This is very interesting, I think it's not very common in Go to create a variable which refers to a method of a type that takes a pointer receiver and then call it standalone while "manually" passing a pointer to an object of the type into it.

As far as I understand you did that so you can mock the interface, right? I think the more common solution for that in Go would to just create an interface with the Addrs() method and then make privateNetworkInterfaces use the interface type. Unfortunately this might require breaking the content of the for loop in privateNetworkInterfaces out into a separate function.

However, I think this pattern works too, I was just surprised to see it.

I wanted to suggest the same but we also need to read the Name field from net.Interface which we can't put into an interface. We would need to defined our our interface with both Name() and Addrs() and then wrap net.Interface to our own interface.

Ic, I have missed the access to the .Name property.
(one of my long-time pet-peeves with Go is that you can't define a property as part of an interface)

In that case I agree that this solution is easier, because otherwise we'd have to wrap net.Interface in something which allows us to return the name via a function call, just to make the mocking work. that gets unnecessarily complicated...

Please add a test on a invalid address that fails to be parsed.

There is another test below that one, TestPrivateInterfaceError that tests an invalid address.

We also want a fallback mechanism. If unable to detect the interfaces, we should fallback to []string{"eth0", "en0"}. Since this is a logic we'll need in downstream projects too, you could define a function netutil.PrivateNetworkInterfacesWithFallback()

cfg.InfNames = netutil.PrivateNetworkInterfacesWithFallback([]string{"eth0", "en0"}, logger)
f.Var((*flagext.StringSlice)(&cfg.InfNames), prefix+"lifecycler.interface", "Name of network interface to read address from.")
f.StringVar(&cfg.Addr, prefix+"lifecycler.addr", "", "IP address to advertise in the ring.")
f.IntVar(&cfg.Port, prefix+"lifecycler.port", 0, "port to advertise in consul (defaults to server.grpc-listen-port).")
