When the V8 sandbox is enabled, ArrayBuffer backing stores must be
allocated inside the sandbox address space. This change introduces a new
CefV8Value::CreateArrayBufferWithCopy method that copies the memory
contents into the sandbox address space.
Enabling the V8 sandbox can have a performance impact, especially when
passing large ArrayBuffers from C++ code to the JS side. We have therefore
retained the old CefV8Value::CreateArrayBuffer method that references
external memory. However, this method can only be used if the V8 sandbox is
disabled at CEF/Chromium build time.
To disable the V8 sandbox add `v8_enable_sandbox=false` to
`GN_DEFINES` when building CEF/Chromium.
Include cef_config.h from base/cef_build.h and fix detection of
args.gn changes so that defines are available everywhere by default.
Fix include configuration for chrome_elf_set and sandbox targets.
Ozone builds can run with different platform backends (Wayland, X11, etc). Usage of the Views framework is required, and the cefclient sample application is not supported.
Example usage:
$ export GN_DEFINES="use_ozone=true"
$ cd /path/to/chromium/src/cef
$ ./cef_create_projects.sh
$ cd /path/to/chromium/src
$ ninja -C out/Release_GN_x64 cefsimple
$ ./out/Release_GN_x64/cefsimple --use-views --ozone-platform=wayland
Binary distributions can be created by passing the `--ozone` flag to make_distrib.py.
