Bug ID: 96973 Summary: No backtrace for cc1 on x86_64-apple-darwin Product: gcc Version: 11.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libbacktrace Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu.org CC: ian at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- On x86_64-apple-darwin, internal errors in the compiler are not displaying backtraces. For example this code: $ cat ../../z1.f90 program p type ta integer :: a end type type t type(ta), pointer :: b end type type(t) :: z data z / t(ta(1)) / end is giving me: $ ./f951 ../../z1.f90 p main Analyzing compilation unit f951: internal compiler error: in record_reference, at cgraphbuild.c:64 libbacktrace could not find executable to open The message about not finding an executable is from fileline.c in fileline_initialize(). There, it's trying to find the executable in several steps. - state->filename is NULL - getexecname() is not available on darwin - the /proc filesystem is not either - the BSD-specific function sysctl_exec_name() is not present either I am wondering how this is supposed to work. Probably state->filename should be set in the first place.
