Add VERIFY(document().layout_is_up_to_date()) assertions to the safe
layout_node() and paintable() accessors on DOM::Node. These catch cases
where code accesses layout or paint data without first ensuring layout
is up to date.
Code that legitimately needs to access layout/paintable data when layout
is stale (e.g. during tree construction, style recalculation, painting,
or invalidation propagation) should use the unsafe_layout_node(),
unsafe_paintable(), or unsafe_paintable_box() accessors instead.
Add unsafe_layout_node(), unsafe_paintable(), and unsafe_paintable_box()
accessors that skip layout-staleness verification. These are for use in
contexts where accessing layout/paintable data is legitimate despite
layout not being up to date: tree construction, style recalculation,
painting, animation interpolation, DOM mutation, and invalidation
propagation.
Also add wrapper APIs on Node to centralize common patterns:
- set_needs_display() wraps if (unsafe_paintable()) ...set_needs_display
- set_needs_paint_only_properties_update() wraps similar
- set_needs_layout_update() wraps if (unsafe_layout_node()) ...
And add Document::layout_is_up_to_date() which checks whether layout
tree update flags are all clear.
Add a cached m_in_editable_subtree flag to Node, updated on tree
mutations and contenteditable/designMode changes.
This replaces the recursive parent walk in is_editable() and
is_editing_host() with an O(1) flag check. The flag is recomputed
in inserted(), moved_from(), and cleared in removed_from(). Subtree
walks recompute the flag when contenteditable attributes change or
design mode is toggled.

Remove includes from Node.h that are only needed for forward
declarations (AccessibilityTreeNode.h, XMLSerializer.h,
JsonObjectSerializer.h). Extract StyleInvalidationReason and
FragmentSerializationMode enums into standalone lightweight
headers so downstream headers (CSSStyleSheet.h, CSSStyleProperties.h,
HTMLParser.h) can include just the enum they need instead of all of
Node.h. Replace Node.h with forward declarations in headers that only
use Node by pointer/reference.
This breaks the circular dependency between Node.h and
AccessibilityTreeNode.h, reducing AccessibilityTreeNode.h's
recompilation footprint from ~1399 to ~25 files.
Remove 11 heavy includes from Document.h that were only needed for
pointer/reference types (already forward-declared in Forward.h), and
extract the nested ViewportClient interface to a standalone header.
This reduces Document.h's recompilation cascade from ~1228 files to
~717 files (42% reduction). Headers like BrowsingContext.h that were
previously transitively included see even larger improvements (from
~1228 down to ~73 dependents).
Various parts of the spec ask us to walk the flat tree. In most cases
that's the same as getting its parent or shadow host, but `<slot>` in
particular breaks this rule, as a slotted element's flat tree parent is
the slot.
This change introduces SlotRegistry to track slot elements per shadow
root. This allows us to iterate slots directly when assigning
slottables for a tree instead of walking an entire subtree.
This adds visit_edges(Cell::Visitor&) methods to various helper structs
that contain GC pointers, and makes sure they are called from owning
GC-heap-allocated objects as needed.
These were found by our Clang plugin after expanding its capabilities.
The added rules will be enforced by CI going forward.
The microtask is conceptually global and fires pending observers at the
agent level. As such, it doesn't make sense for it to be associated with
any specific document.
In the current spec, MutationObservers are explicitly added to the
pending mutation observers list, and they are removed when that list is
cleared in the "notify mutation observers" microtask.
This solves some issues with slotchange events.
As noted, we delay actually emptying the list of pending mutation
observers until after we're finished with the "clone", because we can't
actually copy or move the intrusive list. As far as I am aware, this
should not affect behaviour because only one microtask can run at once.
We have a couple of ways to designate spec notes and (our) developer
notes in comments, but we never really settled on a single approach. As
a result, we have a bit of a mixed bag of note comments on our hands.
To the extent that I could find them, I changed developer notes to
`// NB: ...` and changed spec notes to `// NOTE: ...`. The rationale for
this is that in most web specs, notes are prefixed by `NOTE: ...` so
this makes it easier to copy paste verbatim. The choice for `NB: ...` is
pretty arbitrary, but it makes it stand out from the regular spec notes
and it was already in wide use in our codebase.
Before this change, we've been maintaining various StyleComputer caches
at the document level.
This made sense for old-school documents without shadow trees, since
all the style information was document-wide anyway. However, documents
with many shadow trees ended up suffering since any time you mutated
a style sheet inside a shadow tree, *all* style caches for the entire
document would get invalidated.
This was particularly expensive on Reddit, which has tons of shadow
trees with their own style elements. Every time we'd create one of their
custom elements, we'd invalidate the document-level "rule cache" and
have to rebuild it, taking about ~60ms each time (ouch).
This commit introduces a new object called StyleScope.
Every Document and ShadowRoot has its own StyleScope. Rule caches etc
are moved from StyleComputer to StyleScope.
Rule cache invalidation now happens at StyleScope level. As an example,
rule cache rebuilds now take ~1ms on Reddit instead of ~60ms.
This is largely a mechanical change, moving things around, but there's
one key detail to be aware of: due to the :host selector, which works
across the shadow DOM boundary and reaches from inside a shadow tree out
into the light tree, there are various places where we have to check
both the shadow tree's StyleScope *and* the document-level StyleScope
in order to get all rules that may apply.
When an element has `display: contents` and it gets marked for a layout
tree rebuild, we actually have to mark its parent for rebuild as well.
The structure of the parent (and siblings) may change depending on how
the `display: contents` element changes (e.g position, display, etc.)
This function was supposed to throw errors even before the TrustedTypes
spec thanks to the CharacterData replaceData call but had a MUST.
This changes this to ensure this function can throw an error
Update Element::parse_fragment and Node::unsafely_set_html to
propagate exceptions.
This refactor is needed as a prerequisite for implementing the XML
fragment parser, which requires consistent error handling in fragment
parsing.
If a node with `contenteditable=true/plaintextonly` is the child of an
editable node or an editing host, we should make it editable instead of
an editing host. This effectively merges nested editing hosts together,
which is how other browsers deal with this as well.
Gains us 5 WPT subtest passes in `editing`.
For the web, we allow a wobbly UTF-16 encoding (i.e. lonely surrogates
are permitted). Only in a few exceptional cases do we strictly require
valid UTF-16. As such, our `validate(AllowLonelySurrogates::Yes)` calls
will always succeed. It's a wasted effort to ever make such a check.
This patch eliminates such invocations. The validation methods will now
only check for strict UTF-16, and are only invoked when needed.
Before this change, whenever element's attributes changed, we would add
a flag to "pending invalidation", indicating that all descendants whose
style uses CSS custom properties needed to be recomputed. This resulted
in severe overinvalidation, because we would run invalidation regardless
of whether any custom property on affected element actually changed.
This change takes another approach, and now we decide whether
descendant's style needs to be recomputed based on whether ancestor's
style recomputation results in a change of custom properties, though
this approach adds a little overhead to style computation as now we have
to compare old vs new hashmap of custom properties.
This brings substantial improvement on discord and x.com where, before
this change, advantage of using invalidation sets was lost and we had
to recompute all descendants, because almost all of them use custom
properties.
This patch expands our generated content support beyond single strings
to lists of strings and/or images.
Pseudo-elements like ::before and ::after can now use content:url(...)
to insert anonymous image boxes into the layout tree.
This is heavily used in Google Docs for UI elements.
This migrates TextNode::text_for_rendering() to Utf16String and deals
with the fallout. As a consequence, this effectively reverts commit
3df83dade8.
The layout test expecation file updates are because we now express text
lengths and offsets in UTF-16 code units.
The selection-over-multiple-code-units expectation file update actually
represents a correctness fix. Our result now matches Firefox.
This change converts `Node::invalidate_style()` (invalidation sets
overload) from eagerly doing tree traversal that marks elements affected
by invalidation set to instead adding "pending invalidation sets" into
`StyleInvalidator`, processing of which is deferred until the next
`update_style()`. By doing that we sometimes substantially reduce amount
of work done performing tree traversal that marks elements for style
recalculation.
Improves performance on Discord, were according to my measurements we
were previously spending 20% of time in style invalidation, but now it's
down to <1%.
Both functions schedule HTML event loop processing but that's
unnecessary, because we schedule a rendering task that checks if
style/layout needs an update 60/s anyway.
`Element::ordinal_value` is called for every `li` element in
a list (ul, ol, menu).
Before:
`ordinal_value` iterates through all of the children of the list
owner. It is called once for each element: complexity $O(n^2)$.
After:
- Save the result of the first calculation in `m_ordinal_value`
then return it in subsequent calls.
- Tree modifications are intercepted and trigger invalidation
of the first node's `m_ordinal_value`:
- insert_before
- append
- remove
Results in noticeable performance improvement rendering' large
lists: from 20s to 4s for 20K elements.
When marking a part of the layout tree for rebuild, if the subtree root
that we're marking has an anonymous parent, we now mark from the nearest
non-anonymous ancestor instead.
This ensures that subtrees inside anonymous wrappers don't just get
duplicated (i.e recreated but inserted instead of replaced).
