     6  Package runtime contains operations that interact with Go's runtime system,
     7  such as functions to control goroutines. 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.
