Go 1.5 released as scheduled, completely farewell C code

Today, Google officially released the Go 1.5 version, which is the sixth important version of the go language. This release removes the "last remaining C code" from this update, with runtime, Compiler (compiler), and linker (connectors) written by the go language. Currently, Go 1.5 is now available for download and support for Windows, Mac OS x, and Linux platforms.

The main features are as follows:

The compiler and runtime have completely written with go, removing the C language completely, and the garbage collector can now run in parallel, significantly reducing the time of the collector to pause; Go program runs with the maximum available cores by default (Gomaxprocs set), which defaults to 1 in previous versions ; All resource libraries (repositories) now support internal packages, not just the core of go; the GO command now provides "experimental support" for external dependencies of "vendoring"; the newly added go instruction tracker performs fine-grained tracking of the program; newly added go The DOC directive (which differs from Godoc) can be used exclusively on the command line. Improved linker, which allows the distributed go package to be linked to the GO program as a shared library, can be built into a go package to an archive or shared library, and can be linked or loaded with a C program (design doc).
