I just want to preface that I fully expect this to be user error, given that
this class of bug would cause people to scream from the rooftops.

But I'm completely baffled. so putting this out there in case someone else has seen something similar.

this happens far more frequently in tests than actually running the program.

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

1.13.7

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

GOBIN=""
GOEXE=""
GOFLAGS=""
GOHOSTARCH="amd64"
GOHOSTOS="linux"
GONOPROXY=""
GONOSUMDB=""
GOOS="linux"

What did you do?

I couldn't reproduce on the playground.

git clone git@github.com:usertorrent.git debug
cd debug; git checkout debug
go test -v -run TestClientTransferRateLimitedUpload . 2>&1 | tee log.txt

What did you expect to see?

expected the test complete with a standard pass/fail.

What did you see instead?

a panic due to unlock of an unlocked mutex.

what is important to note here is the line:
2020/01/29 06:27:58 chunks.go:214: 0xc000169060 unlock initiated - 4

there is no preceding log message relating to the lock being acquired or the function being invoked.
both log messages are executed before the unlock of the function occurs.

this simply shouldn't be happening, and I'm completely baffled as to why.

things I've checked:

  1. the functions all work in isolation and generate the proper output.
  2. there are an even number of locks/unlocks for this particular lock, and the majority use defer to unlock.
  3. this lock is only used by the functions on the struct. and isn't accessed anywhere else.
  4. I switched to only using .Lock instead of a mix of Lock and RLock.
  5. I've attempted to disable inlining and escaping using magic comments which resulted in no change in output (not 100% sure i did this correctly)
  6. I've checked both go 1.12 and 1.13.
  7. occurs with or without the locking debug code.
  8. reproduces in the test frequently but not as common when running the application.

Where is the reproducer? The

git clone git@github.com:usertorrent.git debug

line doesn't look correct. Also does running go test with -race print any race detector warning?

To answer my own question: if the reproducer is the one at james-lawrence/torrent, it has indeed a data race.

I ran:

go test -race -v -run TestClientTransferRateLimitedUpload .

and the output had this in it (among other things):

==================

We cannot accept bug reports with racy reproducers (a program with a data race is not a valid Go program); so I'm closing this issue.

If you can still reproduce the crash after you've fixed all the data-races, please comment and we'll re-open. Thanks.
