// This is a clever but incredibly lazy patch. On arm64, the first five
// instructions of _dyld_start are as follows:
//
// 		mov    x0, sp
// 		and    sp, x0, #~15
// 		mov    fp, #0
// 		mov    lr, #0
// 		b      start
//
// We need to bump sp down a bit due to injecting DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES, but
// because of thread_set_state_allowed we can't set it directly. So we inject
// instructions to do it in here. At process startup fp and lr happen to be set
// to 0 by the kernel already, which gives us the space to sneak in two extra
// instructions. (If we wanted to be slightly less lazy, we could take advantage
// of the kernel's laziness and align sp ourselves when writing the initial
// stack. This would let us overwrite the instruction aligning sp.)

Not sure if this is related to new changes because I have never used this on Sonoma before, but application I'm injecting into crashes for me.

Commenting out following line prevents crash if that gives some hint on what could be wrong.
ensure(vm_write(task, sp, reinterpret_cast<vm_offset_t>(strings.data()), strings.size()) == KERN_SUCCESS);

I suspect library_injector is crashing (and thus the process it injects into is also crashing because it isn't done with its work). Do you see any crash logs for that?

The library_injector itself doesn't crash, just the application.
Installed 14.4.1, got the same crash, then replaced if (__builtin_available(macOS 14.4, *)) with if (__builtin_available(macOS 14.5, *)) and then injection works on 14.4.1.

Hmm, I'll take a look. I guess this rolled out in 14.5?

The old path works on 14.4.1 so it seems.

This is definitely a noob question, but when signing this binary I'm assuming that I need an .entitlements file like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>com.apple.developer.endpoint-security.client</key>
	<true/>
</dict>
</plist>

and then I would run something like this?

codesign --force --sign "Apple Development: Steven Hepting (XXXXXXXXXX)" --entitlements entitlements.plist library_injector

@leochou0729 have you tried the new patch on intel yet?
