Details

I'm not sure where to file this, but I've hit a few crashes on my Nexus 4 recently which resulted in empty minidumps. The crash itself is some GFX assertion failing, which should be a fairly safe mozalloc_abort. However, logcat shows that we're running out of file descriptors, which makes Breakpad unable to write a dump. I filed bug 869917 on making Breakpad handle this situation, but the fact that we're leaking FDs seems pretty bad. https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-ef5de0a3-1b4b-46dd-823f-8bed92130508 The logcat has a bunch of lines like: 05-08 07:33:31.416 31341 31872 E Gecko : ShmemAndroid::Create():open: Too many open files (24) Cwiiis suggested this might be fallout from layers refactoring.
Another crash: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-9d9e4c44-74df-4339-95db-89c652130509 Same stuff about too many open files in the logcat, but crashing in a different place.

This is probably just a straight dupe, thanks.
