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.
Sometimes clippy gets outdated by months, and its current support setup
means that each Servo component need to opt into it by depending on
the plugins crate manually, and not all components do that.
This removes paint threads, rust-layers dependency, and changes
optional webrender types to be required.
The use_webrender option has been removed, however I've left
the "-w" command line option in place so that wpt
runner can continue to pass that. Once it's removed from there
we can also remove the -w option.
Once this stage is complete, it should be fine to change the
display list building code to generate webrender display
lists directly and avoid the conversion step.
The style candidate cache had regressed a few times (see #12534), and my
intuition is that being able to disable all style sharing with a single rule in
the page is really unfortunate.
This commit redesigns the style sharing cache in order to be a optimistic cache,
but then reject candidates if they match different sibling-affecting selectors
in the page, for example.
So far the numbers have improved, but not so much as I'd wanted (~10%/20% of
non-incremental restyling time in general). The current implementation is really
dumb though (we recompute and re-match a lot of stuff), so we should be able to
optimise it quite a bit.
I have different ideas for improving it (that may or may not work), apart of the
low-hanging fruit like don't re-matching candidates all the time but I have to
measure the real impact.
Also, I need to verify it against try.
