These rules are checked dynamically at runtime. The checking is
controlled by the cgocheck setting of the GODEBUG environment
variable. The default setting is GODEBUG=cgocheck=1, which implements
reasonably cheap dynamic checks. These checks may be disabled
entirely using GODEBUG=cgocheck=0. Complete checking of pointer
handling, at some cost in run time, is available by setting
GOEXPERIMENT=cgocheck2 at build time.

	// Second, if ContentErr==nil, the content should match Content.
	// If content is large, an alternative to setting Content is to set File,
	// which names a file in the testdata/ directory containing the
	// uncompressed expected content.
	// If content is very large, an alternative to setting Content or File
	// is to set Size, which will then be checked against the header-reported size

x[i], i = 2, 1  // set x[0] = 2, i = 1

x[0], x[0] = 1, 2  // set x[0] = 1, then x[0] = 2 (so x[0] == 2 at end)

x[1], x[3] = 4, 5  // set x[1] = 4, then panic setting x[3] = 5.

type Point struct { x, y int }
var p *Point
x[2], p.x = 6, 7  // set x[2] = 6, then panic setting p.x = 7

i = 2
x = []int{3, 5, 7}
for i, x[i] = range x {  // set i, x[2] = 0, x[0]

}

The [`asynctimerchan` setting](/pkg/time/#NewTimer) disables this change.
There are no runtime metrics for this change,
This setting may be removed in a future release, Go 1.27 at the earliest.

Go 1.23 changed the mode bits reported by [`os.Lstat`](/pkg/os#Lstat) and [`os.Stat`](/pkg/os#Stat)
for reparse points, which can be controlled with the `winsymlink` setting.

		os.Exit(2)

		// nothing

// gofmtPos returns the gofmt-formatted string for an AST node,
// with a comment setting the position before the node.
func gofmtPos(n ast.Expr, pos token.Pos) string {
	s := gofmtLine(n)
	p := fset.Position(pos)
	if p.Column == 0 {
		return s
	}

		f.NonUTF8 = false
	default:
		// Might be UTF-8, might be some other encoding; preserve existing flag.
		// Some ZIP writers use UTF-8 encoding without setting the UTF-8 flag.
		// Since it is impossible to always distinguish valid UTF-8 from some
		// other encoding (e.g., GBK or Shift-JIS), we trust the flag.
		f.NonUTF8 = f.Flags&0x800 == 0

These new behaviors are only enabled when the main Go program
is in a module with a `go.mod` `go` line using Go 1.23.0 or later.
When Go 1.23 builds older programs, the old behaviors remain in effect.
The new [GODEBUG setting](/doc/godebug) [`asynctimerchan=1`](/pkg/time/#NewTimer)
can be used to revert back to asynchronous channel behaviors

}

	}
	return fmt.Sprint(*m)

// built-in function recover.
