Most operations need an upper bound on the physical page size, which is what sys.PhysPageSize is for (this is checked at runtime init on Linux). However, a few operations need a *lower* bound on the physical page size. Introduce a "minPhysPageSize" constant to act as this lower bound and use it where it makes sense: 1) In addrspace_free, we have to query each page in the given range. Currently we increment by the upper bound on the physical page size, which means we may skip over pages if the true size is smaller. Worse, we currently pass a result buffer that only has enough room for one page. If there are actually multiple pages in the range passed to mincore, the kernel will overflow this buffer. Fix these problems by incrementing by the lower-bound on the physical page size and by passing "1" for the length, which the kernel will round up to the true physical page size. 2) In the write barrier, the bad pointer check tests for pointers to the first physical page, which are presumably small integers masquerading as pointers. However, if physical pages are smaller than we think, we may have legitimate pointers below sys.PhysPageSize. Hence, use minPhysPageSize for this test since pointers should never fall below that. In particular, this applies to ARM64 and MIPS. The runtime is configured to use 64kB pages on ARM64, but by default Linux uses 4kB pages. Similarly, the runtime assumes 16kB pages on MIPS, but both 4kB and 16kB kernel configurations are common. This also applies to ARM on systems where the runtime is recompiled to deal with a larger page size. It is also a step toward making the runtime use only a dynamically-queried page size.

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.
