Add support for an artificial UNINITIALIZED marking for ClutterActorBox,
done by setting the boxes origin to Infinity and its size to -Infinity.
That is a value that's considered an invalid allocation by Clutter and
which can never be set by sane code.
This will allow setting the allocation of ClutterActors to an
UNINITIALIZED box when creating actors or when removing them from the
scenegraph and makes it possible to explicitely detect uninitialized
allocations, which is useful in a few cases.

We currently go through the whole tree of mapped actors on every paint
cycle to update the stage views actors are on. Even if no actors need
updating of their stage views, traversing the actor tree is still quite
expensive and shows up when using a profiler.
So tone down the amounts of full-tree traversals we have to do on every
paint cycle and only traverse a subtree if it includes an actor which
actually needs updating of its stage views.
We do that by setting the `needs_update_stage_views` flag to TRUE
recursively for all parents up to the stage when the stage-views list of
an actor gets invalidated. This way we end up updating a few more actors
than necessary, but can avoid searching the whole actor tree for actors
which have `needs_update_stage_views` set to TRUE.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1196
Add a new signal that's emitted when the stage views an actor being
painted on have changed, "stage-views-changed". For example this signal
can be helpful when tracking whether an actor is painted on multiple
stage views or only one.
Since we must clear the stage-views list when an actor leaves the stage
(actors that aren't attached to a stage don't get notified about the
stage views being changed/replaced), we also emit the new signal when an
actor gets detached from the stage (otherwise there would be an edge
case where no signal is emitted but it really should: An actor is
visible on a stage view, then detached from the stage, and then attached
again and immeditely moved outside the view).
Also skip the comparison of the old stage-views list and the new one if
nobody is listening to the signal to save some resources.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1196
There are certain rendering techniques and optimizations, for example
the unredirection of non-fullscreen windows, where information about the
output/stage-view an actor is on is needed to determine whether the
optimization can be enabled.
So add a new method to ClutterActor that allows listing the stage-views
the actor is being painted on: clutter_actor_peek_stage_views()
With the way Clutter works, the only point where we can reliably get
this information is during or right before the paint phase, when the
layout phase of the stage has been completed and no more changes to the
actors transformation matrices happen. So to get the stage views the
actor is on, introduce a new step that's done on every master clock tick
between layout and paint cycle: Traversing through the actor tree and
updating the stage-views the mapped actors are going to be painted on.
We're doing this in a separate step instead of inside
clutter_actor_paint() itself for a few reasons: It keeps the code
separate from the painting code, making profiling easier and issues
easier to track down (hopefully), it allows for a new
"stage-views-changed" signal that doesn't interfere with painting, and
finally, it will make it very easy to update the resource scales in the
same step in the future.
Currently, this list is only invalidated on allocation changes of
actors, but not on changes to the transformation matrices. That's
because there's no proper API to invalidate the transformation matrices
ClutterActor implementations can apply through the apply_transform()
vfunc.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1196
When the stage views the stage is shown on are changed, ClutterStage
currently provides a clutter_stage_update_resource_scales() method
that allows invalidating the resource scales of all actors. With the new
stage-views API that's going to be added to ClutterActor, we also need a
method to invalidate the stage-views lists of actors in case the stage
views are rebuilt and fortunately we can re-use the infrastructure for
invalidating resource scales for that.
So since resource scales depend on the stage views an actor is on,
rename clutter_stage_update_resource_scales() and related methods to
clutter_stage_clear_stage_views(), which also covers resource scales.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1196
While the layout manager of a ClutterActor does get properly unset when
destroying an actor, we currently forget to disconnect the
"layout-changed" signal from it.
So do that, and while at it, also switch to using the signal id for
disconnecting from the signal instead of
g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func(), which caused problems before
because it might traverse the signal handler list.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1281
We currently are confusing g_param_spec_enum and g_param_spec_flags for
the offscreen-redirect property of ClutterActor. Since it's actually a
flag, make it a flag everywhere.
Fun fact: This was already partly done with
d7814cf63e, but that commit missed the
setter.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1292
Just like the ClutterBindConstraint, the ClutterAlignConstraint should
listen to "queue-relayout" of its source actor, not
"notify::allocation". That's because the latter will queue a relayout
during an allocation cycle and might cause relayout loops.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1296
Hiding a compositor stage is not something that's really supported, but
will still be used by tests, to get closer to a "fresh" stage for each
test case, when the tests eventually start using the mutter provided
stage.
It'll use that stage simply because creating standalone stages isn't
supported.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1289
The script parser only included G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameters when
constructing objects. This causes issues if an object requires a
parameter to be set during construction, but may also change after. Fix
this by including G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT parameters when constructing script
objects as well.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1289
Start follow the convention used in ClutterFrameClock by including the
meaning as well as time granularity in the variable name. The
constructor takes the intended duration of the constructed timeline in
milli seconds, so call the constructor argument `duration_ms`. This is
done in preparation for adding more constuctors.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1289
For actors which don't have needs_allocation set to TRUE and where the
new allocation wouldn't be different from the old one, the allocate()
vfunc doesn't have to be called. We still did this in case a parent
actor was moved though (so the absolute origin changed), because we
needed to propagate the ABSOLUTE_ORIGIN_CHANGED allocation flag down to
all actors.
Since that flag is now removed and got replaced with a private property,
we can simply notify the children about the absolute allocation change
using the existing infrastructure and safely stop allocating children at
this point.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1247
With commit 0eab73dc2e we introduced an optimization of not doing
allocations for actors which are hidden. This broke the propagation of
absolute origin changes to hidden actors, so if an actor is moved while
its child is hidden, the child will not get
priv->needs_compute_resource_scale set to TRUE, which means the resource
scale won't be updated when the child gets mapped and shown again.
Since we now have priv->absolute_origin_changed, we can simply check
whether that is TRUE for our parent before bailing out of
clutter_actor_allocate() and if it is, notify the whole hidden sub-tree
about the absolute origin change.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1247
Since clutter_stage_set_viewport() is only used inside clutter-stage.c
anyway, we can make it a static method. Also we can remove the x and y
arguments from it since they're always set to 0 anyway.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1247
When getting the last allocation using
clutter_actor_get_allocation_box(), Clutter will do an immediate
relayout of the stage in case an actor has an invalid allocation. Since
the allocation is always invalid when the allocate() vfunc is called,
clutter_stage_allocate() always forces another allocation cycle.
To fix that, stop comparing the old allocation to the new one to find
out whether the viewport changed, but instead use the existing check in
_clutter_stage_set_viewport() and implement the behavior of rounding the
viewport to the nearest int using roundf() (which should behave just as
CLUTTER_NEARBYINT()) since we're passing around floats anyway.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1247
When manipulating the allocation of a ClutterActor from an allocate()
vfunc override, clutter_actor_set_allocation() is used to let Clutter
know about the changes.
If the actors allocation or its absolute origin did not change before
that, this can also affect the actors absolute_origin_changed property
used by the children to detect changes to their absolute position.
So fix this bug (which luckily didn't seem to affect us so far) and set
priv->absolute_origin_changed to TRUE in case the origin changes inside
clutter_actor_set_allocation_internal(). Since this function is always
called when our allocation changes, we no longer need to update
absolute_origin_changed in clutter_actor_allocate() now.
Since a change to the absolute origin always affects the resource scale,
too, we also need to move that check from clutter_actor_allocate() here
to make sure we update the resource scale.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1247
Since the introduction of the shallow relayout functionality it's
possible to start an allocation cycle at any point in the tree, not only
at the stage. Now when starting an allocation at an actor that's not the
stage, we'd still look at the absolute_origin_changed property of this
actors parent, which might still be set to TRUE from the parents last
allocation.
So avoid using the parents absolute_origin_changed property from the
last allocation in case a shallow relayout is being done and always
reset the absolute_origin_changed property to FALSE after the allocation
cycle.
This broke with the removal of the ABSOLUTE_ORIGIN_CHANGED
ClutterAllocationFlag that was done in commit dc8e5c7f.

This cannot be made to work reliably. Some factoids:
- Internal devices may be connected via USB.
- The ACPI spec provides the _PLD (Physical location of device) hook to
determine how is an USB device connected, with an anecdotal success
rate. Internal devices may be seen as external and vice-versa, there is
also an "unknown" value that is widely used.
- There may be non-USB keyboards, the old "AT Translated Set 2 Keyboard"
interface does not change on hotplugging.
- Libinput has an internal series of quirks to classify keyboards as
internal of external, also with an "unknown" value.
These heuristics are kinda hopeless to get right by our own hand. Drop
this external keyboard detection in the hope that there will be something
more deterministic to rely on in the future (e.g. the libinput quirks
made available to us directly or indirectly).

In clutter_text_queue_redraw_or_relayout() we check whether the size
of the layout has changed and queue a relayout if it did, otherwise we
only queue a redraw and save some resources.
The current check for this also queues a redraw if the actor has no
valid allocation. That seems right on the first glance since the actor
will be allocated anyway, but we actually want to call
clutter_actor_queue_relayout() again here because that also invalidates
the size cache of the actor which might have been updated and marked
valid in the meantime.
So make sure the size cache is always properly invalidated after the
size of the layout changed and also call clutter_actor_queue_relayout()
in case the actor has no allocation.
This fixes a bug where getting the preferred width of a non-allocated
ClutterText, then changing the string of the ClutterText, and then
getting the preferred width again would return the old cached width (the
width before we changed the string).
The only place where this bug is currently happening is in the overview,
where we call get_preferred_width() on the unallocated ClutterText of
the window clone title: When the window title changes while the
ClutterText is unallocated the size of the title is going to be wrong
and the text might end up ellipsized or too large.

It's effectively used by mutter by abusing a ClutterTimeline to scedule
updates. Timelines are not really suited in places that is done, as it
is really just about getting a single new update scheduled whenever
suitable, so expose the API so we can use it directly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1218
We could call clutter_stage_schedule_update() and it wouldn't actually
schedule anything, as the master frame clock only tries to reschedule if
1) there is an active timeline, 2) there are pending relayouts, 3) there
are pending redraws, or 4) there are pending events. Thus, a call to
clutter_stage_schedule_update() didn't have any effect if it was called
at the wrong time.
Fix this by adding a boolean state "needs_update" to the stage, set on
clutter_stage_schedule_update() and cleared on
_clutter_stage_do_update(), that will make the master clock reschedule
an update if it is TRUE.

We need to use the framebuffer of the view instead of the onscreen
framebuffer when painting the damage region, otherwise the redraw clips
on rotated monitors won't be shown correctly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
Compare, tile by tile, whether actual damage actually changed any
pixels. While this requires mmap():ing DMA buffers and comparing their
content, we should only ever use shadow buffers when we're using the
software renderer, meaning mmap() is cheap as it doesn't involve any
downloading.
This works by making the shadow framebuffer double buffered, while
keeping track of damage history. When we're about to swap the onscreen
buffer, we compare what part of the posted damage actually changed,
records that into a damage history, then given the onscreen buffer age,
collect all actual damage for that age. The intersection of these tiles,
and the actual damage, is then used when blitting the shadow buffer to
the onscreen framebuffer.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1157https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
Move the damage history tracking to a new ClutterDamageHistory helper
type. The aim is to be able to track damage history elsewhere without
reimplementing the data structure and tracking logic.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
This fixes the last "copy everything" paths when clutter doesn't
directly paint onto the onscreen framebuffer. It adds a new hook into
the stage view called before the swap buffer, as at this point, we have
the swap buffer damag regions ready, which corresponds to the regions we
must blit according to the damage reported to clutter.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
The rest didn't change, so only actually paint the part of the offscreen
that was composited as part of the stage painting. In practice, this
means that, unless a shadow buffer is used, we now only paint the
damaged part of the stage, and copy the damage part of the offscreen to
the onscreen.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
We failed to use the buffer age when monitors were rotated, as when they
are, we first composite to an offscreen framebuffer, then later again to
the onscreen. The buffer age checking happened on the offscreen, and an
offscreen being single buffered, they can't possible support buffer
ages.
Instead, move the buffer age check to check the actual onscreen
framebuffer. The offscreen to onscreen painting is still always full
frame, but that will be fixed in a later commit.

The manual "cleaning" of the viewport and projection state is removed,
and we only ever try to invalidate the state so that it'll be updated
next time. Change the API used to reflect this.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1237
The stage would fetch the front framebuffer and set the viewport and
projection matrix, but if we are going to more than one front buffer,
that won't work, so let the stage just pass the viewport and projection
matrix to the view and have the view deal with the framebuffer(s).

Will be used for logging to identify what view a log entry concerns. For
the native and nested backend this is the name of the output the CRTC is
assigned to drive; for X11 it's just "X11 screen", and for the legacy

nested".

All existing users of clutter_actor_has_mapped_clones() actually want to
know whether the actor is being cloned by a visible clone, it doesn't
matter to them if that clone is attached to an actor somewhere else in
the tree or to the actor itself.
So make clutter_actor_has_mapped_clones() a bit more convenient to use
and also check the clones of the parent-actors in that function.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1235
The comment in _clutter_actor_get_allocation_clip() explicitely notices
that it doesn't need the behavior of doing an immediate relayout as
clutter_actor_get_allocation_box() does. The comment is also still valid
since the code calling _clutter_actor_get_allocation_clip() checks for
priv->needs_allocation just before.
So let's just use the allocation directly here instead of going through
that function.

ClutterBoxLayout's layout policy of using the generic ClutterActor
align/expand properties for children that are expanded and a custom
meta otherwise is confusing, in particular as the x-fill/y-fill
defaults don't match the default CLUTTER_ACTOR_ALIGN_FILL align.
StBoxLayout's own custom child meta (which was deprecated last
cycle) is probably the only consumer. And luckily, the St meta
uses different x-fill/y-fill default that match the ClutterActor
defaults, so removing it will not affect code that doesn't use
the deprecated properties themselves.
