 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.

 Environment Variables

 The following environment variables ($name or %name%, depending on the host
 operating system) control the run-time behavior of Go programs. The meanings
 and use may change from release to release.

 The GOGC variable sets the initial garbage collection target percentage.
 A collection is triggered when the ratio of freshly allocated data to live data
 remaining after the previous collection reaches this percentage. The default
 is GOGC=100. Setting GOGC=off disables the garbage collector entirely.
 The runtime/debug package's SetGCPercent function allows changing this
 percentage at run time. See http://golang.org/pkg/runtime/debug/#SetGCPercent.

 The GODEBUG variable controls debug output from the runtime. GODEBUG value is
 a comma-separated list of name=val pairs. Supported names are:

 	allocfreetrace: setting allocfreetrace=1 causes every allocation to be
 	profiled and a stack trace printed on each object's allocation and free.

 	efence: setting efence=1 causes the allocator to run in a mode
 	where each object is allocated on a unique page and addresses are
 	never recycled.

 	gctrace: setting gctrace=1 causes the garbage collector to emit a single line to standard
 	error at each collection, summarizing the amount of memory collected and the
 	length of the pause. Setting gctrace=2 emits the same summary but also
 	repeats each collection.

 	gcdead: setting gcdead=1 causes the garbage collector to clobber all stack slots
 	that it thinks are dead.

 	invalidptr: defaults to invalidptr=1, causing the garbage collector and stack
 	copier to crash the program if an invalid pointer value (for example, 1)
 	is found in a pointer-typed location. Setting invalidptr=0 disables this check.
 	This should only be used as a temporary workaround to diagnose buggy code.
 	The real fix is to not store integers in pointer-typed locations.

 	memprofilerate: setting memprofilerate=X will update the value of runtime.MemProfileRate.
 	When set to 0 memory profiling is disabled.  Refer to the description of
 	MemProfileRate for the default value.

 	scheddetail: setting schedtrace=X and scheddetail=1 causes the scheduler to emit
 	detailed multiline info every X milliseconds, describing state of the scheduler,
 	processors, threads and goroutines.

 	schedtrace: setting schedtrace=X causes the scheduler to emit a single line to standard
 	error every X milliseconds, summarizing the scheduler state.

 	scavenge: scavenge=1 enables debugging mode of heap scavenger.

 	wbshadow: setting wbshadow=1 enables a shadow copy of the heap
 	used to detect missing write barriers at the next write to a
 	given location. If a bug can be detected in this mode it is
 	typically easy to understand, since the crash says quite
 	clearly what kind of word has missed a write barrier.
 	Setting wbshadow=2 checks the shadow copy during garbage
 	collection as well. Bugs detected at garbage collection can be
 	difficult to understand, because there is no context for what
 	the found word means. Typically you have to reproduce the
 	problem with allocfreetrace=1 in order to understand the type
 	of the badly updated word.

 	gccheckmark: setting gccheckmark=1 enables verification of the
 	garbage collector's concurrent mark phase by performing a
 	second mark pass while the world is stopped.  If the second
 	pass finds a reachable object that was not found by concurrent
 	mark, the garbage collector will panic.

 The GOMAXPROCS variable limits the number of operating system threads that
 can execute user-level Go code simultaneously. There is no limit to the number of threads
 that can be blocked in system calls on behalf of Go code; those do not count against
 the GOMAXPROCS limit. This package's GOMAXPROCS function queries and changes
 the limit.

 The GOTRACEBACK variable controls the amount of output generated when a Go
 program fails due to an unrecovered panic or an unexpected runtime condition.
 By default, a failure prints a stack trace for every extant goroutine, eliding functions
 internal to the run-time system, and then exits with exit code 2.
 If GOTRACEBACK=0, the per-goroutine stack traces are omitted entirely.
 If GOTRACEBACK=1, the default behavior is used.
 If GOTRACEBACK=2, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions.
 If GOTRACEBACK=crash, the per-goroutine stack traces include run-time functions,
 and if possible the program crashes in an operating-specific manner instead of
 exiting. For example, on Unix systems, the program raises SIGABRT to trigger a
 core dump.

 The GOARCH, GOOS, GOPATH, and GOROOT environment variables complete
 the set of Go environment variables. They influence the building of Go programs
 (see http://golang.org/cmd/go and http://golang.org/pkg/go/build).
 GOARCH, GOOS, and GOROOT are recorded at compile time and made available by
 constants or functions in this package, but they do not influence the execution
 of the run-time system.
