Hi guys. I am having a problem with a function called _copy_to_raw_memory() in the file rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/asmmemmgr.py. After building PyPy there is always a crash in this function. Here is a partial backtrace I captured:
* thread #1, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=2, address=0x104100000)

With the help of print() statements I was able to find the exact line that was causing the problem. It is this:
dst[j] = block.data[j]
I have tried printing the values for these variables but that doesn't compile. I can't be sure the two variables are set correctly. Using type() on these two variables also doesn't compile. Even comparing the two variables to None doesn't work. How can I figure out what is wrong with this code? Please let me know if you need more information. Thank you.
