Gentraceback may grow the stack.
One of the gentraceback wrappers may grow the stack.
One of the gentraceback callback calls may grow the stack.
Various stack pointers are stored in various stack locations
as type uintptr during the execution of these calls.
If the stack does grow, these stack pointers will not be
updated and will start trying to decode stack memory that
is no longer valid.
It may be possible to change the type of the stack pointer
variables to be unsafe.Pointer, but that's pretty subtle and
may still have problems, even if we catch every last one.
An easier, more obviously correct fix is to require that
gentraceback of the currently running goroutine must run
on the g0 stack, not on the goroutine's own stack.
Not doing this causes faults when you set
StackFromSystem = 1
StackFaultOnFree = 1
The new check in gentraceback will catch future lapses.
The more general problem is calling getcallersp but then
calling a function that might relocate the stack, which would
invalidate the result of getcallersp. Add note to stubs.go
declaration of getcallersp explaining the problem, and
check all existing calls to getcallersp. Most needed fixes.
This affects Callers, Stack, and nearly all the runtime
profiling routines. It does not affect stack copying directly
nor garbage collection.

Previously, mkvar treated, for example, 0(AX) the same as AX.
As a result, a move to an indirect address would be marked as
*setting* the register, rather than just using it, resulting
in unnecessary register moves. Fix this by not producing
variables for indirect addresses.

So far all of our architectures have had at most 32 registers,
so we've been able to use entry 0 in the Bits uint32 array
directly as a register mask. Power64 has 64 registers, so
this converts Bits to a uint64 array so we can continue to use
entry 0 directly as a register mask on Power64.

This adds an independent mark phase to the GC that can be used to

objects. It uses the upper 2 bits of the boundary nibble to encode
the mark leaving the lower bits to encode the boundary and the

One failing case this removes is:
var bytes = []byte("hello, world")
var copy_bytes = bytes
We could handle this in the compiler, but it requires special
case for a variable that is initialized to the value of a
variable that is initialized to a string literal converted to
[]byte. This seems an unlikely case--it never occurs in the
standrd library--and it seems unnecessary to write the code to
handle it.
If we do want to support this case, one approach is
https://golang.org/cl/171840043.
The other failing cases are of the form
var bx bool
var copy_bx = bx
The compiler used to initialize copy_bx to false. However,
that led to issue 7665, since bx may be initialized in non-Go
code. The compiler no longer assumes that bx must be false,
so copy_bx can not be statically initialized.
We can fix these with https://golang.org/cl/169040043
if we also pass -complete to the compiler as part of this
test. This is OK but it's too late in the release cycle.

Previously, nilopt was disabled on power64x because it threw
away "seemly random segments of code." Indeed, excise on
power64x failed to preserve the link field, so it excised not
only the requested instruction but all following instructions
in the function. Fix excise to retain the link field while
otherwise zeroing the instruction.
This makes nilopt safe on power64x. It still fails
nilptr3.go's tests for removal of repeated nil checks because
those depend on also optimizing away repeated loads, which
doesn't currently happen on power64x.

fastrand1 depends on testing the high bit of its uint32 state.
For efficiency, all of the architectures implement this as a
sign bit test. However, on power64, fastrand1 was using a
64-bit sign test on the zero-extended 32-bit state. This
always failed, causing fastrand1 to have very short periods
and often decay to 0 and get stuck.
Fix this by using a 32-bit signed compare instead of a 64-bit
compare. This fixes various tests for the randomization of
select of map iteration.

All three cases of clearfat were wrong on power64x.
The cases that handle 1032 bytes and up and 32 bytes and up
both use MOVDU (one directly generated in a loop and the other
via duffzero), which leaves the pointer register pointing at
the *last written* address. The generated code was not
accounting for this, so the byte fill loop was re-zeroing the
last zeroed dword, rather than the bytes following the last
zeroed dword. Fix this by simply adding an additional 8 byte
offset to the byte zeroing loop.
The case that handled under 32 bytes was also wrong. It
didn't update the pointer register at all, so the byte zeroing
loop was simply re-zeroing the beginning of region. Again,
the fix is to add an offset to the byte zeroing loop to
account for this.

This CL implements the many multiword write barriers by calling
writebarrierptr, so that only writebarrierptr needs the actual barrier.
In lieu of an actual barrier, writebarrierptr checks that the value
being copied is not a small non-zero integer. This is enough to
shake out bugs where the barrier is being called when it should not
(for non-pointer values). It also found a few tests in sync/atomic
that were being too clever.
This CL adds a write barrier for the memory moved during the
builtin copy function, which I forgot when inserting barriers for Go 1.4.
This CL re-enables some write barriers that were disabled for Go 1.4.
Those were disabled because it is possible to change the generated
code so that they are unnecessary most of the time, but we have not
changed the generated code yet. For safety they must be enabled.
None of this is terribly efficient. We are aiming for correct first.
