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 reached 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 appears that any
51 new backported CVE fixes for QtWebEngine will be available after Qt makes
52 public releases of its current versions.
53 </para>
54 </important>
55
56 <warning>
57 <para>
58 QtWebEngine uses a forked copy of chromium, and is therefore vulnerable
59 to many issues found there. The Qt developers have always preferred to
60 make releases at the same time as the rest of Qt (rather than adding
61 emergency fixes), but with stable versions getting released after the
62 current development version. Now that they are keen to move to Qt6, the
63 5.15.3 and later Qt-5.15 releases are initially only available to paying
64 customers. QtWebEngine is something of an exception because of its LGPL
65 licence, but getting the git sources (with the forked chromium submodule)
66 to a position where they will successfully build on a current BLFS system
67 can take a lot of effort and therefore updates to the book may be delayed.
68 </para>
69
70 <para>
71 It seems likely that future 5.15-series versions will also be released
72 long after the chromium vulnerabilities are known, but fixes for
73 QtWebEngine can be found in git and the editors take the view that
74 known vulnerabilities in browsers should be fixed.
75 </para>
76
77 <para> <!-- for git versions -->
78 The tarball linked to below was created from the 5.15.15 git branch
79 and the 87-branch of the chromium submodule (which is forked from
80 chromium). See the GIT-VERSIONS file in the tarball for details of the
81 latest commits.
82 </para>
83 </warning>
84
85 <!-- note for editors on obtaining webengine from git.
86 First (if you do not already have a past version)
87 git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qtwebengine.git
88 git submodule init -
89 that will report qtwebengine-chromium.git registered for src/3rdparty
90 now find the main branch names:
91 git fetch origin
92 git branch -r
93 after a release is prepared (even if the rest is not public), the 5.15
94 branch now seems to get updated and might be what you want. But in the
95 approach to 5.15.6 the backported CVE and other security fixes were only
96 applied to 5.15.6. So, assuming that a 5.15.7 branch now exists,
97 git checkout origin/5.15.7
98 Confirm that HEAD is where you expected.
99 Now go to src/3rdparty
100 git fetch origin
101 git branch -r
102 The required branch is likely to be 87-branch unless there is a newer one
103 mentioned in the 5.15 cgit web page (below).
104 git checkout origin/87-branch (or whatever)
105 Use git log or git tk to look at its HEAD and check it seems appropriate.
106 If this doesn't work, use 'git submodule update'
107
108 To decide when it might be worth creating a new tarball, periodically keep
109 an eye on https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtwebengine.git/ (currently, the 5.15.6
110 branch, 5.15.7 might get used later). The interesting items are CVE fixes
111 for known chromium vulnerabilities, as well as numbered Security bugs -
112 again, these relate to chromium.
113
114 When I noticed some updates in late March I was searching for one of the
115 CVEs mentioned, and google found a link to a review page for Michael Brüning
116 at https://codereview.qt.nokia.com/q/owner:michael.bruning%2540qt.io. At that
117 time I could see various unmerged items, so I waited. The items for the
118 90-based chromium module are not relevant to 5.15-series (possibly they will
119 be for qtwebengine-6+). Review queues for other Qt employees might be found
120 in a similar way, but remember that everythng EXCEPT qtwebengine and chromium
121 is private to Qt until they choose to release it.
122
123 NOTE: the 3rdparty/chromium tree may contain more patches than have been
124 merged into the current 5.15.x branch. Any patches after what was in the
125 last 'update chromium' merge in qtwebengine occasionally break the build.
126
127 After merging the contents of the qtwebengine and src/3rdparty git extracts,
128 in the top level please create a GIT-VERSIONS file summarising the HEAD
129 commits of both parts, as a reminder of where we are up to. I've nove added
130 a CVE-fixes to keep track of what has been fixed (comits before 5.15.2 did not
131 mention the CVEs until they were detailed in a release).
132
133 Now create tarballs - 'git archive' does not work across submodule boundaries,
134 so you need to create one archive from the top of qtwebengine/ and another
135 from the top of src/3rdparty (chromium, gn, ninja are apparently all part of
136 the qtwebengine-chromium module). Then in a work area untar the qtwebengine
137 tarball, go down to src/3rdparty and untar the submodule tarball.
138 Decide on what to call the result and create a full xz tarball using tar -cJf.
139
140 NOTE: To use git archive, use something like this:
141 git archive - -format tar.gz - -output qtwebengine.tar.gz HEAD
142 git archive - -format tar.gz - -output chromium.tar.gz HEAD
143
144 UPDATE: Since we have to host the tarball, and it is over 300MB, it makes
145 sense to create a patch for subsequent fixes (for the first version, 314KB
146 including the updates to the GIT-VERSIONS file). For future updates, view
147 the current updates patch to see the previous commits. When the new commits
148 have been applied, rename the updated version to 'b', but untar the
149 unpatched tarball as 'a' and then diff a to b in the usual manner to get
150 all updates since the tarball was created.
151
152 For our own releases, probably best to create a fresh tarball.

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

175 <para>
176 If you are upgrading and have installed a newer version of <xref
177 linkend='icu'/> since you last installed <xref linkend='qt5'/>, you
178 will need to reinstall Qt5 before upgrading, otherwise the final link
179 of this package will fail with a warning that the version of icu
180 libraries needed by libQt5Core.so may conflict with the version
181 used for this package.
182 </para>
183
184 <para>
185 Unusually, the shipped GN build system (used to create the Ninja files)
186 requires a static <filename class="libraryfile">libstdc++.a</filename>
187 although the installed libraries correctly use the shared version. If
188 that static library is not present, the build will fail quite quickly.
189 Please note that if you try to build webengine as part of
190 <application>Qt</application> and the static library is not available,
191 that build will either complete without installing webengine, or else
192 fail during the install (both variants were observed in 5.12.0).

320 <para>
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.

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:

380 Because this version of qtwebengine is aimed at a later release than 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.

540 recognize the NINJAJOBS environment variable, this command will run system
541 ninja with the specified number of jobs (i.e. 4).
542 There are several reasons why you might want to use options like this this:

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.

591 If you are upgrading from an older minor version of this

594 <application>falkon</application> they will be found in
595 <filename class="directory">~/.cache/falkon/</filename>.
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.
