This is the repository for building rust-minidump minidump-stackwalk for Socorro.

1. make build builds the Docker container for building
2. make shell gets you into a shell in the Docker container
3. bin/build_stackwalker.sh builds stackwalker and puts a release in releases/

1. bin/build_stackwalker.sh builds stackwalker and puts a release in releases/

Once you've built stackwalker, you can use it. It'll be in build/bin/minidump-stackwalk.

If you have crashstats-tools installed and a CRASHSTATS_API_TOKEN, then you can test your stackwalk binary with bin/run_mdsw.sh CRASHID.

Submit bugs for the socorro-stackwalker build and test scripts in bugzilla.

Submit bugs for the stackwalker in rust-minidump repo.

All changes must be approved by a code owner.

Patches are manually verified and tested. At some point, we will change this.

This requires a CRASHSTATS_API_TOKEN with the "View Raw Dumps" and "View Personal Identifiable Information" permissions.

Create a Python virtual environment and install the requirements from requirements-dev.txt.

To regression test changes:

1. Build the stackwalker with the main branch.

2. Build a file consisting of crash ids from Crash Stats:

   $ supersearch --crash_report_keys=upload_file_minidump --num=20 > crashids.txt
   

3. Run regression tests on it:

   $ ./bin/generate_regression_data.py crashids.txt
   

   This takes 30-40 minutes to run.

4. Make the changes to the stackwalker you're making.

5. Run regression tests on it again. Again, it takes 30-40 minutes to run.

6. Compare timings and sizes.

   $ ./bin/regression_stats.py regr/<FIRSTDIR> regr/<SECONDDIR>
   

1. Tag main tip:

   $ git tag -s vYYYYMMDD.N
   

   For example:

   $ git tag -s v20220803.0
   

   In tag comment include link to rust-minidump sha or tag.

   For example:

   v20220830.0
   
   This is the initial packaging for rust-minidump for Socorro. It's
   f9933c36 which corresponds with the v0.14.0 release.
   
   https://github.com/rust-minidump/rust-minidump/releases/tag/0.14.0
   

2. Build release:

   $ make clean
   $ make build
   $ make shell
   (in container)$ ./bin/build_stackwalker.sh
   

   The .tar.gz file is now in releases/ directory.

3. Push tag to github:

   $ git push --tags REMOTE main
   

4. Make a release on github and upload the release .tar.gz file.
