It is fundamentally unsafe to grow the stack once someone
has made a call to syscall.Syscall. That function takes 6 uintptr
arguments, but depending on the call some are pointers.
In fact, some might be pointers to stack values, and we don't know which.
That makes it impossible to copy the stack somewhere else.
Since we want to delete all the stack splitting code, relying only
on stack copying, make sure that Syscall never needs to split the stack.
The only thing Syscall does is:
call entersyscall
make the system call
call exitsyscall
As long as we make sure that entersyscall and exitsyscall
can live in the nosplit region, they won't ask for more stack.
Do this by making entersyscall and exitsyscall set up the
stack guard so that any call to a function with a split check
will cause a crash. Then move non-essential slow-path
work onto the m stack using onM and mark the rest of the
work nosplit. The linker will verify that the chain of nosplits
fits in the total nosplit budget.

README
This is the source code repository for the Go programming language.
For documentation about how to install and use Go,
visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html
in your web browser.
After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install-source.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install/source.
Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed
under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
