Changed

• PR#174 and PR#175 refactored src/linux/thread_info.
• PR#181 refactored src/linux/maps_reader and src/linux/module_reader.
• PR#185 refactored the backend functions to use libc.
• PR#186 removed the nix dependency.
• deb17c2 updated crash-context to 0.8, adding loongarch64, riscv, and s390x support, though none of those targets have an implementation in minidump-writer itself as of yet.

Fixed

• PR#188 fixed the process reader API that was broken by PR#181.

Added

• PR#184 added a libc backend.

Removed

• PR#177 and PR#178 removed dead/legacy code.

Added

• Initial release.

Added

• Initial release.

Added

• PR#113 added support for loongarch64 getcontext.

Changed

• PR#190 moved this crate from https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/crash-handling.

Changed

• PR#169 updated the crate to edition 2024 and an MSRV of 1.85.0.
• PR#172 updated dependencies, resolving several audit failures. The MSRV was changed to 1.88.0 due to the time crate.
• PR#173 replaced the windows-sys dependency introduced in PR#168 with inline bindings.

Fixed

• PR#164 resolved #163 by avoiding reading Linux distro information on Android.

Added

• PR#168 resolved MOZ#1831094 by adding functionality for reading process and module reading for each platform minidump-writer targets.

Changed

• PR#146 changed windows::MinidumpWriter::dump_crash_context to take crash_context by reference.
• PR#155 refactored a large portion of the code.

Fixed

• PR#150 fixed undefined behavior in the Linux crash dump writing.

Added

• PR#143
  • turn many errors that are currently treated as critical (and thus prevent minidump generation) into non-critical "soft" errors
  • collect non-critical errors and serialize them into a new JSON stream in the minidump

Changed

• PR#145 updated dependencies.

Fixed

• PR#129 added checking of additions to ensure invalid memory offsets are gracefully handled.
• PR#135 resolved #134 by attempting to read the executables build id from the mapped file if it could not be retrieved from process memory.
• PR#136 changed to an older type to avoid requiring a semi-recent rust version.

Changed

• PR#118 resolved #72 by adding support for reading process memory via process_vm_readv and /proc/{pid}/mem, in addition to the original PTRACE_PEEKDATA. This gives significant performance benefits as memory can now be read in blocks of arbitrary size instead of word-by-word with ptrace.
• PR#128 and PR#133 updated the lockfile.

Fixed

• PR#127 resolved #27 by allowing programs to pass the needed auxv information, still falling back to reading /proc/{pid}/auxv to fill missing information, and being more permissive by still writing a dump if some or all of the auxv information could not be retrieved successfully rather than completely failing to write the minidump.
• PR#131 resolved #124 by reinjecting non-SIGSTOP signals after ptrace::attach so that the thread would be in the correct state after ptrace::detach.

Fixed

• PR#117 resolved #79 by enabling reading of a module's build id and soname directly from the mapped process rather than relying on file reading, though that is still used as a fallback.

Changed

• PR#126 updated minidump-common -> 0.22.
