See upcoming testcase, which crashes current trunk Mozilla builds on load. It could be that it's only crashing after second load. It consists of this: <table style="display: table-caption;"> <keygen style="display: table-caption;"> <span style="display: table-caption;"> <span style="display: table-row-group;"> <body style="display: table-row-group;"> <input> Talkback ID: TB19965177Z GetNifOrSpecialSibling nsCSSFrameConstructor::FindFrameWithContent nsCSSFrameConstructor::FindPrimaryFrameFor nsFrameManager::GetPrimaryFrameFor nsCSSFrameConstructor::FindPrimaryFrameFor nsFrameManager::GetPrimaryFrameFor nsCSSFrameConstructor::FindPrimaryFrameFor nsFrameManager::GetPrimaryFrameFor nsGenericElement::GetPrimaryFrameFor nsGenericHTMLElement::GetFormControlFrame nsHTMLInputElement::SaveState 0xed6ccfb8 This regressed between 2005-11-30 and 2005-12-15. Ria, you have builds inbetween to look for a narrower regression range?
This is the original file from which the testcase is derived from. Talkback ID: TB19965429M nsGenericHTMLElement::SetScrollLeft nsGenericHTMLElementTearoff::SetScrollLeft XPCWrappedNative::CallMethod As you can see, it's crashing in quite some different area. Not sure what that means.

With this file I crash also in a different part of the code. Talkback ID: TB19965484Z nsCachedStyleData::GetStyleData nsGenericHTMLElement::GetOffsetRect nsGenericHTMLElement::GetOffsetHeight nsGenericHTMLElementTearoff::GetOffsetHeight XPCWrappedNative::CallMethod
Regression between 1.9a1_2005120305 and 1.9a1_2005120315. Can't reproduce the crash in the first build at least.
Thanks, Ria! I guess bug 309322 is the 'guilty' one.

I'm seeing some weird looking stacks here and in bug 343270 so I'm marking this Security-Sensitive for now... I have a fix for this bug and bug 343270 (which is similar) and it also fixes the assertions in bug 337476. I need sleep before attempting to explain it... (table frame construction)

> I need sleep before attempting to explain it... (table frame construction) this is a well known problem ;-)
Mats, could you please attach the patch even if it is half baked. I think I hit the issue with a less severe case at bug 343946. I really need the patch to advance with bug 339128.
Attached patch Patch rev. 1 (deleted) — — Splinter Review
We're trying to insert a SELECT. In ContentInserted() we find an insertion point which happens to have a CaptionFrame and thus |parentFrame| is the outer table frame when we call ConstructFrame() for the child. I guess this is reasonable since we haven't resolved the child's style yet so we can't say much about the final frame for the child. Fix: make AdjustParentFrame() deal with the outer table case, adjusting to the inner table as needed and then look at the result in ContentInserted() adjusting the insertion point data accordingly. I'll attach a content dump + frame dump before and after ContentInserted() so you can see the result with this patch. I think the frame tree is the correct one. (I also removed |tempItems| because it's not needed)

Attached file Content+frame dumps with Patch rev. 1 (deleted) —
I understand the first chunk and think it is correct. You have however to null check the new parent frame. I have seen several occasions where the outer table was reflown without an inner. I've put there a 0 deref stop and I would like to see here one too. I would like to avoid the next fire drill. You might add an assert however. I don't get the + // If the final parent frame (decided by AdjustParentFrame()) is different + // from the parent of the insertion point we calculated above then + // parentFrame/prevSibling/appendAfterFrame are now invalid (bug 341858). + if (frameItems.childList && + frameItems.childList->GetParent() != parentFrame) { + prevSibling = nsnull; + isAppend = PR_TRUE; + parentFrame = + ::AdjustAppendParentForAfterContent(mPresShell->GetPresContext(), + aContainer, + frameItems.childList->GetParent(), + &appendAfterFrame); + } + part. Wouldn't we hit this thing with normal (pseudo) frame construction also when we execute in nsCSSFrameConstructor::AdjustParentFrame(nsFrameConstructorState& aState, aParentFrame = aState.mPseudoFrames.mCellInner.mFrame; ? If so, why did this not cause issues before? The problem here is that in former times we did forbid the creation of a second caption, however this causes crashes with fixed pos etc. Now that a caption can have a sibling content we need to put them sometimes on a different place.
(In reply to comment #11) > I understand the first chunk and think it is correct. > You have however to null check the new parent frame. I'll add an assertion. I think we should maintain the invariant that an outer table frame always has an inner. > I have seen several occasions where the outer table > was reflown without an inner. Please file a bug and CC me when that occurs. > + // If the final parent frame (decided by AdjustParentFrame()) is different > + // from the parent of the insertion point we calculated above then > > Wouldn't we hit this thing with normal (pseudo) frame construction also ... > If so, why did this not cause issues before? In case we create pseudo frames |frameItems.childList| is the top pseudo, otherwise it's just the primary frame for the child. In both cases |frameItems.childList->GetParent()| should be |parentFrame|. This is the case uptil now. This patch adds the possibility that the new frames (pseudo or not) is actually created in the inner table frame when the original |parentFrame| is an outer table frame (which would only occur in the specific case we have in this bug: trying to add a sibling caption, in all other cases ConstructFrame() will be given the inner table frame and we will "adjust" captions after the fact by inserting them in the outer). I could have missed something though, so please elaborate if you think there is a case where this is not true. I can add the following assertion in the if-block if you want: NS_ASSERTION(parentFrame->GetType() == nsLayoutAtoms::tableOuterFrame && frameItems.childList->GetParent()->GetType() == nsLayoutAtoms::tableFrame, "bad parent frame change");
So wait. Isn't the real issue that we end up with the caption as a "sane" prevsibling or nextsibling for the select? In my opinion this is wrong. Maybe we should just special-case this and not use the prevsibling to get the parent if the type of the prevsibling is tableCaptionFrame? Would that fix things too? Seems like it'd be simpler. That said, it seems like nsCSSFrameConstructor::IsValidSibling should handle that already. How is it failing?
Wait. Is this trunk-only? On trunk, IsValidSibling is semi-busted. See bug 347898 comment 7. So maybe this patch is indeed the right way to go.

(In reply to comment #14) > Wait. Is this trunk-only? The testcases don't crash on the latest 1.8.1 build or 1.8.0.6 build, only trunk builds.
Only trunk accepts multiple captions, all branches have the double caption supression which has its own merrits (aka crash bugs)
Bernd, what do you think of this patch? And my comments in bug 347898 comment 7?
Sorry for the delay but I need to debug this first to understand whats going on. However this will go after bug 347725 which is regression crash on the 1.8.1 branch.
>bz: On trunk, IsValidSibling is semi-busted. Hmm regardless how many beer I have, I can't understand what is not busted in this function. Its plain wrong to me. It uses display instead of frame types, it does some fancy caching of things it shouldn't cache. Reading back bug 136848 where the whole was introduced is pretty entertaining. My bet is that the function is not fixable. It uses style before xbl resolution. Its completely special content agnostic. This was good enough to get NS6 out of the door but I guess it has done its duties. So I guess, the way Mats is heading is correct. Adjust the parent once we know (after xbl) where we are.
> Its plain wrong to me. OK, I buy that too. The problem is that we're determining the parentFrame before we resolve XBL stuff, and determining the parentFrame involves doing this IsValidSibling stuff, right? Or some equivalent?
Comment on attachment 228528 [details] [diff] [review] Patch rev. 1 Boris just head over to bug 136848 and look if you would r/sr the original patch there. (All my experience shows that the patch would be faster r-'ed than written). IsValidSibling ( http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/layout/base/nsCSSFrameConstructor.cpp#8548) is a misnomer, its just Chris'HackToGetTheTableParentRight stuffed later with the fieldset legend, which is very similiar to tables as Chris wrote it. My prediction is that Mats approach makes the table part in IsValidSibling obsolete if not we should move the logic at the place where Mats suggested to adjust the parent. With that in mind I would prefer if we split the first part of the patch into a seperate function that would later harbor the functionality of IsvalidSibling.

OK. I'll try to review this in detail ASAP. Thanks for looking into it!

IsSpecialContent() is not exactly cheap. I'd like to avoid calling it if we can. Could we just call it lazily (and keep a boolean that indicates we don't need to call it again or something)?

That doesn't make much sense to me. I guess it's an easy fallback if we feel that all such cases are error cases anyway or something... But it feels like with this code it's easy to have the same DOM have two very different frame structures depending on the order of DOM operations to get to it, which is a little odd to me....

In principle you are right but in pseudo reality we handle non of the pseudo DOM operations correctly. So there is no hope at this place to recover the correct insertion point.

Mats, I am not certain what is going on your side but I need this thing moving. I would prefer if you would check it in as it is your patch. I have enough cvs blame that I prefer not to watch tinderbox ;-) and don't wan't to steal patches. If you could just comment whether there is a issue with the patch or you will check in and when, I would feel much better. Thanks
