success

many failures, all sharing (some fraction of) the stack trace

I tried to debug this by reproducing the actions for TestFFLAGS but could not figure out the right way to run the command, so was unable. I wanted this failure:

but because I could not figure out the exact environment for running go (the test claimed to be running "testgo"), instead I saw

package p is not in GOROOT (/Users/drchase/work/go/src/p)

When I guessed at a way to run the command (cd ~/work/src/fflags/p/src/p; go build main.go -- no idea if this is what the test harness was doing or not) I got the successful expected failure

command-line-arguments: invalid flag in #cgo FFLAGS: -no-such-fortran-flag

but I have no idea what's actually going on here, I am just guessing. Darn shame the test was not more explicit about the details of what it was trying to do.

The stack trace in the failure shows

            	/Users/drchase/work/go/src/cmd/go/internal/modload/init.go:226 +0x9e

(https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/fcfbbf2ff68a8997438d82cc2800c4744e908854:src/cmd/go/internal/modload/init.go;l=226).

That suggests that inWorkspaceMode() is true but mms is nil — but inWorkspaceMode() would imply a non-empty GOWORK variable in the go env output. 🤔

Additional information: I modified the test to print out working directories and environments, then started pruning the environment, and eventually discovered that the failure was sensitive to the directory. If I ran the command in $GOROOT/src (note that this directory contains go.work, see above comment) then it fails with a panic, otherwise it fails with the expected complain about fortran flags:

HOME=/test-go-home-does-not-exist TMPDIR=/tmp/foo USER=drchase  \
PATH=/Users/drchase/work/go-quick/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin \
PWD=/Users/drchase/work/go-quick/src/cmd/go GOVCS='*:all' \
CMDGO_TEST_RUN_MAIN=true TESTGO_GOROOT=/Users/drchase/work/go-quick \
GOROOT=/Users/drchase/work/go-quick TESTGO_GOHOSTOS=darwin \
TESTGO_GOHOSTARCH=amd64 GOENV=off CCACHE_DISABLE=1 \
GOCACHE=/Users/drchase/Library/Caches/go-build GO111MODULE=off \
GOPATH=/Users/drchase/work/src/fflags/p go build -x p

Contents of $GOPATH in that command:

Contents (src subdirectory) of $GOPATH for FFLAGS test.
-- src/p/a.f --
! comment
-- src/p/main.go --
package main

// #cgo FFLAGS: -no-such-fortran-flag
import "C"

func main() {}

So, that is the workaround, presence of go.work is suspected to be the trigger.
Removing go.work is correlated with the bug going away.

At minimum, the test ought to detect this and fail in a more informative way.

Turns out I typed "go env" in a different directory than the one where it was crashing, which explains the missing GOWORK variable.

cmd/go: disable workspace mode in GOPATH mode
af75817 
Workspace mode is specifically for working with modules;
it doesn't make sense in GOPATH mode.

This also fixes a panic in (*modload.MainModuleSet).GoVersion
when go.work is present in GOPATH mode.

For #58767.

cmd/go: set GOWORK=off explicitly in script tests that cd to GOROOT
454198a 
Some folks working on the Go project may have a go.work file in
GOROOT/src in order to test changes in x repos. 'go test cmd/go'
should not fail if that is the case.

For #58767.
