1583279 - Scrolling the settings on Outlook.com web app is broken with WebRender enabled.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1581934

(Core :: Graphics: WebRender, defect, P3)

Description

[Lyubomir [:mystiquewolf]]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open outlook.com
2. Click on the cog wheel
3. Click on "View all outlook Settings" -> "Email" -> "Layout" and scroll down

Actual results:

The page content disappears randomly, sometimes is white and if you scroll seems to fix, but other parts then become white. As if it doesn't paint some areas on scroll. See screenshots for examples.

Expected results:

Should paint everything and instantly on scroll, as if when WebRender is disabled.

I was unable to reproduce on Linux/Haswell or on Windows/AMD. Would you be willing to give mozregression a go to see if we can isolate where the change came from?

https://mozilla.github.io/mozregression/documentation/usage.html

e.g. mozregression --good 2018-06-01 --pref gfx.webrender.all:true

The --pref gfx.webrender.all bit will ensure WebRender is forced on for regression window purposes.

I also cannot reproduce it on latest builds, however i have searched for the fix, and this is the result:
