Linux:
- Maire is going to try and find some more help for LInux and Mac
- We need good measurements about perf implications of ipdl
- We need a file access story (OPEN).
Windows
- Tim is queued up for this after the h264 stuff
OpenH264
- (fx32/33 targetted for support of h264 on desktop for all major desktop platforms)
- File access on linux may be more complicated due to the difference in framework
- On windows, very close. Intermittent orange that goes permaorange with tim's patch
- [tim] Also (forgot to mention) we're setting security token to USER_RESTRICTED_SAME_ACCESS but we should be able to lock down even further (USER_LOCKDOWN). We'll land as is but as a follow-up should investigate why anything lower than USER_RESTRICTED_SAME_ACCESS causes problems with IPC
B2G:
- still working on the OPEN problem
- Will need a good solution here for desktop linux for EME etc. (Good file access controls where we can whitelist specfic files)
- open performance issues with libgenlock and remoting https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=980924
