Description Brady Eidson 2019-02-27 15:59:33 PST
Universal links from Google search results pages don't open the app

They do some fancy iframe tricks.

We have a good relaxation to fix it.

It appears that mac-debug EWS saw this before the change was landed, but it didn't get a chance to verify results:
https://webkit-queues.webkit.org/results/11309974

Since these are consistent crashes affecting EWS, we should roll this out if it cannot be fixed quickly.
Comment 10 Brady Eidson 2019-02-28 17:02:25 PST
I'm sure this'll be easy to resolve but I will not be able to do so today.
Comment 11 Brady Eidson 2019-02-28 17:03:56 PST
Actually let me see if I can in the next 10 minutes. Hang on.
Comment 12 Brady Eidson 2019-02-28 17:11:26 PST
Have to build for desktop from scratch. Will check on it when I get home and try to resolve this tonight.

I've been an advocate for a cq+ that waits for EWS clearance to actually land for quite awhile now, and I sometimes forget it doesn't already do it. =/
Comment 14 Brady Eidson 2019-02-28 17:30:41 PST
Bogus assertion.

They are both file:// origins, one with universal access and the other without.

The one without toStrings() to "null"
The one with toStrings() to "file"

Removing the ASSERT until somebody explains to me why it's important (it was added in https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/207871/webkit with no explanation as to why)

https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/207871/webkit is adding the helper routine based on a previous version which was doing string matching.
The ASSERT makes sure that both versions are equivalent.

String matching is useful as this is what origins end up being serialized to, for instance in HTTP headers for CORS.

In this particular case, universal access makes things like CORS a no-problem so this is fine to ignore.

I see value in tracking the differences between the two comparisons and making sure any difference is ok.
I would tend to beef up the ASSERT instead of removing it.

> I would tend to beef up the ASSERT instead of removing it.

What would you recommend here? Retain the ASSERT but exclude file:// origins with universal access?

As is evidenced by the impact this patch had on the tests, the two versions are *not* equivalent.

If they are supposed to be equivalent then the original patch seems wrong.

I'm fine with restoring an ASSERT that is correct, but am unclear on what that ASSERT would look like. (See my comment above!)

I filed bug 195216 to follow up on the ASSERT issue.
