x/tools/gopls: vscode shift + F12 fails to go to function's reference when the function and its reference locates in the same package #77260
Description
Go version
go version go1.24.11 darwin/arm64
Output of go env in your module/workspace:
GOOS='darwin'
GOPROXY='https://go-mod-proxy.byted.org,https://goproxy.cn,https://proxy.golang.org,direct'
GOROOT='/usr/local/go'
GOSUMDB='sum.golang.google.cn'
.....What did you do?
below is a simple code with a function named "read", and its reference locates in the same package(main)
package main
// go run main/string_data_race_panic.go
import (
"fmt"
"reflect"
"time"
"unsafe"
)
func main() {
str := "init"
go func() {
for i := 1; i < 10000; i++ {
read(str)
}
}()
for {
str = ""
time.Sleep(10 * time.Nanosecond)
str = "/test/test/test"
time.Sleep(10 * time.Nanosecond)
}
}
func read(c string) {
s := (*reflect.StringHeader)(unsafe.Pointer(&c))
fmt.Printf("ptr: 0x%x, len: %d ", s.Data, s.Len)
fmt.Printf("fullPath: %s\n", c)
// _, _ = json.Marshal(c)
}when opened in vscode, you cannot goto the reference of function read, with gopls(server) output like this:
[Error - 17:14:56] Request textDocument/references failed.
Message: no identifier found
Code: 0 this error message also appears in these case:
[Error - 17:15:38] Request textDocument/prepareCallHierarchy failed.
Message: identifier not found
Code: 0
[Error - 17:16:09] Request textDocument/prepareTypeHierarchy failed.
Message: not a type name
Code: 0 also only enter "F12" used to trip around function definition and reference, now it is bad too.
I searched the issue list, found this issue #36917, just for your reference.
What did you see happen?
this issue may be caused by gopls v0.21.0
I used 'Go: install/update tools' to update gopls before, and I ran into this problem.
I try to reinstall the old version of gopls, and reboot vscode, the problem is solved
What did you expect to see?
go to reference works as expected!
