+package reflect

+// github.com/modern-go/reflect2 (used by github.com/json-iterator/go) reaches
+// into reflect's unexported runtime helpers via //go:linkname. TinyGo's reflect
+// does not implement these, so a program that links reflect2 fails at link time
+// with "undefined symbol: reflect.mapassign" etc. Provide matching symbols so
+// such programs LINK; they panic if actually exercised. reflect2/jsoniter is
+// therefore non-functional under TinyGo — callers should use encoding/json,
+// which TinyGo's reflect does support. See the skywire TinyGo build notes.
