Timeout would be needed here. Or other option is to use timeout and idle dispatch in parser, and if the idle dispatch runnable is called before timeout, the timeout would be cancelled.

Hi :smaug, I'd like to help solve this bug but want to be more clear first: Once we do "idleDispatch with timeout", what it benefits is the background tab but "NOT the foreground tab" because the current implementation is equivalent to giving the lowest priority (even lower than "idle") to the background tab in the next 50 ms. Also, if my above interpretation is correct, is it possible to retard the foreground tab? For example, let's say the thread will become idle at 45ms and there will be a foreground tab task landing at 49ms. If the background tab task cannot be done within 5 ms, the new arrived foreground task will be scheduled a little bit later as compared to the current design. I know this is a very edge case but I just want to point out that this is not impossible. Thanks :)

We don't want to change foreground tab handling in this bug in any way. In general we want foreground tabs to load as fast as possible, so the current mechanism should work ok for them. It is that we don't want loading background tabs to disturb interaction with foreground tab. Also, in many cases using idle request may actually speed up background loading, since if there isn't really anything else happening, currently we run the timeout every 50ms, but we could just handle idle requests all the time. Idle requests are (or will be very soon bug 1311425) timer aware, so they know if there is a timer coming soon, so this will also help with that issue. Currently the 50ms just runs at random times, whether or not there is something more important happening. Currently if the timer runs, handling foreground tab is blocked until the timer callback has been executed, so this shouldn't make it any worse, and usually better. I'd prefer if we kept the changes in this bug minimal. No major changes to ContentSink or anything. Just replace the timer usage with idle dispatch. If we want to improve the handling, like take request's deadline into account, that should be done in a separate bug. In other words, I'd prefer if we used this bug as an example of how to replace simple timer usage with idle dispatch.

Thanks Olli! It' very clear to me right now. So I will have to wait for bug 1311425 if I am understanding correctly and simply replace the timer with that "timeout-aware idle request". Thanks :)
We probably want to process background tab parsing only when SetDeadline give a deadline far enough in the future, say 3ms or so at least, or when SetDeadline hasn't been called at all (meaning the timer has run) (3ms happens to be the default value for content.sink.interactive_parse_time)
Bug 1311425 is done at least from the API point of view so it's probably ok for you to start on this now, Henry :)

Hi Olli, I tried to translate your comment 5 to code and put it in the patch. The patch still includes a tons of annoying trailing white spaces and hasn't been tested yes. Do you mind having it a quick look and give me some early feedback to ensure I am on the right track? Thanks!

If deadline isn't set, mDeadline would return true from IsNull().
Hi Olli, I submitted a new patch which I think already in a good shape. It has two parts (maybe I will split it later): 1) class IdleScheduler, which internally works with NS_IdleDispatchToCurrentThread and NewIdleRunnableMethodWithTimer to schedule and re-schedule the given "scheduler callback" in idle cycles with bounded schedule time. The "budget" (as you said in comment 5) constraint is also taken into account. 2) Replacing nsHtml5TreeOpExecutor.cpp::gFlushTimer with gBackgroundFlushScheduler, where gBackgroundFlushScheduler is the specialized IdleScheduler. Since IdleScheduler is designed to behave pretty similar to a repeating timer, it should be easy to understand and review from the the "use of the new API" perspective. I haven't had a test case for IdleScheduler and I do think it is mandatory. However, what I'd to know the most is how I can make sure I do or do not regress the background/foreground parsing. I don't have a good idea to systematically test it except for comparing the background page loading time with the old ones. According to your comment 3, "I'd prefer if we used this bug as an example of how to replace simple timer usage with idle dispatch." do you think the IdleScheduler (maybe it deserves a better name) is good (in terms of generality and usability) enough to be the example? Thanks!

Rename CollectRunner to IdleTaskRunner and move to xpcom/threads/IdleTaskRunner.h/cpp https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/147200/#review151766 ::: xpcom/threads/IdleScheduler.h:20 (Diff revision 3) > +// (when current thread is in the idle cycle) no later than the given > +// timeout.

No need to use NewIdleRunnableMethodWithTimer then but just NS_IdleDispatchToCurrentThread(runnable, delay) and re-dispatch the same object. ::: xpcom/threads/IdleScheduler.h:48 (Diff revision 3) > + if (mCancelled) { > + NS_WARNING("IdleScheduler has been cancelled."); > + return; > + } > + > + RefPtr<MyIdleSchedulerType> unused; What is this variable? ::: xpcom/threads/IdleScheduler.h:54 (Diff revision 3) > + if (!mDeadline.IsNull()) { > + // Check if we have sufficient time to execute task. > + TimeDuration budget = mDeadline - TimeStamp::Now(); > + if (budget.ToMilliseconds() < (double)MinBudgetMs) { > + NS_WARNING("Budget not enough. Schedule again."); > + nsresult rv = MyIdleSchedulerType::ScheduleInternal(this); So this is problematic. If there is just short idle period, say 2ms, we end up re-scheduling all the time until all that 2ms is used. That is the reason why CollectorRunner has a timer for scheduling.
Rewrote IdleScheduler a few bits in reference to CollectorRunner: 1) Let IdleScheduler extend IdleRunnable and maintain its own timers: one for nsIIdleRunnable::SetTimer and one for "delayed reschedule". 2) Remove template. 3) Rename IdleScheduler::Schedule to IdleScheduler::Create as a factory method 4) Because of (3), we can rename ScheduleInternal() to Schedule() since it has been the only one. 5) Using an additional timer "mDelayedScheduleTimer" for "delayed schedule" when the given idle cycle is too short. 6) Align the semantics of "budget" to what's used in CollectorRunner, where "budget" is the minimum time slot requirement of the given idle cycle. Once the new IdleScheduler is in place, maybe we can replace CollectorRunner with it. The differences and lacks of IdleScheduler are 1) CollectorRunner seems to use the callback return value and mRepeating to decide if we should repeat. IMHO, using the callback return value is simpler and good enough. 2) CollectorRunner supports "disallow idle dispatch". 3) CollectorRunner seems dependent on nsRefreshDriver. Its insight hasn't been clear to me so have no idea how to generalize such a case.
Hi Olli, I polished my IdleScheduler and compared with CollectorRunner as comment 16 and the latest patch is on review board now. I will be writing test cases in the next couple days. What I might need your feedback for now is, do you think if I should just "copy" the implementation CollectorRunner? The more I polish my IdleScheduler, the more I feel it's exactly what IdleScheduler is supposed to be. However, CollectorRunner is also quite new and hasn't been verified very well. So, what would you like me to move forward at this moment? Thanks :)
"CollectorRunner seems to use the callback return value and mRepeating to decide if we should repeat. IMHO, using the callback return value is simpler and good enough." CollectorRunner uses return value to indicate if callback did some work. It has nothing to do with repeat. http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/d840ebd5858a61dbc1622487c1fab74ecf235e03/dom/base/nsJSEnvironment.cpp#232-233 All idle handling depends on refresh driver. CollectorRunner uses nsRefreshDriver::DispatchIdleRunnableAfterTick so that it doesn't need to create extra mScheduleTimer all the time, and RefreshDriver tick is anyhow better time to schedule another idle dispatch. It might make sense to move CollectorRunner to some more generic place, rename it and just use it for this bug too. Better to have just one idle runner, if possible. I may make some tweaks to CollectorRunner, but doesn't matter if the code has moved elsewhere.

I decided to drop my own idle runner and work on CollectorRunner directly. In order to make it easier to review, I created two patches 1) 'Locally' modify and rename CollectorRunner (to IdleTaskRunner) in nsJSEnvironment.cpp so that we can see the diff. 2) Move IdleTaskRunner to xpcom/thread/IdleTaskRunner.h so that this bug can reuse it. Here is the summary of the changes I made to CollectorRunner: 1) Rename CollectorRunner to IdleTaskRunner. 2) Change the callback type from plain c function pointer to std::function() so that we can bind data into it by lambda when needed. 3) Because of (2), we can remove the closure we pass via the constructor. 4) Because of (3), we have to slightly modify the callbacks (i.e. [1]) 5) http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/61054508641ee76f9c49bcf7303ef3cfb6b410d2/dom/base/nsJSEnvironment.cpp#263 ``` // Deadline is null when called from timer. bool deadLineWasNull = mDeadline.IsNull(); bool didRun = false; if (deadLineWasNull || ((TimeStamp::Now() + mBudget) < mDeadline)) { CancelTimer(); didRun = mCallback(mDeadline, mData); } if (mCallback && (mRepeating || !didRun)) { // If we didn't do meaningful work, don't schedule using immediate // idle dispatch, since that could lead to a loop until the idle // period ends. Schedule(didRun); } return NS_OK; ``` I would think we should always call CancelTimer() because the "side flag" |mTimerActive| would block SetTimer() from being called by [2] ------------------------------------------------------------------- So, do you think we should leave the patches in this bug or split them to two different bugs? What I am doing is the former but I am also glad to do the later. Thanks!

(In reply to Henry Chang [:hchang] from comment #23) > Oh my understanding is we can still repeat the runner by returning > 'false' without mRpeating==true. (the difference is it will not > schedule immediately.) sure. mRepeating == true means that the runner behaves as repeating timer. Returning false from callback means nothing was actually done, so a new run is needed. Perhaps that is a bit confusing but the existing GC/CC handling needed it. > 5) > http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/ > 61054508641ee76f9c49bcf7303ef3cfb6b410d2/dom/base/nsJSEnvironment.cpp#263 > > ``` > // Deadline is null when called from timer. > bool deadLineWasNull = mDeadline.IsNull(); > bool didRun = false; > if (deadLineWasNull || ((TimeStamp::Now() + mBudget) < mDeadline)) { > CancelTimer(); > didRun = mCallback(mDeadline, mData); > } > > if (mCallback && (mRepeating || !didRun)) { > // If we didn't do meaningful work, don't schedule using immediate > // idle dispatch, since that could lead to a loop until the idle > // period ends. > Schedule(didRun); > } > > return NS_OK; > ``` > > I would think we should always call CancelTimer() because the "side flag" > |mTimerActive| would block SetTimer() from being called by [2] no. The whole point is that if we didn't run the callback, we don't want to restart the timer. In fact, CancelTimer should probably be called only if didRun is true. > So, do you think we should leave the patches in this bug or split them > to two different bugs?

So I will be taking the former and have already flagged you for review :) I *intentionally* leave local IdleTaskRunner in nsJSEnvironment.cpp in the 2nd patch (it's supposed to use xpcom/thread/IdleTaskRunner.h) just because it would be easier to apply when they are under development. After r+'ed, I will 1) Remove the local IdleTaskRunner in nsJSEnvironment.cpp and 2) Maybe move the implementation to a file. Besides, one change I forgot to mention in comment 23 is I removed the dependency on |sShuttingDown| [1]. The alternative is using a callback |ShouldCancel| to query the external state for "passive" cancellation (from the caller perspective, because the caller doesn't explicitly Cancel() the runner.)

If we still reach line 365, since we don't know how far the refresh tick is, will 8ms be a more suitable value which leads to the greatest probability that we "just" had a refresh tick? Or we need to guarantee we have passed a refresh tick in this case? > Indentation looks weird here, or is it just some MozReview bug. > > > (and I do so hate C++ lambdas.

Line 365 is the case where we are almost in the beginning of a full refresh cycle so 16 ms makes the timer fire right after the next tick. If so, should I revert back to the original design (always 16) because the "RefreshDriver is ticking" case will be handled well on line 342: nsRefreshDriver::DispatchIdleRunnableAfterTick(this, mDelay);

Ideally in case 2 we'd like the timer to be fired right "after" the next tick. Not sure if we have to be such ideal but I just want to make sure I didn't misunderstand something here :)
Note, we use the schedule timer to re-scheduling using _idle_dispatch_, so it doesn't matter too much what the time is, since nothing heavy work will happen when that timer fires. But sure, right after deadline (when deadline was non-null) would be good.

Thanks Olli :) I have decided to reorder my patches as the following strategy: 1) Part 1. Rename, move code around and separate implementation to cpp. This patch is meant to be very trivial: 1) Rename CollectorRunner to IdleTaskRunner. 2) Move IdleTaskRunner New files: IdleTaskTimer.h/cpp. 2) Part 2. Since we know part 1 doesn't change any bit of the runner, we can regard IdleTaskTimer.h/cpp is exactly the same as the CollectorRunner in nsJSEnvironment and review the diff. 3) Test cases for testing basic feature of IdleTaskRunner: repeating/non-repeating/ShouldCancel/... As for the best reschedule delay, I didn't change anything from the last patch: (deadline - now) or 16ms if no deadline Could you please review my latest patches again? Thanks :)

Rename CollectRunner to IdleTaskRunner and move to xpcom/threads/IdleTaskRunner.h/cpp https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/147200/#review154448 Yes this doesn't compile due to the static variable |sShuttingDown| from original place (nsJSEnvironment). > What sShuttingDown is this now referring to? It's referring to nowhere so this patch itself doesn't compile and the next patch would fix this. The reason I didn't fix it in this patch is to keep this patch as simple as possible (only rename and code mvoe)
Hi Olli, I was about to land the patch but realized (thanks to gtest) we have to explicitly call IdleTaskRunner::Cancel() for a repeating runner to completely delete the IdleTaskRunner object and stop repeating. Does it make sense to you? I think that's because IdleTaskRunner may be also refcounted by perhaps the thread object so it requires an explicit cycle reference breakup. I would imagine this issue can be fixed by separating IdleTaskRunner and the runnable but just like to know your though. If you feel the current design and is totally fine, I will add comments to describe this fact and land it as soon as possible. Thanks :)

Yes, explicit Cancel is rather expected for a repeating runner. Why would you separate runner and runnable?

(In reply to Olli Pettay [:smaug] from comment #51) > Yes, explicit Cancel is rather expected for a repeating runner. > Why would you separate runner and runnable? If the runner is NOT a runnable, we may be able to have the chance to remove circular references in the runner dtor. But since it's fine to you, I'll just leave everything as it and land the patches. Thanks :)

Why is that fullscreen test failing? Is it a racy test?
I have totally no idea :( It only happens on Linux platform and I can't reproduce it on my local machine.
xidorn, if you're in SF and also Henry, perhaps you could try to figure out why the fullscreen test fails?

Hi Xidorn, I did a little research on the full screen testing failures (only on Linux opt build) but only concluded that the the failure is due to the failed check (FullscreenElementReadyCheck) [1] which is caused by [2] (IsInActiveTab). To be more detailed, right after requesting to exit fullscreen mode, (via gtk API on Linux [3]), the window will not get active/focused synchronously. I haven't figured out if it's the limitation of gtk or gecko's essential issue. I modified the test cases to ensure the testing window will have been active before we request fullscreen. That totally fixed the intermittent failures. Could you help review the patch? Thanks!

Investigating test_data_uri.html, it appears that [1] a "data:" iframe principal is not nullprincipal when it ought to be. Cannot reproduce it locally even with throttled CPU to simulate the try environment.

Yoshi wrote that test, perhaps he can help.

A quick finding according to the log [1] is nsIPrincipal.isNullPrincipal may be false even if nsIPrincipal.origin is something like 'moz-nullprincipal:{3b13cb12-f07d-4a18-9b2c-9e27998e4e1f}' [1] https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#?job_id=114724500&repo=try&lineNumber=8760

Oops I was totally wrong. NullPrincipal would be created instead if codebaseprincipal so the weird state in comment 102 remains weird...

NullPrincipal would be created instead at http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/01d27fdd3946f7210da91b18fcccca01d7324fe2/caps/BasePrincipal.cpp#369 I thought the one which is created is NullPrincipalURI. So, I still cannot explain comment 102.
Well, the very original error message had told the reason: [task 2017-07-17T10:19:15.400501Z] 10:19:15 ERROR - /tests/dom/base/test/test_data_uri.html logged result after SimpleTest.finish(): iframe should have NullPrincipal It's just because [1] might run before [2] and that's what the error message suggested.
