Ian Lance Taylor 75791bab05 runtime: use -fgo-c-header to build C header file
Use the new -fgo-c-header option to build a header file for the Go
    runtime code in libgo/go/runtime, and use the new header file in the C
    runtime code in libgo/runtime.  This will ensure that the Go code and C
    code share the same data structures as we convert the runtime from C to
    Go.
    
    The new file libgo/go/runtime/runtime2.go is copied from the Go 1.7
    release, and then edited to remove unnecessary data structures and
    modify others for use with libgo.
    
    The new file libgo/go/runtime/mcache.go is an initial version of the
    same files in the Go 1.7 release, and will be replaced by the Go 1.7
    file when we convert to the new memory allocator.
    
    The new file libgo/go/runtime/type.go describes the gccgo version of the
    reflection data structures, and replaces the Go 1.7 runtime file which
    describes the gc version of those structures.
    
    Using the new header file means changing a number of struct fields to
    use Go naming conventions (that is, no underscores) and to rename
    constants to have a leading underscore so that they are not exported
    from the Go package.  These names were updated in the C code.
    
    The C code was also changed to drop the thread-local variable m, as was
    done some time ago in the gc sources.  Now the m field is always
    accessed using g->m, where g is the single remaining thread-local
    variable.  This in turn required some adjustments to set g->m correctly
    in all cases.
    
    Also pass the new -fgo-compiling-runtime option when compiling the
    runtime package, although that option doesn't do anything yet.

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.
