Linux's execve has (at the time of writing, and since v2.6.30) a bug when it ran
concurrently with clone, in that it would fail to set up some datastructures if
the thread count before and after some steps differed. This is described better
and in more detail by Colin King in Launchpad¹ and kernel² bugs. When a program
written in Go runtime.Exec's a setuid binary, this issue may cause the resulting
process to not have the expected uid. This patch works around the issue by using
a mutex to serialize exec and clone.

This certainly won't get inlined right now, but in the spirit of
making this more robust, we have to disable inlining because inlining
would defeat the purpose of separating forkAndExecInChild1 into a
separate function.

Currently, CLONE_VFORK is used without much regard to the stack. This
is dangerous, because anything the child does to the stack is visible
to the parent. For example, if the compiler were to reuse named stack
slots (which it currently doesn't do), it would be easy for the child
running in the same stack frame as the parent to corrupt local
variables that the parent then depended on. We're not sure of anything
specific going wrong in this code right now, but it is at best a
ticking time bomb.
CLONE_VFORK can only safely be used if we ensure the child does not
execute in any of the active stack frames of the parent. This commit
implements this by arranging for the parent to return immediately from
the frame the child will operate in, and for the child to never return
to the frame the parent will operate in.
Fixes#20732.

If you have BenchmarkX1 with sub-benchmark Y
and you have BenchmarkX2 with no sub-benchmarks,
then
go test -bench=X/Y
runs BenchmarkX1 once with b.N=1 (to find out about Y)
and then not again, because it has sub-benchmarks,
but arguably also because we're interested in Y.
In contrast, it runs BenchmarkX2 in full, even though clearly
that is not relevant to the match X/Y. We do have to run X2
once with b.N=1 to probe for having X2/Y, but we should not
run it with larger b.N.

This doesn't change the existing restriction with disallows
spaces in import paths (as found in an import declaration).
It simply permits packages to be under a directory name that
may contain spaces.
Verified manually that it works. This could use a test, but the
change is trivial. We also can't use the existing test framework
(under test/) because the way those tests are run with test/run.go,
the mechanims for compiling a directory, even if it contains blanks
it its name, does't produce compiler paths with blanks
(the compilation is local).

being that the tests loop for ever if the decoders actually return an
error. This commit fixes the issue by terminating the loops if an error
occurs and failing the tests with a suitable error message.

However, if an image has been cropped vertically, trimming from the

In some cases the netpoll code can cause a spurious wakeup. This is
normally harmless, as the woken up code simply retries the operation.
However, for connect, the test we were using to see whether the
connect had succeeded (setsockopt(SO_ERROR)) was not reliable in the
case of a spurious wakeup. Change to using a reliable test (getpeername).
On Darwin we used a different technique: a second call to connect;
change Darwin to use getpeername as well.
Return the result of getpeername to avoid having to call it twice.

First, this is only working for "go1", so it could be confusing.
Second, "If no such version exists it retrieves the most recent

rather than most recent version.

Some of the _test.go files in the encoding packages contain a private
function called testEqual that calls testing.Errorf if the arguments
passed to it are unequal. The line numbers output by such calls to
Errorf identify the failure as being in testEqual itself which is not
very useful. This commit fixes the problem by adding a call to the
new t.Helper method in each of the testEqual functions. The line
numbers output when errors do occur now identify the real source of
the error.

The existing code used Type.String() to obtain the name of a type;
specifically type reflect.Method in this case. However, Type.String()
formatting is intended for error messages and uses the format
pkgpath.name instead of pkgname.name if a package (in this case
package reflect) is imported multiple times. As a result, the
reflect.Method type detection failed under peculiar circumstances
(see the included test case).
Thanks to https://github.com/ericlagergren for tracking down
an easy way to make the bug disappear (which in turn directly
led to the underlying cause).
