It also includes the low-level type information 8 used by the reflect package; see reflect's documentation for the programmable 9 interface to the run-time type system. 10 11 Environment Variables 12 13 The following environment variables ($name or %name%, depending on the host 14 operating system) control the run-time behavior of Go programs. The meanings 15 and use may change from release to release. 16 17 The GOGC variable sets the initial garbage collection target percentage. 18 A collection is triggered when the ratio of freshly allocated data to live data 19 remaining after the previous collection reaches this percentage. The default 20 is GOGC=100. Setting GOGC=off disables the garbage collector entirely. 21 The runtime/debug package's SetGCPercent function allows changing this 22 percentage at run time. See https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetGCPercent. 23 24 The GODEBUG variable controls debugging variables within the runtime. 25 It is a comma-separated list of name=val pairs setting these named variables: 26 27 allocfreetrace: setting allocfreetrace=1 causes every allocation to be 28 profiled and a stack trace printed on each object's allocation and free. 29 30 cgocheck: setting cgocheck=0 disables all checks for packages 31 using cgo to incorrectly pass Go pointers to non-Go code. 32 Setting cgocheck=1 (the default) enables relatively cheap 33 checks that may miss some errors. Setting cgocheck=2 enables 34 expensive checks that should not miss any errors, but will 35 cause your program to run slower. 36 37 efence: setting efence=1 causes the allocator to run in a mode 38 where each object is allocated on a unique page and addresses are 39 never recycled. 40 41 gccheckmark: setting gccheckmark=1 enables verification of the 42 garbage collector's concurrent mark phase by performing a 43 second mark pass while the world is stopped. If the second 44 pass finds a reachable object that was not found by concurrent 45 mark, the garbage collector will panic. 46 47 gcpacertrace: setting gcpacertrace=1 causes the garbage collector to 48 print information about the internal state of the concurrent pacer. 49 50 gcshrinkstackoff: setting gcshrinkstackoff=1 disables moving goroutines 51 onto smaller stacks. In this mode, a goroutine's stack can only grow. 52 53 gcstackbarrieroff: setting gcstackbarrieroff=1 disables the use of stack barriers 54 that allow the garbage collector to avoid repeating a stack scan during the 55 mark termination phase. 56 57 gcstackbarrierall: setting gcstackbarrierall=1 installs stack barriers 58 in every stack frame, rather than in exponentially-spaced frames. 59 60 gcstoptheworld: setting gcstoptheworld=1 disables concurrent garbage collection, 61 making every garbage collection a stop-the-world event. Setting gcstoptheworld=2 62 also disables concurrent sweeping after the garbage collection finishes. 63 64 gctrace: setting gctrace=1 causes the garbage collector to emit a single line to standard 65 error at each collection, summarizing the amount of memory collected and the 66 length of the pause. Setting gctrace=2 emits the same summary but also 67 repeats each collection. The format of this line is subject to change. 68 Currently, it is: 69 gc # @#s #%: #+...+# ms clock, #+...+# ms cpu, #->#-># MB, # MB goal, # P 70 where the fields are as follows: 71 gc # the GC number, incremented at each GC 72 @#s time in seconds since program start 73 #% percentage of time spent in GC since program start 74 #+...+# wall-clock/CPU times for the phases of the GC 75 #->#-># MB heap size at GC start, at GC end, and live heap 76 # MB goal goal heap size 77 # P number of processors used 78 The phases are stop-the-world (STW) sweep termination, scan, 79 synchronize Ps, mark, and STW mark termination. The CPU times 80 for mark are broken down in to assist time (GC performed in 81 line with allocation), background GC time, and idle GC time. 82 If the line ends with "(forced)", this GC was forced by a 83 runtime.GC() call and all phases are STW. 84 85 memprofilerate: setting memprofilerate=X will update the value of runtime.MemProfileRate. 86 When set to 0 memory profiling is disabled. Refer to the description of 87 MemProfileRate for the default value. 88 89 invalidptr: defaults to invalidptr=1, causing the garbage collector and stack 90 copier to crash the program if an invalid pointer value (for example, 1) 91 is found in a pointer-typed location. Setting invalidptr=0 disables this check. 92 This should only be used as a temporary workaround to diagnose buggy code. 93 The real fix is to not store integers in pointer-typed locations. 94 95 sbrk: setting sbrk=1 replaces the memory allocator and garbage collector 96 with a trivial allocator that obtains memory from the operating system and 97 never reclaims any memory. 98 99 scavenge: scavenge=1 enables debugging mode of heap scavenger. 100 101 scheddetail: setting schedtrace=X and scheddetail=1 causes the scheduler to emit 102 detailed multiline info every X milliseconds, describing state of the scheduler, 103 processors, threads and goroutines. 104 105 schedtrace: setting schedtrace=X causes the scheduler to emit a single line to standard 106 error every X milliseconds, summarizing the scheduler state. 107 108 The GOMAXPROCS variable limits the number of operating system threads that 109 can execute user-level Go code simultaneously. There is no limit to the number of threads 110 that can be blocked in system calls on behalf of Go code; those do not count against 111 the GOMAXPROCS limit. This package's GOMAXPROCS function queries and changes 112 the limit. 113 114 The GOTRACEBACK variable controls the amount of output generated when a Go 115 program fails due to an unrecovered panic or an unexpected runtime condition. 116 By default, a failure prints a stack trace for the current goroutine, 117 eliding functions internal to the run-time system, and then exits with exit code 2. 118 The failure prints stack traces for all goroutines if there is no current goroutine 119 or the failure is internal to the run-time. 120 GOTRACEBACK=none omits the goroutine stack traces entirely. 121 GOTRACEBACK=single (the default) behaves as described above. 122 GOTRACEBACK=all adds stack traces for all user-created goroutines. 123 GOTRACEBACK=system is like ``all'' but adds stack frames for run-time functions 124 and shows goroutines created internally by the run-time. 125 GOTRACEBACK=crash is like ``system'' but crashes in an operating system-specific 126 manner instead of exiting. For example, on Unix systems, the crash raises 127 SIGABRT to trigger a core dump. 128 For historical reasons, the GOTRACEBACK settings 0, 1, and 2 are synonyms for 129 none, all, and system, respectively. 130 131 The GOARCH, GOOS, GOPATH, and GOROOT environment variables complete 132 the set of Go environment variables. They influence the building of Go programs 133 (see https://golang.org/cmd/go and https://golang.org/pkg/go/build). 134 GOARCH, GOOS, and GOROOT are recorded at compile time and made available by 135 constants or functions in this package, but they do not influence the execution 136 of the run-time system. 137 */ 138 package runtime 139 140 import "runtime/internal/sys" 141 142 // Caller reports file and line number information about function invocations on 143 // the calling goroutine's stack.
