This was added in bug 722853 and it's showing up in querySelector profiles. Can we not skip all this stuff based on our visited handling value?
What's the exact semantics of mVisitedHandling?
That's the part I can't recall exactly.... But for the case of querySelector, the semantic is "treat all links as unvisited".
Does that only happen when we're in PB mode then? Or can it also be on as a result of a pref being set, etc.?
What do you mean? The point is that querySelector(":visited") will always return null, no matter what's going on with PB mode. So there's no point checking for the PB mode stuff under querySelector, since it always treats all links as unvisited anyway, no matter what.

Indeed it is! :-) Which makes me think, how should I test this patch? I ran the PB tests and the layout/style tests and everything seemed to be fine. I guess I'll push it to try.

Hmm, this patch is not correct, it fails a test that we have for exactly this reason: https://tbpl.mozilla.org/php/getParsedLog.php?id=12462342&tree=Try Is the TreeMatchContext used for things other than querySelector?
Yes, of course. It's used for all selector matching. The real question is whether the eRelevantLinkUnvisited value is used elsewhere... and if so why ignoring private browsing there makes that elsewhere fail.

Some of the TreeMatchContext's in nsStyleSet.cpp are constructed using eRelevantLinkUnvisited, which is why this happens, I think. Given that, can we really avoid accessing the docshell here?
For the querySelector case, absolutely. We only need to touch the docshell to find out whether it's OK to tell the consumer about visitedness stuff, but querySelector doesn't expose that to start with...
So, is it find if I add a new argument to the TreeMatchContext's ctor which is set by the caller to ask for this check to be skipped?
It would be fine by my, esp, seeing as the constructor is inlined so the compiler could optimize this pretty well.
