OWP Storage Team Weekly

[Joshua Bell]

Storage team (SFO/MTV) weekly updates. The Storage team works on APIs like Indexed DB, Cache API, DOM Storage as well as the underpinnings like leveldb, sqlite, blobs, quota, and related components like FileAPI and DataTransfer.

NOTE: the stora...@chromium.org mailing list is now available to non-chromium accounts.

Triage

• Formally handed off to dmurph

Servicification

• Blobs - mek@
• Broke blob data handle thread safety (local patches), then fixed it
  
• Making sure lifetimes work by passing blob handles everywhere
• AppCache - michaeln@
• reviewing CLs for integration w/ network service
• Maybe picking up web request integration next - michaeln@

Memory Reduction

• Stepping up to do profiling and understand leveldb usage - cmumford@
• working w/ SSID on session storage memory reduction - michaeln@, mek@

Task Scheduler

• Got changes in to move WebSQL off of FILE thread in browser - jsbell@
  
• Reviewing quota manager conversion CLs

SQLite

• Roll to 3.20, cleanup - pwnall@ (thx to cmumford@ for reviews)

Cache Storage

• Iterating on devtools live updating design, expecting CL this week - kristipark@
• Little bit of work on cache storage mojoification - cmumford@
  
• Opaque response padding - about 80% of jkarlin's feedback addressed - cmumford@
  

Indexed DB

• Iterating on design/CL for tombstone deletion as a post-close task - dmurph@

Miscellaneous

• Important storage UX - revisiting - dknox@
• Still working through moving XHR/fetch blobs from temp storage to blob storage to work around disk space issues on CrOS - dmurph@

Triage

• Will get to it this week - dmurph@

Servicification

• Blobs - mek@
• Exposed File thread to Blink to integrate Mojo Blobs with the Blob transport system
  
• Pass Blob handles into fetch and Cache Storage IPCs (tedious due to the mix of old-style IPC plus Mojo, and non-onion-souped APIs)
• Pass Blobs via MessagePorts using Mojo bindings (also reduces copying)

• AppCache - michaeln@
• reviewing CLs for integration w/ network service

• Working on web request integration with the network service - michaeln@

• C++ skeleton for Blink implementation - pwnall@

Cache Storage

• Animated DevTools interface (follow-up needed to animate item add/remove) - kristipark@
• Opaque response padding - more tests, CL waiting for feedback - cmumford@
  

Indexed DB

• Iterating on CL for tombstone deletion as a post-close task - dmurph@
• Addressing feedback received on IDB Observers - dmurph@

Miscellaneous

• Still working through moving XHR/fetch blobs from temp storage to blob storage to work around disk space issues on CrOS - dmurph@

• New CMake build config for snappy (fixes non-Chromium users) - pwnall@
