1330334 - Animation for buffer_uniform test not working on some macs

Status: NEW

(Core :: Canvas: WebGL, defect, P3)

Description

[Bogdan Maris [:bogdan_maris], Release Desktop QA]

[Affected versions]:
- Firefox 51 beta 13
- latest Developer Edition 52.0a2
- latest Nightly 53.0a1

[Affected platforms]:
- macOS Sierra 10.12.2
- Mac OS X 10.11.5

[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Start Firefox
2. Visit http://webglsamples.org/WebGL2Samples/#buffer_uniform

[Expected result]:
- Rectangle has a swivel animation and the light has a smooth movement on the rectangle.

[Actual result]:
- Rectangle does not move and the light moves in sequences.

[Regression range]:
- This issue is not a recent regression, it also reproduces on an old Nightly build (2016-07-12), where webgl2 was enabled by default.

[Additional notes]:
- Unable to display the demo in Chrome Canary as well.
- Console output: 
> WARNING: Output of vertex shader 'webgl_1fe7ee70834d1311' not read by fragment shader

- This was reproducible on two macs out or three (iMac 21.5-inch, Late 2013 and MacBook Pro Retina 13-inch, Early 2015) both with Intel graphic cards (Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB and Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB). 
The demo worked just fine on iMac 21.5-inch, Mid 2011 - macOS Sierra 10.12.2 and AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB Graphics card.

What's the device ID for the Radeon Mac?

This is a "pre UVD4" card, and there may be a hardware dependency based on that, though we currently only know of DXVA being different on those.

Mass wontfix for bugs affecting firefox 52.
