I messed up and released 40.alpha at the same time as 3.38.2, when it's
supposed to be in January. In order to re-align with the schedule, change
the upcoming version to 40.alpha2 so we don't have to skip a release and
will be back on track in time of 40.beta.
Turns out GObject implicitly notifies all properties by default as soon
as a property setter is called, no matter if the property actually
changed or not. One can opt-out of this behavior by setting the
G_PARAM_EXPLICIT_NOTIFY flag.
So since almost all our properties get notified explicitely (well,
except ClutterActors deprecated show-on-set-parent property), set this
flag for all properties of ClutterActor and ClutterStage now. This
significantly reduces the number of notify:: signals emitted on
ClutterActors, because in gnome-shell javascript we usually set GObject
properties directly, not by going through the extra setter method.
More cleanups can be done in the future, since this flag is suitable for
almost every property in Clutter and even Mutter.
This fixes a crash where we'd hit a newly introduced assertion in
on_device_actor_reactive_changed() of ClutterStage because
notify::reactive got emitted multiple times.

Due to a few reasons currently the updating of input devices after stage
relayouts isn't working right now. Since we now have a list of pointer
devices in ClutterStage, we can simply use that list and can avoid
asking the input thread. Also we no longer need to check whether the
devices are pointer devices, since our list only consists of pointer
devices.
So switch to ClutterStages private list of pointer devices, which also
includes the core pointer (as opposed to the list returned by
clutter_seat_peek_devices()). This fixes picking after relayouts.
Note that this doesn't catch every possible change that might need a
repick, actors might also need a repick after transformation changes or
in case their custom clip has been changed.

find_focusable_ancestor() may pick an ancestor window which is not
mapped or hidden, and setting focus on that window will fail.
Be a tad more selective when looking for a focusable ancestor, to reduce
the chance of meta_window_focus() not focusing the happy chosen one.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1643>
The function focus_default_window() optionally takes a MetaWindow
argument denoting a window that should not be focused.
That function calls focus_ancestor_or_top_window() which in turn
calls meta_window_focus() to pass focus to another window.
However meta_window_focus() gives no guarantee that the given window
will end up being the one focused, and can fail in various and creative
ways.
If that fails, we could possibly end up with the focus window being the
one to avoid, while the caller assumes focus was changed, going as far
as asserting that fact like meta_window_unmanage() does.
As a result, mutter may abort simply because meta_window_focus() failed
to set focus on the expected window.
To avoid that issue, check that the focus did not end up on the window
that we explicitly did not want, and if that's the case, simply fallback
to the default focus window.

If texture allocation failed for a sliced 2D texture, the alloc()
function would free the slices immediately, but not clear the pointer to
the slices array. When the code attempting to allocate the texture then
freed the texture object, the cleanup functions tried to free the slices
array again, since it wasn't NULL.
Fix this by clearing the slices array after freeing it.

As planned and prepared with the last commits, let ClutterStage take
care of tracking input devices and their respective actors. This means
we now can remove the old infrastructure for this from
ClutterInputDevice.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1633>
We're moving keeping track of input devices and their associated actors
out of ClutterInputDevice, this commit basically adds replacements for
clutter_input_device_update() and clutter_input_device_set_actor() to
clutter-main and shuffles the internals of those functions around a bit
for clarity.
clutter_stage_update_device() is made available in clutter-mutter.h
because we need to update the actor of input devices not only from
ClutterStage (when repicking after relayout), but also from
MetaWaylandPointer (inside meta_wayland_pointer_repick()).
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1633>
With the introduction of the input thread, we want to avoid modifying
ClutterInputDevices from the main thread, since they're owned and
updated by the thread.
There's one part of ClutterInputDevice that's still modified from the
main thread though, that is device-actors of pointer devices, and we're
going to move that state-tracking into ClutterStage instead.
So start that by adding the infrastructure to ClutterStage to keep track
of those things. It consists of two hashtables which associate devices
and touch sequences with actors, those hashtables get updated using
clutter_stage_update_device_entry() and
clutter_stage_remove_device_entry(), they can be queried by calling
clutter_stage_get_device_actor(), which will replace
clutter_input_device_get_actor().
clutter_stage_get_device_coords() is added and made available in
clutter-mutter.h because we need to get the coordinates when repicking
in meta_wayland_pointer_repick().

The n_steps variable corresponds to the number of *pairs* of
texture lookups that the blur shader does. For example, when
n_steps = 1, the for-loop reads 1 pixel before and 1 pixel
after the current one.
Our blur shader is heavily inspired in WebRender's blur shader,
the biggest difference being that we calculate the gaussian
samples in the fragment shader itself, and not in the vertex
shader. (This could be an improvement in performance for the
future though!)
WebRender's blur shader calculates n_steps differently than what
we currently do, though. It calculates n_step in such a way that
at least 2 steps are performed for evey non-zero sigma value.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1646>
The shader already operates on floating point sigma, and
there's just no reason for us to force it to be an unsigned
integer. It's still important that sigma must be positive
though.
Make sigma a float, and make sure it's a positive number.

Yet another way to reduce the instruction count of the fragment
shader. Passing a pair of floats once is virtually free, compared
to computing horizontal and vertical on each fragment run.

New entries indirectly added to `pending_queue_redraw` during the loop
would make our iterator invalid and cause `g_hash_table_iter_next` to
fail without having visited all elements. That was seen as assertion
failures but also likely resulted in incomplete paint clips.
Now we steal the iterator's entry before such corruption can happen,
free it manually, and reset the iterator to the beginning on every
iteration. This is actually safe and efficient because we're removing each
entry we visit. So no time is wasted in resuming from the (new) beginning
of the hash table.

Add a new pair of APIs corresponding to CoglFramebuffer's draw_rectangles()
and draw_textured_rectangles(). They're generally more performance compared
to adding multiple single-rect operations. These variants are heavily used
by GNOME Shell's CSS implementation.
The op array is built to match cogl_framebuffer_draw_textured_rectangles()
always, which means it's a series of 8 floats composed (x1 y1 x2 y2) and
(s1 t1 s2 t2). To avoid adding new struct fields to ClutterPaintOperation,
which is a performance and memory sensitive structure, simply divide the
array length by 8 (which is guaranteed to be correct).

Power saving changes in laptop panels enable/disable the attached

Currently, the MetaInputDeviceNative owns the libinput_device, with the
small catch that it is eventually finished in the main thread (as the
CLUTTER_DEVICE_REMOVED event keeps the last reference to it).
Make it sure that the libinput_device is destroyed in the input thread,
before giving away the last extra input device references.

Setting an ortho projection gives us pretty much the same result as
manually calculating the projection matrix. The ortho projection is
actually more "complete" than the custom projection we've been using,
as it also considers z-near and z-far, but in practice the generated
pixels are exactly equal.

In the purely paint node based rendering future, ClutterEffects
simply add more paint nodes to the tree when painting the actor.
This is the leap to achieve that future.
Add paint nodes to pre_paint, paint, and post_paint, and move the
ClutterEffectNode creation to _clutter_effect_paint().
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1355>
The paint node tree that ClutterOffscreenEffect generates is
simple:
Root
|------------+
| |
Layer Pipeline
|
Actor
Right now, both pre-paint and ClutterLayerNode push the offscreen
to the framebuffer stack. That's harmless, and will go away soon
anyway.
The actor node is created and added in a separate function because
it'll be reused by the next commit.

Add a new ClutterPaintNode parameter to the paint_target() vfunc.
For now, create a temporary ClutterEffectNode that is passed to
paint_target() and immediately painted; next commits will move
this to upper layers.

The blur pipeline is still cached on ClutterBlurEffect, and we
simply update the uniforms when asked to create the pipeline.
Now that ClutterOffscreenEffect will use the blur pipeline, it
doesn't need to override the paint_target() vfunc anymore.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1355>
The most annoying aspect of ClutterOffscreenEffect right now, and
the reason for all its subclasses to override pre-paint, is that
the pipeline creation isn't under subclasses' control. That means
all subclasses must ask ClutterOffscreenEffect to run pre-paint
and create the pipeline, then they all create their own pipelines
to paint.
To reduce this complexity, add a new create_pipeline() vfunc to
ClutterOffscreenEffect. Next commits will port effects to use this
new vfunc.

ClutterLayerNode currently skips pushing the offscreen framebuffer when
no operations are set. This was added at the time because pushing and
popping was a synchronization point in Cogl, slow enough to force the
layer node to have this protective measure. Nowadays, pushing and
popping on the paint context is free.
Make ClutterLayerNode always push and pop in pre and post paint.

Xwayland in its main development branch now provides a pkg-config file
which can be used to determine Xwayland installation path and various
options enabled at build time.
Change mutter build system to optionally use that mechanism if
available. If not (as with Xwayland from the current stable branch),
keep the fallback mechanisms (basically search for the Xwayland and parse
its command line options to determine if initfd is available).

Until now we would `clutter_input_focus_set_cursor_location` with
cursor-rectangle-in-physical-pixels + actor-location-in-stage-coordinates.
But those use different scaling factors so it only got the right answer
when the framebuffer scale was 1.0.
This directly determines the geometry of the invisible dummy cursor in
gnome-shell ibusCandidatePopup.js:
```
panelService.connect('set-cursor-location', (ps, x, y, w, h) => {
this._setDummyCursorGeometry(x, y, w, h);
});
```
And because it's invisible it wasn't obvious that it was wrong until you
enable `CLUTTER_PAINT=damage-region` and you can see its ghost at the wrong
offset and scale.
So now we `clutter_input_focus_set_cursor_location` using purely unscaled
stage coordinates. And `CLUTTER_PAINT=damage-region` shows that
gnome-shell's `_dummyCursor` is placed precisely over the visible cursor.
Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3399
and probably other IBus issues that arise when using framebuffer scaling.
