The following code will consistently crash Firefox,

<html>
  <head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      function onLoad() {
        var N = 1000;
        var x = 0;
        for (var i = 0; i < N; i++) {
          for (var j = 0; j < N; j++)
            x += i-j;
          print('waka');
        }
      }
    </script>
  </head>
  <body onload="onLoad()">
    <canvas id="canvas" width="400" height="300"></canvas>
  </body>
</html>

STR: Load the page, press 'ok' when asked to prevent showing further dialogs.

It crashes because nsCanvasRenderingContext2D calls JS_updateMallocCounter with NULL for the context. Backtrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Calling code was added here

http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/50de57368f92
Interesting, I didn't realize that this could be called from something other than JS.

I'm not sure what else we can really do here, other than null check and not mark the allocation in that case.
Anyone can clone DOM nodes from C++, yes.

The null-check is the right thing to do here; if your cloner is not JS you don't want to count the memory as GCable anyway.
Not tracking, but would like to approve a baked nullcheck patch
we should get a socorro signature for this crash, then match up against the top crash list to determine how many users might be hitting this.

This landed before the migration to 6, no need to track this.

Since the time for FF5 is nearly upon us, I propose that we take this baked null-check patch instead of the proposed replacement in bug 658440. How do approvals work in this brave new rapid release world?
They work by you requesting approval on the patch, with justification for why it should be approved and a risk/benefit assessment.  Probably pointing to comment 10 plus the risk/benefit thing is enough.

NULL check the current canvas context

This is a nice, safe patch that prevents a crash. jst indicated in comment 5 that he'd like to approve this.

That was me, not Johnny, but it remains true!

Just making this more visible for any followup crash stats.
