What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile a program using Go 1.2 on Mac OS 10.9 that uses CGO.  Set CC = a version of
GCC from home brew - http://brew.sh
2. Launch the program with gdb for debugging

What is the expected output?
gdb loads the symbols from the file and is able to step through the file

What do you see instead?
Following output from GDB:

Which compiler are you using (5g, 6g, 8g, gccgo)?
6g

Which operating system are you using?
Mac OS X 10.9

Which version are you using?  (run 'go version')
go version go1.2 darwin/amd64

Please provide any additional information below.
Debugging a program that does not directly use CGO works as expected.  GDB is able to
debug the same program on a Linux environment.

Comment 5:

The core Go team is not going to support alternate compilers. We support whatever Apple
ships with Xcode. If you build your own gcc with homebrew, I'm sorry but we just don't
have the bandwidth to keep up.

Labels changed: added release-none, removed release-go1.3maybe.

I can verify that this is still an issue on macOS using the dev tools bundled with Xcode.

facebook-github-bot pushed a commit to facebook/rocksdb that referenced this issue Oct 17, 2017
Summary:
As raised in #2265, the arena allocator will return memory that is improperly aligned to store a `std::function` on macOS. Oddly, I'm unable to tickle this bug without adding a `std::function` field to `struct ReadOptions`—but my proposal in #2265 does exactly that.

In any case, here's a simple reproduction. Apply this bogus patch to get a `std::function` into `struct ReadOptions`

```
 --- a/include/rocksdb/options.h
+++ b/include/rocksdb/options.h
@@ -1035,6 +1035,8 @@ struct ReadOptions {
   // Default: 0
   uint64_t max_skippable_internal_keys;

+  std::function<void()> foo;
+
   ReadOptions();
   ReadOptions(bool cksum, bool cache);
 };
```

then compile `db_properties_test` *with ubsan* and run `ReadLatencyHistogramByLevel`:

```
$ make COMPILE_WITH_UBSAN=1 db_properties_test
$ ./db_properties_test --gtest_filter=DBPropertiesTest.ReadLatencyHistogramByLevel
```

ubsan will complain about several misaligned accesses:

```

So it seems the root cause is that the internal implementation of `std::function` on macOS (and perhaps with libc++ generally?) requires 16-byte aligned memory, but the arena allocator only guarantees that the returned memory will be `sizeof(void*)` aligned, which is only 8-byte alignment on my machine. This patch solves the problem by adjusting the allocator to derive the necessary alignment from `alignof(std::max_align_t)`, which is properly 16 bytes on my machine.

As I mentioned in #2265, none of RocksDB's tests will cause this unaligned access to actually abort the process, but, on macOS, linking CockroachDB against a version of RocksDB with the above patch and letting it run for just a few seconds will cause a SIGABRT.

I'd get you a backtrace, but [Go doesn't include cgo debug information on macOS](golang/go#6942). I've also tried building against libc++ on Linux, where debug information would be available, but I can't seem to trigger the bug there.

In any case, this PR both fixes the segfault in CockroachDB and fixes the warnings reported by ubsan.
Closes #2347

I just hit this with the macOS standard compiler, too. Maybe a regression if it used to work per #6942 (comment)?

Getting this issue too with the standard compiler. @jmhodges did you figure out a solution to this?

Same here. Any known workaround at this point? Thanks.
