-Look for new crashers:
-* Go to go/chromecrash.
-* For each platform, look through the releases for which releases to
- investigate. As per bug-triage.txt, this should be the
- most recent canary, the previous canary (if the most recent is less
- than a day old), and any of dev/beta/stable that were released in the
- last couple of days.
-* For each release, in the "Process Type" frame, click on "browser".
-* At the bottom of the "Magic Signature" frame, click "limit 1000".
- Reported crashers are sorted in decreasing order of the number of reports for
- that crash signature.
-* Search the page for "net::".
-* For each found signature:
- * If there is a bug already filed, make sure it is correctly
- describing the current bug (e.g. not closed, or not describing a
- long-past issue), and make sure that if it is a net:: bug, that
- it is labeled as such.
- * Ignore signatures that only occur once, as memory corruption can
- easily cause one-off failures when the sample size is large
- enough.
- * Ignore signatures that only come from a single client ID, as
- individual machine malware and breakage can also easily cause
- one-off failures.
- * Click on the number of reports field to see details of
- crash. Ignore it if it doesn't appear to be a network bug.
- * Otherwise, file a new bug directly from chromecrash. Note that
- this may result in filing bugs for low- and very-low- frequency
- crashes. That's ok; the bug tracker is a better tool to figure
- out whether or not we put resources into those crashes than a snap
- judgement when filing bugs.
-* For each bug you file, include the following information:
- * The backtrace. Note that the backtrace should not be added to the
- bug if Restrict-View-Google isn't set on the bug as it may contain
- PII. Filing the bug from the crash reporter should do this
- automatically, but check.
- * The channel in which the bug is seen (canary/dev/beta/stable),
- its frequency in that channel, and its rank among crashers in the channel.
- * The frequency of this signature in recent releases. This
- information is available by:
- * Clicking on the signature in the "Magic Signature" list
- * Clicking "Edit" on the dremel query at the top of the page
- * Removing the "product.version='X.Y.Z.W' AND" string and clicking
- "Update".
- * Clicking "Limit 1000" in the Product Version list in the
- resulting page (without this, the listing will be restricted to
- the releases in which the signature is most common, which will
- often not include the canary/dev release being investigated).
- * Choose some subset of that list, or all of it, to include in the
- bug. Make sure to indicate if there is a defined point in the
- past before which the signature is not present.
-
-Identifying unlabeled network bugs on the tracker:
-* Look at new uncomfirmed bugs since noon PST on the last triager's rotation:
- https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=2&q=status%3Aunconfirmed&sort=-id&num=1000
-* Press "h" to bring up a preview of the bug text.
-* Use "j" and "k" to advance through bugs.
-* If a bug looks like it might be network/download/safe-browsing related, middle
- click [or command-click on OSX] to open in new tab.
-* If a user provides a crash ID for a crasher for a bug that could be
- net-related, look at the crash stack at go/crash, and see if it looks to be
- network related. Be sure to check if other bug reports have that stack
- trace, and mark as a dupe if so. Even if the bug isn't network related,
- paste the stack trace in the bug, so no one else has to look up the crash
- stack from the ID.
- * If there's no other information than the crash ID, ask for more details and
- add the Needs-Feedback label.
-* If network causes are possible, ask for a net-internals log (If it's not a
- browser crash) and attach the most specific internals-network label that's
- applicable. If there isn't an applicable narrower label, a clear owner for
- the issue, or there are multiple possibilities, attach the internals-network
- label and proceed with further investigation.
-* If non-network causes also seem possible, attach those labels as well.
-
-Investigating Cr-Internals-Network bugs:
-* It's recommended that while on triage duty, you subscribe to the
- Cr-Internals-Network label. To do this, go to
- https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/ and click on "Subscriptions".
- Enter Cr-Internals-Network and click submit.
-* Look through uncomfirmed and untriaged Cr-Internals-Network bugs, prioritizing
- those updated within the last week:
- https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=2&q=Cr%3DInternals-Network+-status%3AAssigned+-status%3AStarted+-status%3AAvailable+&sort=-modified
-* If more information is needed from the reporter, ask for it and
- add the 'Needs-Feedback' label. If the reporter has answered an
- earlier request for information, remove that label.
-* While investigating a new issue, change the status to Untriaged.
-* If a bug is a potential security issue (Allows for code execution from remote
- site, allows crossing security boundaries, unchecked array bounds, etc) mark
- it Type-Bug-Security. If it has privacy implication (History, cookies
- discoverable by an entity that shouldn't be able to do so, incognito state
- being saved in memory or on disk beyond the lifetime of incognito tabs,
- etc), mark it Cr-Privacy.
-* For bugs that already have a more specific network label, go ahead and remove
- the Cr-Internals-Network label and move on.
-* Try to figure out if it's really a network bug. See common non-network labels
- section for description of common labels needed for issues incorrectly
- tagged as Cr-Internals-Network.
-* If it's not, attach appropriate labels and go no further.
-* If it may be a network bug, attach additional possibly relevant labels if any,
- and continue investigating. Once you either determine it's a non-network
- bug, or figure out accurate more specific network labels, your job is done,
- though you should still ask for a net-internals dump if it seems likely to
- be useful.
-* Note that ChromeOS-specific network-related code (Captive portal detection,
- connectivity detection, login, etc) may not all have appropriate more
- specific labels, but are not in areas handled by the network stack team.
- Just make sure those have the OS-Chrome label, and any more specific labels
- if applicable, and then move on.
-* Gather data and investigate.
- * Remember to add the Needs-Feedback label whenever waiting for the user to
- respond with more information, and remove it when not waiting on the user.
- * Try to reproduce locally. If you can, and it's a regression, use
- src/tools/bisect-builds.py to figure out when it regressed.
- * Ask more data from the user as needed (net-internals dumps, repro case,
- crash ID from about:crashes, run tests, etc).
- * If asking for an about:net-internals dump, provide this link:
- https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/for-testers/providing-network-details.
- Can just grab the link from about:net-internals, as needed.
-* Try to figure out what's going on, and which more specific network label is
- most appropriate.
-* If it's a regression, browse through the git history of relevant files to try
- and figure out when it regressed. CC authors / primary reviewers of any
- strongly suspect CLs.
-* If you are having trouble with an issue, particularly for help understanding
- net-internals logs, email the public net-dev@chromium.org list for help
- debugging. If it's a crasher, or for some other reason discussion needs to
- be done in private, use chrome-network-debugging@google.com.
- TODO(mmenke): Write up a net-internals tips and tricks docs.
-* If it appears to be a bug in the unowned core of the network stack (i.e. no
- sublabel applies, or only the Cr-Internals-Network-HTTP sublabel applies,
- and there's no clear owner), try to figure out the exact cause.
-
-Monitor UMA histograms and gasper alerts. For each Gasper alert that
-fires, determine if it's a real alert and file a bug if so.
-* Don't file if the alert is coincident with a major volume change.
- The volume at a particular date can be determined by hovering the
- mouse over the appropriate location on the alert line.
-* Don't file if the alert is on a graph with very low volume (< ~200
- data points); it's probably noise, and we probably don't care even
- if it isn't.
-* Don't file if the graph is really noisy (but eyeball it to decide if
- there is an underlying important shift under the noise).
-* Don't file if the alert is in the "Known Ignorable" list:
- * SimpleCache on Windows
- * DiskCache on Android.
-For each Gasper alert, respond to chrome-network-debugging@ with a
-summary of the action you've taken and why, including issue link if an
-issue was filed.
-
-Investigating crashers:
-* Only investigate crashers that are still occurring, as identified by above
- section. If a search on go/crash indicates a crasher is no longer
- occurring, mark it as WontFix.
-* Particularly for Windows, look for weird dlls associated with the crashes.
- If there are some, it may be caused by malware. You can often figure out if
- a dll is malware by a search, though it's harder to figure out if a dll is
- definitively not malware.
-* See if the same users are repeatedly running into the same issue. This can be
- accomplished by search for (Or clicking on) the client ID associated with a
- crash report, and seeing if there are multiple reports for the same crash.
- If this is the case, it may be also be malware, or an issue with an unusual
- system/chrome/network config.
-* Dig through crash reports to figure out when the crash first appeared, and dig
- through revision history in related files to try and locate a suspect CL.
- TODO(mmenke): Add more detail here.
-* Load crash dumps, try to figure out a cause.
- See http://www.chromium.org/developers/crash-reports for more information
-
-Dealing with old bugs:
-* For all network issues (Even those with owners, or a more specific labels):
- * If the issue has had the Needs-Feedback label for over a month, verify it
- is waiting on feedback from the user. If not, remove the label.
- Otherwise, go ahead and mark the issue WontFix due to lack of response and
- suggest the user file a new bug if the issue is still present.
- Old Needs-Feedback issues: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list?can=2&q=Cr%3AInternals-Network%20Needs=Feedback+modified-before%3Atoday-30&sort=-modified
- * If a bug is over 2 months old, and the underlying problem was never
- reproduced or really understood:
- * If it's over a year old, go ahead and mark the issue as Archived.
- * Otherwise, ask reporters if the issue is still present, and attach the
- Needs-Feedback label.
-* Old unconfirmed or untriaged Cr-Internals-Network issues can be investigated
- just like newer ones. Crashers should generally be given higher priority,
- since we can verify if they still occur, and then newer issues, as they're
- more likely to still be present, and more likely to have a still responsive
- bug reporter.
