We currently attach HTTP cookie headers from LibWeb within Fetch. This
has the downside that the cookie IPC, and the infrastructure around it,
are all synchronous. This blocks the WebContent process entirely while
the cookie is being retrieved, for every request on a page.
We now attach cookie headers from RequestServer. The state machine in
RequestServer::Request allows us to easily do this work asynchronously.
We can also skip this work entirely when the response is served from
disk cache.
Note that we will continue to parse cookies in the WebContent process.
If something goes awry during parsing. we limit the damage to that
process, instead of the UI or RequestServer.
Also note that WebSocket requests still have cookie headers attached
attached from LibWeb. This will be handled in a future patch.
In the future, we may want to introduce a memory cache for cookies in
RequestServer to avoid IPC altogether as able.
* Remove unnecessary const_casts. These have been here since this was
called LibProtocol, and weren't needed then either.
* Use assign-and-check in if statements more liberally.
If the cache mode is no-store, we must not interact with the cache at
all.
If the cache mode is reload, we must not use any cached response.
If the cache-mode is only-if-cached or force-cache, we are permitted
to respond with stale cache responses.
Note that we currently cannot test only-if-cached in test-web. Setting
this mode also requires setting the cors mode to same-origin, but our
http-test-server infra requires setting the cors mode to cors.
Not super important, but this will match an upcoming ID for stale-while-
revalidate requests. It also would techinically be UB if this ID had
ever overflowed. Let's make it 64-bit while we are here to also avoid
the possibility that it ever will overflow.
The bug fixed here is that in RequestServer's ConnectionFromClient, we
stored the websocket ID as i32, despite it being i64 everywhere else.
Let's make it unsigned while we are here to be consistent with how all
other RS-related IDs will be soon.
The end goal here is for LibHTTP to be the home of our RFC 9111 (HTTP
caching) implementation. We currently have one implementation in LibWeb
for our in-memory cache and another in RequestServer for our disk cache.
The implementations both largely revolve around interacting with HTTP
headers. But in LibWeb, we are using Fetch's header infra, and in RS we
are using are home-grown header infra from LibHTTP.
So to give these a common denominator, this patch replaces the LibHTTP
implementation with Fetch's infra. Our existing LibHTTP implementation
was not particularly compliant with any spec, so this at least gives us
a standards-based common implementation.
This migration also required moving a handful of other Fetch AOs over
to LibHTTP. (It turns out these AOs were all from the Fetch/Infra/HTTP
folder, so perhaps it makes sense for LibHTTP to be the implementation
of that entire set of facilities.)
Instead of wrapping all non-movable members of TransportSocket in OwnPtr
to keep it movable, make TransportSocket itself non-movable and wrap it
in OwnPtr.
This has been a longstanding ergonomic issue with our IPC compiler. Non-
trivial types were previously passed by const&. So if we wanted to avoid
expensive copies, we would have to const_cast and move the data.
We now pass ownership of all transferred data to the client subclasses.
This allows us to remove const_cast from these methods, and allows us to
avoid some trivial expensive copies that we didn't bother to const_cast.
