This CL introduces the typeOff type and a lookup method of the same name that can turn a typeOff offset into an *rtype. In a typical Go binary (built with buildmode=exe, pie, c-archive, or c-shared), there is one moduledata and all typeOff values are offsets relative to firstmoduledata.types. This makes computing the pointer cheap in typical programs. With buildmode=shared (and one day, buildmode=plugin) there are multiple modules whose relative offset is determined at runtime. We identify a type in the general case by the pair of the original *rtype that references it and its typeOff value. We determine the module from the original pointer, and then use the typeOff from there to compute the final *rtype. To ensure there is only one *rtype representing each type, the runtime initializes a typemap for each module, using any identical type from an earlier module when resolving that offset. This means that types computed from an offset match the type mapped by the pointer dynamic relocations. A series of followup CLs will replace other *rtype values with typeOff (and name/*string with nameOff). For types created at runtime by reflect, type offsets are treated as global IDs and reference into a reflect offset map kept by the runtime. darwin/amd64: cmd/go: -57KB (0.6%) jujud: -557KB (0.8%) linux/amd64 PIE: cmd/go: -361KB (3.0%) jujud: -3.5MB (4.2%) For #6853.
