What did you do?

Run the following code with command:

go run -trimpath -gcflags="-std" -ldflags="-linkmode internal" main.go

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"unsafe"
)

//go:linkname __NSDefaultRunLoopMode NSDefaultRunLoopMode
//go:cgo_import_dynamic NSDefaultRunLoopMode NSDefaultRunLoopMode "Cocoa.framework/Cocoa"
//go:cgo_import_static NSDefaultRunLoopMode
var __NSDefaultRunLoopMode byte
var NSDefaultRunLoopMode = (*struct{ _ uintptr })(unsafe.Pointer(&__NSDefaultRunLoopMode))

func main() {
	fmt.Printf("%#x\n", unsafe.Pointer(NSDefaultRunLoopMode)) // Show pointer address
	fmt.Printf("%x\n", NSDefaultRunLoopMode)                  // Dereference struct
}

What did you expect to see?

Program run without issue with output similar to what you get from external linking.

$ go run -trimpath -gcflags="-std" -ldflags="-linkmode external" main.go
0x1eb3299f8
&{1ed12dc58}

What did you see instead?

Program crashed when dereferencing the pointer.

$ go run -trimpath -gcflags="-std" -ldflags="-linkmode internal" main.go

additional information

If cgo_import_dynamic uses the one argument version the linker produces an undefined symbol.

# command-line-arguments
main.NSDefaultRunLoopMode: relocation target NSDefaultRunLoopMode not defined

Of course, the std flag is only kept in both to limit the number of differences and doesn't affect the output. This issue affects purego#114.

To be clear, the //go:cgo_import_dynamic and //go:cgo_import_static directives are not documented and are not supported in user code. We do not support code that uses them.

TotallyGamerJet · 2023-07-07T12:38:05Z

To be clear, the //go:cgo_import_dynamic and //go:cgo_import_static directives are not documented

I thought their documentation was found at cmd/cgo/doc.go?

and are not supported in user code. We do not support code that uses them.

I understand they are not supported in user code. However, they are used in the runtime and packages like golang.org/x/sys/unix which may be affected by this issue.

cherrymui · 2023-07-07T14:23:58Z

Currently, on macOS we only support cgo_import_dynamic for functions that are directly called. We don't yet support variables or taking address of a function. CL https://golang.org/cl/501855 may help. (Even with that, it probably only works if the code is written in a specific way.)

As @ianlancetaylor said, generally we don't support it in user code. We do handle the use cases that the runtime and syscall packages need. If you believe that is handled incorrectly, please file a specific issue for that. Thanks.

True. I meant that they aren't publicly documented. The documentation in cmd/cgo/doc.go is in a comment that describes the implementation but is not part of the user visible docs (https://pkg.go.dev/cmd/cgo).
