crypto/x509: make '-gcflags=all=-d=checkptr' flag work
Replace
buf := [HUGE_CONST]*T)(unsafe.Pointer(p))[:]
with
buf := [HUGE_CONST]*T)(unsafe.Pointer(p))[:n:n]
Pointer p points to n of T elements. New unsafe pointer conversion
logic verifies that both first and last elements point into the
same Go variable. And this change adjusts all code to comply with
this rule.
Verified by running
go test -a -short -gcflags=all=-d=checkptr crypto/x509
The test does not fail even with original version of this code. I
suspect it is because all variables I changed live outside of Go
memory. But I am just guessing, I don't really know how pointer
checker works.
