func MetaFileForPackage(importPath string) string
MetaFileForPackage returns the expected name of the meta-data file for the package whose import path is 'importPath' in cases where we're using meta-data generated by the cover tool, as opposed to a meta-data file created at runtime.
CoverFixupConfig contains annotations/notes generated by the cmd/cover tool (during instrumentation) to be passed on to the compiler when the instrumented code is compiled. The cmd/cover tool creates a struct of this type, JSON-encodes it, and emits the result to a file, which the Go command then passes to the compiler when the instrumented package is built.
type CoverFixupConfig struct { // Name of the variable (created by cmd/cover) containing the // encoded meta-data for the package. MetaVar string // Length of the meta-data. MetaLen int // Hash computed by cmd/cover of the meta-data. MetaHash string // Instrumentation strategy. For now this is always set to // "normal", but in the future we may add new values (for example, // if panic paths are instrumented, or if the instrumenter // eliminates redundant counters). Strategy string // Prefix assigned to the names of counter variables generated // during instrumentation by cmd/cover. CounterPrefix string // Name chosen for the package ID variable generated during // instrumentation. PkgIdVar string // Counter mode (e.g. set/count/atomic) CounterMode string // Counter granularity (perblock or perfunc). CounterGranularity string }
CoverPkgConfig is a bundle of information passed from the Go command to the cover command during "go build -cover" runs. The Go command creates and fills in a struct as below, then passes file containing the encoded JSON for the struct to the "cover" tool when instrumenting the source files in a Go package.
type CoverPkgConfig struct { // File into which cmd/cover should emit summary info // when instrumentation is complete. OutConfig string // Import path for the package being instrumented. PkgPath string // Package name. PkgName string // Instrumentation granularity: one of "perfunc" or "perblock" (default) Granularity string // Module path for this package (empty if no go.mod in use) ModulePath string // Local mode indicates we're doing a coverage build or test of a // package selected via local import path, e.g. "./..." or // "./foo/bar" as opposed to a non-relative import path. See the // corresponding field in cmd/go's PackageInternal struct for more // info. Local bool // EmitMetaFile if non-empty is the path to which the cover tool should // directly emit a coverage meta-data file for the package, if the // package has any functions in it. The go command will pass in a value // here if we've been asked to run "go test -cover" on a package that // doesn't have any *_test.go files. EmitMetaFile string }
