Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] rust_binder: track caller location in BinderError
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 13:56:37 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930-binder-transaction-log-v2-2-8a15e9b8cae3@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930-binder-transaction-log-v2-0-8a15e9b8cae3@google.com>
Record the caller's location in BinderError using #[track_caller] and a
new ErrorLocation wrapper around &'static Location<'static> across all
BinderError constructors and From implementations. ErrorLocation
implements Display by stripping the directory prefix so locations are
formatted as filename.rs:line (e.g. process.rs:422).
In Context::get_manager_node and Process::buffer_alloc, avoid passing
BinderError::new_dead() or BinderError::from() as function pointers to
Option::ok_or_else() and Result::map_err() so that #[track_caller]
captures the call site in rust_binder correctly.
Include the error location in the FailedTransaction debug print and
prepare for recording it in the binder transaction log. Example output:
rust_binder: 840:4583 transaction async to 7656:0 failed ESRCH, code 1 size 428-16 line thread.rs:711
