Description Benjamin Poulain 2010-06-17 12:40:13 PDT
WebKit could decode images directly to QPixmap instead of converting from QImage to QPixmap. This has the advantage of reducing memory consumption, because the images do not have to be twice in memory during the conversion.

Concretely, if a decoded image takes 10 mbytes of memory, converting it will currently use 20 mbytes of memory. Using pixmap directy would leave us a 10 mbytes of memory consumption.
Comment 1 Kenneth Rohde Christiansen 2010-06-17 12:47:20 PDT
That would be a really nice change.

Patch

This patch require changes in Qt to reduce the memory usage.

The change also has a side effect if the graphic system is OpenGL. With the patch, a compressed texture can be loaded as an image in WebKit.

To the reviewer, it does not build because 40620 has not landed yet. If it is still not landed tomorrow, I'll do it manually.

Patch

LGTM, cq- as the patch in Qt is not available on gitorious yet and waiting for final review.

A few questions:

 192     else {
 193         QImage img;
 194         const bool imageLoaded = m_reader->read(&img);
 195         if (imageLoaded) {
 196             pixmap = QPixmap::fromImage(img);
 197             pixmapLoaded = true;
 198         }
 199     }

So we do not support animations? gif etc? Can imageCount() be 0?

Add the case "imageCount == 0" thanks to Kenneth's comments on IRC.

The Qt patch will be applied to Qt 4.6 as well? if not we need an ifdef for checking the Qt version.

You can re-set the cq when the patches are in Qt.

Cleared Kenneth Rohde Christiansen's review+ from obsolete attachment 59030 [details] so that this bug does not appear in http://webkit.org/pending-commit.

It will not be applied to 4.6, but that should not be a problem. The previous implementation of QPixmap::loadFromData() uses ImageReader, exactly what we do in ImageReaderQt.

There is a useless conversion between QImage and QPixmap in RGBA32Buffer::zeroFill(). See bug 59242.
Comment 19 Balazs Kelemen 2010-06-21 05:25:19 PDT
Oh, no! It is the attachment, the bug is 40910 :S

Update to take advantage of new APIs in Qt

We added new API to Qt 4.7 in order to do in-place color conversion in the all cases. This patch update WebKit to take advantages of this new API.

r=me, you can set qc+ if this is already in public Qt repo.

WebCore/platform/graphics/qt/ImageDecoderQt.cpp:200
 +          pixmap = QPixmap::fromImage(img);
I believe this function can return a null pixmap if we run out of memory (I've seen this actually on Symbian).

Yep you are right, the pixmap could be null after this call.
I updated the patch to simply abort as soon as we get a null pixmap.
