What's Airbag?
Airbag is a crash reporting tool. This page talks about its implementation for Mozilla.
More informationabout Airbag itself can be found at:
Pages
What's Going On
Just a braindump on what we'll need to replace Talkback with Airbag. There's a tracking bug on this now, bug 360327.
- Client-side exception handler - win32 work done (bug 354980).
- Client-side minidump sender - win32 work done (bug 354980).
- Server-side minidump collector, CGI to accept POSTed minidump data. Current plans are just to call the minidump processor directly from this CGI. My simplistic collector. bug 358302 covers setting up an official server.
- Server-side minidump processor - Mostly implemented by airbag processor, in the minidump_stackwalk example program, we will probably want to modify that a bit to make the output more machine readable, so we can store it in a DB.
- Build-time symbol extractor - Provided by airbag tools - win32 work and tinderbox integration done (bug 359151), and(bug 362970
- Server-side symbol store - For matching up stackdumps with symbols.
- Server-side webapp to show details of crash reports, like talkback-public currently, will need a database backend
Mento's post outlines the Airbag project's proposed scope.
Win32 trunk nightlies currently include the airbag code, but it's disabled at runtime by default. To test it, you will need to set the environment variable MOZ_AIRBAG=1. Crash reports are currently collected at:

Some of the Seneca students are looking into this.
