    cmd/compile: copy all fields during SubstAny · 9e619739
    Josh Bleecher Snyder authored
    Consider these functions:
    
    func f(a any) int
    func g(a any) int
    
    Prior to this change, since f and g have identical signatures,
    they would share a single generated func type.
    
    types.SubstAny makes a shallow type copy, even after instantiation,
    f and g share a single generated Result type.
    So if you instantiate f with any=T, call dowidth,
    instantiate g with any=U, and call dowidth,
    and if sizeof(T) != sizeof(U),
    then the Offset of the result for f is now wrong.
    
    I don't believe this happens at all right now, but it bit me hard when
    experimenting with some other compiler changes.
    And it's hard to debug. It results in rare stack corruption, causing
    problems far from the actual source of the problem.
    
    To fix this, change SubstAny to make deep copies of TSTRUCTs.
