With same-site BFCache enabled every navigation can now potentially be served
via the BFCache. To support this internally a new top-level RenderFrame object
may be created for each new navigation. As a result, OnBrowserCreated may now
be called multiple times with the same browser ID in a given renderer process
(a behavior previously only seen with cross-site navigations and different
renderer processes).
BFCache navigations do not trigger the same Chromium notifications as a normal
load. To avoid breaking CEF API usage expectations we now synthetically
generate the load-related callbacks that would otherwise be missing
(OnLoadingStateChange with isLoading=true, OnLoadStart, OnLoadEnd). The
|httpStatusCode| argument to OnLoadEnd will be 0 in this case.
To test:
- Run `FrameHandlerTest.*:MessageRouterTest.*:NavigationTest.*`
- Run `NavigationTest.LoadSameOriginLoadURL` for OnBrowserCreated behavior.
- Run `NavigationTest.History` for load-related callback behavior.
This change configures session restore behavior for the NEXT application
restart by setting the "session.restore_on_startup" preference based on the
[CefSettings|CefRequestContextSettings].persist_session_cookies value.
This change adds a CefDownloadHandler::CanDownload callback for optionally
blocking user-initiated downloads (e.g. alt + link click or link click that
returns a `Content-Disposition: attachment` response from the server).
To test:
- Run `ceftests --gtest_filter=DownloadTest.*`.
- Run `cefclient --hide-controls`. User-initiated downloads will be blocked.
This change adds a CefCommandHandler::OnChromeCommand callback for optionally
handling Chrome commands triggered via menus or keyboard shortcuts. Supported
command IDs are listed in a new cef_command_ids.h header file.
To test: Run `cefclient --enable-chrome-runtime --hide-controls`. Most commands
will blocked and removed from context menus.
This change adds `CefBrowserSettings.chrome_status_bubble` for controlling
whether the Chrome status bubble will be used.
Testable in cefclient by passing the `--hide-chrome-status-bubble`
command-line flag.
Create a CefFileSystemDelegate based on the ShellFileSystemDelegate placeholder
implementation. An actual implementation will still be required to properly
support this download functionality.
This functionality stopped being relevant after the removal of Flash support
in January 2021. The last remaining PPAPI plugin (PDF viewer) will switch to
a non-plugin implementation (PdfUnseasoned) in M100.
The mojo channel used for frame communication may disconnect for a variety of
reasons including frame navigation, frame destruction, or insertion into the
BackForwardCache (when the browser-side frame representation is destroyed and
closes the connection). When disconnect occurs we now evaluate the situation
and reconnect if appropriate.
Connections are now initiated solely from the renderer process and the
RenderFrame is passed as an argument to FrameAttached() instead of being
retrieved independently. Messages are queued while the frame is disconnected
and sent only after FrameAttachedAck() is received from the browser process.
The renderer process will be crashed intentionally with a "connection retry
failure" message if the reconnect fails 3 times in a row.
Add the generated includes/ directory to CEF's "config" so that source files
included in patched Chromium targets (for example, blink_glue.cc) can find
cef_config.h which will be included via `include/internal/cef_types_linux.h`
on Linux.
Fixes a shutdown crash due to `ExtensionsBrowserClient::Set(nullptr)` being
called too early. Some code that may occasionally be triggered via
`content::ContentMainShutdown()` is expecting the extensions objects to still
be valid.
This new ownership pattern matches the code in chrome/.
URLLoaderNetworkServiceObserver is used for routing certificate and
authentication callbacks from the NetworkService to the associated
StoragePartition instance. With request interception enabled this object was
previously only assigned for the initial request. This change adds assignment
for restarted/redirected requests as well.
With PdfUnseasoned the PDF file will be loaded in a dedicated renderer process.
We identify this process by adding the kPdfRenderer command-line flag (similar
to how kExtensionProcess is used to identify an extension renderer process). We
then avoid calling GetNewBrowserInfo for the PDF renderer process because we
know the request will otherwise time out.
We need to override ChromeMimeHandlerViewGuestDelegate to handle
OnGuestAttached/Detached callbacks in order to account for the guest renderer
process hosting the PDF extension.
Additional work will be required to account for the renderer process hosting the
PDF viewer when using `--enable-features=PdfUnseasoned` (see issue #2969).
Browser windows created via CefBrowserHost::CreateBrowser should be shown at
creation time. These windows receive default Chromium styling, unlike
CefBrowserView windows which may contain other client-specified Views and
where show state can be configured via CefWindowDelegate::GetInitialShowState
or by calling CefWindow::Show.
- Remove CefRequestContextHandler::OnBeforePluginLoad and
CefRequestContext::PurgePluginListCache (fixes issue #3047). These methods
stopped being relevant after the removal of Flash support in January 2021.
The last remaining PPAPI plugin (PDF viewer) will switch to a non-plugin
implementation in the near future (see https://crbug.com/702993#c58) and
functionality related to plugin filtering has already been removed in
https://crrev.com/343ae351c9.
