Update #543
I believe the runtime is strong enough now to reenable
preemption during the function prologue.
Assuming this is or can be made stable, it will be in Go 1.2.
More aggressive preemption is not planned for Go 1.2.

Currently preemption signal g->stackguard0==StackPreempt
can be lost if it is received when preemption is disabled
(e.g. m->lock!=0). This change duplicates the preemption
signal in g->preempt and restores g->stackguard0
when preemption is enabled.

With this CL, I believe the runtime always knows
the frame size during the gc walk. There is no fallback
to "assume entire stack frame of caller" anymore.

clearfat (used to zero initialize structures) will use AX for x86 block ops. If we write to AX while calculating the dest pointer, we will fill the structure with incorrect values.
Since 64-bit arithmetic uses AX to synthesize a 64-bit register, getting an adress by indexing with 64-bit ops can clobber the register.

I have not done the system call stubs in sys_*.s.
I hope to avoid that, because those do not block, so those

While we're here, fix Syscall9 on NetBSD and OpenBSD:
it was storing the results into the wrong memory locations.

Design at http://golang.org/s/go12symtab.
This enables some cleanup of the garbage collector metadata
that will be done in future CLs.
This CL does not move the old symtab and pclntab back into
an unmapped section of the file. That's a bit tricky and will be
done separately.

A type switch on a value with map index expressions,
could get a spurious instrumentation from a OTYPESW node.
These nodes do not need instrumentation because after

The postinstall script causes the installation to fail because the last
step that copies files for Xcode is broken. Two details can cause the
command to fail:
1. The XCODE_MISC_DIR value has a space. Without quotes in the cp
command, cp will just complain that this is an invalid syntax.
2. The source of the cp is a directory with two subdirectories.
We actually want the files for either Xcode 3 or Xcode 4 to be copied.
Using xcodebuild -version, we check for the Xcode version and
select which of xcode/3/* or xcode/4/* should be the source
of the copy.

Before:
$ go test -c -cover fmt
$ ./fmt.test -test.covermode=set
PASS

$
After:
$ go test -c -cover fmt
$ ./fmt.test
PASS

In addition to being cumbersome, the old flag didn't make sense:
the cover mode cannot be changed after the binary has been built.
Another useful effect of this CL is that if you happen to do
$ go test -c -covermode=atomic fmt
and then forget you did that and run benchmarks,
the final line of the output (the coverage summary) reminds you
that you are benchmarking with coverage enabled, which might
not be what you want.
$ ./fmt.test -test.bench .

I want to think more carefully about this.
We put this in because Marshal encoded named []byte but Unmarshal rejected them.
And we noticed that Marshal's behavior was undocumented so we documented it.
But I am starting to think the docs and Unmarshal were correct and Marshal's
behavior was the problem.
Rolling back to give us more time to think.
««« original CL description
json: unmarshal types that are byte slices.
The json package cheerfully would marshal
type S struct {
IP net.IP
}
but would give an error when unmarshalling. This change allows any
type whose concrete type is a byte slice to be unmarshalled from a
string.

In practice, rejecting an entire structure due to a single invalid byte
in a string is just too picky, and too hard to track down.
Be consistent with the bulk of the standard library by converting
invalid UTF-8 into UTF-8 with replacement runes.

Deferred functions are not run by a call instruction. They are run by
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.

This is a transcript before this change. I've capitalized the text being removed.
Note that it is always near another line that already says fmt, marked with <<<

$ go test -coverpkg strconv -c
