What did you do?

I wrap a network connection with gzip reader and SetReadDeadline for it, but it take no effect when an timeout error occur

code in gunzip.go

func (z *Reader) Read(p []byte) (n int, err error) {
	if z.err != nil {
		return 0, z.err    //** when an error occur, it has no way to go next **
	}

	n, z.err = z.decompressor.Read(p)    //** it may return a timeout error when the reader wrap a network connection **
	z.digest = crc32.Update(z.digest, crc32.IEEETable, p[:n])
	z.size += uint32(n)
	if z.err != io.EOF {
		// In the normal case we return here.
		return n, z.err
	}
        ....

What did you expect to see?

SetReadDeadline take effect and I could retry Read operation when timeout occur

What did you see instead?

SetReadDeadline make no effect
