commit 8ea9839478bfddd4f078f16c9268edf1755e9cb0 Author: Richard Pospesel <richard@torproject.org> Date: Wed Nov 15 10:48:38 2017 -0800 Bug 23016: "Print to File" does not create the expected file in non-English locales The Problem: During firefox and Web Content process startup, ::OverrideDefaultLocaleIfNeeded() is called which will conditionally ::setlocale() to "C.UTF-8" or "C" based off of the javascript.use_us_english_locale preference (to prevent fingerprinting based on how dates and what-not are formatted). Sometime after this call in the Web Content process the locale is set to the system's locale which effectively stomps over the work done by the ::OverrideDefaultLocaleIfNeeded() call. As a result, the firefox process and the Web Content process are configured to use different locales; firefox uses "C.UTF-8" while Web Content uses "" (system default). On Linux, the "Print to File" printer is a default GTK printer whose name is localized based off of the process's locale. The GTK print dialog is hosted in the firefox process and therefore the printer name will be 'Print to File.' This process sends this name over to the Web Content process, which iterates over the list of printers and finds one whose name matches. However, as the Web Content process's locale is set to system, its printer names will be localized and in the language of the system, so no printer with the name 'Print to File' will be found, and printing fails. This is why disabling javascript.use_us_english_locale fixes the issue. It also explains why disabling multi-process mode via the browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 preference fixes the issue; one process means the printer-name is never used as a selector and also means no mismatched locale can happen. The Solution: The fix for this issue is to first check the javascript.use_us_english_locale preference each place in code where setlocale occurs, particularly in the nsLocaleService object which is the particular code path which overrides setlocale in the Web Content process. --- intl/locale/nsLocaleService.cpp | 72 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ xpcom/build/XPCOMInit.cpp | 14 ++++++-- xpcom/io/nsNativeCharsetUtils.cpp | 14 ++++++-- 3 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff --git a/intl/locale/nsLocaleService.cpp b/intl/locale/nsLocaleService.cpp index 6d45ec9afa2a..e89ff32346cd 100644 --- a/intl/locale/nsLocaleService.cpp +++ b/intl/locale/nsLocaleService.cpp @@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ #include "nsTArray.h" #include "nsString.h" #include "mozilla/UniquePtr.h" +#include "mozilla/Preferences.h" #include <ctype.h> @@ -93,12 +94,20 @@ protected: // nsLocaleService::nsLocaleService(void) { + // conditionally use us english locale when initialization locale objects + const auto use_us_english_locale = + mozilla::Preferences::GetBool("javascript.use_us_english_locale", false); + #ifdef XP_WIN nsAutoString xpLocale; + // 1033 is default english us locale LCID + // https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms912047(v=winembedded.10).aspx + const LCID en_US_lcid = 1033; + // // get the system LCID // - LCID win_lcid = GetSystemDefaultLCID(); + LCID win_lcid = use_us_english_locale ? en_US_lcid : GetSystemDefaultLCID(); NS_ENSURE_TRUE_VOID(win_lcid); nsWin32Locale::GetXPLocale(win_lcid, xpLocale); nsresult rv = NewLocale(xpLocale, getter_AddRefs(mSystemLocale)); @@ -107,7 +116,7 @@ nsLocaleService::nsLocaleService(void) // // get the application LCID // - win_lcid = GetUserDefaultLCID(); + win_lcid = use_us_english_locale ? en_US_lcid : GetUserDefaultLCID(); NS_ENSURE_TRUE_VOID(win_lcid); nsWin32Locale::GetXPLocale(win_lcid, xpLocale); rv = NewLocale(xpLocale, getter_AddRefs(mApplicationLocale)); @@ -118,7 +127,7 @@ nsLocaleService::nsLocaleService(void) NS_ENSURE_TRUE_VOID(resultLocale); // Get system configuration - const char* lang = getenv("LANG"); + const char* lang = use_us_english_locale ?
