Thanks for your reply, If I'm not confused, the implementation of Go race detector is written in go/src/runtime/race.go and its TSAN implementation (in C/C++) is dynamic linked to target programs by a shared library. Could I simply add race.go to gofrontend then link the target programs by the TSAN shared library to make the race detector enabled? I know integrating the race detector to gccgo/gollvm can't be done as easily as the aforementioned method, but what problems will I encounter when I do this.
