[bot-for-go]

This issue tracks the status of ongoing microsoft/go releases and the image release from microsoft/go-images. I am a bot, and I'll keep the issue up to date and add a comment when I notice something happen that likely requires the release runner to take some manual action.

For more information about the microsoft/go release process, see docs/release-process in microsoft/go-infra.

Some agent trouble:

• Jobs canceled due to purge
  • Just had to retry and resume. Should be a one-off
• Related outage (also email thread "Azure provisioning issues")
  • May block microsoft/go-images agent availability

• microsoft-go-innerloop is likely flaky and/or interrupted by pool trouble. Rerunning. Current blocker.
• Update dependencies in microsoft/main go-images#576 required manual approval again.
  • Reopened https://github.com/microsoft/go-lab/issues/235

The 1.26 internal innerloop tests seem to have failed solely due to lack of disk space. Low disk space on those agents is a known issue.

• The jobs get warnings like ##[warning]Free disk space on / is lower than 5%; Currently used: 95.04%. (Temp dir per-test balloon/shrink could easily account for spikes causing problems without filling up all the way, unrecoverably, instantly.)
• Failures look like:

  systemcrypto_test.go:121: expected success, got failure: # runtime
          compile: writing output: write $WORK/b012/_pkg_.a: no space left on device
  

Note that these tests did pass fine in public CI, they're only failing in the internal pool. Also, we have already released this toolset as prebuilt binaries--the internal innerloop tests run in parallel precisely because they're potentially too slow and unreliable to put on the critical path.

Talked with @gdams, and bypassing this for this release.
