Description:
Browser is unresponsive when user scrolls and touches the screen causing two touch inputs.

Note:

Issue only occurs with APZ on.
   
Repro Steps:

2) Connect to a Data or Wifi Network
3) Open the Browser app
4) Touch the screen while scrolling
  
Actual:
The browser becomes unresponsive.
  
Expected: 
The user can interact with the browser, and is responsive.

I'm able to reproduce. Based on a cursory investigation I think what's happening is that the first finger scrolling puts stuff into overscroll, and then we don't enter the block at [1] when the second finger goes down. I suspect this is because the overscroll is actually higher up in the handoff chain, so that condition might need adjusting.

The simple STR I used are: load the browser (I cleared history from device settings and loaded a single page so that i had just one history entry), scroll down into overscroll with one finger, then add a second finger in a pinch motion. This gets the page stuck in overscroll.

The actual bug is caused by the code related to overscrolling (bug 1020045). The wrong layer tree that bug 1062437 fixed just masked the problem.

I'm investigating.

Kats' analysis in comment 3 was accurate, and the suggested fix works.

This gtest was trickier to write than I thought it would be. I had to introduce an ApzctmPan() function to allow us to get into the state we want to test, and in turn it required a different approach to overcoming the touch start tolerance than the one used by ApzcPan().

Unrelated, but should the |new| at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/gfx/layers/apz/src/AsyncPanZoomController.cpp?rev=e4165ab15b4e#2017 have () on it? Since it's a non-POD type with no default constructor it might end up with members not initialized correctly (according to http://stackoverflow.com/a/620402).

Kinda hacky, but ok for now. If we end up reusing that function anywhere else we should clean it up a bit if possible.

I had a look at what the standard says about this:

If the parentheses are ommitted, the object is "default-initialized". For an object of class type, this means the default constructor is called. Here, OverscrollHandoffChain doesn't have a user-declared default constructor, so the compiler generates one which calls the default constructors of all the members - in this case, the vector<nsRefPtr<AsyncPanZoomController>>. This is correct behaviour for us.

If you put in the parentheses, the object is "value-initialized". This is slightly different in that if the class has a user-declared default constructor, that is called; if it doesn't, then rather than calling the compiler-generated default constructor, the object is "zero-initialized", which is basically the same thing except data members of primitive types are initialized to 0 rather than an indeterminate value.

So it doesn't matter for OverscrollHandoffChain, because it doesn't have any data members of primitive types. If it did, I would argue that it should have a user-declared default constructor that explicitly zero-initializes said members, so that we know the members always get a value 0 rather than relying on allocation via 'new' having a particular syntax.

Do you mean sharing code with ApzcPan()? Or allowing the user to pass in the touch identifier to be used? Or do you have some other clean-up in mind?

Cool, thanks for checking! Another dusty corner of C++...

Mostly the code reuse bit if that's doable. For the record I like your scooped-pref approach more than the old "big delta" approach and it would be good to convert ApzcPan to use the pref as well.

Fix

Botond is away until next week so requesting approval for him...

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/regressing bug #]: overscroll
[User impact if declined]: In some cases (such as on the browser start screen) it's possible to get stuck in an overscroll state, which causes all touch events to get ignored until the process is killed
[Describe test coverage new/current, TBPL]: new gtest added to cover this problem
[Risks and why]: low risk of regressions; patch is pretty straightforward. Only affects B2G and metro
[String/UUID change made/needed]: none
