func Go ¶

func Go(flags int, setupfn func() error, fn func()) error

Go calls the given functions in a new goroutine, locked to an OS thread, which has had the parts of its execution state disassociated from the rest of the current process using unshare(2). It blocks until the new goroutine has started and setupfn has returned. fn is only called if setupfn returns nil. A nil setupfn or fn is equivalent to passing a no-op function.

The disassociated execution state and any changes made to it are only visible to the goroutine which the functions are called in. Any other goroutines, including ones started from the function, will see the same execution state as the rest of the process.

The acceptable flags are documented in the unshare(2) Linux man-page. The corresponding CLONE_* constants are defined in package unix.

Warning

This function may terminate the thread which the new goroutine executed on after fn returns, which could cause subprocesses started with the syscall.SysProcAttr Pdeathsig field set to be signaled before process termination. Any subprocess started before this function is called may be affected, in addition to any subprocesses started inside setupfn or fn. There are more details at https://go.dev/issue/27505.
