iOS: Attempting to JIT compile method '(wrapper dynamic-method) string object:lambda_method1 (System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Closure)' while running in aot-only mode.

[rolfbjarne]

Description

The following code throws an exception at runtime when running on an iOS device:

var foos = new string [] { "hi", "bye" };
string f = foos.AsQueryable ().First ();

Exception:

System.ExecutionEngineException: Attempting to JIT compile method '(wrapper dynamic-method) string object:lambda_method1 (System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Closure)' while running in aot-only mode. See https://docs.microsoft.com/xamarin/ios/internals/limitations for more information.

I suspect LambdaCompiler should always prefer interpretation instead of compilation on iOS.

https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/master/src/libraries/System.Linq.Expressions/src/System.Linq.Expressions.csproj#L6-L9

[steveisok]

@MaximLipnin See if you can reproduce and give Egor's suggestion a try after.

[MaximLipnin]

I faced a lot of library test failures with similar error in in #50510. I have no any ios device at hand so I'll try re-enabling System.Linq.Expresions test suite in the PR and see any related CI failures.

[steveisok]

@MaximLipnin try testing against the simulator with aot enabled. You should be able to take Rolf's example and alter the functional test to repro.

[MaximLipnin]

It's reproducible against the simulator when executing

1. ./build.sh -os iOSSimulator -arch x64 -c Release -s mono+libs
2. ./dotnet.sh build /t:Test /p:TargetOS=iOSSimulator /p:TargetArchitecture=x64 /p:Configuration=Release /p:RunAOTCompilation=true  /p:EnableAggressiveTrimming=true src/tests/FunctionalTests/iOS/Simulator/AOT/iOS.Simulator.Aot.Test.csproj

@EgorBo What would be the right way to apply your suggestion? When trying to set <IsInterpreting>true</IsInterpreting>
I get the following error:

/Users/maxim/.nuget/packages/microsoft.dotnet.apicompat/6.0.0-beta.21321.1/build/Microsoft.DotNet.ApiCompat.targets(145,5): error : TypesMustExist : Type 'System.Linq.Expressions.ExpressionCreator<TDelegate>' does not exist in the reference but it does exist in the implementation. [/Users/maxim/dev/runtime/src/libraries/System.Linq.Expressions/src/System.Linq.Expressions.csproj]
/Users/maxim/.nuget/packages/microsoft.dotnet.apicompat/6.0.0-beta.21321.1/build/Microsoft.DotNet.ApiCompat.targets(159,5): error : MatchingRefApiCompat failed - The reference assembly doesn't match all the APIs in the implementation for '/Users/maxim/dev/runtime/artifacts/bin/System.Linq.Expressions/net6.0-Release/System.Linq.Expressions.dll'. To address either fix errors in the reference assembly (referenced as implementation in compat errors for this reverse compat check), add the issues to the baseline file '/Users/maxim/dev/runtime/src/libraries/System.Linq.Expressions/src/MatchingRefApiCompatBaseline.txt' or disable this check by setting RunMatchingRefApiCompat=false in this project. [/Users/maxim/dev/runtime/src/libraries/System.Linq.Expressions/src/System.Linq.Expressions.csproj]

The System.Linq.Expressions.ExpressionCreator type is not in the reference assembly.

@ViktorHofer Not quite sure who to ask, but would you happen to know the answer to Maxim's question?
