Open the attached test file What is the expected result? The lines should be wrapped. What happens instead? The lines are not wrapped. Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible. Opening puntuations '(', '{', '{' and closing punctuations ')', ']', '}' should introduce line breaking opportunities in certain contexts, and a too-long line should wrap at some line breaking opportunities.

Comment 1 2010-04-16 00:32:47 PDT

This bug will disappear if I change needsLineBreakIterator() in WebCore/rendering/break_lines.cpp to always return true. That is, abandon all internetExplorerLineBreaksAfterQuestionMarkTable and shouldBreakAfter things and totally use ICU. I'm going to create a patch in this way.

Created attachment 53775 [details] The test case to generate the line breaking matrix The test case can generate the line breaking matrix for all pair of printable ASCII characters (where 0 stands for all digits, and a stands for all letters). The first column of the matrix contains the first characters of the pairs, and the first row contains the second characters of the pairs. A "X" in the matrix means the browser may break the line between the pair.

Created attachment 53916 [details] patch This patch improves the line breaking behavior of WebKit by letting the underlying line breaking library (e.g. ICU) handle the following characters: '-', '(', ')', '[', ']', '{', '}' and soft hyphen.

Comment on attachment 53916 [details] patch Making this change will slow page rendering down quite a bit; we need to measure, but I am pretty sure this is true. Maybe there's another way to achieve this effect without such a significant speed cost.

(In reply to comment #7) > (From update of attachment 53916 [details]) > Making this change will slow page rendering down quite a bit; we need to measure, but I am pretty sure this is true. Maybe there's another way to achieve this effect without such a significant speed cost. The patch is not using the method described in comment #1, but only letting the underlying line breaking library (e.g. ICU) handle the following characters: '-', '(', ')', '[', ']', '{', '}' and soft hyphen, so I guess the performance change will be trivial. Anyway I'll measure the performance change.

Created attachment 62400 [details] Updated patch This patch uses a line breaking table for all printable ASCII characters. It should have comparable performance as the original code. It keeps as much compatibility with the original code.

Comment on attachment 62400 [details] Updated patch > +static const int asciiLineBreakTableFirstChar = '!'; > +static const int asciiLineBreakTableLastChar = 127; Perhaps UChar is a more appropriate type for these.

Is there such a thing as “Internet Explorer 8 compatible mode”? What is it compatible with? Can we just say that this is done for compatibility with that thing? It’s slightly confusing to read about IE8 here and about Firefox above. I suggest putting all the specifics of the table in one place. Here it’s enough to say that we use the lookup table because it’s faster and it has different rules from the Unicode specification. > + if (ch >= asciiLineBreakTableFirstChar && ch <= asciiLineBreakTableLastChar > + && nextCh >= asciiLineBreakTableFirstChar && nextCh <= asciiLineBreakTableLastChar) { > + const unsigned char* tableRow = asciiLineBreakTable[ch - asciiLineBreakTableFirstChar]; > + int nextChIndex = nextCh - asciiLineBreakTableFirstChar; > + unsigned char b = tableRow[nextChIndex / 8]; > + return (b >> (nextChIndex % 8)) & 1; To me, the expression b & (1 << (nextChIndex % 8)) (with a corresponding change to the B macro) is clearer than the one you wrote, but I guess that’s just a matter of personal preference. Have you tested this patch for performance impact?

I guess if there’s no measurable performance regression then it doesn’t matter. I created a test to compare the performance of the following configurations: 1) original code 2) new code with packing 3) new code without packing All configurations are run 1000 times to calculate line breaking opportunities between all adjacent chars in break_lines.cpp itself. The differences among the timings are very small (<5%). > > > +// Line breaking table row for each digit (0-9) > > +#define DI { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 } > > + > > +// Line breaking table row for ascii letters (a-z A-Z) > > +#define AL { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 } > > + > > +#define F 0xFF > > + > > +// Line breaking table for printable ASCII characters.

What is it compatible with? Can we just say that this is done for compatibility with that thing? It’s slightly confusing to read about IE8 here and about Firefox above. I suggest putting all the specifics of the table in one place. Here it’s enough to say that we use the lookup table because it’s faster and it has different rules from the Unicode specification. > Sorry, this was a mistake due to my carelessness.

The differences among the timings are very small (<5%). Thank you for testing! The results are a little vague. Did this register as slower than the original code in your test?

Created attachment 62641 [details] performance test (In reply to comment #15) > Thank you for testing! The results are a little vague. Did this register as slower than the original code in your test? If so, did you test the impact on any page-loading test? > I want to r+ the patch but I still have some concerns about performance. Please answer my question above. Thanks again! Sorry, after investigation I found that yesterday's test results were incorrect because I just called shouldBreakAfter() but didn't let the return values depend on some long-lived variable, so the compiler optimized the whole function out. I modified the test code and run again (CPU 2.4G i5). The test runs 15x5000 loops of each shouldBreakAfter() implementation. break_lines.cpp is used as the input to test line breaking opportunity between each adjacent characters. The results are (first column: calling shouldBreakAfter() only; second column: calling 'isBreakableSpace() || shouldBreakAfter()'): original: 1.972549s 4.934085s new unpacked: 4.302849s 4.680052s new packed: 4.751770s 4.520014s I'm curious about that the second column shows the new implementation is even faster than the original. I can't explain this from the source code. I also briefly read the optimized assembly code, and didn't find the reason. I'm also trying to run page load tests. Hopefully I'll give results tomorrow.

Comment 17 2010-07-27 19:35:45 PDT

I just ran page load test to compare the performance before and after the patch. To compare the performance of line breaking, I selected some URLs from w3.org that contain very long text. The URLs are as below: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/struct/tables.html http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/struct/objects.html http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/interact/forms.html http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/sgml/loosedtd.html http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/appendix/changes.html http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/appendix/notes.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/syndata.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/visuren.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/generate.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/fonts.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/tables.html http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-CSS2-20080411/propidx.html I put a file named w3.pltsuite under directory /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources. The configurations of Page Load Test are: Suite: w3 Web-Kit-only window Don't clear cache Run test 20 times Hide this window during test I repeated 10 times (each repeated 20 times by Page Load Test) of Page Load Test before and after applying the patch. The results are: Before patch After patch Average RMS Average RMS 40.1 38.6 37.6 36.1 37.7 36.3 37.2 35.7 36.4 34.9 36.4 35 39.7 38.1 38.9 37.5 37.4 35.9 36.6 35.1 36.3 34.9 36.4 34.9 36.5 35.0 37.3 35.9 40.5 38.9 36.4 34.9 37.1 35.6 36.4 34.9 36.3 34.8 38.9 37.4 Average: 37.8 36.3 37.21 35.74 I think I can draw the conclusion that the patch has no visible impact on page load time of text-intensive web pages.
