In order to let applications gracefully handle version mismatches, add

If the coordinates was for a stream not at the stage position (0, 0),
they'd be incorrect. Fix this by correctly translating the coordinates

When the buffer modifier is DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR, we can use the
old code path. That means not specifying any modifier parameter.
It was an issue when the primary GPU was creating a linear GBM surface
and that a secondary GPU (not supporting modifiers) was trying to
import it. It was failing because the driver could not use the
import_modifiers extension even though it could in theory easily
import the buffer.

We were retrieving the supported KMS modifiers for all GPUs even
though what we really need to intersect between these sets of
modifiers:
1) KMS supported modifiers for primary GPU if the GPU is used for
scanout;
2) EGL supported modifiers for secondary GPUs (different than the
primary GPU used for rendering);
3) GBM supported modifiers when creating the surface (already
taken care of by gbm_surface_create_with_modifiers());

There seems to be a kernel race when one disconnects an external
monitor connected to a DisplayPort via a USB-C adapter. The race
results in a connector being reported as connected, but without any
modes supported.
This had the side effect that we tried to set a preferred mode to
the first listed mode, but as no modes were available, we instead tried
to dereference the first element of a NULL array, causing a
segmentation fault.
Mitigate this by skipping adding output if no supported modes are
advertised and the output doesn't support scaling, while moving the
fallback path for calculating a preferred output mode to after possibly
adding the common modes, to avoid the unvolentary NULL dereference.

Opening and closing the device may result into XI2 grabs being cut short,

Work this around by keeping the XI1 XDevice attached to the

Now that we have the list of supported modifiers from the monitor
manager (via the CRTCs to the primary planes), we can use this to inform
EGL it can use those modifiers to allocate the GBM surface with. Doing
so allows us to use tiling and compression for our scanout surfaces.
This requires the Mesa commit in:
Mesa 10.3 (08264e5dad4df448e7718e782ad9077902089a07) or
Mesa 10.2.7 (55d28925e6109a4afd61f109e845a8a51bd17652).
Otherwise Mesa closes the fd behind our back and re-importing will fail.

Using 800x600 as minimum logical size is very 4:3 thinking, while a lot of
modern devices are 16:9. The specific reason for this commit is to allow
1.5 scaling at mini-laptops (clamshell devices) with e.g. a 5.5"
1280x720 screen. Given that this device has a keyboard, one obviously
is not holding it very close to ones eyes and at 220 dpi that means the text
is too small at scale 1.0. For one real world example of such a device see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPD_Winhttps://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792765
The device orientation coming out of iio-sensor-proxy defines upright/normal
as the direction in which the picture is displayed on the LCD panel without
any rotation. This is necessary for accelerometer rotation to work properly
in desktop environments which are not aware of panel-orientation issues.
This means that we need to correct the logical-monitor-config / user-visible
rotation for the panel-orientation when we get rotation info from
iio-sensor-proxy.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
Just like we swap the x and y resolution of the monitor modes when
the panel-orientation requires 90 or 270 degree rotation to compensate,
we should do the same for the width and height in mm of the monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
If a monitor's max resolution is a portrait resolution, then assume it is
a native portrait monitor and add portrait versions of the common modes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
Even if the logical_monitor config does not have an active transform,
we might still be doing a transform under the hood to compensate for
panel-orientation. Check for this and fall back to the sw cursor if this
is the case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
If a LCD panel has a non normal orientation (mounted upside-down or 90
degrees rotated) then the kernel will report touchscreen coordinates with
the origin matching the native (e.g. upside down) coordinates of the panel.
Since we transparently rotate the image on the panel to correct for the
non normal panel-orientation, we must apply the same transform to input
coordinates to keep the aligned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782294
Some x86 clamshell design devices use portrait tablet LCD panels while
they should use a landscape panel, resoluting in a 90 degree rotated
picture.
Newer kernels detect this and rotate the fb console in software to
compensate. These kernels also export their knowledge of the LCD panel
orientation vs the casing in a "panel orientation" drm_connector property.
This commit adds support to mutter for reading the "panel orientation"
and transparently (from a mutter consumer's pov) fixing this by applying
a (hidden) rotation transform to compensate for the panel orientation.

We only counted configured monitors and whether the config was
applicable (could be assigned), howeverwe didn't include disabled
monitors when comparing. This could caused incorrect configurations to
be applied when trying to use the previous configuration.
One scenario where this happened was one a system with one laptop
screen and one external monitor that was hot plugged some point after
start up. When the laptop lid was closed, the 'previous configuration'
being the configuration where only the laptop panel was enabled, passed
'is-complete' check as the number of configured monitors were correct,
and the configuration was applicable.
Avoid this issue by simply comparing the configuration key of the
previous configuration and the configuration key of the current state.
This correctly identifies a laptop panel with the lid closed as
inaccessible, thus doesn't incorrectly revert to the previous
configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788915
When deriving the list of disabled monitors when creating new monitors
configs, don't include the laptop panel if the lid is currently closed,
as we consider the laptop panel nonexistent when the laptop lid is
closed when it comes to configuration.
The laptop panel connector(s) will either way be appropriately disabled
anyway, as the field listing disabled monitors in the configuration do
not affect actual CRTC/connector assignments.

Commit b1a0bf891 broke the previous logic that we would only fallback
to the root cursor if 1) windows are not interactable or 2) no window
cursor is currently set (i.e. not hovering over any window). Now it
will set up the root cursor if it's NULL, which breaks clients
explicitly setting an invisible cursor. This commit restaurates the
previous behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754806
This function is supposedly not failable, so just move the theme_dirty
flag clearing to the beginning of the function. Protects against cases
where requesting a cursor image may result in it being loaded and set
as a texture, which emits ::texture-changed, which may end up requesting
the cursor image again.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754806
As wayland implements the cursor role, it consists of a persistent
MetaCursorSprite that gets the backing texture changed. This is
inconvenient for the places using MetaCursorTracker to track cursor
changes, as they actually track MetaCursorSprites.
This signal will be used to trigger emission of
MetaCursorTracker::cursor-changed, which will make users able to
update accordingly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754806
Just like X11/XFixes behaves, the current cursor is not affected
by its visibility, so it can be queried while invisible (possibly
to be replaced).
For this, keep an extra effective_cursor pointer that will be
either equal to displayed_cursor (maybe a bit of a misnomer now)
or NULL if the cursor is invisible. The MetaCursorRenderer
management is tied to the former, and the ::cursor-changed signal
emission to the latter.

Bluetooth mouse usually goes in sleep state after a timeout, when that
happen the mouse is disconnected and on_device_removed function is
called. Before the patch if a touch device is available the
on_device_removed function hide the cursor. The issue is that the cursor
does not reappear once the bluetooth mouse is reconnected because
MetaBackend::current_device_id is not invalidated when on_device_removed
was called.
The patch set MetaBackend::current_device_id to 0 if the current device
is removed. This will make update_last_device to be triggered as soon as
another input device is used or the bluetooth mouse reconnect, as
consequence that the cursor reappear. The id 0 is never given to devices

Check that if there are multiple modes with the same ID (resolution,

When generating MetaMonitorMode's, prefer CRTC modes that has the same
set of flags as the preferred mode. This not only is probably a better

Under X11 we can only ever have the same scale configured on all
monitors. In order to use e.g. scale 2 when there is a HiDPI monitor
connected, we must not disallow it because there is a monitor that does
not support scale 2. Thus we must show the same scale for every monitor
and monitor mode, even though it might result in a bad experience.
Do this by iterating through all the monitors adding all supported
scales by the preferred mode, combining all the supported scales. This

On hybrid GPU systems, hardware cursors needs to be realized on all the
GPUs, as scanout cursor planes cannot be shared. Do this by moving gbm
buffer and drm buffer ID management to a per GPU struct, realizing a
cursor on each GPU when previously only realized on the primary GPU.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785381
A hybrid GPU system is a system where more than one GPU is connected to
connectors. A common configuration is having a integrated GPU (iGPU)
connected to a laptop panel, and a dedicated GPU (dGPU) connected to
one or more external connector (such as HDMI).
This commit adds support for rendering the compositor stage using the
iGPU, then copying the framebuffer content onto a secondary framebuffer
that will be page flipped on the CRTC of the dGPU.
This can work in two different ways: GPU accelerated using Open GL ES
3, or CPU unaccelerated.
When supported, GPU accelerated copying works by exporting the iGPU
onscreen framebuffer as a DMA-BUF, importing it as a texture on a
separate dGPU EGL context, then using glBlitFramebuffer(), blitting it
onto a framebuffer on the dGPU that can then be page flipped on the dGPU
CRTC.
When GPU acceleration is not available, copying works by creating two
dumb buffers, and each frame glReadPixels() from the iGPU EGL render
context directly into the dumb buffer. The dumb buffer is then page
flipped on the dGPU CRTC.
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

The monitor manager instance was created and setup in one step; at
construction. This is problematic if, in the future, the monitor manager

post init backend setup, "setup" the monitor manager state, i.e. read
the current state and setup the stage.

let the application discover stream by monitoring added nodes searching
for the given special purpose entry, just pass the node directly.

This commit adds basic screen casting and remote desktoping
functionalty. This works by exposing two D-Bus API services:
org.gnome.Mutter.ScreenCast and org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop.
The remote desktop API is used to create remote desktop sessions. For
each session, a D-Bus object is created, and an application can manage
the session by sending messages to the session object. A remote desktop
session the user to emit input events using the D-Bus methods on the
session object. To get framebuffer content, the application should
create an associated screen cast session.
The screen cast API is used to create screen cast sessions. One can so
far either create stand-alone screen cast sessions, or a screen cast
session associated with a remote desktop session. A remote desktop
associated screen cast session is managed by the remote desktop session.
So far only remote desktop managed screen cast sessions are implemented.
Each screen cast session may have one or more streams. A screen cast
stream is a stream of buffers of some part of the compositor content.
So far API exists for creating streams of monitors and windows, but
only monitor streams are implemented.
When a screen cast session is started, the one PipeWire stream is
created for each screen cast stream created for the session. When this
has happened, a PipeWireStreamAdded signal is emitted on the stream
object, passing a unique identifier. The application may use this
identifier to find the associated stream being advertised by the
PipeWire daemon.
The remote desktop and screen cast functionality must be explicitly be
enabled at ./configure time by passing --enable-remote-desktop to
./configure. Doing this will build both screen cast and remote desktop
support.
To actually enable the screen casting and remote desktop, the user must
enable the experimental feature. See
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features.

When monitors changed, previous monitor instances are defunct, and any
reference holder should drop its reference. Sometimes they will want to
continue having a reference to the same monitor, so add this function
to make it possible to find it.
Currently the output and crtc references are invalid, as they are not
yet reference counted, so this can only look at cached fields.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784199
Trying to unilaterally require eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT causes problems in
scenarios where this method is not available. Besides, this should only be
required on Wayland, so we can stop requiring it always and simply let the
eglGetPlatformDisplay() function error accordingly when needed.

The HW cursor plane can't do any transformations, and as we still don't
pre-transform any buffer before uploading to the cursor plane, we must
disable the HW cursor when a logical monitor is transformed.
This worked previously because the transform of a MetaCrtc did not
correspond to the transform of a CRTC, but the transform of the logical
monitor the CRTC was assigned to.

When another D-Bus call that just tries to verify a configuration is

Add API to get the layout group (layout index) currently active. In the
native backend this is done by fetching the state directly from the

Don't wait for clutter to initialize for connecting to X11; do it when

When opening a laptop lid, one will likely want to restore the
configuration one had prior to closing it, so when ensuring monitor
configuration, first try to see if the previously set configuration is
both complete (all connected monitors are configured) and applicable
(it is a valid configuration) and only try to generate a new from
scratch if that failed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In order to go back in monitor configurations, save them to a history.
The history is implemented as a max 3 element long queue, where newly
set configurations are pushed to the head, and old are popped from the
tail.
The difference between using a single previous config reference and a
queue is that we can now remember the configuration used prior to a
D-Bus triggered configuration when the user discarded the configuration.
This will later be used to restore a previous configuration when a
laptop lid is opened.

This commit changes the new configuration system to use monitors.xml
instead of monitors-experimental.xml. When starting up and the
monitors.xml file is loaded, if a legacy monitors.xml file is
discovered (it has the version number 1), an attempt is made to migrate
the stored configuration onto the new system.
This is done in two steps:
1) Parsing and translation of the old configuration. This works by
parsing file using the mostly the old parser, but then translating the
resulting configuration structs into the new configuration system. As
the legacy configuration system doesn't carry over some state (such as
tiling and scale used), some things are not available. For tiling, the
migration paths makes an attempt to discover tiled monitors by
comparing EDID data, and guessing what the main tile is. Determination
of the scale of a migrated configuration is postponed until the
configuration is actually applied. This works by flagging the
configuration as 'migrated'.
2) Finishing the migration when applying. When a configuration with the
'migrated' flag is retrieved from the configuration store, the final
step of the migration is taken place. This involves calculating the
preferred scale given the mode configured, while making sure this
doesn't result in any overlapping logical monitor regions etc.

The zero-initialized winsys id was incorrectly used as the key to find

The problem is that libinput offers the possibility to not enabled
dragging when tap-to-click is enabled but mutter doesn't. For people who
have a sensitive touchpad and who like tap-to-click option, dragging is
launched even when you don't want it : for example, when you select a
folder, most of the time the folder is dragging whereas just selected or
when you want to select some lines of a text file, several lines are
moved as a cut-paste which is not expected and erase datas.
To fix it, you need to have the possibility to desactivate the drag
option when you use tap-to-click in mutter. Because it's already a
specification of libinput, it remains to add it to mutter.
Implementation with X11 is added too.

This will allows us to support the XF86Display key present on some
laptops, directly in mutter. This is also known, in evdev, as
KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE.
The common usage for this key is to alternate between a few well known
multi-monitor configurations though these aren't officially
standardized. As an example, Lenovo documents it as:
"Switches the display output location between the computer display
and an external monitor."
On this patch, we're just introducing the configurations that have been
implemented in g-s-d until now, which go a bit beyond the above
description.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781906
Instead of letting MetaMonitor derive the logical monitor size, then
using the main monitor for the position, just let MetaMonitor derive
the whole layout including the position. This means it can deal with
tiled monitors better, for example when the main output (the output
always active when the monitor is active) is not the origin output (the
output with tile position (0, 0)).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
Just like we do for buttons, with a few twists. These have 2 directions
mappable to different keycombos, and are affected by the current mode

This basically moves g-s-d's orientation plugin into mutter so that
eventually g-s-d doesn't need to build monitor configurations by
itself anymore.

When verifying if a configuration is applicable, don't set it as

Differentiate between non-interlaced and interlaced modes. This is done
by appending an "i" after the resolution part of the mode ID, and
adding a 'is-interlaced' (b) property to the mode properties.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be more flexible without having to change any D-Bus type signatures
in the future, replace the 'uint' flags value (currently determining
whether a mode is current and/or preferred) with a variant lookup table.
The keys 'is-current' (b) and 'is-preferred' (b) replace the existing
flags.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to add more modes types that happen to have the same
resolution and refresh rate, change the API to specify modes using an
ID string. The ID string is temporary, and only works for associating a

When calculating sizes given some size and a fractional logical monitor
scale with precision loss, round the result of the floating point
calculation to the closest integer, as otherwise we might end up with
result smaller by 1 if there was a loss of precision when calculating
the scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to render the pointer cursor sprite at sub-(logical)-pixel
positions, track the pointer position using floats instead of ints.
This also requires users of the cursor sprite rect to deal with
floating points, when e.g. finding the logical monitor etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When passing scales over D-Bus, we'll loose some precision. To set the
correct scale, use the configured scale and look up the one actually
supported by the monitor mode, and use that. To match the supported one
with the configured one, the difference must be within rounding error
range.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
We manually scaled pointer motions when they travel over a scaled
monitor. When a stage view of a monitor is also scaled, in practice this
meant we scaled twice. Avoid this by only manually scaling the pointer
motion when stage views are not scaled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When using logical sized monitors we are allowed to use fractional scaling
but only if the resulting scaled logical monitor size is in integer form.
So, in order to get this, we allow to scale the monitor to up to
8 fractional values per integer, doing some computation in order to
fetch the nearest values which are closer to the scaling factors we can
permit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
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
To support fractional scaling, change the stage view scale to be a
float instead of an int. Also change the places where it is retrieved
and used when scaling things.

With GLVND, whenever we have both Mesa's and NVIDIA's drives installed
in the system, initializing the GBM backend will always succeed,
regardless of what GPU you have on your system.
This is due to GBM's software rendering fallback.

Wacom's display tablets typically do not have (0,0) coincident with the top
left corner of the screen. This "outbound" area must be taken into account
when setting the area or else an unexpected offset of the pointer will
occur.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784009
It is possible to interpret the ammount of padding provided to the
*_set_tablet_area functions in two different and incompatible ways. The X11
backend effectively treats them as being input-centric (i.e., the padding
defines the size of the "dead zone" on the tablet) while the native backend
has an output-centric viewpoint (i.e., the padding defines the size of the
"dead zone" on the display) viewpoint. This difference in opinion causes the
cursor offset to change when switching between Xorg and a Wayland sessions.
The calibration utility within g-c-c does its calculations with an input-
centric viewpoint, so this patch modifies the native backend to work
correctly with these values. To change viewpoints, we can simply invert
the scale and negate the offset. It should be noted that this function
also forgot to apply scaling to the offsets (as required by the matrix
transform done by libinput) which would have further compounded the
cursor offset issue under Wayland.

We will both create and destroy monitors during initialization (when
using the X11 backend), so don't try to access the monitor manager from
the backend, but store a pointer to it instead.
It's stored in MetaMonitor even though only MetaMonitorTiled uses it,
mostly because it makes more sense to store such a pointer there.

In some circumstances, the origin tile (0, 0) is not the one that
should be used to drive the monitor when using a non-tiled mode. Update
MetaMonitorTiled to support this case. It also seems to be so that the
preferred mode might be some low resolution or bogus mode on these
monitors, so also adapt MetaMonitorTiled to manage to ignore the
preferred mode of a tiled monitor if the preferred mode doesn't use
both tiles.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
Only support suggested monitor positioning if the monitor is non-tiled.

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.

g_hash_table_insert() doesn't replace the key. This was a problem
because the key was owned by the value inserted into the hash table, so
when a value was removed, the key was freed, meaning that the key in
the hash table was no pointing to freed memory. Fix this by using
g_hash_table_replace() instead, which work the same except that it
replaces the key with the one passed. This means that the key of a

Instead of looking at the GTK+ settings, check the logical monitor
state and determine the UI scaling factor given the maximum logical

This adds a function to be used by gnome-shell to get the logical

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The connector returned is the one of the main output. In other words,
for tiled monitors, it is the connector of the (0, 0) tile, and for

Make the nested backend emulate how the real backends actually draw,
i.e. by drawing each CRTC separately. This makes it possible to test
different configuration paths that can take place on different
hardware, without having said hardware.
For example, by setting MUTTER_DEBUG_TILED_DUMMY_MONITORS and
MUTTER_DEBUG_NESTED_OFFSCREEN_TRANSFORM to "1", one can test a system
with MST (tiled) monitors where the GPU doesn't support some transform.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add the transform as a logical monitor parameter, both when getting the
current state and applying a new configuration. The transform is defined
to be identical to MetaMonitorTransform.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Adds a <transform> element to <logicalmonitor>. It has two possible sub
elemenst: <rotation> which can be normal, right, left or upside_down,
and <flipped> which can either be true or false.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add support for rotated monitors. This is done per logical monitor, as
every monitor assigned to a logical monitor must be transformed in the
same way. This includes being transformed on the same level; e.g. if
the backend does not support transforming any monitor of a logical
monitor natively, then all monitors will be transformed using the
offscreen intermediate framebuffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Always draw the stage to an offscreen framebuffer when using the nested
backend, so that we more emulate things more similarly to how it works
real-world, i.e. it'll work the way whether stage views are enabled or
not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The CRTC position depends on the transform and how the transform is
implemented. The function calculating the positions still doesn't
support anything but the non-transformed case; this commit is in
preparation of adding support for transforms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Keep track of the logical monitor transform. When a logical monitor is
transformed, all of its monitors are also transformed in the same way.
A logical monitor can either be transformed on the CRTC level, or using
an offscreen intermediate buffer. In both cases will the logical
monitor be transformed, but only in the latter will the view be
transformed.
MetaCrtcs::transform currently does not represent whether the CRTC is
configured to be transformed or not; only when the backend can handle
it does it correctly correspond to the actual CRTC configuration. This
is intended to change with MetaMonitorConfigManager.

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
This gsetting will allow the adding of keywords to a array, where each
keyword may enable an experimental feauter, if the given mutter version
supports that particular experimental feature. Emphasis is put on the
lack of guarantee that any such keyword has any effect. Currently no
keywords are defined.

Make the concept of maximum screen size optional, as it is not

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.

The exception to this is when there is only one logical monitor, which
cannot be adjecent to any other.

We don't want to limit ourself to whole integers for configuration, as
that'd mean it wouldn't be able to provide configurations for
fractional scalings. Thus, change scales to be referred to as floats
instead of ints.

Add a 'is_underscanning' entry to the properties map, if the monitor
supports underscanning. The client should assume a monitor does not
support underscanning if no property was added.

Add a D-Bus method for getting the current monitor and logical monitor
state. Currently does not contain information about transforms or any
limitations (such as limited CRTCs and cloning).

Let the backends decide whether to just rebuild a derived state, or use
the NULL config to rebuild an empty logical state.
This also changes the expected screen size values of the no-outputs
test; as this case is actually handled now.

Add support to configure the logical monitor scale. With this, it
becomes possible to override the automatically calculated scaling
number per logical monitor.

Replace the 'scale' of an output with a vfunc on the MetaMonitorManager
class that takes a monitor and a monitor mode which calculates the
scale. On X11 this always returns 1, on KMS, the old formula is used.
On the dummy and test backends, the already configured values are
returned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The default (calculated) scale is derived from the output, but
ultimately set via the monitor scale. This will enable config files to
override the scale. Yet to be done is handling when a scale is not
supported by a backend (i.e. the X11 backend).

In some cases the hardware cursor is invisible when Mutter is launched from the
TTY, due to drmModeSetCursor2 failing without a fallback being set.
This patch captures the return value of drmModeSetCursor2 and in case of an
error, enables the texture based fallback. It adds a `broken` state, that is
checked in should_have_hw_cursor() and
meta_cursor_renderer_native_realize_cursor_from_*() to avoid copying every
cursor into a gbm buffer when we know it will fail every single time.
