The `(Debian-based)` parenthetical broke the required
`# image:vX.Y.Z, YYYY-MM-DD` form and asserted a base change that never
happened (v2.12.1 was Debian too); the tag before the digest left three
FROM lines in one file using two conventions. Digest unchanged, in both
Dockerfile and Dockerfile.lint. The golang and alpine pin comments
already matched the required form.
script/verify-lint-image-pin parses these two FROM lines to keep them
identical and still matches the tagless form; its advice line drops the
now-meaningless "tag and digest". With no tag in either reference a
tag-only disagreement cannot arise; a tag reintroduced on one side is
caught as a plain mismatch.
Per the owner ruling the linter runs in a container invoked through the
script/ entrypoint, never installed on a host. Dockerfile.lint COPYs
the repo into the digest-pinned golangci/golangci-lint:v2.12.2 image
and runs `golangci-lint config verify` and `golangci-lint run` as build
steps, so a successful build IS a clean lint. script/lint is reduced to
building it, and works with a remote docker daemon, where bind mounts
are impossible.
script/bootstrap loses the `go install`, the pin constants, the version
parser and verify_golangci_lint: with nothing linting on the host, the
$GOPATH/bin versus PATH shadowing they diagnosed has no subject. It
keeps the git/make/go presence checks and `go mod download`, and warns
rather than fails when docker is absent.
Traps for anyone changing this.
A lint build on an unchanged tree exits 0 in under a second having run
no linter -- #32 and #39 again. Caching is waived by ruling:
Dockerfile.lint carries ARG CHECK_EPOCH referenced inside every gate
RUN, because BuildKit hashes the expanded command and a declared but
unreferenced ARG invalidates nothing. script/lint passes
"$(date +%s)-$$"; the PID is there because two runs land in the same
second easily and a bare epoch would cache the second.
Nothing inside an image build may shell out to docker. The main
Dockerfile's lint stage therefore invokes golangci-lint directly rather
than `make lint`, and its build stage runs `make test` and
`make fmt-check` rather than the `make check` aggregate, which reaches
script/lint. Both stay `make` invocations rather than bare scripts
because the Makefile's `export CGO_ENABLED = 0` only reaches what it
invokes.
COPY --from=lint /usr/bin/golangci-lint becomes
COPY --from=lint /src/go.sum /dev/null. The copied binary was the only
edge forcing BuildKit to finish linting before the build stage starts;
dropping it without replacing the edge would have ended fail-fast
linting silently under a still-green build. That no-op copy is the
ordering edge canonical REPO_POLICIES.md prescribes. Nothing in the
build stage runs the linter now, so ENV PATH=/home/builder/go/bin:$PATH
goes with the `go install` that justified it.
script/verify-linter-pin is retired with its README entry: it compared
a linter binary against GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION in script/bootstrap and
neither subject still exists. The drift moved rather than went away --
the linter is pinned twice, as the FROM line of Dockerfile.lint and the
FROM line of the Dockerfile lint stage, which is what #42 made a build
failure. script/verify-lint-image-pin compares those two references to
each other and restates neither pin; a hardcoded digest would be a
third copy and the same drift one file further out. It runs as a gate
in both files, and an unreadable reference is a hard failure rather
than a vacuous pass.
`golangci-lint config verify` is included per the ruling, and its
unpinned live HTTPS schema fetch was measured rather than assumed:
under --network none the pinned binary passes a valid config and
rejects an invalid one with the jsonschema error, so it validates
against a schema it embeds. That holds for the gate steps, none of
which makes a network call, but not for the build around them --
Dockerfile.lint runs `go mod download` above the gates, so a cold cache
needs the network and only a warm one lints offline, until go.mod or
go.sum changes.
Verified. `make lint` green with every PATH directory containing a
golangci-lint removed and `command -v golangci-lint` empty. Two
consecutive script/lint runs on an untouched tree both executed the
linter, 27.7s and 28.7s under distinct epochs with the COPY layer
CACHED above them. A planted unused variable failed script/lint with
that finding, and failed `make docker` at the lint stage with the build
stage stopped before its COPY --from=lint; reverted clean. The drift
guard fails on tag-only, digest-only and unreadable-reference cases,
naming both sides. `make check` green; `make docker` green in 5m35s
with all six gates executing and the test gate reporting real coverage
rather than a cached ok. In the builder image with the Go test cache
off, --user 0:0 still fails TestScanHardlinkRunFailsTogether where the
unprivileged user passes, so the non-root quirk is intact.
