This alters nsIWebBrowserPersistable so that startPersistence takes an
outerWindowID. This allows us to target a particular subframe from
beneath an nsFrameLoader, which is useful when attempting to Save
Frame As a remote browser.
This is motivated by three separate but related problems:
1. Our concept of recursion depth is broken for things that run from AfterProcessNextEvent observers (e.g. Promises). We decrement the recursionDepth counter before firing observers, so a Promise callback running at the lowest event loop depth has a recursion depth of 0 (whereas a regular nsIRunnable would be 1). This is a problem because it's impossible to distinguish a Promise running after a sync XHR's onreadystatechange handler from a top-level event (since the former runs with depth 2 - 1 = 1, and the latter runs with just 1).
2. The nsIThreadObserver mechanism that is used by a lot of code to run "after" the current event is a poor fit for anything that runs script. First, the order the observers fire in is the order they were added, not anything fixed by spec. Additionally, running script can cause the event loop to spin, which is a big source of pain here (bholley has some nasty bug caused by this).
3. We run Promises from different points in the code for workers and main thread. The latter runs from XPConnect's nsIThreadObserver callbacks, while the former runs from a hardcoded call to run Promises in the worker event loop. What workers do is particularly problematic because it means we can't get the right recursion depth no matter what we do to nsThread.
The solve this, this patch does the following:
1. Consolidate some handling of microtasks and all handling of stable state from appshell and WorkerPrivate into CycleCollectedJSRuntime.
2. Make the recursionDepth counter only available to CycleCollectedJSRuntime (and its consumers) and remove it from the nsIThreadInternal and nsIThreadObserver APIs.
3. Adjust the recursionDepth counter so that microtasks run with the recursionDepth of the task they are associated with.
4. Introduce the concept of metastable state to replace appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent. Metastable state is reached after every microtask or task is completed. This provides the semantics that bent and I want for IndexedDB, where transactions autocommit at the end of a microtask and do not "spill" from one microtask into a subsequent microtask. This differs from appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent in two ways:
a) It fires between microtasks, which was the motivation for starting this.
b) It no longer ensures that we're at the same event loop depth in the native event queue. bent decided we don't care about this.
5. Reorder stable state to happen after microtasks such as Promises, per HTML. Right now we call the regular thread observers, including appshell, before the main thread observer (XPConnect), so stable state tasks happen before microtasks.
After this change, we have PLDHashTable::ShallowSizeOf{In,Ex}cludingThis(),
which don't do anything to measure children. (They can be combined with
iteration to measure children.)
This patch also removes the PL_DHashTableSizeOf{In,Ex}cludingThis() functions.
They're not necessary because the methods can be used instead.
Finally, the patch deliberately converts some SizeOfExcludingThis() calls to
SizeOfIncludingThis(). These are all done on heap pointers so this change is
valid.
Currently we don't check the dom.push.enabled pref in some cases for
some of these interfaces. This patch unifies how all of these
interfaces are exposed to Window, Worker, and ServiceWorker.

This change splits PLDHashTable::Iterator::NextEntry() into two separate
functions, which allow you to get the current element and advance the iterator
separately, which means you can use a for-loop to iterate instead of a
while-loop.
As part of this change, the internals of PLDHashTable::Iterator were
significantly changed and simplified (and modelled after js::HashTable's
equivalent code). It's no longer duplicating code from PL_DHashTableEnumerator.
The chaos mode code was a casualty of this, but given how unreliable that code
has proven to be (see bug 1173212, bug 1174046) this is for the best. (We can
reimplement chaos mode once PLDHashTable::Iterator is back on more solid
footing again, if we think it's important.)
All these changes will make it much easier to add an alternative Iterator that
removes elements, which was turning out to be difficult with the prior code.
In order to make the for-loop header usually fit on a single line, I
deliberately renamed a bunch of things to have shorter names.
In summary, you used to write this:
PLDHashTable::Iterator iter(&table);
while (iter.HasMoreEntries()) {
auto entry = static_cast<FooEntry*>(iter.NextEntry());
// ... do stuff with |entry| ...
}
// iter's scope extends beyond here
and now you write this:
for (auto iter = table.Iter(); !iter.Done(); iter.Next()) {
auto entry = static_cast<FooEntry*>(iter.Get());
// ... do stuff with |entry| ...
}
// iter's scope doesn't reach here
These new content policy types will be internal ones that we will map
to external nsContentPolicyTypes before passing them to content policy
implementations.
nsContentUtils::CallOnAllRemoteChildren calls a callback on all tabs
connected to a given window but it has only worked in Firefox e10s tabs.
This patch adds a list of (weak) references to each top-level document's
WindowRoot so that e.g. the nsPresContext can access them instead of
using nsContentUtils. This provides a solution to the problem of finding remote PBrowsers generally.
