916199 - Worker - Support TCPSocket on workers

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Comment 1

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

This will necessitate a rewrite of TCPSocket.js in C++. I am saddened but resigned.

Comment 2

[Till Schneidereit [:till]]

Required for supporting RTMP in an OMTShumway world

Comment 3

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

Having considered further, I don't think rewriting in C++ will gain us anything. We're going to require proxying to the main thread anyways, since we use Necko for the actual socket stuff, so we might as well just provide an extremely basic worker-side C++ shim that just hides the proxying.

This patch passes the included test. There are many things about it that make me uncomfortable, but it's a good start.

Is keeping objects on the worker alive while the main thread is doing stuff one of the things making you uncomfortable? ;)

since both entries match and you aren't using the worker binding in code, you don't need this workers entry

using mozTCPSocketBinding::Wrap in both cases should work.

Attachment: Proxy all off-main thread TCPSocket usage to the main thread to support workers. WIP

Now with slightly better worker-owned lifetime management. Still various usages of the JSAPI that need vetting, and the new test leaks a bit more than it used it.

Comment 8

[Jonas Sicking (:sicking) No longer reading bugmail consistently]

At some point we should use Bent's new off-main-thread-thread which allows not bouncing through the main thread in the child process. And if we take advantage of the fact that necko these days can deliver OnDataAvailable calls to threads other than the main thread, it would allow us to avoid having the transmitted data ever touching the main thread in any process.

But maybe it's better to rewrite to use that once we change up the API to match with the spec. I don't think the spec is quite stable enough for that to make sense yet.

Comment 9

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

"off-main-thread-thread"? Is that a typo, or is there some reading I can do that will help me understand better? Off-main-thread OnDataAvailable won't help us without rewriting at least some part of the implementation in C++, since we can't run the JS socket listener on the worker thread.

Comment 10

[Jonas Sicking (:sicking) No longer reading bugmail consistently]

It's not a typo. It's a mechanism for child processes to talk to the parent process without going through the main thread of either process. You'll want to talk to bent. I'm not sure how much of it has landed yet.

Comment 11

[Jonas Sicking (:sicking) No longer reading bugmail consistently]

But yes, my point is that we'll need to rewrite the TCPSocket API in C++ at some point to take advantage of this. Aren't we already bouncing back and forth between C++ and JS a bunch in order to do IPC?

Actually... all your attached patches are magically disappeared. Mark me as reviewer when they will come back :)

I'm more than happy for Andrea to review this first (yay less work for me) but the worker thread proxy needs to be reviewed by bent or me before it lands too.

This is the patch with the interesting worker interactions.

Comment 23

[Gene Lian (I already quit Mozilla)]

Just a drive-by comment: bug 949325 (part 2-2 patch) already introduced the WorkerMainThreadRunnable which has a better naming than the SyncWorkerRunnable in your patch. You may work out patches on top of that.

It also has a better return type for MainThreadRun().

Comment 25

[Andrea Marchesini [:baku]]

Is this a temporary solution?
Do we want to rewrite TCPSocket in C++ and have 1 single implementation for workers and main-thread eventually?

No, in the case of passing the EventTargetProxy which doesn't have an ownerGlobal (it only implements nsIDOMEventTarget).

I don't understand this request. Do we intend to reuse this concept of a cross-thread event target proxy somewhere else?

Maybe you can use [CheckPermissions="tcp-socket"] and remove the hand-coded permission checking in TCPSocket.js?

Read the later patches; I add something similar in the serversocket one I believe.

https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=4471962e2219 seems to have gotten rid of the various crashes in the mochitests. Now I just need to solve that mysterious TCPServerSocket test_interfaces.html failure that's only present on opt builds.

Part 4: Merge inproc/oop/worker TCPSocket tests

Patrick, Donovan has said that he does not have time to review this patch which changes the tcpsocket test harness. Is this something that you could look at? For context, bug 885982 turns the xpcshell tests into mochitests, then earlier patches here add OOP and worker tests by doing a lot of copying and pasting. This patch just consolidates all of those variations into something that resembles the browser element test harness.

These are integers already, no need to get floor of them.

As joint success functions are made global, I'd suggest that you access them through |gFuncs| instead of |yays| in each test case, since |yays| looks like a reference to a local object.

|server| is not in this file anymore, we should just remove code.

This function isn't called, since the parent notifies the child with 'serverCallback' message, which doesn't make this function called.

The next big array is sent once server received the data, whether |ondrain| on client side is called or not. We should make sure that the first ondrain is called before starting to send next big array.

Since |makeJointSuccess| here just pass a message to notify child that one of the success functions is called, it doesn't check whether all of the functions are call on parent side, we should make name of |makeJointSuccess| reflect this fact and note that 'clientopen' isn't expected to be called on parent side (or just delete it).

> Let us rid ourselves of this false pretense.

So, I do find this pretty funny in a complicated multi-layered kind of way, but is there a plan going forward for TCPSocket?  Like are we mooting this because https://github.com/sysapps/tcp-udp-sockets is getting close to something new and fancy and we're just planning to re-do everything for that (so why review this)?

Comment 71

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

I just cancelled the review request because there's no real reason to review that very old patch. I have rebased patches which I'm planning to throw at him again.

Checkpointing my current work. There are still problems with the server socket having to do some work on the main thread.

Why not move this to PBackground (and c++) - network traffic (from non-MainThread) really shouldn't hit MainThread....  and right now it hits it on both sides I think.  We need it moved to MainThread anyways for supporting realtime/low-latency use in media/mtransport (for TURN-TCP in WebRTC)

PBackground didn't exist when any of this was written.

Aha... Yeah I saw all the recent traffic but didn't check the date on comment 3.  Yeah, that was a while ago!
