Currently the Gecko Profiler defines a moderate amount of stuff when
MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER is undefined. It also #includes various headers, including
JS ones. This is making it difficult to separate Gecko's media stack for
inclusion in Servo.
This patch greatly simplifies how things are exposed. The starting point is:
- GeckoProfiler.h can be #included unconditionally;
- everything else from the profiler must be guarded by MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER.
In practice this introduces way too many #ifdefs, so the patch loosens it by
adding no-op macros for a number of the most common operations.
The net result is that #ifdefs and macros are used a bit more, but almost
nothing is exposed in non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds (including
ProfilerMarkerPayload.h and GeckoProfiler.h), and understanding what is exposed
is much simpler than before.
Note also that in BHR, ThreadStackHelper is now entirely absent in
non-MOZ_GECKO_PROFILER builds.
This patch makes the following changes to the macros.
- Removes PROFILER_LABEL_FUNC. It's only suitable for use in functions outside
classes, due to PROFILER_FUNCTION_NAME not getting class names, and it was
mostly misused.
- Removes PROFILER_FUNCTION_NAME. It's no longer used, and __func__ is
universally available now anyway.
- Combines the first two string literal arguments of PROFILER_LABEL and
PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC into a single argument. There was no good reason for
them to be separate, and it forced a '::' in the label, which isn't always
appropriate. Also, the meaning of the "name_space" argument was interpreted
in an interesting variety of ways.
- Adds an "AUTO_" prefix to PROFILER_LABEL and PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC, to make
it clearer they construct RAII objects rather than just being function calls.
(I myself have screwed up the scoping because of this in the past.)
- Fills in the 'js::ProfileEntry::Category::' qualifier within the macro, so
the caller doesn't need to. This makes a *lot* more of the uses fit onto a
single line.
The patch also makes the following changes to the macro uses (beyond those
required by the changes described above).
- Fixes a bunch of labels that had gotten out of sync with the name of the
class and/or function that encloses them.
- Removes a useless PROFILER_LABEL use within a trivial scope in
EventStateManager::DispatchMouseOrPointerEvent(). It clearly wasn't serving
any useful purpose. It also serves as extra evidence that the AUTO_ prefix is
a good idea.
- Tweaks DecodePool::SyncRunIf{Preferred,Possible} so that the labelling is
done within them, instead of at their callsites, because that's a more
standard way of doing things.

This patch gives some structure and order to the profiler's API.
It also renames AutoProfilerRegister as AutoProfilerRegisterThread, to match
profiler_register_thread().
This removes the last uses of PR_smprintf from the tree (excluding the
security and nsprpub directories). It also fixes a related latent bug
in nsAppRunner.cpp (which was incorrectly freeing the pointer passed to
PR_SetEnv).

NS_SetCurrentThreadName() is added as an alternative to PR_SetCurrentThreadName()
inside libxul. The thread names are collected in the form of crash annotation to
be processed on socorro.

As far as I can tell, this covers all the remaining threads which we start
using PR_CreateThread, except the ones that are created inside NSPR or NSS,
and except for the Shutdown Watchdog thread in nsTerminator.cpp and the
CacheIO thread. The Shutdown Watchdog thread stays alive past leak detection
during shutdown (by design), so we'd report leaks if we profiled it. The
CacheIO thread seems to stay alive past shutdown leak detection sometimes as
well.
This adds a AutoProfilerRegister stack class for easy registering and
unregistering. There are a few places where we still call
profiler_register_thread() and profiler_unregister_thread() manually, either
because registration happens conditionally, or because there is a variable that
gets put on the stack before the AutoProfilerRegister (e.g. a dynamically
generated thread name). AutoProfilerRegister needs to be the first object on
the stack because it uses its own `this` pointer as the stack top address.

This patch removes checking of all the callback calls in memory reporter
CollectReport() functions, because it's not useful.
The patch also does some associated clean-up.
- Replaces some uses of nsIMemoryReporterCallback with the preferred
nsIHandleReportCallback typedef.
- Replaces aCallback/aCb/aClosure with aHandleRepor/aData for CollectReports()
parameter names, for consistency.
- Adds MOZ_MUST_USE/[must_use] in a few places in nsIMemoryReporter.idl.
- Uses the MOZ_COLLECT_REPORT macro in all suitable places.
Overall the patch reduces code size by ~300 lines and reduces the size of
libxul by about 37 KiB on my Linux64 builds.

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.

The lone remaining startup cache-related uses of nsAutoArrayPtr are both
in TestStartupCache.cpp, for use with nsIStartupCache::GetBuffer. The
uses can't use StartupCache::GetBuffer because StartupCache::GetBuffer
isn't visible outside of libxul, and TestStartupCache is a normal C++
unit test.
The Right Thing is to convert TestStartupCache to a gtest so we can see
libxul internal symbols and then delete nsIStartupCache entirely.
That's a bit complicated, as TestStartupCache doesn't fit nicely into
gtest's framework. The simpler solution is to add a UniquePtr overload
in the interface that hides the XPCOM outparam management details.
Similar to the previous change to NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer, we
want to make the ownership transfer out of NewBufferFromStorageStream
more obvious. Doing this also lets us get rid of some uses of
nsAutoArrayPtr, which is less idiomatic than UniquePtr.
Because NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer takes a raw pointer as input, the
typical coding pattern to use it is:
nsAutoArrayPtr<char> buf;
// assign something to buf
nsresult rv = NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer(buf, ...);
if (NS_FAILED(rv)) {
...
return rv;
}
buf.forget();
Which is clumsy, error-prone, and obscures the ownership transfer of the
pointer into the stream returned by NewObjectInputStreamFromBuffer.
Let's address all of these concerns by changing the argument to a
UniquePtr<char[]>.
TestWriteObject() in TestStartupCache.cpp uses this odd pattern of
acquiring a raw pointer from the startup cache, and then stashing that
raw pointer into an nsAutoArrayPtr. We can do better by using the
getter_Transfers idiom and thereby always using the smart pointer.
