Apply concurrency control mechanisms with precise scope to prevent both race conditions and unnecessary blocking. Use appropriate synchronization tools (mutex, channels, errgroup) only around critical sections that actually require protection.
Apply concurrency control mechanisms with precise scope to prevent both race conditions and unnecessary blocking. Use appropriate synchronization tools (mutex, channels, errgroup) only around critical sections that actually require protection.
Common patterns to follow:
// Bad - overly broad mutex scope mux.Lock() defer mux.Unlock() // Blocking concurrent operations unnecessarily runProviders()
2. Use errgroup for concurrent error handling:
```go
eg := errgroup.Group{}
for _, container := range containers {
container := container // Capture loop variable
eg.Go(func() error {
return processContainer(ctx, container)
})
}
return eg.Wait()
// Good - protected access var mu sync.Mutex for _, svc := range services { svc := svc go func() { mu.Lock() opts[svc.Name] = buildOptions() mu.Unlock() }() } ```
