These signals are used by glibc to broadcast setuid/setgid to all threads and to send pthread cancellations. Unlike other signals, the Go runtime does not intercept these because they must invoke the libc handlers (see issues #3871 and #6997). However, because 1) these signals may be issued asynchronously by a thread running C code to another thread running Go code and 2) glibc does not set SA_ONSTACK for its handlers, glibc's signal handler may be run on a Go stack. Signal frames range from 1.5K on amd64 to many kilobytes on ppc64, so this may overflow the Go stack and corrupt heap (or other stack) data. Fix this by ensuring that these signal handlers have the SA_ONSTACK flag (but not otherwise taking over the handler). This has been a problem since Go 1.1, but it's likely that people haven't encountered it because it only affects setuid/setgid and pthread_cancel. Fixes #9600.

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.
