The Go programming language
11e53e46a6
This will help find bugs during the release freeze. It's not clear it should be kept for the release itself. That's issue 8861. The most likely thing that would trigger this is stale pointers that previously were ignored or caused memory leaks. These were allowed due to the use of conservative collection. Now that everything is precise, we should not see them anymore. The small number check reinforces what the stack copier is already doing, catching the storage of integers in pointers. It caught issue 8864. The check is disabled if _cgo_allocate is linked into the binary, which is to say if the binary is using SWIG to allocate untyped Go memory. In that case, there are invalid pointers and there's nothing we can do about it. LGTM=rlh R=golang-codereviews, dvyukov, rlh CC=golang-codereviews, iant, khr, r https://golang.org/cl/148470043 |

After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install-source.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install/source.

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
