NOTE

"Out of the box" means the platform is supported out of the box, i.e. the stocked go command can build the source code without the help of a C compiler, etc.

NOTE

The full list is based on the result of the command go tool dist list. The "out of the box" information is based on the result of make1.sh below. The "32-bit/64-bit" information is based on the result of make2.sh below and https://golang.org/doc/install/source.

NOTE

The nacl GOOS was dropped since go version 1.14

The amd64p32 GOARCH, which is related to the nacl GOOS, was also dropped since go version 1.14 (I believe that mips64p32 and mips64p32le are also related, but I could not find any reference)

Reference: https://golang.org/doc/go1.14#nacl

NOTE

The darwin/386 port was dropped since go version 1.15

Reference: https://golang.org/doc/go1.15#darwin

NOTE

On before go version 1.16:

  • darwin/amd64 means macOS
  • darwin/arm64 means iOS

With the introduction of Apple Silicon (a.k.a. the M1 chip), on go version 1.16 or later:

  • darwin/amd64 means macOS with Intel CPU
  • darwin/arm64 updates to mean macOS with Apple Silicon CPU
  • ios/amd64 is the new port for iOS Simulator on macOS with Intel CPU
  • ios/arm64 is the new port for iOS
