How to land Skia changes that change Blink layout test results
|
||||
==============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Changes that affect a small number of layout test results
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Changes affecting fewer than ~20 layout tests can be rebaselined without special
|
||||
coordination with the Blink gardener using these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Prepare your Skia change, taking note of which layout tests will turn red
|
||||
\(see http://www.chromium.org/developers/testing/webkit-layout-tests for more
|
||||
detail on running the Blink layout tests\).
|
||||
2. Check in your code to the Skia repo.
|
||||
3. Ahead of the Skia auto roll including your change, manually push a change to the
|
||||
Blink LayoutTests/TestExpectations [file](http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/blink/trunk/LayoutTests/TestExpectations),
|
||||
flagging tests expected to fail as a result of your change with \[ NeedsManualRebaseline \].
|
||||
4. Wait for the Skia roll to land successfully.
|
||||
5. Check in another change to the Blink TestExpectations file changing the flags to
|
||||
\[ NeedsRebaseline\], which will prompt the automatic rebaseline.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Changes that affect a large number of test results
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Where a 'large number' or 'many' means more than about 20.
|
||||
Follow the instructions below:
|
||||
|
||||
In the following the term 'code suppression' means a build flag \(a\.k\.a\. define\).
|
||||
Such code suppressions should be given a name with the form SK\_IGNORE\_xxx\_FIX.
|
||||
|
||||
There are dependency revisions which must be updated in this
|
||||
process. Updating a dependency revision is called a 'roll'.
|
||||
There are two different rolls which concern this process, each of which happens
|
||||
via an Auto Roll Bot multiple times per day, and can also be done manually:
|
||||
|
||||
* Skia roll into Chromium. See
|
||||
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+log/master/DEPS and search for
|
||||
skia\-deps\-roller.
|
||||
* Blink roll into Chromium. See
|
||||
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+log/master/DEPS and search for
|
||||
blink\-deps\-roller.
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
#### Code suppression does not yet exist \- Direct method
|
||||
1. Make a change in Skia which will change many Blink layout tests.
|
||||
2. Put the change behind a code suppression.
|
||||
3. Check in the change to the Skia repository.
|
||||
4. Manually roll Skia or append the autoroll with the code suppression to
|
||||
Chromium's 'skia/skia\_common\.gypi'
|
||||
5. Add code suppression to Blink's 'public/blink\_skia\_config\.gyp'.
|
||||
6. Wait for Blink roll into Chromium.
|
||||
7. Remove code suppression from Chromium's 'skia/skia\_common\.gypi'.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Code suppression does not yet exist \- Alternate method
|
||||
1. Add code suppression to Blink's 'public/blink\_skia\_config\.gyp' before making code
|
||||
changes in Skia.
|
||||
2. Make a change in Skia which will change many Blink layout tests.
|
||||
3. Put the change behind a code suppression.
|
||||
4. Wait for Blink roll into Chromium.
|
||||
5. Check in the change to the Skia repository.
|
||||
6. Wait for Skia roll into Chromium.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Code suppression exists in header
|
||||
1. Remove code suppression from header file in Chromium and add code suppression to
|
||||
Chromium's 'skia/skia\_common\.gypi'.
|
||||
The code suppression cannot be in a header file and a defined in a gyp file at the
|
||||
same time or a multiple definition warning will be treated as an error and break
|
||||
the Chromium build.
|
||||
2. Add code suppression to Blink's 'public/blink\_skia\_config\.gyp'.
|
||||
3. Wait for Blink roll into Chromium.
|
||||
4. Remove code suppression from Chromium's 'skia/skia\_common\.gypi'.
|
||||
|
||||
### Rebaseline
|
||||
1. Choose a time when the Blink tree is likely to be quiet. Avoid PST afternoons in
|
||||
particular. The bigger the change, the more important this is. Regardless,
|
||||
determine who the Blink gardener is and notify them. You will be making the
|
||||
Chromium\.WebKit tree very red for an extended period, and the gardener needs to
|
||||
know that they are not expected to fix it.
|
||||
2. Create a CL removing the code suppression from Blink's
|
||||
public/blink_skia_config.gyp while simultaneously adding [ NeedsRebaseline ]
|
||||
lines to Blink's LayoutTests/TestExpectations [file](http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/blink/trunk/LayoutTests/TestExpectations).
|
||||
Then the auto rebaseline bot will take care of the work of actually checking in the
|
||||
new images. This is generally acceptable for up to 600 or so rebaselined images.
|
||||
Above that you might still use [ NeedsRebaseline ], but it's best to coordinate with
|
||||
the gardener/sheriff. This should go through the CQ cleanly.
|
||||
3. Be careful with tests that are already failing or flakey. These may or may not need
|
||||
to be rebaselined and flakey tests should not be removed from TestExpectations
|
||||
regardless. In such cases revert the TestExpectations changes before committing.
|
||||
4. If you are not the one handling the cleanup step, please open a Skia Issue of the
|
||||
form
|
||||
Title: "Remove code suppression SK\_IGNORE\_xxx\_FIX\."
|
||||
Comment: "Code suppression SK\_IGNORE\_xxx\_FIX rebaselined with Blink revision
|
||||
123456\." and assign it to the individual responsible for the cleanup step.
|
||||
|
||||
### Cleanup
|
||||
1. Wait for Blink roll into Chromium, so that Chromium is using the new Skia code
|
||||
and new Blink baselines.
|
||||
2. Remove the now unused old code from Skia and any defines which were introduced
|
||||
to suppress the new code.
|
||||
3. Check in the cleanup change to the Skia repository.
|
||||
4. Wait for Skia roll into Chromium.

Landing Skia changes which require associated Chrome changes
|
||||
============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
If your change modifies the Skia API, you may also need to land a change in Chromium.
|
||||
|
||||
The strategy you use to synchronize changes in the Skia and Chromium
|
||||
repositories may differ based on the nature of the change, but in general, we
|
||||
recommend using build flag suppressions \(defines\)\.
|
||||
We also prefer making the old code path opt-in where possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Method 1 \(preferred\) \- Make the old code path opt\-in for Chromium
|
||||
|
||||
* Add new code to Skia, leaving the old code in place.
|
||||
* Deprecate the old code path so that it must be enabled with a flag such as
|
||||
'SK_SUPPORT_LEGACY_XXX'.
|
||||
* Synchronize the above changes in Skia with a Chromium commit to
|
||||
'skia/skia_common.gypi' or 'skia/config/SkUserConfig.h' to enable the
|
||||
deprecated Skia API.
|
||||
* Note that the code suppression cannot exist in both the header file and
|
||||
the gyp file, it should only reside in one location.
|
||||
* Test the new or updated Skia API within Chromium.
|
||||
* Remove the flag and code when the legacy code path is no longer in use.
|
||||
|
||||
Method 2 \- Make the new code path opt\-in for Chromium
|
||||
|
||||
* Add new code to Skia, suppressed by a flag.
|
||||
* Leave the old code path in place.
|
||||
* Set the flag in Chromium's 'skia/skia_common.gypi' or
|
||||
'skia/config/SkUserConfig.h' to enable the new or updated Skia API.
|
||||
* Test the new or updated Skia API within Chromium.
|
||||
* Remove the code suppression \(and code\) when the legacy API is no longer
|
||||
in use.
|
||||
|
||||
If your changes will affect Blink layout tests, see detailed instructions about
|
||||
how to synchronize the changes between Skia, Blink, and Chromium [here](./blink).

Managing Chrome's use of Skia
|
||||
=============================
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a Skia change that needs to be tested in Chrome or Blink, or which
|
||||
requires associated changes in those repositories, this is the place for you.

How to manage a Skia repo inside a Chromium repo
|
||||
================================================
|
||||
|
||||
To work on Skia inside a Chromium checkout, run the following:
|
||||
|
||||
~~~~
|
||||
$ cd chromium/src/third_party/skia
|
||||
$ tools/git-sync-deps
|
||||
~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This command does a minimal "just sync the DEPS" emulation of gclient sync for
|
||||
Skia into chromium/src/third_party/skia/third_party. After that, make dm or
|
||||
./gyp_skia && ninja -C out/Debug dm in chromium/src/third_party/skia will get
|
||||
you rolling.
|
||||
|
||||
We no longer recommend the .gclient file manipulation to have Chromium DEPS also
|
||||
sync Skia's DEPS. Most of those DEPS are for building and testing only;
|
||||
Chromium doesn't need any of them, and it can be confusing and problematic if
|
||||
they somehow get mixed into the Chromium build.
