ARM64 assembly debugging on M1?

[jtmaston]

Hi!
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around using the debugger on m1 to debug pure assembly code ( sources in .s file, using armv8 instruction set ). So far, I've managed to get the debugger to stop on exceptions, but it does not recognize my sources ( giving me a "Source location: unknown" ).

Here's my settings.json:

{
    "cmake.sourceDirectory": "${workspaceFolder}/Code/calculator",
    "cmake.platform": "arm64",
    "C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider": "ms-vscode.cmake-tools",
    "lldb.library": "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework/Versions/A/LLDB",
    "lldb.launch.sourceLanguages": [
        "asm",
    ],
    "lldb.launch.relativePathBase": "${workspaceFolder}/Code/calculator/src",
    "lldb.showDisassembly": "always",
    "lldb.verboseLogging": true,
    "lldb.suppressMissingSourceFiles": false
}

My launch.json is the minimal example you provide.

Any help would be appreciated!

Platform: Apple M1, MacOS 12.

It's just like any other source level debugging. Please check that you actually have correct debug into for your binary. Use debug_info command to dump the list of compilation units.
