Hi All
Hope you're all safe and well.
You're probably already aware of this but just in case.
When trying to debug on Apple M1, it comes back with "rosetta error: failed to allocate vm space for aot".
Just wondering if there's any recommendations please.
Love your work 馃槉馃憤

Go doesn't officially support darwin/arm64 until go1.16, delve won't ufficially support go1.16 until 1.6.0, we don't have access to darwin/arm64 machines to port delve to them so support for delve on darwin/arm64 is unplanned. It's highly unlikely that debuggers can work through rosetta.

I have started with a darwin-arm64 branch on my fork here. https://github.com/oxisto/delve/tree/darwin-arm64
I basically just started this a couple of hours ago. The native code seems to compile (I am pretty sure it is not functional yet), but Go still throws some link errors. I am not too familiar with that kind of low level programming, so I need some more prep time to fully understand all of it.
Beware, you need a recent Go version that can compile darwin/arm64, i.e. installed using go tip.
Update : Ah, looks like I was going down the wrong route using the native backend. I think I might need to have a better understanding of delve first, I will continue with this tomorrow.

The native code has always had problems, the backend that's being used by default is in pkg/proc/gdbserial, I would focus on that.

Thanks for the pointer in the right direction. I have begun working in this direction on a second fork (https://github.com/oxisto/delve/tree/darwin-arm64-lldb) just by duplicating code for the gdbserver for arm64 now. Spawning an executable works but setting a breakpoint already crashes. I will continue working in this direction then. I will also apply for the mailing list, as you would like to move the discussion there and not on the GitHub issues if I have seen the guidelines correctly.

Is is possible to test a fork of version currently, or is this issue still awaiting other changes? (:
