I want the MetaCursorTracker to mostly be about retrieving cursor
information. Start moving the code that loads cursor images to a
new file, MetaCursor. Eventually, MetaCursorTracker's APIs will
all take MetaCursorReferences, and we can have a clean backend
split here.
display.c is getting a bit crowded. Move most of the handling
out to another file, events.c.
The long-term goal is to have generic event handling here, with
backend-specific handling for the types of windows and such.
This is specifically about managing X11 windows, not necessarily
running as an X11 compositor. By that I mean that this code is
still used for XWayland windows, and event handling is still and
modesetting / monitor management is still in core/.
This is also a fairly conservative move. We don't move anything
like screen.c or bell.c in here, even though those are really
only for X11 clients.
This is fairly simple and basic for now, with just skip_taskbar /
skip_pager, but eventually a lot of "WM policy" like this, including
move-resize, will be in subclasses for each individual surface.
The rendering logic before was somewhat complex. We had three independent
cases to take into account when doing rendering:
* X11 compositor. In this case, we're a traditional X11 compositor,
not a Wayland compositor. We use XCompositeNameWindowPixmap to get
the backing pixmap for the window, and deal with the COMPOSITE
extension messiness.
In this case, meta_is_wayland_compositor() is FALSE.
* Wayland clients. In this case, we're a Wayland compositor managing
Wayland surfaces. The rendering for this is fairly straightforward,
as Cogl handles most of the complexity with EGL and SHM buffers...
Wayland clients give us the input and opaque regions through
wl_surface.
In this case, meta_is_wayland_compositor() is TRUE and
priv->window->client_type == META_WINDOW_CLIENT_TYPE_WAYLAND.
* XWayland clients. In this case, we're a Wayland compositor, like
above, and XWayland hands us Wayland surfaces. XWayland handles
the COMPOSITE extension messiness for us, and hands us a buffer
like any other Wayland client. We have to fetch the input and
opaque regions from the X11 window ourselves.
In this case, meta_is_wayland_compositor() is TRUE and
priv->window->client_type == META_WINDOW_CLIENT_TYPE_X11.
We now split the rendering logic into two subclasses, which are:
* MetaSurfaceActorX11, which handles the X11 compositor case, in that
it uses XCompositeNameWindowPixmap to get the backing pixmap, and
deal with all the COMPOSITE extension messiness.
* MetaSurfaceActorWayland, which handles the Wayland compositor case
for both native Wayland clients and XWayland clients. XWayland handles
COMPOSITE for us, and handles pushing a surface over through the
xf86-video-wayland DDX.
Frame sync is still in MetaWindowActor, as it needs to work for both the
X11 compositor and XWayland client cases. When Wayland's video display
protocol lands, this will need to be significantly overhauled, as it would
have to work for any wl_surface, including subsurfaces, so we would need
surface-level discretion.

The goal here is to make MetaWindow represent a toplevel, managed window,
regardless of if it's X11 or Wayland, and build an abstraction layer up.
Right now, most of the X11 code is in core/ and the wayland code in wayland/,
but in the future, I want to move a lot of the X11 code to a new toplevel, x11/.
Instead of hardcoded knowledge of certain classes in MetaWindowGroup,
create a generic interface that all actors can implement to get parts of
their regions culled out during redraw, without needing any special
knowledge of how to handle a specific actor.
The names now are a bit suspect. MetaBackgroundGroup is a simple
MetaCullable that knows how to cull children, and MetaWindowGroup is the
"toplevel" cullable that computes the initial two regions. A future
cleanup here could be to merge MetaWindowGroup / MetaBackgroundGroup so
that we only have a generic MetaSimpleCullable, and move the "toplevel"
cullability to be a MetaCullableToplevel.

Instead of having MetaWindowActor only have one single MetaShapedTexture
as actor drawing its content, introduce a new abstract MetaSurfaceActor
that takes care of drawing.
This is one step in the direction to decouple MetaWaylandSurface with a
MetaWindow and MetaWindowActor (except for shell/xdg surfaces) in order
to finally support subsurfaces like features, or any feature where
window is not drawn using a single texture.
The first step, implemented in this patch, is to not have
MetaWindowActor work directly with a shaped texture. There are still
some cases where it simply gets the texture and goes on as before, but
this should be changed by either removing the need of going via
MetaWindowActor or by adding some generic interface to MetaSurfaceActor
that doesn't limit its functionality to one shaped texture.
There should be no visible difference nor after this patch, but
meta_window_actor_get_texture() and meta_surface_actor_get_texture()
should be deprecated when equivalent functionality has been introduced.

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.

Switching meta/util.h to gi18n.h was wrong, mutter is a library
and needs gi18n-lib.h, but that cannot be included from a public
header (since it depends on config.h or command line options),
so split util.h into a public and a private part.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
