K4os.Compression.LZ4: Segfault in Unity 2018.3.8 compiled on Android using IL2CPP

When running a Unity 2018.3.8 app on Android compiled with IL2CPP, I’m getting a SIGSEGV when calling LZ4Codec.Decode(). The encoded data is coming from a server running .Net Core 2.1 on Linux, encoded with LZ4Codec.Encode(). Everything works fine when running Unity in editor, I’m experience the segfault only on Android devices. Do you have any idea what could be going wrong in this build scenario?

Josep,

Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like the code here will do an unaligned memory access, which is not allowed on armv7, hence the crash. Mono works in this case because it generates code that is less efficient than IL2CPP, and does only aligned memory access.

With IL2CPP, we have chosen to convert the C# code as-is, so that the generated code will do unaligned access if the C# code does.

I would recommend following up with the library developer - although looking at the Github issue thread, that might already be the case.

Please let me know if you have any questions about this issue. Thanks again!
