In order to see all Clutter events, Mutter was previously installing a
signal handler on the ‘captured-event’ signal on the stage and
additionally using a signal emission hook to cope with grabs. This
changes it to use the new clutter_event_add_filter API so that we can
avoid the signal emission hook hack.
The event handling code for Wayland no longer needs to synthesize X
events for the motion events because the main display code now handles
motion events directly off of the Clutter events instead of off the X
events.
There is now a meta_display_handle_event alongside the
meta_display_handle_xevent function which handles events in terms of
Clutter events instead of X events. A Clutter event filter is
registered so that all Clutter events will pass through this function.
The motion event handling code from the X event version has been moved
into this new function and has been modified to use the details from
the Clutter event instead of the X event. This is a step towards
moving all of the code over and finally removing the
meta_display_handle_xevent function.
The plan is to make a new version of meta_display_handle_event that
will accept Clutter events instead of X events and then gradually move
over the events to the new function and finally remove the X version.
When X clients change the keyboard map, the also update a property
on the root window. We can notice that and rebuild our data structures
with the new values, as well as inform the wayland clients.
This is a terrible hack, and it's not how we want to implement things
in 3.12, but it's enough to have the same keyboard layout in the
shell, in X clients and in wayland clients in 3.10, until we decide
on the fate of the keyboard g-s-d plugin.

We can't rely on clutter's xkb_state, because that's updated
when events are pulled from the kernel, not when we see them.
Instead, use the new clutter API to get the full modifier state
from the event (which, as a side effect, also works when clutter
is using the X11 backend for running nested).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706963
Synthetize XInput events from ClutterEvents in MetaWaylandKeyboard,
and pass them to the keybindings infrastructure for early handling,
so that we can activate them even if the currently focused window
is not an X11 one (or if there is no focused window, or we're
modal)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706963
To properly resize clients, we need to send them configure events
with the size we computed from the constraint system.
Also, once the sizing is properly wired up, we need to make
sure that the size at the initial map is correct, and not
always 0, 0 (because the buffer is not yet converted into
a CoglTexture by MetaShapedTexture), otherwise we end up sending
out configure events at 1 x 1. To do so, we cache the surface
type in the initial state until the first commit.
Note that this does not handle interactive resizing yet, it
merely makes the API calls work for wayland clients.
While we're there, let's implement transient hints too.
(I may have to separate this out...)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707401
At logout, we want to die when gnome-session tells us. Previously,
we were relying on the X server going down (killed by GDM at the
end of the session), but we can't use that in wayland.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706421
Use the new Clutter hook to make sure the pointer never enters
the dead area caused by the different monitor sizes.
You don't realize how much X is doing for you until you lose it...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706655
Using the new Cogl API to actually modeset (because we can't
use the DRM API directly without controlling buffer swap), we
can finally have a KMS monitor backend, which means full display
configuration when running on bare metal.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706308
Even if the xserver does them, they're useless because it doesn't
get the pointer events.
This is a lame workaround for not having real barriers in wayland,
but it fixes the hot corner and message tray (because it triggers
the old xserver path)
Add a new interface, gtk_shell, than can be used by gtk to
retrieve a surface extension called gtk_surface, which will be
used to communicate with mutter all the GTK extensions to EWMH
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707128
Add support for GTK application menus
To do so, we need to be able to set surface state before creating
the MetaWindow, so we introduce MetaWaylandSurfaceInitialState as
a staging area.
The gtk-shell-surface implementation would either write to the
initial state, or directly to the window.
At the same, implement set_title and set_class too, because it's
easy enough.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707128
According to the wayland documentation, damage outside the
window size is ignored.
This happened with xwayland+wlshm (causing a GL error when calling
TexSubImage2D), probably due to not resizing the buffer
until we receive the corresponding X event.
Might also be an off-by-one in xwayland, as the window size did
not actually change.
Note: we might want to take the configure_notify path instead,
and keep the GL/clutter size consistent with wayland rather than
X, because in the end that's what matters for events and composition.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706289
If, checking the event timestamps, we see that a new configuration
was explicitly requested by an another XRandR client, don't proceed to
apply the intended configuration again, even if looking at the
EDIDs it appears that the outputs changed.
This works around some buggy Xorg drivers (qxl, vbox) that generate
a new serial number everytime the user resizes the host window.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706735
device_id_max is set to the device_id in ensure_device_monitor(), but we
will loop only to (device_id_max - 1) when propagating the sync XEvent
down, missing the device correspondng to device_id_max.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707250
The protocol specification says that opaque / input regions should be
considered pending state and should only be actually swapped out when
the surface is committed, so it can be set atomically.
We had an assertion in meta_wayland_surface_free() that after
a repick() we would not choose the freed surface, but that didn't
consider surfaces destroyed while holding the implicit pointer
grab (ie, because the user clicked on the X button). In that case,
we need to bypass the grab infrastructure and explicitly unfocus
the dead surface.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706982
After a MetaWaylandSurface is associated with a MetaWindow, it
should be freed only when the MetaWindow is unmanaged. For wayland
clients, the window is unmanaged when the resource is destroyed,
but for X11 clients we want to wait for the unmap event.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705917
Calling XIGrabDevice has no effect under wayland, because the
xserver is getting events from us. Instead, we need to use our
own interfaces for grabs.
At the same time, we can simplify the public API, as plugins
should always listen for events using clutter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705917
We need to track the full xkb_state to have the necessary information
to send to the clients, otherwise they may get confused and lock
or invert the modifiers. In the evdev backend, we just retrieve the
same state object that clutter is using, while in the other backends
we fake the state using what clutter is providing (which is a subset
of what X11 provides, which would be necessary to have full state)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705862
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,
including the calls to drmSetMaster and drmDropMaster as appropriate.
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
We must send frame_drawn and frame_timing messages to even when
we don't actually queue a redraw on screen to comply with the
WM sync spec.
So throttle such apps to down to a ~100ms interval.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703332
When we get a damage event we update the window by calling
meta_shaped_texture_update_area which queues a redraw on the actor.
We can avoid that for obscured regions by comparing the damage area to
our visible area.
This patch causes _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN messages to be not sent in some cases
where they should be sent; they will be added back in a later commit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703332
When drawing entirely opaque regions, we traditionally kept blending on
simply because it made the code more convenient and obvious to handle.
However, this can cause lots of performance issues on GPUs that aren't
too powerful, as they have to readback the buffer underneath.
Keep track of the opaque region set by windows (through _NET_WM_OPAQUE_REGION,
Wayland opaque_region hints, standard RGB32 frame masks or similar), and draw
those rectangles separately through a different path with blending turned off.
