// In the future it's possible that compiler optimizations will make these
|
|
// XxxString functions unnecessary by realizing that calls such as
|
|
// Sum64([]byte(s)) don't need to copy s. See https://golang.org/issue/2205.
|
|
// If that happens, even if we keep these functions they can be replaced with
|
|
// the trivial safe code.
|

|
|
// NOTE: The usual way of doing an unsafe string-to-[]byte conversion is:
|
|
//
|
|
// var b []byte
|
|
// bh := (*reflect.SliceHeader)(unsafe.Pointer(&b))
|

// bh.Data = (*reflect.StringHeader)(unsafe.Pointer(&s)).Data

// Unfortunately, as of Go 1.15.3 the inliner's cost model assigns a high enough
|
|
// weight to this sequence of expressions that any function that uses it will
|
|
// not be inlined. Instead, the functions below use a different unsafe
|
|
// conversion designed to minimize the inliner weight and allow both to be
|
|
// inlined. There is also a test (TestInlining) which verifies that these are
|
|
// inlined.
