Simplify OOM handling.

Most OOM conditions in Chromium are expected to crash, but there were
multiple different code paths for this depending on the platform and the
allocator being used, giving slightly different kinds of crash/output.
Various shim functions had also been kept in the code for the benefit of
the crash server, which uses a list of known OOM-handling function names
to classify stack frames.

This CL simplifies things significantly and retains almost all
functionality:

- base::TerminateBecauseOutOfMemory() is the canonical function to
  trigger an OOM crash. base::internal::OnNoMemoryInternal() has been
  removed from base's public API (though the function still exists).

- g_oom_size has been moved from memory_linux.cc to memory.cc; it's not
  actually read on other platforms but setting it unconditionally
  simplifies the code and the cost is negligible.

- memory_win.cc no longer defines its own versions of
  TerminateBecauseOutOfMemory or OnNoMemory as they weren't actually
  different to the generic versions.

- memory_linux.cc no longer defines its own versions of OnNoMemory or
  OnNoMemorySize. They used to LOG(FATAL) instead of simply crashing as
  the generic versions did; this has been removed as it was only used
  for some OOM failures and not others, even on Linux, and the
  differing results were confusing. (e.g. PartitionAlloc failures did
  not use this codepath)

- All these OOM functions now ultimately reach
  base::internal::OnNoMemoryInternal() and crash there. This is NOINLINE
  and has been recognised by the crash server as an OOM function for a
  considerable time; none of the other NOINLINE function names should be
  needed any more.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure .

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
