Stability
- automatic crash submission may lead to crash reports being sent twice or more: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407631
- [marcia] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1402087 is still being investigated. Random crash addresses on Mac
Nightly
awsy rate: 5.58 (browser 1.07, content 4.51) telemetry (m+c-s) from tuesday: 10.65 (week before: 6.01, this time last cycle: 4.39)
[marcia]
- Rate has risen since Tuesday
- Rate is likely higher due to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407258, which caused over 6K crashes
- Adding a diagnostic assert caused the crash spike in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407930
Beta
awsy rate: 0.81 (browser 0.48, content 0.33) telemetry (m+c-s) from tuesday: 3.20 (week before: 4.23, this time last cycle: 4.12)
[philipp] 57.0b7
- fix for a startup crash we took in b7 didn't work as the signatures are still present:
- async shutdown timeouts in sanitize.js: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404105 - 4.3% of browser crashes
- crash in NewFunctionClone: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384544 - 2% of browser crashes
- content crash in pages_commit: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404672 - 1.3% of content crashes
- Crash in EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; OK: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1405151 - 40% of mac content crashes
- [callek] Could this [missing symbols] be related to https://bugzil.la/1407944 (symbol generation silently failing.. due to rust)
Release
awsy rate: 0.86 (browser 0.63, content 0.23)
[marcia]
- Release rate looks good. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404105 is at the top of the 56.0.1 crash list
- that crash has many user comments (it is noticeable). it has devs looking at it.
[philipp]
- potential fix for a/v-playback crashes on older intel gpus (8% of content crashes on release) landing in 57.0b8. in case it's shown to work there candidate for a dot release?
