Reply to System-wide deadlock in removexattr from revisiond / APFS
What you'll find is that there are two clients— yours and a (presumably unrelated) 3rd party client. The other ES client is basically a 3rd party logger that's not active. Ours does some auth work, but we're fairly certain in this case it's just monitoring to do reporting and follow-up scans. Do you know exactly what kicked off your helper process? Both in terms of the triggering event and the target file? No. At the time, the system had been idle for 2 hours. In this case, we do observe a system update being staged in the background, but not in all other instances. I suspect it was a FILE_NOTIFY_CLOSE. It would be insightful to know if APFS triggers that or related ES events when decompressing a file. A big part of the problem here is that the data we're looking at is being collected LONG (2+ days) after the problem itself actually occurred, which means we don't REALLY know EXACTLY what happened. I will submit unified logs that cover the period in question, but your point remains. That ES check can

Reply to CoreData + CloudKit -- Many-to-Many Relationship not Syncing
This sounds like a general synchronization issue, and so you can probably start with the technotes mentioned in this post to hopefully figure out the cause of the issue. NSPersistentCloudKitContainer supports many-to-many relationships. Before seeing an evidence that proves it doesn't work (by going through the debugging process the technotes describe), I probably won't change the Core Data model.

Thank you for sharing your post. I understand that it can be frustrating, especially when the job is impacting your daily routine. I am eager to assist you in any way I can. I have a potential idea, but I would like to request a bug filing for further investigation. Typically, authentication tokens expire after a few hours. In a stable build, Xcode silently uses a “refresh token” to obtain a new session in the background. Consequently, the system may be terminating your session when the initial token expires. This is an issue that requires immediate attention. However, I am only speculating about the cause. Given that this issue is occurring across two separate computers and began specifically in beta 3, it is highly probable that the problem lies within the beta itself rather than a misconfiguration on your end. Instead of simply signing out and signing back in, I recommend completely deleting the integration from Xcode. Navigate to Xcode > Settings > Accounts (or the specific Claude Agent set

Reply to Matter OTA on TestNet: HomePod always replies "UpdateNotAvailable" (Device is already CSA Certified)
Thank you for the detailed guidance. After performing a full reset on all devices as you suggested, the OTA process completed successfully through the TestNet backend. Good! There isn't a good way to know for sure, but I suspect the HomePod was hanging on to an expired profile which then confused the rest of the system. I appreciate your help in resolving this! You're very welcome. __ Kevin Elliott DTS Engineer, CoreOS/Hardware

Reply to System-wide deadlock in removexattr from revisiond / APFS
Let me start by saying two slightly contradictory things: It's very likely that there is an APFS bug here, so if you haven't already, please file a bug on this and post the bug number back here. It's ALSO very likely that your ES client (possibly both ES clients) are required to actually experience this bug, and you should address it as well. Next, I think I want to be clear that some of what I'm saying is a bit of an educated guess. A big part of the problem here is that the data we're looking at is being collected LONG (2+ days) after the problem itself actually occurred, which means we don't REALLY know EXACTLY what happened. That doesn't invalidate what I'm describing above, but I do think it's important to have some awareness of the limitation of the data at hand and that, most importantly, new data could totally change our understanding of the overall state of things. Getting into the details: But here, I don't see such things. When EndpointSecurityEventManager is on the spindump, it's only because they

Made for Kids flag stuck — cannot update my app
Dear Apple team, I am a developer who has been unable to update my app Mon Pain Quotidien for several months due to a stuck Made for Kids flag that I cannot remove. My app is a Bible study platform for all ages — it was never intended for children specifically. The flag was set by mistake. Every submission is rejected with error: Guideline 1.3 - Safety - Kids Category We noticed you selected the Kids Category for your app, but your app does not appear to be designed for kids aged 11 and under. Specifically, we noticed that your app is a educational app, which is not appropriate for use by children. Since apps in the Kids Category should be designed specifically for children, apps submitted to this category must be appropriate for kids aged 11 and under. Next Steps To resolve this issue, please resubmit your app without the Kids category designation.

Reply to Made for Kids flag stuck — cannot update my app
Thank you for your post. The App Store team does not monitor the forums, and I believe you set your app as “Made for Kids” for the first time when you deployed the app. Since your app is already live, the “Made for Kids” flag and the “Kids” category are often locked to prevent developers from changing an app’s target audience without parental consent. This will be a significant privacy issue as you can see. To resolve a locked metadata field like that, you need to contact App Store Connect Support, not App Review. Visit the Apple Developer Contact Us page. The representative can file an internal ticket directly to the App Store Connect engineering team to manually unstick the metadata field on your account if appropriate. Now, depending on your app and the people affected by that change, the engineering team will decide whether to make that change. I’m not in that team now I know their process. Once App Store Connect Support unlocks the field and you successfully uncheck “Made for Kids,” you can subm

macOS 12.6 LightsOutManagement; address already in use
Hello together, I'm currently trying to implement a simple way to use the new LOM commands for our new mac infrastructure. My MDM sollution is a custom instance of MicroMDM. MDM profiles are working fine, but when I send a https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/lom_device_request_command with any command (Reset, PowerON, PowerOFF), then it doesn't reset/restart/start the target Mac. Host X has a device profile and host Y a controller profile. Host/Mac Y = fe80::YYYY:YYYY:YYYY:8608 Host/Mac X = fe80::XX:XXXX:XXXX:cfab Now, if I send a LOM request for Mac Y to reset Mac X, I get the error Address already in use on Mac X (logs via log stream) log stream (private logs) And wireshark on Mac X shows there is traffic, but MacX does not respond to anything, not even tcp syn packages. This error is really weird, because there are no special ports running on that mac and I don't know what Port lightsoutmanagementd tries to listen to. lsof | grep LISTEN | grep -i ipv6 launchd 1 root 7u IPv6

Hi, @Dominik_2 I'm a little late here but I'm having the same issue. Did you ever figure this out? I can't even get a 2019 Mac Pro to properly activate LOM and a 2023 Mac mini which gives me the same Address Already In Use error. Here's all my testing and info. Apple are you there???

Reply to Kernel panic when using fclonefileat from ES
Regarding fclonefileat API, my expectations are actually met in macOS 26.4 now - I do expect that the Kernel is capable of rejecting invalid calls of clonefile API and does fail the operation. It is tricky to predict the future as there might be new regular file types that might not be clonable/will become clonable, so I always delegate the file clonability decision to the Kernel. So, stepping back for a moment, my larger advice here in terms of future proofing would actually be to avoid the direct call to clonefile and instead call copyfile. While kernel panic'ing is a relatively extreme failure, clonefile is a low-level syscall, and I'd fully expect that there can/are/will be edge cases where clonefile fails and copyfile does not. The difference here is a matter of API role - clonefile is only designed to do the specific task of sending a specific request to the VFS system, while copyfile() is designed around the broader job. If you specifically want to fail in any case where a file can't be cloned

Kernel panic when using fclonefileat from ES
Hi, I am developing instant snapshot backup solution for macOS using Endpoint Security. We have stumbled upon a Kernel Panic when using fclonefileat API. We are catching a kernel panic on customer machines when attempting to clone the file during ES sync callback: panic(cpu 0 caller 0xfffffe002c495508): apfs_io_lock_exclusive : Recursive exclusive lock attempt @fs_utils.c:435 I have symbolized the backtrace to know it is related to clone operation with the following backtrace: apfs_io_lock_exclusive apfs_clone_internal apfs_vnop_clonefile I made a minimal repro that boils down to the following operations: apfs_crash_stress - launch thread to do rsrc writes static void *rsrc_write_worker(void *arg) { int id = (int)(long)arg; char buf[8192]; long n = 0; fill_pattern(buf, sizeof(buf), 'W' + id); while (n < ITERATION_LIMIT) { int file_idx = n % NUM_SOURCE_FILES; int fd = open(g_src_rsrc[file_idx], O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0644); if (fd >= 0) { off_t off = ((n * 4096) % RSRC_DATA_SIZE); pwrite(fd, buf, sizeof(buf
