In addition to being reference-counted, all nodes that are part of a
document must also keep the document alive.
This is achieved by adding a second ref-count to the Document object
and incrementing/decrementing it whenever a node is created/destroyed
in that document.
This brings us much closer to a proper DOM lifetime model, although
the JS bindings still need more work.
This allows layout nodes to do some setup before their children paint,
and cleanup after their children paint. This will be used for SVG
components, where their attributes (like stroke width, fill color, etc)
need to be correctly propogated to layout nodes down the line.
This is a hack to stop chewing CPU on sites that use a font we don't
have and have a lot of text or changes text often.
Examples are the Serenity 2nd birthday page and the JS specification.
Previously we'd only pick up background-image when it was part of the
background shorthand.
CSS property application remains hackish, lots of room for improvement
in this area. :^)
When the user right-clicks on an image, you might want to show a
special context menu, separate from the regular link context menu.
This patch only implements enough of the functionality to get this
working in a single-process context.
This is the origin timestamp of the same monotonic clock used for the
performance.now() timestamp.
I got a little confused while implementing this, since the numbers are
very low. That's because it uses the CLOCK_MONOTONIC system clock,
which we start counting from 0 at boot. :^)
This patch introduces the HighResolutionTime namespace which is home to
the Performance object (exposed via window.performance)
performance.now() is currently the only function, and it returns the
number of milliseconds since the window object was constructed. :^)
More work on decoupling the general runtime from Interpreter. The goal
is becoming clearer. Interpreter should be one possible way to execute
code inside a VM. In the future we might have other ways :^)
This patch moves the exception state, call stack and scope stack from
Interpreter to VM. I'm doing this to help myself discover what the
split between Interpreter and VM should be, by shuffling things around
and seeing what falls where.
With these changes, we no longer have a persistent lexical environment
for the current global object on the Interpreter's call stack. Instead,
we push/pop that environment on Interpreter::run() enter/exit.
Since it should only be used to find the global "this", and not for
variable storage (that goes directly into the global object instead!),
I had to insert some short-circuiting when walking the environment
parent chain during variable lookup.
Note that this is a "stepping stone" commit, not a final design.
With this patch, we now enforce basic same-origin policy for this one
<iframe> attribute.
To make it easier to add more attributes like this, I've added an
extended IDL attribute ("[ReturnNullIfCrossOrigin]") that does exactly
what it sounds like. :^)
Getting ready for some extremely basic same-origin policy stuff,
this initial implementation simply checks that two origins have
identical protocol, host and port.
Taking a big step towards a world of multiple global object, this patch
adds a new JS::VM object that houses the JS::Heap.
This means that the Heap moves out of Interpreter, and the same Heap
can now be used by multiple Interpreters, and can also outlive them.
The VM keeps a stack of Interpreter pointers. We push/pop on this
stack when entering/exiting execution with a given Interpreter.
This allows us to make this change without disturbing too much of
the existing code.
There is still a 1-to-1 relationship between Interpreter and the
global object. This will change in the future.
Ultimately, the goal here is to make Interpreter a transient object
that only needs to exist while you execute some code. Getting there
will take a lot more work though. :^)
Note that in LibWeb, the global JS::VM is called main_thread_vm(),
to distinguish it from future worker VM's.
