Winsock API calls don't set errno, instead you call WSAGetLastError(). It looks like Go doesn't. Have I missed something?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winsock/error-codes-errno-h-errno-and-wsagetlasterror-2

This affects net.isConnError() and a fix for #35131.

func isConnError(err error) bool {
        if se, ok := err.(syscall.Errno); ok {
                return se == syscall.WSAECONNRESET || se == syscall.WSAECONNABORTED
        }
        return false

WSAGetLastError is just a synonym for GetLastError. At least on amd64 the Go runtime cheats by inlining GetLastError to just load directly from %gs. See asmstdcall and getlasterror in runtime/sys_windows_amd64.s.

If we get this wrong somewhere lets look at that specific case, but I'm going to close this general issue because there shouldn't be a general problem here.

Ah, sorry; that's not mentioned in the MS docs, but described in
