2026-01-23runtime: speed up cheaprand and cheaprand64Gavin Lam
The current cheaprand performs 128-bit multiplication on 64-bit numbers and truncate the result to 32 bits, which is inefficient. A 32-bit specific implementation is more performant because it performs 64-bit multiplication on 32-bit numbers instead. The current cheaprand64 involves two cheaprand calls. Implementing it as 64-bit wyrand is significantly faster. Since cheaprand64 discards one bit, I have preserved this behavior. The underlying uint64 function is made available as cheaprandu64. │ old │ new │ │ sec/op │ sec/op vs base │ Cheaprand-8 1.358n ± 0% 1.218n ± 0% -10.31% (n=100) Cheaprand64-8 2.424n ± 0% 1.391n ± 0% -42.62% (n=100) Blocksampled-8 8.347n ± 0% 2.022n ± 0% -75.78% (n=100) Fixes #77149 Change-Id: Ib0b5da4a642cd34d0401b03c1d343041f8230d11 GitHub-Last-Rev: 549d8d407e2bbcaecdee0b52cbf3a513dda637fb GitHub-Pull-Request: golang/go#77150 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/735480 Auto-Submit: Keith Randall <khr@golang.org> Reviewed-by: Carlos Amedee <carlos@golang.org> Reviewed-by: Keith Randall <khr@google.com> Reviewed-by: Keith Randall <khr@golang.org> LUCI-TryBot-Result: Go LUCI <golang-scoped@luci-project-accounts.iam.gserviceaccount.com>

Add a new package that will contain a new "Swiss Table" (https://abseil.io/about/design/swisstables) map implementation, which is intended to eventually replace the existing runtime map implementation. This implementation is based on the fabulous github.com/cockroachdb/swiss package contributed by Peter Mattis. This CL adds an hash map implementation. It supports all the core operations, but does not have incremental growth. For #54766.

2024-10-07runtime: overwrite startupRand instead of clearing itFilippo Valsorda
AT_RANDOM is unfortunately used by libc before we run (so make sure it's not cleared) but also is available to cgo programs after we did. It would be unfortunate if a cgo program assumed it could use AT_RANDOM but instead found all zeroes there.

2023-12-07runtime: put runtime.fastrand back temporarilyRuss Cox
Callers should be using math/rand/v2.Uint64 instead, but there are lots of linkname references to runtime.fastrand in public code. If we break it all now, that will require people to use //go:build tags to use rand/v2.Uint64 with Go 1.22 and keep using the linkname for earlier versions. Instead, leave the linkname working and then we can remove it in Go 1.24, at which point everyone should be able to use math/rand/v2.Uint64 unconditionally.

2023-12-05math/rand, math/rand/v2: use ChaCha8 for global randRuss Cox
Move ChaCha8 code into internal/chacha8rand and use it to implement runtime.rand, which is used for the unseeded global source for both math/rand and math/rand/v2. This also affects the calculation of the start point for iteration over very very large maps (when the 32-bit fastrand is not big enough). The benefit is that misuse of the global random number generators in math/rand and math/rand/v2 in contexts where non-predictable randomness is important for security reasons is no longer a security problem, removing a common mistake among programmers who are unaware of the different kinds of randomness. The cost is an extra 304 bytes per thread stored in the m struct plus 2-3ns more per random uint64 due to the more sophisticated algorithm. Using PCG looks like it would cost about the same, although I haven't benchmarked that. Before this, the math/rand and math/rand/v2 global generator was wyrand (https://github.com/wangyi-fudan/wyhash). For math/rand, using wyrand instead of the Mitchell/Reeds/Thompson ALFG was justifiable, since the latter was not any better. But for math/rand/v2, the global generator really should be at least as good as one of the well-studied, specific algorithms provided directly by the package, and it's not. (Wyrand is still reasonable for scheduling and cache decisions.) Good randomness does have a cost: about twice wyrand. Also rationalize the various runtime rand references. goos: linux goarch: amd64 pkg: math/rand/v2 cpu: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core Processor │ bbb48afeb7.amd64 │ 5cf807d1ea.amd64 │ │ sec/op │ sec/op vs
