This change introduces Skia painter available under a flag. It's not
yet match capabilities of Gfx::Painter and is not ready to replace it.
Motivation:
- The current CPU painter is a performance bottleneck on most websites.
Our own GPU painter implementation is very immature and has received
relatively little attention.
- There is ongoing effort on building painter that supports affine
transforms (AffineCommandExecutorCPU) but it is far from being on par
with the default CPU painter. Skia will allow us to immediately get
full transformation support for all painting commands.
GPU painting:
I experimented with Ganesh GPU-backend, however profiling revealed that
without sharing viewport texture between WebContent and Browser
processes, it won't bring much performance improvement compared to
CPU-backend. Therefore, I decided to keep this PR focused on
implementing most of painting commands and switch to GPU-backend in
future changes.
Text rendring:
Skia painter uses glyph bitmaps produced by LibGfx. Using Skia for text
rendering will require large refactoring of the font rendering
subsystem. Currently, it's impossible to construct SkFont right before
rendering because Gfx::VectorFont can't be serialized back into sequence
of bytes.
There is a problem with ugly include paths like:
`#include <core/SkBitmap.h>`.
I would prefer to have skia prefix in the path. There was an attempt to
fix that but PR was rejected https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/32660
Regressions compared to Gfx::Painter:
- DrawText is not implemented
- PaintTextShadow is not implemented
- PaintRadialGradient and PaintLinearGradient do not support "transition
hints" and repeat length
- PaintConicGradient is not implemented
- DrawTriangleWave is not implemented
- DrawLine does not account for line style property
- DrawScaledBitmap and DrawScaledImmutableBitmap do not account for
scaling mode property
This change is a preparation before introducing Skia painter in an
upcoming change. It's needed because Skia does not have an API to
implement ClearClipRect command. It only allows to return previous
clip rect by popping from its internal state stack.
A bit more context: initially we had save and restore commands, but
their frequent use led to many reallocations of vector during painting
commands recording. To resolve this, we switched to SegmentedVector to
store commands list, which allows fast appends. Now, having many save
and restore commands no longer causes noticeable performance issue.
This fixes some errors where too many bytes were allowed to be read for
signed integers of a smaller size (e.g. i32). The new parser doesn't
make 64-bit assumptions and now matches the generality of its unsigned
counterpart.
Add the missing `print` function to the spectest namespace. Also, spec
externs cannot be re-used because operations that modify "memory", for
example, will carry over into subsequent spec test runs. This can be
remedied in the future by implementing some sort of garbage collector
for allocations in the store.
This adds a motion preference to the browser UI similar to the existing
ones for color scheme and contrast.
Both AppKit UI and Qt UI has this new preference.
The auto value is currently the same as NoPreference, follow-ups can
address wiring that up to the actual preference for the OS.
This changes the Sanitizer configs to build all the vcpkg dependencies
with our specified CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS for ASAN and UBSAN.
Unfortunately, we can't yet enable actually compiling them with
sanitizers enabled, because this causes test failures that need to be
investigated.
ListFormat was the first formatter I ported to ICU. This patch makes it
match the style of subsequently ported formatters, where we create the
formatter once per Intl object, rather than once per prototype
invocation.
We were previously treating undefined and null as the same (an empty
Optional). However, there are edge cases in ECMA-402 where we must treat
them differently. Namely, the hour cycle (hc) keyword. An undefined hc
value has no effect on the resolved locale, whereas a null hc value can
actively override any hc specified in the locale string. For example:
new Intl.DateTimeFormat("en-u-hc-h11", { hour12: false });
In that object, the hour12 option does not match the u-hc-h11 value. So
the spec dictates we remove the hc value by setting it to null.
The URL is now not shown when a new tab is initially activated until
the location bar loses focus. This allows the user to see the location
bar placeholder text when opening a new tab. It also makes it easier to
paste URLs into the location bar after opening a new tab.
By default, we were linking the debug version of all vcpkg dependencies,
which was very noticeable in benchmarks. Let's default to a build type
with reasonable performance.
Unlike in Serenity, let's just run this job once per PR rather than on
every job. This lets us install fewer dependencies on the build-and-test
pipelines.
