unlike other BSD systems its default ephemeral port range

and is pretty narrow.

On DragonFly BSD 3.6: default range [1024, 5000], high range [49152, 65535]
On FreeBSD 10: default range [10000, 65535], high range [49152, 65535]

chanrecv now expects a pointer to the data to be filled in.
mapiterinit expects a pointer to the hash iterator to be filled in.
In both cases, the temporary being pointed at changes from
dead to alive during the call. In order to make sure it is
preserved if a garbage collection happens after that transition
but before the call returns, the temp must be marked as live
during the entire call.

But if it is live during the entire call, it needs to be safe for
the garbage collector to scan at the beginning of the call,
before the new data has been filled in. Therefore, it must be
zeroed by the caller, before the call. Do that.

My previous attempt waited to mark it live until after the
call returned, but that's unsafe (see first paragraph);
undo that change in plive.c.

This makes powser2 pass again reliably.

I looked at every call to temp in the compiler.
The vast majority are followed immediately by an
initialization of temp, so those are fine.
The only ones that needed changing were the ones
where the next operation is to pass the address of
the temp to a function call, and there aren't too many.

Maps are exempted from this because mapaccess
returns a pointer to the data and lets the caller make
the copy.

Fixes many builds.

instance.

This patch is to apply font-lock-builtin-face only when built-in
function name is followed by '(', so that it doesn't highlight

This is the same check we use during stack copying.
The check cannot be applied to C stack frames, even
though we do emit pointer bitmaps for the arguments,
because (1) the pointer bitmaps assume all arguments
are always live, not true of outputs during the prologue,
and (2) the pointer bitmaps encode interface values as
pointer pairs, not true of interfaces holding integers.

For the rest of the frames, however, we should hold ourselves
to the rule that a pointer marked live really is initialized.
The interface scanning already implicitly checks this
because it interprets the type word  as a valid type pointer.

This may slow things down a little because of the extra loads.
Or it may speed things up because we don't bother enqueuing
nil pointers anymore. Enough of the rest of the system is slow
right now that we can't measure it meaningfully.
Enable for now, even if it is slow, to shake out bugs in the
liveness bitmaps, and then decide whether to turn it off
for the Go 1.3 release (issue 7650 reminds us to do this).

The new m->traceback field lets us force printing of fp=
values on all goroutine stack traces when we detect a
bad pointer. This makes it easier to understand exactly
where in the frame the bad pointer is, so that we can trace
it back to a specific variable and determine what is wrong.

1. On entry to a function, only zero the ambiguously live stack variables.
Before, we were zeroing all stack variables containing pointers.
The zeroing is pretty inefficient right now (issue 7624), but there are also
too many stack variables detected as ambiguously live (issue 7345),
and that must be addressed before deciding how to improve the zeroing code.
(Changes in 5g/ggen.c, 6g/ggen.c, 8g/ggen.c, gc/pgen.c)

Fixes #7647.

2. Make the regopt word-based liveness analysis preserve the
whole-variable liveness property expected by the garbage collection
bitmap liveness analysis. That is, if the regopt liveness decides that
one word in a struct needs to be preserved, make sure it preserves
the entire struct. This is particularly important for multiword values
such as strings, slices, and interfaces, in which all the words need
to be present in order to understand the meaning.
(Changes in 5g/reg.c, 6g/reg.c, 8g/reg.c.)

Fixes #7591.

3. Make the regopt word-based liveness analysis treat a variable
as having its address taken - which makes it preserved across
all future calls - whenever n->addrtaken is set, for consistency
with the gc bitmap liveness analysis, even if there is no machine
instruction actually taking the address. In this case n->addrtaken
is incorrect (a nicer way to put it is overconservative), and ideally
there would be no such cases, but they can happen and the two
analyses need to agree.
(Changes in 5g/reg.c, 6g/reg.c, 8g/reg.c; test in bug484.go.)

Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.

4. Remove spurious VARDEF annotations. As the comment in
gc/pgen.c explains, the VARDEF must immediately precede
the initialization. It cannot be too early, and it cannot be too late.
In particular, if a function call sits between the VARDEF and the
actual machine instructions doing the initialization, the variable
will be treated as live during that function call even though it is
uninitialized, leading to problems.
(Changes in gc/gen.c; test in live.go.)

Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.

5. Do not treat loading the address of a wide value as a signal
that the value must be initialized. Instead depend on the existence
of a VARDEF or the first actual read/write of a word in the value.
If the load is in order to pass the address to a function that does
the actual initialization, treating the load as an implicit VARDEF
causes the same problems as described in step 4.
The alternative is to arrange to zero every such value before
passing it to the real initialization function, but this is a much
easier and more efficient change.
(Changes in gc/plive.c.)

Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.

6. Treat wide input parameters with their address taken as
initialized on entry to the function. Otherwise they look
"ambiguously live" and we will try to emit code to zero them.
(Changes in gc/plive.c.)

Fixes crashes found by turning off "zero everything" in step 1.

7. An array of length 0 has no pointers, even if the element type does.
Without this change, the zeroing code complains when asked to
clear a 0-length array.

Zeroing the outputs makes sure that during function calls
in those functions we do not let the garbage collector
treat uninitialized values as pointers.

The garbage collector may still see uninitialized values
if a preemption occurs during the function prologue,
before the zeroing has had a chance to run.

This reduces the number of 'bad pointer' messages when
that runtime check is enabled, but it doesn't fix all of them,
so the check is still disabled.

It will also avoid leaks, although I doubt any of these were
particularly serious.

Strictly saying it's possible to construct a counter-example that

lead to false positives in real programs, at least I would like to see such programs first.
Any additional annotations also increase probability of false negatives,

Currently it's possible that bgsweep finishes before all spans
have been swept (we only know that sweeping of all spans has *started*).
In such case bgsweep may fail wake up runfinq goroutine when it needs to.
finq may still be nil at this point, but some finalizers may be queued later.
Make bgsweep to wait for sweeping to *complete*, then it can decide
whether it needs to wake up runfinq for sure.

Fixes #7627.

CL 61970044 changed the order in which .a files are passed to gccgo's link phase. However by reversing the order it caused gccgo to complain if both internal (liba.a) and external (liba_test.a) versions of a package were presented as the former would not contain all the necessary symbols, and the latter would duplicate symbols already defined.

This change ensures that all 'fake' targets remain at the top of the final link order which should be fine as a package compiled as an external test is a superset of its internal sibling.

Looking at how gcToolchain links tests I think this change now accurately mirrors those actions which present $WORK/_test before $WORK in the link order.
