dotnet crash on macOS

[enricosada]

from @dustinmoris:

It seems like the latest Ionide version 3.34.0 causes dotnet to crash unexpectedly on macOS.
Steps to reproduce:

• Open .NET Core F# project in VS Code with Ionide
• A few seconds later I'll get a popup saying that dotnet crashed
  F# Intellisense stops working, etc.

When I revert back to version 3.33.0 then everything works fine again.

ref ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp#1039

Ionide v3.33.0 => FSAC b692de8
Ionide v3.34.0 => FSAC bd342d2

This is affecting Fable too 😞

[enricosada]

I’ll generate a test version with don’s fix and we’ll try if I’d enough.
Otherwise we need to use previous FCS

[alfonsogarciacaro]

Which fix? This? dotnet/fsharp#6380

[baronfel]

dotnet/fsharp#6355 this is the interesting one. I'm ready to merge it into FCS and do a release as soon as it lands in master, though I suppose I could cherry pick it as it is and do a prerelease.

[enricosada]

Yes, i want to use a FCS with that cherry picked.
I didn’t yet got a way to get the stack trace of the stackoverflow on Mac, to see is the same error

[alfonsogarciacaro]

Damn, I tried cherry-picking dotnet/fsharp@e5fcd48 into the FCS fork we're using, rebuilt and copied to assembly to Fable, but I'm still getting the SO exception :/

[alfonsogarciacaro]

I noticed the cherry-pick hasn't updated the file timestamps and the CallFsYacc and CallFsLex targets were being skipped. This brought some hope, I run git clean -xfd and then built again, but still getting SO exceptions on macOS 😭

[alfonsogarciacaro]

Anyways, I tried pushing a new fable-compiler with the updated FCS and @MangelMaxime reports it's now working for his project that used to crash before, so maybe it's an improvement at the end (I'm still getting the SO exception when trying to compile Fable itself on macOS). cc @ncave

[baronfel]

My crashes were all related to lexing, so I'm hopeful that the fix solves my particular issue as well. I found that out by configuring my environment to take a core dump when the process crashed and loading the dump into lldb with the libsosplugin.dylib for macos.

[enricosada]

@baronfel can you document in a gist or somewhere the process to get the dump + lldb? will be really useful

I'll push a new FSAC with update FCS ( ref #359 )

[baronfel]

I'm getting the same as @alfonsogarciacaro, my largeish work solution still stackoverflows on FCS 28 one the netcore runtime

[enricosada]

there is a minimal repro with https://github.com/sjanahan/ionide-crash/tree/master thanks to @sjanahan

crash in osx only

the original codebase crashed also Rider (with stackoverflow backend-err.log ) but there is not yet a minimal repro for Rider
