The autoplay setting was binary and its default blocked all media,
including muted video, leaving sites that rely on muted autoplay
visibly broken. Replace it with a tri-state user-agent autoplay
policy (allow audio and video, block audio, or block audio and video)
defaulting to allowing only inaudible media to autoplay.
This is enforced through the media element's "allowed to play" check,
so unmuting a muted autoplay or calling `play()` cannot slip audio
past the policy; audible playback is permitted once the document has
been activated by the user. The policy lives in a dedicated
AutoplaySettings consulted from HTMLMediaElement instead of the
Permissions Policy "allowed to use feature" check it was previously
conflated with.
Add an explicit initializer for process-lifetime event loops and use it
for browser, helper service, and utility main loops. This preserves weak
event loop references for cross-thread users while making main thread
loop lifetime independent of normal program teardown.
Replace the local substring matcher with the adblock-rust engine exposed
through the dedicated content blocker Rust FFI. Keep the previous engine
when a replacement list cannot be parsed.
Pass shared list buffers directly into Rust instead of building a
duplicate C++ vector of lines first. Generate cosmetic CSS through the
Rust matcher, including generic class and id selectors collected from
shadow-including descendants.
Keep a supplemental index for generic cosmetic selector-list rules.
adblock-rust indexes these rules under the first class or id token only,
so also key them by later simple class and id selectors in the list.
Update ContentBlocker coverage for rule options, exceptions, third-party
checks, blob and file URLs, invalid list replacement, filtering toggles,
cosmetic CSS, and generic selector-list cosmetics.
Rename the local content blocking implementation and its tests from
ContentFilter to ContentBlocker while keeping the existing substring
matcher backend and behavior.
Update the WebContent IPC method, WebView option names, debug toggle,
and default config file name to use content blocker terminology.
The bytecode interpreter only needed the running execution context,
but still threaded a separate Interpreter object through both the C++
and asm entry points. Move that state and the bytecode execution
helpers onto VM instead, and teach the asm generator and slow paths to
use VM directly.
WebView::FontPlugin was the only implementation of the abstract
FontPlugin base class. Its dependencies (LibGfx, LibCore) are
already visible to LibWeb.
Remove the virtual dispatch by making FontPlugin concrete and
absorbing the WebView::FontPlugin implementation directly.
EventLoopPluginSerenity was the only implementation of the abstract
EventLoopPlugin base class. Its methods simply wrapped Core::EventLoop
calls with GC function unwrapping.
Remove the virtual dispatch by making EventLoopPlugin concrete and
absorbing the EventLoopPluginSerenity implementation directly.
While some of the changes are due to syntax and have no effect on
the functionality, others are more important.
The major changes are
- Use Painter instead of now removed DeprecatedPainter
- Remove the need of LibArchive by using Java's native zip support
- Have a proper C++23 compiler by updating NDK to r29 beta 2
- Store user data and config in an user accessible way
- Update AGP to 8.11 and update compile target to SDK level 35
