Details

This came up in an intermittent failure bug today where the stack didn't make clear whether the issue in question is a Gecko issue or an issue with ASAN itself. It was speculated that a memory dump from the failure in question would help, but those are currently unavailable for CI runs. While I know the crash reporter is disabled for these builds, is there an ASAN analog we could hook in to for this purpose?
Priority: -- → P3
It is not easily possible to generate a memory dump from an ASan build because ASan reserves the full virtual address space. This is also the main reason why core dumps are disabled on ASan by default.
I wonder if we could at least do this on Windows...
