Since the ABI on this platform just uses the ARM procedure call
standard, which is the same standard Unix uses, we can just
copy-and-paste everything, with some adjustments to the assembly code to
compile properly.
In many places, nsTArray::IndexOf is followed by accessing that element
(hopefully with `Elements() + index`, which skips unnecessary bounds checks.)
But this pattern introduces operations that could be avoided:
- IndexOf converts the address of the found element into an index,
- The caller must test for a special `NoIndex` value,
- On success, accesses convert that index back into the original address.
This patch introduces new 'ApplyIf...' functions that combine all these
operations in a more efficient ensemble: If the sought element is found, it is
passed by reference to a given callable object (usually a lambda); if not
found, another callable is invoked.
Depending on what they need, the first callable may take one of these parameter
lists: (), (size_t), (maybe-const elem_type&), (size_t, maybe-const elem_type&).
On top of removing the pointer->index->pointer operations in most cases,
invoking callables directly from ApplyIf is safer, as the array is guaranteed to
be untouched at this time.
Also, being templates taking function objects, in most cases the compiler should
be able to inline and optimize the search and its callables' code.
This patch gives example uses in nsTArray::Contains, and in
FrameProperties::GetInternal, SetInternal.
And FrameProperties::Has now calls Contains, which is more efficient because
the former code would compute an index (or NoIndex), and then convert that index
to a bool; whereas the new code directly produces a bool from within the search
algorithm.

As initially implemented, nsITLSServerSocket by default enabled the use of the
TLS session cache provided by NSS. However, no consumers of nsITLSServerSocket
actually used it. Because it was an option, though, PSM had to jump through some
hoops to a) make it work in the first place and b) not have NSS panic on
shutdown. Furthermore, it meant increased memory usage for every user of Firefox
(and again, nothing actually used the feature, so this was for naught).
In bug 1479918, we discovered that if PSM shut down before Necko, NSS could
attempt to acquire a lock on the session cache that had been deleted, causing a
shutdown hang. We probably should make it less easy to make this mistake in NSS,
but in the meantime bug 1479918 needs uplifting and this workaround is the
safest, most straight-forward way to achieve this.

This patch adds simple stubs to convert between the nsISimpleEnumerator
iteration protocol and the JS iteration protocol.
Each iterable object is required to have an @@iterator method which returns an
object implementing the iterator protocol. The later objects, by convention,
also have such a method which returns the object itself.
This patch adds both a @@iterator() and entries() methods to
nsISimpleEnumerator. The former returns an iterator which returns plain
nsISupports objects. The latter accepts an IID and queries each element to
that IID before returning it. If any element fails to query, the error is
propagated to the caller.

The nsISimpleEnumerator contract specifies that GetNext() returns

Correctness improvements:
* UTF errors are handled safely per spec instead of dangerously truncating
strings.
* There are fewer converter implementations.
Performance improvements:
* The old code did exact buffer length math, which meant doing UTF math twice
on each input string (once for length calculation and another time for
conversion). Exact length math is more complicated when handling errors
properly, which the old code didn't do. The new code does UTF math on the
string content only once (when converting) but risks allocating more than
once. There are heuristics in place to lower the probability of
reallocation in cases where the double math avoidance isn't enough of a
saving to absorb an allocation and memcpy.
* Previously, in UTF-16 <-> UTF-8 conversions, an ASCII prefix was optimized
but a single non-ASCII code point pessimized the rest of the string. The
new code tries to get back on the fast ASCII path.
* UTF-16 to Latin1 conversion guarantees less about handling of out-of-range
input to eliminate an operation from the inner loop on x86/x86_64.
* When assigning to a pre-existing string, the new code tries to reuse the
old buffer instead of first releasing the old buffer and then allocating a
new one.
* When reallocating from the new code, the memcpy covers only the data that
is part of the logical length of the old string instead of memcpying the
whole capacity. (For old callers old excess memcpy behavior is preserved
due to bogus callers. See bug 1472113.)
* UTF-8 strings in XPConnect that are in the Latin1 range are passed to
SpiderMonkey as Latin1.
New features:
* Conversion between UTF-8 and Latin1 is added in order to enable faster
future interop between Rust code (or otherwise UTF-8-using code) and text
node and SpiderMonkey code that uses Latin1.

Entry storage allocation now occurs on the first lookupForAdd()/put()/putNew().
This removes the need for init() and initialized(), and matches how
PLDHashTable/nsTHashtable work. It also removes the need for init() functions
in a lot of types that are built on top of mozilla::Hash{Map,Set}.
Pros:
- No need for init() calls and subsequent checks.
- No memory allocated for empty tables, which are not that uncommon.
Cons:
- An extra branch in lookup() and lookupForAdd(), but not in put()/putNew(),
because the existing checkOverloaded() can handle it.
Specifics:
- Construction now can take a length parameter.
- init() is removed. Explicit length-setting, when necessary, now occurs in the
constructors.
- initialized() is removed.
- capacity() now returns zero when the entry storage is absent.
- lookupForAdd() is no longer `const`, because it can instantiate the storage,
which requires modifications.
- lookupForAdd() can now return an invalid AddPtr in two cases:
- old: hashing failure (due to OOM in the hasher)
- new: OOM while instantiating entry storage
The existing failure handling paths for the old case work for the new case.
- clear(), finish(), and clearAndShrink() are replaced by clear(), compact(),
and reserve(). The old compactIfUnderloaded() is also removed.
- Capacity computation code is now in its own functions, bestCapacity() and
hashShift(). setTableSizeLog2() is removed.
- uint32_t is used throughout for capacities, instead of size_t, for
consistency with other similar values.
- changeTableSize() now takes a capacity instead of a deltaLog2, and it can now
handle !mTable.
Measurements:
- Total source code size is reduced by over 900 lines. Also, lots of existing
lines got shorter (i.e. two checks were reduced to one).
- Executable size barely changed, down by 2 KiB on Linux64. The extra branches
are compensated for by the lack of init() calls.
- Speed changed negligibly. The instruction count for Bench_Cpp_MozHash
increased from 2.84 billion to 2.89 billion but any execution time change was
well below noise.
This gcc 4.9 workaround (from bug 1377351) is no longer needed because Firefox currently requires gcc 6.1 or later (as of bug 1444274).

We want to be able to enter the Realm we were in when the callback was created
before calling it, but if the callback stores a cross-compartment wrapper we
don't really have a good way to find that Realm. So we store it explicitly by
storing a global when the callback is created.
The changes to the constructor signatures to use JSObject* instead of

Summary:
This is a streamlined version of perfecthash.py from xpcom/reflect/xptinfo.
There are a few major changes here:
Instead of providing '(key, value)' pairs to the constructor, callers provide a
list of 'entries'. An optional 'key' parameter allows overriding the function
used to get an entry's key. The default behaviour is as before, destructuring a
(key, value) tuple.
Keys can now be anything which supports the 'memoryview' protocol with 1-byte
elements, rather than being forced to be a 'bytearray'. This allows passing in
types such as bytestrings.
A new 'cxx_codegen' method is now exposed which generates a series of
fully-contained C++ declarations to perform entry lookups. It is possible to
override many parts of this codegen to make it the best fit for your component.
PerfectHash remembers the 'key' function, meaning lookup methods automatically
verify a valid key was passed in, and return 'None' otherwise.

Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D2114
Summary:
This patch adds support for the `Sequence<T>` type. This is largely a
straightforward type propagation patch, but there are a few notable things:
1. We allow `[iid_is(x)] Sequence<nsQIResult>`, so Sequence can be Dependent.
2. `Sequence<T>` is reflected into C++ as a `nsTArray<T>`, which is different
than WebIDL's `mozilla::dom::Sequence<T>` type. This decision was made for
general ergonomics reasons, as `nsTArray<T>` is more prevailent throughout
the codebase, and lengths in this case cannot be controlled by content, as
XPConnect is only exposed to Chrome JS.
3. Owned pointers in `Sequence<T>` are not reflected as their owned
counterparts. For example, `Sequence<nsISupports>` is reflected as
`nsTArray<nsISupports*>` rather than `nsTArray<RefPtr<nsISupports>>`. This
was done to avoid depending on `RefPtr<T>` and `T*` having the same
in-memory representation, however if that is considered an acceptable
dependency, it would be nice to support that.
4. We also don't reflect singly-owned pointers as their owned counterparts. For
example, `nsTArray<nsIIDPtr>` would be reflected as `nsTArray<nsIID*>`
rather than `nsTArray<mozilla::UniquePtr<nsIID>>`. If we are willing to
depend on `mozilla::UniquePtr<T>`'s in-memory representation, we could also
do this, however.
5. There are no restrictions on what types can appear inside of a `Sequence<T>`
or what can appear inside an `[array] T`. We may want to add restrictions
either at the xpidl level or in XPConnect.

of these three types. It's a bit of a mess.
This patch introduces mozilla::HashNumber, and redefines PLDHashNumber and
js::HashNumber as synonyms. It also changes HashFunctions.h to use
mozilla::HashNumber throughout instead of uint32_t.
This leaves plenty of places that still use uint32_t that should use
mozilla::HashNumber or one of its synonyms, but I didn't want to tackle that
now.
The patch also:
- Does similar things for the constants defining the number of bits in each
hash number type.
- Moves js::HashNumber from Utility.h to HashTable.h, which is a better spot
for it. (This required changing the signature of ScrambleHashCode(); that's
ok, it'll get moved by the next patch anyway.)

Everything that goes in a PLDHashtable (and its derivatives, like
nsTHashtable) needs to inherit from PLDHashEntryHdr. But through a lack
of enforcement, copy constructors for these derived classes didn't
explicitly invoke the copy constructor for PLDHashEntryHdr (and the
compiler didn't invoke the copy constructor for us). Instead,
PLDHashTable explicitly copied around the bits that the copy constructor
would have.
The current setup has two problems:
1) Derived classes should be using move construction, not copy
construction, since anything that's shuffling hash table keys/entries
around will be using move construction.
2) Derived classes should take responsibility for transferring bits of
superclass state around, and not rely on something else to handle
that.
The second point is not a huge problem for PLDHashTable (PLDHashTable
only has to copy PLDHashEntryHdr's bits in a single place), but future
hash table implementations that might move entries around more
aggressively would have to insert compensation code all over the place.
Additionally, if moving entries is implemented via memcpy (which is
quite common), PLDHashTable copying around bits *again* is inefficient.
Let's fix all these problems in one go, by:
1) Explicitly declaring the set of constructors that PLDHashEntryHdr
implements (and does not implement). In particular, the copy
constructor is deleted, so any derived classes that attempt to make
themselves copyable will be detected at compile time: the compiler
will complain that the superclass type is not copyable.
This change on its own will result in many compiler errors, so...
2) Change any derived classes to implement move constructors instead
of copy constructors. Note that some of these move constructors are,
strictly speaking, unnecessary, since the relevant classes are moved
via memcpy in nsTHashtable and its derivatives.
This new id is added in the PerformanceInfo data and helps consumers distinguish
counters.

Summary:
This more closely matches the C++ names, and reflects the fact that the
reflected type is not WebIDL's mozilla::dom::Sequence. The reasoning behind this
type difference is for ergonomics, due to xpidl only being exposed to internal
JS code.

Summary:
This is done so we can use Array as the name for the new nsTArray-based
type, rather than having to come up with a new name.
LegacyArray was chosen as the [array] attribute is now effectively deprecated,
and we'd like to remove it ASAP.

This should make it more clear which types have which behaviours, and should
make it easier to add new types without forgetting to handle a special case
somewhere.

Bug #: 1475409
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D2114
Summary:
This patch adds support for the `Sequence<T>` type. This is largely a
straightforward type propagation patch, but there are a few notable things:
1. We allow `[iid_is(x)] Sequence<nsQIResult>`, so Sequence can be Dependent.
2. `Sequence<T>` is reflected into C++ as a `nsTArray<T>`, which is different
than WebIDL's `mozilla::dom::Sequence<T>` type. This decision was made for
general ergonomics reasons, as `nsTArray<T>` is more prevailent throughout
the codebase, and lengths in this case cannot be controlled by content, as
XPConnect is only exposed to Chrome JS.
3. Owned pointers in `Sequence<T>` are not reflected as their owned
counterparts. For example, `Sequence<nsISupports>` is reflected as
`nsTArray<nsISupports*>` rather than `nsTArray<RefPtr<nsISupports>>`. This
was done to avoid depending on `RefPtr<T>` and `T*` having the same
in-memory representation, however if that is considered an acceptable
dependency, it would be nice to support that.
4. We also don't reflect singly-owned pointers as their owned counterparts. For
example, `nsTArray<nsIIDPtr>` would be reflected as `nsTArray<nsIID*>`
rather than `nsTArray<mozilla::UniquePtr<nsIID>>`. If we are willing to
depend on `mozilla::UniquePtr<T>`'s in-memory representation, we could also
do this, however.
5. There are no restrictions on what types can appear inside of a `Sequence<T>`
or what can appear inside an `[array] T`. We may want to add restrictions
either at the xpidl level or in XPConnect.

Bug #: 1474369
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D2110
Summary:
This patch allows parsing generic types, such as Sequence<T>, in XPIDL. It does
this by introducing a new type, TypeId, which contains both the name string and
an optional list of generic parameters.
Various places which use the xpidl.py library had to be updated to construct one
of these TypeId objects, as TypeId and `str` are not compatible types.

Bug #: 1474369
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D2109
Summary:
A goal of the Sequence<T> work is to allow using more complex types within lists
in XPConnect. For example, we ideally want to support `Sequence<AString>`,
rather than requiring people to use the unergonomic 'wstring' type.
These types require initialization before they can be read into. Currently this
initialization for parameters is directly handled by XPCWrappedNative's
CallMethodHelper object.
This patch introduces a new function to the `xpc` namespace to initialize a
specific value from an uninitialized state to a safe state.

When removing an element that exists in the array, there's no need to
perform extra bounds checks for actually removing the element; the
presence of the element guarantees that we have a valid index and a
valid range to remove. So split RemoveElementsAt into a safe interface
and an unsafe interface, and let RemoveElement call the latter as an
internal optimization. The same logic applies to RemoveElementSorted.
We call RemoveElement depressingly often, so this is a nice little win.
