# what's the difference between function definition in golang asm with funcname<>(SB), funcname(SB) and ·funcname(SB)?
In Go assembly, the naming conventions for function definitions are as follows:
1. funcname(SB): This is a global function named funcname. The (SB) suffix refers to the static base pointer, which is used to reference global symbols. This function can be called from anywhere in the program.
1. funcname<>(SB): This is a file-local function named funcname. The <> makes the function local to the file it's defined in. Other files in the same package cannot call this function directly.
1. ·funcname(SB): This is a special notation used in the Plan 9 assembly syntax that Go uses. The · prefix denotes a global symbol. This function can be called from anywhere in the program. It's essentially the same as funcname(SB).
我感觉AI回答的不是十分正确，·funcname(SB)是最常用到的，感觉更应该是package level function。
In Go assembly, the · symbol is used to denote a global symbol. When you define a global symbol like ·mask, it's expected to be unique in the entire program. If you try to define ·mask more than once, you'll get a duplicate symbol definition error.
On the other hand, mask<> is a local symbol. Local symbols are only visible within the file they are defined in. You can have a mask<> symbol in each assembly file in your program, and they won't conflict with each other because they are not visible outside their own files.
So, the difference comes from the scope of the symbols. Global symbols like ·mask are visible throughout the entire program and must be unique. Local symbols like mask<> are only visible within their own file and can be defined in each file without causing conflicts.
