They are X11 specific functions, used for X11 code. They have been
improved per jadahl's suggestion to use gdk_x11_lookup_xdisplay and
gdk_x11_display_error_trap_* functions, instead of current code.

Since the frame is the window that's redirected, there's no reason for
it to match the root window. There *is*, however, a big incentive to
match the window's visual, since not doing so might trigger automatic
redirection.
On a specific platform, we construct a depth-32 root window, and stick a
depth-24 child window inside it. The frame ends up being created
depth-32, not depth-24, so we get automatic redirection.
With all input events being handled through clutter, this only confuses
things, and most nominally, coerces touch events through places we didn't
intend to, like the window frame.
This makes again all touch events only handled in the passive grab on X11,
while the rest stays pointer (emulated) only.

We're locked to frame sync anyway, so it doesn't make sense to try to
redraw early. In casual testing, this seems to actually make things
faster, as well.
Break down the beautiful core/ui abstraction barrier by inserting
a pointer to MetaWindow into a MetaUIFrame. I'm a scoundrel, I know.
We'll use this very soon to destroy meta_core_get.
Putting X windows and pointers to MetaWindows into a union had a number of
problems:
- It caused awkward initialization and conditionalization
- There was no way to refer to Wayland windows (represented by
MetaWindow *) in the past, which is necessary for the MetaStackTracker
algorithms
- We never even cleaned up old MetaStackWindow so there could be
records in MetaStackWindow pointing to freed MetaWindow.
Replace MetaStackWindow with a 64-bit "stack ID" which is:
- The XID for X Windows
- a "window stamp" for Wayland windows - window stamps are assigned
for all MetaWindow and are unique across the life of the process.

This way the xserver never paints the frame background, even if
the client window is destroyed. This allows us to have clean
destroy window animation.
There is no problem with interactive resizing because applications
are using the XSync protocol, so we're not painting unless the
client has redrawn.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734054
The only case we have is the case where the two X11 connections are the
same. When on Wayland, the XSync is costly and expensive, and we should
minimize it.
Touch events are largely ignored on GdkEvent emulation, so only
make frames receive pointer events, only the pointer emulating
touch will be reported, and any other further touches will be
ignored, which is about the behavior we want. This makes window
dragging possible again on touch.
For Wayland, we want to have everything possible in terms of the frame
rect, or "window geometry" as the Wayland protocol calls it, in order
to properly eliminate some flashing when changing states to fullscreen
or similar.
For this, we need to heavily refactor how the code is structured, and
make it so that meta_window_move_resize_internal is specified in terms
of the frame rect coordinate space, and transforming all entry points
to meta_window_move_resize_internal.
This is a big commit that's hard to tear apart. I tried to split it
as best I can, but there's still just a large amount of changes that
need to happen at once.
Expect some regressions from this. Sorry for any temporary regression
that this might cause.
We want to synchronize the button layouts of our server side
decorations and GTK+'s client side ones. However each currently
may contain buttons not supported by the other, which makes this
unnecessarily tricky.
So add support for a new "appmenu" button in the layout, to display
the fallback app menu in the decorations.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730752
Otherwise, the X server might read the backend's connection before
GTK+'s, meaning that it sees the XIGrabKeycode requests before the
CreateWindow.
This fixes keybindings on windows not working immediately.

Traditionally, WMs unmap windows when minimizing them, and map them
when restoring them or wanting to show them for other reasons, like
upon creation.
However, as metacity morphed into mutter, we optionally chose to keep
windows mapped for the lifetime of the window under the user option
"live-window-previews", which makes the code keep windows mapped so it
can show window preview for minimized windows in other places, like
Alt-Tab and Expose.
I removed this preference two years ago mechanically, by removing all
the if statements, but never went through and cleaned up the code so
that windows are simply mapped for the lifetime of the window -- the
"architecture" of the old code that maps and unmaps on show/hide was
still there.
Remove this now.
The one case we still need to be careful of is shaded windows, in which
we do still unmap the client window. In the future, we might want to
show previews of shaded windows in the overview and Alt-Tab. In that
we'd also keep shaded windows mapped, and could remove all unmap logic,
but we'd need a more complex method of showing the shaded titlebar, such
as using a different actor.
At the same time, simplify the compositor interface by removing
meta_compositor_window_[un]mapped API, and instead adding/removing the
window on-demand.

meta_window_ensure_frame() creates its own grab and has a comment
claiming that it must be called under a grab too.
But the reasoning given in the comment does not seem relevant here.
We only frame non-override-redirect windows, so we are creating
the frame in response to MapRequest. There is no way that the child
could receive a MapNotify at this point, since that only happens
much later, once we go through the CALC_SHOWING queue and call
XMapWindow() from meta_window_show().
Remove the unnecessary grab.

Cache the computed border size so we can fetch the border size at
any time without worrying that we'll be spending too much time in
the theme code (in some cases we might allocate a PangoFontDescription
or do other significant work.)
The main effort here is clearing the cache when various bits of window
state change that could potentially affect the computed borders.

This breaks down the assumptions in stack-tracker.c and stack.c that
Mutter is only stacking X windows.
The stack tracker now tracks windows using a MetaStackWindow structure
which is a union with a type member so that X windows can be
distinguished from Wayland windows.
Some notable changes are:
Queued stack tracker operations that affect Wayland windows will not be
associated with an X serial number.
If an operation only affects a Wayland window and there are no queued
stack tracker operations ("unvalidated predictions") then the operation
is applied immediately since there is no server involved with changing
the stacking for Wayland windows.
The stack tracker can no longer respond to X events by turning them into
stack operations and discarding the predicted operations made prior to
that event because operations based on X events don't know anything
about the stacking of Wayland windows.
Instead of discarding old predictions the new approach is to trust the
predictions but whenever we receive an event from the server that
affects stacking we cross-reference with the predicted stack and check
for consistency. So e.g. if we have an event that says ADD window A then
we apply the predictions (up to the serial for that event) and verify
the predicted state includes a window A. Similarly if an event says
RAISE_ABOVE(B, C) we can apply the predictions (up to the serial for
that event) and verify that window B is above C.
If we ever receive spurious stacking events (with a serial older than we
would expect) or find an inconsistency (some things aren't possible to
predict from the compositor) then we hit a re-synchronization code-path
that will query the X server for the full stacking order and then use
that stack to walk through our combined stack and force the X windows to
match the just queried stack but avoiding disrupting the relative
stacking of Wayland windows. This will be relatively expensive but
shouldn't be hit for compositor initiated restacking operations where
our predictions should be accurate.
The code in core/stack.c that deals with synchronizing the window stack
with the X server had to be updated quite heavily. In general the patch
avoids changing the fundamental approach being used but most of the code
did need some amount of re-factoring to consider what re-stacking
operations actually involve X or not and when we need to restack X
windows we sometimes need to search for a suitable X sibling to restack
relative too since the closest siblings may be Wayland windows.
This essentially just moves install_corners() from the compositor, through
the core, into the UI layer where it arguably should have been anyway,
leaving behind stub functions which call through the various layers. This
removes the compositor's special knowledge of how rounded corners work,
replacing it with "ask the UI for an alpha mask".
The computation of border widths and heights changes a bit, because the
width and height used in install_corners() are the
meta_window_get_outer_rect() (which includes the visible borders but not
the invisible ones), whereas the more readily-available rectangle is the
MetaFrame.rect (which includes both). Computing the same width and height
as meta_window_get_outer_rect() involves compensating for the invisible
borders, but the UI layer is the authority on those anyway, so it seems
clearer to have it do the calculations from scratch.

A lot of code did something similar to:
MetaFrameBorders borders;
if (window->frame)
meta_frame_calc_borders (window->frame, &borders);
else
meta_frame_borders_clear (&borders);
Sometimes, the else part was omitted and we were unknowingly using
uninitalized values for OR windows. Clean this up by just testing
for a NULL frame in meta_frame_calc_borders and clearing for the
caller if so.

When we reparent a window to the root when we're exiting, we need to offset
the position by the invisible borders, otherwise windows will creep up and
to the left.

Just a quick little commit to help clean things up for when we add invisible
borders. Additionally, do a little housekeeping in preview-widget as well.

There were actually *two* MetaFrameGeometry structs: one in theme-private.h,
one in frame.h. The latter public struct was populated by a mix of (void*)
casting and int pointers, usually pulling directly from the data in the private
struct.
Remove the public struct, replace it with MetaFrameBorders and scrap all
the pointer hacks to populate it, instead relying on both structs being used
in common code.
This commit should be relatively straightforward, and it should not do any
tricky logic at all, just a sophisticated find and replace.

In preparation for switching to handling the output shape purely by what we
paint, stop applying a shape to the frame of the window. Even when we restore
handling the output shape, this will change the behavior with respect to input;
transparent areas between the frame and the contents will stop clicks rather
than passing them through, but that is arguably at least as expected
considering how that we decorate shaped windows with a frame all around.
