colin-si opened a new issue, #1432:
URL: https://github.com/apache/servicecomb-service-center/issues/1432
**Describe the bug**
The return result of the StringToBytesWithNoCopy function will be recycled
by GC when a large number of objects are created.
**To Reproduce**
The following demo can reproduce this problem
```
var ResultKey []byte
func main() {
key:=[]byte("123456789")
ResultKey = StringToBytesWithNoCopy(string(key))
// Result is normal before gc
log.Printf("before runtime.gc and makeEscape: %v\n", string(ResultKey))
runtime.GC()
for i:=1;i<5000;i++{
makeEscape(time.Now().String())
}
// Result has been recycled after gc
log.Printf("after runtime.gc and makeEscape: %v\n",string(ResultKey))
}
func makeEscape(input string)string {
return input
}
// method copy from servicecomb-service-center/pkg/util/util.go
func StringToBytesWithNoCopy(s string) []byte {
x := (*[2]uintptr)(unsafe.Pointer(&s))
h := [3]uintptr{x[0], x[1], x[1]}
return *(*[]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(&h))
}
// use this method can solve the problem
func StringToBytesWithNoCopyNew(str string) []byte {
return *(*[]byte)(unsafe.Pointer(
&struct {
string
Cap int
}{str, len(str)},
))
}
```
**Expected behavior**
When we executed the above demo, we found that the returned results were
recycled after GC. This was unexpected. The memory where ResultKey is located
is recycled and reallocated for use elsewhere.
```
2023/12/13 10:57:20 before runtime.gc and makeEscape: 123456789
2023/12/13 10:57:20 after runtime.gc and makeEscape: m=+0.017
```
