oom_dump extracts useful information from Google Chrome OOM minidumps.
To build one needs a google-breakpad checkout
(http://code.google.com/p/google-breakpad/).
First, one needs to build and install breakpad itself. For instructions
check google-breakpad, but currently it's as easy as:
./configure
make
sudo make install
(the catch: breakpad installs .so into /usr/local/lib, so you might
need some additional tweaking to make it discoverable, for example,
put a soft link into /usr/lib directory).
Next step is to build v8. Note: you should build x64 version of v8,
if you're on 64-bit platform, otherwise you would get a link error when
building oom_dump. Also, if you are testing against an older version of chrome
you should build the corresponding version of V8 to make sure that the type-id
enum have the correct values.
The last step is to build oom_dump itself. The following command should work:
cd <v8 working copy>/tools/oom_dump
scons BREAKPAD_DIR=<path to google-breakpad working copy>
(Additionally you can control v8 working copy dir, but the default should work.)
If everything goes fine, oom_dump <path to minidump> should print
some useful information about the OOM crash.
Note: currently only 32-bit Windows minidumps are supported.
