Better to avoid the memory loads and just use immediate constants.
This especially applies to zeroing, which was being done by
copying zeros from elsewhere in the binary, even if the value
was going to be completely initialized with non-zero values.
The zero writes were optimized away but the zero loads from
the data segment were not.

We borrow a trick from the fmt package and avoid reflection

unsafe (and we may) but this is a good start.
Decode can benefit similarly; it will be done separately.

Both of these forms can avoid writing to the base pointer in x
(in the slice, always, and in the append, most of the time).
For Go 1.5, will need to change the compilation of x = x[0:y]
to avoid writing to the base pointer, so that the elision is safe,
and will need to change the compilation of x = append(x, ...)
to write to the base pointer (through a barrier) only when
growing the underlying array, so that the general elision is safe.
For Go 1.4, elide the write barrier always, a change that should
have equivalent performance characteristics but is much
simpler and therefore safer.

A new attack on CBC padding in SSLv3 was released yesterday[1]. Go only
supports SSLv3 as a server, not as a client. An easy fix is to change
the default minimum version to TLS 1.0 but that seems a little much
this late in the 1.4 process as it may break some things.
Thus this patch adds server support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV[2] -- a
mechanism for solving the fallback problem overall. Chrome has
implemented this since February and Google has urged others to do so in
light of yesterday's news.
With this change, clients can indicate that they are doing a fallback
connection and Go servers will be able to correctly reject them.

Among other things, *x = T{} does not need a write barrier.
The changes here avoid an unnecessary copy even when
no pointers are involved, so it may have larger effects.
In 6g and 8g, avoid manually repeated STOSQ in favor of
writing explicit MOVs, under the theory that the MOVs
should have fewer dependencies and pipeline better.
Benchmarks compare best of 5 on a 2012 MacBook Pro Core i5
with TurboBoost disabled. Most improvements can be explained
by the changes in this CL.
The effect in Revcomp is real but harder to explain: none of
the instructions in the inner loop changed. I suspect loop
alignment but really have no idea.

The http package by default adds "Accept-Encoding: gzip" to outgoing
requests, unless it's a bad idea, or the user requested otherwise.
Only when the http package adds its own implicit Accept-Encoding header
does the http package also transparently un-gzip the response.
If the user requested part of a document (e.g. bytes 40 to 50), it appears
that Github/Varnish send:
range(gzip(content), 40, 50)
And not:
gzip(range(content, 40, 50))
The RFC 2616 set of replacements (with the purpose of
clarifying ambiguities since 1999) has an RFC about Range
requests (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7233) but does not
mention the interaction with encodings.
Regardless of whether range(gzip(content)) or gzip(range(content)) is
correct, this change prevents the Go package from asking for gzip
in requests if we're also asking for Range, avoiding the issue.
If the user cared, they can do it themselves. But Go transparently
un-gzipping a fragment of gzip is never useful.

The racewalk code was not updated for the new write barriers.
Make it more future-proof.
The new write barrier code assumed that +1 pointer would
be aligned properly for any type that might follow, but that's
not true on 32-bit systems where some types are 64-bit aligned.
The only system like that today is nacl/amd64p32.
Insert a dummy pointer so that the ambiguously typed
value is at +2 pointers, which is always max-aligned.

Assignments of 2-, 3-, and 4-word values were handled
by individual MOV instructions (and for scalars still are).
But if there are pointers involved, those assignments now
go through the write barrier routine. Before this CL, they
went to writebarrierfat, which calls memmove.
Memmove is too much overhead for these small
amounts of data.
Instead, call writebarrierfat{2,3,4}, which are specialized
for the specific amount of data being copied.
Today the write barrier does not care which words are
pointers, so size alone is enough to distinguish the cases.
If we keep these distinctions in Go 1.5 we will need to
expand them for all the pointer-vs-scalar possibilities,
so the current 3 functions will become 3+7+15 = 25,
still not a large burden (we deleted more morestack
functions than that when we dropped segmented stacks).

In [1] the behaviour of encoding/asn1 with respect to marshaling
optional integers was changed. Previously, a zero valued integer would
be omitted when marshaling. After the change, if a default value was
set then the integer would only be omitted if it was the default value.
This changed the behaviour of crypto/x509 because
Certificate.MaxPathLen has a default value of -1 and thus zero valued
MaxPathLens would no longer be omitted when marshaling. This is
arguably a bug-fix -- a value of zero for MaxPathLen is valid and
meaningful and now could be expressed. However it broke users
(including Docker) who were not setting MaxPathLen at all.
This change again causes a zero-valued MaxPathLen to be omitted and
introduces a ZeroMathPathLen member that indicates that, yes, one
really does want a zero. This is ugly, but we value not breaking users.
