This CL adjusts code referring to src/pkg to refer to src.
Immediately after submitting this CL, I will submit
a change doing 'hg mv src/pkg/* src'.
That change will be too large to review with Rietveld
but will contain only the 'hg mv'.
This CL will break the build.
The followup 'hg mv' will fix it.

The code generating the .debug_frame section emits pairs of "advance PC",
"set SP offset" pseudo-instructions. Before the fix, the PC advance comes
out before the SP setting, which means the emitted offset for a block is
actually the value at the end of the block, which is incorrect for the
block itself.
The easiest way to fix this problem is to emit the SP offset before the
PC advance.
One delicate point: the last instruction to come out is now an
"advance PC", which means that if there are padding intsructions after
the final RET, they will appear to have a non-zero offset. This is odd
but harmless because there is no legal way to have a PC in that range,
or to put it another way, if you get here the SP is certainly screwed up
so getting the wrong (virtual) frame pointer is the least of your worries.

The putpclcdelta function set the DWARF line number PC to

This code never got updated after the liblink shuffle.
Tested by hand that it works and respects GOROOT_FINAL.
The discussion in issue 6963 suggests that perhaps we should
just drop runtime-gdb.py entirely, but I am not convinced
that is true. It was in Go 1.2 and I don't see a reason not to
keep it in Go 1.3. The fact that binaries have not been emitting

There is an enormous amount of code moving around in this CL,
but the code is the same, and it is invoked in the same ways.
This CL is preparation for the new linker structure, not the new
structure itself.
The new library's definition is in include/link.h.
The main change is the use of a Link structure to hold all the
linker-relevant state, replacing the smattering of global variables.
The Link structure should both make it clearer which state must
be carried around and make it possible to parallelize more easily
later.
The main body of the linker has moved into the architecture-independent
cmd/ld directory. That includes the list of known header types, so the
distinction between Hplan9x32 and Hplan9x64 is removed (no other
header type distinguished 32- and 64-bit formats), and code for unused
formats such as ipaq kernels has been deleted.
The code being deleted from 5l, 6l, and 8l reappears in liblink or in ld.
Because multiple files are being merged in the liblink directory,
it is not possible to show the diffs nicely in hg.
The Prog and Addr structures have been unified into an
architecture-independent form and moved to link.h, where they will
be shared by all tools: the assemblers, the compilers, and the linkers.
The unification makes it possible to write architecture-independent
traversal of Prog lists, among other benefits.
The Sym structures cannot be unified: they are too fundamentally
different between the linker and the compilers. Instead, liblink defines
an LSym - a linker Sym - to be used in the Prog and Addr structures,
and the linker now refers exclusively to LSyms. The compilers will
keep using their own syms but will fill out the corresponding LSyms in
the Prog and Addr structures.
Although code from 5l, 6l, and 8l is now in a single library, the
code has been arranged so that only one architecture needs to
be linked into a particular program: 5l will not contain the code
needed for x86 instruction layout, for example.
The object file writing code in liblink/obj.c is from cmd/gc/obj.c.
Preparation for golang.org/s/go13linker work.

I would like opinions on whether this is a good idea for 1.1.
On the one hand it's a moderately important issue. On the
other hand this introduces at least the possibility of
external linker errors due to the additional relocations and
it may be better to wait.
I'm fairly confident that the behaviour is unchanged when not
using an external linker.

In order to add these, we need to be able to find references
to such types that already exist in the binary. To do that, introduce
a new linker section holding a list of the types corresponding to
arrays, chans, maps, and slices.
To offset the storage cost of this list, and to simplify the code,
remove the interface{} header from the representation of a
runtime type. It was used in early versions of the code but was
made obsolete by the kind field: a switch on kind is more efficient
than a type switch.
In the godoc binary, removing the interface{} header cuts two
words from each of about 10,000 types. Adding back the list of pointers
to array, chan, map, and slice types reintroduces one word for
each of about 500 types. On a 64-bit machine, then, this CL *removes*
a net 156 kB of read-only data from the binary.
This CL does not include the needed support for precise garbage
collection. I have created issue 4375 to track that.
This CL also does not set the 'algorithm' - specifically the equality
and copy functions - for a new array correctly, so I have unexported
ArrayOf for now. That is also part of issue 4375.

To allow these types as map keys, we must fill in
equal and hash functions in their algorithm tables.
Structs or arrays that are "just memory", like [2]int,
can and do continue to use the AMEM algorithm.
Structs or arrays that contain special values like
strings or interface values use generated functions
for both equal and hash.
The runtime helper func runtime.equal(t, x, y) bool handles
the general equality case for x == y and calls out to
the equal implementation in the algorithm table.
For short values (<= 4 struct fields or array elements),
the sequence of elementwise comparisons is inlined
instead of calling runtime.equal.

Equality on structs will require arbitrary code for type equality,
so change algorithm in type data from uint8 to table pointer.
In the process, trim top-level map structure from
104/80 bytes (64-bit/32-bit) to 24/12.
Equality on structs will require being able to call code generated
by the Go compiler, and C code has no way to access Go return
values, so change the hash and equal algorithm functions to take
a pointer to a result instead of returning the result.

The map implementation was using the C idiom of using
a pointer just past the end of its table as a limit pointer.
Unfortunately, the garbage collector sees that pointer as
pointing at the block adjacent to the map table, pinning
in memory a block that would otherwise be freed.
Fix by making limit pointer point at last valid entry, not
just past it.
