Installing Crash Handlers in Cobalt

Partners can install Crashpad's crash handlers to create crash reports in the cache directory. This is done by:

1. Adding the following files to the starboard_platform target's sources:

'<(DEPTH)/starboard/shared/starboard/crash_handler.cc',
'<(DEPTH)/starboard/shared/starboard/crash_handler.h',

2. Handling kCobaltExtensionCrashHandlerName in the implementation of SbSystemGetExtension:

#include "starboard/system.h"

#include "cobalt/extension/crash_handler.h"
#include "starboard/shared/starboard/crash_handler.h"

...

const void* SbSystemGetExtension(const char* name) {

  ...

  if (SbStringCompareAll(name, kCobaltExtensionCrashHandlerName) == 0) {
    return starboard::common::GetCrashHandlerApi();
  }
  return NULL;
}

3. Calling the third_party::crashpad::wrapper::InstallCrashpadHandler() hook directly after installing system crash handlers. On linux, for example, this could look like:

#include "third_party/crashpad/wrapper/wrapper.h"

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
  ...
  starboard::shared::signal::InstallCrashSignalHandlers();
  starboard::shared::signal::InstallSuspendSignalHandlers();

  third_party::crashpad::wrapper::InstallCrashpadHandler();

  int result = application.Run(argc, argv);
  ...
}
