In general, the build tag "go1.x" will be satisfied by any Go 1.z release >= 1.x.
What happens when we reach Go 2 is yet to be decided.
The tags "go1" or "go1.0" are missing, because +build tags did not exist

The new -installsuffix flag gives access to the build context's InstallSuffix

The sticking point on 386 has been the "PC relative" relocations
used to point the garbage collection metadata at the type info.
These aren't in the code segment, and I don't trust that the linker
isn't doing something special that would be okay in code but
not when interpreting the pointers as data (for example, a PLT
jump table would be terrible).
Solve the problem in two steps:
1. Handle "PC relative" relocations within a section internally,
so that the external linker never sees them.
2. Move the gcdata and gcbss tables into the rodata section,
where the type information lives, so that the relocations can
be handled internally.
(To answer the obvious question, we make the gc->type
references relative so that they need not be relocated
individually when generating a shared object file.)

runtime: double-check that symbol table is sorted
If the symbol table is unsorted, the binary search in findfunc
will not find its func, which will make stack traces stop early.
When the garbage collector starts using the stack tracer,
that would be a serious problem.
The unsorted symbol addresses came from from two things:
1. The symbols in an ELF object are not necessarily sorted,
so sort them before adding them to the symbol list.
2. The __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx symbol is present in multiple
object files and was having its address adjusted multiple
times, producing an incorrect address in the symbol table.

This is the plan for how to make host linking work with
the rest of the system.
There are two complications:
1. It is a goal to preserve the property that pure Go programs

gcc, so that a Go toolchain download works out of the box.
This forces the support for two linking modes: with and without
gcc.
2. It is a goal to allow users with old copies of SWIG to continue

packages. Perhaps it is reasonable to require a new SWIG.

This CL changes the encoding used for the Go symbol table,
stored in the binary and used at run time. It does not change
any of the semantics or structure: the bits are just packed
a little differently.
The comment at the top of runtime/symtab.c describes the new format.
Compared to the Go 1.0 format, the main changes are:
* Store symbol addresses as full-pointer-sized host-endian values.
(For 6g, this means addresses are 64-bit little-endian.)
* Store other values (frame sizes and so on) varint-encoded.
The second change more than compensates for the first:
for the godoc binary on OS X/amd64, the new symbol table
is 8% smaller than the old symbol table (1,425,668 down from 1,546,276).
This is a required step for allowing the host linker (gcc) to write
the final Go binary, since it will have to fill in the symbol address slots
(so the slots must be host-endian) and on 64-bit systems it may
choose addresses above 4 GB.

The type information is (and for years has been) included
as an extra field in the address chunk of an instruction.
Unfortunately, suppose there is a string at a+24(FP) and
we have an instruction reading its length. It will say:
MOVQ x+32(FP), AX
and the type of *that* argument is int (not slice), because
it is the length being read. This confuses the picture seen
by debuggers and now, worse, by the garbage collector.
Instead of attaching the type information to all uses,
emit an explicit list of TYPE instructions with the information.
The TYPE instructions are no-ops whose only role is to
provide an address to attach type information to.
For example, this function:
func f(x, y, z int) (a, b string) {
return
}
now compiles into:
--- prog list "f" ---
0000 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TEXT f+0(SB),$0-56
0001 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) LOCALS ,
0002 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) TYPE x+0(FP){int},$8

0010 (/Users/rsc/x.go:3) MOVQ $0,a+32(FP)
0011 (/Users/rsc/x.go:4) RET ,
The { } show the formerly hidden type information.
The { } syntax is used when printing from within the gc compiler.
It is not accepted by the assemblers.
The same type information is now included on global variables:
0055 (/Users/rsc/x.go:15) GLOBL slice+0(SB){[]string},$24(AL*0)
This more accurate type information fixes a bug in the

Also:
- faster code for example extraction
- simplify handling of command documentation:
all "main" packages are treated as commands
- various minor cleanups along the way
For commands written in Go, any doc.go file containing
documentation must now be part of package main (rather
then package documentation), otherwise the documentation
won't show up in godoc (it will still build, though).
For commands written in C, documentation may still be
in doc.go files defining package documentation, but the
recommended way is to explicitly ignore those files with
a +build ignore constraint to define package main.

The routine that adds an automatic to the stack was
adding ptrsize-1 to the size before rounding up.
That addition would only make sense to turn a round down
into a round up. Before a round up, it just wastes a word.
The effect was that a 6c function with one local and
one two-word function call used (8+8)+(16+8) = 40 bytes
instead of 8+16 = 24 bytes.
The wasted space mostly didn't matter, but one place where
it does matter is when trying to stay within the 128-byte
total frame constraint for #pragma textflag 7 functions.
This only affects the C compilers, not the Go compilers.
5c already had correct code, which is now copied to 6c and 8c.

A step toward a fix for issue 4069.
To allow linking with arbitrary host object files, add a linker mode
that can generate a host object file instead of an executable.
Then the host linker can be invoked to generate the final executable.
This CL adds a new -hostobj flag that instructs the linker to write
a host object file instead of an executable.
That is, this works:
go tool 6g x.go
go tool 6l -hostobj -o x.o x.6
ld -e _rt0_amd64_linux x.o
./a.out
as does:
go tool 8g x.go
go tool 8l -hostld ignored -o x.o x.8
ld -m elf_i386 -e _rt0_386_linux x.o
./a.out
Because 5l was never updated to use the standard relocation scheme,
it will take more work to get this working on ARM.
This is a checkpoint of the basic functionality. It does not work
with cgo yet, and cgo is the main reason for the change.
The command-line interface will likely change too.
The gc linker has other information that needs to be returned to
the caller for use when invoking the host linker besides the single
object file.

Back in the day, before the Go 1.0 release, $GOROOT was mandatory for building from source. Fast forward to now and $GOPATH is mandatory and $GOROOT is optional, and mainly used by those who use the binary distribution in uncommon places.
For example, most novices at least know about `sudo` as they would have used it to install the binary tarball into /usr/local. It is logical they would use the `sudo` hammer to `go get` other Go packages when faced with a permission error talking about the path they just had to use `sudo` on last time.
Even if they had read the documentation and set $GOPATH, go get will not work as expected as `sudo` masks most environment variables.
llucky(~) % ~/go/bin/go env | grep GOPATH
GOPATH="/home/dfc"
lucky(~) % sudo ~/go/bin/go env | grep GOPATH
GOPATH=""
This CL therefore proposes to remove support for using `go get` to download source into $GOROOT.
This CL also proposes an error when GOPATH=$GOROOT, as this is another place where new Go users can get stuck.

package flag. It also changes the linkers and compilers to use
the new flag parser.
Command lines that used to work, like
8c -FVw
6c -Dfoo
5g -I/foo/bar
now need to be split into separate arguments:
8c -F -V -w
6c -D foo
5g -I /foo/bar
The new spacing will work with both old and new tools.
The new parser also allows = for arguments, as in
6c -D=foo
5g -I=/foo/bar
but that syntax will not work with the old tools.
In addition to matching standard Go binary flag parsing,
the new flag parser generates more detailed usage messages
and opens the door to long flag names.

The Plan 9 symbol table format defines big-endian symbol values
for portability, but we want to be able to generate an ELF object file
and let the host linker link it, as part of the solution to issue 4069.
The symbol table itself, since it is loaded into memory at run time,
must be filled in by the final host linker, using relocation directives
to set the symbol values. On a little-endian machine, the linker will
only fill in little-endian values during relocation, so we are forced
to use little-endian symbol values.
To preserve most of the original portability of the symbol table
format, we make the table itself say whether it uses big- or
little-endian values. If the table begins with the magic sequence
fe ff ff ff 00 00
then the actual table begins after those six bytes and contains
little-endian symbol values. Otherwise, the table is in the original
format and contains big-endian symbol values. The magic sequence
looks like an "end of table" entry (the fifth byte is zero), so legacy
readers will see a little-endian table as an empty table.
All the gc architectures are little-endian today, so the practical
effect of this CL is to make all the generated tables little-endian,
but if a big-endian system comes along, ld will not generate
the magic sequence, and the various readers will fall back to the
original big-endian interpretation.

An error during the compilation can be more precise

For 'func init', the error happens always: you can't forward

For other funcs, the error happens only with the special

Fixes#4396.
For fixed arrays larger than the unmapped page, agenr would general a nil check by loading the first word of the array. However there is no requirement for the first element of a byte array to be word aligned, so this check causes a trap on ARMv5 hardware (ARMv6 since relaxed that restriction, but it probably still comes at a cost).
Switching the check to MOVB ensures alignment is not an issue. This check is only invoked in a few places in the code where large fixed arrays are embedded into structs, compress/lzw is the biggest offender, and switching to MOVB has no observable performance penalty.

The debian/kFreeBSD project uses the FreeBSD kernel and the debian userspace. From our point of view, this is freebsd not linux as GOOS talks about the kernel syscall interface, not the userspace (although cgo alters that). As debian/kFreeBSD is experimental at this time, I do not think it is worth the effort of duplicating all the freebsd specific code so this is proposal represents a reasonable workaround.
Currently cgo is not supported, make.bash will detect this and disable cgo automatically during the build.

In order to add these, we need to be able to find references
to such types that already exist in the binary. To do that, introduce
a new linker section holding a list of the types corresponding to
arrays, chans, maps, and slices.
To offset the storage cost of this list, and to simplify the code,
remove the interface{} header from the representation of a
runtime type. It was used in early versions of the code but was
made obsolete by the kind field: a switch on kind is more efficient
than a type switch.
In the godoc binary, removing the interface{} header cuts two
words from each of about 10,000 types. Adding back the list of pointers
to array, chan, map, and slice types reintroduces one word for
each of about 500 types. On a 64-bit machine, then, this CL *removes*
a net 156 kB of read-only data from the binary.
This CL does not include the needed support for precise garbage
collection. I have created issue 4375 to track that.
This CL also does not set the 'algorithm' - specifically the equality
and copy functions - for a new array correctly, so I have unexported
ArrayOf for now. That is also part of issue 4375.

This patch introduces a sort of pre-regopt peephole optimization.
When a temporary is introduced that just holds a value for the

elide it to make the job of regopt easier.
Since x86 has very few registers, this situation happens very
often. The result is large savings in stack variables for
arithmetic-heavy functions.

Avoids problems with local declarations shadowing other names.
We write a more explicit form than the incoming program, so there

int := "hello"

var int string = "hello"
var j int = 2
but the int variable shadows the int type in the second line.

It happens that blocks are used for function calls in a
quite low-level way so they cannot be instrumented as
usual.
Blocks are also used for inlined functions.

Compiling expressions like:
s[s[s[s[s[s[s[s[s[s[s[s[i]]]]]]]]]]]]
make 5g and 6g run out of registers. Such expressions can arise
if a slice is used to represent a permutation and the user wants
to iterate it.
This is due to the usual problem of allocating registers before
going down the expression tree, instead of allocating them in a
postfix way.
The functions cgenr and agenr (that generate a value to a newly
allocated register instead of an existing location), are either
introduced or modified when they already existed to allocate
the new register as late as possible, and sudoaddable is disabled
for OINDEX nodes so that igen/agenr is used instead.
Update #4207.

This is an experiment in static analysis of Go programs
to understand which struct fields a program might use.
It is not part of the Go language specification, it must
be enabled explicitly when building the toolchain,
and it may be removed at any time.
After building the toolchain with GOEXPERIMENT=fieldtrack,
a specific field can be marked for tracking by including
`go:"track"` in the field tag:
package pkg
type T struct {
F int `go:"track"`
G int // untracked
}
To simplify usage, only named struct types can have
tracked fields, and only exported fields can be tracked.
The implementation works by making each function begin
with a sequence of no-op USEFIELD instructions declaring
which tracked fields are accessed by a specific function.
After the linker's dead code elimination removes unused
functions, the fields referred to by the remaining
USEFIELD instructions are the ones reported as used by
the binary.
The -k option to the linker specifies the fully qualified
symbol name (such as my/pkg.list) of a string variable that
should be initialized with the field tracking information
for the program. The field tracking string is a sequence
of lines, each terminated by a \n and describing a single
tracked field referred to by the program. Each line is made
up of one or more tab-separated fields. The first field is
the name of the tracked field, fully qualified, as in
"my/pkg.T.F". Subsequent fields give a shortest path of
reverse references from that field to a global variable or
function, corresponding to one way in which the program
might reach that field.
A common source of false positives in field tracking is
types with large method sets, because a reference to the
type descriptor carries with it references to all methods.
To address this problem, the CL also introduces a comment
annotation
//go:nointerface
that marks an upcoming method declaration as unavailable
for use in satisfying interfaces, both statically and
dynamically. Such a method is also invisible to package
reflect.
Again, all of this is disabled by default. It only turns on
if you have GOEXPERIMENT=fieldtrack set during make.bash.
