Golang源码探索(三) GC的实现原理

Golang从1.5开始引入了三色GC,经过多次改进,当前的1.9版本的GC停顿时间已经可以做到极短.
停顿时间的减少意味着"最大响应时间"的缩短,这也让go更适合编写网络服务程序.
这篇文章将通过分析golang的源代码来讲解go中的三色GC的实现原理.

这个系列分析的golang源代码是Google官方的实现的1.9.2版本,不适用于其他版本和gccgo等其他实现,
运行环境是Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64bit.
首先会讲解基础概念,然后讲解分配器,再讲解收集器的实现.

基础概念

内存结构

go在程序启动时会分配一块虚拟内存地址是连续的内存,结构如下:

这一块内存分为了3个区域,在X64上大小分别是512M,16G和512G,它们的作用如下:

arena

arena区域就是我们通常说的heap,go从heap分配的内存都在这个区域中.

bitmap

bitmap区域用于表示arena区域中哪些地址保存了对象,并且对象中哪些地址包含了指针.
bitmap区域中一个byte(8 bit)对应了arena区域中的四个指针大小的内存,也就是2 bit对应一个指针大小的内存.
所以bitmap区域的大小是 512GB / 指针大小(8 byte) / 4 = 16GB.

bitmap区域中的一个byte对应arena区域的四个指针大小的内存的结构如下,
每一个指针大小的内存都会有两个bit分别表示是否应该继续扫描和是否包含指针:

bitmap中的byte和arena的对应关系从末尾开始,也就是随着内存分配会向两边扩展:

spans

spans区域用于表示arena区中的某一页(Page)属于哪个span,什么是span将在下面介绍.
spans区域中一个指针(8 byte)对应了arena区域中的一页(在go中一页=8KB).
所以spans的大小是 512GB / 页大小(8KB) * 指针大小(8 byte) = 512MB.

spans区域的一个指针对应arena区域的一页的结构如下,和bitmap不一样的是对应关系会从开头开始:

什么时候从Heap分配对象

很多讲解go的文章和书籍中都提到过,go会自动确定哪些对象应该放在栈上,哪些对象应该放在堆上.
简单的来说,当一个对象的内容可能在生成该对象的函数结束后被访问,那么这个对象就会分配在堆上.
在堆上分配对象的情况包括:

• 返回对象的指针
• 传递了对象的指针到其他函数
• 在闭包中使用了对象并且需要修改对象
• 使用new

在C语言中函数返回在栈上的对象的指针是非常危险的事情,但在go中却是安全的,因为这个对象会自动在堆上分配.
go决定是否使用堆分配对象的过程也叫"逃逸分析".

GC Bitmap

GC在标记时需要知道哪些地方包含了指针,例如上面提到的bitmap区域涵盖了arena区域中的指针信息.
除此之外,GC还需要知道栈空间上哪些地方包含了指针,
因为栈空间不属于arena区域,栈空间的指针信息将会在函数信息里面.
另外,GC在分配对象时也需要根据对象的类型设置bitmap区域,来源的指针信息将会在类型信息里面.

总结起来go中有以下的GC Bitmap:

• bitmap区域: 涵盖了arena区域,使用2 bit表示一个指针大小的内存
• 函数信息: 涵盖了函数的栈空间,使用1 bit表示一个指针大小的内存 (位于stackmap.bytedata)
• 类型信息: 在分配对象时会复制到bitmap区域,使用1 bit表示一个指针大小的内存 (位于_type.gcdata)

Span

span是用于分配对象的区块,下图是简单说明了Span的内部结构:

通常一个span包含了多个大小相同的元素,一个元素会保存一个对象,除非:

• span用于保存大对象,这种情况span只有一个元素
• span用于保存极小对象且不包含指针的对象(tiny object),这种情况span会用一个元素保存多个对象

span中有一个freeindex标记下一次分配对象时应该开始搜索的地址,分配后freeindex会增加,
在freeindex之前的元素都是已分配的,在freeindex之后的元素有可能已分配,也有可能未分配.

span每次GC以后都可能会回收掉一些元素,allocBits用于标记哪些元素是已分配的,哪些元素是未分配的.
使用freeindex + allocBits可以在分配时跳过已分配的元素,把对象设置在未分配的元素中,
但因为每次都去访问allocBits效率会比较慢,span中有一个整数型的allocCache用于缓存freeindex开始的bitmap,缓存的bit值与原值相反.

gcmarkBits用于在gc时标记哪些对象存活,每次gc以后gcmarkBits会变为allocBits.
需要注意的是span结构本身的内存是从系统分配的,上面提到的spans区域和bitmap区域都只是一个索引.

Span的类型

span根据大小可以分为67个类型,如下:

以类型(class)为1的span为例,
span中的元素大小是8 byte,span本身占1页也就是8K,一共可以保存1024个对象.

在分配对象时,会根据对象的大小决定使用什么类型的span,
例如16 byte的对象会使用span 2,17 byte的对象会使用span 3,32 byte的对象会使用span 3.
从这个例子也可以看到,分配17和32 byte的对象都会使用span 3,也就是说部分大小的对象在分配时会浪费一定的空间.

有人可能会注意到,上面最大的span的元素大小是32K,那么分配超过32K的对象会在哪里分配呢?
超过32K的对象称为"大对象",分配大对象时,会直接从heap分配一个特殊的span,
这个特殊的span的类型(class)是0,只包含了一个大对象,span的大小由对象的大小决定.

特殊的span加上的66个标准的span,一共组成了67个span类型.

Span的位置

在前一篇中我提到了P是一个虚拟的资源,同一时间只能有一个线程访问同一个P,所以P中的数据不需要锁.
为了分配对象时有更好的性能,各个P中都有span的缓存(也叫mcache),缓存的结构如下:

各个P中按span类型的不同,有67*2=134个span的缓存,

其中scan和noscan的区别在于,
如果对象包含了指针,分配对象时会使用scan的span,
如果对象不包含指针,分配对象时会使用noscan的span.
把span分为scan和noscan的意义在于,
GC扫描对象的时候对于noscan的span可以不去查看bitmap区域来标记子对象,这样可以大幅提升标记的效率.

在分配对象时将会从以下的位置获取适合的span用于分配:

• 首先从P的缓存(mcache)获取,如果有缓存的span并且未满则使用,这个步骤不需要锁
• 然后从全局缓存(mcentral)获取,如果获取成功则设置到P,这个步骤需要锁
• 最后从mheap获取,获取后设置到全局缓存,这个步骤需要锁

在P中缓存span的做法跟CoreCLR中线程缓存分配上下文(Allocation Context)的做法相似,
都可以让分配对象时大部分时候不需要线程锁,改进分配的性能.

分配对象的处理

分配对象的流程

go从堆分配对象时会调用newobject函数,这个函数的流程大致如下:

首先会检查GC是否在工作中,如果GC在工作中并且当前的G分配了一定大小的内存则需要协助GC做一定的工作,
这个机制叫GC Assist,用于防止分配内存太快导致GC回收跟不上的情况发生.

之后会判断是小对象还是大对象,如果是大对象则直接调用largeAlloc从堆中分配,
如果是小对象分3个阶段获取可用的span,然后从span中分配对象:

• 首先从P的缓存(mcache)获取
• 然后从全局缓存(mcentral)获取,全局缓存中有可用的span的列表
• 最后从mheap获取,mheap中也有span的自由列表,如果都获取失败则从arena区域分配

这三个阶段的详细结构如下图:

数据类型的定义

分配对象涉及的数据类型包含:

p: 前一篇提到过,P是协程中的用于运行go代码的虚拟资源
m: 前一篇提到过,M目前代表系统线程
g: 前一篇提到过,G就是goroutine
mspan: 用于分配对象的区块
mcentral: 全局的mspan缓存,一共有67*2=134个
mheap: 用于管理heap的对象,全局只有一个

源代码分析

go从堆分配对象时会调用newobject函数,先从这个函数看起:

// implementation of new builtin
// compiler (both frontend and SSA backend) knows the signature
// of this function
func newobject(typ *_type) unsafe.Pointer {
    return mallocgc(typ.size,typ,true)
}

newobject调用了mallocgc函数:

// Allocate an object of size bytes.
// Small objects are allocated from the per-P cache's free lists.
// Large objects (> 32 kB) are allocated straight from the heap.
func mallocgc(size uintptr,typ *_type,needzero bool) unsafe.Pointer {
    if gcphase == _GCmarktermination {
        throw("mallocgc called with gcphase == _GCmarktermination")
    }

    if size == 0 {
        return unsafe.Pointer(&zerobase)
    }

    if debug.sbrk != 0 {
        align := uintptr(16)
        if typ != nil {
            align = uintptr(typ.align)
        }
        return persistentalloc(size,align,&memstats.other_sys)
    }

    // 判断是否要辅助GC工作
    // gcBlackenEnabled在GC的标记阶段会开启
    // assistG is the G to charge for this allocation,or nil if
    // GC is not currently active.
    var assistG *g
    if gcBlackenEnabled != 0 {
        // Charge the current user G for this allocation.
        assistG = getg()
        if assistG.m.curg != nil {
            assistG = assistG.m.curg
        }
        // Charge the allocation against the G. We'll account
        // for internal fragmentation at the end of mallocgc.
        assistG.gcAssistBytes -= int64(size)

        // 会按分配的大小判断需要协助GC完成多少工作
        // 具体的算法将在下面讲解收集器时说明
        if assistG.gcAssistBytes < 0 {
            // This G is in debt. Assist the GC to correct
            // this before allocating. This must happen
            // before disabling preemption.
            gcAssistAlloc(assistG)
        }
    }

    // 增加当前G对应的M的lock计数,防止这个G被抢占
    // Set mp.mallocing to keep from being preempted by GC.
    mp := acquirem()
    if mp.mallocing != 0 {
        throw("malloc deadlock")
    }
    if mp.gsignal == getg() {
        throw("malloc during signal")
    }
    mp.mallocing = 1

    shouldhelpgc := false
    dataSize := size
    // 获取当前G对应的M对应的P的本地span缓存(mcache)
    // 因为M在拥有P后会把P的mcache设到M中,这里返回的是getg().m.mcache
    c := gomcache()
    var x unsafe.Pointer
    noscan := typ == nil || typ.kind&kindNoPointers != 0
    // 判断是否小对象,maxSmallSize当前的值是32K
    if size <= maxSmallSize {
        // 如果对象不包含指针,并且对象的大小小于16 bytes,可以做特殊处理
        // 这里是针对非常小的对象的优化,因为span的元素最小只能是8 byte,如果对象更小那么很多空间都会被浪费掉
        // 非常小的对象可以整合在"class 2 noscan"的元素(大小为16 byte)中
        if noscan && size < maxTinySize {
            // Tiny allocator.
            //
            // Tiny allocator combines several tiny allocation requests
            // into a single memory block. The resulting memory block
            // is freed when all subobjects are unreachable. The subobjects
            // must be noscan (don't have pointers),this ensures that
            // the amount of potentially wasted memory is bounded.
            //
            // Size of the memory block used for combining (maxTinySize) is tunable.
            // Current setting is 16 bytes,which relates to 2x worst case memory
            // wastage (when all but one subobjects are unreachable).
            // 8 bytes would result in no wastage at all,but provides less
            // opportunities for combining.
            // 32 bytes provides more opportunities for combining,
            // but can lead to 4x worst case wastage.
            // The best case winning is 8x regardless of block size.
            //
            // Objects obtained from tiny allocator must not be freed explicitly.
            // So when an object will be freed explicitly,we ensure that
            // its size >= maxTinySize.
            //
            // SetFinalizer has a special case for objects potentially coming
            // from tiny allocator,it such case it allows to set finalizers
            // for an inner byte of a memory block.
            //
            // The main targets of tiny allocator are small strings and
            // standalone escaping variables. On a json benchmark
            // the allocator reduces number of allocations by ~12% and
            // reduces heap size by ~20%.
            off := c.tinyoffset

接下来看看如何从span里面分配对象,首先会调用nextFreeFast尝试快速分配:

// nextFreeFast returns the next free object if one is quickly available.
// Otherwise it returns 0.
func nextFreeFast(s *mspan) gclinkptr {
    // 获取第一个非0的bit是第几个bit,也就是哪个元素是未分配的
    theBit := sys.Ctz64(s.allocCache) // Is there a free object in the allocCache?
    // 找到未分配的元素
    if theBit < 64 {
        result := s.freeindex + uintptr(theBit)
        // 要求索引值小于元素数量
        if result < s.nelems {
            // 下一个freeindex
            freeidx := result + 1
            // 可以被64整除时需要特殊处理(参考nextFree)
            if freeidx%64 == 0 && freeidx != s.nelems {
                return 0
            }
            // 更新freeindex和allocCache(高位都是0,用尽以后会更新)
            s.allocCache >>= uint(theBit + 1)
            s.freeindex = freeidx
            // 返回元素所在的地址
            v := gclinkptr(result*s.elemsize + s.base())
            // 添加已分配的元素计数
            s.allocCount++
            return v
        }
    }
    return 0
}

如果在freeindex后无法快速找到未分配的元素,就需要调用nextFree做出更复杂的处理:

// nextFree returns the next free object from the cached span if one is available.
// Otherwise it refills the cache with a span with an available object and
// returns that object along with a flag indicating that this was a heavy
// weight allocation. If it is a heavy weight allocation the caller must
// determine whether a new GC cycle needs to be started or if the GC is active
// whether this goroutine needs to assist the GC.
func (c *mcache) nextFree(spc spanClass) (v gclinkptr,s *mspan,shouldhelpgc bool) {
    // 找到下一个freeindex和更新allocCache
    s = c.alloc[spc]
    shouldhelpgc = false
    freeIndex := s.nextFreeIndex()
    // 如果span里面所有元素都已分配,则需要获取新的span
    if freeIndex == s.nelems {
        // The span is full.
        if uintptr(s.allocCount) != s.nelems {
            println("runtime: s.allocCount=",s.allocCount,"s.nelems=",s.nelems)
            throw("s.allocCount != s.nelems && freeIndex == s.nelems")
        }
        // 申请新的span
        systemstack(func() {
            c.refill(spc)
        })
        // 获取申请后的新的span,并设置需要检查是否执行GC
        shouldhelpgc = true
        s = c.alloc[spc]

        freeIndex = s.nextFreeIndex()
    }

    if freeIndex >= s.nelems {
        throw("freeIndex is not valid")
    }

    // 返回元素所在的地址
    v = gclinkptr(freeIndex*s.elemsize + s.base())
    // 添加已分配的元素计数
    s.allocCount++
    uintptr(s.allocCount) > s.nelems {
        "s.allocCount=",s.nelems)
        throw("s.allocCount > s.nelems")
    }
    return
}

如果mcache中指定类型的span已满,就需要调用refill函数申请新的span:

// Gets a span that has a free object in it and assigns it
// to be the cached span for the given sizeclass. Returns this span.
func (c *mcache) refill(spc spanClass) *mspan {
    _g_ := getg()

    // 防止G被抢占
    _g_.m.locks++
    // Return the current cached span to the central lists.
    s := c.alloc[spc]

    // 确保当前的span所有元素都已分配
    uintptr(s.allocCount) != s.nelems {
        throw("refill of span with free space remaining")
    }

    // 设置span的incache属性,除非是全局使用的空span(也就是mcache里面span指针的默认值)
    if s != &emptymspan {
        s.incache = false
    }

    // 向mcentral申请一个新的span
    // Get a new cached span from the central lists.
    s = mheap_.central[spc].mcentral.cacheSpan()
    if s == nil {
        throw("out of memory")
    }

    uintptr(s.allocCount) == s.nelems {
        throw("span has no free space")
    }

    // 设置新的span到mcache中
    c.alloc[spc] = s
    // 允许G被抢占
    _g_.m.locks--
    return s
}

向mcentral申请一个新的span会通过cacheSpan函数:
mcentral首先尝试从内部的链表复用原有的span,如果复用失败则向mheap申请.

// Allocate a span to use in an MCache.
func (c *mcentral) cacheSpan() *mspan {
    // 让当前G协助一部分的sweep工作
    // Deduct credit for this span allocation and sweep if necessary.
    spanBytes := uintptr(class_to_allocnpages[c.spanclass.sizeclass()]) * _PageSize
    deductSweepCredit(spanBytes,0)

    // 对mcentral上锁,因为可能会有多个M(P)同时访问
    lock(&c.lock)
    traceDone := false
    if trace.enabled {
        traceGCSweepStart()
    }
    sg := mheap_.sweepgen
retry:
    // mcentral里面有两个span的链表
    // - nonempty表示确定该span最少有一个未分配的元素
    // - empty表示不确定该span最少有一个未分配的元素
    // 这里优先查找nonempty的链表
    // sweepgen每次GC都会增加2
    // - sweepgen == 全局sweepgen,表示span已经sweep过
    // - sweepgen == 全局sweepgen-1,表示span正在sweep
    // - sweepgen == 全局sweepgen-2,表示span等待sweep
    var s *mspan
    for s = c.nonempty.first; s != nil; s = s.next {
        // 如果span等待sweep,尝试原子修改sweepgen为全局sweepgen-1
        if s.sweepgen == sg-2 && atomic.Cas(&s.sweepgen,sg-2,sg-1) {
            // 修改成功则把span移到empty链表,sweep它然后跳到havespan
            c.nonempty.remove(s)
            c.empty.insertBack(s)
            unlock(&c.lock)

            continue
        }
        // span已经sweep过

        // we have a nonempty span that does not require sweeping,allocate from it
        c.nonempty.remove(s)
        c.empty.insertBack(s)
        unlock(&c.lock)
        goto havespan
    }

    for s = c.empty.first; s != -1) {

            // we have an empty span that requires sweeping,
            // sweep it and see if we can free some space in it
            c.empty.remove(s)

mcentral向mheap申请一个新的span会使用grow函数:

// grow allocates a new empty span from the heap and initializes it for c's size class.
func (c *mcentral) grow() *mspan {
    // 根据mcentral的类型计算需要申请的span的大小(除以8K = 有多少页)和可以保存多少个元素

    n := (npages << _PageShift) / size

    // 向mheap申请一个新的span,以页(8K)为单位
    s := mheap_.alloc(npages,c.spanclass,false,21)">true)
    if s == nil {
        return nil
    }

    p := s.base()
    s.limit = p + size*n

    // 分配并初始化span的allocBits和gcmarkBits
    heapBitsForSpan(s.base()).initSpan(s)
    return s
}

mheap分配span的函数是alloc:

func (h *mheap) alloc(npage bool,255)">bool) *mspan {
    // 在g0的栈空间中调用alloc_m函数
    // 关于systemstack的说明请看前一篇文章
    // Don't do any operations that lock the heap on the G stack.
    // It might trigger stack growth,and the stack growth code needs
    // to be able to allocate heap.
    var s *mspan
    systemstack(func() {
        s = h.alloc_m(npage,spanclass,large)
    })

    if s != if needzero && s.needzero != 0 {
            memclrNoHeapPointers(unsafe.Pointer(s.base()),s.npages<<_PageShift)
        }
        s.needzero = 0
    }
    return s
}

alloc函数会在g0的栈空间中调用alloc_m函数:

// Allocate a new span of npage pages from the heap for GC'd memory
// and record its size class in the HeapMap and HeapMapCache.
func (h *mheap) alloc_m(npage bool) *mspan {
    _g_ := getg()
    if _g_ != _g_.m.g0 {
        throw("_mheap_alloc not on g0 stack")
    }
    // 对mheap上锁,这里的锁是全局锁
    lock(&h.lock)

    // 为了防止heap增速太快,在分配n页之前要先sweep和回收n页
    // 会先枚举busy列表然后再枚举busyLarge列表进行sweep,具体参考reclaim和reclaimList函数
    // To prevent excessive heap growth,before allocating n pages
    // we need to sweep and reclaim at least n pages.
    if h.sweepdone == 0 {
        // TODO(austin): This tends to sweep a large number of
        // spans in order to find a few completely free spans
        // (for example,in the garbage benchmark,this sweeps

freelarge的类型是mTreap,调用remove函数会在树里面搜索一个至少npage且在树中的最小的span返回:

// remove searches for,finds,removes from the treap,and returns the smallest
// span that can hold npages. If no span has at least npages return nil.
// This is slightly more complicated than a simple binary tree search

    nil
}

向arena区域申请新span的函数是mheap类的grow函数:

// Try to add at least npage pages of memory to the heap,
// returning whether it worked.
//
// h must be locked.
func (h *mheap) grow(npage uintptr) bool {
    // Ask for a big chunk,to reduce the number of mappings

    ask := npage << _PageShift
    if ask < _HeapAllocChunk {
        ask = _HeapAllocChunk
    }

    // 调用mheap.sysAlloc函数申请

以上就是分配对象的完整流程了,接下来分析GC标记和回收对象的处理.

回收对象的处理

回收对象的流程

GO的GC是并行GC,也就是GC的大部分处理和普通的go代码是同时运行的,这让GO的GC流程比较复杂.
首先GC有四个阶段,它们分别是:

• Sweep Termination: 对未清扫的span进行清扫,只有上一轮的GC的清扫工作完成才可以开始新一轮的GC
• Mark: 扫描所有根对象,和根对象可以到达的所有对象,标记它们不被回收
• Mark Termination: 完成标记工作,重新扫描部分根对象(要求STW)
• Sweep: 按标记结果清扫span

下图是比较完整的GC流程,并按颜色对这四个阶段进行了分类:

在GC过程中会有两种后台任务(G),一种是标记用的后台任务,一种是清扫用的后台任务.
标记用的后台任务会在需要时启动,可以同时工作的后台任务数量大约是P的数量的25%,也就是go所讲的让25%的cpu用在GC上的根据.
清扫用的后台任务在程序启动时会启动一个,进入清扫阶段时唤醒.

目前整个GC流程会进行两次STW(Stop The World),第一次是Mark阶段的开始,第二次是Mark Termination阶段.
第一次STW会准备根对象的扫描,启动写屏障(Write Barrier)和辅助GC(mutator assist).
第二次STW会重新扫描部分根对象,禁用写屏障(Write Barrier)和辅助GC(mutator assist).
需要注意的是,不是所有根对象的扫描都需要STW,例如扫描栈上的对象只需要停止拥有该栈的G.
从go 1.9开始,写屏障的实现使用了Hybrid Write Barrier,大幅减少了第二次STW的时间.

GC的触发条件

GC在满足一定条件后会被触发,触发条件有以下几种:

• gcTriggerAlways: 强制触发GC
• gcTriggerHeap: 当前分配的内存达到一定值就触发GC
• gcTriggerTime: 当一定时间没有执行过GC就触发GC
• gcTriggerCycle: 要求启动新一轮的GC,已启动则跳过,手动触发GC的runtime.GC()会使用这个条件

触发条件的判断在gctrigger的test函数.
其中gcTriggerHeap和gcTriggerTime这两个条件是自然触发的,gcTriggerHeap的判断代码如下:

return memstats.heap_live >= memstats.gc_trigger

heap_live的增加在上面对分配器的代码分析中可以看到,当值达到gc_trigger就会触发GC,那么gc_trigger是如何决定的?
gc_trigger的计算在gcSetTriggerRatio函数中,公式是:

trigger = uint64(float64(memstats.heap_marked) * (1 + triggerRatio))

当前标记存活的大小乘以1+系数triggerRatio,就是下次出发GC需要的分配量.
triggerRatio在每次GC后都会调整,计算triggerRatio的函数是encCycle,公式是:

const triggerGain = 0.5
// 目标Heap增长率,默认是1.0
goalGrowthRatio := float64(gcpercent) / 100
// 实际Heap增长率,等于总大小/存活大小-1
actualGrowthRatio := float64(memstats.heap_live)/float64(memstats.heap_marked) - 1
// GC标记阶段的使用时间(因为endCycle是在Mark Termination阶段调用的)
assistDuration := nanotime() - c.markStartTime
// GC标记阶段的CPU占用率,目标值是0.25
utilization := gcGoalUtilization
if assistDuration > 0 {
    // assistTime是G辅助GC标记对象所使用的时间合计
    // (nanosecnds spent in mutator assists during this cycle)
    // 额外的CPU占用率 = 辅助GC标记对象的总时间 / (GC标记使用时间 * P的数量)
    utilization += float64(c.assistTime) / float64(assistDuration*int64(gomaxprocs))
}
// 触发系数偏移值 = 目标增长率 - 原触发系数 - CPU占用率 / 目标CPU占用率 * (实际增长率 - 原触发系数)
// 参数的分析:
// 实际增长率越大,触发系数偏移值越小,小于0时下次触发GC会提早
// CPU占用率越大,小于0时下次触发GC会提早
// 原触发系数越大,小于0时下次触发GC会提早
triggerError := goalGrowthRatio - memstats.triggerRatio - utilization/gcGoalUtilization*(actualGrowthRatio-memstats.triggerRatio)
// 根据偏移值调整触发系数,每次只调整偏移值的一半(渐进式调整)
triggerRatio := memstats.triggerRatio + triggerGain*triggerError

公式中的"目标Heap增长率"可以通过设置环境变量"GOGC"调整,默认值是100,增加它的值可以减少GC的触发.
设置"GOGC=off"可以彻底关掉GC.

gcTriggerTime的判断代码如下:

lastgc := int64(atomic.Load64(&memstats.last_gc_nanotime))
return lastgc != 0 && t.now-lastgc > forcegcperiod

forcegcperiod的定义是2分钟,也就是2分钟内没有执行过GC就会强制触发.

三色的定义(黑,灰,白)

我看过的对三色GC的"三色"这个概念解释的最好的文章就是这一篇了,强烈建议先看这一篇中的讲解.
"三色"的概念可以简单的理解为:

• 黑色: 对象在这次GC中已标记,且这个对象包含的子对象也已标记
• 灰色: 对象在这次GC中已标记,但这个对象包含的子对象未标记
• 白色: 对象在这次GC中未标记

在go内部对象并没有保存颜色的属性,三色只是对它们的状态的描述,
白色的对象在它所在的span的gcmarkBits中对应的bit为0,
灰色的对象在它所在的span的gcmarkBits中对应的bit为1,并且对象在标记队列中,
黑色的对象在它所在的span的gcmarkBits中对应的bit为1,并且对象已经从标记队列中取出并处理.
gc完成后,gcmarkBits会移动到allocBits然后重新分配一个全部为0的bitmap,这样黑色的对象就变为了白色.

写屏障(Write Barrier)

因为go支持并行GC,GC的扫描和go代码可以同时运行,这样带来的问题是GC扫描的过程中go代码有可能改变了对象的依赖树,
例如开始扫描时发现根对象A和B,B拥有C的指针,GC先扫描A,然后B把C的指针交给A,GC再扫描B,这时C就不会被扫描到.
为了避免这个问题,go在GC的标记阶段会启用写屏障(Write Barrier).

启用了写屏障(Write Barrier)后,当B把C的指针交给A时,GC会认为在这一轮的扫描中C的指针是存活的,
即使A可能会在稍后丢掉C,那么C就在下一轮回收.
写屏障只针对指针启用,而且只在GC的标记阶段启用,平时会直接把值写入到目标地址.

go在1.9开始启用了混合写屏障(Hybrid Write Barrier),伪代码如下:

writePointer(slot,ptr):
    shade(*slot)
    if any stack is grey:
        shade(ptr)
    *slot = ptr

混合写屏障会同时标记指针写入目标的"原指针"和“新指针".

标记原指针的原因是,其他运行中的线程有可能会同时把这个指针的值复制到寄存器或者栈上的本地变量,
因为复制指针到寄存器或者栈上的本地变量不会经过写屏障,所以有可能会导致指针不被标记,试想下面的情况:

[go] b = obj
[go] oldx = nil
[gc] scan oldx...
[go] oldx = b.x // 复制b.x到本地变量,不进过写屏障
[go] b.x = ptr // 写屏障应该标记b.x的原值
[gc] scan b...
如果写屏障不标记原值,那么oldx就不会被扫描到.

标记新指针的原因是,其他运行中的线程有可能会转移指针的位置,试想下面的情况:

[go] a = ptr
[go] b = obj
[gc] scan b...
[go] b.x = a // 写屏障应该标记b.x的新值
[go] a = nil
[gc] scan a...
如果写屏障不标记新值,那么ptr就不会被扫描到.

混合写屏障可以让GC在并行标记结束后不需要重新扫描各个G的堆栈,可以减少Mark Termination中的STW时间.
除了写屏障外,在GC的过程中所有新分配的对象都会立刻变为黑色,在上面的mallocgc函数中可以看到.

辅助GC(mutator assist)

为了防止heap增速太快,在GC执行的过程中如果同时运行的G分配了内存,那么这个G会被要求辅助GC做一部分的工作.
在GC的过程中同时运行的G称为"mutator","mutator assist"机制就是G辅助GC做一部分工作的机制.

辅助GC做的工作有两种类型,一种是标记(Mark),另一种是清扫(Sweep).
辅助标记的触发可以查看上面的mallocgc函数,触发时G会帮助扫描"工作量"个对象,工作量的计算公式是:

debtBytes * assistWorkPerByte

意思是分配的大小乘以系数assistWorkPerByte,assistWorkPerByte的计算在函数revise中,公式是:

// 等待扫描的对象数量 = 未扫描的对象数量 - 已扫描的对象数量
scanWorkExpected := int64(memstats.heap_scan) - c.scanWork
if scanWorkExpected < 1000 {
    scanWorkExpected = 1000
}
// 距离触发GC的Heap大小 = 期待触发GC的Heap大小 - 当前的Heap大小
// 注意next_gc的计算跟gc_trigger不一样,next_gc等于heap_marked * (1 + gcpercent / 100)
heapDistance := int64(memstats.next_gc) - int64(atomic.Load64(&memstats.heap_live))
if heapDistance <= 0 {
    heapDistance = 1
}
// 每分配1 byte需要辅助扫描的对象数量 = 等待扫描的对象数量 / 距离触发GC的Heap大小
c.assistWorkPerByte = float64(scanWorkExpected) / float64(heapDistance)
c.assistBytesPerWork = float64(heapDistance) / float64(scanWorkExpected)

和辅助标记不一样的是,辅助清扫申请新span时才会检查,而辅助标记是每次分配对象时都会检查.
辅助清扫的触发可以看上面的cacheSpan函数,触发时G会帮助回收"工作量"页的对象,工作量的计算公式是:

spanBytes * sweepPagesPerByte // 不完全相同,具体看deductSweepCredit函数

意思是分配的大小乘以系数sweepPagesPerByte,sweepPagesPerByte的计算在函数gcSetTriggerRatio中,公式是:

// 当前的Heap大小
heapLiveBasis := atomic.Load64(&memstats.heap_live)
// 距离触发GC的Heap大小 = 下次触发GC的Heap大小 - 当前的Heap大小
heapDistance := int64(trigger) - int64(heapLiveBasis)
heapDistance -= 1024 * 1024
if heapDistance < _PageSize {
    heapDistance = _PageSize
}
// 已清扫的页数
pagesSwept := atomic.Load64(&mheap_.pagesSwept)
// 未清扫的页数 = 使用中的页数 - 已清扫的页数
sweepDistancePages := int64(mheap_.pagesInUse) - int64(pagesSwept)
if sweepDistancePages <= 0 {
    mheap_.sweepPagesPerByte = 0
} else {
    // 每分配1 byte(的span)需要辅助清扫的页数 = 未清扫的页数 / 距离触发GC的Heap大小
    mheap_.sweepPagesPerByte = float64(sweepDistancePages) / float64(heapDistance)
}

根对象

在GC的标记阶段首先需要标记的就是"根对象",从根对象开始可到达的所有对象都会被认为是存活的.
根对象包含了全局变量,各个G的栈上的变量等,GC会先扫描根对象然后再扫描根对象可到达的所有对象.
扫描根对象包含了一系列的工作,它们定义在[https://github.com/golang/go/blob/go1.9.2/src/runtime/mgcmark.go#L54]函数:

• Fixed Roots: 特殊的扫描工作
  • fixedRootFinalizers: 扫描析构器队列
  • fixedRootFreeGStacks: 释放已中止的G的栈
• Flush Cache Roots: 释放mcache中的所有span,要求STW
• Data Roots: 扫描可读写的全局变量
• BSS Roots: 扫描只读的全局变量
• Span Roots: 扫描各个span中特殊对象(析构器列表)
• Stack Roots: 扫描各个G的栈

标记阶段(Mark)会做其中的"Fixed Roots","Data Roots","BSS Roots","Span Roots","Stack Roots".
完成标记阶段(Mark Termination)会做其中的"Fixed Roots","Flush Cache Roots".

标记队列

GC的标记阶段会使用"标记队列"来确定所有可从根对象到达的对象都已标记,上面提到的"灰色"的对象就是在标记队列中的对象.
举例来说,如果当前有[A,B,C]这三个根对象,那么扫描根对象时就会把它们放到标记队列:

work queue: [A,C]

后台标记任务从标记队列中取出A,如果A引用了D,则把D放入标记队列:

work queue: [B,C,D]

后台标记任务从标记队列取出B,如果B也引用了D,这时因为D在gcmarkBits中对应的bit已经是1所以会跳过:

work queue: [C,D]

如果并行运行的go代码分配了一个对象E,对象E会被立刻标记,但不会进入标记队列(因为确定E没有引用其他对象).
然后并行运行的go代码把对象F设置给对象E的成员,写屏障会标记对象F然后把对象F加到运行队列:

work queue: [C,D,F]

后台标记任务从标记队列取出C,如果C没有引用其他对象,则不需要处理:

work queue: [D,F]

后台标记任务从标记队列取出D,如果D引用了X,则把X放入标记队列:

work queue: [F,X]

后台标记任务从标记队列取出F,如果F没有引用其他对象,则不需要处理.
后台标记任务从标记队列取出X,如果X没有引用其他对象,则不需要处理.
最后标记队列为空,标记完成,存活的对象有[A,E,F,X].

实际的状况会比上面介绍的状况稍微复杂一点.
标记队列会分为全局标记队列和各个P的本地标记队列,这点和协程中的运行队列相似.
并且标记队列为空以后,还需要停止整个世界并禁止写屏障,然后再次检查是否为空.

源代码分析

go触发gc会从gcStart函数开始:

// gcStart transitions the GC from _GCoff to _GCmark (if
// !mode.stwMark) or _GCmarktermination (if mode.stwMark) by
// performing sweep termination and GC initialization.
//

        // Perform mark termination. This will restart the world.
        gcMarkTermination(memstats.triggerRatio)
    }

    semrelease(&work.startSema)
}

接下来一个个分析gcStart调用的函数,建议配合上面的"回收对象的流程"中的图理解.

函数gcBgMarkStartWorkers用于启动后台标记任务,先分别对每个P启动一个:

// gcBgMarkStartWorkers prepares background mark worker goroutines.
// These goroutines will not run until the mark phase,but they must
// be started while the work is not stopped and from a regular G
// stack. The caller must hold worldsema.
func gcBgMarkStartWorkers() {
    // Background marking is performed by per-P G's. Ensure that
    // each P has a background GC G.
    for _,p := range &allp {
        if p == nil || p.status == _Pdead {
            break
        }
        // 如果已启动则不重复启动
        if p.gcBgMarkWorker == 0 {
            go gcBgMarkWorker(p)
            // 启动后等待该任务通知信号量bgMarkReady再继续
            notetsleepg(&work.bgMarkReady,-1)
            noteclear(&work.bgMarkReady)
        }
    }
}

这里虽然为每个P启动了一个后台标记任务,但是可以同时工作的只有25%,这个逻辑在协程M获取G时调用的findRunnableGCWorker中:

// findRunnableGCWorker returns the background mark worker for _p_ if it
// should be run. This must only be called when gcBlackenEnabled != 0.
func (c *gcControllerState) findRunnableGCWorker(_p_ *p) *g {
    if gcBlackenEnabled == 0 {
        throw("gcControllerState.findRunnable: blackening not enabled")
    }
    if _p_.gcBgMarkWorker == 0 {
        // The mark worker associated with this P is blocked
        // performing a mark transition. We can't run it
        // because it may be on some other run or wait queue.
        if !gcMarkWorkAvailable(_p_) {
        // No work to be done right now. This can happen at
        // the end of the mark phase when there are still
        // assists tapering off. Don't bother running a worker
        // now because it'll just return immediately.
        nil
    }

    // 原子减少对应的值,如果减少后大于等于0则返回true,否则返回false
    decIfPositive := func(ptr *int64) bool {
        if *ptr > 0 {
            if atomic.Xaddint64(ptr,-1) >= 0 {
                true
            }
            // We lost a race
            atomic.Xaddint64(ptr,+1)
        }
        false
    }

    // 减少dedicatedMarkWorkersNeeded,成功时后台标记任务的模式是Dedicated
    // dedicatedMarkWorkersNeeded是当前P的数量的25%去除小数点
    // 详见startCycle函数
    if decIfPositive(&c.dedicatedMarkWorkersNeeded) {
        // This P is now dedicated to marking until the end of
        // the concurrent mark phase.
        _p_.gcMarkWorkerMode = gcMarkWorkerDedicatedMode
    } else {
        // 减少fractionalMarkWorkersNeeded,成功是后台标记任务的模式是Fractional
        // 上面的计算如果小数点后有数值(不能够整除)则fractionalMarkWorkersNeeded为1,否则为0
        // 详见startCycle函数
        // 举例来说,4个P时会执行1个Dedicated模式的任务,5个P时会执行1个Dedicated模式和1个Fractional模式的任务
        if !decIfPositive(&c.fractionalMarkWorkersNeeded) {
            // No more workers are need right now.
            nil
        }

        // 按Dedicated模式的任务的执行时间判断cpu占用率是否超过预算值,超过时不启动
        // This P has picked the token for the fractional worker.
        // Is the GC currently under or at the utilization goal?
        // If so,do more work.
        //
        // We used to check whether doing one time slice of work
        // would remain under the utilization goal,but that has the
        // effect of delaying work until the mutator has run for
        // enough time slices to pay for the work. During those time
        // slices,write barriers are enabled,so the mutator is running slower.
        // Now instead we do the work whenever we're under or at the
        // utilization work and pay for it by letting the mutator run later.
        // This doesn't change the overall utilization averages,but it
        // front loads the GC work so that the GC finishes earlier and
        // write barriers can be turned off sooner,effectively giving
        // the mutator a faster machine.
        //
        // The old,slower behavior can be restored by setting
        // gcForcePreemptNS = forcePreemptNS.
        const gcForcePreemptNS = 0

        // TODO(austin): We could fast path this and basically
        // eliminate contention on c.fractionalMarkWorkersNeeded by
        // precomputing the minimum time at which it's worth
        // next scheduling the fractional worker. Then Ps
        // don't have to fight in the window where we've
        // passed that deadline and no one has started the
        // worker yet.
        //
        // TODO(austin): Shorter preemption interval for mark
        // worker to improve fairness and give this
        // finer-grained control over schedule?
        now := nanotime() - gcController.markStartTime
        then := now + gcForcePreemptNS
        timeUsed := c.fractionalMarkTime + gcForcePreemptNS
        if then > 0 && float64(timeUsed)/float64(then) > c.fractionalUtilizationGoal {
            // Nope,we'd overshoot the utilization goal
            atomic.Xaddint64(&c.fractionalMarkWorkersNeeded,+1)
            nil
        }
        _p_.gcMarkWorkerMode = gcMarkWorkerFractionalMode
    }

    // 安排后台标记任务执行
    // Run the background mark worker
    gp := _p_.gcBgMarkWorker.ptr()
    casgstatus(gp,_Gwaiting,_Grunnable)
    if trace.enabled {
        traceGoUnpark(gp,0)
    }
    return gp
}

gcResetMarkState函数会重置标记相关的状态:

// gcResetMarkState resets global state prior to marking (concurrent
// or STW) and resets the stack scan state of all Gs.
//
// This is safe to do without the world stopped because any Gs created
// during or after this will start out in the reset state.
func gcResetMarkState() {
    // This may be called during a concurrent phase,so make sure
    // allgs doesn't change.
    lock(&allglock)
    range allgs {
        gp.gcscandone = false  // set to true in gcphasework
        gp.gcscanvalid = false // stack has not been scanned
        gp.gcAssistBytes = 0
    }
    unlock(&allglock)

    work.bytesMarked = 0
    work.initialHeapLive = atomic.Load64(&memstats.heap_live)
    work.markrootDone = false
}

stopTheWorldWithSema函数会停止整个世界,这个函数必须在g0中运行:

// stopTheWorldWithSema is the core implementation of stopTheWorld.
// The caller is responsible for acquiring worldsema and disabling
// preemption first and then should stopTheWorldWithSema on the system
// stack:
//
// semacquire(&worldsema,0)
// m.preemptoff = "reason"
// systemstack(stopTheWorldWithSema)
//
// When finished,the caller must either call startTheWorld or undo
// these three operations separately:
//
// m.preemptoff = ""
// systemstack(startTheWorldWithSema)
// semrelease(&worldsema)
//
// It is allowed to acquire worldsema once and then execute multiple
// startTheWorldWithSema/stopTheWorldWithSema pairs.
// Other P's are able to execute between successive calls to
// startTheWorldWithSema and stopTheWorldWithSema.
// Holding worldsema causes any other goroutines invoking
// stopTheWorld to block.
func stopTheWorldWithSema() {
    _g_ := getg()

    // If we hold a lock,then we won't be able to stop another M
    // that is blocked trying to acquire the lock.
    if _g_.m.locks > 0 {
        throw("stopTheWorld: holding locks")
    }

    lock(&sched.lock)
    
    // 需要停止的P数量
    sched.stopwait = gomaxprocs
    
    // 设置gc等待标记,调度时看见此标记会进入等待

    sched.stopwait--

    for i := 0; i < int(gomaxprocs); i++ {
        p := allp[i]
        s := p.status
        if s == _Psyscall && atomic.Cas(&p.status,s,_Pgcstop) {
            if trace.enabled {

    wait := sched.stopwait > 0
    unlock(&sched.lock)

    // 如果仍有需要停止的P,则等待它们停止
    // wait for remaining P's to stop voluntarily

                noteclear(&sched.stopnote)
                break

finishsweep_m函数会清扫上一轮GC未清扫的span,确保上一轮GC已完成:

clearpools函数会清理sched.sudogcache和sched.deferpool,让它们的内存可以被回收:

startTheWorldWithSema函数会重新启动世界:

    gp.preemptscan = false // cancel scan request if no longer needed

设置preemptscan后,在抢占G成功时会调用scanstack扫描它自己的栈,具体代码在这里.
 扫描栈用的函数是scanstack:
 
  
 
   
// scanstack scans gp's stack,greying all pointers found on the stack.
//
// scanstack is marked go:systemstack because it must not be preempted
// while using a workbuf.
//

func scanstack(gp *g,gcw *gcWork) {

    case _Gdead:
        return
    case _Grunning:
        "scanstack: goroutine not stopped")
    // ok
    }

    if gp == getg() {
        throw("can't scan our own stack")
    }
    mp := gp.m
    if mp != nil && mp.helpgc != 0 {
        throw("can't scan gchelper stack")
    }

    // Shrink the stack if not much of it is being used. During
    // concurrent GC,we can do this during concurrent mark.
    if !work.markrootDone {
        shrinkstack(gp)
    }

    // Scan the stack.
    var cache pcvalueCache
    scanframe := func(frame *stkframe,unused unsafe.Pointer) bool {
        // scanframeworker会根据代码地址(pc)获取函数信息
        // 然后找到函数信息中的stackmap.bytedata,它保存了函数的栈上哪些地方有指针
        // 再调用scanblock来扫描函数的栈空间,同时函数的参数也会这样扫描
        scanframeworker(frame,&cache,gcw)
        true
    }

}
 
  
 
  
scanblock函数是一个通用的扫描函数,扫描全局变量和栈空间都会用它,和scanobject不同的是bitmap需要手动传入:
 
  
 
   
// scanblock scans b as scanobject would,but using an explicit
// pointer bitmap instead of the heap bitmap.
//
// This is used to scan non-heap roots,so it does not update
// gcw.bytesMarked or gcw.scanWork.
//
//go:nowritebarrier
func scanblock(b0,n0 uint8,gcw *gcWork) {
    // Use local copies of original parameters,so that a stack trace
    // due to one of the throws below shows the original block
    // base and extent.
    b := b0
    n := n0

    arena_start := mheap_.arena_start
    arena_used := mheap_.arena_used

    // 枚举扫描的地址
    uintptr(0); i < n; {
        // 找到bitmap中对应的byte
        // Find bits for the next word.
        bits := uint32(*addb(ptrmask,i/(sys.PtrSize*8)))
        if bits == 0 {
            i += sys.PtrSize * 8
            continue
        }
        // 枚举byte
        for j := 0; j < 8 && i < n; j++ {
            // 如果该地址包含指针
            if bits&1 != 0 {
                // 标记在该地址的对象存活,并把它加到标记队列(该对象变为灰色)
                // Same work as in scanobject; see comments there.
                obj := *(*uintptr)(unsafe.Pointer(b + i))
                if obj != 0 && arena_start <= obj && obj < arena_used {
                    // 找到该对象对应的span和bitmap
                    if obj,objIndex := heapBitsForObject(obj,b,i); obj != 0 {
                        // 标记一个对象存活,并把它加到标记队列(该对象变为灰色)
                        greyobject(obj,i,objIndex)

greyobject用于标记一个对象存活,并把它加到标记队列(该对象变为灰色):

    if !gcw.putFast(obj) {

gcDrain函数扫描完根对象,就会开始消费标记队列,对从标记队列中取出的对象调用scanobject函数:

            ")
            throw("MSpan_Sweep: bad span state after sweep")
        }
        // Serialization point.
        // At this point the mark bits are cleared and allocation ready
        // to go so release the span.
        atomic.Store(&s.sweepgen,sweepgen)
    }

    if nfreed > 0 && spc.sizeclass() != 0 {
        // 把span加到mcentral,res等于是否添加成功
        c.local_nsmallfree[spc.sizeclass()] += uintptr(nfreed)
        res = mheap_.central[spc].mcentral.freeSpan(s,preserve,wasempty)

    } if freeToHeap {

        // Free large span to heap

        // NOTE(rsc,dvyukov): The original implementation of efence
        // in CL 22060046 used SysFree instead of SysFault,so that
        // the operating system would eventually give the memory
        // back to us again,so that an efence program could run
        // longer without running out of memory. Unfortunately,
        // calling SysFree here without any kind of adjustment of the

        // the MSpan structures or in the garbage collection bitmap.
        // Using SysFault here means that the program will run out of
        // memory fairly quickly in efence mode,but at least it won't
        // have mysterious crashes due to confused memory reuse.

        // The span has been swept and is still in-use,so put
        // it on the swept in-use list.
        mheap_.sweepSpans[sweepgen/2%2].push(s)
    }
    return res
}
 
  
 
  
从bgsweep和前面的分配器可以看出扫描阶段的工作是十分懒惰(lazy)的,
 实际可能会出现前一阶段的扫描还未完成,就需要开始新一轮的GC的情况,
 所以每一轮GC开始之前都需要完成前一轮GC的扫描工作(Sweep Termination阶段).
 
  
GC的整个流程都分析完毕了,最后贴上写屏障函数writebarrierptr的实现:
 
  
 
   
// NOTE: Really dst *unsafe.Pointer,src unsafe.Pointer,
// but if we do that,Go inserts a write barrier on *dst = src.
//go:nosplit
func writebarrierptr(dst *uintptr) {
    if writeBarrier.cgo {
        cgoCheckWriteBarrier(dst,src)
    }
    if !writeBarrier.needed {
        *dst = src
        return
    }
    if src != 0 && src < minPhysPageSize {
        systemstack(func() {
            "runtime: writebarrierptr *",dst,21)">" = ",hex(src),21)">"bad pointer in write barrier")
        })
    }
    // 标记指针
    writebarrierptr_prewrite1(dst,src)
    // 设置指针到目标
    *dst = src
}
 
  
 
  
writebarrierptr_prewrite1函数如下:
 
  
 
   
// writebarrierptr_prewrite1 invokes a write barrier for *dst = src
// prior to the write happening.
//
// Write barrier calls must not happen during critical GC and scheduler
// related operations. In particular there are times when the GC assumes
// that the world is stopped but scheduler related code is still being
// executed,dealing with syscalls,dealing with putting gs on runnable
// queues and so forth. This code cannot execute write barriers because
// the GC might drop them on the floor. Stopping the world involves removing
// the p associated with an m. We use the fact that m.p == nil to indicate
// that we are in one these critical section and throw if the write is of
// a pointer to a heap object.
//go:nosplit
func writebarrierptr_prewrite1(dst *uintptr) {
    mp := acquirem()
    if mp.inwb || mp.dying > 0 {
        releasem(mp)
        return
    }
    systemstack(func() {
        if mp.p == 0 && memstats.enablegc && !mp.inwb && inheap(src) {
            throw("writebarrierptr_prewrite1 called with mp.p == nil")
        }
        mp.inwb = true
        gcmarkwb_m(dst,src)
    })
    mp.inwb = false
    releasem(mp)
}
 
  
 
  
gcmarkwb_m函数如下:
 
  
 
   
func gcmarkwb_m(slot *if writeBarrier.needed {
        // Note: This turns bad pointer writes into bad
        // pointer reads,which could be confusing. We avoid
        // reading from obviously bad pointers,which should
        // take care of the vast majority of these. We could
        // patch this up in the signal handler,or use XCHG to
        // combine the read and the write. Checking inheap is
        // insufficient since we need to track changes to
        // roots outside the heap.
        //
        // Note: profbuf.go omits a barrier during signal handler
        // profile logging; that's safe only because this deletion barrier exists.
        // If we remove the deletion barrier,we'll have to work out
        // a new way to handle the profile logging.
        if slot1 := uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(slot)); slot1 >= minPhysPageSize {
            if optr := *slot; optr != 0 {
                // 标记旧指针
                shade(optr)
            }
        }
        // TODO: Make this conditional on the caller's stack color.
        if ptr != 0 && inheap(ptr) {
            // 标记新指针
            shade(ptr)
        }
    }
}
 
  
 
  
shade函数如下:
 
  
 
   
// Shade the object if it isn't already.
// The object is not nil and known to be in the heap.
// Preemption must be disabled.
//go:nowritebarrier
func shade(b 0); obj != 0 {
        gcw := &getg().m.p.ptr().gcw
        // 标记一个对象存活,并把它加到标记队列(该对象变为灰色)
        greyobject(obj,objIndex)
        // 如果标记了禁止本地标记队列则flush到全局标记队列
        if gcphase == _GCmarktermination || gcBlackenPromptly {
            // Ps aren't allowed to cache work during mark
            // termination.
            gcw.dispose()
        }
    }
}

 Golang的GC和CoreCLR的GC对比
 
  
因为我之前已经对CoreCLR的GC做过分析(看这一篇和这一篇),这里我可以简单的对比一下CoreCLR和GO的GC实现:
 
  
 
   
CoreCLR的对象带有类型信息,GO的对象不带,而是通过bitmap区域记录哪些地方包含指针
 
   
CoreCLR分配对象的速度明显更快,GO分配对象需要查找span和写入bitmap区域
 
   
CoreCLR的收集器需要做的工作比GO多很多 
    
 
     
CoreCLR不同大小的对象都会放在一个segment中,只能线性扫描
 
     
CoreCLR判断对象引用要访问类型信息,而go只需要访问bitmap
 
     
CoreCLR清扫时要一个个去标记为自由对象,而go只需要切换allocBits
 
    
 
 
   
CoreCLR的停顿时间比GO要长 
    
 
     
虽然CoreCLR支持并行GC,但是没有GO彻底,GO连扫描根对象都不需要完全停顿
 
    
 
 
   
CoreCLR支持分代GC 
    
 
     
虽然Full GC时CoreCLR的效率不如GO,但是CoreCLR可以在大部分时候只扫描第0和第1代的对象
 
     
因为支持分代GC,通常CoreCLR花在GC上的CPU时间会比GO要少
 
    
 
 
  
 
  
CoreCLR的分配器和收集器通常比GO要高效,也就是说CoreCLR会有更高的吞吐量.
 但CoreCLR的最大停顿时间不如GO短,这是因为GO的GC整个设计都是为了减少停顿时间.
 
  
现在分布式计算和横向扩展越来越流行,比起追求单机吞吐量,追求低延迟然后让分布式解决吞吐量问题无疑是更明智的选择,GO的设计目标使得它比其他语言都更适合编写网络服务程序.
