Using PkarrPublisher on the macOS platform in release mode causes a segmentation fault.

[zh522130]

Environment:

• Operating System: macOS
• Architecture: x64_64
• Rust Version: 1.82.0 (This probably doesn't matter, as the issue existed before the upgrade)

How to reproduce?

Use .discovery_n0() in Endpoint::builder() for any iroh-net example, and run the example in release mode on macOS.

Commenting out the following code in discovery_n0 avoids the segmentation fault:

self.discovery.push(Box::new(|secret_key| {
    Some(Box::new(PkarrPublisher::n0_dns(secret_key.clone())))
}));

I tested it on macOS based on Apple Silicon (M4), and the results were consistent with x64.

[dignifiedquire]

you are saying it segfaults on arm as well? that’s very surprising, as I am using this actively on macos arm and we run full ci on that

[dignifiedquire]

are you by any chance cross compiling? or are you building on the target machines directly?

segfaults

I apologize for the confusion. After retesting on the M4, I realized there was no issue. My initial mistake was due to wrapping iroh-net for Flutter, where Rust segfaults don't crash the app. Seeing errors on the M4 from iroh-net led to my incorrect judgment. The issue might be related to my own code, and I need to investigate further.

no worries, appreciate the update. let us know what you find

I tested with the latest master code on x64 macos, and the segmentation fault still occurs.
