    net: if a DNS lookup times out, forget that it is in flight · 77595e46
    Ian Lance Taylor authored
    Before this CL, if the system resolver does a very slow DNS
    lookup for a particular host, all subsequent requests for that
    host will hang waiting for that lookup to complete.  That is
    more or less expected when Dial is called with no deadline.
    When Dial has a deadline, though, we can accumulate a large
    number of goroutines waiting for that slow DNS lookup.  Try to
    avoid this problem by restarting the DNS lookup when it is
    redone after a deadline is passed.
    
    This CL also avoids creating an extra goroutine purely to
    handle the deadline.
    
    No test because we would have to simulate a slow DNS lookup
    followed by a fast DNS lookup.
    
    Fixes #8602.
