This allows keeping the VertexAttrib* calls asynchronous.
Another option would be to do the validation in the apply() function,
but that'd require us passing an unnecessary channel around and add
extra synchronization.
The counterpart of this is that it has to be updated when the context
changes, but that's less problem.
This changes headless operation to strictly be a runtime option, rather
than a compile-time one. Note that the old headless version still relied
on a display server to support WebGL, while it now requires one all the
time.
Fixes#8573
after navigation.
The first bug was that iframes were not reflowed in their parent DOM
when the child page navigated. This is fixed by simply having the
constellation notify the appropriate script thread when navigation
occurs.
The second bug was that the compositor was unable to adjust the pipeline
for existing iframe layers, only new ones. This patch adds logic to do
that.
Closes#8081.
Also change when pipelines become active.
This makes the constellation activate a pipeline as the current frame
when it is ready to do initial reflow, rather than when it is ready
to paint.
This fixes a number of intermittent failures that could previously occur
if an iframe was not visible - which would mean it was never moved from
a pending frame in the constellation to an active frame.
(It happens that webrender exposes these intermittents as permanent failures).
Add slow path for hit testing of iframe behind positioned content layer
Fixes browser.html blocker #8759. r? @pcwalton
This adds a slow path for cases where the compositor's layer-based hit testing is incorrect. If the script task discovers that a mouse event should have been dispatched to an iframe, it bounces the event back to the constellation to be forwarded to the correct pipeline.
This isn't terribly slow (on the slow path, it adds one extra round-trip message between script and constellation), but if we want to optimize this better we could instead replace the compositor's layer hit testing with display list hit testing in the paint task. This would be a more complicated change that I think we should save for a follow-up.
This only fixes mouse input for now. A basically-identical change will be needed for touch-screen input, whether we stick with this approach or switch to the paint task.
