Documentation

Overview

Package runtime contains operations that interact with Go's runtime system, such as functions to control goroutines. It also includes the low-level type information used by the reflect package; see reflect's documentation for the programmable interface to the run-time type system.

Constants

View Source
const GOARCH string = theGoarch

GOARCH is the Go tree's architecture target: 386, amd64, or arm.

View Source
const GOOS string = theGoos

GOOS is the Go tree's operating system target: one of darwin, freebsd, linux, and so on.

Variables

View Source
var MemProfileRate int = 512 * 1024

MemProfileRate controls the fraction of memory allocations that are recorded and reported in the memory profile. The profiler aims to sample an average of one allocation per MemProfileRate bytes allocated.

To include every allocated block in the profile, set MemProfileRate to 1. To turn off profiling entirely, set MemProfileRate to 0.

The tools that process the memory profiles assume that the profile rate is constant across the lifetime of the program and equal to the current value. Programs that change the memory profiling rate should do so just once, as early as possible in the execution of the program (for example, at the beginning of main).

Functions

func Alloc

func Alloc(uintptr) *byte

Alloc allocates a block of the given size. FOR TESTING AND DEBUGGING ONLY.

func Breakpoint

func Breakpoint()

Breakpoint() executes a breakpoint trap.

func CPUProfile

func CPUProfile() []byte

CPUProfile returns the next chunk of binary CPU profiling stack trace data, blocking until data is available. If profiling is turned off and all the profile data accumulated while it was on has been returned, CPUProfile returns nil. The caller must save the returned data before calling CPUProfile again. Most clients should use the runtime/pprof package or the testing package's -test.cpuprofile flag instead of calling CPUProfile directly.

func Caller

func Caller(skip int) (pc uintptr, file string, line int, ok bool)

Caller reports file and line number information about function invocations on the calling goroutine's stack. The argument skip is the number of stack frames to ascend, with 0 identifying the the caller of Caller. The return values report the program counter, file name, and line number within the file of the corresponding call. The boolean ok is false if it was not possible to recover the information.

func Callers

func Callers(skip int, pc []uintptr) int

Callers fills the slice pc with the program counters of function invocations on the calling goroutine's stack. The argument skip is the number of stack frames to skip before recording in pc, with 0 starting at the caller of Caller. It returns the number of entries written to pc.

func Cgocalls

func Cgocalls() int64

Cgocalls returns the number of cgo calls made by the current process.

func Free

func Free(*byte)

Free frees the block starting at the given pointer. FOR TESTING AND DEBUGGING ONLY.

func GC

func GC()

GC runs a garbage collection.

func GOMAXPROCS

func GOMAXPROCS(n int) int

GOMAXPROCS sets the maximum number of CPUs that can be executing simultaneously and returns the previous setting. If n < 1, it does not change the current setting. This call will go away when the scheduler improves.

func GOROOT

func GOROOT() string

GOROOT returns the root of the Go tree. It uses the GOROOT environment variable, if set, or else the root used during the Go build.

func Goexit

func Goexit()

Goexit terminates the goroutine that calls it. No other goroutine is affected. Goexit runs all deferred calls before terminating the goroutine.

func Goroutines

func Goroutines() int32

Goroutines returns the number of goroutines that currently exist.

func Gosched

func Gosched()

Gosched yields the processor, allowing other goroutines to run. It does not suspend the current goroutine, so execution resumes automatically.

func LockOSThread

func LockOSThread()

LockOSThread wires the calling goroutine to its current operating system thread. Until the calling goroutine exits or calls UnlockOSThread, it will always execute in that thread, and no other goroutine can. LockOSThread cannot be used during init functions.

func Lookup

func Lookup(*byte) (*byte, uintptr)

Lookup returns the base and size of the block containing the given pointer. FOR TESTING AND DEBUGGING ONLY.

func MemProfile

func MemProfile(p []MemProfileRecord, inuseZero bool) (n int, ok bool)

MemProfile returns n, the number of records in the current memory profile. If len(p) >= n, MemProfile copies the profile into p and returns n, true. If len(p) < n, MemProfile does not change p and returns n, false.

If inuseZero is true, the profile includes allocation records where r.AllocBytes > 0 but r.AllocBytes == r.FreeBytes. These are sites where memory was allocated, but it has all been released back to the runtime. Most clients should use the runtime/pprof package or the testing package's -test.memprofile flag instead of calling MemProfile directly.

func Semacquire

func Semacquire(s *uint32)

Semacquire waits until *s > 0 and then atomically decrements it. It is intended as a simple sleep primitive for use by the synchronization library and should not be used directly.

func Semrelease

func Semrelease(s *uint32)

Semrelease atomically increments *s and notifies a waiting goroutine if one is blocked in Semacquire. It is intended as a simple wakeup primitive for use by the synchronization library and should not be used directly.

func SetCPUProfileRate

func SetCPUProfileRate(hz int)

SetCPUProfileRate sets the CPU profiling rate to hz samples per second. If hz <= 0, SetCPUProfileRate turns off profiling. If the profiler is on, the rate cannot be changed without first turning it off. Most clients should use the runtime/pprof package or the testing package's -test.cpuprofile flag instead of calling SetCPUProfileRate directly.

func SetFinalizer

func SetFinalizer(x, f interface{})

SetFinalizer sets the finalizer associated with x to f. When the garbage collector finds an unreachable block with an associated finalizer, it clears the association and runs f(x) in a separate goroutine. This makes x reachable again, but now without an associated finalizer. Assuming that SetFinalizer is not called again, the next time the garbage collector sees that x is unreachable, it will free x.

SetFinalizer(x, nil) clears any finalizer associated with x.

The argument x must be a pointer to an object allocated by calling new or by taking the address of a composite literal. The argument f must be a function that takes a single argument of x's type and returns no arguments. If either of these is not true, SetFinalizer aborts the program.

Finalizers are run in dependency order: if A points at B, both have finalizers, and they are otherwise unreachable, only the finalizer for A runs; once A is freed, the finalizer for B can run. If a cyclic structure includes a block with a finalizer, that cycle is not guaranteed to be garbage collected and the finalizer is not guaranteed to run, because there is no ordering that respects the dependencies.

The finalizer for x is scheduled to run at some arbitrary time after x becomes unreachable. There is no guarantee that finalizers will run before a program exits, so typically they are useful only for releasing non-memory resources associated with an object during a long-running program. For example, an os.File object could use a finalizer to close the associated operating system file descriptor when a program discards an os.File without calling Close, but it would be a mistake to depend on a finalizer to flush an in-memory I/O buffer such as a bufio.Writer, because the buffer would not be flushed at program exit.

A single goroutine runs all finalizers for a program, sequentially. If a finalizer must run for a long time, it should do so by starting a new goroutine.

TODO(rsc): allow f to have (ignored) return values

func Siginit

func Siginit()

Siginit enables receipt of signals via Sigrecv. It should typically be called during initialization.

func Signame

func Signame(sig int32) string

Signame returns a string describing the signal, or "" if the signal is unknown.

func Sigrecv

func Sigrecv() uint32

Sigrecv returns a bitmask of signals that have arrived since the last call to Sigrecv. It blocks until at least one signal arrives.

func UnlockOSThread

func UnlockOSThread()

UnlockOSThread unwires the calling goroutine from its fixed operating system thread. If the calling goroutine has not called LockOSThread, UnlockOSThread is a no-op.

func UpdateMemStats

func UpdateMemStats()

UpdateMemStats brings MemStats up to date.

func Version

func Version() string

Version returns the Go tree's version string. It is either a sequence number or, when possible, a release tag like "release.2010-03-04". A trailing + indicates that the tree had local modifications at the time of the build.
