1809216 - (webgl-GLBlitHelperD3D-getD3D11-refcount) `GLBlitHelperD3D::getD3D11()` does not increment ANGLE device refcount

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics: CanvasWebGL, defect)

Description

[Erich Gubler [:ErichDonGubler]]

While working on 1753349, :jrmuizel, :jgilbert, and I discovered that Firefox has incorrectly foregone increasing the reference count for the D3D device retrieved from ANGLE via QueryDeviceAttribEXT in GLBlitHelper::GetD3D11(). The COM pointer returned should have its strong refcount incremented via IUnknown::AddRef, but it currently does not.

The fix for this has landed in autoland, but it's unclear whether we wish to take additional effort to backport this. NI'ing the folks who will likely be making the call there.

Bugs get resolved when they're merged to m-c.

Let's see how things react in Nightly to this change, and if all is well in a few days, then I say patch ESR. It won't be seeing this ANGLE update for a long time.

Go ahead and nominate this for ESR approval whenever.

:ryanvm: This patch isn't /quite/ a slam-dunk, since it hasn't been vetted really hard without the ANGLE rebase patches that also landed right after it. So, I'm not sure. Will consult with :jgilbert and :jrmuizel on this one.

:ryanvm: Since this is already in Fx 110, we'd like to see if there's any fall-out before trying to get it into ESR. If Fx 110 goes for a few weeks without there being an apparent regression, we think it'd be worth considering again.
