x/build: freebsd-amd64-race builder should be updated to use a newer FreeBSD version #40562
Comments
These builders are still used for making minor Go 1.14 and 1.13 releases at this time (see golang.org/issue/40563). Re-enable them on relevant release branches so that we are better informed for future minor releases. For golang/go#40563. Updates golang/go#40562.

@problame I can't create the images in the project's internal GCP account. Ping @dmitshur, @cagedmantis now that Go 1.16 is out maybe there's more time to add the builders. |
For now I'll resolve this specific issue by updating freebsd-amd64-race to use the latest available FreeBSD version, 12.0. Please file a separate issue about adding new builders that target newer versions of FreeBSD. Thank you. |

The
freebsd-amd64-race
builder currently useshost-freebsd-11_1-big
. Go 1.13 and newer require FreeBSD 11.2 or newer. We should update this builder accordingly.If our assumption is that newer stable releases of FreeBSD have fewer bugs, we should likely use the latest stable version we have a builder for, since the goal of a -race builder is to catch data races in the Go code.
