If we're going to relax the requirement, it should be done

This CL is an aggregate of 10271047, 10499043, 9733044. Descriptions of each follow:
10499043
runtime,cmd/ld: Merge TLS symbols and teach 5l about ARM TLS
This CL prepares for external linking support to ARM.
The pseudo-symbols runtime.g and runtime.m are merged into a single
runtime.tlsgm symbol. When external linking, the offset of a thread local
variable is stored at a memory location instead of being embedded into a offset
of a ldr instruction. With a single runtime.tlsgm symbol for both g and m, only
one such offset is needed.
The larger part of this CL moves TLS code from gcc compiled to internally
compiled. The TLS code now uses the modern MRC instruction, and 5l is taught
about TLS fallbacks in case the instruction is not available or appropriate.
10271047
This CL adds support for -linkmode external to 5l.
For 5l itself, use addrel to allow for D_CALL relocations to be handled by the
host linker. Of the cases listed in rsc's comment in issue 4069, only case 5 and
63 needed an update. One of the TODO: addrel cases was since replaced, and the
rest of the cases are either covered by indirection through addpool (cases with
LTO or LFROM flags) or stubs (case 74). The addpool cases are covered because
addpool emits AWORD instructions, which in turn are handled by case 11.
In the runtime, change the argv argument in the rt0* functions slightly to be a
pointer to the argv list, instead of relying on a particular location of argv.
9733044
The -shared flag to 6l outputs a shared library, implemented in Go
and callable from non-Go programs such as C.
The main part of this CL change the thread local storage model.
Go uses the fastest and least general mode, local exec. TLS data in shared
libraries normally requires at least the local dynamic mode, however, this CL
instead opts for using the initial exec mode. Initial exec mode is faster than
local dynamic mode and can be used in linux since the linker has reserved a
limited amount of TLS space for performance sensitive TLS code.
Initial exec mode requires an extra load from the GOT table to determine the
TLS offset. This penalty will not be paid if ld is not in -shared mode, since
TLS accesses will be reduced to local exec.
The elf sections .init_array and .rela.init_array are added to register the Go
runtime entry with cgo at library load time.
The "hidden" attribute is added to Cgo functions called from Go, since Go
does not generate call through the GOT table, and adding non-GOT relocations for
a global function is not supported by gcc. Cgo symbols don't need to be global
and avoiding the GOT table is also faster.
The changes to 8l are only removes code relevant to the old -shared mode where
internal linking was used.
This CL only address the low level linker work. It can be submitted by itself,
but to be useful, the runtime changes in CL 9738047 is also needed.

Currently we lose lots of profiling signals.
Most notably, GC is not accounted at all.
But stack splits, scheduler, syscalls, etc are lost as well.

With this change all profiling signals are accounted.

Prior to this change, pointer maps encoded the disposition of
a word using a single bit. A zero signaled a non-pointer
value and a one signaled a pointer value. Interface values,
which are a effectively a union type, were conservatively
labeled as a pointer.
This change widens the logical element size of the pointer map
to two bits per word. As before, zero signals a non-pointer
value and one signals a pointer value. Additionally, a two
signals an iface pointer and a three signals an eface pointer.
Following other changes to the runtime, values two and three
will allow a type information to drive interpretation of the
subsequent word so only those interface values containing a
pointer value will be scanned.

A response to a HEAD request is supposed to look the same as a
response to a GET request, just without a body.
HEAD requests are incredibly rare in the wild.
The Go net/http package has so far treated HEAD requests
specially: a Write on our default ResponseWriter returned
ErrBodyNotAllowed, telling handlers that something was wrong.
This was to optimize the fast path for HEAD requests, but:
1) because HEAD requests are incredibly rare, they're not
worth having a fast path for.
2) Letting the http.Handler handle but do nop Writes is still
very fast.
3) this forces ugly error handling into the application.
e.g. https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=6f596be7a31e
and related.
4) The net/http package nowadays does Content-Type sniffing,
but you don't get that for HEAD.
5) The net/http package nowadays does Content-Length counting
for small (few KB) responses, but not for HEAD.
6) ErrBodyNotAllowed was useless. By the time you received it,
you had probably already done all your heavy computation
and I/O to calculate what to write.
So, this change makes HEAD requests like GET requests.
We now count content-length and sniff content-type for HEAD
requests. If you Write, it doesn't return an error.
If you want a fast-path in your code for HEAD, you have to do
it early and set all the response headers yourself. Just like
before. If you choose not to Write in HEAD requests, be sure
to set Content-Length if you know it. We won't write
"Content-Length: 0" because you might've just chosen to not
write (or you don't know your Content-Length in advance).

gcpc/gcsp are used by GC in similar situation.
gcpc/gcsp are also more stable than gp->sched,
because gp->sched is mutated by entersyscall/exitsyscall
in morestack and mcall. So it has higher chances of being inconsistent.
Also, rename gcpc/gcsp to syscallpc/syscallsp.
This is the same as reverted change 12250043
with save marked as textflag 7.
The problem was that if save calls morestack,
then subsequent lessstack spoils g->sched.pc/sp.
And that bad values were remembered in g->syscallpc/sp.
Entersyscallblock had the same problem,
but it was never triggered to date.

Basically a partial rollback of 12053043 until I can
figure out what is really going on.
Fixes bug 6051.

This means that pprof will no longer report profiles on OS X.
That's unfortunate, but the profiles were often wrong and, worse,
it was difficult to tell whether the profile was wrong or not.
The workarounds were making the scheduler more complex,
possibly caused a deadlock (see issue 5519), and did not actually
deliver reliable results.
It may be possible for adventurous users to apply a patch to
their kernels to get working results, or perhaps having no results
will encourage someone to do the work of creating a profiling
thread like on Windows. Issue 6047 has details.
Fixes#5519.
Fixes#6047.

This means that in the common case (modern kernel), we only
make 1 system call to dup instead of two, and we also avoid
grabbing the syscall.ForkLock.

you do reflect.call with too big an argument list.
Not worth the hassle.
