Error Details

The tvOS CoreCLR test app crashes during runtime initialization, before test discovery. A generic Dictionary constructor needed by AppContext.Setup was stripped from the ReadyToRun image:

Fatal error.
A method body required at runtime was stripped from the ReadyToRun image.
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[[System.__Canon, System.Private.CoreLib, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e],[System.__Canon, System.Private.CoreLib, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e]]..ctor(Int32, System.Collections.Generic.IEqualityComparer`1<System.__Canon>)
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[[System.__Canon, System.Private.CoreLib, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e],[System.__Canon, System.Private.CoreLib, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e]]..ctor(Int32)
   at System.AppContext.Setup(Char**, Char**, Int32, System.Exception*)

The process terminates with SIGABRT (Abort trap: 6), and XHarness reports APP_CRASH with exit code 80. No test results are produced.

This is the same Apple-mobile ReadyToRun IL-body-stripping failure class as #130570. That issue was mitigated for specific projects by #130468. System.Net.Security.Unit.Tests.csproj currently does not disable PublishReadyToRunStripILBodies.

The preceding runtime-extra-platforms build, 1538577, passed this tvOS CoreCLR job, so this instance is newly exposed in build 1540423.
