Firefox OS Radio/Bluetooth/GPS (kenhkchang)

Firefox OS Systems - Front End (gwagner)

Firefox OS Systems - Platform (timdream)

GFX (milan)

  • Actively fixing remaining async pan-zoom issues (Vivien helping a lot here, fixing Gecko bugs as well, thanks!)
  • Investigating the performance regressions without tiling on Windows OMTC - we may not have a practical way out
  • Implementing the hardware fence support on trunk (the original implementation was Gecko 28/Firefox OS 1.3 specific)
  • Implementing will-change property
  • Cut the rope regression fixed
  • Ongoing Moz2D conversion work - getting help from Telenor/Comoyo
  • Flash regression with text fixed, will ask for uplift approval
  • Old DDB optimizations (Windows) were not - removing them

Identity (jedp)

JS (naveed)

Layout (jet/dbaron)

Media (mreavy)

<Read Only>

  • TURN TCP is being selected when it shouldn't be (randomly). This can hurt call delay. We're actively working to fix this ASAP. Note: TURN TCP is only in 28 & 29
    • Fixed bug 960296 which caused video to freeze and not recover when using TURN TCP. We're nominating it for uplift to Aurora (28)
  • Landed support for about:webrtc and ICE debugging panel there; more stats coming
  • WebRTC (audio-only) will be in B2G 1.3. Currently running emulator mochitests by hand once a day until a bug in the framework for the emulator is fixed.
  • About to land update of libyuv and will be moving it to media/libyuv to enable non-webrtc use (bug 880419 and bug 813645)

Necko (dougt/jduell)

  • no update this week.

Performance (vladan)

<Read Only>

Seceng (mmc)

No updates.

Shumway (mbx)

http://benjamin.smedbergs.us/weekly-updates.fcgi/project/Shumway

<Read Only>

WebAPI (overholt)

  • No updates

Quality Programs

(An opportunity to hear about status with the various quality programs that do not have a formal team structure.)

CritSmash (dbolter)

MemShrink (njn)

  • Nathan Froyd reduced the size of 32-bit libxul by ~220KB by packing JSJitInfo structs more carefully. This is the latest in a number of recent optimizations he's done to static code and data size, which are welcome because that's an area that doesn't get much attention.

OrangeFactor (ryanvm)

  • Past week's OrangeFactor: 8.32 (Previous Week: 11.12).
    • Metro mochitest shutdown timeouts still #1 non-infra issue, progress being made finding cause.
  • Concerns over general slowdown of mochitest-bc test suite. Many recent intermittents have been "fixed" by increasing the timeout for the test, but root problem appears to be tests that normally run in short intervals randomly taking much longer (2-3x, if not more). Some sort of bad GC behavior?
    • Linux debug mochitest-bc now takes 140-150 min to run, similar for OSX 10.6 debug. Debug takes 100+ minutes on all platforms.
    • Filed bug 962156 for investigating.
  • 19 intermittent failures fixed in the last week - List - Thanks!.

Stability (kairo/bsmedberg)

Roundtable

(Comments and questions that arise during the course of the meeting or otherwise do not have a section.)

<Read only beyond this point>

Friends of the Tree

There were great changes by volunteers in Core and Toolkit during the past week. Thanks to all of these contributors for their passion and hard work, and say hi to new contributors kcarchana77, and Art Rothstein! Here are some highlights:

Mailing List Threads

(Threads that are likely to be of interest to engineering from various mailing lists.)

Good Reads

(Links to blog posts, books, videos, etc. that you think will be of interest to others.)
