On /n/sources/contrib/lucio/go there is a fresh version of my efforts. It is a bit ahead of my submissions to the Go Authors and could benefit from inspection from the Plan 9 perspective. Also, this inevitably means that there will be changes required by the code reviewers.
At this point, it ought to be possible to build the assemblers, C and Go compilers and linkers for all three architectures (386, amd64 and arm) for local use on a Plan 9/386 platform. The only build option I have tested is the default in src/cmd/mkfile: % 9fs sources % disk/mkfs -a -s /n/sources/contrib/lucio/go /n/sources/contrib/lucio/go/devproto | disk/mkext -v -d /go % cd /go/src/cmd % mk Actual installation should be left until the above succeeds. Where I am, multiple downloads are expensive and time consuming, so I can't test this repetitively, please let me know if the above procedure needs adjusting: % mk install This ought to copy the 8a, 8c, 8g and 8l executables (not in that sequence) to /go/386/bin. I have arranged for the amd64 and arm versions to work as well. Change to the appropriate directories and the mkfile will provide the necessary instructions, including installing to /go/386/bin. Nothing above is properly tested. Until I get the runtime properly constructed, I'm not sure how best to go about testing, so any contribution or suggestions here is welcome. ++L
