Bug 185839 – Avoid loading AVFoundation to check supported MIME types if possible

• Component: Media
• Status: ASSIGNED

[Eric Carlson]

Loading AVFoundation to call +[AVURLAssetClass audiovisualMIMETypes] triggers an allocation of more than 2MB. Move the call to the UI process and pass the list of types to each new web process so we can do it once per application instead of once per web process.

How much time does this add to Safari launch on a slow iOS device? Before, we would do this lazily in the web process when we found an extension we didn't know how to handle. Now, you're paying the cost every time. I'm not sure this is an improvement.

Removing r?, this needs to be revised to work in WK1.

So it appears that, as it stands, this patch will break WebKitLegacy, since there's no code path for it to initialize the AVFoundationMIMETypeCache. One idea to circumvent this problem would be to leave the AVFoundationMIMETypeCache implementation as-is, but add a "non-initializing singleton()" accessor that WK2 could use to fill the cache with pre-initialized values.

> Source/WebCore/platform/graphics/avfoundation/objc/ImageDecoderAVFObjC.mm:361
> -    if (!supportsMediaType(MediaType::Video))
> -        return nullptr;
> +    if (AVFoundationMIMETypeCache::singleton().types().contains(mimeType))
> +        return true;

I would change this sightly:

    ContentType type  { mimeType };
    if (!AVFoundationMIMETypeCache::singleton().types().contains(type.contentType()))
        return flase;

That way, if the content-type portion of the MIME isn't an AVFoundation supported type, we don't bother asking the AVURLAsset for something which it's not going to support.

r=me with a general nit. Rather than check whether the m_cache.isEmpty() to see whether it's been initialized, it might be better to have a "bool m_isInitialized" or change m_cache to an std::optional. That way, you can disambiguate between "the list of supported mime types is empty" and "the cache hasn't been initialized yet".
