Go was born into 64-bit era, I remember seeing many more bugs that only occur on 32-bit systems. I'm pretty certain the observation in the article is correct that no one at Google tests Go on anything apart from 64-bit ARM/x86 Linux
- typical182 1mo agoFWIW, every commit for the Go project is tested on multiple 32-bit architectures, including pre-commit tests and post-commit tests. You can see a list here: https://build.golang.org/ https://build.golang.org/ (That particular build dashboard just shows post-commit tests. '386' there is 32-bit x86, 'arm' is 32-bit ARM.) I can't speak to what Google runs in production or what Google tests internally, but the Google-run CI for the Go project definitely does test 32-bit, and those tests essentially match the tests run against 64-bit.
