22 // Contains information about which extensions are assigned to which processes.
24 // The relationship between extensions and processes is complex:
26 // - Extensions can be either "split" mode or "spanning" mode.
27 // - In spanning mode, extensions share a single process between all incognito
28 // and normal windows. This was the original mode for extensions.
29 // - In split mode, extensions have separate processes in incognito windows.
30 // - There are also hosted apps, which are a kind of extensions, and those
31 // usually have a process model similar to normal web sites: multiple
32 // processes per-profile.
33 // - A single hosted app can have more than one SiteInstance in the same process
34 // if we're over the process limit and force them to share a process.
36 // In general, we seem to play with the process model of extensions a lot, so
37 // it is safest to assume it is many-to-many in most places in the codebase.
39 // Note that because of content scripts, frames, and other edge cases in
40 // Chrome's process isolation, extension code can still end up running outside
41 // an assigned process.
43 // But we only allow high-privilege operations to be performed by an extension
44 // when it is running in an assigned process.
46 // ===========================================================================
47 // WARNINGS - PLEASE UNDERSTAND THESE BEFORE CALLING OR MODIFYING THIS CLASS
48 // ===========================================================================
50 // 1. This class contains the processes for hosted apps as well as extensions
51 // and packaged apps. Just because a process is present here *does not* mean
52 // it is an "extension process" (e.g., for UI purposes). It may contain only
53 // hosted apps. See crbug.com/102533.
55 // 2. An extension can show up in multiple processes. That is why there is no
56 // GetExtensionProcess() method here. There are two cases: a) The extension
57 // is actually a hosted app, in which case this is normal, or b) there is an
58 // incognito window open and the extension is "split mode". It is *not safe*
59 // to assume that there is one process per extension. If you only care about
60 // extensions (not hosted apps), and you are on the UI thread, and you don't
61 // care about incognito version of this extension (or vice versa if you're in
62 // an incognito profile) then use
63 // extensions::ProcessManager::GetSiteInstanceForURL()->[Has|Get]Process().
65 // 3. The process ids contained in this class are *not limited* to the Profile
66 // you got this map from. They can also be associated with that profile's
67 // incognito/normal twin. If you care about this, use
68 // RenderProcessHost::FromID() and check the profile of the resulting object.
70 // TODO(aa): The above warnings suggest this class could use improvement :).
72 // TODO(kalman): This class is not threadsafe, but is used on both the UI and
73 // IO threads. Somebody should fix that, either make it
74 // threadsafe or enforce single thread. Investigation required.

98 // Gets the most likely context type for the process with ID |process_id|
99 // which hosts Extension |extension|, if any (may be NULL). Context types are
100 // renderer (JavaScript) concepts but the browser can do a decent job in
101 // guessing what the process hosts.
103 // |extension| is the funky part - unfortunately we need to trust the
104 // caller of this method to be correct that indeed the context does feature
105 // an extension. This matters for iframes, where an extension could be
106 // hosted in another extension's process (privilege level needs to be
107 // downgraded) or in a web page's process (privilege level needs to be
108 // upgraded).
110 // The latter of these is slightly problematic from a security perspective;
111 // if a web page renderer gets owned it could try to pretend it's an
112 // extension and get access to some unprivileged APIs. Luckly, when OOP
113 // iframes lauch, it won't be an issue.
115 // Anyhow, the expected behaviour is:
116 // - For hosted app processes, this will be blessed_web_page.
117 // - For other extension processes, this will be blessed_extension.
118 // - For WebUI processes, this will be a webui.
119 // - For any other extension we have the choice of unblessed_extension or
120 // content_script. Since content scripts are more common, guess that.
121 // We *could* in theory track which web processes have extension frames
122 // in them, and those would be unblessed_extension, but we don't at the
123 // moment, and once OOP iframes exist then there won't even be such a
124 // thing as an unblessed_extension context.
125 // - For anything else, web_page.
