Go approaches its memory model in much the same way as the rest of the language,
aiming to keep the semantics simple, understandable, and useful.
This section gives a general overview of the approach and should suffice for most programmers.

The assembler is based on the input style of the Plan 9 assemblers, which is documented in detail
<a href="https://9p.io/sys/doc/asm.html">elsewhere</a>.
If you plan to write assembly language, you should read that document although much of it is Plan 9-specific.
The current document provides a summary of the syntax and the differences with
what is explained in that document, and
describes the peculiarities that apply when writing assembly code to interact with Go.
