      runtime: accurately record whether heap memory is reserved · 4ebfa831
      Ian Lance Taylor authored
      The existing code did not have a clear notion of whether
      memory has been actually reserved.  It checked based on
      whether in 32-bit mode or 64-bit mode and (on GNU/Linux) the
      requested address, but it confused the requested address and
      the returned address.

      net/http: don't re-use Transport connections if we've seen an EOF · cc2c5fc3
      Brad Fitzpatrick authored
      This the second part of making persistent HTTPS connections to
      certain servers (notably Amazon) robust.
      
      See the story in part 1: https://golang.org/cl/76400046/
      
      This is the http Transport change that notes whether our
      net.Conn.Read has ever seen an EOF. If it has, then we use
      that as an additional signal to not re-use that connection (in
      addition to the HTTP response headers)
      
      Fixes #3514

      crypto/tls: make Conn.Read return (n, io.EOF) when EOF is next in buffer · f61f18d6
      Brad Fitzpatrick authored
      Update #3514
      
      An io.Reader is permitted to return either (n, nil)
      or (n, io.EOF) on EOF or other error.
      
      The tls package previously always returned (n, nil) for a read
      of size n if n bytes were available, not surfacing errors at
      the same time.
      
      Amazon's HTTPS frontends like to hang up on clients without
      sending the appropriate HTTP headers. (In their defense,
      they're allowed to hang up any time, but generally a server
      hangs up after a bit of inactivity, not immediately.) In any
      case, the Go HTTP client tries to re-use connections by
      looking at whether the response headers say to keep the
      connection open, and because the connection looks okay, under
      heavy load it's possible we'll reuse it immediately, writing
      the next request, just as the Transport's always-reading
      goroutine returns from tls.Conn.Read and sees (0, io.EOF).
      
      But because Amazon does send an AlertCloseNotify record before
      it hangs up on us, and the tls package does its own internal
      buffering (up to 1024 bytes) of pending data, we have the
      AlertCloseNotify in an unread buffer when our Conn.Read (to
      the HTTP Transport code) reads its final bit of data in the
      HTTP response body.
      
      This change makes that final Read return (n, io.EOF) when
      an AlertCloseNotify record is buffered right after, if we'd
      otherwise return (n, nil).
      
      A dependent change in the HTTP code then notes whether a
      client connection has seen an io.EOF and uses that as an
      additional signal to not reuse a HTTPS connection. With both
      changes, the majority of Amazon request failures go
      away. Without either one, 10-20 goroutines hitting the S3 API
      leads to such an error rate that empirically up to 5 retries
      are needed to complete an API call.

      runtime: change nproc local variable to uint32 · 8de04c78
      Ian Lance Taylor authored
      The nproc and ndone fields are uint32.  This makes the type
      consistent.

      database/sql: add "defer rows.Close()" to the example code. · 50ca1a52
      Nigel Tao authored
      Strictly speaking, it's not necessary in example_test.go, as the
      Rows.Close docs say that "If Next returns false, the Rows are closed
      automatically". However, if the for loop breaks or returns early, it's
      not obvious that you'll leak unless you explicitly call Rows.Close.

      runtime: use VEH, not SEH, for windows/386 exception handling · 3750904a
      Russ Cox authored
      Structured Exception Handling (SEH) was the first way to handle
      exceptions (memory faults, divides by zero) on Windows.
      The S might as well stand for "stack-based": the implementation
      interprets stack addresses in a few different ways, and it gets
      subtly confused by Go's management of stacks. It's also something
      that requires active maintenance during cgo switches, and we've
      had bugs in that maintenance in the past.
      
      We have recently come to believe that SEH cannot work with
      Go's stack usage. See http://golang.org/issue/7325 for details.
      
      Vectored Exception Handling (VEH) is more like a Unix signal
      handler: you set it once for the whole process and forget about it.
      
      This CL drops all the SEH code and replaces it with VEH code.
      Many special cases and 7 #ifdefs disappear.
      
      VEH was introduced in Windows XP, so Go on windows/386 will
      now require Windows XP or later. The previous requirement was
      Windows 2000 or later. Windows 2000 immediately preceded
      Windows XP, so Windows 2000 is the only affected version.
      Microsoft stopped supporting Windows 2000 in 2010.
      See http://golang.org/s/win2000-golang-nuts for details.
      
      Fixes #7325.

      math/cmplx: define Pow(0, x) for problematic values of x. · a9014ba4
      Rob Pike authored
      Currently it's always zero, but that is inconsistent with math.Pow
      and also plain wrong.
      This is a proposal for how it should be defined.
      Fixes #7583.
