The http2 spec defines a magic string which initates an http2 session: "PRI * HTTP/2.0\r\n\r\nSM\r\n\r\n" It was intentionally chosen to kinda look like an HTTP request, but just different enough to break things not ready for it. This change makes Go ready for it. Notably: Go now accepts the request header (the prefix "PRI * HTTP/2.0\r\n\r\n") as a valid request, even though it doesn't have a Host header. But we now mark it as "Connection: close" and teach the Server to never read a second request from the connection once that's seen. If the http.Handler wants to deal with the upgrade, it has to hijack the request, read out the "body", compare it against "SM\r\n\r\n", and then speak http2. One of the new tests demonstrates that hijacking.

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 file). 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-source.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 https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
