26 // This class is responsible for managing the out-of-process plugin loading on
27 // POSIX systems. It primarily lives on the IO thread, but has a brief stay on
28 // the FILE thread to iterate over plugin directories when it is first
29 // constructed.
31 // The following is the algorithm used to load plugins:
32 // 1. This asks the PluginList for the list of all potential plugins to attempt
33 // to load. This is referred to as the canonical list.
34 // 2. The child process this hosts is forked and the canonical list is sent to
35 // it.
36 // 3. The child process iterates over the canonical list, attempting to load
37 // each plugin in the order specified by the list. It sends an IPC message
38 // to the browser after each load, indicating success or failure. The two
39 // processes synchronize the position in the vector that will be used to
40 // attempt to load the next plugin.
41 // 4. If the child dies during this process, the host forks another child and
42 // resumes loading at the position past the plugin that it just attempted to
43 // load, bypassing the problematic plugin.
44 // 5. This algorithm continues until the canonical list has been walked to the
45 // end, after which the list of loaded plugins is set on the PluginList and
46 // the completion callback is run.
