test/codegen: mention in README that tests only run on Linux without -all_codegen
This took me a while to figure out. The relevant code is in test/run.go (note the "linux" hard-coded strings): var arch, subarch, os string switch { case archspec[2] != "": // 3 components: "linux/386/sse2" os, arch, subarch = archspec[0], archspec[1][1:], archspec[2][1:] case archspec[1] != "": // 2 components: "386/sse2" os, arch, subarch = "linux", archspec[0], archspec[1][1:] default: // 1 component: "386" os, arch, subarch = "linux", archspec[0], "" if arch == "wasm" { os = "js" } } Change-Id: I92ba280025d2072e17532a5e43cf1d676789c167 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/222819 Reviewed-by: Keith Randall <khr@golang.org>
