Might be appropriate to destroy the domain in case fork reset fails?
ASSERT will only help in debug builds.
No, I would prefer not destroying the domain here. If it ever becomes
necessary the right way would be to introduce a new monitor event to
signal an error and let the listener decide what to do. At the moment
I don't see that being necessary as there are no known scenarios where
we would be able to setup a fork but fail to reset is.
My concern for raising this was what would happen on non-debug
builds if mem_sharing_fork_reset() failed, and hence my request to
crash the domain. I would have used something like:
if ( (reset_state || reset_mem) &&
mem_sharing_fork_reset(d, reset_state, reset_mem) )
{
ASSERT_UNREACHABLE();
domain_crash(d);
break;
}
But if you and other vm_event maintainers are fine with the current
approach and don't think it's a problem that's OK with me.
The current approach is actually not correct. On production build,
ASSERT() will turn to NOP. IOW mem_sharing_fork_reset() *will* not be
called.
So the call needs to move outside of the ASSERT() and use a construct
similar to what you suggested:
if ( .... && mem_sharing_fork_reset(...) )
{
ASSERT_UNREACHABLE();
break;
}
