<h2 id="runtime">Runtime</h2>

<p><!-- CL 543255 -->
  The runtime now keeps type-based garbage collection metadata nearer to each
  heap object, improving the CPU performance (latency or throughput) of Go programs
  by 1&mdash;3%.
  This change also reduces the memory overhead of the majority Go programs by
  approximately 1% by deduplicating redundant metadata.
  Some programs may see a smaller improvement because this change adjusts the size
  class boundaries of the memory allocator, so some objects may be moved up a size
  class.
  <br />
  A consequence of this change is that some objects' addresses that were previously
  always aligned to a 16 byte (or higher) boundary will now only be aligned to an 8
  byte boundary.
  Some programs that use assembly instructions that require memory addresses to be
  more than 8-byte aligned and rely on the memory allocator's previous alignment behavior
  may break, but we expect such programs to be rare.
  Such programs may be built with <code>GOEXPERIMENT=noallocheaders</code> to revert
  to the old metadata layout and restore the previous alignment behavior, but package
  owners should update their assembly code to avoid the alignment assumption, as this
  workaround will be removed in a future release.

<p>
  As mentioned in the <a href="/doc/go1.20#bootstrap">Go 1.20 release notes</a>, Go 1.22 now requires
  the final point release of Go 1.20 or later for bootstrap.
  We expect that Go 1.24 will require the final point release of Go 1.22 or later for bootstrap.

      The start position (<a href="/pkg/go/types#Scope.Pos">Pos</a>)
      of the lexical environment block (<a href="/pkg/go/types#Scope">Scope</a>)
      that represents a function body has changed:
      it used to start at the opening curly brace of the function body,
      but now starts at the function's <code>func</code> token.

      The <a href="/pkg/reflect/#Value.IsZero"><code>Value.IsZero</code></a>
      method will now return true for a floating-point or complex
      negative zero, and will return true for a struct value if a
      blank field (a field named <code>_</code>) somehow has a
      non-zero value.
      These changes make <code>IsZero</code> consistent with comparing
      a value to zero using the language <code>==</code> operator.

  The <code>GOARM</code> environment variable now allows you to select whether to use software or hardware floating point.
  Previously, valid <code>GOARM</code> values were <code>5</code>, <code>6</code>, or <code>7</code>. Now those same values can
  be optionally followed by <code>,softfloat</code> or <code>,hardfloat</code> to select the floating-point implementation.
</p>
<p>
  This new option defaults to <code>softfloat</code> for version <code>5</code> and <code>hardfloat</code> for versions
  <code>6</code> and <code>7</code>.
