Richard Miller f2f2434d47 syscall: avoid failure in plan9 StartProcess from fd close race
Between the enumeration of fdsToClose in the parent and the
closing of fds in the child, it's possible for a file to be
closed in another thread. If that file descriptor is reused
when opening the child-parent status pipe, it will be closed
prematurely in the child and the forkExec gets out of sync.
This has been observed to cause failures in builder tests
when the link step of a build is started before the compile
step has run, with "file does not exist" messages as the
visible symptom.

The simple workaround is to check against closing the pipe.
A more comprehensive solution would be to rewrite the fd
closing code to avoid races, along the lines of the long
ago proposed https://golang.org/cl/57890043 - but meanwhile
this correction will prevent some builder failures.

The Go Programming Language

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

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

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.
