From 498e05a48dfade51ef44a1b5ed648bd2dfc3c6f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "abarth@chromium.org" Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2010 19:57:49 +0000 Subject: Add stub PPAPI for launching NaCl's sel_ldr process. In ArcticSea, we're going to load the NaCl plugin in the render process. The NaCl plugin needs to create a sel_ldr process to host the NEXE, but when the plugin lives inside the render process, the plugin is sandboxed, so it can't create a process. This API instructs the browser to launch a sel_ldr process and wire up a bunch of IMC channels between the plugin and the new process. In reality, the sel_ldr process is just chrome.exe run with a command line flag that causes it to call NaClMain instead of BrowserMain or RendererMain. Previously, NaCl accomplished this task by smuggling a function pointer (cast as an int) from render_process_impl to the NPAPI NaCl plugin. Rather than use the same approach again, we're creating a legit way for the PPAPI plugin to ask the browser to spawn the sel_ldr process. In BalticSea, we'll likely run the NaCl plugin out-of-process (e.g., in a PPAPI process). In that case, the plugin can just host the NEXE internally, and we'll be able to remove this interface.
