Ensure that the first line of the log for failing tests is identical to
one that would be produced by the tbplformatter from mozlog. This means
that treeherder will be able to sucessfully cross-match error lines.
Also make the data structures used for storing screenshots identical
between reftests and web-platform-tests so that we can start to move
toward removing the reftest-specific codepath here.

This fixes a regression from bug 1288827. It happened because I moved the logic that finds
the application path a little later on in the test harness. But there was an instance where
it was being used in the android mach command before that point.
As it turned out, we don't really *need* that value there. This patch grabs the same value
from build_obj.substs which is already an argument to the function.

This removes the unnecessary setting of c-basic-offset from all
python-mode files.
This was automatically generated using
perl -pi -e 's/; *c-basic-offset: *[0-9]+//'
... on the affected files.
The bulk of these files are moz.build files but there a few others as
well.

This adds reftest support to the test package mach environment. It will allow
developers to easily run reftests after checking out an interactive worker.

The idea of mozlog ids being tuples unfortunately didn't work so well
with external systems that found the tuple|string datatype difficult to
work with. Convert reftests to use simple ids of the form "<test url>
<comparison> <refurl>" e.g. "about:blank == data:text/html," instead of
tuples.

In bug 1271035 gps identified disk I/O as a major cause for reftest slowness.
He was able to fix most of it, but the new highest source of I/O in reftest is
reftest.log.
To note, we were only saving reftest.log when running via mach, so this won't
impact automation in any way:
https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/043082cb7bd8/layout/tools/reftest/mach_commands.py#l204
I don't know why we are doing this given that the same output goes to stdout.
And as dholbert pointed out, since bug 1034290 landed, that log contains raw
structured logs, which are not at all useful for debugging. Given that it is
no longer useful and causes slowness, we should stop saving it.
If anyone wishes to keep saving to a log, they can use:
./mach reftest --log-tbpl reftest.log
If they wish this to be the default behaviour they can make a machrc (or
.machrc) in either topsrcdir, ~/.mozbuild or $MACHRC. Then add:
[alias]
reftest = reftest --log-tbpl reftest.log

It was a cold Friday night in San Francisco. Earlier in the day, I
informed Chris AtLee that I was going to start focusing on improving
the efficiency of Firefox automation and asked him where the biggest
capacity issues were. He said "we're hurting most on Windows tests."
As I was casually drinking a barleywine (note to reader: barleywines
are serious beers - there's nothing casual about them), I found myself
tediously clicking through Treeherder looking at logs for Windows jobs,
looking for patterns and other oddities. As I was clicking through,
something stood out to me: the sheer number of reftest jobs. I
recalled a random project I started a few years ago. Its aim was to
analyze buildbot job metadata so we could better understand where time
was spent in automation. I had mostly written off the side project as
a failure and a near complete waste of my time. Not even a stray
random thought of this project had entered my mind in the past year.
But clicking through Treeherder after a few glasses of barleywine
somehow reminded me of one of the few useful findings of that project:
reftest jobs consumed a seemingly disproportiate amount of machine time,
something like 35 or 40% IIRC of the time spent on all jobs.
Now, this finding was several years ago and almost certainly no longer
relevant. But, again, I had a few glasses of barleywine in me and was
bothered by the amount of reftest jobs and their duration, so I thought
"hey, why don't I run reftests and see why they take so long." So I
built Firefox on Windows - the platform Chris AtLee said we're "hurting
most on."
I decided to start my very casual profiling session by recording a
`mach reftest` run using Sysinternals Process Monitor. To my surprise,
it yielded a very obvious and unexpected result: the Places SQLite
database was incurring a lot of I/O. On my i7-6700K Windows 10 desktop
with a high performance SSD, `mach reftest` yielded the following:
File Time #Events #Reads #Writes RBytes WBytes Path
198s 980,872 243,270 669,231 7,971,471,360 20,667,084,080 places.sqlite-wal
165s 645,853 222,407 367,775 7,287,701,820 14.071,529,472 places.sqlite
2s 377,121 1 0 32,768 0 places.sqlite-shm
The Places SQLite database accounts for 2,003,846 of the total of
3,547,527 system calls (56.49%) recorded by procmon during `mach
reftest` execution. This represents a staggering 49,997,786,732 of the
50,307,660,589 (99.38%) bytes of I/O recorded! Yes, that's 50 GB.
I reckon the reason the Places database accumulates so much I/O load
during reftests is because the reftest suite essentially loads thousands
of pages as quickly as possible. This effectively performs a stress
test against the Places history recording service.
As effective as reftests are at stress-testing Places, it adds no value
to reftests because reftests are testing the layout features, not the
performance of history recording. So these 2M system calls and 50 GB
of I/O are overhead.
This commit disables Places when executing reftests and prevents
the overhead.
After this commit, `mach reftest` has significantly reduced interaction
with the Places SQLite database:
File Time #Events #Reads #Writes RBytes WBytes Path
0.09s 502 138 302 4,521,984 8,961,528 places.sqlite-wal
0.07s 254 20 140 524,604 8,126,464 places.sqlite
0.01s 3,289 1 0 32,768 0 places.sqlite-shm
Of the 948,033 system calls recorded with this change (26.7% of
original), 691,322 were related to I/O. The Places SQLite database
only consumed ~22MB of I/O, <0.01% of original. It's worth noting that
~half of the remaining I/O system calls are related to reftest.log,
which now accounts for the largest percentage of write I/O (only
~53 MB, however). It's worth noting that reftest.log appears to be
using unbuffered writes and is requiring an excessive amount of
system calls for writing. But that's for another bug and commit.
In terms of wall time, the drastic I/O reduction during `mach reftest`
appears to have minimal impact on my machine: maybe 30s shaved from a
~900s execution, or ~3%. But my machine with its modern SSD doesn't
struggle with I/O.
In automation, it is a different story.
I pushed this change to Try along with the base revision and triggered
4 runs of most reftest jobs. The runtime improvements in automation
are impressive. Here are the fastest reported times for various jobs:

The savings total 6+ *hours* or ~15% when running all reftests. I'd
say this isn't bad for a one-line code change!

As of bug 1245092, reftest depends on marionette. Normally marionette client has an internal timeout of around
60 seconds where it waits for the server to become available. But when using debuggers (and especially valgrind),
it can take much much longer than a minute for Firefox to start. This patch adds a couple hidden command line
args to reftest to tweak the marionette timeouts.

This extra window was initially left open because closing it was causing memory leaks
on debug e10s crashtests. There was pressure to get the regressing patch landed due
to addon signing, so it got landed with this extra window hanging around (as it didn't
impact test results).
But it is a UX wart for several reasons. Upon testing it again recently, the leaks all
seem to have vanished. I'm not sure why, possibly it was a bug fixed in e10s.

This is a internal-only syntax for guarding rules from a boolean
preference. Nothing causes @supports rules to be re-evaluated except
html.css registered in Part 2.
This is needed for rendering the disclosure triangle of the
summary element by using "display: list-item".
Usage example:
@supports -moz-bool-pref("dom.details_element.enabled") {
/* css rules */
}
