Add meta-kms and meta-monitor-manager-kms listener for the udev
device-removed signal and on this signal update the device state /
re-enumerate the monitors, so that the monitors properly get updated
to disconnected state on GPU removal.
We really should also have meta-backend-native remove the GPU itself
from our list of GPU objects. But that is more involved, see:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/710
This commit at least gets us to a point where we properly update the
list of monitors when a GPU gets unplugged; and where we no longer
crash the first time the user changes the monitor configuration after
a GPU was unplugged.
Specifically before this commit we would hit the first g_error () in
meta_renderer_native_create_view () as soon as some monitor
(re)configuration is done after a GPU was unplugged.

This commit introduces, and makes use of, a transactional API used for
setting up KMS state, later to be applied, potentially atomically. From
an API point of view, so is always the case, but in the current
implementation, it still uses legacy drmMode* API to apply the state
non-atomically.
The API consists of various buliding blocks:
* MetaKmsUpdate - a set of configuration changes, the higher level
handle for handing over configuration to the impl backend. It's used to
set mode, assign framebuffers to planes, queue page flips and set
connector properties.
* MetaKmsPlaneAssignment - the assignment of a framebuffer to a plane.
Currently used to map a framebuffer to the primary plane of a CRTC. In
the legacy KMS implementation, the plane assignment is used to derive
the framebuffer used for mode setting and page flipping.
This also means various high level changes:
State, excluding configuring the cursor plane and creating/destroying
DRM framebuffer handles, are applied in the end of a clutter frame, in
one go. From an API point of view, this is done atomically, but as
mentioned, only the non-atomic implementation exists so far.
From MetaRendererNative's point of view, a page flip now initially
always succeeds; the handling of EBUSY errors are done asynchronously in
the MetaKmsImpl backend (still by retrying at refresh rate, but
postponing flip callbacks instead of manipulating the frame clock).
Handling of falling back to mode setting instead of page flipping is
notified after the fact by a more precise page flip feedback API.
EGLStream based page flipping relies on the impl backend not being
atomic, as the page flipping is done in the EGLStream backend (e.g.
nvidia driver). It uses a 'custom' page flip queueing method, keeping
the EGLStream logic inside meta-renderer-native.c.
Page flip handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-device.c from
meta-gpu-kms.c. It goes via an extra idle callback before reaching
meta-renderer-native.c to make sure callbacks are invoked outside of the
impl context.
While dummy power save page flipping is kept in meta-renderer-native.c, the
EBUSY handling is moved to meta-kms-impl-simple.c. Instead of freezing the
frame clock, actual page flip callbacks are postponed until all EBUSY retries
have either succeeded or failed due to some other error than EBUSY. This
effectively inhibits new frames to be drawn, meaning we won't stall waiting on
the file descriptor for pending page flips.

Move reading state into a struct for MetaCrtcKms to use instead of
querying KMS itself. The state is fetched in the impl context, but
consists of only simple data types, so is made accessible publicly. As
of this, MetaCrtcKms construction does not involve any manual KMS
interaction outside of the MetaKms abstraction.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/548https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/525
DPMS is configured from a bit all over the place: via D-Bus, via X11 and
when reading the current KMS state. Each of these places did it slightly
differently, directly poking at the field in MetaMonitorManager.
To make things a bit more managable, move the field into a new
MetaMonitorManagerPrivate, and add helpers to get and set the current
value. Prior to this, there were for example situations where the DPMS
setting was changed, but without signal listeners being notified about
it.

Make the choosing and identity of the primary GPU an internal detail to
the native renderer. MonitorManagerKms did not need it for anything.
The primary GPU logic remains unchanged.
This allows follow-up patches to change how the renderer chooses the
primary GPU. It will be easier for the renderer to use private
information for choosing.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/271
This is a step towards moving the primary GPU logic into the native
renderer exclusively. In the future the renderer will have one more
criterion on choosing the primary GPU than MetaMonitorManagerKms should
know about: does a GPU offer hardware rendering.
The choosing of primary GPU is separated from the discovery of GPUs.
When GPUs are discovered and added to the list, the MetaGpuKmsFlag is
now populated correctly and used in choosing.
Choosing the primary GPU is done after all GPUs have been found and is
slightly different from before:
- Skipping devices that do not belong to our seat now works instead of
becoming the primary GPU.
- Fall back to any non-platform, non-boot_vga device if neither kind is
found.
The old preference of platform over boot_vga device is kept.
The hotplug path will continue creating a gpu_kms without flags, because
at that point the primary GPU has already been chosen and the flags are
irrelevant.

Add a flags field to MetaGpuKms. In following commits, the flags defined
here will be set and used for choosing the primary GPU.

We haven't supported disabling stage views in the native backend since

backends/native: Stop supporting stage views being disabled
There were still some left over checks; lets remove them.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/343
The order and way include macros were structured was chaotic, with no
real common thread between files. Try to tidy up the mess with some
common scheme, to make things look less messy.
We need a way for mutter to exit if no available GPUs are going to work.
For example if gdm starts gnome-shell and we're using a DRM driver that
doesn't work with KMS then we should exit so that GDM can try with Xorg,
rather than operating in headless mode.

This is a small mistake spotted while working on a solution
for #77. When a GPU fails to initialize, we're adding them
anyway, which might have pretty bad consequences when trying
to use these NULL GPUs.
Issue: #77
First find the primary GPU and open it. Then go through all other
discovered GPUs with connectors and add those too. MetaRendererNative
still fails to initialize when multiple added GPUs and
MetaCursorRendererNative still always falls back on OpenGL based cursor
rendering when there are multiple GPUs.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
In order to eventually support multilpe GPUs with their own connectors,
split out related meta data management (i.e. outputs, CRTCs and CRTC
modes) into a new MetaGpu GObject.
The Xrandr backend always assumes there is always only a single "GPU" as
the GPU is abstracted by the X server; only the native backend (aside
from the test backend) will eventually see more than one GPU.
The Xrandr backend still moves some management to MetaGpuXrandr, in
order to behave more similarly to the KMS counterparts.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
Move finding, opening and managment of the KMS file descriptor to
MetaMonitorManagerKms. This means that the monitor manager creation can
now fail, both if more than one GPU with connectors is discovered, or
if finding or opening the primary GPU fails.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
The monitor manager instance was created and setup in one step; at
construction. This is problematic if, in the future, the monitor manager
creation can fail, as the monitor manager is created quite late.
To make it possible to in the future fail creating a monitor manager,
create the instance very early when initiating the backend, then on
post init backend setup, "setup" the monitor manager state, i.e. read
the current state and setup the stage.

Move code dealing with MetaCrtcKms and related functionality to its
own file. Eventually, MetaCrtcKms should become a GObject based on
MetaCrtc, and this commit is in preparation for that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
Instead of passing it around or fetching the singleton, keep a pointer
to the monitor manager that owns the CRTC. This will eventually be
replaced with a per GPU/graphics card object.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
Move code dealing with MetaOutputKms and related functionality to its
own file. Eventually, MetaOutputKms should become a GObject based on
MetaOutput, and this commit is in preparation for that.

Convert MetaCrtcMode from a plain struct to a GObject. This changes the
storage format, and also the API, as the API was dependent on the
storage format.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
Turn MetaCrtc into a GObject and move it to a separate file. This
changes the storage format, resulting in changing the API for accessing
MetaCrtcs from using an array, to using a GList.

When headless, we don't have any logical monitors to derive a screen
size from, but we can't set it to empty as that will cause issues with
the clutter stage, UI widget layout and other things. To avoid such
issues, just fall back to a 640 x 480 screen size when headless.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730551
The zero-initialized winsys id was incorrectly used as the key to find
the old output to base active/primary state from, which would never
succeed unless the winsys id happened to be 0. Fix this by using the
winsys id that will be used, i.e. the connector id.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This changes the API to pass supported scales per mode instead of
providing a global list. This allows for more flexible scaling
scenarious, where a scale compatible with one mode can still be made
available even though another mode is incompatible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When the logical layout mode is used, allow configuring the scaling to
be non-integer. Supported scales are so far hard coded to include at
most 1, 1.5 and 2, and scales that doesn't result in non-fractional
logical monitor sizes are discarded.
Wayland outputs are set to have scale ceil(actual_scale) meaning well
behaving Wayland clients will provide buffers with buffer scale 2, thus
being scaled down to the fractional scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
This commit makes it possible to configure logical monitor scale also
when running on top of an X11 server using Xrandr. An extra property
'requires-globla-scale' is added to the D-Bus API is added to instruct
a configuration application to only allow setting a global logical
monitor scale.
This is needed to let gsd-xsettings use the configured state to set a
XSettings state that respects the explicit monitor configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The scale calculation doesn't really have anything to do with KMS, and
eventually we'll want to have mutter calculate the monitor scale for
non-KMS backends too, so move the scale calculation to MetaMonitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Introduce MetaSettings and add the settings managed by MetaBackend into
the new object. These settings include: experimental-features and UI
scaling factor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Instead of using a environment variable, add a new 'experimental
feature' gsetting keyword "monitor-config-manager" that enables the use
of the new MetaMonitorConfigManager. This commit also makes it possible
to switch between the two systems without restarting mutter.
The D-Bus API is disabled when the experimental feature is not enabled,
and clients trying to access it will get a access-denied error in
response. A new property 'IsExperimentalApiEnabled' is added to let the
D-Bus client know whether it is possible to use the experimental API or
not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Make the concept of maximum screen size optional, as it is not
necessarily a thing on all systems (e.g. when using the native backend
and stage views).
The meta_monitor_monitor_get_limits() function is replaced by a
meta_monitor_manager_get_max_screen_size() which fails when no screen
limit is available. Callers and other users of the previous max screen
size fields are updated to deal with the fact that the limit is
optional.
The new D-Bus API is changed to move it to the properties bag, where
its absence means there is no applicable limit.
