Comment on attachment 8959482 [details] [diff] [review] 0001-Bug-1445659-Create-AbstractBrowsingContexts-in-paren.patch Finally got something together. This creates an AbstractBrowsingContext in both TabParent and TabChild, like we discussed. Only TabChild populates the docshell of the ABC, and attaching + detaching hangs off of the end of nsDocShell::InternalLoad, because that's where we converge with different kinds of loads. The 0002-patch exposes a function getAbstractBrowsingContext on Window that I've used for testing, and the zip attached contains such a test. If you unzip that and run two servers locally on different ports, then you can see ABC's being built by calling 'postMessage('get', '*') in the debug console.

Priority: -- → P2
There are some ipc errors, due to the silly broadcasting in TabParent. Still very much work in progress.

Moved ABCs to docshell, where they should've been all along. Also fixed detaching, but I'm not really happy, since we have the map of all ABCs in a TabChild we can never just deref a node and assume that the entire subtree is detached.

Attachment #8968453 - Attachment is obsolete: true
This removes AbstractBrowsingContextDictionary in favour of having a StaticAutoPtr<nsDataHashTable<uint64_t, AbstractBrowsingContext>> of all available contexts, and a StaticAutoPtr<LinkedList<RefPtr<AbstractBrowsingContext>> of all root contexts and static ::Get + ::GetOrCreate. Attach + Detach of ABCs sort of works, but breaks for session history and some other cases. It is in no way clear when to either attach or detach a child context to a parent or a root to the list of roots, especially since it is required that the PBrowser is present.

Summary: Create AbstractBrowsingContexts in parent/child → Implement a minimal form of Abstract Browsing Contexts
Move Attach/Detach from PBrowser to PContent. Make child abc's refcounted.
Attachment #8974470 - Attachment is obsolete: true
So I've been thinking a bit more about the AbstractBrowsingContext name, and despite the 'ABC' being really cute, I'm starting to think we should just call it a BrowsingContext. The original reason why we wanted not to use the name 'BrowsingContext' was because it seemed more appropriate as a name for nsDocShell. However, I think ABCs match the spec definition of a BrowsingContext, as it persists across browser navigations. The nsDocShell acts more as a "Document Loader" which handles loading a sequence of related documents within an individual process. Using the BrowsingContext name will likely require less explanation to people familiar with the standard, and is also a shorter name. How do you feel about that change :farre & :bz?
Flags: needinfo?(bzbarsky)
Flags: needinfo?(afarre)
In the new world where docshell is not persistent across navigations, makes sense to me.
Flags: needinfo?(bzbarsky)
Wasn't the idea that AbstractBrowserContext would then have concrete, per process BrowsingContexts (== DocShells). From a process point of view, DocShell is BrowsingContext. And things like "document does not have a browsing context" in the spec refers to something closer to DocShell. And per spec BrowsingContext is the thing which loads stuff. "A browsing context is an environment in which Document objects are presented to the user." ABC which doesn't have docshell attached to it in the current process doesn't have any document objects presented to the user. But whatever works the best. I have my opinion, but it isn't strong.
git mv AbstractBrowsingContext.* -> BrowsingContext.* I'm in total agreement.

Boris, me and Peter have been discussing this patch while I've been implementing it, so I was wondering if you would be ok with him reviewing it? Otherwise I'd be perfectly happy for you or Olli to do it, whatever makes it easier. It has recently started to look landable, and the new BC class actually gets some use by moving name from nsDocShell to BrowsingContext.

Thanks for the catch, I had that documentation uncommitted locally. I added two _very_ simple tests. I didn't reset the r? flag since I'm a bit hesitant about those two tests being enough (and the fact that cppunittests refuse to run for me locally). Will return to it on thursday after tomorrows holiday.

Test cases added to the AutoCleanLinkedList patch. Moved to gtest and found and fixed a bug! In the previous version delete was called on LinkedListElement<T>*, which happens to have a non-virtual destructor. The solution is to call delete on LinkedListElement<T>->asT(), similarly to how the other adapter methods do.

Right, this could be final. I'll make it so. The reason for the other being virtual is exactly to test that the right destructor gets called in AutoCleanLinkedList (the bug I found was actually due to that). The fact that the refcounted doesn't destroy itself is because I want to be able to inspect counts. I borrowed heavily from the cppunittests in the folder above.
r+ carried over, fixed testcase to use final.

Addressed review comments, and perhaps most importantly took a stab at some verification of process/context ids. Also moved BrowsingContext from mozilla to mozilla::dom as per Nika's request. Also added logging, to be able to see what's happening. The changes grew a bit out of scope so I'll attach an interdiff.

Some test code that adds getAbstractBrowsingContext and getAllAbstractBrowsingContexts to Window. They both return objects describing the BC, useful to JSON.stringify. I usually call them from the console, which makes it possible to inspect the child process (given that you have a document loaded), but loading for exacmple about:config and calling either of the will give the BC's of the parent.

Added cleanup of BrowsingContexts when child processes go away. I'm note sure if I'm happy with the solution, with a lot of root contexts iterating over that list might take too much time? It would be fairly easy to instead idle-dispatch a runnable that does the work incrementally. Also, since cleanup acts on root contexts it doesn't handle the case where non-root contexts, that should be cleaned, appear in several child processes. For that I filed Bug 1472108.
Attachment #8988690 - Flags: review?(peterv)
Patch number 4 in this patch series iterates over _all_ BrowsingContexts in the ContentParent when a ContentChild goes away, and this might be sub-optimal. This patch initiates an incremental cleanup sequence using idle callbacks. If we decide to go with this instead it needs a bit more tweaking to determine the best timeout, etc. I'm not saying we should, but I thought I'd attach it anyway.
Try is looking greenish: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=4ea3c42607f4d959b6f6437e40d5efd423811dcf&group_state=expanded&selectedJob=185577345 There are some intermittents that insist on not going away after retries.
