The current CreateChildCrash logic is racy when it comes to creating a crash dump for two reasons: The main thread that calls kill() on a different thread is guaranteed the signal will be *queued* when it returns, but not *delivered*. If the kernel doesn't automatically schedule the receiving thread, but instead lets the main thread run to the exit() call, then the signal never triggers a coredump and the whole process simply exits. The main thread is using kill() to try to deliver a signal to a specific thread, but that function is for sending signals to a process. That means the kernel is free to deliver the signal to any thread in the process and not just the one requested. This manifests itself as the pr_pid in the coredump not being the one expected. Instead, we must use tkill() with the tid (which we already took care of gathering) to deliver to a specific thread. These are a lot easier to see on a UMP system as contention is heavier.

Breakpad is a set of client and server components which implement a crash-reporting system. ----- Getting started in 32-bit mode (from trunk) Configure: CXXFLAGS=-m32 CFLAGS=-m32 CPPFLAGS=-m32 ./configure Build: make Test: make check Install: make install If you need to reconfigure your build be sure to run "make distclean" first. ----- To request change review: 0. Get access to a read-write copy of source. Owners at http://code.google.com/p/google-breakpad/ are able to grant this access. 1. Check out a read-write copy of source using instructions at http://code.google.com/p/google-breakpad/source/checkout 2. Make changes. Build and test your changes. For core code like processor use methods above. For linux/mac/windows, there are test targets in each project file. 3. Download http://codereview.appspot.com/static/upload.py 4. Run upload.py from the 'src' directory: upload.py --server=breakpad.appspot.com You will be prompted for credential and a description. 5. At http://breakpad.appspot.com you'll find your issue listed; click on it, and select Publish+Mail, and enter in the code reviewer and CC google-breakpad-dev@googlegroups.com 6. When applying code review feedback, specify the '-i' option when running upload.py again and pass the issue number so it updates the existing issue, rather than creating a new one. Be sure to rerun upload.py from the same directory as you did for previous uploads to allow for proper diff calculations.
