* Split the IPC code into ipc/agl@chromium.org2009-07-221-279/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This splits the ipc code from the common project. The 'common' project pulls in all of webkit, the v8 bindings, skia, googleurl, and a number of other projects which makes it very difficult to deal with especially for external projects wanting just to use some of Chromium's infrastructure. This puts the ipc code into its top-level ipc/ directory with a dependency only on base. The common project depends on the new ipc/ipc.gyp:ipc target so that all projects currently pulling common in to get the IPC code still have it available. This mostly follows agl's pre-gyp attempt to do this which was r13062. Known issues: - Currently a number of projects depend on chrome/chrome.gyp:common in order to use the IPC infrastructure. Rather than fixing all of these dependencies I have made common depend on ipc/ipc.gyp:ipc and added "ipc" to the include_rules section of DEPS so that checkdeps.py doesn't complain. Over time projects that need IPC should depend on the IPC project themselves and dependencies on common removed, although I don't think many projects that need IPC will be able to get away without common currently. - ipc/ipc_message_macros.h still has #include "chrome/common/..." inside of a ipc/ should not refer to files in chrome/... now. I'm not sure how to resolve this since it's really an IDE bug - the named pipe name (windows+linux) and the logging event name (all) + env variable (posix) refer explicitly to 'Chrome' which somewhat hurts the illusion of ipc/ being an independent library. I think this should be examined in a subsequent, much smaller patch. - I've eliminated the IPC.SendMsgCount counter since it was implemented in a way to create a dependency from ipc/ to chrome/common/chrome_counters. This is the same approach that r13062 took. http://codereview.chromium.org/155905 (Patch from James Robinson) git-svn-id: svn://svn.chromium.org/chrome/trunk/src@21342 0039d316-1c4b-4281-b951-d872f2087c98

* POSIX: Rename DescriptorSet to FileDescriptorSetagl@chromium.org2009-02-121-9/+9
| | | | | | | This is just following up on a code review promise. git-svn-id: svn://svn.chromium.org/chrome/trunk/src@9676 0039d316-1c4b-4281-b951-d872f2087c98
* POSIX: Clean up DescriptorSetagl@chromium.org2009-02-121-3/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In general, the IPC Message objects are const and the iterator state is a void* kept by the code which is doing the deserialisation. However, now that we have an array of file descriptors, the index of the next file descriptor is part of the iteration state and is kept /inside/ the Message (in the DescriptorSet). This means that it's a mutable member, which is never too nice and also, since the logging functions want to parse a message multiple times, we've had to turn off returning an error when one runs off the end of the array. Also, the Message copy constructor and assignment function alters the /source/ Message, by stealing all of its descriptors This patch encodes the index of each file descriptor on the wire. So the state is moved from inside the DescriptorSet into the serialised data. Additionally, the DescriptorSet is made into a lazyily created scoped_refptr, solving the problems with copying messages.

* POSIX: Transfer network data using shared memoryagl@chromium.org2009-02-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the long planned support for sharing memory on POSIX by transporting file descriptors. It largely builds on the shared memory cleanup work by jrg. We move FileDescriptor out of chrome/common/file_descriptor_posix.h and into base/file_descriptor_posix.h. Since all that's left in the chrome/common verion is the DescriptorSet, those files are renamed to descriptor_set.[h|cc]. The SharedMemoryHandle on POSIX then becomes a typedef to a FileDescriptor and thus can be serialised over IPC. After that, it's mostly a case of cleaning up those snippets of code which considered SharedMemoryHandles to be scaler values.

* FileDescriptor: passing fds over IPCagl@chromium.org2009-02-071-3/+17
| | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a FileDescriptor object which can be included in IPC messages and will perform the magic needed to pass file descriptors over IPC. After some consideration, Windows will continue to do the current DuplicateHandle tricks.

* WaitableEvent is the replacement for Windows events. Previously in the code, ↵agl@chromium.org2009-01-151-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a HANDLE from CreateEvent was used for signaling, both within a process and across processes. WaitableEvent is the cross platform replacement for this. To convert: * HANDLE -> base::WaitableEvent* * ScopedHandle -> scoped_ptr<base::WaitableEvent> * CreateEvent -> new base::WaitableEvent * SetEvent -> base::WaitableEvent::Signal * ResetEvent -> base::WaitableEvent::Reset * ObjectWatcher -> base::WaitableEventWatcher * WaitForMultipleObjects -> static base::WaitableEvent::WaitMany ObjectWatcher remains for Windows specific code. WaitableEventWatcher has an identical interface save, * It uses WaitableEvents, not HANDLEs * It returns void from StartWatching and StopWatcher, rather than errors. System internal errors are fatal to the address space IMPORTANT: There are semantic differences between the different platforms. WaitableEvents on Windows are implemented on top of events. Windows events work across process and this is used mostly for modal dialog support. Windows events can be duplicated with DuplicateHandle. On other platforms, WaitableEvent works only within a single process. In the future we shall have to replace the current uses of cross-process events with IPCs. BEWARE: HANDLE, on Windows, is a void *. Since any pointer type coerces to void *, you can pass a WaitableEvent * where a HANDLE is expected without any build-time errors.
