[llvm-dev] Kaleidoscope Tutorial Chapter #4: externs crash REPL

[Lajos Vétek via llvm-dev]

Hi,

I am working myself through the LLVM Kaleidoscope tutorials, with a current
(git master) llvm build on a Mac OS X 10.13.5. I must say the tutorial is
realy a good read, and it is great fun to work through the examples...
Up until Chapter 4 everything was working as expected, but  in Chapter 4 I
ran into some issues. I cannot get the extern (dlsym-d) function to work in
another function.
Declaring the external prototype and using it as a top level expression
works:

ready> extern sin(a);

ready> Read extern:

declare double @sin(double)


ready> sin(1);

ready> Evaluated to 0.841471

Unfortunatly as soon as the external function is used in another def-d
function body, the REPL crashes:

ready> def test(b) sin(b);

ready> Read function definition:

define double @test(double %b) {

entry:

  %calltmp = call double @sin(double %b)

  ret double %calltmp

}


ready> test(1);

ready> Failure value returned from cantFail wrapped call

Is it something related to OS X? Or is there something known in git master
that temporary disabled the dynamic loading of extern functions?
