BenchmarkRC4_1K 327.80 312.58 0.95x
BenchmarkRC4_8K 307.24 313.00 1.02x
For comparison, on the same machine, openssl 0.9.8r reports
its rc4 speed as somewhat under 350 MB/s for both 1K and 8K.
The Core i5 performance can be boosted another 20%, but only
by making the Xeon performance significantly slower.
On an Intel Xeon E5520:
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkRC4_128 774 417 -46.12%
BenchmarkRC4_1K 6121 3200 -47.72%

BenchmarkRC4_8K 167.29 321.89 1.92x
For comparison, on the same machine, openssl 1.0.1
(which uses a different implementation than 0.9.8r)
reports its rc4 speed as 587 MB/s for 1K and 601 MB/s for 8K.
It is using SIMD instructions to do more in parallel.
So there's still some improvement to be had, but even so,
this is almost 2x faster than what it replaced.

Fixes#5061.
Current code relies on the fact that fd's are automatically removed from epoll set when closed. However, it is not true. Underlying file description is removed from epoll set only when *all* fd's referring to it are closed.
There are 2 bad consequences:
1. Kernel delivers notifications on already closed fd's.
2. The following sequence of events leads to error:
- add fd1 to epoll
- dup fd1 = fd2
- close fd1 (not removed from epoll since we've dup'ed the fd)
- dup fd2 = fd1 (get the same fd as fd1)
- add fd1 to epoll = EEXIST
So, if fd can be potentially dup'ed of fork'ed, it's necessary to explicitly remove the fd from epoll set.

Hashtable is arranged as an array of
8-entry buckets with chained overflow.
Each bucket has 8 extra hash bits
per key to provide quick lookup within
a bucket. Table is grown incrementally.

debugging Issue 4183
Unfortunately this package lacks testing around this,
or most of child.go. :/

Fixes#5085.
{6,8}c/swt.c allocates a third Biobuf in automatic memory which is not terminated at the end of the function. This causes the buffer to be 'in use' when the batexit handler fires, confusing valgrind.
Huge thanks to DMorsing for the diagnosis.

Inserting a key-value pair into a hashmap storing keys or values
indirectly can cause the garbage collector to find the hashmap in

- A note doesn't have to be in the first
comment of a comment group anymore, and
several notes may appear in the same comment
group (e.g., it is fairly common to have a
TODO(uid) note immediately following another
comment).
- Define a doc.Note type which also contains
note uid and position info.
- Better formatting in godoc output. The position
information is not yet used, but could be used to
locate the note in the source text if desired.
Fixes#4843.

godef[1][2] is a third party tool for printing information about
expressions, especially the location of their definition. This can be
used to implement a "jump to definition" function. Unlike
cross-language solutions like ctags, godef does not require an index,
operates on the Go AST instead of symbols and works across packages,
including the standard library.
This patch implements two new public functions: godef-describe (C-c
C-d) and godef-jump (C-d C-j). godef-describe describes the expression
at point, printing its type, and godef-jump jumps to its definition.

On NetBSD tv_sec is already an int64 so no need for a test.
On OpenBSD, semasleep expects a Unix time as argument,
and 1<<30 is in 2004.
