts to about 800µs.

However, note that in practice:
1) Most 64-bit platforms have 64 MiB arenas.
2) The copies should incur little-to-no page faults, meaning a copy rate
   closer to 25-50 GiB/s is expected.
3) Go heaps are almost always mostly contiguous.

Updates #35514.

Currently the page allocator bitmap is implemented as a single giant
memory mapping which is reserved at init time and committed as needed.
This causes problems on systems that don't handle large uncommitted
mappings well, or institute low virtual address space defaults as a
memory limiting mechanism.

This change modifies the implementation of the page allocator bitmap
away from a directly-mapped set of bytes to a sparse array in same vein
as mheap.arenas. This will hurt performance a little but the biggest
gains are from the lockless allocation possible with the page allocator,
so the impact of this extra layer of indirection should be minimal.

In fact, this is exactly what we see:
    https://perf.golang.org/search?q=upload:20191125.5

This reduces the amount of mapped (PROT_NONE) memory needed on systems
with 48-bit address spaces to ~600 MiB down from almost 9 GiB. The bulk
of this remaining memory is used by the summaries.

Go processes with 32-bit address spaces now always commit to 128 KiB of
memory for the bitmap. Previously it would only commit the pages in the
bitmap which represented the range of addresses (lowest address to
highest address, even if there are unused regions in that range) used by
the heap.

Updates #35568.
Updates #35451.

<title>runtime: make the test addresses for pageAlloc smaller on 32-bit</title>

This change makes the test addresses start at 1 GiB instead of 2 GiB to
support mips and mipsle, which only have 31-bit address spaces.

It also changes some tests to use smaller offsets for the chunk index to
avoid jumping too far ahead in the address space to support 31-bit
address spaces. The tests don't require such large jumps for what
they're testing anyway.

Updates #35112.
Fixes #35440.
