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