Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Tooru Fujisawa [:arai]]

Separated from bug 774364.

Bug 774364 adds a testing function, and it causes intermittent orange in oomInFormatStackDump.js on Win32 debug SM(p).
  https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=eb3d7a51f85e

The test files are following:
  https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/js/src/jit-test/tests/gc/oomInFormatStackDump.js
  https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/js/src/jit-test/lib/oomTest.js

putting resetOOMFailure into |try-catch| helps, so the OOM happens there.

putting resetOOMFailure into |with| makes it worse, it causes a bunch of OOMs.

ResetOOMFailure itself does nothing that will throw OOM, so it could be happening before/after calling the c++ function itself.

I think the problem is that the oomTest() function can cause an out-of-memory exception to be thrown anywhere between oomAtAllocation() and resetOOMFailure(), but the latter call is outside the try {} block which is supposed to catch these exceptions.

So the fix is to move it inside the block.  We still probably want to call this in the catch {} block too though because exceptions can happen for other reasons.
