This is a bug for an initial framework implementation of support for <link rel=prerender> behind a preference, which can be used as an initial building block upon which full prerendering support and other prerendering features can be built and tested.

This is a super early version of what I was imagining in the etherpad as an architecture for our initial <link rel=prerender> implementation. I'd appreciate some feedback as to whether you think the basic architecture makes sense, and worries which you have about how well it will support the things we want to do with prerendering.

Implement the basic framework for <link rel=prerender> behind a pref

I would prefer to make both the function and messsage name to indicate that it may not start immediately and may not start at all. "Prerender:Request", maybe?
BTW our proposal was to start with at most one prerendered page globally (rather than per-document). Not sure if it really makes any difference for our experiments.

Since it's calling to the document, would it be better to put it to where prefetch / preconnect are handled [1][2]?

Sometime in the future we may move this to InternalLoad or so since we need to fire beforeunload event and check if user permits unload...
It can be done after groupedshitory related bugs are all implemented so for now I think it's OK.

This is a very initial version of prerendering based on samael's work with session history. The idea behind this patch is to land an initial implementation behind a pref which we can build on top of.
The following are a subset of the known problems with the current implementation which will need to be fixed in other bugs before this is ready to be prefed on by default:
* Does not interact correctly with Session History
* Indefinitely leaks browser objects related to history
* If a document is prerendered and not used, it is not cleaned up
* browsers which are part of a prerendered document's history are never cleaned up
* Browsers are not moved correctly when dragged between windows.
* The tab icon and title are not updated correctly when a prerendered page is navigated to
* Unload is not called correctly on the page which is being left when performing a prerender navigation
* The visibility of a prerendering document is not set correctly
* Prerendering is not canceled when a document performs a non-idepmotent action
* Long press on the back button does not show the correct history
* Prerendering is not canceled when the <link> element is removed
* Doesn't cleanly handle situations where some browsers end up dying (say due to a content process crash).
samael, it would be cool if you could take another look and let me know if you think this is in a state where we would want to try to land it behind a pref.

I've thrown together a quick patch which implements prerender on top of the above patch using tab switching instead of swapping of frameloaders. It also uses SessionStore to prime the new process with the current session history. It's not great, and it doesn't support bfcache (although I believe that with some work it could be made to), but i thought I should bring something like it up as an option.
The advantage of this technique is that it could require changing less things which people expect not to break. Namely:
1. every process has the complete session history
2. Frameloaders inside of browsers aren't swapped without the frontend's knowledge
This makes it really easy to do things like fall back to being process-locked (because, say, a new window was opened), which is nice. It also means that session history already works in the prototype (kinda - ignore the fact that we purple links too early and update places too early, which is a problem we will have to solve with any design).
If we decided to work with a design similar to this one, I would want to start without worrying about how we will get the cross process bfcache working, and get the correctness down and working. We would need to start working on things like ensuring that places doesn't get updated until you actually visit the page, and that we correctly set up the state for prerendering pages, and that prerendering is correctly stopped when we are done. Once we got that correctness out of the way, we would then go back and figure out how to support bfcache to get it in shipping shape - I'm not sure exactly what that solution would end up looking like, but I am confident that we could get SessionStore to update the SHistory in the original process to be up to date, and then swap back to it.
Olli and Samael, you two have thought a lot more about your session history work than I have. I know that this is not a good implementation by any means, but I want to make sure that we have considered every option, and this has always been the option that stood out to me as the most dead-simple wrt session history.

https://github.com/mystor/mozilla-central/tree/prerender <- This github branch has my current working tree for that idea.
I'm going to keep looking into how to adapt SessionStore to work with GroupedSHistory, but I thought it might be worthwhile to throw this idea together.

Oh. So it's about window.opener breakage. Umm... yes keep complete history list in each process would solve this issue.
Comment 8•8 years ago

Olli mentioned about potential issue of docshellIDs with session store before so I tried random navigations between web content and about:config, then checked docshellIDs in root session history entries.
There were 5 root entries and the docshellIDs were 1, 8, 1, 9, 1 respectively while mRootDocShell->mHistoryID was 10. So docshellIDs were messed up after session restore. I don't know how bad it indicates and I have no idea why it's not causing problems now...(or it is?)

Docshell IDs were causing issues at least to iframe handling, IIRC. And for consistency we should just
make them work correctly. Updating the top level docshell ID should be easy.

The process lock stuff is stuff which I added for the Large-Allocation header. It checks that there are no other content documents which could have a reference to this document which would prevent it from crossing process boundaries. I decided to factor it out of the logic for the Large-Allocation header so we could use it for prerendering as well.

I'll file a bug to fix that behavior and fix it in the session restore logic. I feel like it is unnecessary to store the docshell for toplevel session history entries, so I will probably simply avoid doing that.

Just a note for follow-up.
I'm thinking this [1] is a possible place we'll eventually want to invoke SwitchToPrerenderedDocument from. Right after PermitUnload checked and NotifyUnloadAccepted logged, and before actually trying to stop the document and save presentation.
The open question is what should we put as aFailure callback to make it resume from the place...

Hey Michael,
This is a possible solution to address comment 12. It's a patch based on your patch (I built it on top of your github prerender branch) + bug 1310768. It should be able to handle onbeforeunload case.
It would be great if we can merge and land a patch for this bug before leaving Hawaii.

I agree that that would be excellent. I'm working on trying to polish this up and write some tests for it today. The code is pretty buggy and needs some improvements so that's what I'm handling first. Thanks for the about:blank content viewer stuff too.

I didn't fold in your patch for firing the event in a different location, but I believe that that patch should still apply on top of the patches which I wrote. I can fold it in later if we decide that that is important.

I don't understand this part. You add event listener to 3 tabs, but wait for only 2 to be closed and then resolve.
Doesn't this possibly cause a leak or issues in the following tests?
Shouldn't you just add event listener to gBrowser and once you've got the expected events remove it.

This might have similar issue. Hard to say

When a mochitest browser test is running, the test is started with a single tabbrowser open with a single about:blank tab. The tests I am running do not modify or close that single about:blank tab, so I only needed to add listeners for the visible one and the hidden prerendering tab.
I don't remember why I decided to attach the listener to each of the tabs, but I seem to remember the "TabClose" event not making it all of the way up to the gBrowser... I can try again.

My original idea was to build prerendering as a separate feature on top of the groupedshistory, but the proposed design here, which makes prerendering entries as potential future managed by groupedshistory also looks good to me, with only few comments below.

I'm not sure what would happen if the just activated frameloader operating on session history before being attached to the grouped history. We may need to think about it.

Would it be better to just break the loop after splice? I firstly thought the loop was incorrect as the original i+1 item would be skipped due to index change, but later realized there should be only one match anyway (right?).

Why a runnable is needed here? This needs a comment.
(Also wondering why you chose using RunnableFunction and not RunnableMethod, but shouldn't matter. Hard to say which one is easier to read)

I don't understand this check. Doesn't this break prerendering in cases you go back to previous page and add new prerender links dynamically?

So it is rather nasty to hide the asynchronousness to SwitchToPrerenderedDocument.
Could you rather have a runnable which calls SwitchToPrerenderedDocument and it does its stuff synchronously and if that fails,
OnLinkClickEvent's Run is called synchronously.

Better comment please. Why current document can't be preloaded? Is that because we aren't in general supposed to load a new page

This is still mystery to me, same as in tabbrowser code. Why this check.

Michael and I are desperate to land this so I would try to push the progress as much as I can.
I rebuilt all related bugs on my local branch, which means the patches are rebased. You can interdiff with attachment 8818825 [details] [diff] [review] instead. It's exactly the same patch in previous review, but rebased. That should generate a more readable interdiff for review.

GroupedSHistory doesn't support it yet. In this case we'd want previous partial history remove some entries when appending another partial history, and the offset of the appending partial history should based on the entry index. I filed bug 1323650 for that, and added comment to point to that bug.

I think Micheal and I were both considering the asynchronous nature of SwitchToPrerenderedDocument - the failure callback can be pended and invoked until parent process notifies that the swapping fails. So we think making the immediate failure also being asynchronous makes sense.
However, one issue which stops us from merging attachment 8815187 [details] [diff] [review] (moving the call from OnLinkClick to InternalLoad) is that many test cases assume InternalLoad triggered by OnLinkClick is synchronous, and causes a lot of failures [1].
I'm changing it to ShouldSwitchToPrerenderedDocument which returns a boolean so that callers can continue synchronously if there wasn't a prerendered document for the link at all. I think with that I can move the call to InternalLoad.
I'm not 100% sure it's the right place to call ShouldSwitchToPrerenderedDocument, but the idea is that the switch should happen after PermitUnload and user accepted to leave the page, and it should be before DocShell trying to save the presentation and stop current document.

What is this new code in this version of the patch. I don't see anyone ever calling onBeforeUnloadDialogShown.
Am I missing something here?

Something to test and possibly file a followup bug. How do other browser deal with url which just different from the #fragment part here.

Hmm, the variable names are wrong here. The method is about browser.groupedhistory.enabled, not prerendering.
There is separate pref for dom.linkPrerender.enabled

It is still rather unclear what "locked" means in this context.
Could you please file a followup to rename "locked" to something understandable.
