There's a varying test that's causing two assertions: 16:41:00 INFO - ^G###!!! ASSERTION: Start parent and end parent give different root!: 'newRoot == IsValidBoundary(mEndParent)', file ../../../../content/base/src/nsRange.cpp, line 667 16:41:00 INFO - ^G###!!! ASSERTION: Wrong root: '!aRoot || aNotInsertedYet || (nsContentUtils::ContentIsDescendantOf(aStartN, aRoot) && nsContentUtils::ContentIsDescendantOf(aEndN, aRoot) && aRoot == IsValidBoundary(aStartN) && aRoot == IsValidBoundary(aEndN))', file ../../../../content/base/src/nsRange.cpp, line 795 I incorrectly annotated something as 0-2 for this this morning, before noticing it was an assertion during GC and therefore fluctuating across many tests. We should figure out which test is causing it (probably around the earliest of the tests that hit it, force that test to have a SpecialPowers.gc() call in it, and then annotate that test for the assertions. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/php/getParsedLog.php?id=20162534&tree=Mozilla-Inbound Rev4 MacOSX Snow Leopard 10.6 mozilla-inbound debug test mochitest-4 on 2013-02-27 16:32:34 PST for push 43a54aaca03c slave: talos-r4-snow-075 layout/base/tests/test_preserve3d_sorting_hit_testing.html

...didn't show anything useful for this bug (but did for 2 others, bug 846099 and the unfiled spatter from toolkit/content/tests/chrome/test_bug451286.xul across the rest of that directory).
Though, it's actually interesting that forcing GC between tests prevents this assertion from happening at all. Not useful in figuring out the source, though.

What should we do about these assertions? I suspect the assertions (or maybe even the code) are invalid in some way under some cycle collection orderings. They're being particularly problematic with unexpected assertions in mochitest causing test failures.
Flags: needinfo?(bugs)
Note that the worst cases of this bug (see comment 18) are currently annotated with SimpleTest.expectAssertions() calls for it, but I'd rather not annotate down to the lowest-frequency ones.
I made the annotations a bit more consistent in: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/rev/326cf12235ec

The chrome assertions are spilling out of bug451540_window.xul
So the problem is roughly this. We have an nsRange whose root is a <textarea>, and whose start and end pointers are in the native anonymous content for that <textarea>. When we tear down the frame tree we end up in HTMLTextAreaElement::UnbindFromFrame, and then nsTextEditorState::UnbindFromFrame. That ends up calling nsContentUtils::DestroyAnonymousContent on the root anonymous node. We set up an AnonymousContentDestroyer to run off a script runner and it calls UnbindFromTree on the root anonymous node. This mStart/EndParent no longer chain up to mRoot. But no ContentRemoved notification was ever fired, so the nsRange has no idea that its messed up. This bug manifests because later the cycle collector runs and it unlinks the NAC before it unlinks the nsRange. The start and end parent end up with null parent pointers and this assertion fires. I believe that if we asserted that mStartParent and mEndParent chain up to mRoot that assertion would fire 100% of the time.
For the time being I would r+ a patch to comment out these assertions.

Try run: https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=b378710e85da If this patch gets review and the try run looks good, feel free to push it to inbound to (hopefully) resolve the oranges. (Also, if it's just orange de-annotation that's needed to clean up the try run, feel free to do that and push to inbound.)
Comment on attachment 720550 [details] [diff] [review] Bail out of nsRange::ParentChainChanged if the nodes aren't in a connected subtree. So this should happen only with NAC, right? Could you add NS_ASSERTION(mEndParent->IsInNativeAnonymousSubtree(), "This special case should happen only with NAC!") inside the if.

(In reply to Olli Pettay [:smaug] from comment #62) > So this should happen only with NAC, right? > Could you add NS_ASSERTION(mEndParent->IsInNativeAnonymousSubtree(), > "This special case should happen only with NAC!") > inside the if. This assertion (I expanded the "NAC" abbreviation, though) hasn't fired yet in our tests (I've been pulling logs from tinderbox), so I think that confirms at least that what we're seeing is native-anonymous content only.
