console methods (console.timeline, console.profile, etc.) to control the new performance recording
Blocks: perf-tool-v2
Depends on: 1077447
We need to ensure that "clear" correctly stops and removes in progress console recordings

In Chrome, console.profile("foo") on one document, and console.profileEnd("foo") on a subsequent document will work. Maybe clearing out in progress console recordings doesn't make sense.

Attached patch 1077464-console-profile.patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This was fun. Created many bugs for future additions. This patch is large enough, mostly focusing on the ability to have multiple recordings at once. Some general concepts: * Starting/stopping console profiles will not auto select them, like normal profiles * The PerformanceActorsConnection emits recording models in events, and does not store them after they're completed. It starts up the performance tools when needed (on first console.profile), but does not select them. The approach is these recording models are like child actors, pretty much. To further this idea, nowhere else in the views/controller should they be created, so should change that for importing recordings in the future (the only place that the front does this now, I believe). * As of now, console.profile recordings use the same settings as the normal UI recordings (ticks, memory, etc) -- we may want to disable things like memory, or something. I have a patch to show when the perf++ tool is doing something, so a developer would have to see it with the tools open, so it's not like it'd be a hidden surprise cost, I think. * duplicately labeled recordings are no longer special -- can discuss in bug 1144388 * other bugs filed to increase snappiness/perceived snappiness, as this certainly increased the stress tests of our recordings * Handling the toggling on/off of memory/ticks while multiple recordings are recording may cause weirdness, need to figure out how we want to handle that I have other comments on this, but can't think of them right now.

This currently deals with the starting/stopping/matching of labels from console.profile/End in the performance front -- was unaware the profiler actor did this too! I think we should move that logic to the PerformanceFront so its all in one place and keep our actors in sync, and remove the console.profile logic (outside of emitting events) in the profiler backend actor.

Need to do something like in bug 1132713, where we don't even try to connect to the profiler in the shared connection, as none of the underlying actors exist.

Attached patch 1077464-console-profile.patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
I believe the leaks were due to gDevTools never destroying the performance actor connection when a toolbox is destroyed -- the performance tool would use the same connection, and destroy it when closed. When interacting with the toolbox outside of the perf tool, the connection was never explicitly destroyed previously, and didn't cause any leaks. In this patch, we retain the toolbox in the connection, causing the leaks. Changes: * Toolbox is no longer stored in the connection. We lazily fetch this if and when we need from the target (on console.profile) * gDevTools no longer sets up the perf connection. This is handled in the toolbox's ctor/dtor. On open, the perf connection is fetched/created and opened, but only in tests do we yield for this to finish. * performance tool's panel no longer destroys the shared perf connection. This is handled by the toolbox. It also fetches the connection directly from the toolbox itself. If this try push is successful, the areas for new review are performance/panel.js, and toolbox.js https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=4688879dc761
Attachment #8586850 - Attachment is obsolete: true
Latest try push has some failures for bug 1151703's tests (parsing html timeline markers), which I'm feeling this patch is not the culprit. Another error, though, is probably because gDevTools.testing is not on in style editor, where the perf connection is lazily loaded: 5638 INFO TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | browser/devtools/shadereditor/test/browser_se_editors-contents.js | A promise chain failed to handle a rejection: - at resource://gre/modules/commonjs/toolkit/loader.js -> resource:///modules/devtools/performance/front.js:212 - TypeError: this._client is null

notes to self: me and pbrosset believe it's from the change in `gDevTools.testing` requiring the full start up of the profiler now before tests can continue, causing a race condition (most likely) in the animation inspector's startup and missing an inspector-updated event. Will check it out in the morning

Still some failures intermittently atleast with animation inspector. Looks like with e10s, and waiting for the profiler connection to be made, the "animationinspector-ready" event on sidebar is missed sometimes. Now checks for the AI doc's ready state as well.

Is there a specific reason for the amount of escaping in this string? http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/diff/963ca422f7c5/browser/locales/en-US/chrome/browser/devtools/profiler.properties If all that escaping is actually needed, I fear this will break all over the place in localized builds.
