[WebKit] HTML Parsing Flow

This is a simple note about the function flow of webkit data parsing. 
Assume webkit had gotten html from ResourceHandle, you can find previous article about data loading flow here. (http://twnin.blogspot.com/2012/03/webkit-loading-flow.html)

HTML Parsing
>> start from void DocumentWriter::endIfNotLoadingMainResource()
void DecodedDataDocumentParser::flush(DocumentWriter* writer)
void HTMLDocumentParser::append(const SegmentedString& source)
void HTMLDocumentParser::pumpTokenizerIfPossible(SynchronousMode mode)
void HTMLDocumentParser::pumpTokenizer(SynchronousMode mode)

node tree constructing loop

void HTMLSourceTracker::start(const HTMLInputStream& input, HTMLTokenizer* tokenizer, HTMLToken& token)
bool HTMLTokenizer::nextToken(SegmentedString& source, HTMLToken& token)
void HTMLSourceTracker::end(const HTMLInputStream& input, HTMLTokenizer* tokenizer, HTMLToken& token)
void HTMLTreeBuilder::constructTreeFromToken(HTMLToken& rawToken)
// Here omit detailed tree construction.

end loop

>> return to void DocumentWriter::endIfNotLoadingMainResource() 
void HTMLDocumentParser::finish()
void HTMLDocumentParser::attemptToEnd()
void HTMLDocumentParser::prepareToStopParsing()
void HTMLDocumentParser::attemptToRunDeferredScriptsAndEnd()
void HTMLDocumentParser::end()
void HTMLTreeBuilder::finished()
void Document::finishedParsing()
        bool Node::dispatchEvent(PassRefPtr<Event> event) // DOMContentLoadedEvent

void FrameLoader::finishedParsing()
        void WebFrameLoaderClient::dispatchDidFinishDocumentLoad()
        bool MessageSender::send(const U& message) // dispatchDidFinishDocumentLoad

>> return to void FrameLoader::finishedLoading()
        void WebFrameLoaderClient::dispatchDidLoadMainResource(DocumentLoader*)

>> return to head of call stack


So far, we establish a html node tree, then we are going to load content of DOM.
