Can't find debug info in Mach-o executable
idealvin opened this issue · comments
Problem
I tried to get the stack info with libbacktrace on failure of C++ programs on mac os. My C++ code is compiled with -fno-pie, -g, but libbacktrace gave an error output: no debug info in Mach-O executable.
Environment
- mac os 10.13.6
- Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.10.44.4)
Is lldb able to find the debug info? Can you find out where lldb is looking for it? Thanks.

yes, I have tried lldb:
vin@Mac co]$ cd build/macosx/x86_64/release/
vin@Mac release]$ lldb ./stack
(lldb) target create "./stack"
Current executable set to './stack' (x86_64).

(lldb) Run without lldb(I use backtrace_full() to get the stack info):

Segmentation fault (core dumped)Thanks. I don't have a macOS system. Can you run lldb under the macOS equivalent of strace to find out where it is getting the debug info? If it is not in the main executable it is probably in some related file. libbacktrace already has code to find that related file (https://github.com/ianlancetaylor/libbacktrace/blob/master/macho.c#L856). Perhaps we need an additional case there or something.

Sorry, I didn't quite get run lldb under the macOS equivalent of strace to find out where it is getting the debug info.
My test code is here.
The executable stack is built from stack.cc, and it depends on a static library libco.a.
I got the following output with lldb:

Thanks, but that's not what I need to know.
The compiler puts debug info somewhere, and lldb reads the debug info in order to debug. libbacktrace also needs the same debug info. Where is the compiler putting that debug info? Where is lldb reading the debug info from?

Is there any command to detect that?
I am not very familiar with macOS. On Linux, I can do this:
strace -f -e openat lldb ./hello
and get output that shows me every file that lldb opens. On my system I see

ok, thanks, I'll try it later tonight.
Maybe I have found the problem. We used a different sysroot on mac os.
"/usr/bin/xcrun -sdk macosx clang++" -o build/macosx/x86_64/release/xx build/.objs/xx/macosx/x86_64/release/test/xx.cc.o -arch x86_64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.13 -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk -stdlib=libc++ -Lbuild/macosx/x86_64/release -lco -lbacktrace -lpthread -ldl -lzThe sysroot is set as the root directory of xcode sdk.

Entitlements.plist SDKSettings.plist usr/
SDKSettings.json System/
vin@Mac MacOSX10.14.sdk]$ ls usr/lib/system/libunwind*
usr/lib/system/libunwind.tbdI don't know why a different sysroot or SDK directory would matter, unless clang is storing the debug information there for some reason.
I got the following result with dtruss, It seems that lldb found debug info from /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/lib.
