Snapshots compiled with sound null-safety enabled require changes to the way in
which isolates are launched. Specifically, the `Dart_IsolateFlags::null_safety`
field needs to be known upfront. The value of this field can only be determined
once the kernel snapshot is available. This poses a problem in the engine
because the engine used to launch the isolate at shell initialization and only
need the kernel mappings later at isolate launch (when transitioning the root
isolate to the `DartIsolate::Phase::Running` phase). This patch delays launch of
the isolate on the UI task runner till a kernel mapping is available. The side
effects of this delay (callers no longer having access to the non-running
isolate handle) have been addressed in this patch. The DartIsolate API has also
been amended to hide the method that could return a non-running isolate to the
caller. Instead, it has been replaced with a method that requires a valid
isolate configuration that returns a running root isolate. The isolate will be
launched by asking the isolate configuration for its null-safety
characteristics.
A side effect of enabling null-safety is that Dart APIs that work with legacy
types will now terminate the process if used with an isolate that has sound
null-safety enabled. These APIs may no longer be used in the engine. This
primarily affects the Dart Convertors in Tonic that convert certain C++ objects
into the Dart counterparts. All known Dart Converters have been updated to
convert C++ objects to non-nullable Dart types inferred using type traits of the
corresponding C++ object. The few spots in the engine that used the old Dart
APIs directly have been manually updated. To ensure that no usage of the legacy
APIs remain in the engine (as these would cause runtime process terminations),
the legacy APIs were prefixed with the `DART_LEGACY_API` macro and the macro
defined to `[[deprecated]]` in all engine translation units. While the engine
now primarily works with non-nullable Dart types, callers can still use
`Dart_TypeToNonNullableType` to acquire nullable types for use directly or with
Tonic. One use case that is not addressed with the Tonic Dart Convertors is the
creation of non-nullable lists of nullable types. This hasn’t come up so far in
the engine.
A minor related change is reworking tonic to define a single library target.
This allows the various tonic subsystems to depend on one another. Primarily,
this is used to make the Dart convertors use the logging utilities. This now
allows errors to be more descriptive as the presence of error handles is caught
(and logged) earlier.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/59879
Cleans up header order/grouping for consistency: associated header, C/C++ system/standard library headers, library headers, platform-specific #includes.
Adds <cstring> where strlen, memcpy are being used: there are a bunch of places we use them transitively.
Applies linter-required cleanups. Disables linter on one file due to included RapidJson header. See https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/65676
This patch does not cover flutter/shell/platform/darwin. There's a separate, slightly more intensive cleanup for those in progress.
We currently use a mix of C standard includes (e.g. limits.h) and their
C++ variants (e.g. climits). This migrates to a consistent style for all
cases where the C++ variants are acceptable, but leaves the C
equivalents in place where they are required, such as in the embedder
API and other headers that may be used from C.
Before this change, when we encounter an unhandles exception,
we see:
```
[00050.147083][37665][67367][klog] ERROR: [ERROR:flutter/shell/common/shell.cc(209)] Dart Error: Unhandled exception:
[00050.147087][37665][67367][klog] INFO: UnimplementedError
```
This doesn't help identify the root cause. Adding stack trace will help
the cause.
* Revert "Do not register UI-related native functions in secondary isolates (#6401)"
This reverts commit 69ae5694de54d2a163743dcec727fcea1c7bc8e1 as it doesn't work when root and secondary isolates run in the same isolate group.
* Confirm it is root isolate that makes UI native calls.
* Fix format, UIDartState reference from Fuchsia source
* No UI isolate check for fuchsia calls
* Fix typo. Remove redundant runtime calls
We believe this may be implicated in a Windows-specific crash during the
Flutter Gallery integration test.

This reverts commit f9b78c5db2bc3087e1793947b11ca643c2d747cf.
This was only necessary when the Engine had to build in multiple buildroots
where the sources where checked out at different paths relative to the
buildroot. This is no longer the case and there are already cases GN rules
have been written that mix and match variable usage with the direct
specification of the path to the Flutter sources relative to the sole buildroot.
Tonic used to be used by multiple consumers outside of Flutter Engine. Due to
this, it has an unnecessary abstraction layer as well as utilities duplicated in
FML and other engine subsystems. The sole user of Tonic is now the Flutter
Engine. It is intended that the Flutter Engine team now owns this subsystem,
remove unnecessary utilities and document the headers. This is the first step in
the transition. No history is being imported as the initial history was already
lost in the transition of this component to fuchsia.googlesource. As this
component was unmaintained there, I could see no additional value in importing
the history of the patches there.
No functional change. Just moved the repo from //third_party to
//flutter/third_party and updates GN refs.
