[M1] Incorrect calculation of values using multiplication with Mathf.Sqrt() when an unused variable is declared

Mono

-

How to reproduce:
1. Open the user attached "M1 Issue Repo Package.zip" project
2. Open the "SampleScene" Scene
3. Enter Play Mode

Expected result: "nonZeroValue = 8.660254" is logged
Actual result: "nonZeroValue = 0" is logged

Reproducible with: 2020.1.0a4, 2020.3.33f1
Not Reproducible with: 2019.4.38f1, 2020.1.0a3, 2021.3.1f1, 2022.1.0f1, 2022.2.0a11

Note:
- Reproducible on a new project
- Not reproducible on non-Silicon macOS and Windows
- Switching to Debug Mode and entering Play Mode shows the correct values

  1. Resolution Note (2020.3.X):

    After investigation it was determined that this issue was fixed by the mono upgrade starting in version 2021.2 and backporting the required changes to 2020.3 would be non-trivial. The issue only reproduces in the editor and not during a mac standalone player runtime. It is also easy to work-around by performing the Sqrt function on a separate line than the multiplication. While this isn't ideal it will have to suffice to bridge the gap to where this issue is fixed in later versions. Additionally the defining of an unused variable appears to not be required to reproduce the bug.
