Can you please file a bug about this so that we can try to get this
patch landed?  WTC recently indicated to me (in
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=941854#c10) that we
should probably start adding support for having our own NSPR patches,
so I would expect that with a bit of fiddling in the client.py code to
update NSPR, we should be able to take this patch on top of the
upstream NSPR in our tree.


There is one, quite old:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534764, many patches from
many authors, one better then other ;))
Also be aware of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=801209 but
there is absolutely no progress recently on that one.  IMO rather take
small patches to NSPR then rewrite it all at the moment.


I was talking about filing a bug where we would take the patch that you 
attached to the previous email.  I don't think any of those bugs that 
you referenced is the right place to do that.

My patch is probably not something that should be on by default IMO.  It 
will create a new log file with .pid as an extension for every process 
we start, including the parent (main) process.  So it can well fill out 
your disk when you are not careful.  Also, you can easily get lost among 
all those files.  Hmm... mach run command could delete or (preferably) 
trash them, but still.


On the other hand, that patch is really a must for me personally.

What I was thinking about was that we would only create a log.pid file 
for anything that is not the main process.

Re: NSPR logging dropping log messages

2013-12-05 Thread Robert O'Callahan
Bill McCloskey pointed me to bug 924253, and his patch there fixed my
problem.

So basically, don't trust mochitest output until bug 924253 is fixed.

I think we should also be careful that, when we have multiple
processes (which is always, because of e10s-based about:newtab
fetching), that those multiple processes are not clobbering each
other's output, when NSPR_LOG_FILE is used. I am not sure what the
current state of this is.
