Global variable initializers like var myErr error = &myError{"msg"} have been converted to statically initialized data from the earliest days of Go: there is no init-time execution or allocation for that line of code. But if the expression is moved into an inlinable function, the static initialization no longer happens. That is, this code has always executed and allocated at init time, even after we added inlining to the compiler, which should in theory make this code equivalent to the original: func NewError(s string) error { return &myError{s} } var myErr2 = NewError("msg") This CL makes the static initialization rewriter understand inlined functions consisting of a single return statement, like in this example, so that myErr2 can be implemented as statically initialized data too, just like myErr, with no init-time execution or allocation. A real example of code that benefits from this rewrite is all globally declared errors created with errors.New, like package io var EOF = errors.New("EOF") Package io no longer has to allocate and initialize EOF each time a program starts. Another example of code that benefits is any globally declared godebug setting (using the API from CL 449504), like package http var http2server = godebug.New("http2server") These are no longer allocated and initialized at program startup either. The list of functions that are inlined into static initializers when compiling std and cmd (along with how many times each occurs) is: cmd/compile/internal/ssa.StringToAux (3) cmd/compile/internal/walk.mkmapnames (4) errors.New (360) go/ast.NewIdent (1) go/constant.MakeBool (4) go/constant.MakeInt64 (3) image.NewUniform (4) image/color.ModelFunc (11) internal/godebug.New (12) vendor/golang.org/x/text/unicode/bidi.newBidiTrie (1) vendor/golang.org/x/text/unicode/norm.newNfcTrie (1) vendor/golang.org/x/text/unicode/norm.newNfkcTrie (1) For the cmd/go binary, this CL cuts the number of init-time allocations from about 1920 to about 1620 (a 15% reduction). The total executable code footprint of init functions is reduced by 24kB, from 137kB to 113kB (an 18% reduction). The overall binary size is reduced by 45kB, from 15.335MB to 15.290MB (a 0.3% reduction). (The binary size savings is larger than the executable code savings because every byte of executable code also requires corresponding runtime tables for unwinding, source-line mapping, and so on.) Also merge test/sinit_run.go, which had stopped testing anything at all as of CL 161337 (Feb 2019) and initempty.go into a new test noinit.go. Fixes #30820.
