This leads to very choppy scrolling and poor user experience. I have 42 items visible in Downloads Panel. Using mouse whell or using scrollbar is perfectly fine and smooth. My CPU is Intel Core i3 4030U 1.9Ghz with 2 Cores and 4 Threads.

Actually this is also affecting scrolling in Bookmarks list and History list in the Library panel. CPU usage spiking up to 40% and GPU usage up to 5-6%. While using scrollbar the CPU usage is below 10% and GPU usage 0%. Note: Scrolling in the Library/Downloads window using gesture is smooth.

Hey dholbert, anything actionable in that profile that got posted, styles-wise?
Flags: needinfo?(dholbert)
(That profile URL being: https://perfht.ml/2x3lPVm ) It looks like we are churning in a deeply-nested ElementRestyler::Restyle -> RestyleChildren -> RestyleContentChildren -> [etc] backtrace, and I *think* that usually means we're restyling some huge subtree, possibly the whole document (so, the full UI in this case). This usually means some style is getting applied/unapplied via e.g. new CSS rules being added, or probably things similar to that. One suspicious thing that stands out to me: I'm seeing us spending a sample (or a few) in WindowDeactivated -> WindowLowered and WindowActivated->WindowRaised, **just before each style flush**! This is precisely the sort of thing that would cause a full-browser restyle. Here's a profile link, zoomed in to part of the slow-restyle period, filtered for "ActivateOrDeactivate" (which catches both of these stacks): https://perfht.ml/2jEVQAA There's one spot in particular where you can see us *first* deactivate, and then activate, between two restyles! See the 2 samples matched in this profile (the first of which is "deactivate", the second of which is "activate"): https://perfht.ml/2jFguRj I suspect that sequence is happening between every refresh driver tick here, but only some of them are being caught by the profiler because the actual activate/deactivate action is very quick. So, I think the question is, why are we triggering a window deactivate/activate on every tick here?
Flags: needinfo?(dholbert)
Good questions, and good finds in there. I hadn't noticed the window activation / deactivation! Hey Eddward, would you be able to capture a screen recording of you reproducing the bug?
Flags: needinfo?(Eddwardiq)
(In reply to Daniel Holbert [:dholbert] from comment #11) > So, I think the question is, why are we triggering a window > deactivate/activate on every tick here? Aren't panels implemented as 'windows' in some sense of the word (not in XUL, but at the lower OS levels)? Might that have something to do with it?
I'm unable to reproduce this issue on my Acer reference hardware, BTW. Details: - I'm using yesterday's 64-bit Windows nightly (2017-09-18), on Win10, with 40+ items visible in my downloads panel. - I tested by clicking on the "library" (|||\) icon on the toolbar, and then I clicked "Downloads", and then I scrolled up and down with two-finger scroll on my trackpad. (And I profiled just the two-finger scrolling section.) - Here's my profile (of me being unable to reproduce): https://perfht.ml/2xOKHUb -- this shows very little time spent in styling, and there are 0 hits for ActivateOrDeactivate. (And my experience is that the scrolling seems nice and smooth.) Eddward: I'm wondering if you might have some other system feature enabled, which makes two-finger gestures trigger some additional Windows function...? I'm trying to figure out why your window might be getting lowered/raised while you're scrolling, in a way that I can't reproduce locally. In any case, as Mike says, a screen recording would likely be helpful here. (In reply to :Gijs from comment #13) > Aren't panels implemented as 'windows' in some sense of the word (not in > XUL, but at the lower OS levels)? Might that have something to do with it? (That sounds right. And if so: yeah, that seems likely to have something to do with this...)

Uploading screencast. Well, I don't know about other system features which can interfere with this. Just usual stuff. Laptop is Lenovo M30. Touchpad device is Synaptics ClickPad V1.2, as far as I can see and all its Settings are by default.

Touchpad device is Synaptics > ClickPad V1.2, as far as I can see and all its Settings are by default. I *think* I can repro on a Lenovo X230. https://perfht.ml/2xQcmnF :dholbert, is there something else I can do to debug? This is on a machine I use very occasionally to test behaviour relating to win8 and/or laptops with both touch screens and a 'real' keyboard builtin (as opposed to on-screen ones). I don't get a tray app for the touchpad and because this is win8 there's no "all programs". It doesn't show up when searching in the win8 "modern" UI either. So I expect it's basically default settings... If it's helpful, I could probably stick on a debug build made on my main win10 desktop and use msvc remote debugging to take a closer look, but I don't know what I'd be looking for...

(In reply to :Gijs from comment #17) > (In reply to Eddward from comment #15) > > Well, I don't know about other system features which can interfere with > > this. Just usual stuff. Laptop is Lenovo M30. Does your M30 have a touch-screen? (regardless of whether you're using that feature as part of the repro steps here) If so, maybe that's the relevant requirement, since Gijs's reproducing-friendly machine has a touchscreen as well... (In reply to :Gijs from comment #17) > :dholbert, is there something else I can do to debug? At this point I think we need to figure out: (1) why are we repeatedly de/re-activating our window while you scroll? (2) why does this only happen for this sort of panel, but not for other parts of the UI? We already have a backtrace of the frequent nsFocusManager::ActivateOrDeactivate calls, from the profiles here (e.g. https://perfht.ml/2xfvxqy from Gijs' profile), so we have *that part* of the "why". But I'm not sure that gives us enough info about where the signal is coming from. I'm hoping someone with windows widget knowledge -- maybe jimm -- can help out further here...

No, it's a Lenovo M30-70 without touch-screen.
Looks like this is triggering from nsWindow::DealWithPopups. I can't find line numbers in the profiler, if we have a system that reproduces, might be interesting to get a full stack to see where DealWithPopups triggers the focus change. That looks fishy to me.

In both the Deactivate and Activate stacks, we seem to be in nsWindow::DealWithPopups at "Line 7985", which is the "return true" line here (but really we're probably inside the ::SetForegroundWindow just before it): 7980 case MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE: 7981 // The previous active window should take back focus. 7982 if (::IsWindow(reinterpret_cast<HWND>(aLParam))) { 7983 ::SetForegroundWindow(reinterpret_cast<HWND>(aLParam)); 7984 } 7985 return true; https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5f3f19824efa/widget/windows/nsWindow.cpp#7985 So we're handling MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE, which is documented like so: 28 // If a popup window is being activated, we try to reactivate the previous 29 // window with this message. 30 #define MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE (WM_APP+0x0314) https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5f3f19824efa/widget/windows/WinMessages.h#28-30 So it seems we think a popup window is "being activated", I guess? It looks like this MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE is only sent in one place, here: ::PostMessageW(aWnd, MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE, aWParam, aLParam); https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5f3f19824efa/widget/windows/nsWindow.cpp#7935 jimm, does this make any sense to you? (Maybe the next step is to try and get a backtrace of that "PostMessageW(aWnd, MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE" call now)?

Masayuki, do you have cycles for this? Appears to be a bad interaction with a trackpad and our popup code in widget.
Flags: needinfo?(jmathies) → needinfo?(masayuki)
(Although, I don't understand "cycles" means in the previous comment.) The hack was added for old ASUS Zenbook's touchpad scroll. The touchpad was OEM of Synaptics but ASUS created custom utility. The utility made users allow to scroll window under cursor instead of focused window (the word "window" here is the term of Windows developers, a.k.a, "widget" or "control"). However, standard behavior of ~Window 8.1 (and Win10 without "Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them" in Settings of Mouse) is, wheel messages are always sent to focused window. So, the utility always tries to set focus to *any* window under mouse cursor. However, like popup style window of Gecko, applications don't assume that popup style window won't take focus. Therefore, the hack tried to take back focus to the owner window for handling following keyboard events, etc, normally. So, I guess that the touchpad utility for Thinkpad started to do such ugly hack and that causes ugly focus movement.

I wonder, why the popup panel needs to reflow something when it becomes active? I guess that it's autohide panel and it doesn't assume that activated event won't come during visible.
I also failed to reproduce this, this time on a Lenovo W540 ThinkPad (without touchscreen) which uses the Synaptics Pointing Device driver 19.0.17.115.
Could you please try safemode and see if it helps?

I would say it helped a bit, but still far from fluent "60fps" scrolling. CPU usage is still around 25% for the Nightly only.

Hi Petruta -- this bug is actually about a different "Library" pane. Could you test again with the one shown in the reporter's screencast, from comment 36? (This bug is about submenus within the "||\" icon from the browser toolbar.) (The issue you mentioned about the other library sounds like a possibly-serious bug, too, though -- could you file a bug for that, to be sure that's tracked?)
Flags: needinfo?(petruta.rasa)
Thanks for posting reporter's screencast. I see no obvious CPU increase when scrolling through Library panel (one time it reaches 10% but decreases fast) and the scrolling is not choppy. One buggy thing I notice is that scrolling up/down when the list already reached top/bottom will move the entire panel downwards/upwards.

I'm adding another screencast. This time with the Task Manager on the backgroud. It's not 100% accurate since screen recording consumes some power, but you'll get an idea. And by the way, the bug itself applies also to Library submenu in the main Hamburger menu. Also in "More" submenu / Text encoding. The effect is the same.

Could you somebody check if it emulates this bug? If it does, I'll land it with a pref to enable this from another bug.
Yes, it still lags when scrolling. I thought it would have gotten traction and I would have just sat there waiting for a solution. Scrolling on the Add-Ons Manager also raises CPU a bit, but it's smooth. (Only to compare to the situation with the History list.) Going through the Library window, the CPU usage also goes up while scrolling but it is not bad nor choppy/laggy, like on the list. I could record to my phone and upload the video?
I'm afraid your link is not working.

(In reply to megarig_2000 from comment #41) > Yes, it still lags when scrolling. My point is, I tried to create a test build which can test this bug even with any pointing device. So, my question is, the builds in comment 40 can reproduce this bug even with usual mice, without specific pointing device of some notebooks. I feel the scroll slow, but I'm still not sure if that is *exactly* same symptom which is reported as this bug.
Yes. Tested on the same computer and X32 variant of Firefox. Of course, unbearable on touch pad. Using a physical mouse, slight lag going up or down but it is better. Doing a madman thrash going up and down fast does show full stops from it moving. Firefox 57, slightly laggy going up or down, delays in question. If going up and down like a madman, it is worse, a while for it to react. Using physical mouse, it is smooth going up, down, or madman-scrolling of up and down. Windows 10 X64 Home. A6-6310 (1.8Ghz Quad-Core (Single Core Turbo 2.4Ghz)) 4GB RAM and HDD.
Thank you. I'll land the change to Nightly for making anybody can test/emulate the odd behavior of some touchpad utils.
Because of the fix of bug 1410988, anybody can test/debug the symptom with setting "mousewheel.debug.make_window_under_cursor_foreground" to true.

It was worse with touch scrolling, than with off. Mouse can show stutter, non-smooth, scrolling. How will this fix it? I do use Nightly, so I will test on any updates.

It makes any developers debuggable what occurs when mouse wheel causes setting focus to popup window, even with any mice.

With the pref flip from bug 1410988 it should be possible to reproduce this.
Flags: needinfo?(enndeakin)
With the preference enabled from bug 1410988, it hits that code in WinMouseScrollHandler.cpp that was added. That code will try to activate the widget (call ::SetForegroundWindow) that is at the mouse cursor position which will be the panel widget. That isn't really allowed so Windows will then redirect it to the main window. But spurious activate messages will be sent to the panel and main widgets. I'm assuming that code should actually be checking for popups and not trying to activate them. The window will restyle during activation and deactivation to update things that have -moz-window-inactive.

I have tried this try build and it looks much much better. I would say that the bug is fixed by this.
(In reply to Eddward from comment #55) > I have tried this try build and it looks much much better. I would say that > the bug is fixed by this. Thank you for your test. In my environment (with the debug pref), CPU usage is 3 points improved (9% -> 6%). Most of the cost is each call of SetForegroundWindow() in MOZ_WM_REACTIVATE message handler since TSF needs to initialize something for reactivated window. Unfortunately, I have no idea to save this cost. If mouse driver activates popup, even if we want to cancel it, only visual change (e.g., color of non-client area like title-bar) can be prevented. In other words, we cannot prevent native focus change of Windows. Therefore, we need to call SetForegroundWindow() to make owner window of popup keep active. If we don't do this, we'll see odd behavior if you do: 1. Turn wheel on bookmark panel. 2. Turn wheel on another Firefox window. Then, the owner window of bookmark panel keeps (looks like) active and bookmark panel is not rolled up. Additionally, I worry about confusion of some 3rd party tools like a11y tools. So, somebody should contact the vendor to stop such illegal behavior.

Should we let this ride the trains?
Flags: needinfo?(masayuki)
I think that this should ride the train because: - the patch stops running some code to prevent dispatching unexpected (in)activated event. - so, it may cause regressions if we unexpectedly stopped running necessary part too. - root cause of this bug is odd behavior of specific pointing device drivers. - the "odd" means that they do what they shouldn't do as a Windows application. - it is not so usual job to scroll on popups, perhaps, most cases is, scrolling dropdown list. - however, even in such case, this just consumes CPU resource, not causes any inconvenient behavior.
