1708995 - Crash in [@ mozilla::webgpu::WebGPUChild::TextureCreateView]

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1630263

(Core :: Graphics: WebGPU, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

There had been 3-6 crashes per Nightly cycle before 90.0a1. For the current one, we already have 20 reports. Some crashes got recorded on 2021-04-10 directly after bug 1622846 had landed but the frequency increases on 2021-04-22 - often several crash reports per day. Did webgpu get advertised in a blog post and people experiment with it more often?

The texture view creation is a red herring. Something happened to the GPU process, and we are just unable to send any messages. Created bug 1709951 for a more general issue here.

Marking S3 because Nightly and not enabled by default.
