duplicate symbols and the linker will fail. To avoid this, definitions
must be placed in preambles in other files, or in C source files.

# Passing pointers

Go is a garbage collected language, and the garbage collector needs to
know the location of every pointer to Go memory. Because of this,
there are restrictions on passing pointers between Go and C.

In this section the term Go pointer means a pointer to memory

// We use the #pragma to avoid a compiler warning about incompatible
// pointer types, because we generate code passing a struct ptr rather
// than using the typedef. This warning is expected and does not break
// a normal build.
// We can only disable -Wincompatible-pointer-types starting with GCC 5.

Unlike many projects on GitHub, the Go project does not use its bug tracker for general discussion or asking questions.
We only use our bug tracker for tracking bugs and tracking proposals going through the [Proposal Process](https://go.dev/s/proposal-process).

For asking questions, see:

* [The golang-nuts mailing list](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/golang-nuts)

The vendor directory may be updated with 'go mod vendor'.
A typical sequence might be:

    cd src  # or src/cmd
    go get golang.org/x/net@master
    go mod tidy
    go mod vendor

Use caution when passing '-u' to 'go get'. The '-u' flag updates
modules providing all transitively imported packages, not only
the module providing the target package.

Note that 'go mod vendor' only copies packages that are transitively
