Subject: runtime: add GODEBUG for stack barriers at every frame
X-Git-Tag: go1.6beta1~1226
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3bfc9df21aefe486de2c8a620a36fac178650a8c;p=gostls13.git

runtime: add GODEBUG for stack barriers at every frame

Currently enabling the debugging mode where stack barriers are
installed at every frame requires recompiling the runtime. However,
this is potentially useful for field debugging and for runtime tests,
so make this mode a GODEBUG.

Updates #12238.
