Both compilers and also go/types don't permit duplicate types in
type switches; i.e., this spec change is documenting a status quo
that has existed for some time.
Furthermore, duplicate nils are not accepted by gccgo or go/types;
and more recently started causing a compiler error in gc. Permitting
them is inconsistent with the existing status quo.
Rather than making it an implementation restriction (as we have for
expression switches), this is a hard requirement since it was enforced
from the beginning (except for duplicate nils); it is also a well
specified requirement that does not pose a significant burden for
an implementation.

Consider this code:
func f(*int)
func g() {
p := new(int)
f(p)
}
where f is an assembly function.
In general liveness analysis assumes that during the call to f, p is dead
in this frame. If f has retained p, p will be found alive in f's frame and keep
the new(int) from being garbage collected. This is all correct and works.
We use the Go func declaration for f to give the assembly function
liveness information (the arguments are assumed live for the entire call).
Now consider this code:
func h1() {
p := new(int)
syscall.Syscall(1, 2, 3, uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(p)))
}
Here syscall.Syscall is taking the place of f, but because its arguments
are uintptr, the liveness analysis and the garbage collector ignore them.
Since p is no longer live in h once the call starts, if the garbage collector
scans the stack while the system call is blocked, it will find no reference
to the new(int) and reclaim it. If the kernel is going to write to *p once
the call finishes, reclaiming the memory is a mistake.
We can't change the arguments or the liveness information for
syscall.Syscall itself, both for compatibility and because sometimes the
arguments really are integers, and the garbage collector will get quite upset
if it finds an integer where it expects a pointer. The problem is that
these arguments are fundamentally untyped.
The solution we have taken in the syscall package's wrappers in past
releases is to insert a call to a dummy function named "use", to make
it look like the argument is live during the call to syscall.Syscall:
func h2() {
p := new(int)
syscall.Syscall(1, 2, 3, uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(p)))
use(unsafe.Pointer(p))
}
Keeping p alive during the call means that if the garbage collector
scans the stack during the system call now, it will find the reference to p.
Unfortunately, this approach is not available to users outside syscall,
because 'use' is unexported, and people also have to realize they need
to use it and do so. There is much existing code using syscall.Syscall
without a 'use'-like function. That code will fail very occasionally in
mysterious ways (see #13372).
This CL fixes all that existing code by making the compiler do the right
thing automatically, without any code modifications. That is, it takes h1
above, which is incorrect code today, and makes it correct code.
Specifically, if the compiler sees a foreign func definition (one
without a body) that has uintptr arguments, it marks those arguments
as "unsafe uintptrs". If it later sees the function being called
with uintptr(unsafe.Pointer(x)) as an argument, it arranges to mark x
as having escaped, and it makes sure to hold x in a live temporary
variable until the call returns, so that the garbage collector cannot
reclaim whatever heap memory x points to.
For now I am leaving the explicit calls to use in package syscall,
but they can be removed early in a future cycle (likely Go 1.7).
The rule has no effect on escape analysis, only on liveness analysis.

The spec defines precise numeric constants which do not overflow.
Consequently, +/-Inf and NaN values were excluded. The case was not
clear for -0.0 but they are mostly of interest to determine the sign
of infinities which don't exist.
That said, the conversion rules explicitly say that T(x) (for a numeric
x and floating-point type T) is the value after rounding per IEEE-754.
The result is constant if x is constant. Rounding per IEEE-754 can
produce a -0.0 which we cannot represent as a constant.
Thus, the spec is inconsistent. Attempt to fix the inconsistency by
adjusting the rounding rule rather than letting -0.0 into the language.
For more details, see the issue below.

First step towards cleaning up the operator section - no language
changes. Specifically:
- Grouped arithmetic operations by types (integer, floating-point,
string), with corresponding h4 headings.
- Changed Operator precedence title from h3 to h4.
- Moved Integer Overflow section after integer operations and changed
its title from h3 to h4.
This puts things that belong together closer. No heading id's were
lost (in case of references from outside the spec).

The spec didn't specify several aspects of expression switches:
- The switch expression is evaluated exactly once.
- Switch expressions evaluating to an untyped value are converted
to the respective default type before use.
- An (untyped) nil value is not permitted as expression switch
value. (We could permit it relatively easily, but gc doesn't,
and disallowing it is in symmetry with the rules for var decls
without explicit type and untyped initializer expressions.)
- The comparison x == t between each case expression x and
switch expression value t must be valid.
- (Some) duplicate constant case expressions are not permitted.
This change also clarifies the following issues:
4524: mult. equal int const switch case values should be illegal
-> spec issue fixed
6398: switch w/ no value uses bool rather than untyped bool
-> spec issue fixed
11578: allows duplicate switch cases -> go/types bug

The architecture letter is still used in the compiler and linker sources
as a clumsy architecture enumeration, but that use is not visible to

The heap statistics were only written if asked for a profile with debug > 0,
but that also prints a stack trace for each profile line, which is comparatively
much noisier. The statistics are short enough and separate enough
(they only appear at the end) and useful enough that we can print them
always.
This means that people using -test.memprofile in tests will get a memory
profile with statistics included now. Pprof won't care, but if people care to
look, the numbers will be there.
This avoids the need for hacks like using -memprofilerate=1 to find
the number of allocations.
