This false-positive is not present in the upstream stand-alone 'unused'
2019.1.1 program that golangci-lint uses.
pkg/lint.ContextLoader.filterPackages() did two things:
1. It removed synthetic "testmain" packages (packages with .Name=="main"
and .PkgPath ending with ".test")
2. It removed pruned subsumed copies of packages; if a package with files
"a.go" and "a_test.go", it results in packages.Load giving us two
packages:
- ID=".../a" GoFiles=[a.go]
- ID=".../a [.../a.test]" GoFiles=[a.go a_test.go]
The first package is subsumed in the second, and leaving it around
results in duplicated work, and confuses the 'deadcode' linter.
However, the 'unused' linter relies on both the ".../a" and
".../a [.../a.test]" packages being present. Pruning them causes it to
panic in some situations, which lead to this workaround:
af6baa5dc1
While that workaround got it to not panic, it causes incorrect results.
So, split filterPackages() in to two functions: filterTestMainPackages()
and filterDuplicatePackages(). The linter.Context.Packages list only
gets filterTestMainPackages() called on it, while linter.Context.Program
and linter.Context.SSAProgram get both filters applied.
With the source of the panic fixed, roll back a few now-unnecessary
commits in go-tools.
