It has full RenderFrames for the frames it is // responsible for rendering and placeholder objects (i.e., RenderFrameProxies) // for frames rendered by other processes. // // This class is the browser-side host object for the placeholder. Each node in // the frame tree has a RenderFrameHost for the active SiteInstance and a set // of RenderFrameProxyHost objects - one for all other SiteInstances with // references to this frame. The proxies allow us to keep existing window // references valid over cross-process navigations and route cross-site // asynchronous JavaScript calls, such as postMessage. // // For now, RenderFrameProxyHost is created when a RenderFrameHost is swapped // out and acts just as a wrapper. If a RenderFrameHost can be deleted, no // proxy object is created. It is destroyed when the RenderFrameHost is swapped // back in or is no longer referenced and is therefore deleted. // // Long term, RenderFrameProxyHost will be created whenever a cross-site // navigation occurs and a reference to the frame navigating needs to be kept // alive. A RenderFrameProxyHost and a RenderFrameHost for the same SiteInstance // can exist at the same time, but only one will be "active" at a time. // There are two cases where the two objects will coexist: // * When navigating cross-process and there is already a RenderFrameProxyHost // for the new SiteInstance. A pending RenderFrameHost is created, but it is // not used until it commits. At that point, RenderFrameHostManager transitions // the pending RenderFrameHost to the active one and deletes the proxy. // * When navigating cross-process and the existing document has an unload // event handler. When the new navigation commits, RenderFrameHostManager // creates a RenderFrameProxyHost for the old SiteInstance and uses it going // forward. It also instructs the RenderFrameHost to run the unload event // handler and is kept alive for the duration.
