It's effectively used by mutter by abusing a ClutterTimeline to scedule
updates. Timelines are not really suited in places that is done, as it
is really just about getting a single new update scheduled whenever
suitable, so expose the API so we can use it directly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1218
We could call clutter_stage_schedule_update() and it wouldn't actually
schedule anything, as the master frame clock only tries to reschedule if
1) there is an active timeline, 2) there are pending relayouts, 3) there
are pending redraws, or 4) there are pending events. Thus, a call to
clutter_stage_schedule_update() didn't have any effect if it was called
at the wrong time.
Fix this by adding a boolean state "needs_update" to the stage, set on
clutter_stage_schedule_update() and cleared on
_clutter_stage_do_update(), that will make the master clock reschedule
an update if it is TRUE.

We need to use the framebuffer of the view instead of the onscreen
framebuffer when painting the damage region, otherwise the redraw clips
on rotated monitors won't be shown correctly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
Compare, tile by tile, whether actual damage actually changed any
pixels. While this requires mmap():ing DMA buffers and comparing their
content, we should only ever use shadow buffers when we're using the
software renderer, meaning mmap() is cheap as it doesn't involve any
downloading.
This works by making the shadow framebuffer double buffered, while
keeping track of damage history. When we're about to swap the onscreen
buffer, we compare what part of the posted damage actually changed,
records that into a damage history, then given the onscreen buffer age,
collect all actual damage for that age. The intersection of these tiles,
and the actual damage, is then used when blitting the shadow buffer to
the onscreen framebuffer.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1157https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
Move the damage history tracking to a new ClutterDamageHistory helper
type. The aim is to be able to track damage history elsewhere without
reimplementing the data structure and tracking logic.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
This fixes the last "copy everything" paths when clutter doesn't
directly paint onto the onscreen framebuffer. It adds a new hook into
the stage view called before the swap buffer, as at this point, we have
the swap buffer damag regions ready, which corresponds to the regions we
must blit according to the damage reported to clutter.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
The rest didn't change, so only actually paint the part of the offscreen
that was composited as part of the stage painting. In practice, this
means that, unless a shadow buffer is used, we now only paint the
damaged part of the stage, and copy the damage part of the offscreen to
the onscreen.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
We failed to use the buffer age when monitors were rotated, as when they
are, we first composite to an offscreen framebuffer, then later again to
the onscreen. The buffer age checking happened on the offscreen, and an
offscreen being single buffered, they can't possible support buffer
ages.
Instead, move the buffer age check to check the actual onscreen
framebuffer. The offscreen to onscreen painting is still always full
frame, but that will be fixed in a later commit.

The manual "cleaning" of the viewport and projection state is removed,
and we only ever try to invalidate the state so that it'll be updated
next time. Change the API used to reflect this.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
The stage would fetch the front framebuffer and set the viewport and
projection matrix, but if we are going to more than one front buffer,
that won't work, so let the stage just pass the viewport and projection
matrix to the view and have the view deal with the framebuffer(s).

Will be used for logging to identify what view a log entry concerns. For
the native and nested backend this is the name of the output the CRTC is
assigned to drive; for X11 it's just "X11 screen", and for the legacy
"X11 screen" emulation mode of the nested backend it's called "legacy
nested".

There's no reason to notify the surface that its geometry changed when
the visibility of the actor changes. This is only needed to update the
outputs of the surface, so do that directly instead.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1235
We started listening to notify::mapped with commit
5eb5f72434 in order to emit
wl_surface.leave events consistently when a surface gets hidden. This
caused a problem with the ClutterClones used in the overview, since
those temporarily map and unmap the windows for painting, spamming
wl_surface.leave and enter events to all surfaces.
We can easily fix that by also treating mapped clones as mapped, which
means the surface should also be on a wl_output when the overview is
shown.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1141https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1235
All existing users of clutter_actor_has_mapped_clones() actually want to
know whether the actor is being cloned by a visible clone, it doesn't
matter to them if that clone is attached to an actor somewhere else in
the tree or to the actor itself.
So make clutter_actor_has_mapped_clones() a bit more convenient to use
and also check the clones of the parent-actors in that function.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1235
We started listening to "notify::position" on surface actors with commit
08e4cb54. This commit was done to fix a regression from commit cf1edff9,
which forgot to handle some cases like the actual WindowActor and not
the SurfaceActor (which is a child of the WindowActor) moving (that was
fixed by listening to MetaWindows "position-changed" signal). Also that
commit introduced meta_wayland_surface_update_outputs_recursively(),
which updates the outputs of all (sub-)surfaces in case any position
changed and made sure subsurfaces also get their outputs updated in case
the parent actor moved.
Connecting to the "notify::position" signal, which the above commit also
did is now superflous though because position changes will queue a
relayout and the actors allocation will change during the next
allocation cycle, notifying the "allocation" property which we also
listen to.
So save some resources and stop listening to that signal.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1235
The comment in _clutter_actor_get_allocation_clip() explicitely notices
that it doesn't need the behavior of doing an immediate relayout as
clutter_actor_get_allocation_box() does. The comment is also still valid
since the code calling _clutter_actor_get_allocation_clip() checks for
priv->needs_allocation just before.
So let's just use the allocation directly here instead of going through
that function.

We don't have enough Xlib code in mutter ...
Joking aside, it can be useful to make the cursor invisible
without hiding it, for example for replacing the actual cursor
with an actor in gnome-shell; the real cursor should still
update the focus surface in that case, and not sneak into
screenshots or -casts.

We're iterating inside the PipeWire loop when detecting PipeWire errors,
and shouldn't destroy the PipeWire objects mid-iteration. Avoid this by
first disabling the stream src (effectively stopping the recording),
then notifying about it being closed in an idle callback. The
notification eventually makes the rest of the screen cast code clean up
the objects, including the src and the associated PipeWire objects, but
will do so outside the PipeWire loop iteration.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1251https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1251
In the native backend, the MetaRenderer manages the view by creating one
per CRTC, but until now the MetaStageX11 managed the view for the X11
backend. This caused some issues as it meant meta_renderer_get_views()
not returning anything, and that the view of the X11 screen not being a
MetaRendererView, while in the other backends, all views are.
Fix this by moving the view management responsibility to
MetaRendererX11Cm, and have MetaStageX11 only operate on it via
meta_renderer_x11_cm_*() API. The MetaRendererX11Cm takes care of making
sure the view is always added to the list in the renderer, and turning
X11 screen sizes into "layouts" etc.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1251
"Legacy" is a misleading name, it's just how the native backend and the
X11 backend behaves differently. Instead rename it to 'add_view()' and
add the sanity check to the caller.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1251
A DMA buffer might not be able to scanout, and in that case the import
with GBM_BO_USE_SCANOUT will fail. Handle that by failing to scanout,
effectively falling back to compositing.

Since PIDs are inherently insecure because they are reused after a
certain amount of processes was started, it's possible the client PID
was spoofed by the client.
So make sure users of the meta_window_get_pid() API are aware of those
issues and add a note to the documentation that the PID can not be
totally trusted.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1180
Since the PID of a window can't change as long as the window exists, we
can safely cache it after we got a valid PID once, so do that by adding
a new `window->client_pid` private property.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1180
The shell uses the PID of windows to map them to apps or to find out
which window/app triggered a dialog. It currently fails to do that in
some situations on Wayland, because meta_window_get_pid() only returns a
valid PID for x11 clients.
So use the client PID instead of the X11-exclusive _NET_WM_PID property
to find out the PID of the process that started the window. We can do
that by simply renaming the already existing
meta_window_get_client_pid() API to meta_window_get_pid() and moving
the old API providing the _NET_WM_PID to meta_window_get_netwm_pid().

ClutterBoxLayout's layout policy of using the generic ClutterActor
align/expand properties for children that are expanded and a custom
meta otherwise is confusing, in particular as the x-fill/y-fill
defaults don't match the default CLUTTER_ACTOR_ALIGN_FILL align.
StBoxLayout's own custom child meta (which was deprecated last
cycle) is probably the only consumer. And luckily, the St meta
uses different x-fill/y-fill default that match the ClutterActor
defaults, so removing it will not affect code that doesn't use
the deprecated properties themselves.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1265
This stuff has been deprecated for a very long time, and given that
ClutterBoxLayout is most commonly used via StBoxLayout, the impact of
removing it should be low. It will however open the door to further
cleanups.
