      encoding/gob: custom array/slice decoders · 9965e402
      Rob Pike authored
      Use go generate to write better loops for decoding arrays,
      just as we did for encoding. It doesn't help as much,
      relatively speaking, but it's still noticeable.

      Don't use cmd/pprof as it is not necessary installed
      and does not work on nacl and plan9.
      Instead just look at the raw profile.

      cmd/gc: don't use static init to initialize small structs, fields · cfafa9f4
      Russ Cox authored
      Better to avoid the memory loads and just use immediate constants.
      This especially applies to zeroing, which was being done by
      copying zeros from elsewhere in the binary, even if the value
      was going to be completely initialized with non-zero values.
      The zero writes were optimized away but the zero loads from
      the data segment were not.

      encoding/gob: speed up encoding of arrays and slices · 5e713062
      Rob Pike authored
      We borrow a trick from the fmt package and avoid reflection
      to walk the elements when possible. We could push further with
      unsafe (and we may) but this is a good start.
      Decode can benefit similarly; it will be done separately.
      
      Use go generate (engen.go) to produce the helper functions
      (enc_helpers.go).

      It cannot run 'go tool pprof'. There is no guarantee that's installed.
      It needs to build a temporary pprof binary and run that.
      It also needs to skip the test on systems that can't build and
      run binaries, namely android and nacl.

      runtime: fix memory profiler · 8f47c837
      Dmitriy Vyukov authored
      There are 3 issues:
      1. Skip argument of callers is off by 3,
      so that all allocations are deep inside of memory profiler.
      2. Memory profiling statistics are not updated after runtime.GC.
      3. Testing package does not update memory profiling statistics
      before capturing the profile.
      Also add an end-to-end test.
      Fixes #8867.

      cmd/gc: elide write barrier for x = x[0:y] and x = append(x, ...) · 1552e62d
      Russ Cox authored
      Both of these forms can avoid writing to the base pointer in x
      (in the slice, always, and in the append, most of the time).
      
      For Go 1.5, will need to change the compilation of x = x[0:y]
      to avoid writing to the base pointer, so that the elision is safe,
      and will need to change the compilation of x = append(x, ...)
      to write to the base pointer (through a barrier) only when
      growing the underlying array, so that the general elision is safe.
      
      For Go 1.4, elide the write barrier always, a change that should
      have equivalent performance characteristics but is much
      simpler and therefore safer.

      crypto/tls: support TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV as a server. · e5624edc
      Adam Langley authored
      A new attack on CBC padding in SSLv3 was released yesterday[1]. Go only
      supports SSLv3 as a server, not as a client. An easy fix is to change
      the default minimum version to TLS 1.0 but that seems a little much
      this late in the 1.4 process as it may break some things.
      
      Thus this patch adds server support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV[2] -- a
      mechanism for solving the fallback problem overall. Chrome has
      implemented this since February and Google has urged others to do so in
      light of yesterday's news.
      
      With this change, clients can indicate that they are doing a fallback
      connection and Go servers will be able to correctly reject them.

      cmd/gc: simplify compiled code for explicit zeroing · 3c40ee0f
      Russ Cox authored
      Among other things, *x = T{} does not need a write barrier.
      The changes here avoid an unnecessary copy even when
      no pointers are involved, so it may have larger effects.
      
      In 6g and 8g, avoid manually repeated STOSQ in favor of
      writing explicit MOVs, under the theory that the MOVs
      should have fewer dependencies and pipeline better.
      
      Benchmarks compare best of 5 on a 2012 MacBook Pro Core i5
      with TurboBoost disabled. Most improvements can be explained
      by the changes in this CL.
      
      The effect in Revcomp is real but harder to explain: none of
      the instructions in the inner loop changed. I suspect loop
      alignment but really have no idea.

      cmd/gc: do not copy via temporary for writebarrierfat{2,3,4} · 9aefdc80
      Russ Cox authored
      The general writebarrierfat needs a temporary for src,
      because we need to pass the address of the temporary
      to the writebarrierfat routine. But the new fixed-size
      ones pass the value directly and don't need to introduce
      the temporary.
      
      Magnifies some of the effect of the custom write barrier change.

      net/http: don't send implicit gzip Accept-Encoding on Range requests · 42c31307
      Brad Fitzpatrick authored
      The http package by default adds "Accept-Encoding: gzip" to outgoing
      requests, unless it's a bad idea, or the user requested otherwise.
      Only when the http package adds its own implicit Accept-Encoding header
      does the http package also transparently un-gzip the response.
      
      If the user requested part of a document (e.g. bytes 40 to 50), it appears
      that Github/Varnish send:
              range(gzip(content), 40, 50)
      
      And not:
              gzip(range(content, 40, 50))
      
      The RFC 2616 set of replacements (with the purpose of
      clarifying ambiguities since 1999) has an RFC about Range
      requests (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7233) but does not
      mention the interaction with encodings.
      
      Regardless of whether range(gzip(content)) or gzip(range(content)) is
      correct, this change prevents the Go package from asking for gzip
      in requests if we're also asking for Range, avoiding the issue.
      If the user cared, they can do it themselves. But Go transparently
      un-gzipping a fragment of gzip is never useful.
      
      Fixes #8923

      The racewalk code was not updated for the new write barriers.

      The new write barrier code assumed that +1 pointer would
      be aligned properly for any type that might follow, but that's
      not true on 32-bit systems where some types are 64-bit aligned.
      The only system like that today is nacl/amd64p32.
      Insert a dummy pointer so that the ambiguously typed
      value is at +2 pointers, which is always max-aligned.

      cmd/gc: add 2-, 3-, 4-word write barrier specializations · a3416cf5
      Russ Cox authored
      Assignments of 2-, 3-, and 4-word values were handled
      by individual MOV instructions (and for scalars still are).
      But if there are pointers involved, those assignments now
      go through the write barrier routine. Before this CL, they
      went to writebarrierfat, which calls memmove.
      Memmove is too much overhead for these small
      amounts of data.
      
      Instead, call writebarrierfat{2,3,4}, which are specialized
      for the specific amount of data being copied.
      Today the write barrier does not care which words are
      pointers, so size alone is enough to distinguish the cases.
      If we keep these distinctions in Go 1.5 we will need to
      expand them for all the pointer-vs-scalar possibilities,
      so the current 3 functions will become 3+7+15 = 25,
      still not a large burden (we deleted more morestack
      functions than that when we dropped segmented stacks).
