df40fff0dea06fde06c3cc4967047177524f0b09 [macos] Add sample to PstackWatcher
As of now, PstackWatcher is not working on macOS. None of the utilized
tools (gdb, pstack, gstack) work on macOS. ‘sample’ is an OSX specific
command-line tool, which can collect call stacks of all threads in a
process. [1] To get the instantaneous call stack of a process, one can
call: ‘sample $PID 0’. This patch adds sample to PstackWatcher. With
sample added, the PstackWatcher tests are enabled and running
successfully on macOS. I tested it on my M1 MacBook Pro.
The origin of this investigation has been the memory_gc-itest, which was
failing on my M1 MacBook Pro, with the following error message:
“Couldn't dump stacks: Service unavailable: Neither gdb, pstack, nor
gstack appear to be installed.”. Using this patch the test still fails,
however now I obtain a proper call stack dump, which is valuable for
future investigations.
