commit 9c4ad38de1f14c9f2a2084bbb291fc0e83e6d48c Author: Alex Catarineu <acat@torproject.org> Date: Mon Sep 9 13:04:34 2019 +0200 Bug 31575: Replace Firefox Home (newtab) with about:tor Avoid loading AboutNewTab in BrowserGlue.jsm in order to avoid several network requests that we do not need. Besides, about:newtab will now point to about:blank or about:tor (depending on browser.newtabpage.enabled) and about:home will point to about:tor. --- browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm | 29 ++---------------------- browser/components/newtab/AboutNewTabService.jsm | 15 +----------- browser/components/preferences/home.inc.xhtml | 4 ++-- browser/components/preferences/preferences.xhtml | 5 +++- browser/modules/HomePage.jsm | 2 +- 5 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-) diff --git a/browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm b/browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm index 4525dcc39cac..1bde9c472ace 100644 --- a/browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm +++ b/browser/components/BrowserGlue.jsm @@ -23,12 +23,6 @@ ChromeUtils.defineModuleGetter( "resource://gre/modules/ActorManagerParent.jsm" ); -ChromeUtils.defineModuleGetter( - this, - "AboutNewTab", - "resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm" -); - ChromeUtils.defineModuleGetter( this, "E10SUtils", @@ -146,19 +140,6 @@ let JSWINDOWACTORS = { matches: ["about:newinstall"], }, - AboutNewTab: { - child: { - moduleURI: "resource:///actors/AboutNewTabChild.jsm", - events: { - DOMContentLoaded: {}, - }, - }, - // The wildcard on about:newtab is for the ?endpoint query parameter - // that is used for snippets debugging. - matches: ["about:home", "about:welcome", "about:newtab*"], - remoteTypes: ["privilegedabout"], - }, - AboutPlugins: { parent: { moduleURI: "resource:///actors/AboutPluginsParent.jsm", @@ -1729,8 +1710,6 @@ BrowserGlue.prototype = { // the first browser window has finished initializing _onFirstWindowLoaded: function BG__onFirstWindowLoaded(aWindow) { - AboutNewTab.init(); - TabCrashHandler.init(); ProcessHangMonitor.init(); @@ -5146,12 +5125,8 @@ var AboutHomeStartupCache = { return { pageInputStream: null, scriptInputStream: null }; } - let state = AboutNewTab.activityStream.store.getState(); - return new Promise(resolve => { - this._cacheDeferred = resolve; - this.log.trace("Parent received cache streams."); - this._procManager.sendAsyncMessage(this.CACHE_REQUEST_MESSAGE, { state }); - }); + this.log.error("Activity Stream is disabled in Tor Browser."); + return { pageInputStream: null, scriptInputStream: null }; }, /** diff --git a/browser/components/newtab/AboutNewTabService.jsm b/browser/components/newtab/AboutNewTabService.jsm index aa73892f4370..06cff38f1861 100644 --- a/browser/components/newtab/AboutNewTabService.jsm +++ b/browser/components/newtab/AboutNewTabService.jsm @@ -323,20 +323,7 @@ class BaseAboutNewTabService { * the newtab page has no effect on the result of this function. */ get defaultURL() { - // Generate the desired activity stream resource depending on state, e.g., - // "resource://activity-stream/prerendered/activity-stream.html" - // "resource://activity-stream/prerendered/activity-stream-debug.html" - // "resource://activity-stream/prerendered/activity-stream-noscripts.html" - return [ - "resource://activity-stream/prerendered/", - "activity-stream", - // Debug version loads dev scripts but noscripts separately loads scripts - this.activityStreamDebug && !this.privilegedAboutProcessEnabled - ?
