Supporting unbuffered fetches is actually part of the fetch spec in its
HTTP-network-fetch algorithm. We had previously implemented this method
in a very ad-hoc manner as a simple wrapper around ResourceLoader. This
is still the case, but we now implement a good amount of these steps
according to spec, using ResourceLoader's unbuffered API. The response
data is forwarded through to the fetch response using streams.
This will eventually let us remove the use of ResourceLoader's buffered
API, as all responses should just be streamed this way. The streams spec
then supplies ways to wait for completion, thus allowing fully buffered
responses. However, we have more work to do to make the other parts of
our fetch implementation (namely, Body::fully_read) use streams before
we can do this.
The only subclass was already GC-allocated, so let's hoist the JS::Cell
inheritance up one level. This ends up simplifying a bit of rather
dubious looking code where we were previously slicing ESOs.
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.
We previously used an empty optional to denote that a ReferrerPolicy is
in the default empty string state. However, later additions added an
explicit EmptyString state. This patch moves all users to the explicit
state, and stops using `Optional<ReferrerPolicy>` everywhere except for
when an option not being passed from JavaScript has meaning.
Along with putting functions in the URL namespace into a DOMURL
namespace.
This is done as LibWeb is in an awkward situation where it needs
two URL classes. AK::URL is the general purpose URL class which
is all that is needed in 95% of cases. URL in the Web namespace
is needed predominantly for interfacing with the javascript
interfaces.
Because of two URLs in the same namespace, AK::URL has had to be
used throughout LibWeb. If we move AK::URL into a URL namespace,
this becomes more painful - where ::URL::URL is required to
specify the constructor (and something like
::URL::create_with_url_or_path in other places).
To fix this problem - rename the class in LibWeb implementing the
URL IDL interface to DOMURL, along with moving the other Web URL
related classes into this DOMURL folder.
One could argue that this name also makes the situation a little
more clear in LibWeb for why these two URL classes need be used
in the first place.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;

$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
With this change, we now have ~1200 CellAllocators across both LibJS and
LibWeb in a normal WebContent instance.
This gives us a minimum heap size of 4.7 MiB in the scenario where we
only have one cell allocated per type. Of course, in practice there will
be many more of each type, so the effective overhead is quite a bit
smaller than that in practice.
I left a few types unconverted to this mechanism because I got tired of
doing this. :^)
Stop worrying about tiny OOMs. Work towards #20449.
While going through these, I also changed the function signature in many
places where returning ThrowCompletionOr<T> is no longer necessary.
This makes Fetch rely less on using main_thread_vm().current_realm(),
which relies on the dummy execution context if no JavaScript is
currently running.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
This was an oversight from when I converted PendingResponse and various
other classes from being ref-counted to GC-allocated last minute - no
one takes care to keep all of them alive. Some are on the stack, and
some might be captured in another PendingResponse's JS::SafeFunction,
but ultimately, we need a better solution.
Since a PendingResponse is *always* the result of someone having created
a Request, let's just let that keep a list of each PendingResponse that
has been created for it, and visit them until they are resolved. After
that, they can be GC'd with no complaints.
This is the way.
On a more serious note, there's no reason to keep adding ref-counted
classes to LibWeb now that the majority of classes is GC'd - it only
adds the risk of discovering some cycle down the line, and forces us to
use handles as we can't visit().
With the addition of the 'fetch params' struct, the single ownership
model we had so far falls apart completely.
Additionally, this works nicely for FilteredResponse's internal response
instead of risking a dangling reference.
Replacing the public constructor with a create() function also found a
few instances of a Request being stack-allocated!
This is needed to eventually share a header list between a Request or
Response object's internal infra request/response and the object's
exposed Header object.
A Request/Response instance should always be heap-allocated and have
clear ownership, so let's also wrap it in a NonnullOwnPtr instead of
putting them on the stack.
The Fetch spec unfortunately will cause a name clash between the Request
concept and the Request JS object - both cannot live in the Web::Fetch
namespace, and WrapperGenerator generally assumes `Web::<Name>` for
things living in the `<Name>/` subdirectory, so let's instead move infra
code into its own namespace - it already sits in a (sub-)subdirectory
anyway.
