It cuts out some of the GObject boilerplate, and gives us g_autoptr()
support for free.
Since this changes the ABI, we also need to bump the libmutter API
version.
Install include files in
$prefix/include/mutter-$apiversion/[clutter,cogl,...,meta]/, and
datafiles in /usr/share/mutter-$apiversion/.... We still would conflict
e.g. given that our gettext name is "mutter", and how keybindings are
installed, but it's a step in the right direction.
While leaving the runtime checks in place, requiring xrandr 1.5 at build
time allows us to remove some seemingly unnecessary conditional
inclusion of functionality.
This protocol supersedes the internal gtk_text_input protocol that
was in place. Functionally it is very similar, with just some more
verbosity in both ways (text_change_cause, .done event), and some
improvements wrt the pre-edit text styling.
Monitor whether UPower is running ourselves. That allows us to keep the
same value for "lid-is-closed" throughout the process of UPower
restarting, preventing unwanted monitor re-configuration through the process.
Fixes another screen black out when UPower restarts and the laptop lid
is closed.
One of the current limitations of EGLStreams is that there's no way to
resize a surface consumer without re-creating the entire stream.
Therefore, while resizing, clients will send wl_surface::attach requests
so the compositor can re-create its endpoint of the stream, but no
buffer will be available actually. If we proceed with the rest of the
attach operation we'll be presenting an empty buffer.
In order to fix this, a separate wl_eglstream_controller protocol has
been introduced that clients can use to request a stream re-creation
without overloading wl_surface::attach for that purpose.
This change adds the required logic to create the corresponding
wl_eglstream_controller global interface that clients can bind to.
Whenever a client requests a stream to be created, we just need to
create and realize the new EGLStream buffer. The same buffer resource
will be given at a later time to wl_surface::attach, whenever new
content is made available by the application, so we can proceed to
acquire the stream buffer and update the surface state.

We require logind for the native backend, but the backend itself is
optional. However since commit 06c357d78, we will always throw an
error if neither logind nor elogind are available, even when the
backend is disabled.
As we still support "auto" - that is, whether the native backend is
enabled depends on whether its dependencies are available - the
easiest option is to make sure we always include either elogind or
libsystemd in the dependency check rather than erring out explicitly
if neither is found.

This commit allows building mutter with elogind, which is
systemd-logind extracted into a standalone package. This
allows using mutter with its native-backend ( and consequently
wayland ) enabled on distros which use init systems other than
systemd.

Instead of bailing out when a seemingly random file is missing, require
the version of wayland-protocols that includes the source to create that
built file.

Newer versions of GBM support buffer modifiers, including multi-plane
buffers. Use this new API to explicitly pull the information from GBM,
and feed it to drmModeAddFB2WithModifiers.

The KMS IN_FORMATS blob property contains a structure defining which
format/modifier combinations are supported for each plane. Use this to
extract a list of acceptable modifiers to use for the primary plane for
XRGB8888, so we can ask EGL to allocate tiled/compressed buffers for
scanout when available.

The xdg-output protocol aims at describing outputs in way which is
more in line with the concept of an output on desktop oriented systems.
For now it just features the position and logical size which describe
the output position and size in the global compositor space.
This is however much useful for Xwayland to advertise the output size
and position to X11 clients which need this to configure their surfaces
in the global compositor space as the compositor may apply a different
scale from what is advertised by the output scaling property (to achieve
fractional scaling, for example).
This was added in wayland-protocols 1.10.

Pipewire doesn't export its version defines, so the API checks added
in commit f0c6c4eb1f effectively disable screencasting, whoops.
Breaking changes like this should disappear once the library stabilizes,
so simply define the version ourselves instead of writing a "proper"
test with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE() ...

This commit adds basic screen casting and remote desktoping
functionalty. This works by exposing two D-Bus API services:
org.gnome.Mutter.ScreenCast and org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop.
The remote desktop API is used to create remote desktop sessions. For
each session, a D-Bus object is created, and an application can manage
the session by sending messages to the session object. A remote desktop
session the user to emit input events using the D-Bus methods on the
session object. To get framebuffer content, the application should
create an associated screen cast session.
The screen cast API is used to create screen cast sessions. One can so
far either create stand-alone screen cast sessions, or a screen cast
session associated with a remote desktop session. A remote desktop
associated screen cast session is managed by the remote desktop session.
So far only remote desktop managed screen cast sessions are implemented.
Each screen cast session may have one or more streams. A screen cast
stream is a stream of buffers of some part of the compositor content.
So far API exists for creating streams of monitors and windows, but
only monitor streams are implemented.
When a screen cast session is started, the one PipeWire stream is
created for each screen cast stream created for the session. When this
has happened, a PipeWireStreamAdded signal is emitted on the stream
object, passing a unique identifier. The application may use this
identifier to find the associated stream being advertised by the
PipeWire daemon.
The remote desktop and screen cast functionality must be explicitly be
enabled at ./configure time by passing --enable-remote-desktop to
./configure. Doing this will build both screen cast and remote desktop
support.
To actually enable the screen casting and remote desktop, the user must
enable the experimental feature. See
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features.
