Can not SO_REUSEADDR about socket work well in golang?

single IP can only support 65535 port to single destination. I hope the client can reuse the old tcp_session immediately during the performance test, even if session is still in time_wait status.

On my Linux machine, I had opened these switch

sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps=1
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle=1
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse=1

Then I write the following code to verify the socket_reuse option with golang. In the code, I bind the local port 12345.

after run first 

$go run 1.go

$netstat -nat | grep 12345
tcp        0      0 192.168.1.11:12345         111.161.3.173:80            TIME_WAIT

after run secondary 

$go run 1.go
Client Connect() called error: cannot assign requested address

It seems that the SO_REUSEADDR can not work. Can Anyone help to resolve this ?

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    . "syscall"
)

func main() {
    var (
        clientsock int
        serveraddr SockaddrInet4
        err        error
    )

    if clientsock, err = Socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP); err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Client Socket() called error:", err.Error())
        return
    }
    SetsockoptInt(clientsock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1)

    defer Shutdown(clientsock, SHUT_RDWR)

    serveraddr.Addr = [4]byte{111, 161, 3, 173}
    serveraddr.Port = 80

    err = Bind(clientsock, &SockaddrInet4{
        Port: 12345,
    })

    if err = Connect(clientsock, &serveraddr); err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Client Connect() called error:", err.Error())
        return
   }
}

You ought to add two changes to your code:

1) Set socket option unix.SO_REUSEPORT.

if errReusePort := SetsockoptInt(clientsock, SOL_SOCKET, unix.SO_REUSEPORT, 1); errReusePort != nil {
    fmt.Printf("reuse port error: %v\n", errReusePort)
    return
}

2) Make your code to connect to distinct remote TCP endpoints. Otherwise, due to single source addr/port, TCP wouldn't be able to distinguish between two identical connections (protocol, src-addr, src-port, dst-addr, dst-port). The example below specifies two remote server addresses in the command-line.

$ go run main.go 127.0.0.1
connected

$ go run main.go 127.0.0.2
connected
