Go语言以编译速度快闻名于码农界。这缘于Go在设计之初就选择抛弃其祖辈C语言的头文件包含机制，选择了以包(package)作为基本编译单元。Go语言的这种以包为基本构建单元的构建模型使得依赖分析变得十分简单，避免了C语言那种通过头文件分析依赖的巨大开销。在我的《Go语言精进之路》一书中，我也给出了Go编译速度快的三点具体原因，包括：

Go要求每个源文件在开头处显式地列出所有依赖的包导入，这样Go编译器不必读取和处理整个文件就可以确定其依赖的包列表；
Go要求包之间不能存在循环依赖，这样一个包的依赖关系便形成了一张有向无环图。由于无环，包可以被单独编译，也可以并行编译；
已编译的Go包对应的目标文件(file_name.o或package_name.a)中不仅记录了该包本身的导出符号信息，还记录了其所依赖包的导出符号信息。这样，Go编译器在编译某包P时，针对P依赖的每个包导入(比如：导入包Q)，只需读取一个目标文件即可（比如：Q包编译成的目标文件，该目标文件中已经包含了Q包的依赖包的导出信息），而无需再读取其他文件中的信息了。

不过近期有读者问到：Go是否支持增量构建(incremental build)？这是一个好问题，书中并未提到这方面内容。但语言编译器编译速度再快，如果没有增量构建，构建大型代码工程的时间也不会短。那么Go是否支持增量构建呢？在这篇文章中，我就来告诉你答案。

1. 什么是增量构建？

提到构建(build)，我们通常所指的是静态编译型语言，比如：C、Go、Java等。Python等动态语言不需要构建，直接用解释器run即可。每种静态编译型编程语言通常都有自己的编译单元，比如Go的编译单元为一个package，c/c++的编译单元是一个c/c++源文件，java则以class为编译单元等。静态语言的构建就是将编译单元的源码编译为对应的中间目标文件(.o/.a/.class)，然后将这些目标文件通过链接器链接在一起形成最终可执行文件的过程。不过Java除外，java在编译过程没有链接环节，jvm加载class文件时会有一个链接过程。

那么问题来了：每次项目构建，项目中的所有源文件都要被重新编译一遍而形成新的中间目标文件吗？如果我只改动了一个源文件中的几行代码，项目中的其他源文件也要跟着重新编译一遍么？我们显然不希望这样浪费算力、浪费开发者时间的事情发生！

为了避免这样的事情发生，“增量构建”被提了出来。简单来说就是每次构建仅重新编译变动了的编译单元以及对这些变动的编译单元有依赖的编译单元的源码！

上图展示了一个项目的编译单元的依赖关系。当开发人员修改了编译单元C的源码后，如果该项目支持增量编译，那么再次构建这个项目时，仅变动的编译单元C的源码以及直接依赖C的B、间接依赖C的A会被重新编译，而D、E两个编译单元不会被重新编译，其中间目标文件会被链接器重用。

对增量编译的支持，有两种策略：一种是编程语言的编译器自身就支持，比如Rust。另外一种则是语言自身编译器不支持，需要通过第三方项目构建管理工具协助实现，最典型的就是C/C++与Make/CMake的组合。

那么Go语言的编译器go compiler(gc)是否本身就支持增量编译呢？是否需要通过外部项目构建管理工具协助呢？我们继续往下看。

2. 通过示例看Go是否支持增量构建

Go语言提供了统一的go工具链，在这个工具链中用于构建的命令只有一个，那就是go build。下面我们就通过一系列实例来验证一下Go是否原生支持增量构建。

该示例的项目结构如下：

demo1/
├── go.mod
├── main.go
├── pkg1/
│   └── pkg1.go
└── pkg2/
    └── pkg2.go

a) 首次构建

在这个项目中，顶层的module为demo1，main包依赖pkg1包与pkg2包。我们先通过go build命令对该项目做首次构建，我们通过命令行参数-x -v输出构建的详细日志，以便于我们分析：

$go build -x -v

通过go build命令输出的日志我们看到：go build并没有重新编译各个包中的源文件，而是直接使用上一次构建缓存在cache中的demo1、demo1/pkg1和demo1/pkg2进行链接并输出最终可执行文件。初步判断，Go编译器是可以识别出项目中的源文件是否发生了改变并决定是否对其重新编译的。

c) 新增pkg3

我们为demo1新增pkg3，并在main.go中调用pkg3包中的函数，相当于建立了一个对pkg3的依赖，然后我们再来build一下该项目：

$go build -x -v

我们看到Go只是编译了新增的pkg3以及依赖pkg3的main.go，pkg1和pkg2包并未被重新编译，而是直接使用了缓存在gocache中的中间目标文件。

d) 重新编译单个变更的源文件还是重新编译整个包？

如果一个go package包含多个源文件，当某一个源文件发生内容变化时，go编译器是只会编译该源文件还是整个包呢？我们来验证一下。

我们为pkg3添加另外一个源文件pkg3_1.go，然后做一次构建。之后再修改pkg3_1.go，再做构建：

我们看到：虽然只修改了pkg3包下面的源文件pkg3_1.go，但go build还是会将整个包的所有源文件都重新编译一次。依赖pkg3包的main.go也会被随之重新编译。就此可以证实，Go的增量编译是以Go包为基本单位的，而不是以单个源文件为单位的。这与go工具缓存在gocache中的中间目标文件(pkg.a)以包为单位的是一致的。

e) 当间接依赖的包发生了变动

前面的示例展示的都是直接依赖包发生变动后，增量构建涵盖的编译单元范畴。如果某个包的间接依赖包发生变化，该包是否会参与增量构建呢？答案是肯定的。我们继续用示例来证明一下。

我们为该demo1项目增加pkg4包，并使得pkg3依赖pkg4。这样就会出现main.go直接依赖pkg3包，间接依赖pkg4包的情况。我们在添加完pkg4包后，进行一次构建。之后修改pkg4包的部分内容，然后再执行构建，其输出日志如下：

我们看到：pkg4包修改后，无论是直接依赖pkg4的包，还是间接依赖pkg4的包都会在下次增量构建时被重新编译。

3. 小结

由上面的示例我们看到：Go编译器是原生支持增量构建的，无需第三方构建管理工具的辅助。Go的增量构建是建立在Go 1.10引入的build cache机制的基础上的。Go的增量构建以Go包为单位，当Go包中的任一源文件发生变化时，Go都会对其进行重新构建，并且会连带构建所有直接或间接依赖该包的Go包。

针对大型数组的迭代，for range真的比经典for loop慢吗？

三月 19, 2022

本文永久链接 – https://tonybai.com/2022/03/19/for-range-vs-classic-for-loop-when-iterating-large-array

Go语言推崇“一件事情仅有一个作法”！比如：Go仅保留一类循环控制语句，那就是经典版的for loop：

for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
    ... ...
}

而像C语言支持的while、do…while等循环控制语句都被排除在Go简洁的语法之外。但为了方便Go开发者对复合数据类型的迭代，比如：数组、切片、channel以及map等，Go提供了一个变种for range loop，甚至对于map、channel进行遍历，仅能使用for range loop，经典版for loop根本不支持。

不过for range 带来了方便的同时，也给Go初学者带来了一些烦恼，比如：for range迭代复合类型变量时就有一些常见的且十分容易掉入的“坑”，这些“坑”我在《Go语言第一课》中有全面详细的讲解。这里为了给后面的内容做铺垫，只提一个for range的坑，那就是参与循环的是range表达式的副本。

我们来看一个专栏中的例子：

func main() {
    var a = [5]int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
    var r [5]int

    fmt.Println("original a =", a)

    for i, v := range a {
        if i == 0 {
            a[1] = 12
            a[2] = 13
        }
        r[i] = v
    }

    fmt.Println("after for range loop, r =", r)
    fmt.Println("after for range loop, a =", a)
}

大家来猜猜这段代码会输出什么结果？你是不是觉得这段代码会输出如下结果：

original a = [1 2 3 4 5]
after for range loop, r = [1 12 13 4 5]
after for range loop, a = [1 12 13 4 5]

但实际运行该程序的输出结果却是：

original a = [1 2 3 4 5]
after for range loop, r = [1 2 3 4 5]
after for range loop, a = [1 12 13 4 5]

我们原以为在第一次迭代过程，也就是i = 0时，我们对a的修改 (a[1] =12,a[2] = 13) 会在第二次、第三次迭代中被v取出，但从结果来看，v 取出的依旧是a被修改前的值：2和3。

为什么会是这种情况呢？原因就是参与for range循环的是range表达式的副本。也就是说，在上面这个例子中，真正参与循环的是a的副本，而不是真正的a。

为了方便你理解，我们将上面的例子中的for range循环，用一个等价的伪代码形式重写一下：

for i, v := range a' { //a'是a的一个值拷贝
    if i == 0 {
        a[1] = 12
        a[2] = 13
    }
    r[i] = v
}

现在真相终于揭开了：这个例子中，每次迭代的都是从数组a的值拷贝a’中得到的元素。a’是Go临时分配的连续字节序列，与a完全不是一块内存区域。因此无论a被如何修改，它参与循环的副本a’依旧保持原值，因此v从a’中取出的仍旧是a的原值，而不是修改后的值。

好了，问题来了(来自专栏的一位童鞋的留言)！

这位童鞋的核心问题就一个：对于大型数组，由于参与for range的是该数组的拷贝，那么使用for range是不是会比经典for loop更耗资源且性能更差？

我们通过benchmark例子来验证一下：针对大型数组，for range是不是一定就比经典for loop跑得更慢？我们先看第一个例子：

// benchmark1_test.go

package main

import "testing"

func BenchmarkClassicForLoopIntArray(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]int
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr); j++ {
            arr[j] = j
        }
    }
}

func BenchmarkForRangeIntArray(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]int
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j] = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}

在这个例子中，我们分别用for loop与for range对一个拥有10w个int类型元素的数组进行遍历，我们看看benchmark的结果：

// Go 1.18rc1, MacOS
$go test -bench . benchmark1_test.go
goos: darwin
goarch: amd64
cpu: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8257U CPU @ 1.40GHz
BenchmarkClassicForLoopIntArray-8          22080         55124 ns/op           0 B/op          0 allocs/op
BenchmarkForRangeIntArray-8                34808         34433 ns/op           0 B/op          0 allocs/op
PASS
ok      command-line-arguments  3.321s

从输出结果我们看到：for range loop非但未受到large array拷贝操作的影响，其性能居然比for range loop的性能还要好，这显然是在编译器层面(通常是静态单一赋值，即SSA环节)做了优化的结果。

我们关闭优化开关，再运行一下压测：

$go test -c -gcflags '-N -l' .
$./demo.test -test.bench .
goos: darwin
goarch: amd64
pkg: demo
cpu: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8257U CPU @ 1.40GHz
BenchmarkClassicForLoopIntArray-8           6248        187773 ns/op           0 B/op          0 allocs/op
BenchmarkForRangeIntArray-8                 4768        246512 ns/op           0 B/op          0 allocs/op
PASS

我们看到：在没有优化的情况下，两种loop的性能都大幅下降，并且for range下降更多，性能显著不如经典for loop。你可以对比一下BenchmarkForRangeIntArray函数在正常优化(go tool compile -S xxx.go)以及关闭优化时(go tool compile -S -N -l)的汇编代码片段，你会发现关闭优化后，汇编代码使用了很多中间变量存储中间结果，而优化后的代码则消除了这些中间状态。

那么接下来你可能会提出这样一个问题：是不是for range迭代任何元素类型的大型数组，其性能都不比经典for loop差呢？我们来看一个对结构体数组遍历的例子：

// benchmark3_test.go
package main

import "testing"

type U5 struct {
    a, b, c, d, e int
}
type U4 struct {
    a, b, c, d int
}
type U3 struct {
    b, c, d int
}
type U2 struct {
    c, d int
}
type U1 struct {
    d int
}

func BenchmarkClassicForLoopLargeStructArrayU5(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U5
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr)-1; j++ {
            arr[j].d = j
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkClassicForLoopLargeStructArrayU4(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U4
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr)-1; j++ {
            arr[j].d = j
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkClassicForLoopLargeStructArrayU3(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U3
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr)-1; j++ {
            arr[j].d = j
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkClassicForLoopLargeStructArrayU2(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U2
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr)-1; j++ {
            arr[j].d = j
        }
    }
}

func BenchmarkClassicForLoopLargeStructArrayU1(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U1
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j := 0; j < len(arr)-1; j++ {
            arr[j].d = j
        }
    }
}

func BenchmarkForRangeLargeStructArrayU5(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U5
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j].d = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkForRangeLargeStructArrayU4(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U4
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j].d = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}

func BenchmarkForRangeLargeStructArrayU3(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U3
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j].d = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkForRangeLargeStructArrayU2(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U2
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j].d = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}
func BenchmarkForRangeLargeStructArrayU1(b *testing.B) {
    b.ReportAllocs()
    var arr [100000]U1
    for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
        for j, v := range arr {
            arr[j].d = j
            _ = v
        }
    }
}

在这个例子中，我们定义了5种结构体：U1~U5，它们的不同之处就在于包含的int类型字段的个数不同。我们分别用经典for loop与for range loop对以这些类型为元素的大型数组进行遍历，看看结果如何：

PASS
ok      command-line-arguments  15.907s

我们看到一个奇怪的现象：无论是哪种结构体类型，经典for loop遍历的性能都是一样的，但for range的遍历性能却会随着结构体字段数量的增多而下降。

带着疑惑，我找到了与这个问题有关的一个issue：cmd/compile: optimize large structs，这个issue大致是说对于包含特定数量字段的结构体类型，目前是unSSAable，如果不能SSA，那么就无法通过SSA优化，这也是出现上述benchmark结果的重要原因。

在Go中，几乎所有使用数组的地方都可以用切片替代，笔者还是建议尽量用迭代切片替换对数组的迭代，这样总是可以取得一致且稳定的遍历性能。
