Access to globals requires a 2-instruction sequence on PIC 386. MOVL foo(SB), AX is translated by the obj package into: CALL getPCofNextInstructionInTempRegister(SB) MOVL (&foo-&thisInstruction)(tmpReg), AX The call returns the PC of the next instruction in a register. The next instruction then offsets from that register to get the address required. The tricky part is the allocation of the temp register. The legacy compiler always used CX, and forbid the register allocator from allocating CX when in PIC mode. We can't easily do that in SSA because CX is actually a required register for shift instructions. (I think the old backend got away with this because the register allocator never uses CX, only codegen knows that shifts must use CX.) Instead, we allow the temp register to be anything. When the destination of the MOV (or LEA) is an integer register, we can use that register. Otherwise, we make sure to compile the operation using an LEA to reference the global. So MOVL AX, foo(SB) is never generated directly. Instead, SSA generates: LEAL foo(SB), DX MOVL AX, (DX) which is then rewritten by the obj package to: CALL getPcInDX(SB) LEAL (&foo-&thisInstruction)(DX), AX MOVL AX, (DX) So this CL modifies the obj package to use different thunks to materialize the pc into different registers. We use the registers that regalloc chose so that SSA can still allocate the full set of registers.

The Go Programming Language
Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
For documentation about how to install and use Go, visit https://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html in your web browser.
Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.
Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!
To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html
Note that we do not accept pull requests and that we use the issue tracker for bug reports and proposals only. Please ask questions on https://forum.golangbridge.org or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts.
Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.

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 file). 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-source.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 https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
