# Optimizing calls of C code

When passing a Go pointer to a C function the compiler normally ensures
that the Go object lives on the heap. If the C function does not keep
a copy of the Go pointer, and never passes the Go pointer back to Go code,
then this is unnecessary. The #cgo noescape directive may be used to tell
the compiler that no Go pointers escape via the named C function.

### Bug or Regression

- Fix a scheduler preemption issue where the victim pod was not deleted due to incorrect status patching. This issue occurred when the preemptor and victim pods had different QoS classes in their status, causing the preemption to fail entirely.
