E.g. threading, file handling, 18 etc. env_chromium.h allows re-use of some utility functions. 19 * chromium_logger.h was copied from src/util/posix_logger.h and updated to use 20 chrome primitives in place of some posix primitives 21 * env_idb.h allows IndexedDB to emit uma stats under separate histograms from 22 other LevelDB consumers. 23 * ChromiumEnv wraps low-level I/O calls that may be interrupted with a 24 HANDLE_EINTR macro that retries the call. 25 * TRACE macros/thread name for chrome://tracing diagnostics 26 * Handle in-process exclusive file locks, based on src/util/env_posix.cc 27 * Unit tests for the Chromium environment. 28
