There are two ways for applications to provide a high contrast icon:
1. install an icon into the HighContrast theme
2. install a symbolic icon into the default hicolor theme
The latter is preferred nowadays, and implemented in the high-contrast
CSS variant by enforcing the symbolic icon style.
However together with the way we currently enable/disable high-contrast,
this can lead to the following race:
1. the GTK theme is changed from HighContrast
2. we reload the default stylesheet
3. the icon style changes to "regular", so we request a
new icon from the HighContrast icon theme
4. the icon theme is changed from HighContrast
5. we evict existing icons from the cache
6. we reload icons for the new icon theme; however as we
find a pending request (from 3), we re-use it
7. the request from 3 finishes, and we end up with a
wrong icon in the cache
The simplest fix is to change the icon theme before the GTK theme: Unlike the
theme name, the icon style is encoded in the cache key, so we won't re-use
an old (and incorrect) request in that case.

Commit c1ec7b2ff meant to fall back to the base layout in case
a variant like `fr+oss` is set up, but as we are checking for
'+' on the array rather than the layout name, the fallback only
"works" for a layout that is literally called '+', whoops.

Doing blocking IO in a graphical UI is bad, doing it in the compositor
is much much worse. So even if handling VPN requests is a relatively
rare event, doing it asynchronously is better.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2386
While we can use the libnm API directly from JS, the call will
synchronously load the VPN service descriptions from disk.
Previously we were lowering the impact by caching the result,
but as we stopped doing that, it becomes more important to address
the issue properly and move it off to a thread.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2386
libnm doesn't only search for plugins in the regular VPN plugin directory,
but also in the legacy location and the directory pointed to by the
NM_VPN_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable (if set).
We don't monitor the additional directories, so it's possible for our cache
to become outdated.
Instead of trying to play catch-up with libnm's internals, do what nm-applet
does and use the appropriate API to look up the plugin on each request.

The g_file_replace_contents_async() API can potentially call fsync() from
the thread calling into it upon completion. This can have disasterous
effects when run from the compositor main thread such as complete stalls.
This is a followup to 86a00b6872 which
assumed (like the rest of us) that the fsync() would be performed on the
thread that was doing the I/O operations.
You can verify this with an strace -e fsync and cause terminal to display
a command completed notification (eg: from a backdrop window).
This also fixes a lifecycle bug for the variant, as
g_file_replace_contents_async() does not copy the data during the operation
as that is the responsibility of the caller. Instead, we just use a GBytes
variant and reference the variant there.

If the sessionMode does not allow to show the overview, we should also
hide an already visible overview.
This fixes a bug where, if the lockscreen was shown while the overview
was visible, the Ctrl+Alt+Tab popup would allow navigating inside the
overview because the overview actor is still mapped.

Set the key focus to the password field only after we got a request
(and therefore know that a password is requested) instead of using
`setInitialKeyFocus()`. This way we don't try to focus the password
field by default if we aren't showing it (e.g. in case the user has no
password or is using fingerprint login).
Also we have to move the call to `grab_key_focus()` to happen after
`_ensureOpen()`, because otherwise the ModalDialog will set the focus to
one of the buttons while opening itself.
Cherry-picked from commit 70203b58ca.

Just like switcher popups, popup menus don't play well together with
system modals, and generally have a lower priority. So just like
switcher popups, close popup menus when a system modal dialog pops
up.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1536
As system modal dialogs may open without user interaction (for instance
polkit or network agent requests), it is possible for them to pop up
while the app/window switcher is up.
The current result of having both up simultaneously is clearly broken,
so we can either dismiss the popup or prevent the modal dialog from
opening. Assume that the dialog indicates a more important action and
should therefore take precedence, so go with the former.

Since commit 87e60ed97843, geoclue no longer pretends that authorization
is useful for system-installed apps (as they can easily lie about their
ID). Unfortunately this broke our auto-location support in case Weather
is installed non-sandboxed, as we are waiting for an authorization that
will never happen.
Unbreak it by only requiring authorization when installed as Flatpak.

When commit c6cea277e replaced Shell.GenericContainer, the check
whether the required width exceeds the avilable width was changed
from using the minimum widths of items to the natural width of the
scroll view.
That doesn't work correctly, as the *natural* width may well exceed
the actually used width: SwitcherList bases its width request on
children's minimum sizes to force labels to ellipsize.
Fix this by using the minimum width of the scroll view's child instead.

Since commit 28c535e34, we use the timezone associated with the ICalTime
instead of the default timezone when converting to time_t. However while
that is correct for most events, for ICalTimes that don't have a timezone
associated we still want to fall back to the default timezone instead of
UTC.

We're storing in the texture cache images and scaled images appending
the scaling factor to the key. When a file changes the cache key
corresponding to that file is removed, but not the keys for the scaled
ones so that images in the cache are never reloaded.
This patch removes all keys from the cache related to the file that
changes, including those with the scaling factor.
A new set (hash table) was added to keep track of scale used to be able
to remove all possible images in the cache.
When the KEY is removed from the cache, we can look now in the scale set
for and each scale we also remove the key "KEY1.000000", "KEY2.000000",
etc.
Assuming that the number of used scales is small (I would typically
expect one or two), the overhead should be negligible.

If the GNOME shell crashes, we run a service that may disable
extensions. This is important so that users will not be locked out of
their own session in case an extension is causing crashes.
As this is a very agressive action, we tried to only do this in the
first two minutes of the session. Unfortunately, the logic was broken
and would result in an unclean session shutdown.
Fix this by using the newly introduced gnome-shell-disable-extensions
file. This is created by the extension subsystem for a period of time to
indicate the extensions may be the cause of a gnome-shell failure.
See
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-session/issues/43
for a log of the bug happening and the gnome-session part to fix this.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/858
When the extension system is loaded, create the
gnome-shell-disable-extensions file in the users runtime directory. This
file is automatically removed 60s later. The sole purpose of this file
is to be consumed by the systemd units. If the file exists, the systemd
units will disable extensions when the gnome-shell fails.

When removing a string from a settings list, we iterate over all
existing entries and copy all strings except the one that's being
removed to a new list, which is then written to GSettings.
However we currently always increment the index, so we end up with
a NULL entry in place of the removed entry, which is then interpreted
as the end of the list. In other words, we also remove all entries
that follow the removed string.
Fix this by looping over the list entries instead of the index, and
only increment the index for entries we copy.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1946
The whitelist is a list of well-known D-Bus names, which we then search
for the unique name we get from the method invocation - unsuccesfully.
Fix this by watching the bus for any name in the whitelist in order
to maintain a map from wel-known to unique name that we can use for
matching.

Since the notification message close button had no border, or mouse
over effect, there was no way to determine whether the mouse cursor
were over the button.
Improve this by adding a message-close-button class for the close
button, and a styling for its hovered state, based on media control
button styling.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/855
Increases contrast between normal and hovered states in
message-media-control buttons. Previously there was very little
difference between the two states, making it hard to distinguish
whether the mouse cursor was over the button.

Since commit mutter/a2a8f0cda we force the focus surface of the
meta-wayland-pointer to NULL while the pointer is hidden. This
introduced an issue with the magnifier, where we use
`set_pointer_visible` to hide the real cursor and show our own cursor at
the correct position: Because the meta-wayland-pointer is still used to
communicate with Wayland clients, the UI of the windows will not respond
to mouse movement anymore as soon as the real cursor is hidden.
To fix this, use the newly added API of MetaCursorTracker to switch back
to the old behavior while the magnifier is hiding the system cursor.
In the future and as a more correct fix, we might want to rewrite the
magnifier so it doesn't have to hide the cursor and can simply show the
default one (eg. by scaling the actual view instead of a clone of the
view).

When a user has no password and a polkit authentication is started,
instead of blindly initiating the admin session, show the regular
"Authentication Requested" dialog (but without the password entry). This
makes sure that the user's admin session is only effectively started
after the user chooses to proceed with the authentication, which
provides an extra confirmation step that can be vital for critical
tasks.
To do this, we show the dialog inside `_onUserChanged()` right after the
dialog was created instead of calling `performAuthentication()` from
`_onInitiate()`. The bug mentioned in `_onInitiate()` is no longer an
issue since we show the dialog in all cases now anyway.
Ideally we should use a different wording than "authentication" when the
user has no password set, and use "confirmation" instead. However polkit
already sends the requests with such messages (e.g. "Authentication is
required to configure software repositories"), and it's important to
show those to the user, so this patch keeps the regular wording.

Currently when dragging an icon to the space above or below the appGrid
to switch pages, we do so very quickly without checking when the last
page-switch happened. This makes it hard to move icons to pages which
are not the first or the last one, since the other pages are skipped
very quickly.
To fix this, add a timeout of 1 second that blocks switching pages after
a page-switch using drag overshoot occured.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1693
We currently always switch app pages when a dragged app icon
moves outside the grid boundaries, regardless of any previous
page switches. This makes it too easy to switch multiple pages
accidentally, so add a small threshold that the icon has to
move back towards the grid before allowing another page switch.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1693
There's no need for a `inhibitEventBlocker` interface. Since we connect
to "open-state-changed" of our folders in the AllView anyway, we can
just make the event blocker visible while a folder is opened, and hide
the event blocker during DnD.
This allows keeping the eventBlocker reactive at all times and fixes an
issue where DnD to create a new folder is impossible if no folders are
present because the eventBlocker would not get inhibited.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1652
