Hi, I have a question about runtime.Pinner: The documentation states that you can only pin an object when it’s the result of calling new, taking the address of a composite literal, or taking the address of a local variable.
At the same time, the Go language specification states that a slice created with make allocates a hidden array, and gives the example that make([]int, 50, 100) is the same as new([100]int)[0:50]. Taken together, this suggests that the following sequence should be correct: var p runtime.Pinner s := make([]int, 100) p.Pin(&s[0]) …since &s[0] can be understood as being the result of calling new. Is that intended? Also: I believe it would be good if the documentation would state that the zero value for type runtime.Pinner is ready to use.
