Represent BufferSource and ArrayBufferView as ordinary IDL typedefs over
their underlying union types, instead of special casing in the IDL
generator. This allows the union conversion/return machinery handle
these types consistently with other typedefs, which removes buffer
specific paths from the IDL generator.
This necessitates changing the WebIDL::BufferSource and
WebIDL::ArrayBufferView classes as views over these variants. This
replaces the old GC backed BufferableObject wrapper structure and
provide convenience helpers to determine things such as the byte length,
byte offset, backing buffer, and typed-array APIs.
Represent WebIDL C++ types with a single CppType model that tracks
nullability, optional presence, and contained storage.
GC-like values now use GC::Ref/GC::Ptr directly, while containers choose
"plain", "Root", or "Conservative" container types depending on what
they contain. For example, sequence<Element> becomes a RootVector of
GC::Ref values, while sequence<SomeDictionary> becomes a
ConservativeVector only when the dictionary contains GC-like values.
This moves the generated bindings away from wrapping GC values in
GC::Root by default.
This has broad fallout as the types passed to interfaces for GC
objects changes almost fully across the board.
Previously we were inconsistent by generating code for enum definitions
but not generating code for dictionaries. With future changes to the
IDL generator to expose helpers to convert to and from IDL values
this produced circular depdendencies. To solve this problem, also
generate the dictionary definitions in bindings headers.
Previously, the LibWeb bindings generator would output multiple per
interface files like Prototype/Constructor/Namespace/GlobalMixin
depending on the contents of that IDL file.
This complicates the build system as it means that it does not know
what files will be generated without knowledge of the contents of that
IDL file.
Instead, for each IDL file only generate a single Bindings/<IDLFile>.h
and Bindings/<IDLFile>.cpp.
Our structured serialization implementation had its own bespoke encoder
and decoder to serialize JS values. It also used a u32 buffer under the
hood, which made using its structures a bit awkward. We had previously
worked around its data structures in transferable streams, which nested
transfers of MessagePort instances. We basically had to add hooks into
the MessagePort to route to the correct transfer receiving steps, and
we could not invoke the correct AOs directly as the spec dictates.
We now use IPC mechanics to encode and decode data. This works because,
although we are encoding JS values, we are only ultimately encoding
primitive and basic AK types. The resulting data structures actually
enforce that we implement transferable streams exactly as the spec is
worded (I had planned to do that in a separate commit, but the fallout
of this patch actually required that change).
We currently store Web::Fetch::Infrastructure::Response objects in the
HTTP cache. They are associated with their original realm, but when we
use a cached response, we clone it into the target realm. For example,
two <iframe> objects loading the same HTML will be in different realms.
When we clone the response, we must use the target realm throughout the
entire cloning process. We neglected to do this for the cloned response
body stream, which is cloned via teeing. The result was the the stream
for the "cloned" response was created in the original realm, causing
issues down the line when reading from that stream tried to handle read
promises on behalf of the original realm. There are protections in place
to prevent this from happening, and the cached response read would never
complete.
This mistakenly implemented the 'piped to' operation on ReadableStream.
No functional difference as the caller was doing the extra work already
of 'piped through' vs 'piped to'.
As far as I can tell there is no change in WPT from this implementation.
But these steps should be more effecient than using the non BYOB steps
as we can make direct use of the provided buffer to the byte stream.
Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
