[FAIL] Flags Specs [It] should run the race detector when told to [slow]

Hi Team,

I am trying to build the onsi/ginkgo package on the power/ppc64le architecture. I am doubtful when I am trying to execute the go test -v ./... command one test case is failing as follows

• [FAILED] [20.013 seconds] Flags Specs /ginkgo/integration/flags_test.go:12 [It] should run the race detector when told to [slow] /ginkgo/integration/flags_test.go:51 Begin Captured GinkgoWriter Output >> FATAL: ThreadSanitizer CHECK failed: ./gotsan.cpp:14506 "((personality(old_personality | ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE))) != ((-1))" (0xffffffffffffffff, 0xffffffffffffffff) Ginkgo ran 1 suite in 19.993896808s Test Suite Passed << End Captured GinkgoWriter Output No future change is possible.

And after giving the race flag (go test -race ./...) getting following output

which is the right way and does the -race flag impacts/suppress the test cases for the package

hey there - I don't think Go's race detector supports power/ppc64. If you're just consuming/using Ginkgo this shouldn't be a problem. If you're trying to run the Ginkgo tests then, yes, this integration test which checks that Ginkgo is correctly running the race detector will fail. You could skip that test with ginkgo --skip="race detector"
