The ProductAddonChecker uses nsIIncrementalDownload, which can't handle downloading from web servers that don't serve Content-Length headers.

The GMPInstallManager uses the ProductAddonChecker to download. The Widevine Content Decryption Module is downloaded via the GMPInstallManager, and Google's update servers don't serve Content-Length headers.

So we need to make ProductAddonChecker able to download files from servers which aren't serving Content-Lenght headers.

The easiest way to do that is to change ProductAddonChecker to use XHR to download.

Note: This bug is blocking deployment of Widevine EME, which we're planning to uplift to Firefox 47.
Some addons (namely the Google Widevine EME Content Decryption Module) are
served from web servers that don't send Content-Length headers, and
nsIIncrementalDownload can't handle such downloads.

Is there a particular reason why you don't reject with a |Components.Exception| here anymore?

Good catch!

Thanks for the quick review.
Gah! Test failures caused by test_GMPInstallManager.js overriding XHR requests, and the downloader now uses XHR to download GMPs, so the download is failing.
This ensures that test_GMPInstallManager can change the XHR response for the
update.xml requests without affecting the XHR requests to download the test
GMP.

Also add more error handlers on the addon download XHR.

MozReview-Commit-ID: 5IWRUm3dHcW
We can fix the test failures by doing the same trick used in the GMPProvider test to create a mock GMPService; we can add a helper function used by the code to download the XML document with the list of addons to creates its XmlHTTPRequest, and then in the test we can change that help helper function to give the behaviour we need.

Change ProductAddonChecker to download with XHR instead of nsIIncrementalDownload

Dave: Can you look at this and the next patch in the series? We need this fix to make the Widevine GMP downloader work, but I'm unsure as to whether we need the cache control headers and the BadCertHandler (as used in the other XHR in ProductAddonChecker.jsm).

We want to land this ASAP, so that Amazon can start testing Widevine support.

Mossop: Can you check this? Adds more error checking to new XHR in ProductAddonChecker.jsm, and makes GMP install manager tests pass.

I see that this is used from the AddonManager, which has a lot more potential edge cases than just the GMP downloads.
Mossop, i think it's better if you take a look in this case.

GMP downloads are between 3 and 5 MB. I don't know how big other addons are.

Note, the existing code using nsIIncrementalDownloader had a chunk timeout of 0, so we'd effectively be downloading as fast as possible with the old code too.

I'm actually surprised this works. Where is XMLHttpRequest coming from? Traditionally speaking, some import-fu is usually required to make it available in a JSM - example:

https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/21bf1af375c1fa8565ae3bb2e89bd1a0809363d4/browser/modules/DirectoryLinksProvider.jsm#14

I concur with spohl - rejecting with an Error or Components.Exception is certainly better than rejecting with a string.

Are we certain a 10s download is realistic for all connection qualities? Where is this magic number coming from?

Third argument about being async, is optional and defaults to true, and can be dropped safely.

Third argument "capturing", defaults to false on addEventListener, and is optional, so is unnecessary.

Note that this is fixed in Patch 2.
I believe all of the issues mentioned have been addressed in this patch except one: I still do not know why the 10 second timeout. Since this is urgent, however, I am uploading the patch anyways.

It is still running through try (see above).

You can remove this event listener now, since timing out isn't possible anymore.
