We want to ensure that nsThread's use of nsEventQueue uses locking done
in nsThread instead of nsEventQueue, for efficiency's sake: we only need
to lock once in nsThread, rather than the current situation of locking
in nsThread and additionally in nsEventQueue. With the current
structure of nsEventQueue, that would mean that nsThread should be using
a Monitor internally, rather than a Mutex.
Which would be well and good, except that DOM workers use nsThread's
mutex to protect their own, internal CondVar. Switching nsThread to use
a Monitor would mean that either:
- DOM workers drop their internal CondVar in favor of nsThread's
Monitor-owned CondVar. This change seems unlikely to work out well,
because now the Monitor-owned CondVar is performing double duty:
tracking availability of events in nsThread's event queue and
additionally whatever DOM workers were using a CondVar for. Having a
single CondVar track two things in such a fashion is for Experts Only.
- DOM workers grow their own Mutex to protect their own CondVar. Adding
a mutex like this would change locking in subtle ways and seems
unlikely to lead to success.
Using a Monitor in nsThread is therefore untenable, and we would like to
retain the current Mutex that lives in nsThread. Therefore, we need to
have nsEventQueue manage its own condition variable and push the
required (Mutex) locking to the client of nsEventQueue. This scheme
also seems more fitting: external clients merely need synchronized
access to the event queue; the details of managing notifications about
events in the event queue should be left up to the event queue itself.
Doing so also forces us to merge nsEventQueueBase and nsEventQueue:
there's no way to have nsEventQueueBase require an externally-defined
Mutex and then have nsEventQueue subclass nsEventQueueBase and provide
its own Mutex to the superclass. C++ initialization rules (and the way
things like CondVar are constructed) simply forbid it. But that's OK,
because we want a world where nsEventQueue is externally locked anyway,
so there's no reason to have separate classes here.
One casualty of this work is removing ChaosMode support from
nsEventQueue. nsEventQueue had support to delay placing events into the
queue, theoretically giving other threads the chance to put events there
first. Unfortunately, since the thread would have been holding a lock
(as is evident from the MutexAutoLock& parameter required), sleeping in
PutEvent accomplishes nothing but delaying the thread from getting
useful work done. We should support this, but it's complicated to
figure out how to reasonably support this right now.
A wrinkle in this overall pleasant refactoring is that nsThreadPool's
threads wait for limited amounts of time for new events to be placed in
the event queue, so that they can shut themselves down if no new events
are appearing. Setting limits on the number of threads also needs to be
able to wake up all threads, so threads can shut themselves down if
necessary.
Unfortunately, with the transition to nsEventQueue managing its own
condition variable, there's no way for nsThreadPool to perform these
functions, since there's no Monitor to wait on. Therefore, we add a
private API for accessing the condition variable and performing the
tasks nsThreadPool needs.
Prior to all the previous patches, placing items in an nsThread's event
queue required three lock/unlock pairs: one for nsThread's Mutex, one to
enter nsEventQueue's ReentrantMonitor, and one to exit nsEventQueue's
ReentrantMonitor. The upshot of all this work is that we now only
require one lock/unlock pair in nsThread itself, as things should be.
Like the previous patch, this patch is a no-op change in terms of
functionality. It does, however, pave part of the way for forcing
clients of nsEventQueue to provide their own locking.
This patch is a no-op in terms of functionality. It ensures that we're
always holding nsThread's mutex when we touch mEvents, as dictated by
the comments. Putting this addition into its own patch will help make
the change to having nsEventQueue by guarded by a Mutex, rather than a
Monitor, somewhat clearer.
This is another case of an access to mEvents not being protected by
mLock. Future patches will make this locking requirement explicit in
nsChainedEventQueue, so we won't have problems like this. (Since
nsEventQueue has its own locking at this point, this omission didn't
matter much, but the omission will most certainly matter later.)
GetEvent was only called from one place, so it wasn't terribly useful as
an abstraction. It also broke the invariant that we protect accesses to
mEvents with mLock, as documented in nsThread.h. While upcoming patches
could have just updated GetEvent to do the necessary locking on its own,
it seemed just as easy to make the locking requirements at the callsite,
as will be done for other accesses to mEvents.
nsEventQueue's monitor does not require re-entrancy now that the monitor
is not externally visible. Since ReentrantMonitors require two separate
mutex lock/unlock pairs (one on entry, and one on exit), this cuts the
amount of locking nsEventQueue's methods do by half.
The breakpad dependency in ThreadStackHelper is preventing us from
upgrading our in-tree copy to a newer version (bug 1069556). This patch
gets rid of that dependency. This makes native stack frames not work
for BHR, but because of the ftp.m.o decommissioning, native
symbolication was already broken and naive stack frames already don't
work, so we don't really lose anything from this patch.
Eventually we want to make ThreadStackHelper use other means of
unwinding, such as LUL for Linux
I added | #if 0 | around the code to fill the thread context, but left
the code in because I think we'll evenually want to reuse some of that
code.
This makes the order of |aDelay| and |aType| match those of the InitWith*()
functions.
I've made this change because the inconsistency tripped me up during the
development of part 4.

nsEventQueue's HasPending event is defined to simply:
return GetEvent(false, nullptr);
So we can substitute HasPendingEvent for this particular GetEvent call
to make the code clearer.
We're already holding a reference to the Runner prior to dispatching it
to the thread pool; we can pass that reference in rather than requiring
the thread pool to take a new reference to it.
There's no reason to wake up all the threads in a thread pool when one
item gets placed in the queue. Waking up one will serve the same
purpose and is significantly more efficient for thread pools with large
numbers of threads.
There's no reason nsThreadPool needs to use a reentrant monitor for
locking its event queue. Having it use a non-reentrant one should be
slightly more efficient, both in the general operation of the monitor,
and that we're not performing redundant locking in methods like
nsThreadPool::Run. This change also eliminates the only usage of
nsEventQueue::GetReentrantMonitor.
Clients of nsEventQueue don't always need fully reentrant monitors.
Let's account for that by having a base class templated on the monitor
type. This change also opens up the possibility of having the monitor
for the event queue not owned by the event queue itself, but by the
client class, which makes a lot more sense than the current design.
The comment here suggests that we might AddRef/Release, but we really do
no such thing. Let's deal with the transfer of ownership directly,
rather than going through nsCOMPtr. This change makes the code slightly
smaller, and it also makes later refactorings to pull the lock out of
this function easier to do, since we don't have to consider how to hold
the lock within the lifetime of the nsCOMPtr temporary.
The patch removes 455 occurrences of FAIL_ON_WARNINGS from moz.build files, and
adds 78 instances of ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS. About half of those 78 are in
code we control and which should be removable with a little effort.

This is motivated by three separate but related problems:
1. Our concept of recursion depth is broken for things that run from AfterProcessNextEvent observers (e.g. Promises). We decrement the recursionDepth counter before firing observers, so a Promise callback running at the lowest event loop depth has a recursion depth of 0 (whereas a regular nsIRunnable would be 1). This is a problem because it's impossible to distinguish a Promise running after a sync XHR's onreadystatechange handler from a top-level event (since the former runs with depth 2 - 1 = 1, and the latter runs with just 1).
2. The nsIThreadObserver mechanism that is used by a lot of code to run "after" the current event is a poor fit for anything that runs script. First, the order the observers fire in is the order they were added, not anything fixed by spec. Additionally, running script can cause the event loop to spin, which is a big source of pain here (bholley has some nasty bug caused by this).
3. We run Promises from different points in the code for workers and main thread. The latter runs from XPConnect's nsIThreadObserver callbacks, while the former runs from a hardcoded call to run Promises in the worker event loop. What workers do is particularly problematic because it means we can't get the right recursion depth no matter what we do to nsThread.
The solve this, this patch does the following:
1. Consolidate some handling of microtasks and all handling of stable state from appshell and WorkerPrivate into CycleCollectedJSRuntime.
2. Make the recursionDepth counter only available to CycleCollectedJSRuntime (and its consumers) and remove it from the nsIThreadInternal and nsIThreadObserver APIs.
3. Adjust the recursionDepth counter so that microtasks run with the recursionDepth of the task they are associated with.
4. Introduce the concept of metastable state to replace appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent. Metastable state is reached after every microtask or task is completed. This provides the semantics that bent and I want for IndexedDB, where transactions autocommit at the end of a microtask and do not "spill" from one microtask into a subsequent microtask. This differs from appshell's RunBeforeNextEvent in two ways:
a) It fires between microtasks, which was the motivation for starting this.
b) It no longer ensures that we're at the same event loop depth in the native event queue. bent decided we don't care about this.
5. Reorder stable state to happen after microtasks such as Promises, per HTML. Right now we call the regular thread observers, including appshell, before the main thread observer (XPConnect), so stable state tasks happen before microtasks.

PostTimerEvent is only called by the timer thread, which is already able
to access private members of nsTimerImpl; there's no reason for
PostTimerEvent to be public.
GetTracedTask() is only called from nsTimerImpl itself, so it doesn't
need to be public. GetTLSTraceInfo() is called from the timer thread,
which has access to our private members already.

They are kept around for the sake of the standalone glue, which is used
for e.g. webapprt, which doesn't have direct access to jemalloc, and thus
still needs a wrapper to go through the xpcom function list and get to
jemalloc from there.
The current name reads to me like a boolean variable, even though it's
actually a counter. Try to make that property more explicit at its uses
by renaming it to something more evocative of counter-ness.

It's never called. We could replace a few do_CreateInstance/InitWithFuncCallback
pairs with NS_NewTimer, but I don't think it's worth doing that ahead of a "stop
using do_CreateInstance for all timer instances" effort.
The CALLBACK_TYPE enum doesn't need to be exposed outside of
nsTimerImpl, so move it inside the class definition. While we're doing
this, let's C++-ify the enum definition and give the members
non-shouting names.
We have better, C++-ier ways of doing compile-time assertions now. Fold in the
nsTSubstring.cpp change in passing, since mccr8 suggested it in his review.

When we're inside the hang monitor's signal handler, we must not read any string labels. Doing so may result in on-demand decompression kicking in on Android, which may result in a deadlock.
