Nothing in mozilla-central uses the NS_APP_BOOKMARKS_50_FILE/BMarks key except
tests. It's also not been very useful since the switch to places in ... Firefox
3? so even if addons use it, it's not doing them much good.
BookmarkHTMLUtils.defaultPath returns the same thing anyways for those that
really do insist on getting the equivalent thing (but I'd argue
BookmarkHTMLUtils.defaultPath, as well as the browser.bookmarks.file pref could
just go away as well).
Seamonkey does use NS_APP_BOOKMARKS_50_FILE/BMarks, but they really only need
the #define, which they can add in their source.
Nothing apart the code that was just removed uses those keys, so remove them.
Actually, there is a use in Seamonkey, but considering they're shipping with
omnijar, the code expecting the directory has not been working as designed for
a while, so they can fixup and remove that use as well.
On win32, NS_InvokeByIndex is implemented with inline assembly. This
inline assembly assumes that it is wrapped by the compiler with the
standard x86 prologue and epilogue:
push ebp
mov ebp, esp
[inline assembly that manipulates the stack pointer]
pop ebp
ret
In particular, the last instruction of the inline assembly is:
mov esp, ebp
which cancels out the effects of the stack manipulation performed by all
the inline assembly that proceeds the instruction.
When compiling with clang-cl, however, the above assumption does not
hold, as clang-cl inserts a more complex prologue and epilogue,
something like:
push ebp
mov ebp, esp
sub esp, frame_size
[save registers into stack frame]
[inline assembly that manipulates the stack pointer]
[restore registers from stack frame]
add esp, frame_size
mov esp, ebp
pop ebp
ret
Combining this more extensive prologue and epilogue with the assumptions
of the inline assembly leads to interesting crashes when
NS_InvokeByIndex is called: the inline assembly effectively deallocates
the stack allocated by the inline assembly *and* the stack frame
allocated by the compiler itself. The compiler-generated code then
attemptes to deallocate the stack frame, leading to the crash, as the
code now returns to an unspecified address.
To avoid these sorts of problems in clang-cl and make the code more
robust generally, let's move the NS_InvokeByIndex implementation to a
separate assembly file. We can then write exactly what we need to have
happen, safe from any manipulations of the compiler.
Since we don't compile much (any?) code in Gecko with MASM, we need to
add the /SAFESEH flag to the assembler invocation so that the object
file with be appropriately marked as not containing exception handlers;
the linker (which is invoked with the /SAFESEH flag itself) will then
consent to link it into libxul.
A bunch of threads have their wait time set to PR_INTERVAL_NO_TIMEOUT and so
we divide this by 4 and set waitTime to that. This causes us to wait a very
long but not PR_INTERVAL_NO_TIMEOUT amount of time and so we still update
mIntervalNow and think that we've been hung for a long time when comparing
to the mInterval in the current thread which is set to the previous value of
mIntervalNow.
