[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: This bug was filed from the Socorro interface and is report bp-84a86876-d189-4320-af90-091ce2160210. ============================================================= Stack Trace: 0 xul.dll gfxContext::PushGroupAndCopyBackground(gfxContentType, float, mozilla::gfx::SourceSurface*, mozilla::gfx::Matrix const&) gfx/thebes/gfxContext.cpp 1 xul.dll mozilla::layers::BasicLayerManager::PushGroupForLayer(gfxContext*, mozilla::layers::Layer*, mozilla::gfx::IntRegionTyped<mozilla::gfx::UnknownUnits> const&) gfx/layers/basic/BasicLayerManager.cpp All those stacks are only those two frames, and have an address of 0x0. This crash signature spiked in 45.0b4 and is 6.8% of total crashes (and 4.8% of non-e10s crashes) - while it was only 1.1% of non-e10s crashes in 45.0b3.
Bas, is this related to your push group / pop group stuff?

The spike isn't limited to b4, b3(/2/1) shows the same spike. e10s hit with tipple crashes compared to non-e10s for this.

This fix is a little speculative as I don't know what causes this and I can't reproduce it locally, by guess would be something like a device loss. But even if it's something else I'm fine with losing subpixel AA instead of crashing. This implements that. On trunk this bug is superceeded by native pushlayer. I'll prepare a patch for beta and request uplift once this has been r+'ed.

Tracking for 46 since this is a top crash. It doesn't appear to affect 46 or 47.

Comment on attachment 8718301 [details] MozReview Request: Bug 1247380: Only copy the background if we can succesfully get a snapshot. r=jrmuizel Cairo does. We've dealt with a bunch of cairo surface state errors in the past (one of them was when using certain fonts for some reason iirc). This is presumably why this crash signature spiked, we've made a number of places inside the Cairo Moz2D code return nullptr more aggressively when there's state issues recently.

To make people happier with some additional information, I believe this was a regression from http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6c49bb716593. Before that change CreateSimilarDT would return a nullptr when the surface was in an error state, this would cause us to crash in gfxContext::PushNewDT.

Comment on attachment 8718301 [details] MozReview Request: Bug 1247380: Only copy the background if we can succesfully get a snapshot. r=jrmuizel Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]: Technically not a regression, changed stack from a fix for the PushNewDT crash. [User impact if declined]: More crashes. [Describe test coverage new/current, TreeHerder]: None, since this code is no longer used on 46 or higher [Risks and why]: Very low, just a nullcheck [String/UUID change made/needed]: None

control-no-addons 10.94%, experiment-no-addons 33.77%. (low samples, experiment just started.) Hints to me that it is possibly an advert.

This is also the #1 Top Crash Score in 44.0.2 release.
(In reply to Robert Kaiser (:kairo@mozilla.com) from comment #17) > This is also the #1 Top Crash Score in 44.0.2 release. Hrm, it seems the cause of this got uplifted in bug 1107792. In theory this just 'moves' a crash to another signature rather than causing a new one though. I'll land this patch on beta now. If it works it could be worth uplifting if there is going to be another dot release. But it should be noted this is not a regression.
