There are a few canvas2d-related dependencies that haven't updated, but they
only use euclid internally so that's not blocking landing the rest of the
changes.
Given the size of this patch, I think it's useful to get this landed as-is.
This allows servo to use the ExternalScrollId API from WebRender fixing
some issues related to duplicate scroll root ids.
Fixes#17176.
Fixes#19287.
Fixes#19648.
This enables us to implement Element::has_css_layout_box() in a more
direct way, and also enables us to remove some of the existing more
specific queries.
Fixes#19811.
This trades quite a bit of complicated code in Servo for few more
messages and a significant performance improvement. In particular,
WebRender can search the entire display list at once instead of
ping-ponging down the pipeline tree. This allows us to send mouse
events to the correct pipeline immediately.
This avoids the need for multiple layout RPC operations immediately
following return of control to script. This means that layout and
script can continue to operate in parallel at this point, rather
than one potentially waiting on the shared mutex to be unlocked.
This ensures that we can pass a node address as part of the asynchronous
transition end notification, making it safe to fire the corresponding
DOM event on the node from the script thread. Without explicitly rooting
this node when the transition starts, we risk the node being GCed before
the transition is complete.
Just use WebRender's ClipId directly. This will allow us to create and
use ReferenceFrames in the future, if we need to do that. It will also
make it easier to have Servo responsible for creating the root
scrolling area, which will allow removing some old hacks in the future.
In support of this goal, the layout thread collects information about
CSS images that are missing image data and hands it off to the script
thread after layout completes. The script thread stores a list of
nodes that will need to be reflowed after the associated network
request is complete. The script thread ensures that the nodes are
not GCed while a request is ongoing, which the layout thread is
incapable of guaranteeing.
The image cache's API has also been redesigned in support of this
work. No network requests are made by the new image cache, since it
does not possess the document-specific information necessary to
initiate them. Instead, there is now a single, synchronous
query operation that optionally reserves a slot when a cache
entry for a URL cannot be found. This reserved slot is then
the responsibility of the queryer to populate with the contents
of the network response for the URL once it is complete. Any
subsequent queries for the same URL will be informed that the
response is pending until that occurs.
The changes to layout also remove the synchronous image loading
code path, which means that reftests now test the same code
that non-test binaries execute. The decision to take a screenshot
now considers whether there are any outstanding image
requests for layout in order to avoid intermittent failures in
reftests that use CSS images.
Layers were a feature of the legacy drawing path. If we re-add them at
some point, it probably makes more sense to make them a product of
display list inspection.
This change also remove a bunch of dead painting code.
