REGRESSION: MessagePort.postMessage() fails to send transferable objects

Summary REGRESSION: MessagePort.postMessage() fails to send transferable objects

Yann Cabon

Reported 2018-04-02 21:44:35 PDT

Test case: <html> <body> <script> var channel = new MessageChannel(); channel.port1.addEventListener("message", (event) => { console.log("port1: message received"); // data SHOULD defined and containing an ArrayBuffer named buf if (event.data == null) { console.error("message data null!"); return; } var data = event.data; event.target.postMessage({ buf: data.buf }, [data.buf]); }); channel.port2.addEventListener("message", (event) => { console.log("port2: message received"); var data = event.data; console.log(data.buf); }); channel.port1.start(); channel.port2.start(); var arr = new Float64Array(); channel.port2.postMessage({ buf: arr.buffer }, [arr.buffer]); </script> </body> </html> Transferring an ArrayBuffer using MessagePort.postMessage() fails in Safari 11.1. The data in the received event by port1 is null. This used to work in previous stable Safari release.

I'm adding another test case to more represent how we actually setup the MessagePort communication. We spawn a Worker, then when it replies we send him a MessagePort, then the communication between the 2 ports begin. We do this as we handle multiple communication channels, agnostic of where the worker code is actually running. I attached 2 files, The html page that spawn the worker and the worker script.

Otherwise, you can be sure someone will come and simply rebaseline the test if it starts outputing a different value or no value. Since you're using js-test, you can use shouldBe() utility function.

Comment 7 2018-04-05 15:39:07 PDT

It seems that the regression was introduce in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181922 due to `SerializedScriptValue`s being encoded with `toWireData`, which does not include ArrayBuffers (or any other extra data contained in the serialized value for that matter). However, I'm not sure if this is the best approach, and if it's OK to expose the ArrayBufferContents ctor that I had to expose. Also, we should probably throw an error when a SharedArrayBuffer is part of transfer list (similar to what Chrome does).

Maybe checkDidStartDeletion or checkIsDeleting or checkDeletionHasNotBegun. I do not like any of these names, but this is what I came up with at the moment. I suspect we have functions that serve a similar purpose in the codebase. Maybe we can draw inspiration from such code.

Specifically, can we declare a new constructor overload in this file that took all arguments except the std::unique_ptr to the WasmModule and then implement it in the .cpp file such that it forwards to the constructor that takes the std::unique_ptr passing nullptr?

Yes, that's much better. I've updated the patch, thanks!

If so, we should add an ASSERT() for this. If not, then can we avoid instantiating an empty array on line 165? > LayoutTests/workers/message-port.html:40 > +var arr = new Float64Array([Math.PI]); This test is good. It only tests the case of an array with one value. We should also add a test to cover an empty array. Can we test the serialization logic for blob URLs and the data argument in the serialization code?

If not, we should add an assert. When the array is empty it will have size 0. I also tried skipping the malloc in case the array is empty, but unfortunately, that doesn't work since the array is considered neutered if the buffer is null. >> Source/WebCore/bindings/js/SerializedScriptValue.h:172 >> + void* buffer = Gigacage::tryMalloc(Gigacage::Primitive, bufferSize); > > For your consideration I suggest we change the data type of this local from void* to uint8_t*. Then we can remove the static_cast<> below. I tried that, but it failed to compiled. I could have casted it here instead, but that didn't seem better.
