Modify the Unix signal handler to redirect execution to a Go sigpanic
function instead of printing an error and re-raising the signal.
The C signal handler modifies the ucontext to make the faulting
instruction appear to have called tinygo_sigpanic, which then calls
runtimePanic with the appropriate message.
Supported on all architectures TinyGo targets on Linux and Darwin:
x86_64, i386, aarch64, ARM, and MIPS. Also registers SIGFPE, which
was previously not handled at all.
Print a message for SIGBUS, SIGSEGV, and SIGILL when they happen.
These signals are always fatal, but it's very useful to know which of
them happened.
Also, it prints the location in the binary which can then be parsed by
`tinygo run` (see https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/4383).
While this does add some extra binary size, it's for Linux and MacOS
(systems that typically have plenty of RAM/storage) and could be very
useful when debugging some low-level crash such as a runtime bug.
This adds linux/mipsle (little endian Mips) support to TinyGo.
It also adds experimental linux/mips (big-endian) support. It doesn't
quite work yet, some parts of the standard library (like the reflect
package) currently seem to assume a little-endian system.
This is not very useful in itself, but makes it possible to detect this
address in the output. See the next commit.
This adds around 50 bytes to each binary (except for AVR and wasm). This
is unfortunate, but I think this feature is quite useful still.
A future enhancement might be to create a build tag for extended panic
information that's not set by default.
You can see that it works with the following command:
tinygo run -target=simavr ./testdata/recover.go
This also gets the following tests to pass again:
go test -run=Build -target=simavr -v
Adding support for AVR was a bit more compliated because it's also
necessary to save and restore the Y register.
The only architecture that actually needs special support for scanning
the stack is WebAssembly. All others allow raw access to the stack with
a small bit of assembly. Therefore, don't manually keep track of all
these objects on the stack manually and instead just use conservative
stack scanning.
This results in a massive code size decrease in the affected targets
(only tested linux/amd64 for code size) - sometimes around 33%. It also
allows for future improvements such as using proper stackful goroutines.
Some instructions emitted by LLVM (like movaps) expect 16-byte
alignment, while the allocator assumed that 8-byte alignment is good
enough.
TODO: this issue came to light with LLVM optimizing a complex128 store
to the movaps instruction, which must be aligned. It looks like this
means that the <2 x double> IR type is actually 16-byte aligned instead
of 8-byte like a double. If this is the case, the alignment of complex
numbers needs to be updated in the whole compiler.
This commit does two things:
* It adds support for the GOOS and GOARCH environment variables. They
fall back to runtime.GO* only when not available.
* It adds support for 3 new architectures: 386, arm, and arm64. For
now, this is Linux-only.
Make sure every to-be-implemented GC can use the same interface. As a
result, a 1MB chunk of RAM is allocated on Unix systems on init instead
of allocating on demand.
* Use 64-bit integers on 64-bit platforms, just like gc and gccgo:
https://golang.org/doc/go1.1#int
* Do not use a separate length type. Instead, use uintptr everywhere a
length is expected.
