[llvm-dev] Problems generating Mach-O File (x86_64 , osx 10.12)

[Jean-Daniel via llvm-dev]

LLD Mach-O support was experimental and AFAIK it is unmaintained. It lacks a lots of features to be usable. The only supported linker on macOS is ld64.

> Investigating the code, it seems that the problem is that the asm code generated in the file StubPass.cpp, specifically in the line 323 <https://github.com/llvm-mirror/lld/blob/master/lib/ReaderWriter/MachO/StubsPass.cpp#L323> ,when it adds, what it seems an arbitrary number (12) to the offset into the lazy bind opcodes section, but it should be calculated depending on the MachONormalizedFileBinaryWrite::lazyBindingInfo result.
> 
> I confirmed this bug by patching the code manually in the binary and writing the right offset in the asm code (__stub_helper). I'm yet not familiarized with the code , so i can't fix it right now , Im unable to find the information of the symbols that MachONormalizedFileBinaryWrite::buildLazyBindInfo has ,since is generated after the pass.
