var (
	SlicePtrOffset int64

	SliceCapOffset int64

	SliceSize  int64
	StringSize int64
)

Slices in the runtime are represented by three components: 

type slice struct {
	ptr unsafe.Pointer
	len int
	cap int
}

Strings in the runtime are represented by two components: 

type string struct {
	ptr unsafe.Pointer
	len int
}

These variables are the offsets of fields and sizes of these structs.

var Types [NTYPE]*Type

Types stores pointers to predeclared named types.

It also stores pointers to several special types:

  • Types[TANY] is the placeholder "any" type recognized by SubstArgTypes.
  • Types[TBLANK] represents the blank variable's type.
  • Types[TINTER] is the canonical "interface{}" type.
  • Types[TNIL] represents the predeclared "nil" value's type.
  • Types[TUNSAFEPTR] is package unsafe's Pointer type.

UntypedTypes maps from a constant.Kind to its untyped Type representation.

Functions

func AlgType added in go1.17 

func AlgType(t *Type) (AlgKind, *Type)

AlgType returns the AlgKind used for comparing and hashing Type t. If it returns ANOEQ, it also returns the component type of t that makes it incomparable.

func AllowsGoVersion added in go1.17 

func AllowsGoVersion(major, minor int) bool

AllowsGoVersion reports whether local package is allowed to use Go version major.minor.

func CalcSize added in go1.17 

func CalcSize(t *Type)

CalcSize calculates and stores the size and alignment for t. If CalcSizeDisabled is set, and the size/alignment have not already been calculated, it calls Fatal. This is used to prevent data races in the back end.

func CalcStructSize added in go1.17 

func CalcStructSize(t *Type)

CalcStructSize calculates the size of t, filling in t.width, t.align, t.intRegs, and t.floatRegs, even if size calculation is otherwise disabled.

func CheckSize added in go1.17 

func CheckSize(t *Type)

func DeferCheckSize added in go1.17 

func DeferCheckSize()

func Identical added in go1.12 

func Identical(t1, t2 *Type) bool

Identical reports whether t1 and t2 are identical types, following the spec rules. Receiver parameter types are ignored. Named (defined) types are only equal if they are pointer-equal - i.e. there must be a unique types.Type for each specific named type. Also, a type containing a shape type is considered identical to another type (shape or not) if their underlying types are the same, or they are both pointers.

func IdenticalIgnoreTags added in go1.12 

func IdenticalIgnoreTags(t1, t2 *Type) bool

IdenticalIgnoreTags is like Identical, but it ignores struct tags for struct identity.

func IdenticalStrict added in go1.18 

func IdenticalStrict(t1, t2 *Type) bool

IdenticalStrict is like Identical, but matches types exactly, without the exception for shapes.

func InitTypes added in go1.18 

func InitTypes(defTypeName func(sym *Sym, typ *Type) Object)

func InternString 

func InternString(b []byte) string

func IsExported added in go1.11 

func IsExported(name string) bool

IsExported reports whether name is an exported Go symbol (that is, whether it begins with an upper-case letter).

func IsInterfaceMethod added in go1.17 

func IsInterfaceMethod(f *Type) bool

IsInterfaceMethod reports whether (field) m is an interface method. Such methods have the special receiver type types.FakeRecvType().

func IsMethodApplicable added in go1.17 

func IsMethodApplicable(t *Type, m *Field) bool

IsMethodApplicable reports whether method m can be called on a value of type t. This is necessary because we compute a single method set for both T and *T, but some *T methods are not applicable to T receivers.

func IsNoInstrumentPkg added in go1.21.0 

func IsNoInstrumentPkg(p *Pkg) bool

IsNoInstrumentPkg reports whether p is a package that should not be instrumented.

func IsNoRacePkg added in go1.21.0

IsPaddedField reports whether the i'th field of struct type t is followed by padding.

func IsReflexive added in go1.17 

func IsReflexive(t *Type) bool

IsReflexive reports whether t has a reflexive equality operator. That is, if x==x for all x of type t.

func ParseLangFlag added in go1.17 

func ParseLangFlag()

func PkgMap added in go1.22.0 

func PkgMap() map[string]*Pkg

func PtrDataSize added in go1.17 

func PtrDataSize(t *Type) int64

PtrDataSize is only defined for actual Go types. It's an error to use it on compiler-internal types (e.g., TSSA, TRESULTS).

func ReflectSymName added in go1.22.0 

func ReflectSymName(s *Sym) string

ReflectSymName returns the name of s if it's in package "reflect"; otherwise it returns "".

type Slice struct {
	Elem *Type // element type
}

type Struct 

type Struct struct {

	// Maps have three associated internal structs (see struct MapType).

	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

type Sym 

type Sym struct {
	Linkname string // link name

	Pkg  *Pkg
	Name string // object name

	// The unique ONAME, OTYPE, OPACK, or OLITERAL node that this symbol is
	// bound to within the current scope. (Most parts of the compiler should
	// prefer passing the Node directly, rather than relying on this field.)
	//
	// Deprecated: New code should avoid depending on Sym.Def. Add
	// mdempsky@ as a reviewer for any CLs involving Sym.Def.
	Def Object
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Sym represents an object name in a segmented (pkg, name) namespace. Most commonly, this is a Go identifier naming an object declared within a package, but Syms are also used to name internal synthesized objects.

As an exception, field and method names that are exported use the Sym associated with localpkg instead of the package that declared them. This allows using Sym pointer equality to test for Go identifier uniqueness when handling selector expressions.

Ideally, Sym should be used for representing Go language constructs, while cmd/internal/obj.LSym is used for representing emitted artifacts.

NOTE: In practice, things can be messier than the description above for various reasons (historical, convenience). 

var BlankSym *Sym

BlankSym is the blank (_) symbol.

func TypeSym added in go1.17

func (*Sym) Linksym deprecated 

func (sym *Sym) Linksym() *obj.LSym

func (*Sym) LinksymABI deprecated added in go1.17 

func (sym *Sym) LinksymABI(abi obj.ABI) *obj.LSym

Deprecated: This method should not be used directly. Instead, use a higher-level abstraction that directly returns the linker symbol for a named object. For example, (*ir.Name).LinksymABI(abi) instead of (*ir.Name).Sym().LinksymABI(abi).

type Tuple 

type Tuple struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

type Type 

type Type struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Type represents a Go type.

There may be multiple unnamed types with identical structure. However, there must be a unique Type object for each unique named (defined) type. After noding, a package-level type can be looked up by building its unique symbol sym (sym = package.Lookup(name)) and checking sym.Def. If sym.Def is non-nil, the type already exists at package scope and is available at sym.Def.(*ir.Name).Type(). Local types (which may have the same name as a package-level type) are distinguished by their vargen, which is embedded in their symbol name.

NewNamed returns a new named type for the given type name. obj should be an ir.Name. The new type is incomplete (marked as TFORW kind), and the underlying type should be set later via SetUnderlying(). References to the type are maintained until the type is filled in, so those references can be updated when the type is complete.
