Description youenn fablet 2015-02-02 07:26:32 PST
As per https://streams.spec.whatwg.org/#rs-constructor, the object passed to the ReadableStream constructor may have a start parameter.
This start parameter must be a method that is called when constructing the ReadableStream object.

Was this wrong?

Ditto.

This could probably be PropertyName propertyName = Identifier(exec, identifier);

static inline

How can this be called with m_readableStream == nullptr? Isn't start function a member of the underlaying source and not of readable stream?

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:121
>          return;

I know this is not part of this patch, but it looks weird to me that the underlaying source raises exceptions for construct parameters of the ReadableStream object. Also I wonder if the internal error is supposed to be used also for these kind of errors during constructor. If I understood the spec correctly, the internal error is set when the error function moves the stream to errored state. I think this arguments parsing should be done in constructJSReadableStream() returning directly throwVMError with a TypeError in this cases. That also prevents that a ReadableStreamJSSource is created just to return an error. If the parsing is done before, the constructor might receive the JSObject s parameter.

You don't need argumentValue and argument, you can use exec->argument(0).getObject() directly.

Same here, I wonder if this should prevent the stream from being created, or if this should raise an exception when start is called. And the same for the other functions when they are implemented. If we want to handle that before the stream is created, I think we could do that in the create() method, and pass start, pull and cancel functions as parameters of the constructor, or don't create the object and throw exceptions in case of errors. I also wonder why the underlaying object needs to be refcounted, It's created at the ReadableStream construction and the only instance is always owned only by the ReadableStream.

I'm not sure I understand this. enqueue, close and error functions are members of ReadableStream, not the underlaying source, right? why are they created here then? Shouldn't they be created by ReadableStream and passed as arguments to start? Couldn't we call ReadableStream::start() instead of source->start()? Then the ReadableStream would call source->start() passing the 3 functions as arguments. If the source has a start function it will be called. If we can do that, maybe the underlaying source doesn't need know about the ReadableStream and we don't need the setStream, nor getJSReadableStream.

Yes. The spec says that promises should be resolved with undefined and we were resolving them wrong before.

No, it can't. We had it like that before and the Identified object was going out of scope after the assignment and getting the slot could end up in a crash. Checked it with gdb, that's why I rewrote it like that.

This doesn't mean that. We are there checking the passed thisValue and if that thisValue is undefined, then we pass m_readableStream as this object when invoking the function.

This is a pending subject that we have. IMHO, we should continue improving the way we manage errors among the three worlds, JS, ReadableStream and the source.

Sorry, but I didn't understand you comment. What we are doing now is bailing out with an exception, meaning that the JSRS is not created, when the source finds any of those problems. And I don't think we can do that any other way because both objects are entangled, meaning that the spec says that we have to do somethings in some order, but we try to keep separated as much as possible the JSC world from the pure WebCore world. That's why we have to do things in a certain order.

I am trying to know now if there is any case were the source can live by itself. I could give this a try, but it might happen that I should get to the RefCounted in case of native sources, like the XHR one, that we have developed but didn't push to bugzilla yet.

Doing that would mean adding a lot of JSC code to the ReadableStream class, which we try to make as JSC unaware as possible.

It might be difficult to see it now, but this source is not the only one, we have right now working the XHR adaptation, which has a completely different source and it doesn't have anything to do with JS one, neither it needs all that JS adaptation, just to create a JSReadableStream with a custom XHR source providing the streams interface.

We decided to create this architecture and make the ReadableStreamJSSource because it makes sense from the architecture POV as the ReadableStream performs the common actions needed for JS and native sources and we create different sources for different things, like the XHR and the JS one, that is invoked only when we create a ReadableStream manually, but using the JS contructor. In the case of XHR, for example, you don't need any of this, just create the XMLHttpRequest object, set the response to "stream" type and get it with .response() (these api calls might not be accurate).

Ok, just curious, the changelog doesn't explain why this change, and it looked unrelated to the start implementation.

Right, I understood it wrongly, but still, callFunction is never called with a thisValue, or am I wrong again?

Just looked weird to me saving the type errors that happen while constructing the JS objects in an m_error, instead of just throwing the exceptions.

I'm not talking about changing the order things happen, just moving the code where it logically belongs, but you know the spec better than me.

What's the XHR source? could you point me to the spec and code you have for that?

I didn't know there were more kind of underlaying sources, I'll check the spec again.

Yep, it should go in the changelog.

At the time we developed the XHR source, it was supposed for streams to be integrated into XHR. The spec that was used has now been deprecated, although it is already implemented in other browsers.
It seems the overall direction is to add streams support for the replacement of XHR, the fetch API.

In any case, streams can either have JS sources/consumers or native sources/consumers: XHR/Fetch, media stream...
That is why we are trying hard to keep ReadableStream as JSC unaware as possible.
Similar strategies have been used for other promise-related APIs in WebKit by the way.

Adding missing include for mac builds

I only had time for a quick review. Here is some comment:

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:89
> +    callOnMainThread(std::bind(WTF::move(m_closedCallback)));

I would ASSERT(!m_closedCallback) after this since keeping the promise alive would be pretty bad.

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:96
> +    if (m_state == State::Closed)
> +        resolveClosedCallback();

I don't get why you resolve immediately on closed().

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:104
> +        m_state = State::Closed;
> +        resolveReadyCallback();
> +        resolveClosedCallback();

Shouldn't this be:
    resolveReadyCallback();
    m_state = State::Closed;
    resolveClosedCallback();

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:111
> +    if (!m_readyCallback)

Add ASSERT(m_state == State::Waiting)?

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:113
> +    callOnMainThread(std::bind(WTF::move(m_readyCallback)));

I would ASSERT(!m_readyCallback) after this since keeping the promise alive would be pretty bad.

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:120

I don't get why you resolve immediately on ready().

Good catch.

It is a bit weird to use undefined but that's what the spec says...

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:113
> +    m_startFunction.set(exec->vm(), jsUndefined());

I don't get this.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.h:67
> +    JSReadableStream* m_readableStream;

m_readableStream = nullptr;

And you can remove the initialization from the constructor.

Why aren't those typed?

Do you have coverage for reusing the premise object?

You create a new promise every time, which is observable. I am actually unconvinced it is correct.

For example:
    var promise1 = readableStream.ready;
    promise1.then(foobar);
    readableStream.ready === promise1; // Shouldn't this be true? Is it?

I agree on having it on a different patch. Makes sense.

I might not be clear explaining the whole architecture. We have

* JSReadableStream which is the autogenerated class from the IDL bridging from JS to WebCore. There we adapt only the methods declared in the IDL file, including the constructor. A JS created stream might use all methods including the constructor (actually the constructor is compulsory in this case) and a native stream might use all methods but it won't use the constructor as the object will be constructed somewhere else, say XMLHttpRequest.response().

* ReadableStream implements the common parts of the algorithm for native and JS sources, it delegates some parts of the code on the ReadableStreamSource abstract class.

* ReadableStreamJSSource, inherits ReadableStreamSource and implements the specific parts of the spec that have to do only with JS, say invoking JS methods, preparing exceptions to be launched, etc. In this class we have to adapt data and operations between ReadableStream and JSReadableStream, so that ReadableStream stays as JSC unaware as possible and we can put things directly to JSReadableStream. That's why sometimes JSReadableStream deals directly with the source, because of the data we don't want to store in ReadableStream.

I hope to have been a bit clearer now and please do not hesitate to put in doubt any decission or ask any questions. That's what we are here for :)

Imagine a code like:

rs.close();
rs.closed().then(whatever);

We might have already transitioned to "closed" before the promise was requested and if we don't do this, the promise might end up unresolved. Btw, by immediatelly resolving we understand here that we call the resolve function, but it is deferred to the main thread.

The spec says that when closing we have to fulfill both ready and closed. We want that the state is already marked as closed while we resolve the ready callback because the client has to get the proper state. That's why semantically, IMHO, it is better this way.

Why did I write "semantically"? Because it doesn't matter as promises are resolved asynchronously so the state will be the right one when the promise is actually going to be fulfilled.

I don't think we can, because I am almost positive that we have to resolve any pending ready promises in other states too, for example when we move to errored.

Same case as for closed.

No need to tell me :) actually there is a reference test checking these things O_O

We initialize all these functions to undefined and after that we overwrite then with the corresponding value given in the constructor if any, but it is good to have them like that to check later if the value is undefined, that means that it wasn't set by the constructor and we have to go with the spec default behavior.

Very interesting comment. The spec speaks about storing the promises in slots and, they are returned when requested and replaced when they are resolved. So I conclude your assumption is right. We'll look at this.

It is, I don't remember more places, but we have at least the strategy methods:

unsigned ReadableStreamJSSource::chunkSize(ExecState* exec, JSValue chunk);
bool ReadableStreamJSSource::shouldApplyBackpressure(unsigned queueSize);

Actually I had to do this when I wrote one of the test using a different strategy that was created as an object with its attributes that were never reached with the former implementation we were passing undefined there.

From my POV it is a trade off between architecture and spec and it is not easy :)

enqueue, close and error are one of those things that only make sense in the JS world with JS based streams and that's why given our arch, we create them in the ReadableStreamJSSource to adapt code from the ReadableStream. They don't make sense in a native source, for example.

Good point, I created bug 141650 to capture that. It seems to be best handled separately, especially if we handle that at JSReadableStream level.

Well, we are not able to test that behaviour without adding some functionality that triggers promise resolution.
We can split this in two bugs, but we would end up changing code twice.

I would prefer keeping the fix here, as we would have the functionality right from the beginning, and the tests will be marked passed.
But I am ok if you prefer to have it as two patches to get a easier/better review.

Quick review. Nothing bad so far, some comments:

> Source/WebCore/ChangeLog:9

" , " -> ", "

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:34

Let's fix the headers:
    #include "ReadableStreamJSSource.h"
should be just after
    #include "config.h"

All the other includes should be together.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:130

No need for this FIXME, notImplemented() has the same information.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:154
> +    // FIXME: Implement this method.

No need for this.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.h:64
> +    JSC::JSValue callFunction(JSC::ExecState*, JSC::JSValue /* jsFunction */, JSC::JSValue /* thisValue */, const JSC::ArgList&);

There should be no need to comment the argument names here.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.h:77
> +    JSC::Strong<JSC::JSFunction> m_enqueueFunction;
> +    JSC::Strong<JSC::JSFunction> m_closeFunction;

I am quite confused why you hold strongly onto those.

It looks to me like they could be created on the fly when calling the function and never needed again.

Can you explain?

> LayoutTests/ChangeLog:9

IMHO you should have two more test:
-Test what is the "this" argument in the start function.
-Check the types of enqueue, close, error

> LayoutTests/streams/readablestream-start.html:23

hehe

> LayoutTests/streams/readablestream-start.html:28

> +                throw mashedError;

Good test!

Enqueue and close are passed as parameters to the pull function, which may be called several times.
We could create error on the fly given how we plan to handle pull promise resolution.
I will add a FIXME so that we can revisit that case later on.

The types of enqueue, close and error are already checked.

Note that having the argument names is good here because it is not clear what the arguments are from their type.

My comment was referring to the "/* */", those should be unnecessary, the name will just be ignored by the compiler.

Who call them several times? JavaScript?

If JavaScript holds onto them, they will have a strong reference on the heap or the JS Stack. There should be no need to keep a strong reference in your object.

I see. I used to "/* */" because of some check-webkit-style warnings I got in the past.
I prefer then re-adding the names, this may be done at cq time I guess.

Pull is called by the readable stream.
For instance, JavaScript may call ReadableStream.read. 
The stream then returns the first value in the queue.
Then the stream calls UnderlyingSource.pull if data in the queue is low.

The spec currently mandates this approach but this could be done differently.
I would tend to go forward with the current approach and in parallel discuss this with streams spec editors.

Partial review. I'll have to look into the scope of the JSLockHolder.

I think there is a bug with the callback function names.

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:96
> +    if (callType == CallTypeNone)

I am confused by this, when would the call type not be CallTypeHost?

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:136
> +    return JSFunction::create(exec->vm(), exec->callee()->globalObject(), 1, ASCIILiteral("CreateReadableStreamEnqueueFunction"), enqueueReadableStreamFunction);

The spec says the functions are anonymous. Isn't the 4th argument the name?
I think you are supposed to pass String() for the name here.

I guess you do not have tests for that, time to add one :)

> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/ReadableStreamJSSource.cpp:148
> +    return JSFunction::create(exec->vm(), exec->callee()->globalObject(), 0, ASCIILiteral("CreateReadableStreamCloseFunction"), closeReadableStreamFunction);

Ditto.

> +    return JSFunction::create(exec->vm(), exec->callee()->globalObject(), 1, ASCIILiteral("CreateReadableStreamErrorFunction"), errorReadableStreamFunction);

Shame we have to do this, I wish NativeFunction was a std::function.
We would have to teach the JIT how to invoke closure. :(

Unless we have a reason to keep this object alive, let's change this right now.

It is likely the implementation of start() will not hold onto the error function. Let's not hold a JSCell alive for a function we don't need.

> LayoutTests/streams/readablestream-start.html:16

Could you generalize this to the other two arguments if that's not already covered elsewhere?
You should test length and name on every one of them too.

As of JSLockHolder scope, we could add it after the startFunction.isFunction test.
We add it in the start method and not within the callFunction method as it is needed 
before creating JS functions which will happen for resolving start promise and the error function wrapper as well.

Right, it is no longer needed since we check that jsFunction is a function.

Ah!!!
The function length should also be checked in the same test I guess.

Yep, a FIXME may be good...

I think the FIXME would not been seen since the part to change is in JSC.

If you want to start hacking on JSC, that could be a nice little project to prototype :)

Is this standard? The spec says InvokeOrNoop on start.

We could probably initialize m_source as an empty object if there is no given JS object to ReadableStreamJSSource constructor.
That would remove that test and similar tests for pull and cancel.
Will add a FIXME at cq time if there is no further change envisioned.

We store m_errorFunction as it will be reused as start/pull promise rejection callback.

Some minor comments.

Reading through the spec of ReadableStream's constructor: isn't one of the big use case a start function that return a promise?
I am a bit confused by the spec to be honest :). Do you know where is the definition of "Resolve [arbitrary object] as a promise"?

> Source/WebCore/Modules/streams/ReadableStream.cpp:63
> +    // FIXME: Implement pulling data

notImplemented();

You need tests making sure none of them are observable.

> LayoutTests/streams/readablestream-start.html:33
> +    var rs = new ReadableStream(source);

Do you already have tests passing a object without start method as the source?
-undefined as the source?
-null as the source?
-no source?

It would also be good to have a test with the start function somewhere on the prototype chain of the source object.

Probably, although pull can also return a promise.

I think it is under standardization.

It is part of the first test in streams/readablestream-start.html

There are tests for 1 and 4, but not 2 and 3. I will add them.
Ok also for adding a test on start function being on the prototype chain.

Should those really be on the object itself and not the prototype?
The spec is crazy vague about the definition of ReadableStreamController.

Can you please ask the working group to have a normative definition of the ReadableStreamController?
