The Go programming language
fefae6eed1
The old code generated for a bounds check was
CMP
JLT ok
CALL panicindex
ok:
...
The new code is (once the linker finishes with it):
CMP
JGE panic
...
panic:
CALL panicindex
which moves the calls out of line, putting more useful
code in each cache line. This matters especially in tight
loops, such as in Fannkuch. The benefit is more modest
elsewhere, but real.
From test/bench/go1, amd64:

To implement this, two new instruction forms:
JLT target // same as always
JLT $0, target // branch expected not taken
JLT $1, target // branch expected taken
The linker could also emit the prediction prefixes, but it
does not: expected taken branches are reversed so that the
expected case is not taken (as in example above), and
the default expectaton for such a jump is not taken
already.

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
