49233af465 clutter-backend-glx: Protect against unrefing the Cogl context twice
The dispose function may be called multiple times during destruction
so it needs to be resilient against destroying any resources
twice. This wasn't the case for the reference to the Cogl context.

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.

3d8445807a backend-glx: Remove redundant glFlush()
As noted in commit ce3f55292a an explict glFlush is needed for
both glBlitFramebuffer and glXCopySubBuffer.

_clutter_backend_glx_blit_sub_buffer was already doing an explicit
flush when using glBlitFramebuffer, so just do it unconditonally
and remove the call from clutter_stage_glx_redraw.

56d133f908 backend: Move event translators to the base class
In the future, we want event translators to be the way to handle events
in backends. For this reason, they should be a part of the base abstract
ClutterBackend class, and not an X11-only concept.

224280be22 backend: Invoke ClutterStageWindow::redraw by default
Instead of asking all backends to do that for us, we can call

move the stage implementation redraw inside the ClutterStageWindow

9be4cfe8a9 x11/stage: Use a global Window ↔ Stage relationship
Since we need to find the stage from the X11 Window, it's better to use

member is changed, instead of iterating over every stage handled by the

acf51259d2 x11: Store a back pointer to the backend in the stage
Since we access it in order to get the X11 Display pointer, it makes
sense to have the ClutterBackendX11 already available inside the
ClutterStageX11 structure, and avoid the pattern:

  ClutterBackend *backend = clutter_get_default_backend ();
  ClutterBackendX11 *backend_x11 = CLUTTER_BACKEND_X11 (backend);

which costs us a function call, a type cast and an unused variable.

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.

30296a3307 backend-glx: Avoid vblank waits/glFinish calls when throttling blits
If we have the GLX_SGI_video_sync extension then it's possible to always
keep track for the video sync counter each time we call glXSwapBuffers
or do a sub stage blit. This then allows us to avoid waiting before
issuing a blit if we can see that the counter has already progressed.

Also since we expect that glXCopySubBuffer is synchronized to the vblank
we don't need to use glFinish () in conjunction with the vblank wait
since the vblank wait's only purpose is to add a delay.

f37de23dec backend-glx: Make sure to throttle sub region blits
Neither glXCopySubBuffer or glBlitFramebuffer are integrated with the
swap interval of a framebuffer so that means when we do partial stage
updates (as Mutter does in response to window damage) then the blits
aren't throttled which means applications that throw lots of damage
events at the compositor can effectively cause Clutter to run flat out
taking up all the system resources issuing more blits than can even be
seen.

This patch now makes sure we use the GLX_SGI_video_sync or a
DRM_VBLANK_RELATIVE ioctl to throttle blits to the vblank frequency as
we do when using glXSwapBuffers.

630a2c5edc backend-glx: Provide copy_sub_buffer fallback
Currently glXCopySubBufferMESA is used for sub stage redraws, but in case
a driver does not support GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer we fall back to redrawing
the complete stage which isn't really optimal.

So instead to directly fallback to complete redraws try using GL_EXT_framebuffer_blit
to do the BACK to FRONT buffer copies.

ec59af290c analysis: None used in pointer context
While this is totally fine (None is 0L and, in the pointer context, will

of None when we talk about pointers.

That means that calling it once in clutter_backend_glx_get_features

c0d5af5de5 Adds initial clipped redraw support to Clutter
A new (internal only currently) API, _clutter_actor_queue_clipped_redraw
can be used to queue a redraw along with a clip rectangle in actor
coordinates. This clip rectangle propagates up to the stage and clutter
backend which may optionally use the information to optimize stage
redraws. The GLX backend in particular may scissor the next redraw to
the clip rectangle and use GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer to present the stage
subregion.

The intention is that any actors that can naturally determine the bounds
of updates should queue clipped redraws to reduce the cost of updating
small regions of the screen.

Notes:
» If GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer isn't available then the GLX backend
  ignores any clip rectangles.

» queuing multiple clipped redraws will result in the bounding box of
  each clip rectangle being used.

» If a clipped redraw has a height > 300 pixels then it's promoted into
  a full stage redraw, so that the GPU doesn't end up blocking too long
  waiting for the vsync to reach the optimal position to avoid tearing.

  » Note: no empirical data was used to come up with this threshold so
    we may need to tune this.

» Currently only ClutterX11TexturePixmap makes use of this new API. This
  is done via a new "queue-damage-redraw" signal that is emitted when
  the pixmap is updated. The default handler queues a clipped redraw
  with the assumption that the pixmap is being painted as a rectangle
  covering the actors transformed allocation. If you subclass
  ClutterX11TexturePixmap and change how it's painted you now also
  need to override the signal handler and queue your own redraw.

  Technically this is a semantic break, but it's assumed that no one
  is currently doing this.

This still leaves a few unsolved issues with regards to optimizing sub
stage redraws that need to be addressed in further work so this can only
be considered a stepping stone a this point:

» Because we have no reliable way to determine if the painting of any
  given actor is being modified any optimizations implemented using
  _clutter_actor_queue_redraw_with_clip must be overridable by a
  subclass, and technically must be opt-in for existing classes to avoid
  a change in semantics. E.g. consider that a user connects to the paint
  signal for ClutterTexture and paints a circle instead of a rectangle.
  In this case any original logic to queue clipped redraws would be
  incorrect.

» Currently only the implementation of an actor has enough information
  with which to queue clipped redraws. E.g. It is not possible for
  generic code in clutter-actor.c to queue a clipped redraw when hiding
  an actor because actors have no way to report a "paint box". (remember
  actors can draw outside their allocation and actors with depth may
  also be projected outside of their allocation)

  » The current plan is to add a actor_class->get_paint_cuboid()
    virtual so actors can report a bounding cube for everything they
    would draw in their current state and use that to queue clipped
    redraws against the stage by projecting the paint cube into stage
    coordinates.

» Our heuristics for promoting clipped redraws into full redraws to
  avoid blocking the GPU while we wait for the vsync need improving:

  » vsync issues aren't relevant for redirected/composited applications
    so they should use different heuristics. In this case we instead
    need to trade off the cost of blitting when using glXCopySubBuffer
    vs promoting to a full redraw and flipping instead.

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.

a9941e9499 debug: Split debugging notes from behavioural modifiers
Some of the ClutterDebugFlags are not meant as a logging facility: they
actually change Clutter's behaviour at run-time.

It would be useful to have this distinction ratified, and thus split
ClutterDebugFlags into two: one DebugFlags for logging facilities and
another set of flags for behavioural changes.

This split is warranted because:

  • it should be possible to do "CLUTTER_DEBUG=all" and only have
    log messages on the output

  • it should be possible to use behavioural modifiers even on a
    Clutter that has been compiled without debugging messages
    support

The commit adds two new debugging flags:

  ClutterPickDebugFlags - controlled by the CLUTTER_PICK environment
                          variable

  ClutterPaintDebugFlags - controlled by the CLUTTER_PAINT environment
                           variable

The PickDebugFlags are:

  nop-picking
  dump-pick-buffers

While the PaintDebugFlags is:

  disable-swap-events

The mechanism is equivalent to the CLUTTER_DEBUG environment variable,
but it does not depend on the debug level selected when configuring and
compiling Clutter. The picking and painting debugging flags are
initialized at clutter_init() time.

8c9472bc4c cogl: deprecates cogl_check_extension
OpenGL is an implementation detail for Cogl so it's not appropriate to

Clutter can use the events that notify swap completion as a means to

Instead, we can create a dummy Window from create_context() itself and

window.

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.

5157da9fc8 x11: Switch back to RGB visuals by default
Since asking for ARGB by default is still somewhat experimental on X11
and not every toolkit or complex widgets (like WebKit) still do not like
dealing with ARGB visuals, we should switch back to RGB by default - now
that at least we know it works.

For applications (and toolkit integration libraries) that want to enable
the ClutterStage:use-alpha property there is a new function:

  void clutter_x11_set_use_argb_visual (gboolean use_argb);

which needs to be called before clutter_init().

to force this value off at run-time.

821e622de6 Don't set the GLX_TRANSPARENT_TYPE attribute to choose an FBConfig
When Clutter tries to pick an ARGB visual it tried to set the
GLX_TRANSPARENT_TYPE attribute of the FBConfig to
GLX_TRANSPARENT_RGB. However the code to do this was broken so that it
was actually trying to set the non-existant attribute number 0x8008
instead. Mesa silently ignored this so it appeared as if it was
working but the Nvidia drivers do not like it.

It appears that the TRANSPARENT_TYPE attribute is not neccessary for
getting an ARGB visual anyway and instead it is intended to support
color-key transparency. Therefore we can just remove it and get all of
the FBConfigs. Then if we need an ARGB visual we can just walk the
list to look for one with depth == 32.

The fbconfig is now stored in a single variable instead of having a
separate variable for the rgb and rgba configs because the old code
only ever retrieved one of them anyway.

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.

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.

172074fd29 [glx] Perform more checks before calling glXMakeCurrent
Right now we just check for a NULL stage before calling glXMakeCurrent().

We can, though, get a valid stage without an implementation attached to
it while we are disposing a stage after a CLUTTER_DELETE event, since the
events processing is performed on a vblank-locked basis.

6e6d0a5ea6 [glx] Explicitly set the depth size for GLX visuals
When requesting a GLX visual from the X server we should explicitly
set the GL_DEPTH_SIZE and the GL_ALPHA_SIZE bits, otherwise some
functionality might just not work, or work unreliably.
