Root Cause

Calling RUnlock without a matching RLock, often due to recursive read locking.

generic

中文

在没有相应RLock的情况下调用RUnlock,通常是由于递归读锁定。

Workarounds

  1. 99% success
    mu.RLock(); defer mu.RUnlock()
  2. 95% success
    Restructure code to hold lock only once per goroutine.

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 85% fail

    RLock is not reentrant; multiple RLock without unlock causes deadlock or panic.

  2. 90% fail

    Attempting to upgrade read lock to write lock causes deadlock.
