This is not really a fix I'm afraid. If we ever run into this on shutdown, the deadlock still exists. We should figure out what is causing the actual deadlock since the stream should unblock after the listener is closed.

Other than this line I couldn't really identify another spot where it might potentially deadlock. @lukechampine do you mind taking a look? I commented on the PR with a link to the stack trace. I figured the stream could live on even after the listener got closed.

if err != nil {
p.setErr(err)
return fmt.Errorf("failed to set deadline: %w", err)
}

inflight <- struct{}{}
s.wg.Add(1)
go func() {
defer s.wg.Done()
defer stream.Close()
// NOTE: we do not set any deadlines on the stream. If a peer is
// slow, fine; we don't need to worry about resource exhaustion
// unless we have tons of peers.
if err := s.handleRPC(id, stream, p); err != nil {
s.log.Debug("rpc failed", zap.Stringer("peer", p), zap.Stringer("rpc", id), zap.Error(err))
}

Similar thing here. This shouldn't really be necessary. If we run into this, we still got deadlock issues.

I definitely agree on the deadlock still being an issue, I wasn't aware the stream would automatically unblock if the listener got closed. That aside though, I always do the waitChan pattern to avoid a naked s.wg.Wait and consider it good practice?

s.wg.Wait()
close(waitChan)
}()

select {
case <-ctx.Done():
return errors.Join(err, ctx.Err())
case <-waitChan:
}

return err
}
