32 // The gccgo itab structure is different than the gc one.
34 // Both gccgo and gc represent empty interfaces the same way:
35 // a two field struct, where the first field points to a type descriptor
36 // (a *_type) and the second field is the data pointer.
38 // Non-empty interfaces are also two-field structs, and the second
39 // field is the data pointer. However, for gccgo, the first field, the
40 // itab field, is different. The itab field points to the interface
41 // method table, which is the implemention of a specific interface
42 // type for a specific dynamic non-interface type. An interface
43 // method table is a list of pointer values. The first pointer is the
44 // type descriptor (a *_type) for the dynamic type. The subsequent
45 // pointers are pointers to function code, which implement the methods
46 // required by the interface. The pointers are sorted by name.
48 // The method pointers in the itab are C function pointers, not Go
49 // function pointers; they may be called directly, and they have no
50 // closures. The receiver is always passed as a pointer, and it is
51 // always the same pointer stored in the interface value. A value
52 // method starts by copying the receiver value out of the pointer into
53 // a local variable.
55 // A method call on an interface value is by definition calling a
56 // method at a known index m in the list of methods. Given a non-empty
57 // interface value i, the call i.m(args) looks like
58 // i.itab[m+1](i.iface, args)
60 // Both an empty interface and a non-empty interface have a data
61 // pointer field. The meaning of this field is determined by the
62 // kindDirectIface bit in the `kind` field of the type descriptor of
63 // the value stored in the interface. If kindDirectIface is set, then
64 // the data pointer field in the interface value is exactly the value
65 // stored in the interface. Otherwise, the data pointer field is a
66 // pointer to memory that holds the value. It follows from this that
67 // kindDirectIface can only be set for a type whose representation is
68 // simply a pointer. In the current gccgo implementation, this is set
69 // only for pointer types (including unsafe.Pointer). In the future it
70 // could also be set for other types: channels, maps, functions,
71 // single-field structs and single-element arrays whose single field
72 // is simply a pointer.
74 // For a nil interface value both fields in the interface struct are nil.
