What did you do?

the sample code is there:

package main

import (
	"C"
	_ "unsafe"
)

//go:linkname mainMain main.main
func mainMain()

//export runGoMain
func runGoMain() {
	mainMain()
}

and i forgot to declare a main function, then build it with go build -buildmode=c-archive

What did you expect to see?

What did you see instead?

Thanks. I will update the patch.

This kind of use of linkname is not supported.

Is there a way of reproduce without using linkname? Thanks.

yes, i know this is not a valid go program(as i said before, i forgot to write a main function), maybe go could give a better error message instead of panic itself.

unfortunately i couldn't reproduce it without linkname.

by the way, i'm trying to compile a go program as a android/ios library, and call the runGoMain function from java/objective-c, just like golang/mobile repo.
