Right now we accept any character device that matches the glob card*.
That's fine, but we can be a little more specific by checking that

Using the view's MetaMonitorInfo to find all the crtcs which should be
configured to display a given onscreen doesn't work unfortunately. The
association runs only the other way around, i.e. we need to go through
each crtc and find the ones corresponding to our monitor info.

If this isn't initialized and an idle watch gets instanced before
meta_idle_monitor_native_reset_idletime() gets called, that idle watch
would get triggered as soon as we hit the main loop.
This was causing gnome-session to go into idle mode at session start
thus making gnome-shell lock the screen.
In the past this bug was being masked by either logind emiting
session active signals or a stray input event making it through at
startup.

This isn't technically needed and, in fact, makes us default to
interlaced modes in some cases which isn't desirable.

As the m format specifier doesn't consume any arguments, the number
of varargs currently doesn't match the number of specifiers; the
failed transform may be relevant, so include it in the message
instead of removing the excess argument.
Some output devices only advertise their preferred mode even though
they're able to display others too. This means we can include some
common modes in each output's supported list.
This is particularly important for mirroring, since we can only mirror
outputs which are using the same resolution.

This signal allows interested parties to be notified of a new cursor

Switch to the output naming logic used by the X server's modesetting
driver which, in particular, uses drmModeConnector's connector_type_id
instead of connector_id.
The kernel generates new connector_id's every time there are changes
which means we can't identify the same monitor on the same connector

We can only honor this properly in the MUTTER_STAGE_VIEWS=1 case. When using
the legacy view, software implemented transforms are only exposed if there is
only one output, as we can only transform the entire stage there.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745079
The texture is only created if the view is transformed at the software level,
otherwise the texture is NULL, and rendering happens on the onscreen.

The offscreen is given through the ::back-buffer property, the ClutterStageView
will set up the the CoglPipeline used to render it back to the "onscreen"
framebuffer.
The pipeline can be altered through the setup_pipeline() vfunc, so ClutterStageView
implementations can alter the default behavior of blitting from offscreen to
onscreen with no transformations.
All getters of "the framebuffer" that were expecting to get an onscreen have
been updated to call the right clutter_stage_view_get_onscreen() function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745079
The call to _cogl_framebuffer_winsys_update_size() results in no-op here,
as the framebuffer has already the right size when rebuilding the views.

Those will need a separate treatment from the modes that we eventually
support through "software", so split those into a separate enum so we
can can do the right thing when applying the configuration.
Also, add a helper function that returns the transform that the software
fallbacks should perform, which should be "normal" if the rotation is
already handled via hw.
The function applying the configuration has been modified to always set
a HW rotation mode (even if normal), when we come to support SW rotation
modes, we'll be relying on a normal transformation, so it will be
necessary to have mixed HW/SW managed transforms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745079
The scale will have been set to 1 no matter what when initializing the

Support changing the mouse and trackball acceleration profile. This
makes it possible to for example disable pointer acceleration by
choosing the 'flat' profile.
This adds an optional dependency on gudev. Gudev is used by the X11
backend to detect whether a device is a mouse or not. Without gudev
support, the accel profile settings has have effect for mouse devices.
Trackball still uses the "strstr" approach, since udev doesn't support
tagging devices as trackball devices yet.

Add support for setting edge-scrolling separately from two-finger
scrolling. We now have 2 separate boolean settings for those, with the
Mouse panel in gnome-control-center allowing to set only one of those at

We need to handle:
- two-finger-scrolling-enabled and edge-scrolling-enabled settings both
being set.
- those 2 settings being change out-of-order
- two-finger-scrolling being set on a device that doesn't support it
- edge-scrolling-enabled on a device that doesn't support it
And the combinations of one touchpad supporting just one of edge
scrolling and two-finger scrolling and another vice-versa.

They are already effectively interchangeable so this should reduce
pointless casts.
Just like in GDK though, we need to keep the old definition for
instrospection to be able to include the struct's fields.
By creating a pending gbm/EGL surface pair, only setting it on
swap-buffers, we would draw onto a buffer on the old surface, then swap
the buffer from the new surface, causing the first frame after a
hot-plug always having no content.
This was in the past not very noticable since some non-deterministic but
frequent side effect in gnome-shell caused hot-plugging to always render
two new frames, but after "Introduce regional stage rendering", this
side effect did not occur as often, thus making it more visible.
This commit updates the current gbm/EGL surface pair before painting a
frame, so that when the frame is painted, the surface with the correct
size is used and the buffer from correct surface is swapped.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
CoglFrameInfo is a frame info container associated with a single
onscreen framebuffer. The clutter stage will eventually support drawing
a stage frame with multiple onscreen framebuffers, thus needs its own
frame info container.
This patch introduces a new stage signal 'presented' and a accompaning
ClutterFrameInfo and adapts the stage windows and past onscreen frame
callbacks users to use the signal and new info container.

Call a CoglContext "cogl_context", CoglDisplay "cogl_display" and

Make the cogl vfunc functions have names that are globally
discoverable. Calling the same function in every backend the same name

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
Add support for drawing a stage using multiple framebuffers each making
up one part of the stage. This works by the stage backend
(ClutterStageWindow) providing a list of views which will be for
splitting up the stage in different regions.
A view layout, for now, is a set of rectangles. The stage window (i.e.
stage "backend" will use this information when drawing a frame, using
one framebuffer for each view. The scene graph is adapted to explictly
take a view when painting the stage. It will use this view, its
assigned framebuffer and layout to offset and clip the drawing
accordingly.
This effectively removes any notion of "stage framebuffer", since each
stage now may consist of multiple framebuffers. Therefore, API
involving this has been deprecated and made no-ops; namely
clutter_stage_ensure_context(). Callers are now assumed to either
always use a framebuffer reference explicitly, or push/pop the
framebuffer of a given view where the code has not yet changed to use
the explicit-buffer-using cogl API.
Currently only the nested X11 backend supports this mode fully, and the
per view framebuffers are all offscreen. Upon frame completion, it'll
blit each view's framebuffer onto the onscreen framebuffer before
swapping.
Other backends (X11 CM and native/KMS) are adapted to manage a
full-stage view. The X11 CM backend will continue to use this method,
while the native/KMS backend will be adopted to use multiple view
drawing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
In preperation for having allowing drawing onto multiple onscreen
framebuffers, move the onscreen framebuffer handling to the
corresponding winsys dependent backends.
Currently the onscreen framebuffer is still accessed, but, as can seen
by the usage of "legacy" in the accessor name, it should be considered
the legacy method. Eventually only the X11 Compositing Manager backend
will make use of the legacy single onscreen framebuffer API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768976
Split the stage window implementations into three separate objects: one
for X11 as a compositing manager, one for X11 running as a nested
Wayland compositor, and one for running with the native backend.
The new stage window implementations are only thin shells; this is in
preparation for making the stage windows behave more differently.

Move the KMS interaction from cogl into mutter, where most of the other
KMS interaction already takes place. This also removes dead code which
were only excercised when non-mutter callers used the cogl KMS backend.
The cogl KMS API was updated to pass via MetaRendererNative instead of
via the different cogl objects.

Sadly, GLib's autoptr cleanup macros cannot be detected by the C
pre-processor, because they generate a function. This means that we are
forced to bump up the dependency on GLib 2.49, in order to build against
a newer version of gdbus-codegen.
Starting from GLib 2.49, the gdbus-codegen tool automatically generates
the auto cleanup symbols for the GDBus proxy and skeleton interfaces.
Since we don't depend on a specific version of GLib we need to
conditionally generate the auto cleanup symbols in case an older version
of gdbus-codegen is used when building Mutter.
This commit unbreaks the build under GNOME Continuous, which has been
failing with:

The wp_pointer_constraints protocol is a protocol which enables clients
to manipulate the behavior of the pointer cursor associated with a seat.
Currently available constraints are locking the pointer to a static
position, and confining the pointer to a given region.
Currently locking is fully implemented, and confining is implemented for
rectangular confinement regions.
What else is lacking is less troublesome semantics for enabling the lock
or confinement; currently the only requirement implemented is that the
window that appears focused is the one that may aquire the lock.
This means that a pointer could be 'stolen' by creating a new window that
receives active focus, or when using focus-follows-mouse, a pointer
passes a window that has requested a lock. This semantics can be changed
and the protocol itself allows any semantics as seems fit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744104
In order to reuse some vector math for pointer confinement, move out
those parts to its own file, introducing the types old types
"MetaVector2" and "MetaLine2" outside of meta-barrier-native.c, as well
as introducing MetaBorder which is a line, with a blocking direction.

This fixes an issue analogous to bug 760330 for the X11 backend,

_meta_idle_monitor_watch_fire() they're no longer there and thus
they're never free'd.

We can know the rotation modes supported by the driver, so
export these as our supported modes, and ensure these modes
are honored on the CRTC primary plane upon apply_configuration().
It is worth noting however that not all hardware will be
capable of supporting all rotation modes (in fact, most of
them won't). A driver independent solution should be in
place to back up the rotation modes unsupported by the
drivers, so this is still a partial solution.
The cursor renderer has also been changed to default to
software-based rendering anytime the cursor enters a
rotated CRTC. Another solution would be actually rotating
the DRM cursor planes, but then it requires applying rotation on
these per-CRTC, and actually transforming the pointer position by
the output matrix. This brings marginal gains, so we use the
"sw" rendered cursor, which will be transformed together with
the primary plane.

On the wire, Wayland specifies the refresh rate in milliHz. Mutter sends
the refresh rate in Hz, which confuses clients, e.g. weston-info:
interface: 'wl_output', version: 2, name: 4
mode:
width: 2560 px, height: 1440 px, refresh: 0 Hz,
flags: current preferred
interface: 'wl_output', version: 2, name: 5
mode:
width: 3200 px, height: 1800 px, refresh: 0 Hz,
flags: current preferred
and xrandr:
XWAYLAND0 connected 2560x1440+3200+0 600mm x 340mm
2560x1440@0.1Hz 0.05*+
XWAYLAND1 connected 3200x1800+0+0 290mm x 170mm
3200x1800@0.1Hz 0.03*+
Export the refresh rate in the correct units. For improved precision,
perform the KMS intermediate calculations in milliHz as well, and
account for interlaced/doublescan modes.
This is also consistent with what GTK+ expects:
timings->refresh_interval = 16667; /* default to 1/60th of a second */
/* We pick a random output out of the outputs that the window touches
* The rate here is in milli-hertz */
int refresh_rate = _gdk_wayland_screen_get_output_refresh_rate (wayland_display->screen,
impl->outputs->data);
if (refresh_rate != 0)
timings->refresh_interval = G_GINT64_CONSTANT(1000000000) / refresh_rate;
Where the 'refresh_rate' given is exactly what's come off the wire.
1000000000/60000 comes out as 16667, whereas divided by 60 is ...
substantially less.

g_error() is the wrong thing to do when, for example, we can't find the

Calling queue_redraw() in _force_update() is not needed because
update_cursor() will do this when needed, i.e. when switching between

There is also no need to force _native_force_update() because
update_cursor() will cover this as well when needed. When not changing
cursor but only the gbm_bo, the "dirty" boolean on the gbm_bo will
trigger a redraw.

This commits refactors cursor handling code and plugs in logic so that
cursor sprites changes appearance as it moves across the screen.
Renderers are adapted to handle the necessary functionality.
The logic for changing the cursor sprite appearance is done outside of
MetaCursorSprite, and actually where depends on what type of cursor it
is. In mutter we now have two types of cursors that may have their
appearance changed:
- Themed cursors (aka root cursors)
- wl_surface cursors
Themed cursors are created by MetaScreen and when created, when
applicable(*), it will extend the cursor via connecting to a signal
which is emitted everytime the cursor is moved. The signal handler will
calculate the expected scale given the monitor it is on and reload the
theme in a correct size when needed.
wl_surface cursors are created when a wl_surface is assigned the
"cursor" role, i.e. when a client calls wl_pointer.set_cursor. A
cursor role object is created which is connected to the cursor object
by the position signal, and will set a correct texture scale given what
monitor the cursor is on and what scale the wl_surface's active buffer
is in. It will also push new buffers to the same to the cursor object
when new ones are committed to the surface.
This commit also makes texture loading lazy, since the renderer doesn't
calculate a rectangle when the cursor position changes.
The native backend is refactored to be triple-buffered; see the comment
in meta-cursor-renderer-native.c for further explanations.

There were lots of code handling the native renderer specific cases;
move these parts to the renderer. Note that this causes the X11 case to
always generate the texture which is a waste of memory, but his

always loaded anyway indirectly by the renderer to calculate the
current rect.

this just adds backend support for retrieving the tile
information from X11 (randr 1.5) and native backends.
It stores the tiling information into the output struct.
This makes gnome-settings-daemon turn on the backlight and
gnome-shell's screen shield animate.
Note that on X sessions, gnome-settings-daemon uses the same upower
property to force an innocuous key event into the X server so that the
idle time gets reset since Xorg doesn't do this itself on lid events.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749076
This seems nicer/tidier than the current X11 (center on the span of all
monitors) or native (so close to the activities corner it's hard not
to trigger it) platform behaviors.
This code also takes over the native-specific pointer warping that
happens when the pointer was over a removed output.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746896

Otherwise the pointer might be "lost" outside the visible area. Note
that the constraining code only ensures the pointer doesn't leave the

When running as a dispay server pointer barriers are a server side

EDID parsing has been refactored to a common meta_output_parse_edid()
function, which ensures the extracted information is the same on both KMS

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742882
In recent versions of the QXL driver, it may set "suggested X|Y" connector
properties. These properties are used to indicate the position at which
multiple displays should be aligned. If all outputs have a suggested position,
the displays are arranged according to these positions, otherwise we fall back
to the default configuration.
At the moment, we trust that the driver has chosen sane values for the
suggested position.
meta_monitor_config_match_current() only matches the number of outputs
and if the output connector, vendor, product and serial match.
In the X backend, this means that we can't use it to bypass doing any
work because it won't detect cases where we actually want to update
ourselves like e.g. an output being turned off either by us or by
another X client (e.g. xrandr).
In the native backend, unlike the xrandr backend, we only get called
on real hotplug events and thus should always trigger the common
hotplug code to (possibly) apply a new mode so the check is pointless
anyway.

This allows creating the stage much earlier than it otherwise would have
been. Our initialization sequence has always been a bit haphazard, with
first the MetaBackend created, then the MetaDisplay, and inside of that,
the MetaScreen and MetaCompositor.
Refactor this out so that the MetaBackend creates the Clutter
stage. Besides the clarity of early initialization, we now have much
easier access to the stage, allowing us to use it for things such as
key focus and beyond.
These methods allow us to set and get xkbcommon keymaps as well as
locking a specific layout in a layout group.
With this, we introduce dependencies on xkeyboard-config, xkbfile,

The output_id is more of an opaque identifier for the monitor, based on
its underlying ID from the windowing system. Since we also use the term
"output_id" for the output's index, rename our use of the opaque cookie
"output_id" to "winsys_id".
This uses David Herrmann's new logind sessions interface to retrieve
fds for input devices, rather than using a custom setuid helper to do
the management. This vastly simplifies the interface.
This requires systemd v210, at least.

When switching from the stage cursor to the native cursor, we
forgot to repaint the stage to get rid of the old cursor. Fix
this by having the abstract cursor renderer class track whether
we're using the backend, rather than doing chain-up shenanigans.
