17:16:34 INFO - 4933 INFO TEST-START | /tests/content/media/test/test_seek.html <-- test starts! It could be the test has a really long running time and causes timeout. However, the timestamp printed by SimpleTest.info is not always reliable. Btw, I think there might be a bug in the seeking code of MediaDecoderStateMachine. I found timeouts in test_bug465498, test_loop, and test_seek which all involves seeking. I think it will really help to split the test to narrow down the scope to find out the bug.
Flags: needinfo?(jwwang)
This is a try push which increases the timeout for this test by 2x, and the timeouts still happen. This is probably not due to the length of this test's runtime. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=a6717375e338

From the logs, it looks like sometimes timer callback with timeout==0 failed to fire on OS X 10.6 Debug and therefore MediaDecoderStateMachine just got stuck. It is more prone to happen especially after seeking. I will test if this strange behavior happens on other platforms as well.

That change happened for mochitest-1 in March of 2013, not in March of 2014. Some single-core related bustage may well have landed in March of this year, but the media tests were only their usual normal crappy selves on single-core AWS slaves for an entire year before they went to hell last month.

Perhaps we should try increasing the timeout using SimpleTest.requestLongerTimeout?

(1) enable test on windows. (2) longer timeout for it could take over 10 mins on B2G. (3) release decoder to avoid timeout on waiting for decoding resource. try: https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=4af929401f9e linux: 454 runs, no test_seek.html timeouts windows: 235 runs, no test_seek.html timeouts android: 176 runs, 2 test_seek.html timeouts on Android 2.2 Opt This patch seems to stop timeouts from Linux platforms. I will continue investigating the timeouts on B2G and Android.

Is anything going to happen with this test? The timeout frequency is really high.
comment 808 timed out for the fixes are not applied. Most others timed out for crash...
This failure seems to be more frequent with HTTP cache v2 on. Who should I ask how to get a fix here? I strongly believe it's not a bug in the new cache but in the test. Is it possible to rather disable this test?
Flags: needinfo?(jwwang)
There are certainly bugs in the media code, but I remain to be convinced that test_seek.html fails with the new HTTP cache solely due to bugs in the media code. I accept that it's possible however. ;) I don't want to disable test_seek, it tests important functionality that we don't want to regress. Turning on the new HTTP cache is also important. jwwang, can you please work with Honza to help figure out why test_seek fails when the new HTTP cache is turned on? It would be much appreciated. It would be good if someone can make the change suggested by Honza in bug 977314 comment 8 too.
According https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Gum&rev=b790747b7b08 M(1) on Windows something needs to happen here :(

Part of the reason I'm hesitant to believe that the media code is entirely to blame is that in debug builds on Windows test_seek.html can sometimes take 45 seconds to load gizmo.mp4 from httpd.js. This is a 445KB file. I think this is partially causing our timeouts in this test. I don't know what's going on here, there could be a bug in necko, media, or httpd.js, or somewhere else. I don't have cycles to look into it, but it's a cause for concern when it takes so long to download such a small file from a local webserver. opt builds seem fine however.
Chris, is the file being loaded from the server and not from the cache? Do we send out the request and not get an answer? Any more data or ref to the logs so I can take a look? Also, bug 1005475 could potentially (tho unlikely) help here (I need to merge gum to include that fix in it and see how the tree looks, tomorrow).

When browser.cache.use_new_backend is 1, sometimes OnStartRequest is not fired (ChannelMediaResource::Listener::OnStartRequest) and the media decoder reader get stuck in MediaCacheStream::Read for there is no incoming data from the channel. However, when browser.cache.use_new_backend is 0, OnStartRequest is always fired after calling ChannelMediaResource::RecreateChannel and ChannelMediaResource::OpenChannel. I checked every return value from nsIHttpChannel/nsIChannel functions and found no error. Should I check nsHttp logs to find out why OnStartRequest not fired?

That's an interesting find! Is OnDataAvailable and OnStopRequest called there after? I assume not, just want to make sure. Note that OnStartRequest must always be called by the channel, so here it seems like we do something wrong. > > However, when browser.cache.use_new_backend is 0, OnStartRequest is always > fired after calling ChannelMediaResource::RecreateChannel and > ChannelMediaResource::OpenChannel. > > I checked every return value from nsIHttpChannel/nsIChannel functions and > found no error.

So, please create a log with NSPR_LOG_MODULES="timestamp,nsHttp:4,cache2:5" + any of your media logs you can add to0, send it to me and - the most important - *point me to the ChannelMediaResource::Listener in that log* that did not get the proper OnStartRequest call. I can then search down to the cache code and see what misbehaves. Thanks!

Go to line 26742: |OpenChannel, aStreamListener=0 decoder=7ff4bee35060 stream=7ff49a0558b8| |OpenChannel, mListener=7ff49a2f9f70| You will see a channel is opened for stream=7ff49a0558b8, listener=7ff49a2f9f70. However ChannelMediaResource::Listener::OnStartRequest is not called for the listener=7ff49a2f9f70. When it got stuck in MediaCacheStream::Read, I deliberately called MOZ_ASSERT(false) to make the problem obvious to catch. ps: refer to https://hg.mozilla.org/try/diff/f57576e7a866/content/media/MediaResource.cpp and https://hg.mozilla.org/try/diff/f57576e7a866/content/media/MediaCache.cpp for logs I added.

JW, thanks! This is a perfect example of an inter module cooperation. It took 4 minutes to find the cause for me thanks your fantastic pointing to right place in the log. It's a cache2 bug this time (bug 1009500) Only unfortunate thing is that this will not fix this bug :( only the cache2 spike.
Cache 2 spikes fixed with bug 1009500. Unblocking.
No longer blocks: cache2tests
Disabled test_seek.html on all platforms for being a persistent source of intermittent test failures in multiple bugs: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/rev/a95eb3950035

Disabling test_seek is unacceptable. It tests functionality that is too important for us to continue working on the overwhelming backlog of features without test coverage. It looks like test_seek is mostly failing on b2g and android, so I am going to re-enable on all platforms except b2g and android.
Re-enabled test_seek on platforms other than android and b2g. It's mostly orange on android and b2g. https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/rev/2937a989dbf8
Agreed with Chris. test_seek is important, and it did catch bugs other than the media-related. (see comment 861) There is a bug about nsITimer (bug 1033121) which could cause timeouts in all media tests on all platforms. However Android seems to hit the bug more often. I think the bug will be fixed soon, and then we can see if there is a significant decrease in timeout rate on Android.

I disabled on other platforms since there are !B2G/Android failures in bug 981153, however they are fewer in number, but I can deal with that as a compromise. Please can we take this as a sign that the ratio of time spent on new features to time spent on fixing the ones that were not reliable (and/or the unreliable tests for them) needs to be moved more towards the latter? Otherwise we're just going to be having this same conversation in another few dozen media test failure bugs yet again in the future...
Anthony mentioned that splitting this test might help things. I opened bug 1036992 for that.

test_seek.html has been split into test_seek-*.html. We can close this bug now.
