These temporary environment variables make it
possible to enable using SSA-generated code
for a particular function or package without
having to rebuild the compiler.
This makes it possible to start bulk testing
SSA generated code.
First, bump up the default stack size
(_StackMin in runtime/stack2.go) to something
large like 32768, because without stackmaps
we can't grow stacks.
Then run something like:
for pkg in `go list std`
do
GOGC=off GOSSAPKG=`basename $pkg` go test -a $pkg
done
When a test fails, you can re-run those tests,
selectively enabling one function after another,
until you find the one that is causing trouble.
Doing this right now yields some interesting results:
* There are several packages for which we generate
some code and whose tests pass. Yay!
* We can generate code for encoding/base64, but
tests there fail, so there's a bug to fix.
* Attempting to build the runtime yields a panic during codegen:
panic: interface conversion: ssa.Location is nil, not *ssa.LocalSlot
* The top unimplemented codegen items are (simplified):
