1 oom_dump extracts useful information from Google Chrome OOM minidumps. | |
2 | |
3 To build one needs a google-breakpad checkout | |
4 (http://code.google.com/p/google-breakpad/). | |
5 | |
6 First, one needs to build and install breakpad itself. For instructions | |
7 check google-breakpad, but currently it's as easy as: | |
8 | |
9 ./configure | |
10 make | |
11 sudo make install | |
12 | |
13 (the catch: breakpad installs .so into /usr/local/lib, so you might | |
14 need some additional tweaking to make it discoverable, for example, | |
15 put a soft link into /usr/lib directory). | |
16 | |
17 Next step is to build v8. Note: you should build x64 version of v8, | |
18 if you're on 64-bit platform, otherwise you would get a link error when | |
19 building oom_dump. Also, if you are testing against an older version of chrome | |
20 you should build the corresponding version of V8 to make sure that the type-id | |
21 enum have the correct values. | |
22 | |
23 The last step is to build oom_dump itself. The following command should work: | |
24 | |
25 cd <v8 working copy>/tools/oom_dump | |
26 scons BREAKPAD_DIR=<path to google-breakpad working copy> | |
27 | |
28 (Additionally you can control v8 working copy dir, but the default should work.) | |
29 | |
30 If everything goes fine, oom_dump <path to minidump> should print | |
31 some useful information about the OOM crash. | |
32 | |
33 Note: currently only 32-bit Windows minidumps are supported. | |
