What did you do?

Ran our standard edge node service.

What did you expect to see?

The service to run and process requests

What did you see instead?

A strange panic from the runtime.

Could this be related to #37664?

[randall77]

Something is garbage here. The type pointer is 0x43d78e, which is not a valid pointer. Type pointers should always be 8-byte aligned. There's no indication where reflect.(*rtype).Len gets its argument - everything else in that trace is runtime functions, which can't call into reflect.

I'm not sure there's more we can do here without a reproducer.
I would recommend running the race detector, and auditing any uses of unsafe.

When we encounter a similar stack during type assertion with go1.17.7, there are concurrent store/delete operations when traversing the sync.Map, similar to the following code，however, I did not reproduce the issue with this code:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"sync"
)

type Foo struct {
	Name string
}

func (f *Foo) GetName() string {
	return f.Name
}

type IFoo interface {
	GetName() string
}

func main() {
	myMap := &sync.Map{}

	go func() {
		for i := 0; i < 1000000; i++ {
			myMap.Store(i, &Foo{})
		}
	}()

	go func() {
		for i := 0; i < 1000000; i++ {
			myMap.Delete(i)
		}
	}()

	for {
		myMap.Range(func(k, v interface{}) bool {
			f := v.(IFoo)
			fmt.Println(k, f.GetName())
			return true
		})
	}
}
