Golang has introduced three-color GC since 1.5. After many improvements, the GC pause time of the current 1.9 version can be extremely short. The reduction of pause time means "maximum The shortening of "response time" also makes go more suitable for writing network service programs.
This article will explain the implementation principle of three-color GC in go by analyzing the source code of golang.
Basic concepts
Memory structure
Go will allocate a piece of memory with a continuous virtual memory address when the program starts. The structure is as follows:
This memory is divided into 3 areas. The sizes on X64 are 512M, 16G and 512G respectively. Their functions are as follows:
arena
arena area is what we usually call heap. The memory allocated by go from heap is in this area.
bitmap
The bitmap area is used to indicate which addresses in the arena area store objects, and Which addresses in the object contain pointers.
One byte (8 bit) in the bitmap area corresponds to four pointer-sized memories in the arena area, that is, 2 bits correspond to one pointer-sized memory.
So the size of the bitmap area is 512GB / pointer size (8 byte) / 4 = 16GB.
One byte in the bitmap area corresponds to the four pointer-sized memories in the arena area. The structure of each pointer-sized memory is as follows. Each pointer-sized memory will have two bits indicating whether scanning should continue and whether it contains pointers:
The corresponding relationship between byte and arena in bitmap starts from the end, that is, it will expand to both sides with the memory allocation:
spans
The spans area is used to indicate which span a certain page (Page) in the arena area belongs to. What span is will be introduced below.
A pointer (8 byte) in the spans area corresponds to a page in the arena area (one page = 8KB in go).
So the size of spans is 512GB / page size (8KB) * pointer size (8 byte) = 512MB.
The structure of a pointer in the spans area corresponding to a page in the arena area is as follows. Unlike bitmap, the corresponding relationship will start from the beginning:
What? When allocating objects from Heap
As mentioned in many articles and books about go, go will automatically determine which objects should be placed on the stack and which objects should be placed on the heap.
Simply put, when the contents of an object may be accessed after the function that generates the object ends, then the object will be allocated on the heap.
The situations of allocating objects on the heap include:
1. Returning the pointer of the object
2. Passing the pointer of the object to other functions
3 , an object is used in a closure and the object needs to be modified
4. Using new
In C language, it is very dangerous for a function to return a pointer to an object on the stack, but in go But it is safe, because this object will be automatically allocated on the heap.
The process of go deciding whether to use the heap to allocate objects is also called "escape analysis".
GC Bitmap
GC When marking, you need to know which places contain pointers. For example, the bitmap area mentioned above covers the pointer information in the arena area.
In addition, the GC also needs to know where the stack space contains pointers. Because the stack space does not belong to the arena area, the pointer information of the stack space will be in the function information.
In addition, when GC allocates objects, it also needs to set the bitmap area according to the type of the object. The source pointer information will be in the type information.
To summarize, there are the following GC Bitmaps in go:
1. Bitmap area: covers the arena area, using 2 bits to represent a pointer-sized memory
2. Function Information: Covers the stack space of the function, using 1 bit to represent a pointer-sized memory (located in stackmap.bytedata)
3. Type information: When allocating objects, it will be copied to the bitmap area, using 1 bit to represent a Pointer-sized memory (located in _type.gcdata)
Span
span is a block used to allocate objects. The following figure briefly illustrates the internal structure of Span:
Usually a span contains multiple elements of the same size, and each element will save an object, unless:
1. span is used to save large objects, in which case span has only one element
2. Span is used to save tiny objects that do not contain pointers. In this case, span will use one element to save multiple objects.
There is a freeindex in span to mark the next allocation. The address at which the object should start searching. After allocation, freeindex will increase. The elements before freeindex are all allocated. The elements after freeindex may have been allocated or may not have been allocated.
span Some elements may be recycled after each GC. allocBits is used to mark which elements are allocated and which elements are unallocated.
Using freeindex allocBits can skip allocated elements during allocation and set the object in unallocated elements, but because accessing allocBits every time will be slower, there is an integer in span allocCache is used to cache the bitmap starting from freeindex. The cached bit value is opposite to the original value.
gcmarkBits are used to mark which objects are alive during gc. After each gc, gcmarkBits will become allocBits.
It should be noted that the memory of the span structure itself is allocated from the system. The spans mentioned above Both the area and the bitmap area are just an index.
Span type
span can be divided into 67 types according to size, as follows:
// class bytes/obj bytes/span objects tail waste max waste // 1 8 8192 1024 0 87.50% // 2 16 8192 512 0 43.75% // 3 32 8192 256 0 46.88% // 4 48 8192 170 32 31.52% // 5 64 8192 128 0 23.44% // 6 80 8192 102 32 19.07% // 7 96 8192 85 32 15.95% // 8 112 8192 73 16 13.56% // 9 128 8192 64 0 11.72% // 10 144 8192 56 128 11.82% // 11 160 8192 51 32 9.73% // 12 176 8192 46 96 9.59% // 13 192 8192 42 128 9.25% // 14 208 8192 39 80 8.12% // 15 224 8192 36 128 8.15% // 16 240 8192 34 32 6.62% // 17 256 8192 32 0 5.86% // 18 288 8192 28 128 12.16% // 19 320 8192 25 192 11.80% // 20 352 8192 23 96 9.88% // 21 384 8192 21 128 9.51% // 22 416 8192 19 288 10.71% // 23 448 8192 18 128 8.37% // 24 480 8192 17 32 6.82% // 25 512 8192 16 0 6.05% // 26 576 8192 14 128 12.33% // 27 640 8192 12 512 15.48% // 28 704 8192 11 448 13.93% // 29 768 8192 10 512 13.94% // 30 896 8192 9 128 15.52% // 31 1024 8192 8 0 12.40% // 32 1152 8192 7 128 12.41% // 33 1280 8192 6 512 15.55% // 34 1408 16384 11 896 14.00% // 35 1536 8192 5 512 14.00% // 36 1792 16384 9 256 15.57% // 37 2048 8192 4 0 12.45% // 38 2304 16384 7 256 12.46% // 39 2688 8192 3 128 15.59% // 40 3072 24576 8 0 12.47% // 41 3200 16384 5 384 6.22% // 42 3456 24576 7 384 8.83% // 43 4096 8192 2 0 15.60% // 44 4864 24576 5 256 16.65% // 45 5376 16384 3 256 10.92% // 46 6144 24576 4 0 12.48% // 47 6528 32768 5 128 6.23% // 48 6784 40960 6 256 4.36% // 49 6912 49152 7 768 3.37% // 50 8192 8192 1 0 15.61% // 51 9472 57344 6 512 14.28% // 52 9728 49152 5 512 3.64% // 53 10240 40960 4 0 4.99% // 54 10880 32768 3 128 6.24% // 55 12288 24576 2 0 11.45% // 56 13568 40960 3 256 9.99% // 57 14336 57344 4 0 5.35% // 58 16384 16384 1 0 12.49% // 59 18432 73728 4 0 11.11% // 60 19072 57344 3 128 3.57% // 61 20480 40960 2 0 6.87% // 62 21760 65536 3 256 6.25% // 63 24576 24576 1 0 11.45% // 64 27264 81920 3 128 10.00% // 65 28672 57344 2 0 4.91% // 66 32768 32768 1 0 12.50%
With type (class) as 1 Take span as an example,
The element size in span is 8 bytes, span itself occupies 1 page, which is 8K, and a total of 1024 objects can be saved.
When allocating objects, it will be determined based on the size of the object What type of span to use,
For example, a 16 byte object will use span 2, a 17 byte object will use span 3, and a 32 byte object will use span 3.
You can also see from this example that allocation 17 and 32-byte objects will use span 3, which means that partial-size objects will waste a certain amount of space when allocated.
Someone may notice that the element size of the largest span above is 32K, then allocate Where will objects exceeding 32K be allocated?
Objects exceeding 32K are called "large objects". When allocating large objects, a special span will be allocated directly from the heap.
The type of this special span (class ) is 0, which only contains a large object. The size of the span is determined by the size of the object.
The special span plus 66 standard spans make up a total of 67 span types.
The location of Span
In the previous article, I mentioned that P is a virtual resource. Only one thread can access the same P at the same time, so the data in P does not need to be locked.
In order to have better performance when allocating objects, each P has a span cache (also called mcache). The cache structure is as follows:
Each P has a span type The difference is that there are 67*2=134 span caches.
The difference between scan and noscan is that,
If the object contains a pointer, the span of scan will be used when allocating the object.
If The object does not contain a pointer, and the span of noscan will be used when allocating the object.
The significance of dividing span into scan and noscan is that, when GC scans the object, the span of noscan does not need to check the bitmap area to mark the sub-object. , this can greatly improve the efficiency of marking.
It can allocate objects without requiring thread locks most of the time, improving the performance of allocation.
This mechanism is called GC Assist, which is used to prevent GC recycling from allocating memory too quickly. If it is not, it will be judged later whether it is a small object or a large object. If it is a large object, largeAlloc will be called directly to allocate it from the heap.
If it is a small object, the available span will be obtained in three stages. , and then allocate the object from the span:
#Definition of data types
m: As mentioned in the previous article, M currently represents the system thread
g: Before As mentioned in one article, G is goroutinemspan: the block used to allocate objects
mcentral: the global mspan cache, a total of 67*2=134
mheap: the object used to manage the heap , There is only one global

// 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?

// 返回元素所在的地址

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

func (c *mcache) refill(spc spanClass) *mspan {

}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, 触发系数偏移值越小, 小于0时下次触发GC会提早
// 原触发系数越大, 触发系数偏移值越小, 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 <p>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.<br>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:</p><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">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 <p id="根对象">根对象</p><p>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.<br>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.<br>扫描根对象包含了一系列的工作, 它们定义在函数:</p><p>Fixed Roots: 特殊的扫描工作</p><p>fixedRootFinalizers: 扫描析构器队列</p><p>fixedRootFreeGStacks: 释放已中止的G的栈</p><p>Flush Cache Roots: 释放mcache中的所有span, 要求STW</p><p>Data Roots: 扫描可读写的全局变量</p><p>BSS Roots: 扫描只读的全局变量</p><p>Span Roots: 扫描各个span中特殊对象(析构器列表)</p><p>Stack Roots: 扫描各个G的栈</p><p>标记阶段(Mark)会做其中的"Fixed Roots", "Data Roots", "BSS Roots", "Span Roots", "Stack Roots".</p><p>完成标记阶段(Mark Termination)会做其中的"Fixed Roots", "Flush Cache Roots".</p><p>标记队列</p><p>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.</p><p>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:</p><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">work queue: [A, B, 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, B, C, D, 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.

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")
}

// performing a mark transition. We can't run it
// because it may be on some other run or wait queue.
return nil
}
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.
return nil
}

if *ptr > 0 {
if atomic.Xaddint64(ptr, -1) >= 0 {
return true
}
// We lost a race
atomic.Xaddint64(ptr, +1)
}
return 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.
return 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

}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, src uintptr) {
if writeBarrier.cgo {
cgoCheckWriteBarrier(dst, src)
}
if !writeBarrier.needed {
*dst = src
return
}
if src != 0 && src <p>writebarrierptr_prewrite1函数如下:</p><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">// 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, src 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 *uintptr, ptr uintptr) { 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 uintptr) {
if obj, hbits, span, objIndex := heapBitsForObject(b, 0, 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, 0, 0, hbits, span, gcw, 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()
}
}
