What did you do?

I made and run this script via go run test.go:

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"context"
	"io/ioutil"
	"log"
	"net/http"
	"time"
)

// TestRequest ...
func TestRequest(url string, m string) {
	req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", url, bytes.NewBufferString(m))
	req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")

	ctx, ctxCancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second)
	defer ctxCancel()
	req = req.WithContext(ctx)

	log.Println("Starting default client")
	resp, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
	log.Println("Finished default client", resp, err)
	if err != nil {
		log.Println(err)
	}
	defer resp.Body.Close()

	body, _ := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
	log.Println(string(body))
}

// Worker ...
func Worker() {
	TestRequest("https://google.com", "{}")
	TestRequest("http://google.com", "{}")
}

func main() {
	go Worker()
	for {
	}
}

What did you expect to see?

All requests to be performed.
In standard output something like this:

Starting default client
Finished default client <sample body> <sample error>
Starting default client
Finished default client <sample body> <sample error>

OR panic (some messages via stderr)

What did you see instead?

None requests were performed, no output except first line.
In standard output:

Starting default client

In debugger (vscode + delve) it hangs on line 171 of client.go:

func (c *Client) send(req *Request, deadline time.Time) (resp *Response, didTimeout func() bool, err error) {
>>	if c.Jar != nil {
		for _, cookie := range c.Jar.Cookies(req.URL) {

Here c is defined and c.Jar is nil.

Additional

I tested it against http without ssl and it works fine.

Changed url to yandex.ru and now it works fine, perhaps it happened due blocks, but still I don't understand why this method didn't fail or output something.

Maybe related #13957 #16582

Duplicate of #25054

It's due to the for {} busy loop. If you want to block forever a goroutine use select {} instead.

@FiloSottile okay, I confirm this, thank you.
