What did you do?
Calling GroupIds when the user is a member of more than 256 groups fails on macOS.
This was originally reported at #21067 and fixed in f100e0c but regressed again in 185766d. The Darwin-specific groupRetry code was (presumably) erroneously removed.
Here's a rough test script I used to reproduce the issue in CI. I've minimised it a bit but should hopefully still reproduce the issue:
package main
import "os/user"
func main() {
usr, err := user.Current()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
_, err = usr.GroupIds()
println("GroupIds success =", err == nil)
}
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
GROUP_COUNT=300
for i in $(seq 1 "${GROUP_COUNT}"); do
sudo dseditgroup -o create "dummygroup${i}"
sudo dseditgroup -o edit -a "${USER}" -t user "dummygroup${i}"
done
cleanup() {
for i in $(seq 1 "${GROUP_COUNT}"); do
sudo dseditgroup -o delete -q "dummygroup${i}" || true
done
}
trap cleanup EXIT
go run main.go
What did you see happen?
GroupIds success = false
What did you expect to see?
GroupIds success = true
