Uniscribe accepts a Halant,ZWJ before matras. Allow that.

Now that we insert dotted-circle, tests break more easily when our indic
machine breaks.
In particular, a few Devanagari tests were having sequences like
"C,H,ZWJ,N", and because of the ZWJ the Nukta does NOT get reordered to
before the Halant as the grammar used to expect... Fixup.
Another case is as simple as "C,ZWJ,SM".

Still some regressions, but some of the more egregious cases are
addressed.
The Win7 Tamil font does not realy on this behavior, but the WinXP
version does. Handle Tamil like Malayalam: Matras always move to
before base.
WinXP Tamil failures went down from 168964 (15.4752%) to 167
(0.0152953%) (two orders of magnitude reduction!).
Included in this is a minor fixup that actually fixed a few tests

Unfortunately if the font has GPOS and 'mark' feature does
not position mark on dotted-circle, our inserted dotted-circle
will not get the mark repositioned to itself. Uniscribe cheats
here.
If there is no GPOS however, the fallback positioning kicks in
and sorts this out.
I'm not willing to address the first case.
No panic, we reeally insert dotted circle when it's absolutely broken.
Fixes most of the dotted-circle cases against Uniscribe. (for Devanagari
fixes 80% of them, for Khmer 70%; the rest look like Uniscribe being
really bogus...)
I had to make a decision. Apparently Uniscribe adds one dotted circle
to each broken character. I tried that, but that goes wrong easily with
split matras. So I made it add only one dotted circle to an entire
broken syllable tail. As in: "if there was a dotted circle here, this
would have formed a correct cluster." That works better for split
stuff, and I like it more.
This will eventually allow us to skip marks, as well as (fallback)
attach marks to ligature components of fallback-shaped Arabic.
That would be pretty cool. I kludged GDEF props in, so mark-skipping
works, but the produced ligature id/components will be cleared later
by substitute_start() et al.
Perhaps using a synthetic table for Arabic fallback shaping was a better
idea. The current approach has way too many layering violations...
Fixes consonant-position with old-spec Malayalam. Uniscribe seem to be
doing this. Fixes below-base La (eg. Pa,H,La) with AnjaliNewLipi.ttf.
Doesn't regress new-spec or other scripts.
This reverts commit 24dd4e5674.
Oops. My bad. The change _regressed_ Malayalam test suite, not
improved it. I'll redo it, differentiating between old-spec and
new-spec cases.
The MS Indic specs say "...all classifications are determined ... using
context-free substitutions." However, testing shows that MS's Malayalam
shapers (both old and new), "match" even if there is no zero-context rule.
We follow.
Fixes below-base La (eg. Pa,H,La) with AnjaliNewLipi.ttf (old spec).
Moreover, test suite Malayalam failures are down to 312 from 875! No
change in other scripts.

The merger of normalizer and glyph-mapping broke shapers that
modified text stream. Unbreak them by adding a new preprocess_text
shaping stage that happens before normalizing/cmap and disallow
setup_mask modification of actual text.
The change is very subtle. If we have a single-char cluster that
decomposes to three or more characters, then try recomposition, in
case the farther mark may compose with the base.
Essentially move the glyph mapping to normalization process.
The effect on Devanagari is small (but observable). Should be more
observable in simple text, like ASCII.
This reverts commit 0981068b75.
I was confused. Even if we access coverage[0] unconditionally, we don't
need bound checks since the array machinary already handles that.
Apparently even that doesn't make check-internal-symbols.sh happy with
mingw32. Going to disable that for DLLs again, but hopefully the
export-file is doing *something*.
'rclt' is "Required Contextual Forms" being proposed by Microsoft.
It's like 'calt', but supposedly always on. We apply 'calt' anyway,
and now apply this too.
At this point, the GDEF glyph synthesis looks pointless. Not that I
have many fonts without GDEF lying around.
As for mark advance zeroing when GPOS not available, that also is being
replaced by proper fallback mark positioning soon.
We need the font for glyph lookup during GSUB pauses in Indic shaper.
Could perhaps be avoided, but at this point, we don't mean to support
separate substitute()/position() entry points (anymore), so there is
no point in not providing the font to GSUB.
Gives me a good 10% speedup for the Devanagari test case. Less so
for less lookup-intensive tests.
For the Devanagari test case, the false positive rate of the GSUB digest
is 4%.
If there is no GPOS, zero mark advances.
If there *is* GPOS and the shaper requests so, zero mark advances for
attached marks.
Fixes regression with Tibetan, where the font has GPOS, and marks a
glyph as mark where it shouldn't get zero advance.
When we removed the separate Hangul shaper, the specific normalization
preference of Hangul was lost. Fix that. Also, the Thai shaper was
copied from Hangul, so had the fully-composed normalization behavior,
which was unnecessary. So, fix that too.
The d1d69ec52e change broke Kannada badly,
since it was ligating consonants, pushing matra out, and then ligating
with the matra. Adjust for that. See comments.
If two marks form a ligature, retain their previous lig_id, such that
the mark ligature can attach to ligature components...
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676343
In fact, I noticed that we should not let ligatures form between glyphs
coming from different components of a previous ligature. For example,
if the sequence is: LAM,SHADDA,LAM,FATHA,HEH, the LAM,LAM,HEH form a
ligature, putting SHADDA and FATHA next to eachother. However, it would
be wrong to ligate them. Uniscribe has this bug also.
This commit: a3313e5400 broke MarkMarkPos
when one of the marks itself is a ligature. That regressed 26 Tibetan
tests (up from zero!). Fix that. Tibetan back to zero.
And use it to speed up the hotspot by checking coverage directly in
the main loop, not 10 functions deep in.
Gives me a solid 20% boost with Indic test suite. Less so for less
lookup-intensive scenarios.
Remove the "fast_path" hack from before.
Does not provide Uniscribe-compatible results, but should at least avoid
breaking hb-view due to out-of-order cluster values.
For RTL runs, ensure cluster values are non-increasing (instead of
non-decreasing).

[arabic] Fix Arabic cursive positioning
This was clearly broken in testing. Who knows... Fixes for me.
Test with a Nastaleeq font, or with Arabic Typesetting.
Backporting from Chromium.
This was broken as a result of 7b84c536c1.
As Khaled reported, MarkMark positioning was broken with glyphs
resulting from a MultipleSubst. Fixed. Test with the ALLAH character
in Amiri.
Does not attempt to handle clusters in a Uniscribe- or HarfBuzz-compatible way;
just returns the original string indexes that CT maintains. These may even be
out-of-order in the case of reordrant glyphs.
The font is forming a post-base consonant in some samples, and Uniscribe
positions top matra on the post-base. Do the same.

The sequence Ra,H,Ya in Bengali is ambigious and Unicode encoded that to
get Ya-Phalaa, one would place ZWJ before Halant. Ie. a ZWJ,H sequence

Also limit joiners.
This limits our syllable length to a constant, and is
closer to what Uniscribe does anyway.
Two Devanagari tests regressed, but who cares about tests with 20
joiners in a row?! Devanagari at 57 (0.00821766%) now.
In Khmer coeng model, a V,Ra can go *after* matras. If it goes after a
split matra, it should be reordered to *before* the left part of such matra.
Khmer failures down from 136 to 39 (0.0130381%).
Apparently if there is C,V,ZWJ,C, the first C will be base, but if
it's C,ZWJ,V,C, the second one will be.
Note that Uniscribe implements this differently, by breaking syllable in
the case of C,ZWJ,V,C and putting the first consonant in one syllable
and the rest in the next syllable.
Sinhala failures down from 208 to 158 (0.0581209%). No changes to
Khmer.
Sinhala does not have half forms. And most (all?) consonants can be
base, except when preceded by ZWJ, which would request a subjoined form.
Hence switch the base algorithm to categorize with Khmer, start search
at start, and stop at a ZWJ.
Also, mark all pos=base consonants after base to be subjoined. Mark
base itself to have pos=base.
Finally, adjust Sinhala's reph position to after-main.
Brings down Sinhala failures from 455 to 328 (0.120656%).
If, say, a H,ZWJ,C ligature was formed, we don't want the code to detec
that as a Halant. So, ignore ligatures when matching category in
final_reordering.
Sinhala failures down from 514 to 455 (0.167374%).
Seems to be about what Uniscribe does. Not exactly. But close enough.
More consonants will start a new cluster.
A few scripts went way down in failures. In particular:
- Devanagari failures went down from 490 to 56.
- Telugu went down from 113 to 49.
Other scripts went down slightly or didn't change. New numbers:
BENGALI: 353908 out of 354285 tests passed. 377 failed (0.106412%)

Some of the remaining Telugu and Devanagari issues seem to be Uniscribe
eating Anusvara when placed before a non-joiner. Ouch!
Uniscribe reorders U+0E3A to be after U+0E38 and U+0E39. We do that by
modifying the ccc for U+0E3A.
Fixes the two remaining Thai failures (see previous commit).
Adjust the list of marks before SARA AM that get the reordering
treatment. Also adjust cluster formation to match Uniscribe.
With Wikipedia test data, now I see:
- For Thai, with the Angsana New font from Win7, I see 54 failures out
of over 4M tests (0.00129107%). Of the 54, two are legitimate
reordering issues (fix coming soon), and the other 52 are simply
Uniscribe using a zero-width space char instead of an unknown
character for missing glyphs. No idea why. The missing-glyph
sequences include one that is a Thai character followed by an Arabic
Sokun. Someone confused it with Nikhahit I assume!
- For Lao, with the Dokchampa font from Win7, 33 tests fail out of
54k (0.0615167%). All seem to be insignificant mark positioning
with two marks on a base. Have to investigate.
Althought IndicMatraCategory.txt classifies it as Top_And_Right matra,
it does not have Unicode decomposition, and Uniscribe does not do
anything special about it either.
Gujarati failures down from 0.672% to 0.0130966%.
That's really what Uniscribe does, and explains a lot of pecularities of
Halant,ZWNJ before the base.
Sent Telugu from 1% failures to 0.03%. Improved Kannada and Malayalam
slightly. Fixed half of Bengali, and did NOT break anything!
Following what the spec says.
Brings down Telugu failures from 40% to 3.75%, and Kannada failures from
44% to 10%. Does NOT affect other scripts' test results.
This is a hack for now. Will be fixed when we do complex-shaper-driven
normalization properly.
The results with or without decomposition are the same, but Uniscribe
does not normalize, so this matches better.
In Sinhala, Rakar is formed by Al-Lakuna,ZWJ,Ra. If you put that at the
end of a Consonant,Matra syllable, you get a dotted-circle from
Uniscribe. Apparently adding a ZWJ before the Al-Lakuna "fixes" that.
And people have been encoding that sequence... So, allow a forced
"ZWJ,Virama,ZWJ,Ra" sequence at the of syllables.
Fixes some 100 or more of Sinhala failures. Now at 622 only (0.23%).
POS_BASE can disappear if base ligated backward. Define base as last
with position not after base.
Fixes a few hundred of Sinhala failures with Iskoola Pota.
It's a visual Repha.
Still not positioning logical Repha as occurs in Malayalam.
Another 200 Khmer failures fixed. 547 to go. That's better than
Devanagari!
This reorders glyphs within the cluster to a nominal order. This should
have no visible effect on the output, but helps with testing, for
getting the same hb-shape output for visually-equal glyphs for each
cluster.
In such scripts (ie. Khmer), a ZWJ/ZWNJ shouldn't stop the search for
base. So, instead just choose the first consonant as base directly.
Test sequence:
U+1798,200c,U+17C9,U+17D2,U+179B,U+17C1,U+17C7
Mark stuff after a pre-base reordering Ro 'cfar'. Used in Khmer.
This allows distinguishing the following cases with MS Khmer fonts:
U+1784,U+17D2,U+179A,U+17D2,U+1782
U+1784,U+17D2,U+1782,U+17D2,U+179A
In Khmer, a final subjoined consonant or independent vowel can occur
after matras. This final subjoined thing should NOT be reordered to
before the matra even though it's subjoined.
Fixes another 1k of the Khmer failures. Not much left really.
Amend the syllable structure to allow a final subscripted consonant
(Coeng+C) and a final subscripted independent vowel (Coeng+V).
Fixes another 2k of Khmer failures.
Normally, we attach the Halant to the previous character and move it
with it. For after-base consonants however, the Halant "belongs" to the
consonant after, so attach it so.
This fixes Bengali sequences involving post-base consonant Ya, which
should ligate with the Halant to form Ya Phala, but previously a
reordered matras was blocking the ligation.
Seems like this is what Uniscribe is doing, and does not break any fonts
we tested (with Devanagari, Malayalam, Khmer, and Bengali), while fixing
some Ra Phala sequences for Bengali with Vrinda. Fixes another 2% of
Bengali failures (a couple more to go).
Uniscribe does not apply 'kern' in the Indic module. Some of the Khmer
fonts they ship have small adjustments in the 'kern' table. Disable
'kern' in the Indic module under Uniscribe bug compatibility mode.
Fixes some 10% of the Khmer failures. Remains under 3% (excluding
dotted-circle ones).
Mark them the same as the Register Shifters for now. Need to rename
that category to something more sensible after all is settled.
Fixes another percent of Khmer failures. Down to under 3%!
We are going to split matras without a Unicode decompositions in a way
that the second half takes the codepoint of the whole matra. So,
position them where the second half is supposed to end up.
Since we use the OpenType versions of Uniscribe functions, we are
relying on that version of the WINNT API. Otherwise, usp10.h will hide
those symbols.
Previously was failing to match fonts that didn't support CHARSET_ANSI.
There still remains a problem with the Uniscribe backend, in that if a
font with the same family name is installed, and is newer, the native
one is preferred over the font we provide. Fixing it requires rewriting
the name table with a unique family name...
This was causing all object types to be non-POD and have static
initializers. We don't need that!
Now, most nil objects just moved from .bss to .data. Fixing for that
coming soon.
According to Tom Hacohen this was breaking build with some compilers.

I like to specially thank Jonathan Kew for doing all the decription and
letting me get commit points.
For dotted-circle independent clusters, Uniscribe does no Reph shaping
for the exact sequence Ra+Halant+25CC. Which also is the only possible
sequence with 25CC at the end.
Uniscribe allows up to two nuktas per consonant and one per matra. It does so
indepent of whether the consonant already has a nukta in it. Tests:
* U+0916,U+093C,U+0941
* U+0959,U+093C,U+0941
* U+0916,U+093C,U+093C,U+0941
* U+0959,U+093C,U+093C,U+0941
* U+0916,U+093C,U+093C,U+093C,U+0941
* U+0959,U+093C,U+093C,U+093C,U+0941
* 915,93c,93c,,94d,U+0916,U+093C,U+093C,U+093e,93c,93c
This does not apply to the context matchings.
This regresses tests right now. And we are not sure whether this is
the right thing to do for GPOS. But we'll figure out.
Uniscribe doesn't do it, but we want to do as it gives the Reph the
opportunity to interact with the Matras. Test with mangal for example.
Sequence: <0930,094d,0915,094b,094d>
In test suite already.
This introduced a failure, which we tracked down to a test case like this:
U+092E,U+094B,U+094D,U+0930
The final character is a Ra that should be put in a syllable of it's
own. And we do. But it will interact with the Halant before it. So
now we finally are convinced that we have to limit features to syllable
boundaries. That's coming after lunch!
Also remove shaper_options argument to hb_shape_full(). That was
unused and for "future". Let it go.
More shaper API coming in preparation for plan/planned API.
Users should #include <hb.h> (or hb-ft.h, hb-glib.h, etc), but
never things like hb-shape.h directly. This makes it easier to
refactor headers later on without breaking compatibility.
This is what old HB does. Morever, fixes rendering with Win8 malgun
font. The Win7 version doesn't compose with either Uniscribe nor HB,
but Win8 version works as expected, like Uniscribe, with this change.
Lets call Hangul done for now.
I couldn't measure significant performance gains out of this; maybe
about 5% (with one million Malayalam strings). Still, not bad.
But reminds me that optimizing this codebase without profiling first
is simply not going to work. Oh well...
Previously, we were NOT actually recomposing Hangul Jamo. We do now.
The two lines in:
test/shaping/texts/in-tree/shaper-default/script-hangul/misc/misc.txt
Now render the same with the UnDotum.ttf font. Previously the second
linle was rendering boxes.
We can also start applying OpenType Jamo features later. At this time,
I have no idea how the 'ljmo', 'vjmo', 'tjmo' features are supposed to
work. Maybe someone can explain them to me?
As requested by Jonathan Kew.
We need to devise a better mechanism to choose which scripts to
pass through the Indic shaper. Moreover, currently we are storing
data for some scripts in the Indic shaper that are not even going
through that shaper. Need to find a better way...
Makes number of failures against Uniscribe with hi_IN dictionary from
OO.o to go down from 6334 to 4290. Not bad for a one-line change!
Mozilla Bug 729626 - ASAN: heap-buffer-overflow HTML
So, apparently there's no atomic int 'get' method on Apple. You have to
add(0) to get. And that's not const-friendly. So switch inert-object
checking to a non-atomic get. This, however, is safe, and a negligible
performance boost too.
Patch and description from Jonathan Kew:
It turns out that some legacy Thai fonts provide OpenType substitution
features to implement mark positioning, but (incorrectly) put those
features/lookups under the 'latn' script tag instead of using 'thai' (or
possibly 'DFLT'). See
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719366 for an example and
more detailed description.
Although this is really a font bug, I suggest that we could improve the
rendering of such fonts by looking for the 'latn' as a fallback if
neither the requested script nor "default" is found in
hb_ot_layout_table_choose_script. Suggested patch against harfbuzz
master is attached.
This does _not_ affect the other kind of legacy Thai font, where custom
code to support vendor-specific PUA codepoints would be needed. I'm not
keen to go down that path; IMO, such fonts should be ruthlessly stamped
out in favour of standards-based solutions. :)

In hb_ot_tag_from_language(), if first component of an unknown
language is three letters long, use it directly as OpenType language
tag (after case conversion and padding).
Still not sure about:
1) Case. We pass lowercase for now. Would be nice if graphite was
uppercase 3letter like OpenType,
2) Padding. IMO, tag padding is always with spaces, but Martin was
talking about NUL bytes.
Can be -1 for NUL-terminated string. This is useful for passing parts
of a larger string to a function without having to copy or modify the
string first.
Affected functions:
hb_tag_t hb_tag_from_string()
hb_direction_from_string()
hb_language_from_string()
hb_script_from_string()
As reported by Khaled on the list:
"After the introduction of canonical reordering of combining marks
(commit 34c22f8), I'm no longer able to do mark/mark substitution or
positioning for mark sequences that involve shadda as a first mark (or
most interesting sequences at least).
"After some digging, it turned out that shadda have a ccc=33 while most
Arabic marks that combine with it have a lower ccc value, which results
in the shadda being reordered after the other mark which,
unsurprisingly, breaks my contextual substitution and mkmk anchors."

For two reasons:
1. User can always call hb_buffer_pre_allocate() themselves, and
2. Now we do a pre_alloc in add_utfX anyway, so the total number of
reallocs is limited to a small number (~3) anyway. This just makes the
API cleaner.
According to Peter Constable this is indeed what Uniscribe has been
doing for years.
Mozilla Bug 667166 - wrong shape of letter when it comes at the end of
word in the arabic version of Firefox 5.0
Remove hb_ft_get_font_funcs() as it cannot be used by the user anyway.
Add hb_ft_font_set_funcs(). Which will make the font internally use
FreeType. That is, no need for the font to have created using the
hb-ft API. Just create using hb_face_create()/hb_font_create() and
then call this on the font (after having set font scale). This
internally creates an FT_Face and attached to the font.
hb_shape() now accepts a shaper_options and a shaper_list argument.
Both can be set to NULL to emulate previous API. And in most situations
they are expected to be set to NULL.
hb_shape() also returns a boolean for now. If shaper_list is NULL, the
return value can be ignored.
shaper_options is ignored for now, but otherwise it should be a
NULL-terminated list of strings.
shaper_list is a NULL-terminated list of strings. Currently recognized
strings are "ot" for native OpenType Layout implementation, "uniscribe"
for the Uniscribe backend, and "fallback" for the non-complex backend
(that will be implemented shortly). The fallback backend never fails.
The env var HB_SHAPER_LIST is also parsed and honored. It's a
colon-separated list of shaper names. The fallback shaper is invoked if
none of the env-listed shapers succeed.
New API hb_buffer_guess_properties() added.
In old-style Indic OT standards, the post-base Halants are moved after
their base. Emulate that by moving first post-base Halant to
post-last-consonant.
Brings test-shape-complex failures down from 88 to 54. Getting there!
