32 <para>
33 <application>QtWebEngine</application> integrates
34 <application>chromium</application>'s web capabilities into Qt. It
35 ships with its own copy of ninja which it uses for the build if it cannot
36 find a system copy, and various copies of libraries from ffmpeg, icu,
37 libvpx, and zlib (including libminizip) which have been forked by the
38 <application>chromium</application> developers.
39 </para>

42 This package and browsers using it may be useful if you need to use a
43 website designed for google chrome, or chromium, browsers.

48 Qt-5.15 reaches End Of Life on 26 May 2023. Extended lifetime Qt5.15 LTS
49 has been extended until 26th May 2025 for those with subscription licenses.
50 Because qtwebengine uses chromium code under the LGPL, it is not yet
51 clear if there will be any more backported CVE fixes for QtWebEngine after
52 the 5.15.14 release (the Extended Lifetime fixes might only be in response
53 to specific issues raised by subscribers).
54 </para>
55 </important>
56
57 <warning>
58 <para>
59 QtWebEngine uses a forked copy of chromium, and is therefore vulnerable
60 to many issues found there. The Qt developers have always preferred to
61 make releases at the same time as the rest of Qt (rather than adding
62 emergency fixes), but with stable versions getting released after the
63 current development version. Now that they are keen to move to Qt6, the
64 5.15.3 and later Qt-5.15 releases are initially only available to paying
65 customers. QtWebEngine is something of an exception because of its LGPL
66 licence, but getting the git sources (with the forked chromium submodule)
67 to a position where they will successfully build on a current BLFS system
68 can take a lot of effort and therefore updates to the book may be delayed.
69 </para>
70
71 <para>
72 It seems likely that future 5.15-series versions will also be released
73 long after the chromium vulnerabilities are known, but fixes for
74 QtWebEngine can be found in git and the editors take the view that
75 known vulnerabilities in browsers should be fixed.
76 </para>
77
78 <para> <!-- for git versions -->
79 The tarball linked to below was created from the 5.15 git branch
80 and the 87-branch of the chromium submodule (which is forked from
81 chromium). See the GIT-VERSIONS file in the tarball for details of the
82 latest commits.
83 </para>
84 </warning>
85
86 <!-- note for editors on obtaining webengine from git.
87 First (if you do not already have a past version)
88 git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qtwebengine.git
89 git submodule init -
90 that will report qtwebengine-chromium.git registered for src/3rdparty
91 now find the main branch names:
92 git fetch origin
93 git branch -r
94 after a release is prepared (even if the rest is not public), the 5.15
95 branch now seems to get updated and might be what you want. But in the
96 approach to 5.15.6 the backported CVE and other security fixes were only
97 applied to 5.15.6. So, assuming that a 5.15.7 branch now exists,
98 git checkout origin/5.15.7
99 Confirm that HEAD is where you expected.
100 Now go to src/3rdparty
101 git fetch origin
102 git branch -r
103 The required branch is likely to be 87-branch unless there is a newer one
104 mentioned in the 5.15 cgit web page (below).
105 git checkout origin/87-branch (or whatever)
106 Use git log or git tk to look at its HEAD and check it seems appropriate.
107 If this doesn't work, use 'git submodule update'
108
109 To decide when it might be worth creating a new tarball, periodically keep
110 an eye on https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtwebengine.git/ (currently, the 5.15.6
111 branch, 5.15.7 might get used later). The interesting items are CVE fixes
112 for known chromium vulnerabilities, as well as numbered Security bugs -
113 again, these relate to chromium.
114
115 When I noticed some updates in late March I was searching for one of the
116 CVEs mentioned, and google found a link to a review page for Michael Brüning
117 at https://codereview.qt.nokia.com/q/owner:michael.bruning%2540qt.io. At that
118 time I could see various unmerged items, so I waited. The items for the
119 90-based chromium module are not relevant to 5.15-series (possibly they will
120 be for qtwebengine-6+). Review queues for other Qt employees might be found
121 in a similar way, but remember that everythng EXCEPT qtwebengine and chromium
122 is private to Qt until they choose to release it.
123
124 NOTE: the 3rdparty/chromium tree may contain more patches than have been
125 merged into the current 5.15.x branch. Any patches after what was in the
126 last 'update chromium' merge in qtwebengine occasionally break the build.
127
128 After merging the contents of the qtwebengine and src/3rdparty git extracts,
129 in the top level please create a GIT-VERSIONS file summarising the HEAD
130 commits of both parts, as a reminder of where we are up to. I've nove added
131 a CVE-fixes to keep track of what has been fixed (comits before 5.15.2 did not
132 mention the CVEs until they were detailed in a release).
133
134 Now create tarballs - 'git archive' does not work across submodule boundaries,
135 so you need to create one archive from the top of qtwebengine/ and another
136 from the top of src/3rdparty (chromium, gn, ninja are apparently all part of
137 the qtwebengine-chromium module). Then in a work area untar the qtwebengine
138 tarball, go down to src/3rdparty and untar the submodule tarball.
139 Decide on what to call the result and create a full xz tarball using tar -cJf.
140
141 NOTE: To use git archive, use something like this:
142 git archive - -format tar.gz - -output qtwebengine.tar.gz HEAD
143 git archive - -format tar.gz - -output chromium.tar.gz HEAD
144
145 UPDATE: Since we have to host the tarball, and it is over 300MB, it makes
146 sense to create a patch for subsequent fixes (for the first version, 314KB
147 including the updates to the GIT-VERSIONS file). For future updates, view
148 the current updates patch to see the previous commits. When the new commits
149 have been applied, rename the updated version to 'b', but untar the
150 unpatched tarball as 'a' and then diff a to b in the usual manner to get
151 all updates since the tarball was created.
152
153 For our own releases, probably best to create a fresh tarball.

160 <para>
161 By default, ninja will use all online CPUs +2 (if at least 4 exist),
162 even if they are not available to the current task because the build
163 terminal has been restricted with 'taskset'. In BLFS, this package
164 takes more time to build than than any other. In one example,
165 the build of this package crashed at about the 90 percent point
166 due to an out of memory problem on a system with 24 cores and 32 GB
167 of memory.

176 <para>
177 If you are upgrading and have installed a newer version of <xref
178 linkend='icu'/> since you last installed <xref linkend='qt5'/>, you
179 will need to reinstall Qt5 before upgrading, otherwise the final link
180 of this package will fail with a warning that the version of icu
181 libraries needed by libQt5Core.so may conflict with the version
182 used for this package.

184
185 <para>
186 Unusually, the shipped GN build system (used to create the Ninja files)
187 requires a static <filename class="libraryfile">libstdc++.a</filename>
188 although the installed libraries correctly use the shared version. If
189 that static library is not present, the build will fail quite quickly.
190 Please note that if you try to build webengine as part of
191 <application>Qt</application> and the static library is not available,
192 that build will either complete without installing webengine, or else
193 fail during the install (both variants were observed in 5.12.0).

321 Unlike version 5.15.2, the chromium-derived build system now needs
322 <command>python</command> to be available and to be python2. In
323 BLFS-10.1 the creation of the python symlink was removed as a step
324 towards eventually getting rid of python2 (other old packages which
325 need python2 usually work by invoking python2). If you are still
326 using an earlier version of BLFS where
327 <filename>/usr/bin/python</filename> exists, you can skip the
328 commands to create the symlink, and to later remove it.

368 <para>
369 Although the build_fixes patch has ensured that git is not invoked during the build,
370 the build system has labyrinthine rules of byzantine complexity, and in
371 particular trying to build without two <filename>.git</filename> directories
372 will lead to it eventually falling into unexpected and unbuildable code
373 which references a private header that has not been created. Avoid this
374 by creating the required directories:

376
377<screen><userinput>mkdir -pv .git src/3rdparty/chromium/.git</userinput></screen>
378
379 <para>
380 Because this version of qtwebengine is aimed at a later release than the
381 current public releases, change it to build for qt-&qt5-version; using a

385<screen><userinput>sed -e '/^MODULE_VERSION/s/5.*/&qt5-version;/' -i .qmake.conf</userinput></screen>
386<!-- end of commands for git versions only -->
387

512 ffmpeg to decode H264 and H265 codecs. If built as part of full Qt5, the
513 system icu is automatically used (only) by Qt5Core if it is available, but
514 unless this option is used webengine will always use its shipped copy of icu,
515 adding time and space to the build.

519 <option>-webengine-jumbo-build 0</option>: If this is added to the qmake
520 command it will cause the 'Jumbo Build Merge Limit' to be reported as 'no'
521 instead of 8. That turns off the jumbo build. Some distros do that to get
522 a smaller build on some architectures such as MIPS. On x86_64 it might save
523 a little space in the build, but the build time will increase by a very
524 large amount.

548 Building on a subset of CPUs allows measuring the build time
549 for a smaller number of processors, and/or running other
550 CPU-intensive tasks at the same time. For an editor on a machine
551 with a lot of CPUs, trying to measure the build time for a 4-CPU
552 machine, <option>NINJAJOBS=4 make</option> will give a reasonable
553 approximation (there is a short period where N+2 python and node
554 jobs run).

559 On a machine with only 4 CPUs online, the default of scheduling
560 N+2 jobs for qtwebengine is slower by between 3% and 7%, probably
561 because of the size of the C++ files and their many includes and
562 templates. Therefore, if in doubt set NINJAJOBS to the number of CPUs.

573 Reducing the number of cores will prevent potential out-of-memory
574 problems on systems that do not have enough memory (or swap)
575 when all cores are active. A suggested approach is to limit
576 the number of cores to about one core for each 1.5 GB of
577 combined RAM and swap space.

596 You will need to do this if the browser starts to render
597 the page and then changes to a blank tab with a message
598 that something went wrong, and a button to Retry. Even
599 after removing the old caches, you may need to retry a

604 If a browser using this package fails to run and when run
605 from a term it reports 'Trace/breakpoint trap' that is
606 probably a kernel configuration issue - there is no need
607 to rebuild QtWebEngine, see the next section, recompile
608 the kernel and reboot to the new kernel.
