23 // When a page's frames are rendered by multiple processes, each renderer has a
24 // full copy of the frame tree. It has full RenderFrames for the frames it is
25 // responsible for rendering and placeholder objects (i.e., RenderFrameProxies)
26 // for frames rendered by other processes.
28 // This class is the browser-side host object for the placeholder. Each node in
29 // the frame tree has a RenderFrameHost for the active SiteInstance and a set
30 // of RenderFrameProxyHost objects - one for all other SiteInstances with
31 // references to this frame. The proxies allow us to keep existing window
32 // references valid over cross-process navigations and route cross-site
33 // asynchronous JavaScript calls, such as postMessage.
35 // For now, RenderFrameProxyHost is created when a RenderFrameHost is swapped
36 // out and acts just as a wrapper. It is destroyed when the RenderFrameHost is
37 // swapped back in or is no longer referenced and is therefore deleted.
39 // Long term, RenderFrameProxyHost will be created whenever a cross-site
40 // navigation occurs and a reference to the frame navigating needs to be kept
41 // alive. A RenderFrameProxyHost and a RenderFrameHost for the same SiteInstance
42 // can exist at the same time, but only one will be "active" at a time.
43 // There are two cases where the two objects will coexist:
44 // * When navigating cross-process and there is already a RenderFrameProxyHost
45 // for the new SiteInstance. A pending RenderFrameHost is created, but it is
46 // not used until it commits. At that point, RenderFrameHostManager transitions
47 // the pending RenderFrameHost to the active one and deletes the proxy.
48 // * When navigating cross-process and the existing document has an unload
49 // event handler. When the new navigation commits, RenderFrameHostManager
50 // creates a RenderFrameProxyHost for the old SiteInstance and uses it going
51 // forward. It also instructs the RenderFrameHost to run the unload event
52 // handler and is kept alive for the duration. Once the event handling is
53 // complete, the RenderFrameHost is deleted.
