What did you do?

I have an iOS project using a go library via gomobile:

Running on an arm64 device (any modern iPhone)
Calling a method that takes and returns []byte
A ton of invocations. This is affecting randomly about 1-2% of users of our app.

The golang code is simple:

type Panicker interface {
	Panic([]byte) ([]byte, error)
}

type PanickerImpl struct {
}

func (p *PanickerImpl) Panic(b []byte) ([]byte, error) {
	return make([]byte, len(b)), nil
}

func Init() {
	debug.SetTraceback("crash")
}

And on swift:

PanickerInit()

let p = PanickerPanickerImpl()
let d = Data(repeating: 1, count: 10)
for _ in 1...10_000_000 {
      let r = try p.panic(d)
      XCTAssertEqual(r.count, d.count)
}

A full working reproduction project is at https://github.com/champo/gomobile_panic

What did you expect to see?

No crash.

What did you see instead?

It sometimes crashes inside bulkBarrierPreWrite:

I tried exposing a free function with a similar signature but no crashers there. Removing the paramters or return values seems to avoid the crash too.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

rayvbr · 2021-06-25T18:19:24Z

I've encountered this problem as well in the past, issue started with Go 1.16 (1.15 seems unaffected). In my case I had a function signature func DoSomething(i int32, s string) (string, error). Changing that to func DoSomething(s string, i int32) (string, error) resolved the issue. I never really understood why

hilariocoelho · 2021-06-28T16:31:25Z

I had the same issue using Go 1.16. Reverted to Go 1.13 and it works fine. Also just affected a few users and couldn't reproduce it consistently.

marinthiercelin · 2021-07-21T15:51:40Z

I have experienced the same issue using https://github.com/ProtonMail/gopenpgp in an iOS app (with gomobile).
The issue has been reproduced when building the library with golang 1.16, 1.16.5 and 1.16.6.
Building with golang 1.15.14 works fine.

elagergren-spideroak · 2021-12-17T08:53:04Z

Can consistently repro with 1.17.x on iOS. It occurs when calling into Go from C. The stack frame C sets up for Go is four-byte aligned, which makes it likely that the address of the results aren't properly aligned, and therefore casues typedmemmove to crash. For exampe: _cgoexp_432d4433717a_proxygolib_Client_Query(0x16f8557d4).

I think this is a cmd/cgo problem, not x/mobile. cc: @ianlancetaylor

elagergren-spideroak · 2022-01-03T18:22:05Z

An update: we patched cmd/cgo with __attribute__((aligned(8))) and it fixes the problem.

hilariocoelho · 2022-01-03T22:00:30Z

@elagergren-spideroak when should we expect a release that fixes it, do you have any idea?

elagergren-spideroak · 2022-01-04T17:31:28Z

I am not a member of the Go team, so I am not the person to ask. However, I'm going to submit a CL with the patch to get things started.

sanderdekoning · 2022-01-16T13:53:40Z

Bump - just ran into this: fatal error: bulkBarrierPreWrite: unaligned arguments

sanderdekoning · 2022-01-18T18:03:20Z

@elagergren-spideroak just to know if I/we can assist in any way, the current status is what exactly? Thanks for letting us know how you fixed it!

champo · 2022-01-24T16:30:27Z

@elagergren-spideroak thanks for looking into this! Did you get a chance to make the CL? If you didn't, I'd really appreciate a gist so I can patch locally for the time being. I just got a new batch of ocurrences of this I can't seem to sidestep :(

elagergren-spideroak · 2022-01-24T18:04:01Z

How we've fixed it for our iOS builds is by replacing

go/src/cmd/cgo/out.go

Line 1005 in 97e740e

    
           fmt.Fprintf(fgcc, "\ttypedef %s %v _cgo_argtype;\n", ctype, p.packedAttribute())

with

fmt.Fprintf(fgcc, "\ttypedef %s %v __attribute__((aligned(8))) _cgo_argtype;\n", ctype, p.packedAttribute())

champo · 2022-01-27T20:35:42Z

Thanks @elagergren-spideroak! Just tested it out and works great 👌

alock · 2022-02-28T18:21:48Z

I am not a member of the Go team, so I am not the person to ask. However, I'm going to submit a CL with the patch to get things started.

@elagergren-spideroak Where you able to create a CL? If so can you share the link to follow here.

Irregularly typedmemmove and bulkBarrierPreWrite crashes on unaligned arguments. By aligning the arguments on 8 bytes this is fixed. Fixes golang#46893

gopherbot · 2022-05-25T07:37:03Z

Change https://go.dev/cl/408395 mentions this issue: cmd/cgo: fix unaligned arguments typedmemmove crash on iOS

lixin9311 · 2022-07-07T02:17:39Z

Thanks for the fix. It fixed our runtime.raise_trampoline crashed.

junyang100 · 2022-07-08T03:13:34Z

I just started using Golang. Can anyone tell me if I need to recompile the Golang or just need to rebuild my project after I change the source code

jeffrrogers · 2022-12-16T19:08:36Z

@gopherbot
This still seems to be an issue when running on ARM architecture (MacOS M1 or iOS devices). We compiled our framework with Go version 1.19.4 on both Intel and M1 machines, and it runs fine on Intel machine simulators, but crashes intermittently on M1 machine simulators and iOS devices. This was supposed to be fixed in 1.19.2 right? Here is the stack trace we get for our crash:

I don't think this has actually been fixed yet. There is a CL (https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/408395) but it hasn't been checked in yet.
#55122 has been fixed and backported, but I don't think that's the same issue as this one. This one has to do with cgo.

Irregularly typedmemmove and bulkBarrierPreWrite crashes on unaligned arguments. By aligning the arguments on 8 bytes this is fixed. Fixes golang#46893 (cherry picked from commit f0cb9ff)

This issue persist on 1.21.5.

A slightly simpler repro of the issue (fatal error: bulkBarrierPreWrite: unaligned arguments), run this in a tight loop from iOS on Apple Silicon:

func (p *Server) GoPanicIssue(_ string) ([]byte, error) {
	return []byte{0}, nil
}

Not able to repro with the suggested cgo alignment fix

I ran into the same issue for the Go library we are writing: random crashes on iOS, with similar error messages.

I can confirm that a build done with a Go toolchain that includes the suggested fix does not crash.

This is still an issue with the latest go 1.22.1 on arm64.

We've been running the suggested patch for some time, with no adverse effects, so why we can't just get it merged in is a complete mystery.

Is anyone watching these issues?

randall77 · 2024-03-13T14:20:44Z

The patch was never finished by the author.

creamwhip · 2024-03-13T14:32:38Z

@randall77 this is completely perfect as a fix:

How we've fixed it for our iOS builds is by replacing

go/src/cmd/cgo/out.go

Line 1005 in 97e740e

fmt.Fprintf(fgcc, "\ttypedef %s %v _cgo_argtype;\n", ctype, p.packedAttribute())

with
fmt.Fprintf(fgcc, "\ttypedef %s %v __attribute__((aligned(8))) _cgo_argtype;\n", ctype, p.packedAttribute())

randall77 · 2024-03-13T15:21:10Z

Sure, it works, but that doesn't mean the patch is perfect.
If you read the CL comments, it's not right for 32-bit systems, and there's no test.

Our users can confirm this is a showstopper for us using GoMobile. Our apps renders useless without that patch. Have no idea how to express it in a test or fix it for 32-bits, though ons. 13. mars 2024 kl. 20:25 skrev GopherBot ***@***.***>:

Although the patch seems to focus on forcing the alignment of a variable in cgo-generated code, the problem seems to be that the stack is not aligned to what Go expects. Is that correct? That suggests that a better fix would be to align the stack pointer when calling from C to Go.

On iOS arm64, irregular typedmemmove and bulkBarrierPreWrite crashes on unaligned arguments. By aligning the arguments on `PtrSize` bytes this is fixed. The included test attempts to reproduce with golang#46893 (comment). Fixes golang#46893

To bump this issue: we ran into it in our first few days of experimenting with gomobile for our iOS project. As noted above, this (abandoned?) fix resolves the problem: https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/571375/5/src/cmd/cgo/out.go

I would not have expected to need to modify and compile the toolchain, but it seems like gomobile doesn't work without this for iOS. We're not doing anything special as far as I can tell, just a gomobile bind library for an iOS app.
