The Hunt for the iOS 18 Neural Engine Bug: A Long Weekend Investigation

This is the tale of a long weekend spent uncovering a mysterious iOS 18 Neural Engine bug—a journey of problem-solving in a system where full visibility is elusive, especially in the locked-down world of Apple’s platforms. But the process I followed is a general approach you can use for any opaque system. It all began last week when I stumbled upon a strange behavior in my iOS app. The output generated from a CoreML model was completely broken—something I had never seen before. And after some digging, I realized this only happened when the model was running on the Neural Engine of iOS 18. The first step was triage. I implemented a quick workaround in the app: if the device is running iOS 18, switch from the Neural Engine to the GPU. This temporarily solved the issue, but I had no idea why it worked or whether other CoreML models in the app’s pipeline might also be affected. Without a deeper understanding of the root cause, I knew I cou

resources to find what Apple/Asahi acronyms mean:

• check out this table
• search with site:asahilinux.org (maybe they talked about it in the blog)
• grep the linux and m1n1 repos

some other random acronyms, mostly peripherals of the SoC:

• AIC → Apple Interrupt Controller
• AP → Application Processor (where the OS runs)
• DART → Device Address Resolution Table (IOMMU)
