Package runtime's C functions written to be called from Go started out written in C using carefully constructed argument lists and the FLUSH macro to write a result back to memory. For some functions, the appropriate parameter list ended up being architecture-dependent due to differences in alignment, so we added 'goc2c', which takes a .goc file containing Go func declarations but C bodies, rewrites the Go func declaration to equivalent C declarations for the target architecture, adds the needed FLUSH statements, and writes out an equivalent C file. That C file is compiled as part of package runtime. Native Client's x86-64 support introduces the most complex alignment rules yet, breaking many functions that could until now be portably written in C. Using goc2c for those avoids the breakage. Separately, Keith's work on emitting stack information from the C compiler would require the hand-written functions to add #pragmas specifying how many arguments are result parameters. Using goc2c for those avoids maintaining #pragmas. For both reasons, use goc2c for as many Go-called C functions as possible. This CL is a replay of the bulk of CL 15400047 and CL 15790043, both of which were reviewed as part of the NaCl port and are checked in to the NaCl branch. This CL is part of bringing the NaCl code into the main tree. No new code here, just reformatting and occasional movement into .h files.
