CrashKill/2014-02-10

Flash

• We didn't have symbols for Flash 12.0.0.44 (urgent security fix of last week), but after contacting Adobe and their Asian people coming back from holidays, they should be uploaded now.

Release

• bug 934509 was the #1 topcrash early on and is staying at #3, patch is in -central and approved up to -beta, bug 969923 even has a testcase now. This was introduced in 27 by bug 918345 and apparently we missed catching it until release. :(
• bug 856670 and bug 969441 were topcrashes #1/#2 at some points last weeks but haven't happened in the last few days with any significant volume. They probably should be investigated and fixed still, they might flare up again at any point.
• bug 897870 (abort in Pickle::Pickle) is #8 and should also be investigated.
• None of the above really call for a point-release though, probably are good for 28, but riding along a point-release coming otherwise would be nice.

Beta

• Beta 28 looks even worse than 27 in overall rates in the first days, but that seems to be mostly one bugs for which we already have a patch (just need uplift, see below).
• Beta explosiveness report shows some regressions between 27 and 28 on Beta, main ones being bug 965914 (has patch, needs uplift), bug 952321, and bug 963316. There might be a few more we should take a look at.

Trunk

• Bas came up with a patch in bug 805406 (PushClipsToDT) but unfortunately it doesn't look like it helped so far.
• Confirmed (New) an old bug bug 677043 as the signatures involved have spiked with recent builds.
• Filed bug 970366 have linked to a few other very similar crashes that also recently (starting 20140207) spiked in Nightly builds. We'll see if each signature should be broken out separately. At a high level glance, I suspect {{bug|960873} is responsible for all of the related crashes.

Android

• In overall crash rates, it looks like 28 beta is going to be better than 27 beta for Android.
