Attached file test case
The attached test case contains a scrollable div, containing an image (just a big maroon rectangle) that is taller than the fixed height of the div, and text on either side of it. Make the browser window big enough that the entire div is visible, then scroll it up and down. When I do this, scrolling down from the top, the part of the image that was below the bottom of the container is not drawn until the text below the image scrolls into view; scrolling up from the bottom, the part of the image that started above the top of the container is not drawn until the text above the image is also visible. If the window loses input focus, any missing part of the image is also redrawn (AFAIK this still causes a total repaint, so it's not surprising). This seems to be peculiar to scrollable containers; it does not happen if it's the entire <body> being scrolled (or perhaps I should say, it does not happen if the scrollbar belongs to the entire content area). It may also be specific to Linux and/or my video drivers; however, disabling layer acceleration does not make the problem go away.
Oh, I should have said, this happens for me with a debug build of http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/dfcb11712ec2 . It does NOT happen with Firefox 10 on the same machine. I have not tried anything in between.
Does not happen for me with 11.0 (latest beta) either, but that's on my Mac.
One last addendum: it must be a bitmap image; it does not happen with <div style="width:300px;height:800px;background:#800"></div> in place of the <img>.

We should only optimize ThebesLayers to ColorLayers or ImageLayers for brand-new layers (ThebesLayers with no currently valid data). Otherwise we risk ColorLayers being a deoptimization if there is valid content in the layer that doesn't happen to be visible but might become visible later, or if the layer contents are only temporarily a solid color and will soon need a buffer again. r=tn

This is a regression in 13, so we'd definitely consider taking a fix on Aurora. That being said, I don't see a need to track for the release as it's not yet clear that this testcase represents a common use case on the internet.

I set the flag on this bug because it had a simple testcase. No doubt Zack reduced it from something he came across. Bug 733337 also regressed from the same patch and Stuart mentioned a page he came across that was likely caused by the same bug on irc which we didnt file because I think it was likely to be fixed by one of these two bugs. So I think this is common.
The test case here was originally meant to be the minimal test case for a completely different bug involving horizontal box sizing. That bug has so far been unreproducible away from the computer where it was first spotted, but I noticed this bug while playing with the test case. So I can't say that I have seen this bug in the wild.
Ah, okay. Well the two other examples I mentioned were 'from the wild' so to speak.

Comment on attachment 607062 [details] [diff] [review] fix I knew it was something like this, but didn't see it when I looked over the code before.

Backed out due to test failures: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/rev/07ac03710f04 The Mac test failure is just a detail of scrollbar rendering. I can make that go away by making the test use overflow:hidden. The Android failures don't make any sense; the image is a different color in test vs reference. I'll disable the test on Android.

Comment on attachment 607062 [details] [diff] [review] fix [Triage Comment] Since we've gotten reports of this bug externally and we now have a low risk fix in hand, we'll track for 13 and approve for Aurora uplift.
