What version of Go are you using (go version)?

1.19
specifically, the docker builder: golang:1.19-bullseye

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

Operating System - building with docker.
Host os = macOS 12.4, docker version 4.11.0 (83626)
Host architecture = ARM64/M1
Guest infrastructure = qemu amd64

What did you do?

on an M1 running macOS and Docker:

  1. git clone https://github.com/Agoric/ag0.git
  2. cd ag0
  3. git checkout gobug
  4. docker buildx build --build-arg version_name=test --platform linux/amd64 --file Dockerfile .
  5. build will repeatedly fail in the amd64 build

What did you expect to see?

both arm64 and amd64 builds succeed the go build through docker, as they did with go 1.18

What did you see instead?

The errors differ each time but seem to revolve around:
mallocgc called without a P or outside bootstrapping

I was able to reproduce this issue on two machines as well, both M1s. I was also able to build the code successfully on an actual md64 machine on go1.19 without issue. This appears to only be an issue when go is invoked through docker+qemu+amd64.

Here are the logs from 4 separate invocations: https://gist.github.com/arirubinstein/ddc81ed44a2ca19c5c2c77049cca91dd

We've generally had problems with bugs in qemu. It is not a supported platform. See #1508 for details.
I'm not sure there is anything we can do here. I would guess it is some sort of bug in qemu threads. Please reopen if you can reproduce without qemu, or if someone can investigate and determine it is something suspicious in the runtime (e.g. depending on something not guaranteed by posix).

@randall77 I meet the same problem in macos(apple chip), docker-desktop were powered by qemu.
