This is the first in a series of bugs to change usages of AutoPushJSContext to AutoEntryScript, or something else when this is not required.
See bug 951991 for details.
Hopefully the really easy one first.
I might need to consult about some of the others, but we have family round, so that will be all for tonight.

We had discussed removing this and just having a request, because nsJSContext::EvaluateString that gets called shortly afterwards also does a push with AutoCxPusher.
This EvaluateString appears to just be a wrapper around nsJSUtils::EvaulateString, which asserts that the passed context is the current one.
All the other callers to nsJSContext::EvaluateString use AutoPushJSContext, so I think the AutoCxPusher (which appears to push even if the context is already top) could be replaced with a MOZ_ASSERT like in nsJSUtils::EvaluateString.

It seems like we could just short-circuit nsJSContext::EvaluateString and go directly to nsJSUtils::EvaluateString, right? That would definitely move us in the right direction.

This patch looks good conceptually. I think it would be better for our long-term ergonomics to (a) assert that any cx we pass in is identical to the one we would get if we didn't pass one and (b) if AutoEntryScript was castable to a JSContext, so we didn't have to have a second JSContext pointer lying around.

I'll attach a patch that adds those things here. r=me with this patch rebased on top of that one.

I did wonder about that and I suppose with the desire for all the JSContext stuff to go foom, it makes sense.
Shall I do that for all the callers as I come to them and then remove this function on the last one.
They are probably good candidates for me to tackle after the first 5 we talked about.

Yeah, I thought replacing one line with two seemed a little clunky.
r?ed again as I'm not sure, if you wanted me to start to get rid of calls to nsJSContext::EvaluateString.
Also, I started by keeping the JSContext pointer and implicitly casting to it.
But then I thought, as we want to get rid of these you may have meant to keep the AutoEntryScript and pass that instead of the context.

Exactly.

Though I guess this is semantically a little bit weird, since it's not immediately obvious that |entryScript| casts to JSContext*. I'll switch this to a getter. sec

I created the AutoEntryScript using |global| at first (and I guessed we must be main thread here as well, because AutoEntryScript only creates a request (via AutoCxPusher) when main thread and we need a request here.)
Removed the null check for the JSContext, given that AutoEntryScript now asserts it must have one.
Removed the NS_ASSERTION that looks like a copy paste bug anyway.

However, when I ran the tests for this area I got an assertion from ScriptSettings.h:81 - "No outer windows allowed".
So, reading the description for nsIDcoument::GetInnerWindow it seemed that it might be what we want.
All the tests for this now pass, but I'm just guessing here.

Just nix the cx param here, as well as the declaration of nsIScriptContext above. This stuff isn't perf-sensitive, and we should be fine to let AutoEntryScript automatically pull the cx off the global.

In cases like this, it'd be fine to just do

JSContext *jscontext = entryScript.cx();

to avoid churning all the lines. Doesn't matter much though.

OK, done.
Wasn't sure how keen we were to stop using JSContext, although I suppose this will all have to be re-visited and tidied up when we do anyway.

Exactly. There'll be some churn no matter what - we just want it to be mechanical/uninteresting churn.
Took a while to decide if this was always main thread because of the |aOffThreadToken|, but I think this is to do with something that has happened off thread.
Not entirely sure, the routes into this (via the fuction that calls it) are pretty convoluted.

It sparks another question though ... if we weren't main thread, would we ever need a to be in a JS Request?
Because AutoEntryScript doesn't create one if we are not main thread.

Meant to say this is an (A) from bug 951991, as it is in the spec here (Step 2. Sub-step 6.):
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/scripting-1.html#execute-the-script-block
You can probably land this batch (along with my patch) at this point.
(In reply to Bobby Holley (:bholley) from comment #22)
> You can probably land this batch (along with my patch) at this point.

I was hoping to squeeze in the other callers of nsJSContext::EvaluateScript and chop it.

Here's the first, which I believe is a type (C) from bug 951991.
The way this code used to get the JSContext and nsIScriptContext seemed a bit crazy, but we no longer need the direct reference to the script context now.
Attachment #8386977 - Flags: review?(bobbyholley)
This one seemed fairly straight forward.
It's a type (A) as I think it is step 11 from:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/history.html#javascript-protocol
which eventually leads to the jump to a code entry-point.
Attachment #8386985 - Flags: review?(bobbyholley)
Bit doubtful of this one, as I've grabbed and passed through the inner global.
Otherwise, I think I'd have had to go through the whole rigmarole again to get it in InstallField.

Also, I noticed while I was getting rid of nsJSContext::EvaluateString that there was an |NS_ENSURE_TRUE(mIsInitialized, NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED);| at the top of it.
Is this something I need to worry about?

One thing that I think we should start doing is including a comment above each AutoEntryPoint explaining why it's there.

Instead of this, I think it would make more sense just to pass thisObj to InstallField, and extract the global there. And we can probably shortcut the whole xblNode bit, by just doing xpc::WindowGlobalOrNull(js::GetGlobalForObjectCrossCompartment(thisObj));

Make sense?

Well, I'm using it to get the JSContext.
Do you mean, don't pass a JSContext and allow AutoEntryScript to get it from the global.

Do you mean get rid of all of the xblNode and global stuff from InstallXBLField (even though there are checks that return near the top) ...
or
Just re-get the global in InstallField?

I assume |xpc::WindowGlobalOrNull(js::GetGlobalForObjectCrossCompartment(thisObj));| returns the inner global?

Also, I notice that xpc::WindowGlobalOrNull calls GetGlobalForObjectCrossCompartment again, why do we have to call it twice?

Sorry about all the questions.

Which? Just the null check? From what I can tell most of this stuff can just be collapsed and simplifieid into InstallField.

Yes. There's no such thing as an 'outer global'. There are Outer Windows, whose return value from GetGlobalJSObject() is not actually a global at all.

OK.
AutoEntryScript was already in InstallField, I suppose it could be done in InstallXBLField in which case I wouldn't need to worry about the global in IntsallField.

The null check on native and on xblNode, one returns true the other throws and returns false.

I'd probably put it in the innermost call, and just collapse all the script munging there.

Those can move into the inner function as well, right?
OK, I think I understand now.
The AutoPushJSContext pushes the document's context with an AutoCxPusher which automatically enters the compartment of the document by getting the window proxy from the script context of the JSContext.

However the AutoSafeJSContext just enters the compartment of the SafeJSContextGlobal, so we need to enter the compartment of the document ourselves, which we can do in a more direct way.

Nit - The term 'innerGlobal' is a bit of a misnomer. It should either be 'global' or 'innerWin'.

Note that nsPIDOMWindow, which is the return value from GetInnerWindow, is static_castable to nsGlobalWindow*, so you can skip the QI (though you still need a null check for both the C++ object and the reflector). So:

nsGlobalWindow* win = static_cast<nsGlobalWindow*>(doc->GetInnerWindow());
if (NS_WARN_IF(!win || win->FastGetGlobalJSObject())) {
  return false;
}
AutoSafeJSContext cx;
JSAutoCompartment ac(cx, win->FastGetGlobalJSObject());

Well I'm pretty sure I'm being rather dim here, but I think I've done what you were suggesting.
The tests still seem to pass OK.

So, I've used WindowGlobalOrNull to get the nsIGlobalObject for the AutoEntryScript.
Then I've moved the checks from InstallXBLField after that, as I need the JSContext for that code.

I think that you were implying that these checks could be simplified, although I can't quite see how given that the behaviour is different in the two cases.

I think that you're tied up with other things at the moment, so I'll wait to ask for the review when I know you're free.

Sorry for not looking at this more closely before. I think this part of the check can just go away. The reason is that we only reach InstallXBLField if ValueHasISupportsPrivate is true (and we even assert so above).

As for this part of the check, I think we can just roll it into the machinery that is currently done in ValueHasISupportsPrivate. Given that XBL bindings only apply to Elements, and Elements are all on the new DOM bindings, ValueHasISupportsPrivate can just be replaced by:

bool
ValueIsElement(JS::Handle<JS::Value> v) {
  if (!v.isObject()) {
    return false;

ValueHasISupportsPrivate seems to be doing something slightly different.

If GetDOMClass returns null then it checks flags on the return of JS_GetClass.

Whereas UnwrapObject, if GetDOMClass initially returns null, does a js::CheckedUnwrap and calls GetDOMClass again on the return value.
The upshot is that sometimes ValueIsElement returns true when ValueHasISupportsPrivate doesn't and some tests fail.
At least one of these is with a <field> with a readonly attribute.

Also, the extra check of:
  nsISupports* native =
    nsContentUtils::XPConnect()->GetNativeOfWrapper(cx, thisObj);
  if (!native) {

in InstallXBLField, seems to be needed.
If I remove that (even with keeping ValueHasISupportsPrivate) 2 other tests fail.
These seem to be checking that fields aren't on the proto.
Seems like GetNativeOfWrapper drops down to UnwrapDOMObjectToISupports which returns null in some cases.

I can remove the xblNode null check without affecting any of the tests.

I'll carry on trying to work out what's going on, but I thought I'd let you know where I'm up to.

Right, but in what cases is that flag set?

Hrm.  Are those cases in which "this" is a cross-compartment wrapper for an element?  What tests are relying on us not having working fields in that case?

Seems like most of the time in ValueHasISupportsPrivate it returns at:
|    return domClass->mDOMObjectIsISupports;|

But when it doesn't, it mainly (possibly always, at least in the tests I'm running) seems to return false and |clasp->name| is "Proxy".
Is this the window proxy?

I've got both sets of code in the method and at the same time |!!e| is true;

So with ValueIsElement, could things be getting set in the window and then not where they should be?
I'll try and see, but it may not be tonight.

I'm not sure, I think most of the tests are accessing elements that are all in the same xhtml file.
Although to be honest this is the first time I've come across any of the XBL stuff, so I'm flying fairly blind.

All of the tests in this file fail with ValueIsElement:
http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/xbl/test/test_bug542406.xhtml
> Is this the window proxy?

Could be any proxy.  The way to tell is to examine the concrete type of js::GetProxyHandler(&v.toObject()).

> All of the tests in this file fail with ValueIsElement:

Huh.  That's odd.  I mean, ValueHasISupportsPrivate() returning _true_ should make fields work when they shouldn't or something, right?  But in this case it makes them not work when they should?
FWIW Bob, you're welcome to punt on shaving this yak if you'd rather get on with stuff. But I'm happy to help dig in and fix this up too. Up to you. ;-)
Got back to this, this morning armed with a freshly sharpened yak razor (gdb and a fresh pot of coffee).

So, I think I understand a little more what is happening in dom/xbl/test/test_bug542406.xhtml.

In nsXBLProtoImplField FieldGetter calls:
|JS::CallNonGenericMethod<ValueHasISupportsPrivate, FieldGetterImpl>(cx, args);|

This first calls our Test (ValueHasISupportsPrivate) with args.thisv(), which at this point is a cross compartment wrapper to our HTMLParagraphElement.
This is not a DOMClass and does not have the HAS_PRIVATE_NSISUPPORTS flags and so returns false.

So, JS::CallNonGenericMethod then calls (skipping the chain of calls) CrossCompartmentWrapper::nativeCall which seems to unwrap the arguments (or perhaps re-wraps them in the correct compartment) and re-calls CallNonGenericMethod.
This now calls our Test again and this time thisv is the paragraph element and so is a DOMCLass.

If I put ValueIsElement in, when it gets called with the proxy UNWRAP_OBJECT realises it is a wrapper and unwraps it, finds that it it is an Element so we return true.
So InstallXBLField gets called with the wrapper and because the test has passed CallNonGenericMethod doesn't call CrossCompartmentWrapper::nativeCall.

In the old code (with ValueIsElement) this sails through the checks and retrieval of |global| and |context|, because the first check calls GetNativeOfWrapper, which unwraps the element.
It then promptly blows up in InstallField when it calls xpc::GetXBLScope.

In the new code the first time we interact with |thisObj| is as |aBoundNode| in InstallField -  |xpc::WindowGlobalOrNull(aBoundNode);|
This returns null, and in an attempt to replicate previous behaviour (from InstallXBLField), I return NS_OK and nothing gets installed, so we get undefined. 


So, onto the second yak - why do we need the lines (originally in InstallXBLField):
  nsISupports* native = nsContentUtils::XPConnect()->GetNativeOfWrapper(cx, thisObj);
  if (!native) {
    // Looks like whatever |thisObj| is it's not our nsIContent.  It might well
    // be the proto our binding installed, however, where the private is the
    // nsXBLDocumentInfo, so just baul out quietly.  Do NOT throw an exception
    // here.
    //
    // We could make this stricter by checking the class maybe, but whatever.
    return true;
  }

This seems to be to prevent the field getting set on the __proto__
In dom/xbl/test/test_bug372769.html for the test:
  is(d.__proto__.seventeen, undefined, "Shouldn't have this on proto");

FieldGetter gets called with the prototype, which doesn't seem to be a DOMClass, but passes the subsequent flag check in ValueHasISupportsPrivate.
It then gets caught by the "native" check above and fails silently, which results in undefined.

At first I couldn't understand how these tests were working with ValueIsElement, as the __proto__ isn't an Element.
Eventually I spotted that it wasn't initalising |e| to null and UNWRAP_OBJECT doesn't affect the |value| when it fails, so ValueIsElement was always returning true.
Once, I'd fixed that, it broke the tests completely as the getter throws an exception, so as it is currently structured we need to have the flag checks as well as the native check.


As a slight aside the "seventeen" test above implies that if the field was defined in the binding that we are extending then it should be on the __proto__.
I couldn't see how this would work from the code and sure enough if I add a test of:
  is(d.__proto__.thirteen, "13 ancestor", "Should be on proto");
  
it fails, which seems a bit wrong.


So it might be best to leave ValueHasISupportsPrivate and the |native| and |xblNode| checks in InstallXBLField and just remove the |global| and |context| from there and use WindowGlobalOrNull to get the nsIGlobalObject we want in InstallField.
Not sure how much of an overhead that adds.
I'm also not sure if the current behaviour is correct, but this should replicate it.

The field getter/setter are on the proto.  But they should not actually change the proto in any way.  |is(d.__proto__.thirteen, "13 ancestor", "Should be on proto");| should fail.

It sounds like the basic issue is that the predicate passed to CallNonGenericMethod needs to only return true if the object is really the sort of object we want to work with; it should never unwrap proxies...

OK, thanks bz.

Right, but it also needs to return true for objects on which we don't actually want to install a field, but don't want to throw an exception either.

But, can we (or do we need to) improve much on the checks that are already there?
Also, does using WindowGlobalOrNull in InstallField, but leaving the |native| and |xblNode| checks in InstallXBLField (even though we don't use them for anything else anymore), add much of an overhead?
> But, can we (or do we need to) improve much on the checks that are already there?

I'll claim that's way out of the scope of this bug.

nsEventListenerManager has been renamed to EventListenerManager.

Two of them are just text but the others look like they might cause someone some pain.

Eh, I wouldn't worry about it. trace-malloc/types.dat is full of references to things that have been renamed or removed. I don't know if anyone is actually using that file anymore. And the comments, well, they could be fixed up, but it's not that hard to find the rename. Just keep walking. ;-)

Yeah, sorry.
That order would work (it happened to be how it was in my queue), but probably makes most sense to push bholley's patch first and then 1 to 8.
