dealloc时取weakself引起崩溃

今天无意这中遇到一个奇怪的崩溃，先上引起崩溃的代码：

- (void)dealloc
{
    __weak __typeof(self)weak_self = self;
    NSLog(@"%@", weak_self);
}

当执行到dealloc的时候，程序就crash 掉了。
崩溃信息如下：

objc[4572]: Cannot form weak reference to instance (0x160f6f890) of class MFChatRoomBoardController. It is possible that this object was over-released, or is in the process of deallocation.

其中，可以在控制台明确看到这样一段描述:

objc[4572]: Cannot form weak reference to instance (0x160f6f890) of class MFChatRoomBoardController. It is possible that this object was over-released, or is in the process of deallocation.

说明不允许在 dealloc 的时候取 weak self.

查看了一下 weak_register_no_lock 的函数代码，找到问题所在。

id
weak_register_no_lock(weak_table_t *weak_table, id referent_id, id *referrer_id)
{
    objc_object *referent = (objc_object *)referent_id;
    objc_object **referrer = (objc_object **)referrer_id;

    if (!referent  ||  referent->isTaggedPointer()) return referent_id;

    // ensure that the referenced object is viable
    bool deallocating;
    if (!referent->ISA()->hasCustomRR()) {
        deallocating = referent->rootIsDeallocating();
    }
    else {
        BOOL (*allowsWeakReference)(objc_object *, SEL) =
            (BOOL(*)(objc_object *, SEL))
            object_getMethodImplementation((id)referent,
                                           SEL_allowsWeakReference);
        if ((IMP)allowsWeakReference == _objc_msgForward) {
            return nil;
        }
        deallocating =
            ! (*allowsWeakReference)(referent, SEL_allowsWeakReference);
    }

    if (deallocating) {
        _objc_fatal("Cannot form weak reference to instance (%p) of "
                    "class %s. It is possible that this object was "
                    "over-released, or is in the process of deallocation.",
                    (void*)referent, object_getClassName((id)referent));
    }

    // now remember it and where it is being stored
    weak_entry_t *entry;
    if ((entry = weak_entry_for_referent(weak_table, referent))) {
        append_referrer(entry, referrer);
    }
    else {
        weak_entry_t new_entry;
        new_entry.referent = referent;
        new_entry.out_of_line = 0;
        new_entry.inline_referrers[0] = referrer;
        for (size_t i = 1; i < WEAK_INLINE_COUNT; i++) {
            new_entry.inline_referrers[i] = nil;
        }

        weak_grow_maybe(weak_table);
        weak_entry_insert(weak_table, &new_entry);
    }

    // Do not set *referrer. objc_storeWeak() requires that the
    // value not change.

    return referent_id;
}

可以看出，runtime 是通过检查引用计数的个数来判断对象是否在 deallocting， 然后通过

    if (deallocating) {
        _objc_fatal("Cannot form weak reference to instance (%p) of "
                    "class %s. It is possible that this object was "
                    "over-released, or is in the process of deallocation.",
                    (void*)referent, object_getClassName((id)referent));
    }

这段代码让程序crash。

再看一下 _objc_fatal 这个函数

void _objc_fatal(const char *fmt, ...)
{
    va_list ap;
    char *buf1;
    char *buf2;

    va_start(ap,fmt);
    vasprintf(&buf1, fmt, ap);
    va_end (ap);

    asprintf(&buf2, "objc[%d]: %s\n", getpid(), buf1);
    _objc_syslog(buf2);
    _objc_crashlog(buf2);

    _objc_trap();
}

可以看到这个函数实际会在控制台输出一段信息，然后调用 _objc_trap() 引起 crash. 而最后一个函数调用刚好也对上我们之前的崩溃堆栈。
