Ian Lance Taylor ea5ac5a69b compiler,runtime: pass old slice's ptr/len/cap by value to growslice
In the C calling convention, on AMD64, and probably a number of
    other architectures, a 3-word struct argument is passed on stack.
    This is less efficient than passing in three registers. Further,
    this may affect the code generation in other part of the program,
    even if the function is not actually called.
    
    Slices are common in Go and append is a common slice operation,
    which calls growslice in the growing path. To improve the code
    generation, pass the slice header's three fields as separate
    values, instead of a struct, to growslice.
    
    The drawback is that this makes the runtime implementation
    slightly diverges from the gc runtime.

See ../README.

This is the runtime support library for the Go programming language.
This library is intended for use with the Go frontend.

This library should not be stripped when it is installed.  Go code
relies on being able to look up file/line information, which comes
from the debugging info using the libbacktrace library.

The library has only been tested on GNU/Linux using glibc, and on
Solaris.  It should not be difficult to port to other operating
systems.

Directories:

go
  A copy of the Go library from http://golang.org/, with several
  changes for gccgo.

runtime
  Runtime functions, written in C, which are called directly by the
  compiler or by the library.
