Alternative to golang.org/cl/19852. This memory layout doesn't have an easy type representation, but it is noticeably smaller than the current funcType, and saves significant extra space. Some notes on the layout are in reflect/type.go: // A *rtype for each in and out parameter is stored in an array that // directly follows the funcType (and possibly its uncommonType). So // a function type with one method, one input, and one output is: // // struct { // funcType // uncommonType // [2]*rtype // [0] is in, [1] is out // uncommonTypeSliceContents // } There are three arbitrary limits introduced by this CL: 1. No more than 65535 function input parameters. 2. No more than 32767 function output parameters. 3. reflect.FuncOf is limited to 128 parameters. I don't think these are limits in practice, but are worth noting. Reduces godoc binary size by 2.4%, 330KB. For #6853.
