Now that the chrome process is a singleton on all platforms, we can
safely add a cache to the CookieJar to greatly speed up access. The way
this works is we read all cookies upfront from the database. As cookies
are updated by the web, we store a list of "dirty" cookies that need to
be flushed to the database. We do that synchronization every 30 seconds
and at shutdown.
There's plenty of room for improvement here, some of which is marked
with FIXMEs in the CookieJar.
Before these changes, in a SQL database populated with 300 cookies,
browsing to https://twinings.co.uk/ WebContent spent:
19,806ms waiting for a get-cookie response
505ms waiting for a set-cookie response
With these changes, it spends:
24ms waiting for a get-cookie response
15ms waiting for a set-cookie response
This allows main UI processes created while there is a currently
running one to request a new tab or a new window with the initial urls
provided on the command line. This matches (almost) the behavior of
Chromium and Firefox.
Add a new IPC protocol between two UI processes. The main UI process
will create an IPC server socket, while secondary UI processes will
connect to that socket and send over the URLs and action it wants the
main process to take.
It previously resided in LibWebView to hide the details of launching a
singleton process. That functionality now lives in LibCore. By moving
this to Ladybird, we will be able to register the process with the task
manager.
This just moves the code to launch a single process such as SQLServer to
LibCore. This will allow re-using this feature for other processes, and
will allow moving the launching of SQLServer to Ladybird.
This will be needed to collect statistics from processes that do not
have anything to do with LibWebView. The ProcessInfo structure must be
virtual to allow callers to add application-specific information.
When WebDriver accesses cookies, it specifically says to run:
the first step of the algorithm in RFC6265 to compute cookie-string
So we should skip subsequent steps. We already skip step 2, which sorts
the cookies, but neglected to skip step 3 to update their last access
time.
Add factory functions to distinguish between when the owner of the File
wants to transfer ownership to the new IPC object (adopt) or to send a
copy of the same fd to the IPC peer (clone).
This behavior is more intuitive than the previous behavior. Previously,
an IPC::File would default to a shallow clone of the file descriptor,
only *actually* calling dup(2) for the fd when encoding or it into an
IPC MessageBuffer. Now the dup(2) for the fd is explicit in the clone_fd
factory function.
The previous name was extremely misleading, because the call is used for
pushing or replacing new session history entry on chrome side instead of
only changing URL.
It is going to be used to communicate whether it is possible to navigate
back or forward after session history stored on browser side will no
longer be used to driver navigation.
On macOS, it's not trivial to get a Mach task port for your children.
This implementation registers the chrome process as a well-known
service with launchd based on its pid, and lets each child process
send over a reference to its mach_task_self() back to the chrome.
We'll need this Mach task port right to get process statistics.
Currently the `<select>` dropdown IPC uses the option value attr to
find which option is selected. This won't work when options don't
have values or when multiple options have the same value. Also the
`SelectItem` contained so weird recursive structures that are
impossible to create with HTML. So I refactored `SelectItem` as a
variant, and gave the options a unique id. The id is send back to
`HTMLSelectElement` so it can find out exactly which option element
is selected.
After some uptime the total_time_scheduled can get too big for accurate
float subtraction.
It's better to do the subtraction in u64 and use float only for the
division later on.
On Serenity, it's not trivial to extract the peer pid from a socket that
is created by SystemServer and then passed to a forked service process.
This patch adds an API to let the WebContent process notify the UI
directly, which makes the WebContent process show up in the Serenity
port's TaskManagerWidget. It seems that we will need to do something of
this sort in order to properly gather metrics on macOS as well, due to
the way that self mach ports work.
This implementation uses a really basic WebView to update stats once
a second. In the future it might make more sense to both move the
details into LibWebView, and to create a native widget for each platform
to remove the overhead of having an extra WebView.
This adds an IPC for chromes to mute a tab. When muted, we trigger an
internal volume change notification and indicate that the user agent has
overriden the media volume.
For example, if a page has multiple audio elements all actively playing
audio, we don't want to broadcast a play state change when only one of
them stop playing.
Let's not re-invoke the "page did start loading" IPC when the history
state is pushed/replaced. It's a bit misleading (the change does not
actually load the new URL), but also the chromes may do more work than
we want when we change the URL.
Instead, add a new IPC for the history object to invoke.
Most browsers have some indicator when audio is playing in a tab, which
makes it easier to find that tab and mute unwanted audio. This adds an
IPC to allow the Ladybird chromes to do something similar.
This URL library ends up being a relatively fundamental base library of
the system, as LibCore depends on LibURL.
This change has two main benefits:
* Moving AK back more towards being an agnostic library that can
be used between the kernel and userspace. URL has never really fit
that description - and is not used in the kernel.
* URL _should_ depend on LibUnicode, as it needs punnycode support.
However, it's not really possible to do this inside of AK as it can't
depend on any external library. This change brings us a little closer
to being able to do that, but unfortunately we aren't there quite
yet, as the code generators depend on LibCore.
Note no test here, because this early return involves HTTP-only cookies,
which we don't have the infrastructure to test (we would need to support
custom HTTP headers in tests).
Now that all input events are handled by LibWebView, replace the IPCs
which send the fields of Web::KeyEvent / Web::MouseEvent individually
with one IPC per event type (key or mouse).
We can also replace the ad-hoc queued input structure with a smaller
struct that simply holds the tranferred Web::KeyEvent / Web::MouseEvent.
In the future, we can also adapt Web::EventHandler to use these structs.
The Serenity chrome is the only chrome thus far that sends all input key
and mouse events to WebContent, including shortcut activations. This is
necessary for all chromes - we must give web pages a chance to intercept
input events before handling them ourselves.
To make this easier for other chromes, this patch moves Serenity's input
event handling to LibWebView. To do so, we add the Web::InputEvent type,
which models the event data we need within LibWeb. Chromes will then be
responsible for converting between this type and their native events.
This class lives in LibWeb (rather than LibWebView) because the plan is
to use it wholesale throughout the Page's event handler and across IPC.
Right now, we still send the individual fields of the event over IPC,
but it will be an easy refactor to send the event itself. We just can't
do this until all chromes have been ported to this event queueing.
Also note that we now only handle key input events back in the chrome.
WebContent handles all mouse events that it possibly can. If it was not
able to handle a mouse event, there's nothing for the chrome to do (i.e.
there is no clicking, scrolling, etc. the chrome is able to do if the
WebContent couldn't).
