    runtime: set itab.fun[0] only on successful conversion · 8d86ef22
    Cherry Zhang authored
    For a failed interface conversion not in ",ok" form, getitab
    calls itab.init to get the name of the missing method for the
    panic message. itab.init will try to find the methods, populate
    the method table as it goes. When some method is missing, it sets
    itab.fun[0] to 0 before return. There is a small window that
    itab.fun[0] could be non-zero.
    
    If concurrently, another goroutine tries to do the same interface
    conversion, it will read the same itab's fun[0]. If this happens
    in the small window, it sees a non-zero fun[0] and thinks the
    conversion succeeded, which is bad.
    
    Fix the race by setting fun[0] to non-zero only when we know the
    conversion succeeds. While here, also simplify the syntax
    slightly.
    
    Fixes #31419.
