Once mutter is started from weston-launch on its own VT, there is
no way to change VT again (for example to actually start an application),
because the keyboard is put in raw mode.
So introduce some keybindings mimicking the standard X ones (Ctrl+Alt+Fn)
that switch the VT manually when activated.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
Now that we have a setuid launcher binary, we can make use of
using a private protocol through the socket we're passed at startup.
We also use the new hook in clutter-evdev to ask mutter-launch for
the FDs of the input devices we need, and we emulate the old X
DRM lock with a nested GMainContext without sources.
In the future, mutter-launch will be replaced with the new logind
API currently in development.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
Set the TTY mode appropriately at startup, and clean it up
when the compositor exits. Also, take control of VT switching,
and make sure that the compositor calls drmDropMaster when switched
away.
In the future, we the kernel implements the mute evdev ioctl,
we'll also make sure that input devices are appropriately released.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
Being a setuid binary, our LD_LIBRARY_PATH is cleared by glibc at
startup, but we need the spawned binary to see it, otherwise
jhbuild doesn't work, so hardcode it using the configured libdir.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
Remove the ability to launch as a different user, which we don't
need because we're spawned by gdm or by the user manually on the
command line.
At the same time, require an active local session, and remove
the ability to run from anywhere by being in the right user group
(which automatically gives you root-like privileges)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
To run mutter as a display server, one needs to acquire and
release the DRM master, which is only possible for root, so
we take advantage of weston-launch, a small setuid helper binary
written for the weston project. We import our own slightly
modified copy of it, because weston-launch only launches weston,
for security reasons.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705861
The user active watch is a one-fire watch, but it is valid in the API
for the callback to explicitly remove the watch itself. In that case,
the watch will be invalid after the user removes it, and the memory
potentially freed. So make sure to not dereference the watch after
the callback is called.

Dialogs that don't have a parent should not be skip-taskbar,
otherwise they get lost and there is no way to recover them
(because they're not autoraised when activating the parent),
but toolkits and applications set the hint anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673399
Modify all visible instances of mutter with mutter-wayland
(libraries, folders, pkgconfig, etc.), so that the wayland
branch can be installed alongside the usual X11 mutter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705497
In the wayland branch of mutter, we want to build a wayland version
of the mutter libraries, and that's much easier if we just build
wayland support unconditionally.
The define is kept to avoid a huge diff, but should be removed
in a later patch.
Also, wayland support can still be disable at runtime, by
launching mutter without the --nested switch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705497
If we're attempting to reconfigure the CRTCs to the same parameter,
skip the X call, as in some drivers a modeset can take time and
cause flicker.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706672
To allow other clients (gnome-session, gnome-settings-daemon)
to monitor user activity, introduce a DBus interface for the
idle monitor inside mutter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706005
When running as a wayland compositor, we can't use the xserver's
IDLETIME, because that's updated only in response to X events.
But we have all the events ourselves, so we can just run the timer
in process.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706005
We can't use the X11 stage window, if clutter is not using the X11
backend (and even if it was, it would be bogus when the xwayland
server is not the one clutter is talking to). Instead, we introduce
the concept of "focus type", which we use to differentiate the
various meanings of None in the focus_xwindow field.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706364
Remove grab window and cursor from the API, and just grab always
on the stage window with no cursor.
This is mainly to remove the X11 usage in the public API, in preparation
for implementing this in wayland.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705917
Using out-of-band notifications from the wayland protocol or from
X is racy, in that the client could ask for the new resources before
we have them.
Instead, with a signal, we are sure that when the client asks for
it, it will get the right values.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706382
Under X, we need to use XFixes to watch the cursor changing, while
on wayland, we're in charge of setting and painting the cursor.
MetaCursorTracker provides the abstraction layer for gnome-shell,
which can thus drop ShellXFixesCursor. In the future, it may grow
the ability to watch for pointer position too, especially if
CursorEvents are added to the next version of XInput2, and thus
it would also replace the PointerWatcher we use for gnome-shell's
magnifier.

The value passed to XRRCrtcSetGamma must be allocated with
XRRAllocGamma (because it relies on the locations of green and blue),
otherwise garbage is sent on the wire.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706231
We were relying on the XRandR events from the X server to update
the configuration, but we were calling meta_monitor_config_update_current()
immediately after, so the MonitorConfig would be updated with the
old configuration (and we would save that to disk!)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705670
First disable CRTCs that should be off in the new configuration,
then resize the framebuffer, then enable the new CRTCs.
If we don't do that, and we're making the screen smaller, X complains
with a BadMatch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705670
Add "edid-file", if we have one (in the KMS case, where we can point
people to the right sysfs file), or "edid" with inline data.
These are needed by colord to build the default ICC profile for
uncalibrated displays.
