os/signal: SIGTSTP can't be handled

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

$ go version
go version go1.15.2 darwin/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

It is the latest release

What did you do?

I'm trying to write a remote terminal client that needs to relay Ctrl-Z to the remote host. Intercepting Ctrl-C works fine by using signal.Notify(c, os.Interrupt), but signal.Notify(c, syscall.SIGTSTP) works only half way.

package main

import (
	"os"
	"os/signal"
	"syscall"
	"time"
)

func main() {
	c := make(chan os.Signal)
	signal.Notify(c, syscall.SIGTSTP)

	go func() {
		for {
			<-c
			println("received ctrl-z")
		}
	}()

	for {
		println("Sleeping...")
		time.Sleep(time.Second * 10)
	}
}

What did you expect to see?

Pressing Ctrl-Z should be intercepted and the go process should not suspend.

$ go run main.go
Sleeping...
received ctrl-z
Sleeping...
Sleeping...

What did you see instead?

received ctrl-z is printed but the go process itself is also suspended.

$ go run main.go
Sleeping...
received ctrl-z
[1]+  Stopped                 go run main.go
$ _

use go build and run the executable instead of using go run

@kke I am closing this, as I believe @seankhliao's answer is correct. Please comment if I am mistaken.

@seankhliao is correct. Setting the local terminal to raw mode (for example via "golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/terminal"s MakeRaw()) makes it work even in go run mode (which also makes ctrl-d work)
