             Summary: [Go] goPanicIndex in firstTimeBitmapWriter.Finish()
                 Key: ARROW-17169
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17169
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Go
    Affects Versions: 8.0.1, 9.0.0
         Environment: go (1.18.3), Linux, AMD64
            Reporter: Robert Purdom


I'm working with complex parquet files with 500+ "root" columns where some 
fields are lists of structs, internally referred to as 'topics'.  Some of these 
structs have 100's of columns.  When reading a particular topic, I get an Index 
Panic at the line indicated below. This error occurs when the value for the 
topic is Null, as in, for this particular root record, this topic has no data.  
The root is household data, the topic is auto, so the error occurs when the 
household has no autos.  The auto field is a Nullable List of Struct.

 
{code:go}
/* Finish() was called from defLevelsToBitmapInternal.

data values when panic occurs....
bw.length == 17531
bw.bitMask == 1
bw.pos == 3424
bw.length == 17531
len(bw.Buf) == 428
cap(bw.Buf) == 448
bw.byteOffset == 428
bw.curByte == 0
*/

// bitmap_writer.go
func (bw *firstTimeBitmapWriter) Finish() {
// store curByte into the bitmap
     if bw.length >0&& bw.bitMask !=0x01|| bw.pos < bw.length {
          bw.buf[int(bw.byteOffset)] = bw.curByte   // <---- Panic index
     }
}
{code}
In every case, when the panic occurs, bw.byteOffset == len(bw.Buf). I tested 
the below modification and it does remedy the bug. However, it's probably only 
masking the actual bug.
{code:go}
// Test version: No Panic
func (bw *firstTimeBitmapWriter) Finish() {
        // store curByte into the bitmap
        if bw.length > 0 && bw.bitMask != 0x01 || bw.pos < bw.length {
                if bw.byteOffset == len(bw.Buf) {
                     bw.buf = append(bw.buf, bw.curByte)
                } else {
                     bw.buf[int(bw.byteOffset)] = bw.curByte
               }
        }
}{code}
