Go 1.21.1 and Go 1.22 have ceased working around an issue with Linux kernel defaults for transparent huge pages that can result in excessive memory overheads. (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93111) Many Linux distributions disable huge pages altogether these days, so this problem isn't quite as far-reaching as it used to be. Also, the problem only affects Go programs with very particular memory usage patterns. That being said, because the runtime used to actively deal with this problem (but with some unpredictable behavior), it's preventing users that don't have a lot of control over their execution environment from upgrading to Go beyond Go 1.20. This change adds a GODEBUG to smooth over the transition. The GODEBUG setting disables transparent huge pages for all heap memory on Linux, which is much more predictable than restoring the old behavior. Fixes #64332.
