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 http://golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetGCPercent. 23 24 The GOGCTRACE variable controls debug output from the garbage collector. 25 Setting GOGCTRACE=1 causes the garbage collector to emit a single line to standard 26 error at each collection, summarizing the amount of memory collected and the 27 length of the pause. Setting GOGCTRACE=2 emits the same summary but also 28 repeats each collection. 29 30 The GOMAXPROCS variable limits the number of operating system threads that 31 can execute user-level Go code simultaneously. There is no limit to the number of threads 32 that can be blocked in system calls on behalf of Go code; those do not count against 33 the GOMAXPROCS limit. This package's GOMAXPROCS function queries and changes 34 the limit. 35 36 The GOTRACEBACK variable controls the amount of output generated when a Go 37 program fails due to an unrecovered panic or an unexpected runtime condition. 38 By default, a failure prints a stack trace for every extant goroutine, eliding functions 39 internal to the run-time system, and then exits with exit code 2. 40 If GOTRACEBACK=0, the per-goroutine stack traces are omitted entirely. 41 If GOTRACEBACK=1, the default behavior is used. 42 If GOTRACEBACK=2, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions. 43 If GOTRACEBACK=crash, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions, 44 and if possible the program crashes in an operating-specific manner instead of 45 exiting. For example, on Unix systems, the program raises SIGABRT to trigger a 46 core dump. 47 48 The GOARCH, GOOS, GOPATH, and GOROOT environment variables complete 49 the set of Go environment variables. They influence the building of Go programs 50 (see http://golang.org/cmd/go and http://golang.org/pkg/go/build). 51 GOARCH, GOOS, and GOROOT are recorded at compile time and made available by 52 constants or functions in this package, but they do not influence the execution 53 of the run-time system. 54 */ 55 package runtime 56 57 // Gosched yields the processor, allowing other goroutines to run. It does not 58 // suspend the current goroutine, so execution resumes automatically. 59 func Gosched() 60 61 // Goexit terminates the goroutine that calls it.

This makes x reachable again, but 121 // now without an associated finalizer. Assuming that SetFinalizer 122 // is not called again, the next time the garbage collector sees 123 // that x is unreachable, it will free x. 124 // 125 // SetFinalizer(x, nil) clears any finalizer associated with x. 126 // 127 // The argument x must be a pointer to an object allocated by 128 // calling new or by taking the address of a composite literal. 129 // The argument f must be a function that takes a single argument 130 // of x's type and can have arbitrary ignored return values. 131 // If either of these is not true, SetFinalizer aborts the program. 132 // 133 // Finalizers are run in dependency order: if A points at B, both have 134 // finalizers, and they are otherwise unreachable, only the finalizer 135 // for A runs; once A is freed, the finalizer for B can run. 136 // If a cyclic structure includes a block with a finalizer, that 137 // cycle is not guaranteed to be garbage collected and the finalizer 138 // is not guaranteed to run, because there is no ordering that 139 // respects the dependencies. 140 // 141 // The finalizer for x is scheduled to run at some arbitrary time after 142 // x becomes unreachable. 143 // There is no guarantee that finalizers will run before a program exits, 144 // so typically they are useful only for releasing non-memory resources 145 // associated with an object during a long-running program. 146 // For example, an os.File object could use a finalizer to close the 147 // associated operating system file descriptor when a program discards 148 // an os.File without calling Close, but it would be a mistake 149 // to depend on a finalizer to flush an in-memory I/O buffer such as a 150 // bufio.Writer, because the buffer would not be flushed at program exit. 151 // 152 // A single goroutine runs all finalizers for a program, sequentially. 153 // If a finalizer must run for a long time, it should do so by starting 154 // a new goroutine. 155 func SetFinalizer(x, f interface{}) 156 157 func getgoroot() string 158 159 // GOROOT returns the root of the Go tree. 160 // It uses the GOROOT environment variable, if set, 161 // or else the root used during the Go build. 162 func GOROOT() string { 163 s := getgoroot() 164 if s != "" { 165 return s 166 } 167 return defaultGoroot 168 } 169 170 // Version returns the Go tree's version string. 171 // It is either a sequence number or, when possible, 172 // a release tag like "release.2010-03-04". 173 // A trailing + indicates that the tree had local modifications 174 // at the time of the build. 175 func Version() string { 176 return theVersion 177 } 178 179 // GOOS is the running program's operating system target: 180 // one of darwin, freebsd, linux, and so on. 181 const GOOS string = theGoos 182 183 // GOARCH is the running program's architecture target: 184 // 386, amd64, or arm. 185 const GOARCH string = theGoarch
