CrashKill/2012-08-20

Agenda

Notes

Stability Newsletter

• Should we try and revive this?
• What about aiming for once a month or once every 3 weeks?
• What should we put in it?
• Great suggestion by bsmedberg - have a newsletter one week after merge and 2 weeks prior to release.

Flash Issue

• Do we have symbols uploaded yet for the latest 11.4 version?
• bsmedberg - checked if the symbols are up. We do have them up and the windows have the correct permissions. The mac version does not have the correct permissions - contacted Sal about that.
• No crash reports that have that version.
• Test day on Friday but didn't have symbols. We say on .265. This is the version being released tomorrow.
• Who can confirm the symbols are working? We can try and get crashes on .265 and verify everything is working appropriately.
• See if 11.4 is better than 11.3.
• There is a bug for the plugin check - tomkat has worked on both. Should be ready to turn on tomorrow.
• Add to notes for Tuesday meeting.

Trunk Regressions

• Trunk is still suffering from a high crash rate. bug 781265 was fixed and then reopened and that is accounting for some of the crashes. 8/15 it was 24% and 8/16 is reached a high of 28% for the week. bug 782981 was a culprit in the spike as well, as people were crashing when just closing a tab.

Desktop

• bsmedberg wrote up Socorro/Hang Processing Proposal for a better way to process hangs. Socorro team says we can have this mid-Q4. bsmedberg is thinking about custom handling of hang reports from nightly/aurora/(beta?) until then to produce useful data, bypassing socorro.
  • volume 250/day nightly, 1000/day aurora, 15k/day beta
  • flat file operation will probably be sufficient (can query flat files using pig)
• Mobeta shipping week of Sept 10th.
  • Want to avoid next week since it's release week.
  • Following week is Socorro work week.

Mobile

• Kairo - #1, #2 and #4 top crash on mobile is fixed on trunk now. Should consider getting uplifted before the next Beta.
• bug 776334

B2G

• What is the status of crash implementation?
• Who is going to be point on B2G crash analysis?
• Do the right people have HW?
• Kairo - client side stuff has mostly landed for main gecko process. Separate apps/tabs process still being worked on.
  • Should get HW to test soon - Kairo has been approved for one.
  • Planning on getting a unique id for each phone for the dogfooding program. We should get one as well so we can start preparing.
  • Another 400 devices for the dogfooding program.
  • Need to make sure Laura or someone in the Socorro team has a phone.
  • Need to test the end to end crash reporting.
  • Kairo - we need official builds with symbols. Kairo tried to ask Dietrich - Sheila will follow-up. No use adding product in Socorro without that.
  • ADIs - need to follow-up how we are going to get that.
• Probably multiple people on point for crash processing.

WebAppRuntime

• Talk to Jason Smith about what is going on here.
• Need to track whether or not we are preffing this off.

Socorro

• Postgres security update - may have a few minutes of down time today.
