How do you run the linter? And what is a structure of your project?
The logs has this error:

Can't run linter unused: buildir: failed to load package net: could not load export data: no export data for \"net\"

Probably something wrong with you net package

Hello, I'm running golangci-lint run on the parent directory of the projects src directory.

The same commands works on my linux system with the same version of golang and golangci-lint. I am unable to debug why its failing to run on jenkins. I'm also using go mod for package management with the go.mod file inside the src directory.

Also, I dont think anything is wrong with net package, as I am able to build the project perfectly fine in jenkins

I was seeing the same problem with Go installed from official binaries (i.e. https://golang.org/doc/install). It turned out that net imports cgo_linux, which in turn is including netdb.h.
Bottom line: needed to install gcc and libc-dev packages.
Guess that (some) linters are not differentiating between pure-Go/CGo based implementations, like the compiler itself does?

EDIT: Actually, explicitly setting CGO_ENABLED=0 seems to work, too.

Thank you @KenjiTakahashi

I was finally able to get it working. I will close the issue as the problem is solved.
