What did you do?

Tried to install the main package

What did you expect to see?

A successful linking and executable for the macOS platform.

What did you see instead?

The following error:

go install Output
# github.com/triztian/dwarfunk
/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.12.5/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/link: /usr/local/Cellar/go/1.12.5/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/link: combining dwarf failed: Unknown load command 0x80000018 (2147483672)

Notes

I've created the following repo to reproduce the issue:

The subpackage github.com/triztian/dwarfunk/lib contains an objective-c file and successfully builds using the go build command:

go build ./lib

I've noticed that if I edit the objc.m file and remove the following line, then the go install command works.

Looking at the following CL, it seems like the command is not part of the list:

Could it be that the the command has to be added and OR ed as depicted in the ruby-macho library?

Problem appears to be here I think. Looks like the constant defined for LC_LOAD_WEAK_DYLIB is incorrect. I will send a patch.

Awesome, thank you for the quick response, it probably has to be more like 0x80000018

Hi @triztian

I've made an attempt to adapt your reproducer as a testcase -- see https://golang.org/cl/178726. My first attempt is problematic in that I it contains code that doesn't work with older versions of MacOS, e.g. 10.11, since it refers to the UserNotifications framework.

I can add guards via #ifdef to insure that those constructs are conditionally compiled based on the OS version, e.g.

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#if (__ENVIRONMENT_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__>101300)
#import <UserNotifications/UserNotifications.h>
#endif

however I can't use the same trick with the cgo directives. Something like

#if (__ENVIRONMENT_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__>101300)
#cgo darwin LDFLAGS: -framework Foundation -framework UserNotifications
#endif

doesn't have the desired effect, since cgo doesn't run the C preprocessor.

A question for you: is it possible to reproduce the same DWARF issue without using the newer framework (e.g. just using something from the Foundation framework)?

Thanks, Than

OK, I think I have a revised testcase that works.

@thanm I stumbled into the issue randomly because I was trying to use the UserNotifications framework from Go.

I don't have an alternative way to reproduce that issue. I could look into how we can get the compiler to produce a binary that specifically uses that MACH-O command.

Ah, from looking at the revised test case, did you try different frameworks randomly?, curious about it.

Thank you for looking into this issue!

cmd/link: revise test case to work on pre-10.14 macos
4c05525 
Rework this recently introduced test case to insure that it works with
older versions of the OS. It was using a new framework library not
available on pre-10.14 to trigger the weak symbol reference; switch to
using a new symbol from an existing library. Tested on MacOS 10.14 and
10.11.

Updates #32233.
