Scanner can't handle stupid long lines and there are
reports of stupid long lines in production.
Note the issue isn't long "//go:generate" lines, but
any long line in any Go source file.
To be fair, if you're going to have a stupid long line
it's not a bad bet you'll want to run it through go
generate, because it's some embeddable asset that
has been machine generated. (One could ask why
that generation process didn't add a newline or two,
but we should cope anyway.)
Rewrite the file scanner in "go generate" so it can
handle arbitrarily long lines, and only stores in memory
those lines that start "//go:generate".
Also: Adjust the documentation to make clear that it
does not parse the file.

During garbage collection, after scanning a stack, we think about
shrinking it to reclaim some memory. The shrinking code (called
while the world is stopped) checked that the status was Gwaiting
or Grunnable and then changed the state to Gcopystack, to essentially
lock the stack so that no other GC thread is scanning it.
The same locking happens for stack growth (and is more necessary there).
oldstatus = runtime·readgstatus(gp);
oldstatus &= ~Gscan;
if(oldstatus == Gwaiting || oldstatus == Grunnable)
runtime·casgstatus(gp, oldstatus, Gcopystack); // oldstatus is Gwaiting or Grunnable
else
runtime·throw("copystack: bad status, not Gwaiting or Grunnable");
Unfortunately, "stop the world" doesn't stop everything. It stops all
normal goroutine execution, but the network polling thread is still
blocked in epoll and may wake up. If it does, and it chooses a goroutine
to mark runnable, and that goroutine is the one whose stack is shrinking,
then it can happen that between readgstatus and casgstatus, the status
changes from Gwaiting to Grunnable.
casgstatus assumes that if the status is not what is expected, it is a
transient change (like from Gwaiting to Gscanwaiting and back, or like
from Gwaiting to Gcopystack and back), and it loops until the status
has been restored to the expected value. In this case, the status has
changed semi-permanently from Gwaiting to Grunnable - it won't
change again until the GC is done and the world can continue, but the
GC is waiting for the status to change back. This wedges the program.
To fix, call a special variant of casgstatus that accepts either Gwaiting
or Grunnable as valid statuses.
Without the fix bug with the extra check+throw in casgstatus, the
program below dies in a few seconds (2-10) with GOMAXPROCS=8
on a 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. With the fix, it runs for minutes

Race detector runtime does not tolerate operations on addresses
that was not previously declared with __tsan_map_shadow
(namely, data, bss and heap). The corresponding address
checks for atomic operations were removed in
https://golang.org/cl/111310044
Restore these checks.
It's tricker than just not calling into race runtime,
because it is the race runtime that makes the atomic
operations themselves (if we do not call into race runtime
we skip the atomic operation itself as well). So instead we call
__tsan_go_ignore_sync_start/end around the atomic operation.
This forces race runtime to skip all other processing
except than doing the atomic operation itself.

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.

getFunctionSource gathers five lines of "margin" around every

end of the source file, getFunctionSource would encounter an
io.EOF error and abort with this error, resulting in listings
like

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).

Language clarification.
The existing rules for selector expressions imply
automatic dereferencing of pointers to struct fields.
They also implied automatic dereferencing of selectors
denoting methods. In almost all cases, such automatic
dereferencing does indeed take place for methods but the
reason is not the selector rules but the fact that method
sets include both methods with T and *T receivers; so for
a *T actual receiver, a method expecting a formal T
receiver, also accepts a *T (and the invocation or method
value expression is the reason for the auto-derefering).
However, the rules as stated so far implied that even in
case of a variable p of named pointer type P, a selector
expression p.f would always be shorthand for (*p).f. This
is true for field selectors f, but cannot be true for
method selectors since a named pointer type always has an
empty method set.
Named pointer types may never appear as anonymous field
types (and method receivers, for that matter), so this
only applies to variables declared of a named pointer
type. This is exceedingly rare and perhaps shouldn't be
permitted in the first place (but we cannot change that).
Amended the selector rules to make auto-deref of values
of named pointer types an exception to the general rules
and added corresponding examples with explanations.
Both gc and gccgo have a bug where they do auto-deref
pointers of named types in method selectors where they
should not:
