Bug Native Crash - il2cpp\libil2cpp\vm\Reflection.cpp:171

Hello, after the new release we encounter this crash that affects 20%+ of Android and iOS sessions; please see the platforms stack trace. Seems like it's Unity related... Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Unity 2021.3.12f1, also tested on 2021.3.16f1, both has the same issue

Thank you for your time and support.

 

Hello, thank you for your quick reply.

I’ve made a more detailed research of native stack trace crash (see attached) at _CombatMaster.Battle15.cpp:6970 and I found a matched C# code — please see screenshot attached.

It seems like a Unity exception when we try to make “exception to string”…

Could you please look into it and share your thoughts. Thank you!

 

I can't create a bug report because I can't reproduce it locally. But as a workaround, I turned off all the logs in the game and the collection of stack traces and... the crash disappeared!

 

We have similar stack trace, the crash happens after an exception being raised in Forget method of UniTask

Hi, @JoshPeterson

Looking into the implementation of

get_base_method

in IL2CPP and Mono, I found in Mono it checks if slot is valid before accessing vtable:

Code (CSharp):

1. if (klass == method->klass)
2.     return method;
3.  
4. /*This is possible if definition == FALSE.
5. * Do it here to be really sure we don't read invalid memory.
6. */
7. if (slot >= m_class_get_vtable_size (klass))
8.     return method;
9.  
10. mono_class_setup_vtable (klass);
11.  
12. result = m_class_get_vtable (klass) [slot];
13.  

But in IL2CPP, it uses slot to access vtable directly:

Code (CSharp):

1. if (klass == method2->klass)
2.     return method;
3.  
4. il2cpp::vm::Class::Init(klass);
5.  
6. result = klass->vtable[method2->slot].method;

Based on it, I tried to create a situation to test:

1. Create a dll, which contains a class 'A' which contains a virtual method 'Foo'
2. Create another dll, which contains a class 'B' which inherits class 'A' and overrides method 'Foo'
3. Remove "virtual" from method 'Foo' in 'A' and recompile the first dll
4. Copy the precompiled dlls created in step 2 and 3 into a Unity project
5. Call GetCustomAttributes for method 'foo' in 'B' in Unity

It can reproduce a similar crash in 2021.3.28 definitely:

The project has been submitted: IN-48686.

Not sure if this is the same issue with the posts above.

Update:
Unity QA reproduced the crash: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/is...r-start-up-when-getcustomattributes-is-called
