2b81d90dd7 Eliminate G_CONST_RETURN
The G_CONST_RETURN define in GLib is, and has always been, a bit fuzzy.

We always used it to conform to the platform, at least for public-facing
API.

At first I assumed it has something to do with brain-damaged compilers
or with weird platforms where const was not really supported; sadly,
it's something much, much worse: it's a define that can be toggled at
compile-time to remove const from the signature of public API. This is a
truly terrifying feature that I assume was added in the past century,
and whose inception clearly had something to do with massive doses of
absynthe and opium — because any other explanation would make the
existence of such a feature even worse than assuming drugs had anything
to do with it.

Anyway, and pleasing the gods, this dubious feature is being
removed/deprecated in GLib; see bug:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644611

Before deprecation, though, we should just remove its usage from the
whole API. We should especially remove its usage from Cally's internals,
since there it never made sense in the first place.

70767f08dc Adds a --with-system-cogl config option for Clutter
This makes it possible to build Clutter against a standalone build of
Cogl instead of having the Clutter build traverse into the clutter/cogl
subdirectory.

d6f110a4d2 Moves all GLX code down from Clutter to Cogl
This migrates all the GLX window system code down from the Clutter
backend code into a Cogl winsys. Moving OpenGL window system binding
code down from Clutter into Cogl is the biggest blocker to having Cogl
become a standalone 3D graphics library, so this is an important step in
that direction.

532b563439 Add temporary cogl-clutter.h to aid splitting out Cogl
This gives us a way to clearly track the internal Cogl API that Clutter
depends on. The aim is to split Cogl out from Clutter into a standalone
3D graphics API and eventually we want to get rid of any private
interfaces for Clutter so its useful to have a handle on that task.
Actually it's not as bad as I was expecting though.

ef4688fd0e Avoid direct access to the main context events queue
The GQueue that stores the global events queue is handled all over the
place:

  • the structure is created in _clutter_backend_init_events();
  • the queue is handled in clutter-event.c, clutter-stage.c and
    clutter-backend.c;
  • ClutterStage::dispose cleans up the events associated with
    the stage being destroyed;
  • the queue is destroyed in ClutterBackend::dispose.

Since we need to have access to it in different places we cannot put it
inside ClutterBackendPrivate, hence it should stay in ClutterMainContext;
but we should still manage it from just one place - preferably by the
ClutterEvent API only.

56d133f908 backend: Move event translators to the base class

ClutterStageWindow::redraw ourselves by default.

move the stage implementation redraw inside the ClutterStageWindow
implementation itself.

1b1e77b469 event/x11: Rework the way we translate X11 events
This is a lump commit that is fairly difficult to break down without
either breaking bisecting or breaking the test cases.

The new design for handling X11 event translation works this way:

  - ClutterBackend::translate_event() has been added as the central
    point used by a ClutterBackend implementation to translate a
    native event into a ClutterEvent;

  - ClutterEventTranslator is a private interface that should be
    implemented by backend-specific objects, like stage
    implementations and ClutterDeviceManager sub-classes, and
    allows dealing with class-specific event translation;

  - ClutterStageX11 implements EventTranslator, and deals with the
    stage-relative X11 events coming from the X11 event source;

  - ClutterStageGLX overrides EventTranslator, in order to
    deal with the INTEL_GLX_swap_event extension, and it chains up
    to the X11 default implementation;

  - ClutterDeviceManagerX11 has been split into two separate classes,
    one that deals with core and (optionally) XI1 events, and the
    other that deals with XI2 events; the selection is done at run-time,
    since the core+XI1 and XI2 mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

All the other backends we officially support still use their own
custom event source and translation function, but the end goal is to
migrate them to the translate_event() virtual function, and have the
event source be a shared part of Clutter core.

f5f066df9c Try to clean up how we handle actor transformations
When building actor relative transforms, instead of using the matrix
stack to combine transformations and making assumptions about what is
currently on the stack we now just explicitly initialize an identity
matrix and apply transforms to that.

This removes the full_vertex_t typedef for internal transformation code
and we just use ClutterVertex.

ClutterStage now implements apply_transform like any other actor now
and the code we had in _cogl_setup_viewport has been moved to the
stage's apply_transform instead.

ClutterStage now tracks an explicit projection matrix and viewport
geometry. The projection matrix is derived from the perspective whenever
that changes, and the viewport is updated when the stage gets a new
allocation. The SYNC_MATRICES mechanism has been removed in favour of
_clutter_stage_dirty_viewport/projection() APIs that get used when
switching between multiple stages to ensure cogl has the latest
information about the onscreen framebuffer.

f44ccba42e events: Add platform-data to allocated Events
Events allocated by Clutter should have a pointer to platform-specific
data; this would allow backends to add separate structures for holding
ancillary data, whilst retaining the ClutterEvent structure for use on
the stack.

In theory, for Clutter 2.x we might just want to drop Event and use an
opaque structure, or a typed data structure inheriting from
GTypeInstance instead.

52a78a7220 analysis: FALSE/0 used in pointer context
While this is totally fine (0 in the pointer context will be converted
in the right internal NULL representation, which could be a value with
some bits to 1), I believe it's clearer to use NULL in the pointer
context.

It seems that, in most case, it's more an overlook than a deliberate
choice to use FALSE/0 as NULL, eg. copying a _COGL_GET_CONTEXT (ctx, 0)
or a g_return_val_if_fail (cond, 0) from a function returning a
gboolean.

bf7e6ae587 Add error reporting for create_context() failures
We kind of assume that stuff will break well before during the
ClutterBackend::create_context() implementation if we fail to create a
GL context. We do, however, have error reporting in place inside the
Backend API to catch those cases. Unfortunately, since we switched to
lazy initialization of the Stage, there can be a case of GL context
creation failure that still leads to a successful initialization - and a
segmentation fault later on. This is clearly Not Good™.

Let's try to catch a failure in all the places calling create_context()
and report back to the user the error in a meaningful way, before
crashing and burning.

79acb088e7 Remove mentions of the FSF address
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.

Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.

As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

0057755854 profiling: Adds initial UProf support across clutter
UProf is a small library that aims to help applications/libraries provide
domain specific reports about performance.  It currently provides high
precision timer primitives (rdtsc on x86) and simple counters, the ability
to link statistics between optional components at runtime and makes report
generation easy.

This adds initial accounting for:
- Total mainloop time
- Painting
- Picking
- Layouting
- Idle time

The timing done by uprof is of wall clock time. It's not based on stochastic
samples we simply sample a counter at the start and end.  When dealing with
the complexities of GPU drivers and with various kinds of IO this form of
profiling can be quite enlightening as it will be able to represent where
your application is blocking unlike tools such as sysprof.

To enable uprof accounting you must configure Clutter with --enable-profile
and have uprof-0.2 installed from git://git.moblin.org/uprof

If you want to see a report of statistics when Clutter applications exit you
should export CLUTTER_PROFILE_OUTPUT_REPORT=1 before running them.

Just a final word of caution; this stuff is new and the manual nature of
adding uprof instrumentation means it is prone to some errors when modifying
code.  This just means that when you question strange results don't rule out
a mistake in the instrumentation.  Obviously though we hope the benfits out
weigh e.g.  by focusing on very key stats and by having automatic reporting.

568c29ba49 Validate that the GL version is >= 1.2
There is a new internal Cogl function called _cogl_check_driver_valid
which looks at the value of the GL_VERSION string to determine whether
the driver is supported. Clutter now calls this after the stage is
realized. If it fails then the stage is marked as unrealized and a
warning is shown.

_cogl_features_init now also checks the version number before getting
the function pointers for glBlendFuncSeparate and
glBlendEquationSeparate. It is not safe to just check for the presence
of the functions because some drivers may define the function without
fully implementing the spec.

The GLES version of _cogl_check_driver_valid just always returns TRUE
because there are no version requirements yet.

Eventually the function could also check for mandatory extensions if
there were any.

12af275139 [cogl] Make sure Cogl always knows the current window geometry
Because Cogl defines the origin of viewport and window coordinates to be
top-left it always needs to know the size of the current window so that Cogl
window/viewport coordinates can be transformed into OpenGL coordinates.

This also fixes cogl_read_pixels to use the current draw buffer height
instead of the viewport height to determine the OpenGL y coordinate to use
for glReadPixels.

15d7a86621 [backends] Remove the idea of offscreen stages from all backends
The only backend that tried to implement offscreen stages was the GLX backend
and even this has apparently be broken for some time without anyone noticing.

The property still remains and since the property already clearly states that
it may not work I don't expect anyone to notice.

This simplifies quite a bit of the GLX code which is very desireable from the
POV that we want to start migrating window system code down to Cogl and the
simpler the code is the more straight forward this work will be.

In the future when Cogl has a nicely designed API for framebuffer objects then
re-implementing offscreen stages cleanly for *all* backends should be quite
straightforward.

83b4ec7a12 units: Cache the pixels value inside Units
When computing the pixels value of a ClutterUnits value we should
be caching the value to avoid recomputing for every call of
clutter_units_to_pixels(). We already have a flag telling us to
return the cached value, but we miss the mechanism to evict the
cache whenever the Backend settings affecting the conversion, that
is default font and resolution, change.

In order to implement the eviction we can use a "serial"; the
Backend will have an internal serial field which we retrieve and
put inside the ClutterUnits structure (we split one of the two
64 bit padding fields into two 32 bit fields to maintain ABI); every
time we call clutter_units_to_pixels() we compare the units serial
with that of the Backend; if they match and pixels_set is set to
TRUE then we just return the stored pixels value. If the serials
do not match then we unset the pixels_set flag and recompute the
pixels value.

We can verify this by adding a simple test unit checking that
by changing the resolution of ClutterBackend we get different
pixel values for 1 em.

6988744db7 [stage] Rework the Stage implementation class
Instead of using ClutterActor for the base class of the Stage
implementation we should extend the StageWindow interface with
the required bits (geometry, realization) and use a simple object
class.

This require a wee bit of changes across Backend, Stage and
StageWindow, even though it's mostly re-shuffling.

First of all, StageWindow should get new virtual functions:

  * geometry:
    - resize()
    - get_geometry()

  * realization
    - realize()
    - unrealize()

This covers all the bits that we use from ClutterActor currently
inside the stage implementations.

The ClutterBackend::create_stage() virtual function should create
a StageWindow, and not an Actor (it should always have been; the
fact that it returned an Actor was a leak of the black magic going
on underneath). Since we never guaranteed ABI compatibility for
the Backend class, this is not a problem.

Internally to ClutterStage we can finally drop the shenanigans of
setting/unsetting actor flags on the implementation: if the realization
succeeds, for instance, we set the REALIZED flag on the Stage and
we're done.

As an initial proof of concept, the X11 and GLX stage implementations
have been ported to the New World Order(tm) and show no regressions.

aa1246e891 [backend] Abstract the GL context creation
This is the another step into abstracting the backend operations
that are currently spread all across the board back into the
backend implementations where they belong.

The GL context creation, for instance, is demanded to the stage
realization which makes it a critical path for every operation
that is GL-context bound. This usually does not make any difference
since we realize the default stage, but at some point we might
start looking into avoiding the default stage realization in order
to make the Clutter startup faster.

It also makes the code maintainable because every part is self
contained and can be reworked with the minimum amount of pain.

which I can only track down to clutter_backend_glx_ensure_current()

is not correct realized. That should lead to a glXMakeCurrent(None)

d6d208da7d Remove Units from the public API
With the recent change to internal floating point values, ClutterUnit
has become a redundant type, defined to be a float. All integer entry
points are being internally converted to floating point values to be
passed to the GL pipeline with the least amount of conversion.

ClutterUnit is thus exposed as just a "pixel with fractionary bits",
and not -- as users might think -- as generic, resolution and device
independent units. not that it was the case, but a definitive amount
of people was convinced it did provide this "feature", and was flummoxed
about the mere existence of this type.

So, having ClutterUnit exposed in the public API doubles the entry
points and has the following disadvantages:

  - we have to maintain twice the amount of entry points in ClutterActor
  - we still do an integer-to-float implicit conversion
  - we introduce a weird impedance between pixels and "pixels with
    fractionary bits"
  - language bindings will have to choose what to bind, and resort
    to manually overriding the API
    + *except* for language bindings based on GObject-Introspection, as
      they cannot do manual overrides, thus will replicate the entire
      set of entry points

For these reason, we should coalesces every Actor entry point for
pixels and for ClutterUnit into a single entry point taking a float,
like:

  void clutter_actor_set_x (ClutterActor *self,
                            gfloat        x);
  void clutter_actor_get_size (ClutterActor *self,
                               gfloat       *width,
                               gfloat       *height);
  gfloat clutter_actor_get_height (ClutterActor *self);

etc.

The issues I have identified are:

  - we'll have a two cases of compiler warnings:
    - printf() format of the return values from %d to %f
    - clutter_actor_get_size() taking floats instead of unsigned ints
  - we'll have a problem with varargs when passing an integer instead
    of a floating point value, except on 64bit platforms where the
    size of a float is the same as the size of an int

To be clear: the *intent* of the API should not change -- we still use
pixels everywhere -- but:

  - we remove ambiguity in the API with regard to pixels and units
  - we remove entry points we get to maintain for the whole 1.0
    version of the API
  - we make things simpler to bind for both manual language bindings
    and automatic (gobject-introspection based) ones
  - we have the simplest API possible while still exposing the
    capabilities of the underlying GL implementation

f4df307ddd [backend] Update the viewport when updating the GL context
Bug 1442 - multistage, same-window resize events invalidate stage

When ensuring that the GL context is attached to the correct
ClutterStage we need to set the SYNC_MATRICES flag on the stage
itself. This is needed in case the size of the new stage does
not match the size of the old -- thus requiring a call to
glViewport() when the paint cycle starts.

c5afd98416 Add gobject-introspection annotations
Add annotations such as (transfer-none) (out) (element-type ClutterActor),
and so forth to the doc comments as appropriate.

The annotations added here are a combination of the annotations previously
in gir-repository for Clutter and annotations found in a review of all
return values with that were being parsed with a transfer of "full".

355555c1bf Store the units-per-em inside the Backend
Instead of recomputing the number of units needed to fit in
an em each time clutter_units_em() is called, we can store this
value into the default Backend along with the resolution and
font name. The value should also be updated each time the
resolution and font are changed, to keep it up to date.
