890615 - Form submit with multiple files embedded as

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

I seem to be getting an interprocess invalid file, being returned when i attempt to submit a file in a form.

I/Gecko   (  274): IPDL protocol error: [PNeckoParent] Received an invalid file descriptor!


A basic example is in the mochitest:
content/html/content/test/test_bug523771.html

<form action="form_submit_server.sjs" target="target_iframe" id="form"
method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
  <input id=singleFile name=singleFile type=file>
  <input type="button" onclick="formSubmit()" value="form submit">
</form>

Basically the file data never makes it to the http server. 

Since it seems to be throwing an ipdl error, I was thinking that somehow this requires the child process to pass the data in the file up to the parent process to actually post the data, and somewhere along that line there is a problem. 

Possibly an electrolysis issue ?

This of course can only happen if the app is a hosted app.

Bent: This sounds like a problem with IPC Blobs? We surely have tests for this, though seems like those tests aren't running in IPC :(
