Util.ensureActorVisibleInScrollView takes care of the potential scroll view fade
effect in order to compute the scroll offset, reading the ScrollViewFade's
`vfade-offset` property. This was correctly working until gnome 3.30 cycle.
However such property isn't defined now because since gjs 1.54, it can only
fetch introspected properties and St.ScrollViewFade was considered a private API
not exposed by gir.
Fix this by also introspecting st-scroll-view-fade sources.
Not being considered private anymore, install the header.

Updating the :first/:last-child pseudo classes can result in a lot
of unnecessary style changes when bulk-adding children to a container,
as every child ends up as the new last child.
Address this by deferring the style change to an idle, so we only do
the work once for the actual first and last child.

Images are loaded either with a supplied fixed size, or using the "native"
dimensions of the file. When creating a content image from the loaded data,
we currently simply apply this directly to the preferred size.
This works usually fine: GdkPixbuf will always keep the aspect ratio, so
if only one dimension is provided, the other will be adjusted accordingly:
Loading a 200x200 image with a requested size of (100, -1) will result in
a 100x100 content image.
There is a catch though: GdkPixbuf will only scale *down* to the requested
size, no up. That is, loading a 100x100 image with a requested size of
(200, -1) will result in a 100x100 pixbuf. But as we assume that the pixbuf
size matches the requested size, the image content ends up with 200x100.
Fix this by explicitly handling the case where only one size was supplied,
and make the other dimension take the aspect ratio into account

The parameters that may affect the icon on ::style-changed are more size

With a high enough amount of actors, there may be enough theme nodes and
signal connections on StTheme::custom-stylesheets-changed that
g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by*() on dispose becomes expensive, this may

linear lookups for the matching func/data.

A window being unmanaged can cause the ShellApp to be removed from
the ShellAppSystem, which if we are unlucky is the app's last
reference, causing it to be disposed and freed. It would be bad if this
happened before we finished handling the signal.
Use g_signal_connect_object to ensure that a reference is held to
the ShellApp for the duration of the signal handler, delaying its
last-unref.
In particular, when a signal handler calls _shell_app_remove_window(),
there is a brief period for which ShellApp breaks the intended
invariant (see !497) that app->running_state is non-NULL if and only if
app->running_state->windows is also non-NULL (non-empty). Freeing the
ShellApp at this point would cause a crash. This seems likely to be the
root cause of <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/750>,

Actors themed through CSS should ideally get sizes and positions that
conform to the "pixel grid". A notorious example is the panel that has a
height of 1.86em. On unchanged font settings and hidpi that translates to
55px, which leaves the workarea with "half pixels" that hidpi wayland
applications don't know how to fully cover.
If the requested height is a multiple of the scale factor, the workarea
and maximized applications can then work on full pixels.

With StImageContent, the meaning of passing -1 as size parameter changed
from "load the image at its preferred size" to "abort the session". It
is therefore no longer possible to just load the image and then have it

Setting the size from CSS is useful though, so to still allow that, fall
back to the actor's size (which can be determined by the style).

Since we started to support tray icons on wayland, the icon we show
is not the actual XEmbed window. Instead, we let mutter create a
MetaWindow for it, then use its window actor as source for a clone
we (or nowadays: extensions) can add, remove and destroy freely.
To not let the real icon get in the way, we set an empty input shape
and make its window actor fully transparent. This works OK on X11,
but on wayland all events still go through Clutter, so any reactive
surface actor inside the window actor will block events for any actors
underneath (and status icons go into the top-windows group, so almost
all actors are affected).
Luckily we can pile another hack onto the pile of status icon hacks ...
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/191
While mapping the :first/:last-child pseudo classes directly to the
ClutterActor:first-child/:last-child properties allows for an easy

applying the classes to visible children makes much more sense, so
change our implementation to do the same.

When we grab a screenshot of a framebuffer scaled shell, we shoudl apply the
device scale to the image surface, while the monitor scaling should be applied
to the cursor surface, so that it's painted at proper coordinates and in proper
size in the generated image.
This is not needed for XWayland clients as they are not scaled anyways, while
for wayland clients that are painted in multiple monitors, this might cause
a lower quality cursor in the lower dpi monitor, because the cursor sprite is
generated for the monitor scale, and not for the surface scale.

Under wayland, if the cursor should be included when doing a fullscreen
screenshot, we can rely on mutter "paint" signal to have it composited for free.
Otherwise if it's not requested, we can use the "actors-painted" signal to get a
stage texture before the mouse overlay has been added.
Instead, under X11 or when only a window screenshot is requested, we still
need to draw it manually.

It might happen that the target clutter actor that we return on call
of st_texture_cache_load_sliced_image might be destroyed while the
loading task is still running. To protect from this, let's connect

stop the task.
This allows to safely reuse the return value of this function to
cancel the execution and avoiding that load_callback is called
even for a request that is not anymore under our control.

When loading an actor for a sliced image actor, we can now use the

Instead of just passing a scale when getting a cached icon, pass both a
'paint_scale', the scale of which the icon will be painted on the
stage, and a 'resource_scale', the scale of the resource used for
painting.
In effect, the texture size will use the scale 'paint_scale * resource_scale'
in a ceiled value while the size of the actor will use 'paint_scale' when
determining the size.
this would load a bigger texture, but the downscaling would keep the visual
quality.

Create the surfaces for background shadows at scaled sizes and then draw on them
using logical coordinates, by setting the surface device scale accordingly.
Use the said surface scale when generating the actual shadow cairo pattern
but in such case, to reduce the number of code changes, is better to work in
absolute coordinates, and to do so:
1) Create a temporary shadow-spec copy with scaled values to absolute sizes
2) Invert the scaling on the shadow matrix
3) Do the actual painting in absolute coordinates
4) Set the shadow matrix scaling back to the logical coordinates.
Finally scale down the created shadow pattern surface size when painting it,
applying again a reverse scale to the matrix.

A fractional resource scale would mean we never use the fast path for

The fade shader will draw the fade effect up until the border pixel. If

consists of more than one physical pixel.

This commit makes StWidget manage the scale of which its associated
resources should be multiplied with. The resource scale is calculated
by clutter, and is retrieved by clutter_actor_get_resource_scale(). Due
to the resource scale not always being available, the getter may fail,
and the actual widget that draws the content will have to deal with
this situation.
As the resource scale depends on where on the stage the widget is drawn,
the resource scale will in general be available once the widget is
mapped.

Since commit deec0bf255, the texture cache is based on ClutterImage
rather than ClutterTexture. As ClutterImage (like all ClutterContent)
is only concerned with painting, it doesn't influence the size of the

size 0x0 after the image has been loaded.
Set up the actor to follow the content's size instead, to get closer

_st_create_shadow_pipeline_from_actor creates shadow pipelines
from actors. This function special-cases ClutterTexture as a
small performance improvement, since we can have access to the
CoglTexture easily with it. However, recent commits removed all
usage of ClutterTexture from GNOME Shell, rendering this optimization
useless. Instead, actors now may have a ClutterImage set as
their content, that can be used instead.

and use the texture of the image when it is available.

The last patch in the series, this one adapts StShadowHelper
to received a CoglFramebuffer. This is where we first touch

Same case of the previous patch; _st_paint_shadow_with_opacity()

The cautious reader might notice that this commit apparently goes
against the long-term goal, for it introduces more instances of
cogl_get_draw_framebuffer(). This is not wrong, but these introduced
ones will be removed later on, when ClutterActor.paint() receives
a CoglFramebuffer as a parameter instead.

This is in preparation for a future where only explicit frambuffer
APIs are available, i.e., cogl_get_draw_framebuffer() does not

This was called here just to end up emitting ::installed-changed,
which would trigger other g_app_info_get_all() calls. Cache it here
so it may be reused later on.
Handling those events is neccessary if a touch event that pressed down a
button turns out to be a gesture. In this case the button should be
released without emitting the clicked signal.
After loading the GdkPixbuf, StTextureCache unconditionally
creates a ClutterImage and, if it's not in the cache, add
it to the cache. That's a waste of resources when the image
is already committed to the texture cache.
Fix that by reusing the ClutterImage of the cache if it is
already there; otherwise, create a new ClutterImage as we
were previously doing.
ClutterTexture is a deprecated class that is simultaneously
an actor, and the content of the actor. Clutter's new model
is to separate painting (via ClutterContent) from actors.
Currently, StTextureCache relies on ClutterTexture to store
the loaded textures. This not only does not match the latest
practices of Clutter, but also generates various compile-time
warnings.
Port StTextureCache to store ClutterImages instead of storing
ClutterTextures. ClutterImage exposes the internal CoglTexture,
so no helpers are needed to match the current StTextureCache
API. Aspect ratio was dropped, but from my testing, it doesn't
change anything.
All callers have been updated to use MetaSoundPlayer. This drops direct
usage of libcanberra-gtk, and the X11 connection indirectly. One thing
worth noting is that we pass less metadata (eg. event x/y that might be
used for surrounding effects). This was all largely unused, so the
MetaSoundPlayer was made simpler.

When computing the effective border color, we operate on colors with

If the actor is not on the stage yet (i.e. does not have a theme
node), but has a paint state cached, we currently fail to invalidate
it, which will lead to the actor painting with old contents once it
gets onto the stage.
This commit fixes the issue by changing our invalidation strategy;
previously we were looking at the widget's own theme node to determine
if it should be invalidated or not.
Now we look at the theme nodes of our cached paint states. When the
widget is mapped on stage, those are the same as the widget's own
theme node, but when the widget is not on the stage, we'll still be
able to invalidate them.
As part of this, we move the invalidation API to StThemeNodePaintState,
which is a more natural place for our use case.

In X11, pointer emulated touch events are replicated with normal PRESS, RELEASE
pair events which are generated by the server. Thus for a single tap we get:
- TOUCH_BEGIN -> TOUCH_END, PRESS -> RELEASE
This will cause st-button to send two "clicked" signals, instead of just one,
breaking extensions (like dash-to-dock) that show buttons in the main stage
which will be checked two times or that will receive the same signal two times.
Back in the day, there was a proposed system of tracking apps in a
specific context.
The inspiration was that you may have used apps in multiple modes:
Firefox may have been used in both "Programmer Reference" and
"Kitten Videos" contexts. Early user response to the feedback wasn't
too positive - context switching is something that humans have trouble
doing implicitly, let alone explicitly. The old codebase still has a
few remnants of this around; let's finally put them to rest.
Note that we still write out a dummy context tag to the XML file - old
versions of the shell will flat out crash if you don't have one of those
in there, so just leave it in for compatibility sake.

StTextureCache installs file monitors that invalidate caches when
contents of the underlying file change.
At the moment, the cache uses the Gio.FileMonitorEvent.CHANGED event
type to make that determination.
However, that is suboptimal for at least two reasons:
- while a file is being written to disk, many CHANGED events will be
emitted in sequence. That will cause needless cache invalidations,
and we will risk loading the file before it's fully loaded.
- if an existing file is replaced, e.g. with g_file_replace(), we may
not get a CHANGED event but a CREATED one instead, so the cache ends
up never getting invalidated.
The good news is that in both of those cases GFileMonitor will send a
CHANGES_DONE_HINT event after changes have settled, or after the file
is replaced.
This commit fixes both cases by switching from the CHANGED event to
CHANGES_DONE_HINT to determine that a file has in fact changed.

If the initialization fails for some reason, for example by

According to Clutter documentation, "[…] actors implementing the
ClutterContainer interface should override the default implementation
of the class handler of this signal and call clutter_actor_destroy()
on their children."
StBin was doing that in GObject:dispose() instead. Move the child
destruction to a new ClutterActor:destroy() vfunc override.
StBoxLayout implements StScrollable, which, semantically, means that
the StBoxLayout size may not match the minimum size reported by the
layout manager. In this specific case, the layout manager by is a
ClutterBoxLayout by default. For example:
+--------------+
| Viewport |
+------+--------------+-----------------+
| | | |
| | | Content |
| | | |
+------+--------------+-----------------+
| |
+--------------+
So, assuming that:
- ContentSize = the minimum size of the content;
- ViewportSize = the allocated size of the viewport;
When allocating StBoxLayout, it must assume ViewportSize, but must
pass ContentSize to the layout manager. That way, the children of
StBoxLayout are correctly placed within it, even if it's bigger than
ViewportSize.
And here's the problem: right now, StBoxLayout assumes ViewportSize
AND also passes it to layout manager. Commit 77c4c6b6d specifically
exposed this bug by relying entirely on StBoxLayout to arrange the
app and window icons.
Fix that by using ViewportSize to allocate StBoxLayout itself, but
passing ContentSize to the layout manager.

Using a single resource file for all JS sources saves a couple of
build system instructions, but has some serious downsides:
- bundling the entire shell code with the tools blows
up their size unnecessarily
- the tools are rebuilt unnecessarily for any shell

Add a debug command (to be executed manually via Alt+F2) to check

This is important so that internal file descriptors do not get passed

When the amount of free memory on the system is somewhat low, gnome-shell
will sometimes fail to launch apps, reporting the error:
fork(): Cannot allocate memory
fork() is failing here because while cloning the process virtual address
space, Linux worries that the thread being forked may end up COWing the
entire address space of the parent process (gnome-shell, which is
memory-hungry), and there is not enough free memory to permit that to
happen. This check is somewhat irrelevant because we are only forking
to immediately exec(), which will discard the whole virtual address
space anyway.
This issue can be avoided by using a new optimized gspawn codepath in
the latest glib development version, which uses posix_spawn() internally.
For the optimized codepath to be used, we must not pass a child_setup
function, so the the file descriptor management is reimplemented here
using new glib API to pass fds to the child process. The old API will
continue to be used on older glib versions.
We must also change the spawn flags for this code path to be hit.
I checked that gnome-shell's open file descriptors are all CLOEXEC
so using G_SPAWN_LEAVE_DESCRIPTORS_OPEN should be safe.
This will result in more resilient app launching when memory is low,
since the optimized spawn path avoids cloning the virtual address
space of the parent process (gnome-shell) and avoids the irrelevant
memory overcommit check.

While can_open_new_window() uses some elaborate heuristics to predict
whether an application can open multiple windows, open_new_window()
will always simply relaunch the application. This is often the best
we can do, but when an application provides a "new-window" action in
its .desktop file or on the bus, it is much more likely to work as
expected than blindly activating the app and hoping for a particular
behavior.

Graphical applications like GIMP or GIMP allow picking colors from
any location on-screen. In order to keep supporting this feature
on wayland and in sandboxed apps, we will expose an appropriate
method in the Screenshot interface, so first add a corresponding
method to ShellScreenshot.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/286
A custom callback type is more convenient, but only as long as no
other callback type is required. We are about to add functionality
that does not return the filename to a screenshot saved on disk, so
prepare for that by moving to GIO's generic async callback pattern.

So that we can be started by systemd --user, instead of gnome-session.
There are three units:
- gnome-shell.service: Start gnome-shell itself.
- gnome-shell-x11.target, gnome-shell-wayland.target: Sync points for
units that need to care if x11 or wayland is in use.
gnome-settings-daemon will use these, for example.

All adjustment setter functions take good care of avoiding emission of
notify:: when it's not needed. The set_property() implementation already
calls into the setter functions, so mark the properties as EXPLICITY_NOTIFY
in order to optimize notify:: emission away through g_object_set (rather
common from JS code).
The actor allocation doesn't change per-se, but apply_transform()
will practically transform it. In order to have the paint volume
update accordingly, queue a relayout.
The default get_paint_volume() implementation will do the union
of children, and the child ClutterText paint volume may expand
beyond StEntry size when text overflows.
We actually want all content to be clipped to the StEntry, so
implement get_paint_volume() and tell it so.
And constrain it in StScrollView instead (instead of falling back to an
infinite paint volume, as the actor as paint/pick impls, but no
corresponding get_paint_volume one).
Fixes artifacts with the AppView (and possibly other places) when paint
volumes are aggressively cached.
Remove any usage of MetaScreen, as it has been removed from libmutter
in the API version 3. The corresponding functionality has been moved
into three different places: MetaDisplay, MetaX11Display (for X11
specific functionality) and MetaWorkspaceManager.

The default keyed_surface is meant to handle CoglTextures thus we can't
add cairo surfaces to it, as the DestroyNotify function won't handle them.
Then the quicker way is to just add another Hash table for handling
such types of textures, with proper destroy function.
This might cause a crash when cleaning up the cache as the hash table has
cogl_object_unref as DestroyNotify function but that assumes that
the passed object is a valid CoglObject.
Fixes: #210
The instance is owned by the actor (being its child), and thus when the
disposal happens for the parent the text is disposed too, thus it's just
safer to nullify its reference so that we won't try to access to invalid
objects later, and this might be the case since the JS objects could be kept
around until they aren't finalized.

The gnome-shell-calendar-server calls to refresh queries even when it
has no time range set, which results in:
a) waste of resources (for example after login),
b) many runtime warnings in the journalctl log, related to
incorrect time range being used.

While it is theoretically fine to run --perf=hwtest without passing --hwtest,
the test will hang in this case because it fails to start gedit. Always append
Gedit to the default value for --extra-filter when running the "hwtest" test
to make it work fine without --hwtest.
Call _st_set_text_from_style() when updating the entry's style, so
that CSS style properties such as text-decoration or letter-spacing
are applied over the internal ClutterText instance.
If an actor is pending a relayout when get_allocation_box() is called,
the method forces an allocation update. In case of StWidget, this might
then result in a style update and a consecutive invalidation of the
shadow spec.
A helper method that invalidates one of its parameters as a side effect
(and by extension its return value as well) is most unexpected, so cur-
rently _st_create_shadow_pipeline_from_actor() poses an easy trap to
callers to run into.
Remove that trap by calling get_size()/get_position() instead, which
don't have the unintended side effect - it is still a good idea to fix
callers who were running into this to not waste resources on creating
shadows that are invalidated before the next paint, but throwing un-
defined behavior at them is harsh ...

The imagedir and userdatadir variables are not fetched from
constants/environment but created with g_strdup*/g_build*. Acknowledge that
and also free the strings in finalize.
Whenever a new cursor image is loaded also save it's hot x/y
coordinates. The drawing code already respects these values, however
they were never set. This change will place the cursor image at the
correct location as seen on screen. shell-screenshot.c served as
reference.

The st_button_release() call wouldn't happen because StButton does not
set priv->button_mask on touch events. And if we make it called, we can't
try to unset the device grab at the end of the function, as device/sequence
are unset earlier on.
After we receive one of the tracked signals, in case we get stuck inside
the gjs_dumpstack () call, we use an alarm to raise the previously emitted
signal, however without using SA_NODEFER, the raise inside the alarm handler
will be ignored.
To avoid to handle new signals caused by the handler calls, once we get the
first signal, we just ignore them all as they could only lead to dirty traces.
Also, cleaning up a bit the code, and disabling the shell log handler
in dump_gjs_stack_alarm_sigaction since this might lead to a new
gjs_dumpstack () request.

In order to debug issues triggered by JS code we might need to
see the stack of it, this is not normally visible in static stack traces,
thus we need to call gjs_dumpstack () before dying the process.
Intercepting signals SIGABRT, SIGTRAP (needed for catching fatal glib
errors) SIGFPE and SIGIOT by default, while introducing a new
'backtrace-segfaults' flag for the SHELL_DEBUG environment variable to
do the same on SIGSEGV and SIGBUS (this is a precaution to avoid that we
corrupt the stack for automatic errors trackers).
In any case after dumping the stack we raise the signal again, in order
to make the system aware of it.

Similar to what it's done in _shell_app_add_window(), rely on calling
shell_app_sync_running_state() when removing windows too, to avoid
transitioning to STOPPED while it's still in the STARTING state.
This makes the logic compliant with the startup notification spec and
prevents stopping an application too early if it has a splash screen
that has been closed before the application's main window is shown.

Meson now warns when specifying the rpath in linker flags instead
of using the newly added build_rpath option - now that we already
depend on the latest release, there's no reason anyway to not use
the nicer syntax.

When creating a shadow for a ClutterTexture, we currently use the
underlying CoglTexture directly instead of rendering the actor to
an offscreen buffer. This assumes that the CoglTexture is directly
suitable as shadow source, which isn't necessarily the case - it
may have a very different size than what is shown and scaled up or
down by the hardware. In that case we end up with a scaled shadow
texture as well, which messes up the desired blur effect - the
result will be too light when scaling up, or too sharp when scaling
down. To fix this, only take the shortcut when a ClutterTexture's
underlying texture has the correct size and fall back to offscreen
rendering otherwise.

If a tray icon gets a mapped and unmapped and the mapped again
in quick succession, we can end up with multiple handlers
listening for window creation events.
This commit tries to guard against that by only listening for
window-created events when we don't know the actor associated
with the icon.

Unlike pango_font_description_from_string(),
pango_font_description_set_family() requires a already properly
formatted font family string. The proper format is a comma seperated
list of font families, but we generated a "comma space" separated list.
Passing a incorrectly formatted font family string to pango seems to
cause wierd issues, where the wrong font is sometimes selected.
For example, this fixes a font selection issue on zh_TW.UTF-8 locale for
chinese characters, where previously the "Droid Sans" font was selected
instead of "Source Han Sans TW" even though fontconfig had placed
"Source Han Sans TW" before "Droid Sans".

The theme widget passed to shell_tray_manager_manager_screen() is simply
a means to receive style information. There is nothing which ties the two
object's life cycles together, so it is entirely possible for the tray to
be finalized with the widget still around - we shouldn't try to update the
stale object on widget style changes, so make sure we properly disconnect
the signal handler.

Compiling the generated source for each consumer of the dependency
means we end up trying to register the enum types multiple times,
resulting in a fatal failure on startup. Luckily code outside libst
itself only depends on the header, which doesn't cause those issues.
st_built_sources contains the source and header generated by mkenums,
not any other generated sources. Clarify that in the name, as we are
about to use source and header separately.
We cannot rely on any build order, except the one we specify ourselves.
St depends on various generated files; other targets depend on those
files existing, so they can be included. There is no direct relationship
between targets and files, unless we declare a dependency, using the
Meson declare_dependency() constructor — which allows us to replace the
various `link_with` directives with the more appropriate `dependencies`
one, and also allows us to specify sources that must exist by the time
we build those targets.
In parallel builds we may end up with st-enum-types.c being built inside
separate targets outside of src/st which may not have the ST_COMPILATION
pre-processor symbol defined. For this reason, we need to define it
ourselves in the source file, before including other headers, to avoid
the single-include guard.
This is not strictly necessary when linking the shell with DT_RPATH as
the runtime paths will be extracted from the introspected libraries and
used from gobject introspection to find them when loading them based on
the typelib files, but when linking with DT_RUNPATH, as it's the case
for some linkers (e.g. ld.gold, or ld.bfd in some distros like Debian).
By explicitly prepending this directory as a library path for GIR, we're
making sure that the wrapped shared objects installed in Mutter's and
GNOME Shell's private directories can be found in all cases.
