* Add API to skip dump if crashing thread doesn't reference a given moduleTobias Sargeant2017-01-181-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This CL makes it possible to skip a dump if the crashing thread doesn't have any pointers to a given module. The concrete use case is WebView where we would like to skip generating microdump output when webview is unreferenced by the stack and thus cannot be responsible for the crash in a way that would be debuggable. The range of interesting addresses is chosen by examining the process mappings to find the one that contains a pointer that is known to be in the right shared object (i.e. an appropriately chosen function pointer) passed from the client. If the extracted stack does not contain a pointer in this range, then we do not generate a microdump. If the stack extraction fails, we still generate a microdump (without a stack).

* Introduce microdump writer class.primiano@chromium.org2014-10-281-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Microdumps are a very lightweight variant of minidumps. They are meant to dump a minimal crash report on the system log (logcat on Android), containing only the state of the crashing thread. This is to deal with cases where the user has opted out from crash uploading but we still want to generate meaningful information on the device to pull a stacktrace for development purposes. Conversely to conventional stack traces (e.g. the one generated by Android's debuggerd or Chromium's base::stacktrace) microdumps do NOT require unwind tables to be present in the target binary. This allows to save precious binary size (~1.5 MB for Chrome on Arm, ~10 MB on arm64).

* Microdumps: refactor out common parts of minidump_writer.ccprimiano@chromium.org2014-10-011-0/+49
This change is a pure refactoring of the common bits of minidump_writer.cc that will be shared soon with the upcoming microdump_writer.cc. In particular, this CL is extracting the following classes: - ThreadInfo: handles the state of the threads in the crashing process. - RawContextCPU: typedef for arch-specific CPU context structure. - UContextReader: Fills out a dump RawContextCPU structure from the ucontext struct provided by the kernel (arch-dependent). - SeccompUnwinder: cleans out the stack frames of the Seccomp sandbox on the supported architectures. - MappingInfo: handles information about mappings BUG=chromium:410294 R=mmandlis@chromium.org Review URL: https://breakpad.appspot.com/4684002 git-svn-id: http://google-breakpad.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1388 4c0a9323-5329-0410-9bdc-e9ce6186880e
