// Build IDs
//
// Go packages and binaries are stamped with build IDs that record both
// the action ID, which is a hash of the inputs to the action that produced
// the packages or binary, and the content ID, which is a hash of the action
// output, namely the archive or binary itself. The hash is the same one
// used by the build artifact cache (see cmd/go/internal/cache), but
// truncated when stored in packages and binaries, as the full length is not
// needed and is a bit unwieldy. The precise form is
//
//      actionID/[.../]contentID
//
// where the actionID and contentID are prepared by hashToString below.
// and are found by looking for the first or last slash.
// Usually the buildID is simply actionID/contentID, but see below for an
// exception.
//
// The build ID serves two primary purposes.
//
// 1. The action ID half allows installed packages and binaries to serve as
// one-element cache entries. If we intend to build math.a with a given
// set of inputs summarized in the action ID, and the installed math.a already
// has that action ID, we can reuse the installed math.a instead of rebuilding it.
//
// 2. The content ID half allows the easy preparation of action IDs for steps
// that consume a particular package or binary. The content hash of every
// input file for a given action must be included in the action ID hash.
// Storing the content ID in the build ID lets us read it from the file with
// minimal I/O, instead of reading and hashing the entire file.
// This is especially effective since packages and binaries are typically
// the largest inputs to an action.
//
// Separating action ID from content ID is important for reproducible builds.
// The compiler is compiled with itself. If an output were represented by its
// own action ID (instead of content ID) when computing the action ID of
// the next step in the build process, then the compiler could never have its
// own input action ID as its output action ID (short of a miraculous hash collision).
// Instead we use the content IDs to compute the next action ID, and because
// the content IDs converge, so too do the action IDs and therefore the
// build IDs and the overall compiler binary. See cmd/dist's cmdbootstrap
// for the actual convergence sequence.
//
// The “one-element cache” purpose is a bit more complex for installed
// binaries. For a binary, like cmd/gofmt, there are two steps: compile
// cmd/gofmt/*.go into main.a, and then link main.a into the gofmt binary.
// We do not install gofmt's main.a, only the gofmt binary. Being able to
// decide that the gofmt binary is up-to-date means computing the action ID
// for the final link of the gofmt binary and comparing it against the
// already-installed gofmt binary. But computing the action ID for the link
// means knowing the content ID of main.a, which we did not keep.
// To sidestep this problem, each binary actually stores an expanded build ID:
//
//      actionID(binary)/actionID(main.a)/contentID(main.a)/contentID(binary)
//
// (Note that this can be viewed equivalently as:
//
//      actionID(binary)/buildID(main.a)/contentID(binary)
//
// Storing the buildID(main.a) in the middle lets the computations that care
// about the prefix or suffix halves ignore the middle and preserves the
// original build ID as a contiguous string.)
//
// During the build, when it's time to build main.a, the gofmt binary has the
// information needed to decide whether the eventual link would produce
// the same binary: if the action ID for main.a's inputs matches and then
// the action ID for the link step matches when assuming the given main.a
// content ID, then the binary as a whole is up-to-date and need not be rebuilt.
//
// This is all a bit complex and may be simplified once we can rely on the
// main cache, but at least at the start we will be using the content-based
// staleness determination without a cache beyond the usual installed
// package and binary locations.

// detecting the need to rebuild installed files (not for lookups
// in the object file cache), 96 bits are sufficient to drive the
// probability of a false "do not need to rebuild" decision to effectively zero.
// We embed two different hashes in archives and four in binaries,
// so cutting to 16 bytes is a significant savings when build IDs are displayed.

// toolID returns the unique ID to use for the current copy of the
// named tool (asm, compile, cover, link).
//
// It is important that if the tool changes (for example a compiler bug is fixed
// and the compiler reinstalled), toolID returns a different string, so that old
// package archives look stale and are rebuilt (with the fixed compiler).
// This suggests using a content hash of the tool binary, as stored in the build ID.
//
// Unfortunately, we can't just open the tool binary, because the tool might be
// invoked via a wrapper program specified by -toolexec and we don't know
// what the wrapper program does. In particular, we want "-toolexec toolstash"
// to continue working: it does no good if "-toolexec toolstash" is executing a
// stashed copy of the compiler but the go command is acting as if it will run
// the standard copy of the compiler. The solution is to ask the tool binary to tell
// us its own build ID using the "-V=full" flag now supported by all tools.
// Then we know we're getting the build ID of the compiler that will actually run
// during the build. (How does the compiler binary know its own content hash?
// We store it there using updateBuildID after the standard link step.)
//
// A final twist is that we'd prefer to have reproducible builds for release toolchains.
// It should be possible to cross-compile for Windows from either Linux or Mac
// or Windows itself and produce the same binaries, bit for bit. If the tool ID,
// which influences the action ID half of the build ID, is based on the content ID,
// then the Linux compiler binary and Mac compiler binary will have different tool IDs
// and therefore produce executables with different action IDs.
// To avoids this problem, for releases we use the release version string instead
// of the compiler binary's content hash. This assumes that all compilers built
// on all different systems are semantically equivalent, which is of course only true
// modulo bugs. (Producing the exact same executables also requires that the different
// build setups agree on details like $GOROOT and file name paths, but at least the
// tool IDs do not make it impossible.)
