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.

Language clarification.
The existing rules for selector expressions imply
automatic dereferencing of pointers to struct fields.
They also implied automatic dereferencing of selectors
denoting methods. In almost all cases, such automatic
dereferencing does indeed take place for methods but the
reason is not the selector rules but the fact that method
sets include both methods with T and *T receivers; so for
a *T actual receiver, a method expecting a formal T
receiver, also accepts a *T (and the invocation or method
value expression is the reason for the auto-derefering).
However, the rules as stated so far implied that even in
case of a variable p of named pointer type P, a selector
expression p.f would always be shorthand for (*p).f. This
is true for field selectors f, but cannot be true for
method selectors since a named pointer type always has an
empty method set.
Named pointer types may never appear as anonymous field
types (and method receivers, for that matter), so this
only applies to variables declared of a named pointer
type. This is exceedingly rare and perhaps shouldn't be
permitted in the first place (but we cannot change that).
Amended the selector rules to make auto-deref of values
of named pointer types an exception to the general rules
and added corresponding examples with explanations.
Both gc and gccgo have a bug where they do auto-deref
pointers of named types in method selectors where they
should not:

Several inaccuracies were fixed:
1) A variable declaration may declare more than just one
variable.
2) Variable initialization follows the rules of assignments,
including n:1 assignments. The existing wording implied a 1:1
or n:n rule and generally was somewhat unspecific.
3) The rules for variable declarations with no types and
untyped initialization expressions had minor holes (issue 8088).
4) Clarified the special cases of assignments of untyped values
(we don't just have untyped constants, but also untyped bools,
e.g. from comparisons). The new wording is more direct.
To that end, introduced the notion of an untyped constant's

repeatedly introduced.

The existing spec rules on package initialization were
contradictory: They specified that 1) dependent variables
are initialized in dependency order, and 2) independent
variables are initialized in declaration order. This 2nd
rule cannot be satisfied in general. For instance, for
var (
c = b + 2
a = 0
b = 1
)
because of its dependency on b, c must be initialized after b,
leading to the partial order b, c. Because a is independent of
b but is declared before b, we end up with the order: a, b, c.
But a is also independent of c and is declared after c, so the
order b, c, a should also be valid in contradiction to a, b, c.
The new rules are given in form of an algorithm which outlines
initialization order explicitly.
gccgo and go/types already follow these rules.

This CL removes the special syntax for method receivers and
makes it just like other parameters. Instead, the crucial
receiver-specific rules (exactly one receiver, receiver type
must be of the form T or *T) are specified verbally instead
of syntactically.
This is a fully backward-compatible (and minor) syntax
relaxation. As a result, the following syntactic restrictions
(which are completely irrelevant) and which were only in place
for receivers are removed:
a) receiver types cannot be parenthesized
b) receiver parameter lists cannot have a trailing comma
The result of this CL is a simplication of the spec and the
implementation, with no impact on existing (or future) code.
Noteworthy:
- gc already permits a trailing comma at the end of a receiver
declaration:
func (recv T,) m() {}
This is technically a bug with the current spec; this CL will
legalize this notation.
- gccgo produces a misleading error when a trailing comma is used:
error: method has multiple receivers
(even though there's only one receiver)
- Compilers and type-checkers won't need to report errors anymore
if receiver types are parenthesized.

The spec was unclear about whether blank methods should be
permitted in interface types. gccgo permits at most one, gc
crashes if there are more than one, go/types permits at most
one.
Discussion:
Since method sets of non-interface types never contain methods
with blank names (blank methods are never declared), it is impossible
to satisfy an interface with a blank method.
It is possible to declare variables of assignable interface types
(but not necessarily identical types) containing blank methods, and
assign those variables to each other, but the values of those
variables can only be nil.
There appear to be two "reasonable" alternatives:
1) Permit at most one blank method (since method names must be unique),
and consider it part of the interface. This is what appears to happen
now, with corner-case bugs. Such interfaces can never be implemented.
2) Permit arbitrary many blank methods but ignore them. This appears
to be closer to the handling of blank identifiers in declarations.
However, an interface type literal is not a declaration (it's a type
literal). Also, for struct types, blank identifiers are not ignored;
so the analogy with declarations is flawed.
Both these alternatives don't seem to add any benefit and are likely
(if only slightly) more complicated to explain and implement than
disallowing blank methods in interfaces altogether.

The spec did not specify the order in which
init() functions are called. Specify that
they are called in source order since we have
now also specified the initialization order
of independent variables.
While technically a language change, no
existing code could have relied on this,
so this should not break anything.

- split description of package initialization and
program execution
- better grouping of concerns in section on package
initialization
- more explicit definition of what constitues a
dependency
- removed language about constant dependencies -
they are computed at compile-time and not
initialized at run-time
- clarified that independent variables are initialized
in declaration order (rather than reference order)
Note that the last clarification is what distinguishes
gc and gccgo at the moment: gc uses reference order
(i.e., order in which variables are referenced in
initialization expressions), while gccgo uses declaration
order for independent variables.
Not a language change. But adopting this CL will
clarify what constitutes a dependency.

The move from 4kB to 8kB in Go 1.2 was to eliminate many stack split hot spots.
The move back to 4kB was predicated on copying stacks eliminating
the potential for hot spots.
Unfortunately, the fact that stacks do not copy 100% of the time means
that hot spots can still happen under the right conditions, and the slowdown
is worse now than it was in Go 1.2. There is a real program in issue 8030 that
sees about a 30x slowdown: it has a reflect call near the top of the stack
which inhibits any stack copying on that segment.
Go back to 8kB until stack copying can be used 100% of the time.

This has typically crashed in the past, although usually with
an 'all goroutines are asleep - deadlock!' message that shows
no goroutines (because there aren't any).
Previous discussion at:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/golang-nuts/uCT_7WxxopQ/BoSBlLFzUTkJhttps://groups.google.com/d/msg/golang-dev/KUojayEr20I/u4fp_Ej5PdUJhttp://golang.org/issue/7711
There is general agreement that runtime.Goexit terminates the
main goroutine, so that main cannot return, so the program does
not exit.
The interpretation that all other goroutines exiting causes an
exit(0) is relatively new and was not part of those discussions.
That is what this CL changes.
Thankfully, even though the exit(0) has been there for a while,
some other accounting bugs made it very difficult to trigger,
so it is reasonable to replace. In particular, see golang.org/issue/7711#c10
for an examination of the behavior across past releases.

If we compile a generated file stored in a temporary
directory - let's say /tmp/12345/work/x.c - then by default
6c stores the full path and then the pcln table in the
final binary includes the full path. This makes repeated builds
(using different temporary directories) produce different
binaries, even if the inputs are the same.
In the old 'go tool pack', the P flag specified a prefix to remove
from all stored paths (if present), and cmd/go invoked
'go tool pack grcP $WORK' to remove references to the
temporary work directory.
We've changed the build to avoid pack as much as possible,
under the theory that instead of making pack convert from
.6 to .a, the tools should just write the .a directly and save a
round of I/O.
Instead of going back to invoking pack always, define a common
flag -trimpath in the assemblers, C compilers, and Go compilers,
implemented in liblink, and arrange for cmd/go to use the flag.
Then the object files being written out have the shortened paths
from the start.
While we are here, reimplement pcln support for GOROOT_FINAL.
A build in /tmp/go uses GOROOT=/tmp/go, but if GOROOT_FINAL=/usr/local/go
is set, then a source file named /tmp/go/x.go is recorded instead as
/usr/local/go/x.go. We use this so that we can prepare distributions
to be installed in /usr/local/go without actually working in that
directory. The conversion to liblink deleted all the old file name
handling code, including the GOROOT_FINAL translation.
Bring the GOROOT_FINAL translation back.
Before this CL, using GOROOT_FINAL=/goroot make.bash:
g% strings $(which go) | grep -c $TMPDIR
6
g% strings $(which go) | grep -c $GOROOT
793
g%
After this CL:
g% strings $(which go) | grep -c $TMPDIR
0
g% strings $(which go) | grep -c $GOROOT
0
g%
(The references to $TMPDIR tend to be cgo-generated source files.)
Adding the -trimpath flag to the assemblers required converting
them to the new Go-semantics flag parser. The text in go1.3.html
is copied and adjusted from go1.1.html, which is when we applied
that conversion to the compilers and linkers.

crypto/tls has two functions for creating a client connection: Dial,
which most users are expected to use, and Client, which is the
lower-level API.
Dial does what you expect: it gives you a secure connection to the host
that you specify and the majority of users of crypto/tls appear to work
fine with it.
Client gives more control but needs more care. Specifically, if it
wasn't given a server name in the tls.Config then it didn't check that
the server's certificates match any hostname - because it doesn't have
one to check against. It was assumed that users of the low-level API
call VerifyHostname on the certificate themselves if they didn't supply
a hostname.
A review of the uses of Client both within Google and in a couple of
external libraries has shown that nearly all of them got this wrong.
Thus, this change enforces that either a ServerName or
InsecureSkipVerify is given. This does not affect tls.Dial.
