Add DefaultIgnoreFunctionSet #127
Conversation
This exposes a variable `DefaultIgnoreFunctionSet`, which can be used to set a default list of functions to ignore for goleak. Note that this mechanism is intended for library or tool authors who cannot directly call Ignore* Options to set up how their consumers are running the tests. They should be able to use linkname to set this variable to some well-known list of goroutines that leak if they really want to exempt their goroutines from getting continously flagged by goleak. Fixes uber-go#119.

I would still consider this useful, but since bazel-contrib/rules_go@0f1e0ae, rules_go doesn't need it anymore. Cc @linzhp |
Will that still be possible following golang/go#67401? |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Risk with making this an exported variable here is that libraries can't easily cooperate on setting this. It'll take one library to do goleak.DefaultIgnoreFunctionSet = "foo" to override other exceptions.

since rules_go no longer needs this, I think it's better to repurpose this feature specifically for library authors and expose a top-level function to append to ignorelist. Will work on that change and fix this PR |
