2. Scroll the small scrollable area (by rotating mouse wheel) down, then up
3. In less than 3 seconds, autoscroll the page down, then up

AR:  The small scrollable area stays blank for 0.5 second. Sometimes it stays blank for 5+ seconds.
ER:  The small scrollable area shouldn't become blank

You should check the regression range.

This is regression from bug 1253860. Regression range:

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: rendering glitch persists


To make matters worse, the rendering glitch persists
3. middleclick on the root element to start autoscroll and move mouse downward, then upward and then click mouse on toolbar.

Dropping needinfo, I'll look at this again when I triage the rest of the bugs arni filed that ended up in the APZ component.

I can't reproduce this, but it sounds related to bug 1259593. I might need to get logs from somebody that can reproduce it.

I can reproduce where part of the small scrollable area stays blank for about a second.
Attachment #8823442 - Attachment is obsolete: true
Ah, I can reproduce now. I wasn't scrolling the main page far enough - with the minimap on I can see that we need to scroll the main page far enough to cause the displayport to move down, and then scroll back up. If you only scroll so that the iframe is out of view that might not be far enough.
If I'm understanding this properly, the problem is similar to the one in bug 1259593, in that the intersection of the dirtyRect (i.e. the ancestor scrollframe's displayport), the scrollPort (of the subframe) and the rootCompBounds comes out empty. The paint in which this happens looks kind of like this:

+--- Ancestor Displayport ---+ <-- top of displayport (dirtyRect)
|                            |
|   +-- Subframe -------+    |
|   |                   |    |
|   |                   |    |
|   |                   |    |
|   +-------------------+    |
|                            |
+ - - - - - - - - - - - - - -+ <-- top of user-visible area (rootCompBounds)
|                            |
|                            |
|                            |
|      User-visible area     |
|                            |
|                            |
|                            |
+ - - - - - - - - - - - - - -+ <-- bottom of user-visible area
|                            |
+----------------------------+ <-- bottom of displayport

Note that the "rootCompBounds" ends up being the "user visible area" in the diagram, which is disjoint from the "mScrollPort" (the subframe), even though both are inside the "aDirtyRect" (the ancestor displayport). I think in this case we want to having a displayport base on the subframe which is the size of mScrollPort but because we just intersect the three values it comes out empty.

A specific numerical example I observed had these values (in app units):

dirtyRect: (x=-12780, y=-12780, w=114300, h=238080)
scrollPort: (x=0, y=0, w=87720, h=23400)
rootCompbounds: (x=-12779, y=76259, w=114300, h=65339)
So based on this I'm thinking the correct fix is what Timothy described in bug 1259593 comment 1, but instead of taking an equal amount from all sides, we want to do something a little smarter in the way we crop it. I'll cook up a patch, probably on Monday.
So my fix here basically translates the rootCompBounds value to maximize overlap with the subframe before doing the intersection. So in the diagram above, rootCompBounds would move "up" until the bottom edge of the rootCompBounds lines up with the bottom edge of the subframe box. If it turns out that the subframe is really really tall, this still does the right thing (the intersection takes the bottom rootCompBounds.height-sized chunk of the subframe) and if the subframe is shorter than rootCompBounds it just takes the whole height. The analogous change applies to all four directions.

Try push is at https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=3421d952851ee50d3d9276ddd9e7af247f37eb5f, I'm going to verify it doesn't reintroduce bug 1262151 before putting it up for review.
Verified that the patch doesn't seem to regress bug 1262151.

Bug 1327095 - Shift the rootCompBounds to maximize overlap with the displayportBase before intersecting.

I like it! Not as complicated as I thought.
