     3  This is the runtime support library for the Go programming language.
     4  This library is intended for use with the Go frontend.
     5  
     6  This library should not be stripped when it is installed.  Go code
     7  relies on being able to look up file/line information, which comes
     8  from the debugging info using the libbacktrace library.
     9  
    10  The library has only been tested on GNU/Linux using glibc, and on
    11  Solaris.  It should not be difficult to port to other operating
    12  systems.

    16  go
    17    A copy of the Go library from http://golang.org/, with several
    18    changes for gccgo.
    19  
    20  runtime
    21    Runtime functions, written in C, which are called directly by the
    22    compiler or by the library.

    46  Debugging
    47  =========
    48  
    49  This describes how to test libgo when built as part of gccgo.
    50  
    51  To test a specific package, cd to the libgo build directory
    52  (TARGET/libgo) and run `make PKG/check`.  For example, `make
    53  bytes/check`.
    54  
    55  To see the exact commands that it runs, including how the compiler is
    56  invoked, run `make GOTESTFLAGS=--trace bytes/check`.  This will
    57  display the commands if the test fails.  If the test passes, the
    58  commands and other output will be visible in a file named
    59  check-testlog in a subdirectory with the name of the package being
    60  checked.  In the case of bytes/check, this will create
    61  bytes/check-testlog.
    62  
    63  To leave the test program behind, run `make GOTESTFLAGS=--keep
    64  bytes/check`.  That will leave a gotestNNNN/test directory in the
    65  libgo build directory.  In that directory you can run
    66  `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../.libs ./a.out -test.short` to run the tests.
    67  You can run specific failing tests using a -test.run option.  You can
    68  see the tests being run with the -test.v option.  You can run the
    69  program under a debugger such as gdb.
