On MacOs, starting with Big Sur 11.0.1, the system dynamic libraries are no longer directly accessible on disk. They are still available through dlopen and friends. For getting access to the images (and their debug symbol), Apple provides, in the developper kit, the tools to extract the files. Note that this is handled as a database of all system libraries, where ASLR is in place such that segments of a given library are no longer contiguous in memory (dbghelp doesn't currently handle this). Apart from not having image information nor debug information, another side effect is that dbghelp tries every time it refreshes the mach-o module list to reload any library for which it didn't have an image file. This can be lengthy (esp when a typical process has more than 300 modules loaded). This patch forces the creation of the dbghelp module even if the image file isn't found. This patch cuts startup time of 'winedbg notepad' from 9.9 to 7.4s. YMMV. Signed-off-by: Eric Pouech <epouech@codeweavers.com>
