636868 - Socorro - change processor to use the jsonMDSW

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Socorro :: General, task)

Description

[K Lars Lohn [:lars] [:klohn]]

there is a new minidump_stackwalk that emits json instead of the dreaded pipe dumps.  Switch the processor to use it.

[K Lars Lohn [:lars] [:klohn]]

this would also be a good time to switch all the json naming convention transformations to something unified and table driven.  See http://code.google.com/p/socorro/wiki/CrashDataFormats for the full impact of these transformations.

this change will require some changes to the config files when deployed.  

in the processor.ini, the following keys must be deleted:

exploitability_tool_command_line
exploitability_tool_pathname

in the processor.ini file, the following key must be changed:

old: stackwalk_command_line='$minidump_stackwalk_pathname -m $dumpfilePathname '
new: stackwalk_command_line='$minidump_stackwalk_pathname --pipe $dumpfilePathname '
