Added a complement to (*File).Symbols for the dynamic symbol table.
Would be useful, for instance, if seraching for certain shared objects
compatible with certain libraries (for instance, LADSPA requires an
exported symbol "ladspa_descriptor").
Added a variable ErrNoSymbols that canonicalizes a return from
(*File).Symbols and (*File).DyanmicSymbols if the file has no symbols.
Added tests for both (*File).Symbols and (*File).DynamicSymbols;
there was never a test for (*File).Symbols at all. A small C program using
libelf, included in the test data, was used to produce the golden
symbols to compare against.
As part of the requirements for testing, (*File).Symbols and (*File).DynamicSymbols now document the order in which the symbol tables are returned (in the order the symbols appear in the file).
All tests currently pass.

size instead of abusing text symbol
cmd/addr2line needs to know the virtual address of the start
of the text segment (load address plus header size). For
this, it used the text symbol added by the linker. This is
wrong on amd64. Header size is 40 bytes, not 32 like on 386
and arm. Function alignment is 16 bytes causing text to be
at 0x200030.
debug/plan9obj now exports both the load address and the
header size; cmd/addr2line uses this new information and

NetlinkRIB is currently allocating a page sized slice of bytes in a

This CL changes NetlinkRIB to preallocate the page sized slice of

and lowers the number of calls to Getpagesize() to 1 per NetlinkRIB
call.
This CL reduces the allocated memory from 141.5 MB down to 52 MB in

Fixes#8165.
After this change, the panic is replaced by a message:
$ go build -o out ...doesntexist
warning: "...doesntexist" matched no packages
no packages to build
The motivation to return 1 exit error code is to allow -o flag
to be used to guarantee that the output binary is written to
when exit status is 0. If someone uses an import path pattern
to specify a single package and suddenly that matches no packages,
it's better to return exit code 1 instead of silently doing nothing.
This is consistent with the case when -o flag is given and multiple
packages are matched.
It's also somewhat consistent with the current behavior with the
panic, except that gave return code 2. But it's similar in
that it's also non-zero (indicating failure).
I've changed the language to be similar to output of go test
when an import path pattern matches no packages (it also has a return status of
1):
$ go test ...doesntexist
warning: "...doesntexist" matched no packages
no packages to test

The code generating the .debug_frame section emits pairs of "advance PC",
"set SP offset" pseudo-instructions. Before the fix, the PC advance comes
out before the SP setting, which means the emitted offset for a block is
actually the value at the end of the block, which is incorrect for the
block itself.
The easiest way to fix this problem is to emit the SP offset before the
PC advance.
One delicate point: the last instruction to come out is now an
"advance PC", which means that if there are padding intsructions after
the final RET, they will appear to have a non-zero offset. This is odd
but harmless because there is no legal way to have a PC in that range,
or to put it another way, if you get here the SP is certainly screwed up
so getting the wrong (virtual) frame pointer is the least of your worries.

Based on cl/69170045 by Elias Naur.
There are currently several schemes for acquiring a TLS
slot to save the g register. None of them appear to work
for android. The closest are linux and darwin.
Linux uses a linker TLS relocation. This is not supported
by the android linker.
Darwin uses a fixed offset, and calls pthread_key_create
until it gets the slot it wants. As the runtime loads
late in the android process lifecycle, after an
arbitrary number of other libraries, we cannot rely on
any particular slot being available.
So we call pthread_key_create, take the first slot we are
given, and put it in runtime.tlsg, which we turn into a
regular variable in cmd/ld.
Makes android/arm cgo binaries work.

The main changes fall into a few patterns:

2. Add /*c2go */ comment giving effect of #define.
This is necessary for function-like #defines and
non-enum-able #defined constants.
(Not all compilers handle negative or large enums.)
3. Add extra braces in struct initializer.
(c2go does not implement the full rules.)

A TLS slot is reserved by _rt0_.*_plan9 as an automatic and
its address (which is static on Plan 9) is saved in the
global _privates symbol. The startup linkage now is exactly
like that from Plan 9 libc, and the way we access g is
exactly as if we'd have used privalloc(2).
Aside from making the code more standard, this change
drastically simplifies it, both for 386 and for amd64, and
makes the Plan 9 code in liblink common for both 386 and
amd64.
The amd64 runtime code was cleared of nxm assumptions, and
now runs on the standard Plan 9 kernel.

runtime: stack allocator, separate from mallocgc

during malloc, malloc will not be available
to allocate a new stack.
Stacks are the last remaining FlagNoGC objects in the

This removes a major unsafe thorn in our side, a perennial obstacle
to clean garbage collection.
Not coincidentally: In cleaning this up, several bugs were found,
including code that reached inside by-value interfaces to create
pointers for pointer-receiver methods. Unsafe code is just as
advertised.
Performance of course suffers, but not too badly. The Pipe number
is more indicative, since it's doing I/O that simulates a network
connection. Plus these are end-to-end, so each end suffers
only half of this pain.
The edit is pretty much a line-by-line conversion, with a few
simplifications and a couple of new tests. There may be more
performance to gain.

The runtime has historically held two dedicated values g (current goroutine)
and m (current thread) in 'extern register' slots (TLS on x86, real registers

This CL removes the extern register m; code now uses g->m.
On ARM, this frees up the register that formerly held m (R9).
This is important for NaCl, because NaCl ARM code cannot use R9 at all.
