Steps to reproduce:

> configure Firefox to launch with the NVIDIA GPU using the NVIDIA Control Panel
> launch Firefox 38a2



Actual results:

NVIDIA driver and Firefox both crash (resulting in a system deadlock if Firefox doesn't crash fast enough, sometimes...)


Expected results:

The NVIDIA driver not crashing and Firefox not inducing such a crash.
Additional notes - this does not occur on Firefox 36.0.1 (I'll try doing some degree of bisecting using available builds because I do not have a Firefox build env on this system, to put it mildly), and is distinct from #1125466 in that it still occurs with a renamed Firefox.exe.

NVIDIA driver 341.01, laptop is a Thinkpad W550s, Intel HD 5500 and Quadro K620m GPUs.
e10s-testing set to false does not prevent these crashes, either.
We need more info:

That looks like an umbrella bug for "we crash if the Windows driver resets", while this is a specific behavior change inducing a Windows driver crash. (Not yet known what the behavior change _is_, but ...)
If you could bisect this using mozregression that would be valuable.

It's now going to inbound builds because it's gone as far as it can on nightlies, apparently.

Could you try updating to the latest Nvidia Quadro 347.88 WHQL driver? To rule out driver related bugs.
Not ATM; none of the non-OEM versions of the NVIDIA driver support the chip in this laptop. (I tried beta and release versions from the 341.xx and 347.xx lines; none of them do, and the Quadro K620M isn't even listed on their downloads options, so...)

He's got the Quadro K620M not K620, which does appear to be supported by 347.88. In a Lenovo I am guessing? I verified that geforce.com doesn't show K620M as supported, only K610M. Bummer.
Correct, Lenovo ThinkPad W550s.
(In reply to Rich from comment #29)
> Correct, Lenovo ThinkPad W550s.

Ok, Lenovo is sneaky but has the newer drivers (345.20) here: http://support.lenovo.com/ae/en/downloads/ds102045

Give those a shot and retry.
That's for Windows 7, I'm on Windows 8.
(In reply to Rich from comment #31)
> That's for Windows 7, I'm on Windows 8.

Indeed, should have caught that. Sadly, not yet updated for Win 8 but since the Win 7 ones are early march, I would surmise the Win 8 ones are not far behind.
Are all the crashes with D2D 1.1 and the comment 16 suggesting that when it didn't crash it was D2D 1?
Flags: needinfo?(bas)
I don't see where you're getting D2D 1.1 versus 1 from my output?
Yes, but the difference between those two reports is also that the Intel GPU is the GPU in use in #4, and the NVIDIA GPU is in use in #16. So it's more than just the D2D version that changes...
Right - the few reports that I looked at were D2D 1.1, and I understood that the crashes were with Nvidia GPU, so I jumped to conclusion that the crashes were Nvida GPU + D2D 1.1 combination.  Perhaps a wrong conclusion, but either we have crashes with Intel GPU or somehow Nvidia GPU gives us D2D 1.1 and D2D 1 in different cases.

Bas, this also has a lot of DXGI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED errors in the log, but it doesn't seem to be WARP related - red herring or...?

I suspect that's all just a little bit of a red herring. WARP doesn't even seem to be used here. I don't see any way in which WARP could be related at all (D2D 1.1 vs 1.0 definitely doesn't seem to be related either). This is a very hard driver crash right on the first load, I've tried changing the order and timing of things in my experimental builds because that's the only thing that my WARP patch could've changed. But it doesn't seem to be helping. It's extremely strange but sadly a usecase that is so extremely uncommon it probably doesn't need to be prioritized.

If we get our hands on one of these machines we should see if we can figure out what triggers the device reset though.
Flags: needinfo?(bas)
We kind of do have our hands on one of these machines, they just happen to be Rich's hands and he's been extremely helpful so far so we should keep taking advantage :)

I know WARP isn't used, it's more the pattern of repeatedly losing and recreating the device (D2DERR_RECREATE_TARGET shows up a lot, we get deep into double digits or triple digits of these errors before crashing) - is there an explanation similar the Win 7 + WARP problem with keyed mutex that we may be somehow having with Windows 8?  (We also have a "Attempted to borrow a draw target without locking" in there.)

Interesting thing would be to run these tests with the Intel GPU (when we don't crash) and see if we do get any of these messages - they would show up in about:support, but only with Firefox 38 or later.

Anyway, random thoughts, I have the advantage of not knowing the details of how things work and thus not making assumptions as to what should work but maybe doesn't :)
Any of recent version (including the last stable one) reliably crashes when I reinstall or update the NVIDIA drivers. And this is something that started to occur about a year ago or something.
No longer happens with the NVIDIA 350.05 hotfix drivers for me.

I'm marking it RESOLVED WORKSFORME, but please feel free to change it if some other status is more appropriate.

Looks like K620M is still not supported on that driver.
It doesn't list the K620M as supported, but I assure you, it's in the list of devices in the driver installer, and works well for me.

Thanks for reporting this.
Trying to find out if we can detect that the discrete graphics is being used.  Without that, if we were to blocklist this configuration, it would also block the cases where the integrated graphics is being used, which would be undesirable.
Reopening -- Looks like this works for Rich now because he updated his driver, but we still need to address the issue with the driver that failed.
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
Resolution: WORKSFORME → ---
Noting that some Nvidia driver versions disallow Firefox on the discrete card, not letting the user force it.  So, you have to be in a range of drivers that allow it, but before this got fixed with the latest.  It may not be easy to get this range and have us trust it; on a similar system, I saw 327.68 always lock Firefox into integrated graphics, 347.88 allow forcing discrete (as clearly does 341.01 that Rich was using when things were crashing), and I'm not sure if 350.05 disallows the switch, or fixes the crash.

Rich, what does about:support look like with 350.05, in particular, the WebGL Renderer string would either say Intel or Nvidia.
Google Inc. -- ANGLE (NVIDIA Quadro K620M Direct3D11 vs_5_0 ps_5_0)
And in bug 1143806, the user with 350.12 still crashes, so this is not as simple.  But at least it's clear that 350.* does allow discrete graphics.
There doesn't appear to be a run-time app way to ignore the forcing to discrete if set at the system level.

Too late for 38 but we will accept a patch for 39. Thanks

It's bug 1154703.
This one https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/47537469-de67-49b9-8be4-786702150518 crashes after 6 seconds, and we don't think it's TDR related; just an invalid API call caused by mSwapChain->GetBuffer(0, __uuidof(ID3D11Texture2D), (void**)backBuf.StartAssignment());

One "obvious" thing is that we don't check the return value of VerifyBufferSize() inside of UpdateRenderTarget().  I imagine the invalid api call could be coming from mismatch in size?  Should we report the failed VerifyBufferSize() and be noisy about why it fails?

A mismatch between which sizes do you mean?
Flags: needinfo?(bas) → needinfo?(milan)
Widget's bounds and swap chain's buffer.  I don't know if that's "bad" or not and if it could lead to this crash though.

Yes, we should check the return value, and log the error in gfxCriticalError. It'd be even cleaner to have VerifyBufferSize return a boolean and use this in BeginFrame instead of having the latter check for mDefaultRT to decide whether things went sideways.

No, this would simply cause windows to scale the surface to the widget bounds.

Of course 0 size surfaces are illegal though.
This shouldn't break anything, and may give us more information.

Best news ever, that try failure - sorry for not checking for the completion before requesting checkin.

Bas, this assertion means that we are calling UpdateRenderTarget with mSize at (0,0), which could lead to (driver specific) badness - comment 64.  Which comes from widget having client bounds 0?  Is this something we should just handle, or do we still want to crash?

Milan, since this is tracking for 39, is the fix stable enough to request an uplift to Beta/Aurora?

This patch won't hurt either 39 or 40, and we will get additional information if something bad happens instead, but do we actually have any of these crashes on 39 and 40?

The signature is the generic thing we get with TDRs and can have many reasons. But every specific case of it we can fix is a good thing - esp. if we don't end up crashing somewhere else instead.

This should be relatively easy to fix, as it has a simple repro:

This isn't a TDR, it's a separate bug which isn't related to this one although the signature is the same.
Can this bug be resolved now? Also, should we consider this for esr38 as well?

Nope, it cannot, although this patch will improve the situation somewhat, I don't believe it completely fixes it. But perhaps I'm wrong.

My point was more about "the overall volume of this signature doesn't really say if the specific case in this bug is worth tracking as the overall volume of this signature is probably still dominated by TDRs". But I might be wrong even about that.

I think you're right :-). I don't think this patch fixes the problem this bug was reported for, let's put it that way.
I wouldn't bother with 38esr unless we get overwhelming reduction in crashes (which I can't see happening.)

Well, it's still around, I don't know if the bug reporter's problem has gotten better.

This crash is way down on 40 (16th) but it's still high on 39 (5th right now). Not sure there's much concrete to be done right now though.

My problem got worked around, in a sense, by the NVIDIA driver update they released.

I can try reinstalling the older driver and retest on a nightly snapshot if it would be of use.
In regards to Comment 88, are you ok with me untracking for ESR 38? I assume that there has been no status change since then.

I don't know how serious the issue is and if we should keep a close eye on it. But I don't think something concrete will get done on it so I'm also not sure how useful tracking it would be.

FWIW, here are the current stats.

Firefox 39: #4 @ 1.30% (6964 crashes last week)
Firefox 40: #4 @ 1.21% (1734 crashes last week)
Firefox 41: #39 @ 0.33% (31 crashes last week)
Firefox 42: #30 @ 0.26% (22 crashes last week)

Crashes by GPU Vendor:
* 8997 crashes with Intel-based GPUs (78.51%)
* 1312 crashes with nVidia-based GPUs (11.45%)
* 1092 crashes with AMD-based GPUs (9.53%)
Note: Intel numbers might be highest due to hybrid GPU systems. I don't know of a good way to separate these out.

Crashes by GPU device:
* 0x8086 :: 0x0102: 1469 crashes (12.758 %) [2nd Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics]
* 0x8086 :: 0x0046: 1215 crashes (10.552 %) [Core Processor Integrated Graphics]
* 0x8086 :: 0x0116: 1200 crashes (10.422 %) [2nd Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics]

Based on volume I think this should continue to be tracked. I'm not sure what the best way forward is though. We could try to track down dual GPU systems with the top cards but this is probably just a shot in the dark. I'm willing to help any way I can, any advice on what to do next here?

FWIW, I've created some json files that allows grouping gpu's by generation and chipset. That should help us group these things better: https://github.com/jrmuizel/gpu-db

Thanks Jeff. I correlated your db to the top 20 cards (all Intel, accounts for 73% of the crashes).

The top generations of cards:
Gen 6	33.43%
Gen 4	15.19%
Gen 5	13.50%
Gen 7	8.41%
Gen 3	2.86%

The top family of cards:
Sandybridge	33.43% [Gen 6]
GMA4500	        14.02% [Gen 4]
Ironlake	13.50% [Gen 5]
Ivybridge	 5.39% [Gen 7]

I'm not sure if I should post this here or file another bug. Please advise.

I have recently had an increasing occurrence of blackness covering up the browser (mostly content I believe), this escalates until the browser begins becoming unresponsive until it crashes.
Here are two crash reports of such crashes:
bp-cfce7fcf-f66e-470f-9515-dc0dd2150802
bp-fe100153-a38c-47e6-a49b-b1aa42150813

This last time, once the issue had gotten disruptive, I took a memory report and then it escalated further and I took another report. 
I will attach those.

Also, once things had gotten bad, I tried to load a youtube video, it prompted me to load Flash (I have click to play enabled).  I then tried to load an mp4 directly (Big buck bunny http://www.w3schools.com/html/mov_bbb.mp4 ) and received the error "Video cannot be played because the file is corrupt." (which, it's not).

If this fits here or should be filed as a new bug please let me know.

That's a pretty old driver. Seeing as one of the crashing modules was you video driver, could you try updating to https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24970/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-32bit, which is from June 2015, and see if it improves?
NI tag for the driver update.

I attempted to install the linked drivers and was given the message, "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software."
So I went into the device manager and checked for updated drivers for my display adapter "Intel(R) HD Graphics Family" and it said, "The best driver for your device is already installed" and "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date"

Odd. Device ID 0x0116 clearly said it was an HD3000 series. What does it say under Device Manager > Display Adapter & Processors?? Can you use CPU-Z and tell me what model CPU it reports?
Intel(R) HD Graphics Family, Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2430M CPU @ 2.40GHz

It looks like CPU-Z reports: Intel Core i5 2430M

These memory reports show that we're running out of memory (2.00 MB ── vsize-max-contiguous in the second).

Given that, I'm assuming this is an OOM problem, though it's interesting that this causes d3d11 to error instead of just crashing somewhere.
The IGP is HD Graphics 3000 for this CPU. And the latest driver is https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24970/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-32bit
As I said, I attempted to install that and got the error "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software."
http://i.imgur.com/MVpMtCf.png

I just rebooted and tried again and got the same error.

Several weeks ago I reinstalled the OS on this computer and did all the important updates, but I'm uncertain how many of the non-important updates I did.  They can be a headache to sort through and see what unnecessary stuff is getting put on your computer. I'm doing all those updates now and will attempt to install the drivers again after that's finished.

Loic linked the wrong driver, 32bit driver instead of 64bit driver but Intel's driver installer is well known to refuse to install on many notebooks due to its annoying checks.
Ah. Yes. Having the proper installer made quite the difference. :)
I successfully installed the drivers, but there's not much more I can report now other than pasting in the Graphics section of about:support below.  I did not have a way to reliably reproduce this.
Though I'll note that APZ and H264 Decoding are both unavailable (why is that?).

I'm also flummoxed that I can have Windows check for updates and it says I have the most recent drivers - when I obviously didn't.

To this point specifically, as far as I know Windows Update only checks for WHQL drivers (ie. drivers that have been signed by Microsoft). WHQL drivers may sometimes lag behind what is available directly from the OEM. On my Windows systems I tend to only trust Windows Update for updates to Windows itself, relying on the OEM for driver updates (typically through their software or via their website).

I agree with this conclusion. I don't see anything useful coming out of this bug at this point.
Milan - if there looks like there's something we should add to the blocklist, we could file a new bug for it. If not, I agree, let's at least untrack it.
