Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @alexcrichton (or someone else) soon.

If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes.

Please see the contribution instructions for more information.

Thanks for the PR and seems like a nifty solution! Could comments be added to the code though indicating why this fallback is being used?

I have confirmed that this fixes the massive performance issue we were having with MacOS 10.13 (https://travis-ci.org/ehuss/cargo/builds/461986852). I think the same fix will need to be applied to rustup as well.

I'm actually not sure why rustup sets DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH at all. rustc is linked in such a way that @rpath is @loader_path/../lib. Probably don't want to completely remove it, but I don't see what its purpose is now.

@ehuss I think at the time it was added to rustup it may not have been configured right? Or was otherwise targeted at getting things like rustc plugins working (which have sort of long since gone away...). In any case, can investigate that later.

That's good news though! @MarcusCalhoun-Lopez would you be up for adding rationale plus some other comments to this to land it?

ping @MarcusCalhoun-Lopez have you had a chance to take another look at this?

Thank you for the reminder @alexcrichton. I add further comments either today or tomorrow.

When loading and linking a dynamic library or bundle, dlopen
searches in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, PWD, and
DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH.
In the Mach-O format, a dynamic library has an "install path."
Clients linking against the library record this path, and the
dynamic linker, dyld, uses it to locate the library.
dyld searches DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH *before* the install path.
dyld searches DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH only if it cannot
find the library in the install path.
Setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH can easily have unintended
consequences.

Sorry for the delay, but I have added more information in the commit message and in the code comments.

I'm concerned that this overrides the default $(HOME)/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib. Anything expecting libraries in those locations that aren't encoded in @rpath will start to fail. I don't know how likely that is, though. I don't know under which circumstances libraries aren't found via @rpath (or why setting DYLD_*_PATH is ever necessary). To be on the safe side, maybe it should include the defaults?

It might also be helpful to include a note that beginning in 10.13 DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH exhibits a significant performance penalty, so that bit of knowledge isn't lost.

@bors: r+

Ok this seems good to me to go ahead and land, but @ehuss want to follow up with appending the default and adding a small note about performance too?

Fix default DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH on MacOS.

On MacOS, dyld uses the default `$(HOME)/lib:/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib` for `DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH` when it is not set.  #6355 switched cargo to use `DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH`, which means the default paths no longer worked. This explicitly adds the defaults back to the end of the list.

Fixes #6623
