# Breakpad Crash Reporting for Mozilla
|
||||
|
||||
* January 24, 2007
|
||||
* Links updated February 14, 2007
|
||||
* Mozilla HQ
|
||||
* Mark Mentovai
|
||||
* Brian Ryner
|
||||
|
||||
## What is a crash reporter?
|
||||
|
||||
* Enables developers to analyze crashes that occur in the wild
|
||||
* Produces stack backtraces that help identify how a program failed
|
||||
* Offers higher-level data aggregation (topcrashes, MTBF statistics)
|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
* Talkback is proprietary and unmaintained
|
||||
* Smaller open-source projects have few options
|
||||
* Larger projects need flexibility and scalability
|
||||
|
||||
## Design Options
|
||||
|
||||
* Stackwalking done on client
|
||||
* Apple CrashReporter
|
||||
* GNOME BugBuddy
|
||||
* Client sends memory dump
|
||||
* Talkback
|
||||
* Windows Error Reporting
|
||||
* Breakpad
|
||||
|
||||
## Goals
|
||||
|
||||
* Provide libraries around which systems can be based
|
||||
* Open-source
|
||||
* Cross-platform
|
||||
* Mac OS X x86, PowerPC
|
||||
* Linux x86
|
||||
* Windows x86
|
||||
* No requirement to distribute symbols
|
||||
|
||||
## Client Libraries
|
||||
|
||||
* Exception handler installed at application startup
|
||||
* Spawns a separate thread
|
||||
* Minidump file written at crash time
|
||||
* Format used by Windows debuggers
|
||||
* Separate application invoked to send
|
||||
* HTTP[S](S.md) POST, can include additional parameters
|
||||
|
||||
## Symbols
|
||||
|
||||
* Cross-platform symbol file format
|
||||
* Contents
|
||||
* Function names
|
||||
* Source file names and line numbers
|
||||
* Windows: Frame pointer omission data
|
||||
* Future: parameters and local variables
|
||||
* Symbol conversion methods
|
||||
|
||||
## Processor
|
||||
|
||||
* Examines minidump file and invokes stackwalker
|
||||
* Symbol files requested from a SymbolSupplier
|
||||
* Produces stack trace
|
||||
* Output may be placed where convenient
|
||||
|
||||
## Intergation
|
||||
|
||||
* Breakpad client present in Gran Paradiso Alpha 1 for Windows
|
||||
* Disabled by default
|
||||
* Enable with `MOZ_AIRBAG`
|
||||
* Proof-of-concept collector
|
||||
* http://mavra.perilith.com/~luser/airbag-collector/list.pl
|
||||
* Other platforms coming soon
|
||||
