EditorLog::add_message error about message queue out of memory triggers infinite error spam and crash

[akien-mga]

Godot version

4.2.beta5 and 2b987d1

Issue description

When the editor spams an error message for one reason or another (as seen with the MRP from #84712 in 4.2.beta5 / 2b987d1), eventually the MessageQueue seems to run out of memory and starts spamming this error instead:

ERROR: Failed method: EditorLog::add_message. Message queue out of memory. Message queue out of memory. Try increasing 'memory/limits/message_queue/max_size_mb' in project settings.
   at: push_callablep (./core/object/message_queue.cpp:96)
ERROR: Failed method: EditorLog::add_message. Message queue out of memory. Message queue out of memory. Try increasing 'memory/limits/message_queue/max_size_mb' in project settings.
   at: push_callablep (./core/object/message_queue.cpp:96)

This gets spammed repeatedly until eventually it segfaults:

Thread 40 "godot-git" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Steps to reproduce

• If it was fixed, locally revert the fix for Specific OGG file triggers "Error during vorbis synthesis -135" spam leading to crash #84712, or compile 2b987d1
• Open the MRP
• Double click the OST.ogg file

For the MessageQueue filling up, like dark_sylinc says, there are 2 obvious options:

• Fix the bug (done).
• Don't repeat error messages.

I've tried the second, but that might mean that duplicate error messages on different frames get ignored, unless we de-duplicate on e.g. a per-frame basis. So while it would solve some problems it might create others, where we are missing multiple errors. But I'll maybe create a draft PR to discuss it.

On making the MessageQueue tolerant to filling up, I don't think that's easy, because once something is filling it, it can't process messages and the editor locks up. If you take away the limit, you just run out of memory and crash the OS.

But I'll have a think maybe there's some good alternative. I'm half asleep today so unlikely to come up with ideal solutions. 😁

We have ERR_PRINT_ONCE which can be used for stuff that risks being spammy, it could be generalized... but indeed the problem is that sometimes you do want one message per occurrence of a bug.

lawnjelly
Maybe we could build some AI so it de-duplicated on the same frame prior to sending. I have a feeling the toaster does some de-duplication but by then it's too late as it's gone through the MessageQueue. It would no doubt need a bit of balancing.
