## Go Attributes
This document defines Go related attributes.
**Attributes:**
| Key | Stability | Value Type | Description | Example Values |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `go.cpu.detailed_state` |  | string | The detailed state of the CPU. [1] | `gc/pause`; `gc/mark/assist` |
| `go.cpu.state` |  | string | The state of the CPU. | `user`; `gc` |
| `go.memory.detailed_type` |  | string | The detailed type of memory. [2] | `heap/objects`; `heap/free` |
| `go.memory.type` |  | string | The type of memory. | `other`; `stack` |
**[1] `go.cpu.detailed_state`:** Value SHOULD match the specific CPU class reported by the Go runtime under `/cpu/classes/...`. The list of possible values is subject to change with the Go version used.
**[2] `go.memory.detailed_type`:** Value SHOULD match the specific memory class reported by the Go runtime under `/memory/classes/...`. The list of possible values is subject to change with the Go version used.

`go.cpu.state` has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.
| Value | Description | Stability |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `gc` | CPU time spent performing garbage collection tasks. |  |
| `idle` | Available CPU time not spent executing any Go or Go runtime code. |  |
| `scavenge` | CPU time spent returning unused memory to the underlying platform. |  |
| `user` | CPU time spent running user Go code. |  |
---
`go.memory.type` has the following list of well-known values. If one of them applies, then the respective value MUST be used; otherwise, a custom value MAY be used.
| Value | Description | Stability |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `other` | Memory used by the Go runtime, excluding other categories of memory usage described in this enumeration. |  |
| `stack` | Memory allocated from the heap that is reserved for stack space, whether or not it is currently in-use. [3] |  |
**[3]:** Computed from `/memory/classes/heap/stacks:bytes`.
