问题
I've just had a crash log from a customer's device, and it's crashing here:
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(0, 0), ^{
JSContext *javaScriptContext = [[JSContext alloc] init];
Here's the crash log:

WTFCrash, indeed.
At that point, several of the other threads were busy with Javascript-related memory stuff:

So... what's the problem with creating a JSContext on a global queue? What should I do differently to avoid the problem?
回答1:
Luckily it's open source!
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore-7534.57.3/wtf/OSAllocatorPosix.cpp
void* OSAllocator::reserveAndCommit(size_t bytes, Usage usage, bool writable, bool executable, bool includesGuardPages)
tries to allocate a virtual machine, by allocating some memory
result = mmap(result, bytes, protection, flags, fd, 0);
if (result == MAP_FAILED) {
...
CRASH();
}
the memory allocation fails and the app crashes.
Sooooo my best guess would be that this issue is popping up, due to a low memory situation.
How many of these are you allocating?
回答2:
I experienced a similar issue. Ultimately the extra JavaScriptCore::BlockFree threads were a symptom of the JSContext not getting released. I'd suggest checking to make sure your JSVirtualMachine and JSContext are getting released at the end of execution.
Also as an aside, I am now successfully creating many JSVirtualMachines (1000+ during a run) without any issue, so I don't think that there is a problem with this unless you need a lot of these to run concurrently (like 50+).
Hope that helps!
