What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version go1.20 darwin/arm64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes.

What operating system and processor architecture are you using

any/arm64

What did you do?

Try to implement frame pointer unwinding for the tracer (gh 16638, wip patch).

What did you expect to see?

copystack should adjust frame pointers on the stack when growing the stack.

What did you see instead?

TODO what about arm64 frame pointer adjustment? 😅.

Seems like this issue was missed when the CL 61511 for this landed in 2018.

This is causing lots of crashes when trying to frame pointer unwind stacks that have grown.

Possibly related to #53037?

@mknyszek @prattmic @aclements FYI. Took me a while to debug the fp unwinding crashes I saw, but this seems to be the root cause and relatively easy to fix (see CL above). However, the fix reveals (or causes?) more issues with frame pointers on arm64,- details are in CL 466315.

I'm putting this on hold for now and will focus on making fp unwinding work on amd64 first. But if anybody has a good idea, please let me know :).

Not sure. But I think #39524 is definitely related.

There's a lot of work to be done here, can you try if this CL https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/241158 works for you first?

Thanks @erifan - I hadn't seen this CL. Will definitely try it out.

My colleague @nsrip-dd and I are currently looking at this. Could you elaborate what you mean by "a lot of work to be done here"? We can't really figure out why the patch had stalled and what other things might need to be done here. cc @cherrymui

I'm not sure there are a lot. But I'm also not sure if that CL is not enough to ensure frame pointer working everywhere. (It is probably enough for this particular issue.) There are probably a few places we smashed the frame pointer. CL https://golang.org/cl/241080 was one I found. There may be others. Syscall wrappers might be some. I'm happy to update that CL.

@cherrymui thanks for the fast reply! Yeah, we suspect that there are more problems like the one you mentioned. We see a lot of crashes when enabling debugCheckBP on arm64, even after applying the changes from you CL. That being said, if you could update the CL that'd be awesome. We'd be happy to review and test this 🙇 .

@nsrip-dd @mknyszek
runtime: save frame pointer to the stack in signal handlers for arm64
c00e928 
When taking over the goroutine stack in the panic or preemption signal
handlers on arm64, the frame pointer should be saved on the stack (like
the link register) so that frame-pointer unwinding from a panic stack
works properly. Otherwise, tests like TestStackWrapperStackPanic will
fail with the frame pointer check in adjustframe (enabled with
debugCheckBP) when checking the sigpanic frame.

@nsrip-dd @gopherbot
runtime: zero saved frame pointer when reusing goroutine stack on arm64
94d36fb 
When a goroutine stack is reused on arm64, the spot on the stack where
the "caller's" frame pointer goes for the topmost frame should be
explicitly zeroed. Otherwise, the frame pointer check in adjustframe
with debugCheckBP enabled will fail on the topmost frame of a call stack
the first time a reused stack is grown.
