avo is a Go library for generating x86-64 assembly using Go programs, providing an assembly-like API with register allocation and automatic argument loading/stub generation. It makes high-performance Go assembly easier to write, review, and maintain via go:generate workflows.

Use cases

  • generate optimized x86-64 assembly for Go packages
  • write high-performance SIMD kernels without hand-writing assembly
  • avoid manual register allocation in Go assembly functions
  • auto-generate Go stub files for assembly functions
  • maintain cryptographic assembly like edwards25519

When to choose

  • you need hand-tuned x86-64 performance in a Go project
  • you want assembly generation logic expressed as Go programs
  • you want automatic register allocation and struct offset handling

When to avoid

  • you need assembly for non-x86 architectures
  • you want a stable API without pinning versions
  • you only need portable pure-Go performance
