Lock free animations (1/2)
First CL that introduces SurfaceAnimator/LockFreeAnimator
We start our synchronized app transition journey by showing that
the concept works by using WindowState animations as proof of
concept.
The main class in this CL are SurfaceAnimator and
SurfaceAnimatorRunner. When we start an animation on a Window, we
create a new bufferless surface, called "The Leash", in the
hierarchy and attach the surface of WindowState onto it, while
attaching the leash onto the old surface parent which is still
responsible for z-layering.
Then, we pass off the Leash into SurfaceAnimationRunner, which then
changes the surface properties of Leash in every animation frame,
without holding the WM lock. While it's doing that we can still
update the z-layering of the window, or even relayout the window
of needed - the important surfaces for this are still under WM's
control.
In case the animation is finished the window surface gets
reparented to its original parent, and the leash is abandoned.
Note that the reparenting is done in the same transaction as
processing the animation finish, such that we don't end up with
a flicker in case of a disappearing animation, where the window
surface gets destroyed.
In case the animation needs to be cancelled, WM can revoke control
of the leash by reparenting the window surface. Even if the
cancellation signal is heavily delayed, WM immediately regains
control over the surface by reparenting it within a transaction.
We also introduce the concept of animating a WindowContainer. We
clean up isAnimating:
- isLocalAnimating: is the container itself animating
- isAnimating: is the container or one of its parents animating
- isSelfOrChildAnimating: is local animating or any child
animating.
SurfaceAnimationRunner also needs it's own thread so it's not getting
bogged down by any WM lock contention by processing regular
animation frames. We call that thread android.anim.lf (lockfree).
Now, imagine that SurfaceAnimationAnimator would sit behind an IPC in
another process and instead of animating WindowState, we'd animate
AppWindowToken. Then, synchronized app transitions would be done.
