Austin Clements f5c42cf88e runtime: replace traceBuf slice with index
Currently traceBuf keeps track of where it is in the trace buffer by
also maintaining a slice that points in to this buffer with an initial
length of 0 and a cap of the length of the array. All writes to this
buffer are done by appending to the slice (as long as the bounds
checks are right, it will never overflow and the append won't allocate
a new slice).

Each of these appends generates a write barrier. As long as we never
overflow the buffer, this write barrier won't fire, but this wreaks
havoc with eliminating write barriers from the tracing code. If we
were to overflow the buffer, this would both allocate and invoke a
write barrier, both things that are dicey at best to do in many of the
contexts tracing happens. It also wastes space in the traceBuf and
leads to more complex code and more complex generated code.

Replace this slice trick with keeping track of a simple array
position.

Updates #10600.

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.

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.
