The new package "internal/unsafeheader" depends only on "unsafe", and
provides declarations equivalent to reflect.StringHeader and
reflect.SliceHeader but with Data fields of the proper unsafe.Pointer
type (instead of uintptr).
Unlike the types it replaces, the "internal/unsafeheader" package has
a regression test to ensure that its header types remain equivalent to
the declarations provided by the "reflect" package.
Since "internal/unsafeheader" has almost no dependencies, it can be
used in other low-level packages such as "syscall" and "reflect".
This change is based on the corresponding x/sys change in CL 231177.

Go specification says: A value x is assignable to a variable of type T if x
is a bidirectional channel value, T is a channel type, x's type V and T have
identical element types, and at least one of V or T is not a defined type.
However, the current reflection implementation is incorrect which makes
"x is assignable to T" even if type V and T are both defined type.
The current reflection implementation also mistakes the base types of two
non-defined pointer types share the same underlying type when the two

Right now we generate hash functions for all types, just in case they
are used as map keys. That's a lot of wasted effort and binary size
for types which will never be used as a map key. Instead, generate
hash functions only for types that we know are map keys.
Just doing that is a bit too simple, since maps with an interface type
as a key might have to hash any concrete key type that implements that
interface. So for that case, implement hashing of such types at
runtime (instead of with generated code). It will be slower, but only
for maps with interface types as keys, and maybe only a bit slower as
the aeshash time probably dominates the dispatch time.
Reorg where we keep the equals and hash functions. Move the hash function
from the key type to the map type, saving a field in every non-map type.
That leaves only one function in the alg structure, so get rid of that and
just keep the equal function in the type descriptor itself.
cmd/go now has 10 generated hash functions, instead of 504. Makes
cmd/go 1.0% smaller. Update #6853.
Speed on non-interface keys is unchanged. Speed on interface keys
is ~20% slower:

During a call to a reflect-generated function or method (via
makeFuncStub or methodValueCall), when should we scan the return
values?
When we're starting a reflect call, the space on the stack for the
return values is not initialized yet, as it contains whatever junk was
on the stack of the caller at the time. The return space must not be
scanned during a GC.
When we're finishing a reflect call, the return values are
initialized, and must be scanned during a GC to make sure that any
pointers in the return values are found and their referents retained.
When the GC stack walk comes across a reflect call in progress on the
stack, it needs to know whether to scan the results or not. It doesn't
know the progress of the reflect call, so it can't decide by
itself. The reflect package needs to tell it.
This CL adds another slot in the frame of makeFuncStub and
methodValueCall so we can put a boolean in there which tells the
runtime whether to scan the results or not.
This CL also adds the args length to reflectMethodValue so the
runtime can restrict its scanning to only the args section (not the
results) if the reflect package says the results aren't ready yet.
Do a delicate dance in the reflect package to set the "results are
valid" bit. We need to make sure we set the bit only after we've
copied the results back to the stack. But we must set the bit before
we drop reflect's copy of the results. Otherwise, we might have a
state where (temporarily) no one has a live copy of the results.
That's the state we were observing in issue #27695 before this CL.
The bitmap used by the runtime currently contains only the args.
(Actually, it contains all the bits, but the size is set so we use
only the args portion.) This is safe for early in a reflect call, but
unsafe late in a reflect call. The test issue27695.go demonstrates
this unsafety. We change the bitmap to always include both args
and results, and decide at runtime which portion to use.
issue27695.go only has a test for method calls. Function calls were ok
because there wasn't a safepoint between when reflect dropped its copy
of the return values and when the caller is resumed. This may change
when we introduce safepoints everywhere.
This truncate-to-only-the-args was part of CL 9888 (in 2015). That
part of the CL fixed the problem demonstrated in issue27695b.go but
introduced the problem demonstrated in issue27695.go.

value is now identical to frametype.ptrdata + frametype.gcdata.

Before CL 4281055 in 2011, the reflect package was quite different.
rtype, then called commonType, was embedded in exported structs with
names like StructType. In order to avoid accidental conversions
between pointers to these public structs, which sometimes had
identical fields, the embedded commonType fields were tagged.
In CL 4281055 the formerly public structs were unexported, and all
access was done through the Type interface. At that point the field
tags in the reflect structs were no longer useful.
In Go 1.8 the language was changed to ignore struct field tags when
converting between types. This made the field tags in the reflect
structs doubly useless.
This CL simply removes them.

We do a division by the elem type size to check if the array size would
be too large for the virtual address space. This is a silly check if the
size is 0, but the problem is that it means a division by zero and a
panic.
Since arrays of empty structs are valid in a regular program, make them
also work in reflect.
Use a separate, explicit test with struct{}{} to make sure the test for
a zero-sized type is not confused with the rest.
Fixes#20313.

When constructing a new type for an array type in ArrayOf, we don't
reset tflag to 0. All the other methods in the package, such as SliceOf,
do this already. This results in the new array type having weird issues
when being printed, such as having tflagExtraStar set when it shouldn't.
That flag removes the first char to get rid of '*', but when used
incorrectly in this case it eats the '[' character leading to broken
strings like "3]int".
This was fixed in 56752eb2 for issue #16722, but ArrayOf was missed.
Also make the XM test struct have a non-zero size as that leads to a
division by zero panic in ArrayOf.
Fixes#20311.

This CL adds a simple explanation about what means the ptrdata field of
the reflect.rtype type.
Also document that rtype needs to be kept in sync with the runtime._type
type that rtype mirrors.

The gcdata field only records ptrdata entries, not size entries.
Also fix an obsolete comment: the enforced limit on pointer maps is
now 2048 bytes, not 16 bytes.
I wasn't able to contruct a test case for this. It would require
building a type whose size is greater than 64 bytes but less than 128
bytes, with at least one pointer in first 64 bytes but no pointers
after the first 64 bytes, such that the linker arranges for the one
byte gcbits value to be immediately followed by a non-zero byte.
