build on mac

[thushw]

I'm on MacOS Monterey (12.2.1) and hit an issue trying to build the plugin with r2pm -ci r2frida. Could you help?

...
...
make io_frida.dylib
r2pm -r src/r2frida-compile -H src/_agent.h -o src/_agent.js -Sc src/agent/index.ts
make[1]: *** [src/_agent.js] Error 11
make: *** [all] Error 2
Build failed
mkdir -p /"/Users/thushara/.local/share/radare2/plugins"
mkdir -p /"/Users/thushara/.local/share/radare2/prefix/bin"
rm -f "//Users/thushara/.local/share/radare2/plugins/io_frida.dylib"
cp -f io_frida.dylib* /"/Users/thushara/.local/share/radare2/plugins"
cp: io_frida.dylib*: No such file or directory

This looks like a segfault on the typescript compiler of the frida sdk. Are you on x64?

[thushw]

Yes, it is a 6-Core Intel Core i7

Try running with lldb — src/r2frida-compile -H src/_agent.h -o src/_agent.js -Sc src/agent/index.ts

Maybe you need to “r2pm -r sh” to set the proper environment. Will be useful to have a backtrace of the crash

[thushw]

It might be my compiler, the lldb command unfortunately did not work :

Its a double dash “lldb — ..” instead of “lldb - ..”

[thushw]

Many thanks for helping me through this! lldb drops me to a shell like this, where I typed run (I figure this is a debugger) It looked like it worked (exit code 0)

Can you try again? those segfaults in r2frida-compile are usually bugs in Frida, and we use to suffer them on Android. but we cant do much from r2frida to address them apart from using a precompiled agent by installing the r2frida-precompiled package
