The display list is an immutable data structure, so once it's created,
rasterization can be moved to a separate thread. This allows more room
for performing other tasks between processing HTML rendering tasks.
This change makes PaintingSurface, ImmutableBitmap, and GlyphRun atomic
ref-counted, as they are shared between the main and rendering threads
by being included in the display list.
When we build internal pages (e.g. about:settings), there is currently
quite a lot of boilerplate needed to communicate between the browser and
the page. This includes creating IDL for the page and the IPC for every
message sent between the processes.
These internal pages are also special in that they have privileged
access to and control over the browser process.
The framework introduced here serves to ease the setup of new internal
pages and to reduce the access that WebContent processes have to the
browser process. WebUI pages can send requests to the browser process
via a `ladybird.sendMessage` API. Responses from the browser are passed
through a WebUIMessage event. So, for example, an internal page may:
ladybird.sendMessage("getDataFor", { id: 123 });
document.addEventListener("WebUIMessage", event => {
if (event.name === "gotData") {
console.assert(event.data.id === 123);
}
});
To handle these messages, we set up a new IPC connection between the
browser and WebContent processes. This connection is torn down when
the user navigates away from the internal page.
This adds a basic settings page to manage persistent Ladybird settings.
As a first pass, this exposes settings for the new tab page URL and the
default search engine.
The way the search engine option works is that once search is enabled,
the user must choose their default search engine; we do not apply any
default automatically. Search remains disabled until this is done.
There are a couple of improvements that we should make here:
* Settings changes are not broadcasted to all open about:settings pages.
So if two instances are open, and the user changes the search engine
in one instance, the other instance will have a stale UI.
* Adding an IPC per setting is going to get annoying. It would be nice
if we can come up with a smaller set of IPCs to send only the relevant
changed settings.
The intent is that this will replace the separate Task Manager window.
This will allow us to more easily add features such as actual process
management, better rendering of the process table, etc. Included in this
page is the ability to sort table rows.
This also lays the ground work for more internal `about` pages, such as
about:config.
Site isolation is a common technique to reduce the chance that malicious
sites can access data from other sites. When the user navigates, we now
check if the target site is the same as the current site. If not, we
instruct the UI to perform the navigation in a new WebContent process.
The phrase "site" here is defined as the public suffix of the URL plus
one level. This means that navigating from "www.example.com" to
"sub.example.com" remains in the same process.
There's plenty of room for optimization around this. For example, we can
create a spare WebContent process ahead of time to hot-swap the target
site. We can also create a policy to keep the navigated-from process
around, in case the user quickly navigates back.
This removes a couple of places where we were constructing strings or
vectors just to transfer data over IPC. And passes some values by const&
to remove clangd noise.
We set the page's focused navigable upon mouse-down events from the UI.
However, we neglected to ever clear that focused navigable upon events
such as subsequent page navigations. This left the page with a stale
reference to a no-longer-active navigable. The effect was that any key
events from the UI would not be sent to the new page until either the
reference was collected by GC, or another mouse-down event occurred.
In the test added here, without this fix, the text sent to the input
element would not be received, and the change event would not fire.
The `cursor` property accepts a list of possible cursors, which behave
as a fallback: We use whichever cursor is the first available one. This
is a little complicated because initially, any remote images have not
loaded, so we need to use the fallback standard cursor, and then switch
to another when it loads.
So, ComputedValues stores a Vector of cursors, and then in EventHandler
we scan down that list until we find a cursor that's ready for use.
The spec defines cursors as being `<url>`, but allows for `<image>`
instead. That includes functions like `linear-gradient()`.
This commit implements image cursors in the Qt UI, but not AppKit.
Our existing coalescing mechanism for input events didn't prevent
multiple mousemove/mousewheel events from being processed between paint
cycles. Since handling these events can trigger style & layout updates
solely for hit-testing purposes, we might end up doing work that won't
be observable by a user and could be avoided by shceduling input events
processing to happen right before painting the next frame.
Some tests take longer than others, and so may want to set a custom
timeout so that they pass, without increasing the timeout for all other
tests. For example, this is done in WPT.
Add an `internals.setTestTimeout(milliseconds)` method that overrides
the test runner's default timeout for the currently-run test.
Before, on a mouse-move event, if the hovered html element did not have
a tooltip or it was not a link, `page_did_leave_tooltip_area()` and
`page_did_unhover_link()` virtual functions would get called.
Now, the page remembers if it is in a tooltip area or hovering a link
and only informs of leaving or unhovering only if it was.
Before, on *every* mouse-move event, `page_did_request_cursor_change()`
virtual function would get called, requesting to change cursor to the
event's mouse position's cursor.
Now, the page keeps track of the last cursor change that was requested
("page's current cursor") and only requests cursor change again if and
only if the current cursor is not already the one that is required.
Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
This isn't entirely symmetrical with on_load_start as it will also fire
on reloads and back/forward navigations. However, it's good enough for
some basic use cases, and we can do more sophisticated notifications
later on when we need them.
This patch makes Page weakable and allows page-less frames to exist.
Page is single-owner, and Frame is multiple-owner, so it's not sound
for Frame to assume its containing Page will stick around for its own
entire lifetime.
Fixes#3976.
When the user right-clicks on an image, you might want to show a
special context menu, separate from the regular link context menu.
This patch only implements enough of the functionality to get this
working in a single-process context.
This works everywhere right now, but it's obviously not going to stay
that way forever. :^)
Note that this does not advance the cursor correctly for whitespace
since the cursor is DOM-based and doesn't take whitespace collapsing
into account yet.
