The following testcase crashes on mozilla-central revision 7b014f0f3b03 (threadsafe build, run with --ion-eager --fuzzing-safe --thread-count=2 --ion-parallel-compile=on --ion-regalloc=backtracking):


evaluate("\
if (typeof oomAfterAllocations == 'function') {\
    oomAfterAllocations(1);\
} \
");
This OOM crash seems to depend on thread scheduling, you might need to run it multiple times (use a loop of 100 to be sure). Most of the time, I get the mentioned crash but sometimes, also random assertions pop up. It would be very helpful to kill this one as it causes lots of signatures.
Ok, the setLoopDepth crash seems to be simple:

>    // Create a new block inheriting from the predecessor.
>    MBasicBlock *split = MBasicBlock::NewSplitEdge(graph, block->info(), *block);
>    split->setLoopDepth(block->loopDepth());

NewSplitEdge returns NULL here due to OOM, and we don't check it. Adding a check and returning false fixes the issue. However, nobody calls JS_ReportOutOfMemory here and we just exit with code 0 (no OOM reported). 

Jandem, can you advise me how to fix this? Should I just add the check to return false without other modifications?

Yes, that's the right fix.

This code may run off-thread so we can't report OOM here. It looks like we ignore OOM during compilation, but we make sure we don't crash or leak in this case, so that's fine I think.

Can't reproduce this locally, on a Ubuntu 13.04 x86 machine. I did look for the signature from this report in Socorro though and I didn't find any crashes for the last 4 weeks.
