Description
What version of Go are you using (go version
)?
tip
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
intermittently, only seen on the golang build page so far
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env
)?
ppc64le
What did you do?
When the fastrand change was merged e7e4a4f runtime failures started to happen intermittently for ppc64le on the build page. Another change was merged after that resulting in consistent failures on ppc64le that hid this one for a while, but that one has now been fixed.
What did you expect to see?
ok for the ppc64le build on the build page
What did you see instead?
fail for the ppc64le build on the build page intermittently
Here is an example of when it fails https://build.golang.org/log/8552765394dde8879c15b4e35b2f995606b8ed1b.
Looks like the tests are all parked waiting to run and it times out.
If I look at the change where this started happening, the only thing that looks like it could affect this is the code that was moved in mcommoninit to be under control of a lock where it wasn't before, but I can't say that is wrong, just different.
I have not been able to reproduce this anywhere else.
