When compiling expression switches, we try to optimize runs of
constants into binary searches. The ordering used isn't visible to the
application, so it's unimportant as long as we're consistent between
sorting and searching.
For strings, it's much cheaper to compare string lengths than strings
themselves, so instead of ordering strings by "si <= sj", we currently
order them by "len(si) < len(sj) || len(si) == len(sj) && si <= sj"
(i.e., the lexicographical ordering on the 2-tuple (len(s), s)).
However, it's also somewhat cheaper to compare strings for equality
(i.e., ==) than for ordering (i.e., <=). And if there were two or
three string constants of the same length in a switch statement, we
might unnecessarily emit ordering comparisons.
For example, given:
switch s {
case "", "1", "2", "3": // ordered by length then content
goto L
}
we currently compile this as:
if len(s) < 1 || len(s) == 1 && s <= "1" {
if s == "" { goto L }
else if s == "1" { goto L }
} else {
if s == "2" { goto L }
else if s == "3" { goto L }
}
This CL switches to using a 2-level binary search---first on len(s),
then on s itself---so that string ordering comparisons are only needed
when there are 4 or more strings of the same length. (4 being the
cut-off for when using binary search is actually worthwhile.)
So the above switch instead now compiles to:
if len(s) == 0 {
if s == "" { goto L }
} else if len(s) == 1 {
if s == "1" { goto L }
else if s == "2" { goto L }
else if s == "3" { goto L }
}
which is better optimized by walk and SSA. (Notably, because there are
only two distinct lengths and no more than three strings of any
particular length, this example ends up falling back to simply using
linear search.)
Test case by khr@ from CL 195138.
Fixes #33934.

Vendoring in std and cmd
========================
The Go command maintains copies of external packages needed by the
standard library in the src/vendor and src/cmd/vendor directories.
In GOPATH mode, imports of vendored packages are resolved to these
directories following normal vendor directory logic
(see golang.org/s/go15vendor).
In module mode, std and cmd are modules (defined in src/go.mod and
src/cmd/go.mod). When a package outside std or cmd is imported
by a package inside std or cmd, the import path is interpreted
as if it had a "vendor/" prefix. For example, within "crypto/tls",
an import of "golang.org/x/crypto/cryptobyte" resolves to
"vendor/golang.org/x/crypto/cryptobyte". When a package with the
same path is imported from a package outside std or cmd, it will
be resolved normally. Consequently, a binary may be built with two
copies of a package at different versions if the package is
imported normally and vendored by the standard library.
Vendored packages are internally renamed with a "vendor/" prefix
to preserve the invariant that all packages have distinct paths.
This is necessary to avoid compiler and linker conflicts. Adding
a "vendor/" prefix also maintains the invariant that standard
library packages begin with a dotless path element.
The module requirements of std and cmd do not influence version
selection in other modules. They are only considered when running
module commands like 'go get' and 'go mod vendor' from a directory
in GOROOT/src.
Maintaining vendor directories
==============================
Before updating vendor directories, ensure that module mode is enabled.
Make sure GO111MODULE=off is not set ('on' or 'auto' should work).
Requirements may be added, updated, and removed with 'go get'.
The vendor directory may be updated with 'go mod vendor'.
A typical sequence might be:
cd src
go get -d golang.org/x/net@latest
go mod tidy
go mod vendor
Use caution when passing '-u' to 'go get'. The '-u' flag updates
modules providing all transitively imported packages, not only
the module providing the target package.
Note that 'go mod vendor' only copies packages that are transitively
imported by packages in the current module. If a new package is needed,
it should be imported before running 'go mod vendor'.
