These functions claimed to return error (an interface)
and be implemented entirely in assembly, but it's not
possible to create an interface from assembly
(at least not easily).
In reality the functions were written to return an errno uintptr
despite the Go prototype saying error.
When the errno was 0, they coincidentally filled out a nil error
by writing the 0 to the type word of the interface.
If the errno was ever non-zero, the functions would
create a non-nil error that would crash when trying to
call err.Error().
Luckily these functions (Seek, Time, Gettimeofday) pretty
much never fail, so it was all kind of working.

SendmsgN is an alternate version Sendmsg that also returns
the number of bytes transferred, instead of just the error.

In particular: setsockopt, getsockopt, bind, connect.
There are probably more.
All platforms cross-compile with make.bash, and all.bash still
pases on linux/amd64.

This CL fixes code that incorrectly assumes that int is 32 bits wide.
Specifically, the socketpair system call expects a pointer to a pair
of int32s, not a pair of ints. Fix this inside the wrappers without
changing the APIs.
Update #2188.

- syscall (not os) now defines the Errno type.
- the low-level assembly functions Syscall, Syscall6, and so on
return Errno, not uintptr
- syscall wrappers all return error, not uintptr.

Permit system calls to be designated as non-blocking, meaning
that we simply call them without involving the scheduler.
This change by itself is mostly performance neutral. In
combination with a following change to the net package there
is a performance advantage.

Regenerate zsyscall_linux_*.go files with recent changes to
mksyscall.sh.
Add socketpair to syscall_linux_amd64.go; for some reason it
was in the generated file but not in the source file.

parsing and printing to new syntax.
Use -oldparser to parse the old syntax,
use -oldprinter to print the old syntax.
2) Change default gofmt formatting settings
to use tabs for indentation only and to use
spaces for alignment. This will make the code
alignment insensitive to an editor's tabwidth.
Use -spaces=false to use tabs for alignment.
3) Manually changed src/exp/parser/parser_test.go
so that it doesn't try to parse the parser's
source files using the old syntax (they have
new syntax now).
4) gofmt -w src misc test/bench
4th set of files.

* rename PORT.sh -> mkall.sh (hopefully more obvious),
change behavior: run commands by default.
* pull more constants out of #defines automatically,
instead of editing large lists by hand.
* add Recvfrom, Sendto
add os.O_EXCL.

* use 32-bit [sic] uid/gid calls (Linux)
* fix sockets on Linux
Darwin/386 works again.
Linux/386 is better but must never have worked;
there are still bugs surrounding the creation of new
threads in the runtime package.
