Crash Data

The number six and number eight topcrashes in Firefox 3.6b2 are [@ Flash Player-10.6+@0x481904] and [@ Flash Player-10.6+@0x4818fb].

I looked at the correlation information (with version info) for these signatures and they show as follows:

Flash Player-10.6+@0x481904|EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (130 crashes)
  100% (130/130) vs. 36% (382/1054) Flash Player-10.6+ (checksum: 710F1DFB1D2BB9F2CC3ECFE66624A10F0)
  100% (130/130) vs. 93% (977/1054) Flash Player
    100% (130/130) vs.  37% (387/1054) checksum: 4EDBBD7016E8871A461CCABB7F1B16120


Flash Player-10.6+@0x4818fb|EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (121 crashes)
  100% (121/121) vs.  36% (382/1054) Flash Player-10.6+ (checksum: 710F1DFB1D2BB9F2CC3ECFE66624A10F0)
  100% (121/121) vs.  93% (977/1054) Flash Player
    100% (121/121) vs.  37% (387/1054) checksum: 4EDBBD7016E8871A461CCABB7F1B16120


It's not clear to me what Flash Player-10.6+ is, but a Flash Player module with a checksum of 4EDBBD7016E8871A461CCABB7F1B16120 is the 10.1 beta. That'd suggest that Flash Player 10.1 beta is really crashy on Mac, especially 10.6.

Note that this shows up pretty high for being a Mac-only crash. In 3.5.5 stats, Flash on Mac also shows fairly high, but in that case Mac crash reports are unthrottled and Windows aren't. In this case, neither Windows or Mac crash reports are throttled.

We probably need to run through some of our URLs, but unfortunately can only do so on 10.6 and with the Flash 10.1 beta.

I don't think this blocks 1.9.2, though I'm really tempted to nominate it so that we can investigate if there are changes we made to the plug-in module that might cause this.
I doubt you'll get much information out of the URLs. Flash Player 10.1 beta on Mac OS X 10.6.2 Snow Leopard crashes 3.6b4 crashes Firefox for me at completely random intervals. About 2-3 times a day, even when idling in pages with absolutely no Flash elements.

Judging from the comments, GMail seems to trigger it a lot, but it may be unrelated.

not a problem for me, i have 10.6 and the Flash 10.1 beta and can also build Firefox  debug builds etc here :)
I stand corrected, I can crash Flash Player 10.1 beta on 10.6 consistently, using a clean profile on this YouTube video.

Why are most of the other videos fine? I have no idea. Can anyone else confirm? All my other Flash Player related crashes seem to be completely random, even when I only have tabs with no Flash objects open.
However, I just noticed that one has the [@ Flash Player-10.6+@0x48428c ] signature, which is neither of those. So it may be unrelated.

Sorry for the bugspam.

For a while there, Gmail embedded some (nearly invisible, and very non-obvious) Flash, although I'm not sure if they're still doing so.

I noticed that since I upgraded Firefox to 3.5.6 and Flash 10.1 beta, I have been crashing way too often.  My Firefox was updated to 3.5.6 on Dec 5, 2009, and I updated Flash to 10.1 beta on the 6 or 7th.

Before that, my last crash was October 9, 2009, which was for bug 513747 (SQLite library crash).
The second beta of Flash 10.1 is just as crashy as the previous one. signature is apparently [@ FlashPlayer-10.6@0x48f5a4]

I see a pattern:
1. view some flash thingie (e.g. youtube movie)
2. do something else (read other page, etc)
3. click in the UI: location bar or search box
AR: bye bye

I've seen that both with Camino (2.1a1pre) and Minefield builds.

I'm experiencing this too too often with Flash 10.1b2 and the latest RC2 of Firefox 3.6

Some of the BP crashes:

I am using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.3a5pre) Gecko/20100414 Minefield/3.7a5pre ID:20100414030618 with Flash Player 10.1beta.  I have not noticed crashing, but have found the Flash plugin does NOT work for file uploading at Google Docs (https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=writely&passive=true&nui=1&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2F&followup=http%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2F&ltmpl=homepage&rm=false).  File upload and the Flash plugin work fine when I use Firefox 3.6.3.
The 10.1beta Flash plugin was installed to test the Electrolysis OOP (quote from Mozilla Wiki (https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/2010-04-06)):

"Electrolysis

    * [josh] If you have Flash 10.1 or JavaPlugin2 installed on Mac OS X 10.6, trunk builds will run them out-of-process by default. There are some significant known bugs, but we think the exposure will help us resolve issues quickly.
          o please file those bugs in Core::IPC and cc :BenWa
          o you can get Flash 10.1 rc from Adobe Labs"
Whatever caused the original Google Docs Flash problem with Flash 10.1 and Minefield, it is resolved.  For the past two Minefield nightlies, the Google Docs Flash has been working perfectly.
