Hi Keith, thank you for your response. Sorry I didn't say that I saw this issue on linux/arm64. For your example above, the result on linux/arm64 is like this: go tool compile -S tmp.go 0x001c 00028 (spill.go:4) MOVD"".p(FP), R0 0x0020 00032 (spill.go:4) MOVH

It don't think it does. For instance, an int16 will be spilled to a 2-byte slot in the stack frame. Can you show us what you are seeing? This is what I tried: package main func f(p, q *int16) { x := *p y := *q g() *p = y *q = x } func g() go tool compile -S tmp.go 0x001d 00029 (tmp1.go:4) MOVQ

Indeed! Go has while loops :) for { // do some stuff if !condition { break } } instead of { // do some stuff } while condition They are identical functionally, so why bother with the second syntax? You then get into arguments about which one to use. -- Marcin On Tue, Nov 3, 2020 at 11:3

Languages often have a whole variety of loop constructs. C has for loops as well us while loops. Go adopts the principle from the Zen of python: *There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it. *It takes a minimalist approach - there is only one looping construct: the for l
