Go is an expressive, concurrent, garbage collected systems programming language that is type safe and memory safe. It has pointers but no pointer arithmetic. Go has fast builds, clean syntax, garbage collection, methods for any type, and run-time reflection. It feels like a dynamic language but has the speed and safety of a static language.
This is a modified version of the Go compiler and tools. When the host is in FIPS mode, the Go standard library crypto packages use a new openssl backend which dynamically links to the OpenSSL libcrypto .so.
The OpenSSL functionality is a modification of the Go upstream experimental support for boringcrypto as dynamically linked crypto backend.
