The assumption can be violated by external linkers reordering them or
inserting non-Go sections in between them. I looked briefly at trying
to write out the _go_.o in external linking mode in a way that forced
the ordering, but no matter what there's no way to force Go's data
and Go's bss to be next to each other. If there is any data or bss from
non-Go objects, it's very likely to get stuck in between them.
Instead, rewrite the two places we know about that make the assumption.
I grepped for noptrdata to look for more and didn't find any.
The added race test (os/exec in external linking mode) fails without
the changes in the runtime. It crashes with an invalid pointer dereference.
Fixes#9133.

struct siginfo_t's si_addr field is part of a union.
Previously, we represented this union in Go using an opaque
byte array and accessed the si_addr field using unsafe (and
wrong on 386 and arm!) pointer arithmetic. Since si_addr is
the only field we use from this union, this replaces the
opaque byte array with an explicit declaration of the si_addr
field and accesses it directly.

Previously, this used the top 8 bits of an instruction as a
sort-of opcode and ignored the top two bits of the relative
PC. This worked because these jumps are always negative and
never big enough for the top two bits of the relative PC (also
the bottom 2 bits of the sort-of opcode) to be anything other
than 0b11, but the code is confusing because it doesn't match
the actual structure of the instruction.
Instead, use the real 6 bit opcode and use all 24 bits of
relative PC.

Previously, lfstack assumed Linux limited user space addresses
to 43 bits on Power64 based on a paper from 2001. It turns
out the limit is now 46 bits, so lfstack was truncating
pointers.
Raise the limit to 48 bits (for some future proofing and to
make it match amd64) and add a self-test that will fail in a
useful way if ever unpack(pack(x)) != x.
With this change, dev.cc passes all.bash on power64le.

Previously, 9a was the only assembler that had a different

that otherwise assembled on all architectures. Add RET so
these work on 9a.

Eventually I'd like almost everything cmd/dist generates

constants with generated ones goos_nacl, goos_darwin,
goarch_386, and so on.

getFunctionSource gathers five lines of "margin" around every
requested sample line. However, if this margin went past the
end of the source file, getFunctionSource would encounter an
io.EOF error and abort with this error, resulting in listings
like
(pprof) list main.main
ROUTINE ======================== main.main in ...
0 8.33s (flat, cum) 99.17% of Total

Modify the error handling in getFunctionSource so io.EOF is
always considered non-fatal. If it reaches EOF, it simply
returns the lines it has.

This change works around the "out of fixed registers"
issue with the Plan 9 C compiler on 386, introduced by
the Bits change to uint64 in CL 169060043.
The purpose of this CL is to be able to properly
follow the conversion of the Plan 9 runtime to Go
on the Plan 9 builders.
This CL could be reverted once the Go compilers will
be converted to Go.

The SudoG used to sit on the stack, so it was cheap to allocated
and didn't need to be cleaned up when finished.
For the conversion to Go, we had to move sudog off the stack
for a few reasons, so we added a cache of recently used sudogs
to keep allocation cheap. But we didn't add any of the necessary
cleanup before adding a SudoG to the new cache, and so the cached
SudoGs had stale pointers inside them that have caused all sorts
of awful, hard to debug problems.
CL 155760043 made sure SudoG.elem is cleaned up.
CL 150520043 made sure SudoG.selectdone is cleaned up.
This CL makes sure SudoG.next, SudoG.prev, and SudoG.waitlink
are cleaned up. I should have done this when I did the other two
fields; instead I wasted a week tracking down a leak they caused.
A dangling SudoG.waitlink can point into a sudogcache list that
has been "forgotten" in order to let the GC collect it, but that
dangling .waitlink keeps the list from being collected.
And then the list holding the SudoG with the dangling waitlink
can find itself in the same situation, and so on. We end up
with lists of lists of unusable SudoGs that are still linked into
the object graph and never collected (given the right mix of
non-trivial selects and non-channel synchronization).
