REM Some items might have been omitted as per industry secrets
What did you do?
I executed my project built binary. The project makes heavy usage of channels and has "hopper" strategies to collect items from many channels and output them into one (which I think is the reason for the panic
).
The "hopper" strategy (that I call DeMultiplexer
) looks something like this:
package tools
import (
"context"
"fmt"
)
type DeMultiplexer[T any] struct {
sources []chan T
}
func CreateDeMultiplexer[T any]() DeMultiplexer[T] {
return DeMultiplexer[T]{
sources: []chan T{},
}
}
func (ec *DeMultiplexer[T]) Subscribe(source chan T) {
ec.sources = append(ec.sources, source)
}
func (ec *DeMultiplexer[T]) Run(ctx context.Context) (chan T, error) {
collected := make(chan T, 1)
if err := ctx.Err(); err != nil {
close(collected)
return collected, fmt.Errorf("abort DeMultiplexer due to error: %w", context.Cause(ctx))
}
go func() {
for {
select {
case <-ctx.Done():
return
default:
for _, ch := range ec.sources {
select {
case el := <-ch:
collected <- el
default:
}
}
}
}
}()
return collected, nil
}
What did you see happen?
At times the runtime panics in a non repeatable manner. An example stacktrace:
panic: receive on synctest channel from outside bubble
goroutine 24 [running]:
the/project/tools.(*DeMultiplexer[...]).Run.func1()
C:/path/to/project/tools/demultiplexer.go:39 +0xab
created by the/project/tools.(*DeMultiplexer[...]).Run in goroutine 1
C:/path/to/project/tools/demultiplexer.go:30 +0x12a
What did you expect to see?
Why this, albeit being quite lousy work, snippet of code is able to generate a panic that should happen only during tests, and only by manually enabling experimental features (which I did not do) ?
