Use StringView.split() instead of String.split() in some places to avoid intermediary allocation of substrings.

We can do this much more efficiently by either copying and pasting the body of the protocolIs(const String&, const char*) function or using templates to make a StringView version. Also there is a very strange FIXME above protocolIs(const String&, const char*) that says: "Why is this different than protocolIs(StringView, const char*)?'

The FIXME should go. > Source/WebCore/platform/graphics/avfoundation/CDMPrivateMediaSourceAVFObjC.mm:107 > + StringView keySystem = m_cdm->keySystem(); This looks unsafe. What type does m_cdm->keySystem() return? If it returns String then this is unsafe. If it returns const String& then this is safe. I worry that someone will change it from returning const String& to returning String and then make this code invalid. Hard to write this so it’s obviously safe. Think of StringView like a raw pointer. There’s always the question of why the StringView is still good after you initialize it from the result of an expression that might involve a temporary String. Generally we should avoid local variables of type StringView that are initialized from a temporary String or look like they might be. Arguments of type StringView don’t have this problem, many cases of local variable StringView that are not initialized from temporary Strings are fine, and various other idioms are OK. > Source/WebCore/svg/SVGToOTFFontConversion.cpp:1476 > + auto segments = StringView(m_fontFaceElement->attributeWithoutSynchronization(SVGNames::font_weightAttr)).split(' '); > + for (auto segment : segments) { I would have written this; auto& weight = m_fontFaceElement->attributeWithoutSynchronization(SVGNames::font_weightAttr); for (auto segment: StringView(weight).split(' ')) { Makes the object lifetimes more obviously correct.

One option, though I am not 100% sure this would work, would be to change HashMap::get from: MappedPeekType get(const KeyType&) const; to template<typename K> MappedPeekType get(K&&) const; And make get call m_impl.lookup<IdentityTranslator>(std::forward<K>(k)) (or some such). I would probably make sense to also do something like static_assert that HashTraits::hash(k) is invokable, to make errors slightly more clear.

Alternatively, writing a specific Translator just for StringView might be the most straightforward and clear way to go.

I considered writing a HashTranslator-specific to the use case in this code, case-insensitive hashing a of a StringView. I chose not to take this approach because it would duplicate code in ASCIICaseInsensitiveHash. I also spoke to Anders Carlsson yesterday (04/19) about these approaches as well as the pecular code in question and asked for suggestions. In this discussion I brought up the idea Sam Weinig mentioned in comment #8 about making HashMap::get() take a templated type as its parameter instead of const KeyType&. Anders felt this was error prone and could lead to subtle bugs where we may return the wrong result. Another idea is to pass ASCIICaseInsensitiveHash for "typename ARIARoleMap::IdentityTranslatorType" in the above code or to define an alias for it, maybe ASCIICaseInsensitiveStringViewHash. At the time I wrote the patch I chose against these approaches because I was worried that ASCIICaseInsensitiveStringViewHash could get out-of-sync with the hash function defined for the ARIA role map (ASCIICaseInsensitiveHash). Maybe there is nothing to worry? > > Source/WebCore/accessibility/AccessibilityObject.cpp:3080 > > + if (Element* idElement = treeScope.getElementById(idName.toAtomicString())) > > Could consider optimizing this by using toExistingAtomicString; if that > function exists and we would also have to make sure null string is handled > properly. > > Could also use auto* here instead of Element*. > Will use auto*. > > Source/WebCore/platform/URL.cpp:1149 > > + return protocolIs(url.toStringWithoutCopying(), "javascript"); > > This is an inefficient algorithm, allocating memory every time.

I agree assuming that CDM::keySystem() will always returns a const String& is error prone. I will change this code to read: String keySystem = m_cdm->keySystem(); // Local copy for StringView usage StringView keySystemStringView { keySystem }; ASSERT(validKeySystemRE().match(keySystem) >= 0); ... (I am open to name suggestions). And will update the remainder of the code in this function to use keySystemStringView, as applicable. > Hard to write this so it’s obviously > safe.

If there was no null check we would likely not name the type because we wouldn’t need a local variable. The code is: look up the entry in the hash map return the value from inside that entry (unless there is none) I don’t think that the exact type used for entries in the hash map is relevant to understanding the code is correct.

I meant to remove this comment as it is out-of-date. Removing the comment is good. Using an efficient algorithm is important in the long run; we don’t want to allocate memory just to compare a URL against a protocol.

Alternatively, we could add an additional overload to getElementById() that takes a StringView, since getElementById() already has the optimization for String, where it does nothing, if an atomic string cannot be made. That way, we could avoid exposing the fact knowledge that if an atomic string is not present, there can be no associated element. But maybe we already expose that fact for the bindings. Either way, we should add toExistingAtomicString() to StringView since it will no doubt be useful elsewhere.

I will update this patch to add an overload of TreeScope::getElementById() that takes a StringView and is implemented in terms of StringView::toExistingAtomicString(). Notice that both the String and AtomicString constructors take a RefPtr<AtomicStringImpl> (returned by StringView::toExistingAtomicString()). I chose to also add the overload to avoid the need to disambiguate between TreeScope::getElementById(const String&) and TreeScope::getElementById(const AtomicString&) at the call site. Therefore the code at the call site will read: ... if (Element* idElement = treeScope.getElementById(idName)) ...

The one call site for this function calls stripLeadingAndTrailingHTMLSpaces before calling this function. This is peculiar because it means that leading HTML spaces on the entire value are ignored, but not spaces after semicolons. I am not sure that is actually the desired behavior. Also, stripping trailing spaces is pointless; such spaces will be ignored anyway. We might want to do that stripping of leading spaces on each substring before calling protocolIsJavaScript. Note that stripLeadingAndTrailingHTMLSpaces or just stripping leading spaces are natural operations to support on a StringView rather than a String when the result is going to inspected rather than stored. There is no need to allocate a new String for the substring computed after trimming off possible spaces. Generally speaking StringView is excellent for substring operations like this one as long as the substring is not going to be turned back into a String for storage. Worth coming back to and tidying up later.
