I built a rom for flame device, the rom does not have "ro.display.colorfill" property. Then HwComposer is disabled.
Confrimed that the patch works on flame device.

According to http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/7dcb8e0d9668/widget/gonk/HwcComposer2D.cpp#l103 , ro.display.colorfill is only used on ICS. On JB/KK, we query the hwc module to determine colorfill support.

Mwu, I created the patch because it is still used in the following. Can I have the comment about the following?

The following is the correct line.
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/b2g/chrome/content/settings.js#565
Ah ok. That behavior shouldn't be relied on with JB and up. On JB and up, I think we should turn compositing on by default in the prefs since we have colorfill and rb swap support detection.

Thanks. That seems reasonable.
Summary: [flame] MozBuild does not set "ro.display.colorfill" → [flame] MozBuild ROM does not use HWComposer
I confirmed the patch works correctly on master flame and master nexus-5.

patch - Do not use "ro.display.colorfill" since JB

     if (typeof(req.result['layers.composer2d.enabled']) === 'undefined') {
-      var enabled = false;
+      var enabled = true;

There is problem here. When MOZ_WIDGET_GONK is not defined, then line # 569 will always set "layers.composer2d.enabled" to True:
navigator.mozSettings.createLock().set({'layers.composer2d.enabled': enabled });

I am not sure on which platforms, MOZ_WIDGET_GONK switch is not defined.

MOZ_WIDGET_GONK is defined only on b2g device that used android base platform. b2g does not have this definition. But HWComposer is only defined only on GONK. Therefore it should not becomes a problem.
Anyway it seems safer to update the patch.
During debugging, I recognized that we can not use ANDROID_VERSION in js code.
Apply comment and remove ANDROID_VERSION.

Set "1.4?" flag. Without this fix, MozBuild rom does not use HwComposer on b2g v1.4 flame.
blocking-b2g: --- → 1.4?
Making it 1.4+ based on comment # 18
blocking-b2g: 1.4? → 1.4+
