assertion failure in clear_target: DEPTH_WRITEMASK is 0

[staktrace]

Filing for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1432819, seems to be an intermittent failure in mozilla-central CI. The panic is coming from this line - apparently both arguments are 0 so the debug_assert_ne is failing.

Good, means we have a logic bug and now my new checks panic on it. Hope it's not too annoying for Gecko. I'll look into it.

Hmm, scanning the code it seems pretty solid on enforcing the invariants about depth clearing. Could we get a more detailed @staktrace (no pun!)?

[staktrace]

The log pointed to in the bug has a stacktrace which isn't properly symbolicated. I pulled the xul.sym file for the build (it's in the target.crashreporter-symbols-full.zip artifact that's uploaded for the build job corresponding to the test job that failed) and did some symbolication-by-hand for the addresses. I got the xul.dll base address from the c6b19016-5e9e-4177-8bee-9530b869c841.extra artifact on the test job itself. Below is the stacktrace with the frames I symbolicated. I doubt it's very useful though:

I filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1432886 to make the symbolication better by default.

Edited to fill in a couple of the mozilla_dump_image frames as well, those aren't really in mozilla_dump_image.

Thanks!

The fact it's an intermittent is worrying though. The assertion is pretty deterministic.
Might be a sign of a memory corruption affecting either WR or the driver.

Apparently it was on a broken machine, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1432819#c2
