1302918 - Switch to using PTexture for sharing textures between OOP video and the compositor.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect)

Description

[Matt Woodrow (:mattwoodrow)]

As discussed in bug 1288618, we don't want to share layers::Image directly with the compositor.

We should instead create a new protocol for sharing PTexture (VideoBridge?) and share the textures that way.

|texture| is used unconditionally above, so can it really be null here?

Is there any way to assert that this happens on a specific thread?

sVideoBridgeChildSingleton holds a ref to this. Is this line supposed to be in Shutdown?

Better to do this mSelfRef = nullptr in DeallocPVideoBridgeParent. Just for consistency with other protocols where it's necessary.

Can you assert this happens on the IPDL thread? Usually these "Actor to C++ Owner" casts are inherently racy, so we want to make sure they're being used correctly.

Should this be MOZ_ASSERT_UNREACHABLE?

Mark 51 as fix-optional. If it's worth uplift to 51, feel free to nominate it.
