Symbols are not included in macho binary

[danielchasehooper]

Zig Version

0.11.0-dev.449+665eba93c

Steps to Reproduce and Observed Behavior

reproduced on a M1 Pro running macOS 13.1

1. Put this in a file named deploy.zig:

   
   const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() !void { var gpaimpl = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator(.{}){}; try std.fs.cwd().deleteTree("build"); = try std.fs.cwd().makeOpenPath("build", .{}); var static_dir = try std.fs.cwd().openIterableDir("static", .{}); var in_file = try static_dir.dir.openFile("bla", .{ .mode = .readonly }); = try in_file.readToEndAlloc(gpa_impl.allocator(), 50 * 1_048_576); }

2. compile with `zig build-exe deploy.zig`
3. open Instruments.app
4. file>New
5. choose the `time profiler` template 
6. in the top left of the resulting window, click your computer's name -> submenu -> `choose target..`
7. locate the `deploy` binary you generated in step 2
8. click the record button in the main instruments window
9. after recording is complete, select the `time profiler` instrument row
10. show the detail area with cmd+0

the function addresses are not symbolicated

### Expected Behavior

stack traces should be symbolicated. If I comment out any line in the above code, recompile, then rerecord from instruments, the stack traces are suddenly symbolicated.

Thanks for the report @danielchasehooper!

Could you re-check if this now fixed for you in latest master? It worked for me with Zig version 0.11.0-dev.2374+a329450aa

[danielchasehooper]

Yes, fixed in 0.11.0-dev.2652+8ba937c78

This appears to have reverted? Like @danielchasehooper, I get symbols in 0.11.0-dev.2652+8ba937c78 but I don't from the latest (0.11.0-dev.2892+fd6200eda)

I will reopen and investigate. Intel or M1?

[karlseguin]

M2

[kubkon]

I'll re-test with latest master locally on the M1 and see if it regressed, and report back.

Same issue here with https://github.com/pcarrier/zgraph

@kubkon Since this bug seems to be sensitive to the code that goes into the binary, I think it'd be worthwhile to go back to the zig version this was filed under and determining the root cause, even if its unreproducible on latest zig. It's possible that it stops reproducing in new builds due to changes in the standard library, and not because the underlying issue was fixed.

The symbols work for me with -O Debug, but seem to be missing with -O ReleaseFast -fno-strip. Is that expected?

This still happens with 0.12.0-dev.888+130227491
