     8  // Test that if a slice access causes a fault, a deferred func
     9  // sees the most recent value of the variables it accesses.
    10  // This is true today; the role of the test is to ensure it stays true.
    11  //
    12  // In the test, memcopy is the function that will fault, during dst[i] = src[i].
    13  // The deferred func recovers from the error and returns, making memcopy
    14  // return the current value of n. If n is not being flushed to memory
    15  // after each modification, the result will be a stale value of n.
    16  //
    17  // The test is set up by mmapping a 64 kB block of memory and then
    18  // unmapping a 16 kB hole in the middle of it. Running memcopy
    19  // on the resulting slice will fault when it reaches the hole.
