doc: use "high address/low address" instead of "top/bottom"

2021-08-10T01:13:06+00:00

The current document uses the "top" and "bottom" when talking
about the address within a frame, which may easily lead to
misunderstandings. This patch directly uses "high address"
and "low address" to make the expression clearer.

doc/asm: add a section on go_asm.h, clean up go_tls.h section

2021-01-25T19:32:27+00:00

Currently the only mention of go_asm.h is buried in a confusing
section about the runtime-specific go_tls.h header. We actually want
people to use go_asm.h, so this CL adds a section with a proper
discussion of this header. As part of this, we remove the discussion
of go_asm.h from the go_tls.h section and clean up what remains.

I stumbled on this when working on the internal ABI specification. I
wanted to refer to stable documentation on how to access struct fields
from assembly and found there was none.

PPC64.

The compiler output shown in the doc is now quite old

Update it to be more like what users will actually see.

Also explain how to get literal machine code again.

cmd/asm: rename R18 to R18_PLATFORM on ARM64

2018-11-06T20:10:12+00:00

In ARM64 ABI, R18 is the "platform register", the use of which is
OS specific. The OS could choose to reserve this register. In
practice, it seems fine to use R18 on Linux but not on darwin (iOS).

Rename R18 to R18_PLATFORM to prevent accidental use. There is no
R18 usage within the standard library (besides tests, which are
updated).

Fixes #26110

cmd/compile: add softfloat support to mips64{,le}

2018-04-27T14:50:17+00:00

mips64 softfloat support is based on mips implementation and introduces
new enviroment variable GOMIPS64.

GOMIPS64 is a GOARCH=mips64{,le} specific option, for a choice between
hard-float and soft-float. Valid values are 'hardfloat' (default) and
'softfloat'. It is passed to the assembler as
'GOMIPS64_{hardfloat,softfloat}'.
