[]byte("string") was simplifying to
[]byte{0: 0x73, 1: 0x74, 2: 0x72, 3: 0x69, 4: 0x6e, 5: 0x67},
but that latter form takes up much more memory in the compiler.
Preserve the string form and recognize it to turn global variables
initialized this way into linker-initialized data.
Reduces the compiler memory footprint for a large []byte initialized
this way from approximately 10 kB/B to under 100 B/B.

This change fixes a serious performance regression
with reflect.Value growing to 4 words instead of 3.
The json benchmark was ~50% slower, with this change
it is ~5% slower (and the binary is 0.5% larger).
Longer term, we probably need to rethink our copy
generation. Using REP is really expensive time-wise.

Rather than add code to libmach or reengineer liblink to

This reimplementation uses the standard symbol table for

There is an enormous amount of code moving around in this CL,
but the code is the same, and it is invoked in the same ways.
This CL is preparation for the new linker structure, not the new
structure itself.
The new library's definition is in include/link.h.
The main change is the use of a Link structure to hold all the
linker-relevant state, replacing the smattering of global variables.
The Link structure should both make it clearer which state must
be carried around and make it possible to parallelize more easily
later.
The main body of the linker has moved into the architecture-independent
cmd/ld directory. That includes the list of known header types, so the
distinction between Hplan9x32 and Hplan9x64 is removed (no other
header type distinguished 32- and 64-bit formats), and code for unused
formats such as ipaq kernels has been deleted.
The code being deleted from 5l, 6l, and 8l reappears in liblink or in ld.
Because multiple files are being merged in the liblink directory,
it is not possible to show the diffs nicely in hg.
The Prog and Addr structures have been unified into an
architecture-independent form and moved to link.h, where they will
be shared by all tools: the assemblers, the compilers, and the linkers.
The unification makes it possible to write architecture-independent
traversal of Prog lists, among other benefits.
The Sym structures cannot be unified: they are too fundamentally
different between the linker and the compilers. Instead, liblink defines
an LSym - a linker Sym - to be used in the Prog and Addr structures,
and the linker now refers exclusively to LSyms. The compilers will
keep using their own syms but will fill out the corresponding LSyms in
the Prog and Addr structures.
Although code from 5l, 6l, and 8l is now in a single library, the
code has been arranged so that only one architecture needs to
be linked into a particular program: 5l will not contain the code
needed for x86 instruction layout, for example.
The object file writing code in liblink/obj.c is from cmd/gc/obj.c.

In addition to adding the library, change the way the anames array is created.
Previously, it was written to src/cmd/6l/enam.c (and similarly for 5l and 8l)
and each of the other tools (6g, 6c, 6a) compiled the 6l/enam.c file in addition
to their own sources.
Now that there is a library shared by all these programs, move the anames
array into that library. To eliminate name conflicts, name the array after
the architecture letter: anames5, anames6, anames8.
First step to linker cleanup (golang.org/s/go13linker).

This change allows the garbage collector to examine stack
slots that are determined as live and containing a pointer

reduction of 65% in the number of stack slots scanned during
an invocation of "GOGC=1 all.bash".
Unfortunately, this does not yet allow garbage collection to
be precise for the stack slots computed as live. Pointers
confound the determination of what definitions reach a given
instruction. In general, this problem is not solvable without
runtime cost but some advanced cooperation from the compiler
might mitigate common cases.

We allocate a chunk of zero memory to return a pointer to when a
map access doesn't find the key. This is simpler than returning nil
and fixing things up in the caller. Linker magic allocates a single
zero memory area that is shared by all (non-reflect-generated) map
types.
Passing things by reference gets rid of some copies, so it speeds
up code with big keys/values.

Clang does not record the "size" field for pointer types,
so we must insert the size ourselves. We were already
doing this, but only for the case of pointer types.
For an array of pointer types, the setting of the size for
the nested pointer type was happening after the computation
of the size of the array type, meaning that the array type
was always computed as 0 bytes. Delay the size computation.
This bug happens on all Clang systems, not just FreeBSD.
Our test checked that cgo wrote something, not that it was correct.
FreeBSD's default clang rejects array[0] as a C struct field,
so it noticed the incorrect sizes. But the sizes were incorrect
everywhere.

Two bugs:
1. The first iteration of the traceback always uses LR when provided,
which it is (only) during a profiling signal, but in fact LR is correct
only if the stack frame has not been allocated yet. Otherwise an
intervening call may have changed LR, and the saved copy in the stack
frame should be used. Fix in traceback_arm.c.
2. The division runtime call adds 8 bytes to the stack. In order to
keep the traceback routines happy, it must copy the saved LR into
the new 0(SP). Change
SUB $8, SP
into
MOVW 0(SP), R11 // r11 is temporary, for use by linker
MOVW.W R11, -8(SP)

sees a saved LR at 0(SP).

The CL causes misc/cgo/test to fail randomly.
I suspect that the problem is the use of a division instruction
in usleep, which can be called while trying to acquire an m

The solution to that would be to rewrite the code to use a
magic multiply instead of a divide, but now we're getting
pretty far off the original code.
Go back to the original in preparation for a different,
less efficient but simpler fix.
««« original CL description
cmd/5l, runtime: make ARM integer division profiler-friendly
The implementation of division constructed non-standard
stack frames that could not be handled by the traceback
routines.
CL 13239052 left the frames non-standard but fixed them
for the specific case of a divide-by-zero panic.
A profiling signal can arrive at any time, so that fix
is not sufficient.
Change the division to store the extra argument in the M struct
instead of in a new stack slot. That keeps the frames bog standard
at all times.
Also fix a related bug in the traceback code: when starting
a traceback, the LR register should be ignored if the current
function has already allocated its stack frame and saved the
original LR on the stack. The stack copy should be used, as the
LR register may have been modified.

This flag was added in January 2010, in CL 181102, to fix issue 497.
(Numbers were just shorter back then.) The fix was for OS X machines
and the llvm-gcc frontend.
In July 2011 we had to change the way we get enum values, because
there were no flags available to force Xcode's llvm-gcc to include the
enum names and values in DWARF debug output.
We now use clang, not llvm-gcc, on OS X machines.
Earlier versions of clang printed a warning about not knowing the flag.
Newer versions of clang now make that an error.
That is:
- The flag was added for OS X machines.
- The flag is no longer necessary on OS X machines.
- The flag now breaks some OS X machines.
Remove it.

The old approach to determining whether "name" was a type, constant,
or expression was to compile the C program
name;
and scan the errors and warnings generated by the compiler.
This requires looking for specific substrings in the errors and warnings,
which ties the implementation to specific compiler versions.
As compilers change their errors or drop warnings, cgo breaks.
This happens slowly but it does happen.
Clang in particular (now required on OS X) has a significant churn rate.
The new approach compiles a slightly more complex program
that is either valid C or not valid C depending on what kind of
thing "name" is. It uses only the presence or absence of an error
message on a particular line, not the error text itself. The program is:
// error if and only if name is undeclared
void f1(void) { typeof(name) *x; }
// error if and only if name is not a type
void f2(void) { name *x; }
// error if and only if name is not an integer constant
void f3(void) { enum { x = (name)*1 }; }
I had not been planning to do this until Go 1.3, because it is a
non-trivial change, but it fixes a real Xcode 5 problem in Go 1.2,

Bug #1:
Issue 5406 identified an interesting case:
defer iface.M()
may end up calling a wrapper that copies an indirect receiver
from the iface value and then calls the real M method. That's
two calls down, not just one, and so recover() == nil always
in the real M method, even during a panic.
[For the purposes of this entire discussion, a wrapper's
implementation is a function containing an ordinary call, not
the optimized tail call form that is somtimes possible. The
tail call does not create a second frame, so it is already
handled correctly.]
Fix this bug by introducing g->panicwrap, which counts the
number of bytes on current stack segment that are due to
wrapper calls that should not count against the recover
check. All wrapper functions must now adjust g->panicwrap up
on entry and back down on exit. This adds slightly to their
expense; on the x86 it is a single instruction at entry and
exit; on the ARM it is three. However, the alternative is to
make a call to recover depend on being able to walk the stack,
which I very much want to avoid. We have enough problems
walking the stack for garbage collection and profiling.
Also, if performance is critical in a specific case, it is already
faster to use a pointer receiver and avoid this kind of wrapper
entirely.
Bug #2:
The old code, which did not consider the possibility of two
calls, already contained a check to see if the call had split
its stack and so the panic-created segment was one behind the
current segment. In the wrapper case, both of the two calls
might split their stacks, so the panic-created segment can be
two behind the current segment.
Fix this by propagating the Stktop.panic flag forward during
stack splits instead of looking backward during recover.
Fixes#5406.

The entry for LEAL/LEAQ in these optabs was listed as having
two data bytes in the y array. In fact they had and expect no data
bytes. However, the general loop expects to be able to look at at
least one data byte, to make sure it is not 0x0f. So give them each
a single data byte set to 0 (not 0x0f).
Since the MOV instructions have the largest optab cases, this
requires growing the size of the data array.
Clang found this bug because the general o->op[z] == 0x0f
test was using z == 22, which was out of bounds.
In practice the next byte in memory was probably not 0x0f
so it wasn't truly broken. But might as well be clean.

This CL is an aggregate of 10271047, 10499043, 9733044. Descriptions of each follow:
10499043
runtime,cmd/ld: Merge TLS symbols and teach 5l about ARM TLS
This CL prepares for external linking support to ARM.
The pseudo-symbols runtime.g and runtime.m are merged into a single
runtime.tlsgm symbol. When external linking, the offset of a thread local
variable is stored at a memory location instead of being embedded into a offset
of a ldr instruction. With a single runtime.tlsgm symbol for both g and m, only
one such offset is needed.
The larger part of this CL moves TLS code from gcc compiled to internally
compiled. The TLS code now uses the modern MRC instruction, and 5l is taught
about TLS fallbacks in case the instruction is not available or appropriate.
10271047
This CL adds support for -linkmode external to 5l.
For 5l itself, use addrel to allow for D_CALL relocations to be handled by the
host linker. Of the cases listed in rsc's comment in issue 4069, only case 5 and
63 needed an update. One of the TODO: addrel cases was since replaced, and the
rest of the cases are either covered by indirection through addpool (cases with
LTO or LFROM flags) or stubs (case 74). The addpool cases are covered because
addpool emits AWORD instructions, which in turn are handled by case 11.
In the runtime, change the argv argument in the rt0* functions slightly to be a
pointer to the argv list, instead of relying on a particular location of argv.
9733044
The -shared flag to 6l outputs a shared library, implemented in Go
and callable from non-Go programs such as C.
The main part of this CL change the thread local storage model.
Go uses the fastest and least general mode, local exec. TLS data in shared
libraries normally requires at least the local dynamic mode, however, this CL
instead opts for using the initial exec mode. Initial exec mode is faster than
local dynamic mode and can be used in linux since the linker has reserved a
limited amount of TLS space for performance sensitive TLS code.
Initial exec mode requires an extra load from the GOT table to determine the
TLS offset. This penalty will not be paid if ld is not in -shared mode, since
TLS accesses will be reduced to local exec.
The elf sections .init_array and .rela.init_array are added to register the Go
runtime entry with cgo at library load time.
The "hidden" attribute is added to Cgo functions called from Go, since Go
does not generate call through the GOT table, and adding non-GOT relocations for
a global function is not supported by gcc. Cgo symbols don't need to be global
and avoiding the GOT table is also faster.
The changes to 8l are only removes code relevant to the old -shared mode where
internal linking was used.
This CL only address the low level linker work. It can be submitted by itself,

The compilers assume they can generate temporary variables
as needed to preserve the right semantics or simplify code
generation and the back end will still generate good code.
This turns out not to be true. The back ends will only
track the first 128 variables per function and give up
on the remainder. That needs to be fixed too, in a later CL.
This CL merges temporary variables with equal types and
non-overlapping lifetimes using the greedy algorithm in
Poletto and Sarkar, "Linear Scan Register Allocation",

Add new proginfo function that returns information about a
Prog*. The information includes various instruction
description bits as well as a list of required registers set
and used and indexing registers used.
Convert the large instruction switches to use proginfo.
This information was formerly duplicated in multiple
optimization passes, inconsistently. For example, the
information about which registers an instruction requires
appeared three times for most instructions.
Most of the switches were incomplete or incorrect in some way.
For example, the switch in copyu did not list cases for INCB,
JPS, MOVAPD, MOVBWSX, MOVBWZX, PCDATA, POPQ, PUSHQ, STD,
TESTB, TESTQ, and XCHGL. Those were all falling into the
"unknown instruction" default case and stopping the rewrite,
perhaps unnecessarily. Similarly, the switch in needc only
listed a handful of the instructions that use or set the carry bit.
We still need to decide whether to use proginfo to generalize
a few of the remaining smaller switches in peep.c.
If this goes well, we'll make similar changes in 8g and 5g.

On entry to a function, zero the results and zero the pointer
section of the local variables.
This is an intermediate step on the way to precise collection
of Go frames.
This can incur a significant (up to 30%) slowdown, but it also ensures
that the garbage collector never looks at a word in a Go frame
and sees a stale pointer value that could cause a space leak.
(C frames and assembly frames are still possibly problematic.)
This CL is required to start making collection of interface values
as precise as collection of pointer values are today.
Since we have to dereference the interface type to understand
whether the value is a pointer, it is critical that the type field be
initialized.
A future CL by Carl will make the garbage collection pointer
bitmaps context-sensitive. At that point it will be possible to
remove most of the zeroing. The only values that will still need
zeroing are values whose addresses escape the block scoping
of the function but do not escape to the heap.

Prior to this change, pointer maps encoded the disposition of
a word using a single bit. A zero signaled a non-pointer
value and a one signaled a pointer value. Interface values,
which are a effectively a union type, were conservatively
labeled as a pointer.
This change widens the logical element size of the pointer map
to two bits per word. As before, zero signals a non-pointer
value and one signals a pointer value. Additionally, a two
signals an iface pointer and a three signals an eface pointer.
Following other changes to the runtime, values two and three
will allow a type information to drive interpretation of the
subsequent word so only those interface values containing a
pointer value will be scanned.

If we start doing bitmap coalescing we'll need to figure out

The problem is that the cdecl() function in cmd/cgo/godefs.go isn't
properly translating the Go array type to a C array type when an
asterisk follows the [] in the array type declaration (it is perfectly
legal to put the asterisk on either side of the [] in go syntax,
depending on how you set up your pointers).
That said, the cdefs tool is only designed to translate from Go types
generated using the cgo *godefs* tool -- where the godefs tool is
designed to translate gcc-style C types into Go types. In essence, the
cdefs tool translates from gcc-style C types to Go types (via the godefs
tool), then back to kenc-style C types. Because of this, cdefs does not
need to know how to translate arbitraty Go types into C, just the ones
produced by godefs.
The problem is that during this translation process, the logic is
slightly wrong when going from (e.g.):
char *array[10];
to:
array [10]*int8;
back to:
int8 *array[10];
In the current implementation of cdecl(), the translation from the Go
type declaration back to the kenc-style declaration looks for Go
types of the form:
name *[]type;
rather than the actual generated Go type declaration of:
name []*type;
Both are valid Go syntax, with slightly different semantics, but the
latter is the only one that can ever be generated by the godefs tools.
(The semantics of the former are not directly expressible in a
single C statement -- you would have to have to first typedef the array
type, then declare a pointer to that typedef'd type in a separate
statement).
This commit changes the logic of cdecl() to look properly for, and
translate, Go type declarations of the form:
name []*type;
Additionally, the original implementation only allowed for a single
asterisk and a single sized aray (i.e. only a single level of pointer
indirection, and only one set of []) on the type, whereas the patched
version allows for an arbitrary number of both.
Tests are included in misc/cgo/testcdefs and the all.bash script has been
updated to account for these.

the runtime editing registers to make the call start with a caller PC
returning to a
CALL deferreturn
instruction.
That instruction has always had the line number of the function's
closing brace, but that instruction's line number is irrelevant.
Stack traces show the line number of the instruction before the
return PC, because normally that's what started the call. Not so here.
The instruction before the CALL deferreturn could be almost anywhere
in the function; it's unrelated and its line number is incorrect to show.
Fix the line number by inserting a true hardware no-op with the right
line number before the returned-to CALL instruction. That is, the deferred
calls now appear to start with a caller PC returning to the second instruction
in this sequence:
NOP
CALL deferreturn
The traceback will show the line number of the NOP, which we've set
to be the line number of the function's closing brace.
The NOP here is not the usual pseudo-instruction, which would be
elided by the linker. Instead it is the real hardware instruction:
XCHG AX, AX on 386 and amd64, and AND.EQ R0, R0, R0 on ARM.

If the stack frame size is larger than the known-unmapped region at the
bottom of the address space, then the stack split prologue cannot use the usual
condition:
SP - size >= stackguard
because SP - size may wrap around to a very large number.
Instead, if the stack frame is large, the prologue tests:
SP - stackguard >= size
(This ends up being a few instructions more expensive, so we don't do it always.)
Preemption requests register by setting stackguard to a very large value, so
that the first test (SP - size >= stackguard) cannot possibly succeed.
Unfortunately, that same very large value causes a wraparound in the
second test (SP - stackguard >= size), making it succeed incorrectly.
To avoid *that* wraparound, we have to amend the test:
stackguard != StackPreempt && SP - stackguard >= size
This test is only used for functions with large frames, which essentially
always split the stack, so the cost of the few instructions is noise.
This CL and CL 11085043 together fix the known issues with preemption,
at the beginning of a function, so we will be able to try turning it on again.

Merging a couple of CLs into one, since they collided in my client
and I'm lazy.
1) Fix up output in "go test -cover" case.
We need to tell the testing package the name of the package being tested
and the name of the package being covered. It can then sort out the report.
2) Filter out the _test.go files from coverage processing. We want to measure
what the tests cover, not what's covered in the tests,
The coverage for encoding/gob goes from 82.2% to 88.4%.
There may be a cleaner way to do this - suggestions welcome - but ça suffit.

Until now, the goroutine state has been scattered during the
execution of newstack and oldstack. It's all there, and those routines
know how to get back to a working goroutine, but other pieces of
the system, like stack traces, do not. If something does interrupt
the newstack or oldstack execution, the rest of the system can't
understand the goroutine. For example, if newstack decides there
is an overflow and calls throw, the stack tracer wouldn't dump the
goroutine correctly.
For newstack to save a useful state snapshot, it needs to be able
to rewind the PC in the function that triggered the split back to
the beginning of the function. (The PC is a few instructions in, just
after the call to morestack.) To make that possible, we change the
prologues to insert a jmp back to the beginning of the function
after the call to morestack. That is, the prologue used to be roughly:
TEXT myfunc
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
Now an extra instruction is inserted after the call:
TEXT myfunc
start:
check for split
jmpcond nosplit
call morestack
jmp start
nosplit:
sub $xxx, sp
The jmp is not executed directly. It is decoded and simulated by
runtime.rewindmorestack to discover the beginning of the function,
and then the call to morestack returns directly to the start label
instead of to the jump instruction. So logically the jmp is still
executed, just not by the cpu.
The prologue thus repeats in the case of a function that needs a
stack split, but against the cost of the split itself, the extra few
instructions are noise. The repeated prologue has the nice effect of
making a stack split double-check that the new stack is big enough:
if morestack happens to return on a too-small stack, we'll now notice
before corruption happens.
The ability for newstack to rewind to the beginning of the function
should help preemption too. If newstack decides that it was called
for preemption instead of a stack split, it now has the goroutine state
correctly paused if rescheduling is needed, and when the goroutine
can run again, it can return to the start label on its original stack
and re-execute the split check.
Here is an example of a split stack overflow showing the full
trace, without any special cases in the stack printer.
(This one was triggered by making the split check incorrect.)

Functions without bodies were excluded from the ordering logic,
because when I wrote the ordering logic there was no reason to
analyze them.
But then we added //go:noescape tags that need analysis, and we
didn't update the ordering logic.

occurs after functions have been compiled. Compiling a

Manual undo due to later changes in doc/go1.1.html; cmd/go/test.bash still passes.
Rationale, from CL 8119049 review log:
This makes the 'go run' command different from every other command.
For example, 'go test' does not mean 'go test *.go'.
If we were going to handle the no arguments case in 'go run', I would hope that
it would scan the current directory to find a package just like 'go build' or
'go test' would, and then it would require that package to be 'package main',
and then it would run that package. This would make it match 'go test' and 'go
build' and 'go install' and so on. It would mean that if you are working on a
command in a directory that is 'go install'able, then 'go run' will run the
binary for you. The current CL does not accomplish that when build constraints
or file name constraints are involved.
For example, if I am working on a program like:
$ ls
main.go
main_386.s
main_arm.s
main_amd64.s
$
Then 'go run' will fail here because the .s files are ignored.
If instead I am working on a program like:
$ ls
main.go
main_386.go
main_arm.go
main_amd64.go
$
then 'go run' will fail because too many files are included.
I would like to see this command implemented so that it is compatible with the
other go subcommands. Since it is too late to do that for Go 1.1, I would like
to see this CL reverted, to preserve the option to do it better later.

I would like opinions on whether this is a good idea for 1.1.
On the one hand it's a moderately important issue. On the

external linker errors due to the additional relocations and
it may be better to wait.
I'm fairly confident that the behaviour is unchanged when not

to the host linker.
The go command will allow LDFLAGS for cgo to be passed

The compilers used to generate only one 'm' symbol
to record the stack frame size for each function.
In cmd/nm, the 'm' and 'f' symbols are handled in
the same switch case with a special exception for
the symbol described above called ".frame".
Now that the compilers emit additional 'm' symbols
for precise garbage collection of the stack, the
current logic is incorrect. cmd/nm will attempt to
interpret these new 'm' symbols as 'f' symbols and
add them to the file name index table.
This fails with an out-of-memory condition when
