It was needed for the old scheduler,
because there temporary could be more threads than gomaxprocs.
In the new scheduler gomaxprocs is always respected.

gcpc/gcsp are used by GC in similar situation.
gcpc/gcsp are also more stable than gp->sched,
because gp->sched is mutated by entersyscall/exitsyscall
in morestack and mcall. So it has higher chances of being inconsistent.
Also, rename gcpc/gcsp to syscallpc/syscallsp.

Windows dynamic priority boosting assumes that a process has different types
of dedicated threads -- GUI, IO, computational, etc. Go processes use
equivalent threads that all do a mix of GUI, IO, computations, etc.
In such context dynamic priority boosting does nothing but harm, so turn it off.
In particular, if 2 goroutines do heavy IO on a server uniprocessor machine,
windows rejects to schedule timer thread for 2+ seconds when priority boosting is enabled.

cmd/api is a tool to prevent the Go developers from breaking
the Go 1 API promise. It has no utility to end users and
doesn't run on arbitrary packages (it's always been full of
hacks for its bespoke type checker to work on the standard
library)

Robert's in-progress rewrite depends on the go.tools repo for
go/types, so we won't be able to ship this tool later
anyway. Just remove it from binary distributions.

A future change to run.bash can conditionally build & run
cmd/api, perhaps automatically fetching go/types if
necessary. I assume people don't want to vendor go/types into
a private gopath just for cmd/api.

I will need help with run.bat.

It's okay to preempt at ordinary function calls because
compilers arrange that there are no live registers to save
on entry to the function call.

The software floating point routines are function calls
masquerading as individual machine instructions. They are
expected to keep all the registers intact. In particular,
they are expected not to clobber all the floating point
registers.

The floating point registers are kept per-M, because they
are not live at non-preemptive goroutine scheduling events,
and so keeping them per-M reduces the number of 132-byte
register blocks we are keeping in memory.

Because they are per-M, allowing the goroutine to be
rescheduled during software floating point simulation
would mean some other goroutine could overwrite the registers
or perhaps the goroutine would continue running on a different
M entirely.

Disallow preemption during the software floating point
routines to make sure that a function full of floating point
instructions has the same floating point registers throughout
its execution.
