Add new MozChromeEvent/MozContentEvent in shell.js to allow System app to control its own audio channels.
Attached patch bug-1165134.patch (obsolete) — — Splinter Review 
Hi :baku,

Could you help to review the patch for shell.js?

Thanks.
Attachment #8606047 - Flags: review?(amarchesini)
:baku, one more question about `shell.sendChromeEvent` method in shell.js.
We only can do `shell.sendChromeEvent` after the `MozAfterPaint` event is triggered, right?

In my experiment, if I do `shell.sendChromeEvent` too early(before `MozAfterPaint` event is triggered), System app just cannot receive the MozChromeEvent.

Is above correct? Or I misunderstood something?

Thank.

this is a nice C style approach, but can you initialize the variable when you need it?
Otherwise I don't understand why just 'request' and 'name': they are not fully shared between all the cases of the switch.

For some reasons, I just could not push try even I had registered level 1 in Bug 988801. Ricky will help this, and thanks.

We cannot declare two same variables, see it in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/let.

Fabrice, you know more about this. Can you read comment 2?

We should buffer events if you send them from SystemAppProxy.jsm 

Also, don't send mozChromeEvents with a `type`, that leads to performance issue. Rather, create a custom element with your own name, like for instance http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/b2g/components/InterAppCommUIGlue.js#66

Really thanks for Ricky's help.

    
    

    
  
For Comment 2, I created Bug 1167465.

    
    

    
  
Evan, please fix the event naming as I asked in comment 9.

    
    

    
  
Hi Fabrice,

Sorry, didn't see that before.
Sure, let me fix it.

    
    

    
  
Hi Fabrice,

Juse one thing to make sure.

if we do
```
// type => action
shell.sendChromeEvent({
  action: 'system-audiochannel-list',
  audioChannels: audioChannels
});
```
, there is no performance issue and it is good, right?

And currently, many statements([1], [2], [3], and more) about `sendChromeEvent` are just with `type` in shell.js, they also lead to performance issue, right?

Thanks.

And one more thing.
Fabrice, do you know why the naming(type) cause the performance issue?

    
    

    
  
Evan,
No, switching from `type` to `action` is not good, and yes we have chromeEvent uses that I'd like to see disappear. You need to use your own event name, like in http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/b2g/components/InterAppCommUIGlue.js#66

The reason is that if all we send is a `mozChromeEvent` event, we end up with lots of event listeners for this event in the system app, and we need to eventually run a large number of handler that just check if they can process the event's `type`. Unfortunately that can take time... we used to spend 30ms just to reach the right event handler to launch apps for instance!

Hi Fabrice,

Got you.
I just updated the patch for your comments. See it in[1].

Thanks.

Wait for Bug 1174121. Once it is fixed, then we can push try again.

    
    

    
  
The try for Comment 21: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=03cebadab1d8

Looks like there are some problems there, all Gij tasks were not passed. Start to debug.

    
    

    
  
A new try push for all gecko and gaia tests: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=60c6673ead1f

    
    

    
  
Try for changing gaia code in bug-1166172 branch[1]: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=a45c42422882

If the Gij tasks are passed, I think we just need to apply the gaia change[1].

[1]: https://github.com/evanxd/gaia/tree/bug-1166172

    
    

    
  
If we change the timing of sending the content event[1][2], the try server tasks are good. So we can say Bug 1166172 just block this bug currently. Let's fix that.

bug-1165134.patch - Updated the patch for review comments

This patch is a duplicate of the r+ patch[1] with fixing some nits[2]. And the try push for it is also good[3]. Let's do `checkin-needed` and land the code.
