When flutter/synchronization was first authored, we did not own fml (it was called fxl then). Now we do, so use a single spot for such utilities. The pipeline was meant to be a general purpose utility that was only ever used by the animator (it even has animator specific tracing), so move that to shell instead (where the animator resides).
Some components in the Flutter engine were derived from the forked blink codebase. While the forked components have either been removed or rewritten, the use of the blink namespace has mostly (and inconsistently) remained. This renames the blink namesapce to flutter for consistency. There are no functional changes in this patch.
When running on Fuchsia, "fml/trace_event.h" sends trace events towards
Fuchsia's tracing system, rather than its own |fml::tracing::*| one. Do
the same thing for |FlutterEventTracer|, in order to unlock category
"skia" trace events when running on Fuchsia.
The reason this was not working before is because |FlutterEventTracer|
was directly using |fml::tracing::*| functions, rather than the
TRACE_EVENT_* macros.
In the future, we can look into having the skia event tracer enabled by
default on Fuchsia, controlling the presence of Skia events by
enabling/disabling the "skia" category, once we measure the performance
cost of doing so.
The reason we didn't merge just the gpu and platform threads from the get go was a deadlock in Shell:OnPlatformViewCreated and Shell:OnPlatformViewDestroyed.
The deadlock was caused by the platform thread starting a thread-hopping flow that ends ends up with the gpu thread releasing a latch that the platform thread is waiting on just after starting the cross-thread dance.
If the platform and gpu threads are the same, that last task that is posted to the gpu thread will never get executed as the gpu/platform thread is blocked on a latch.
This works around the deadlock by having a special case in the code for the scenario where the gpu and platform threads are the same.
Fixes: flutter/flutter#23974
This will allow us to easily visualize the time the platform informed the engine of a vsync event, its arguments, and when the engine began its UI thread workload using this information.
Allow Flutter to automatically dump the skp that triggers new shader compilations. This is useful for writing custom ShaderWarmUp to reduce jank. By default, it's not enabled to reduce the overhead. This is only available in profile or debug build.
Later, we can add service protocol support to pull the skp from the client to the host. Currently, it works fine for Android-based devices (including our urgent internal clients) where we can `adb shell` into the cache directory.
The ICU data is packaged within libflutter.so, and the engine uses
dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT) to look up the ICU data symbols in the libraries
loaded by the process.
This approach apparently fails on some Xiaomi devices. If RTLD_DEFAULT
can not find the symbols, then the platform will pass the path to the
libflutter.so library so the engine can use that to resolve the symbols.

Some clients (e.g., embedded devices) prefer generating persistent cache files for the specific device beforehand, and ship them as readonly files in OTA packages.
The current assumption is that the embedder will wait till the vsync event and
then fire the callback. However, some embedders have that information upfront.
Since the time point has already been specified by the embedder, there is no
reason to burden the embedder with having to setup a wait either.
The shell was already designed to cleanly shut down the VM but it couldnt
earlier as |Dart_Initialize| could never be called after a |Dart_Cleanup|. This
meant that shutting down an engine instance could not shut down the VM to save
memory because newly created engines in the process after that point couldn't
restart the VM. There can only be one VM running in a process at a time.
This patch separate the previous DartVM object into one that references a
running instance of the DartVM and a set of immutable dependencies that
components can reference even as the VM is shutting down.
Unit tests have been added to assert that non-overlapping engine launches use
difference VM instances.
If a frame is scheduled by the time the delayed animator notify idle
task runs, then we should not call |NotifyIdle|.
Also, add a trace event in the task, to make it more clear in traces
when a notify idle call is coming from here (as opposed to
|Animator::AwaitVSync|).
Prior to this the Android embedder code would extract the icudtl.dat asset out
of the APK and write it to local disk during the first startup of the app.
This change will make that work unnecessary and eliminate the risk of ICU
failures due to errors in the extraction process.
Behavior (visual) changes should be very minor. Things that are to be expected:
* A few things were not color managed correctly by the transform canvas (color emoji, some color filters). Those will be handled correctly with the tagged surfaces (although we're always transforming to sRGB, so nothing should change until we target a wider gamut).
* Image filtering will happen in the source color space, rather than the destination. Very minor.
* The transform canvas did caching of images in the destination color space. Now, the conversion happens at draw time. If there are performance issues, images can be pre-converted to the destination with makeColorSpace().
* Support real fonts in 'flutter test'
Change the order of font_managers to query in font_collection
so that dynamic_font_manager fonts will be resolved.
Tested with test case in `flutter/flutter` repo:
`packages/flutter/test/rendering/localized_fonts_test.dart`
Ensured:
- A font loaded with FontLoader will be used
- The default 'Ahem' font is still loaded by default
The test above still cannot be fixed because FontLoader and the
underlying mechanisms don't cover Locale-specific font loading
and therefore a CJK font-family won't be able to be loaded as needed
for that test.
Fixes#17700
* Format fixup
In Dart 2, runtime checked mode has been eliminated. Many of these type
checks have been moved to static compile-time checks, the remainder are
enforced at runtime, and are no longer optional.
