When a viewport source rect or destination size is set, `stex->dst_width`
gives us the the cropped and/or scaled size. At this step, we need the
uncropped/unscaled size however.
Note: this is only ever relevant if buffer transform and viewport are
used together - otherwise the values are the same.

The shadow size is factored into the paint volume MetaWindowActorX11
returns in its get_paint_volume() vfunc override, so we should
invalidate the paint volume every time that shadow might change.

When using buffer transforms and viewports together, we currently
apply the transformation (read: rotation) first, resulting in
wrong buffer coordinates for viewport source rects.
Flip the order in whitch we apply our matrix transformations.
This can be tested e.g. via:
`weston-simple-damage --use-viewport --transform=flipped-180`

Currently when reordering subsurfaces, we un- and reparent all child
actors of the window actor. This is unnecessarily wasteful and
triggers bugs in clutter. While the underlying issue should be fixed
eventually, simply reorder the actors with the tools clutter provides
us with, avoiding those bugs and likely being faster as well.

When the texture size is invalidated using `invalidate_size()`, the new
size will only get calculated the next time `update_size()` is
called. This happens e.g. in `meta_shaped_texture_get_preferred_size()`
via `ensure_size_valid()`.
`update_size()` can chain up to `clutter_content_invalidate_size()`
as well as emitting a `size-changed` signal. If this happens during
layout, the result is a 'change the layout conditions during layout'
issue, causing heavy breakage in e.g. the Shell overview.
To fix this, expose `ensure_size_valid()` as API so callers can make
sure the texture has a valid size without creating redundant size
invalidations calls.
Note that if a buffer with a new size is attached we already trigger
`update_size()` explicitely, avoiding such situations.

If only a viewport destination size is set, the noop viewport has
to take the buffer scale into account.
If a viewport source but no viewport destination size is set, the
destination size is that of the viewport source, not of the whole
texture.

The order of which function argument expressions are executed is
undefined, so don't rely on this for setting the background colors, as
it results in different colors on different architectures.
For example, it has been observed that the order of execution is
reversed comparing x86_64 and aarch64, making these two architectures
having different background color.
Fix this confusion, and also reproduceability in future reference tests,
by making the order of execution predictable.

The sync ring has an API about "frames", where it is notified about
the end of frames. However, its "insert wait" call is done before
updates, meaning that some "insert waits" will never see the "after
frame" if there was no frame drawn. This will cause mismatching in the
frame counting, causing freezes in the synchronization until something
else triggers an actual frame, effectively "unfreezing" the sync ring.
Fix this by not only notifying the sync ring about frames when there
were actual frames drawn, but also on plain updates which didn't result
in a drawn frame.

This concerns only the cases when the presentation timestamp is received
directly from the device (from KMS or from GLX). In the majority of
cases this timestamp is already MONOTONIC. When it isn't, after this
commit, the current value of the MONOTONIC clock is sampled instead.
The alternative is to store the clock id alongside the timestamp, with
possible values of MONOTONIC, REALTIME (from KMS) and GETTIMEOFDAY (from
GLX; this might be the same as REALTIME, I'm not sure), and then
"convert" the timestamp to MONOTONIC when needed. An example of such a
conversion was done in compositor.c (removed in this commit). It would
also be needed for the presentation-time Wayland protocol. However, it
seems that the vast majority of up-to-date systems are using MONOTONIC
anyway, making this effort not justified.

The cache had the size 9, which was "big enough" in the past, but when
more ways pipelines could be constructed, the size was not enough. The
need to increase the cache size was hard to spot though, since adding
pipeline flag didn't give any hints about the cache being directly tied
to these flag values.
So, when enough flag bits were set when attempting to retrieve and put a
pipeline in the cache, it'd instead overwrite some arbitrary stack
memory, which would sooner or later result in a memory corruption
induced crash. Valgrind could not detect this particular memory
corruption, as it messed up stack memory, not e.g. freed heap memory, so
it instead got confused and thought plain stack values were unreadable.
Fix these two issues by making the cache size the combination of all
pipeline flags + 1, so that we can safely put any flag combination in
the cache.

GObject signals pass the emitting GObject as the first argument to
signal handler callbacks. When refactoring the grab-op-begin/end signals
to remove MetaScreen with commit 1d5e37050d,
the "screen" argument was replaced with a "display" argument instead of
being removed completely. This made us call the signal handlers with two
identical MetaDisplay arguments, which is very confusing and actually
wasn't handled in a grab-op-begin handler in gnome-shell.
So fix this by not adding the MetaDisplay as an argument to those
signals, GObject will take care of that for us.

We're going to round the workspace backgrounds in the new overview for
gnome-shell 40.
So far corner-rounding was only possible for StWidgets because the
rounded clipping was done using cairo drawing. We now need rounded
clipping for ClutterActors too because backgrounds are drawn using
ClutterActors (or more specifically a ClutterContent). To implement
that, first a ClutterOffscreenEffect subclass together with a fragment
shader from GSK (see gskSetOutputColor() [1] in the GSK GL renderer
code) was investigated, and while that was generic and worked quite
well, it was extremely slow for the case of drawing wallpapers because
of all the FBOs that had to be allocated.
This is the new, more performant approach: Use the same fragment shader,
but perform the rounded clipping right in MetaBackgroundContent while
we're painting the wallpaper. This has almost no performance impact,
with the downside of not being a generic solution.
To allow for rounded clipping not only at the edges of the wallpaper,
but using any given bounding rectangle, the API exposes not only the
radius, but also a bounding rect.

Mutter freezes Xwayland commits when resizing windows, and thaw them in
the window actors' after_paint() for X11.
Yet, after_paint() could be never called, as when a new window is mapped
while the overview is active in gnome-shell.
As a result, the content of the X11 window will remain invisible to the
overview.
Add a new window actor API to tell whether commits can be frozen. For
Wayland window actors, this always return FALSE, whereas for X11 window
actors, it checks whether the Clutter actor is mapped.

Just because of implementation details, this is only relevant to Wayland,

The timestamp sent with _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN should be in "high
resolution X server timestamps", meaning they should have the same scope
as the built in X11 32 bit unsigned integer timestamps, i.e. overflow at
the same time.
This was not done correctly when mutter had determined the X server used
the monotonic clock, where it'd just forward the monotonic clock,
confusing any client using _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN and friends.
Fix this by 1) splitting the timestamp conversiot into an X11 case and a
display server case, where the display server case simply clamps the
monotonic clock, as it is assumed Xwayland is always usign the monotonic
clock, and 2) if we're a X11 compositing manager, if the X server is
using the monotonic clock, apply the same semantics as the display
server case and always just clamp, or if not, calculate the offset every
10 seconds, and offset the monotonic clock timestamp with the calculated
X server timestamp offset.
This fixes an issue that would occur if mutter (or rather GNOME Shell)
would have been started before a X11 timestamp overflow, after the
overflow happened. In this case, GTK3 clients would get unclamped
timestamps, and get very confused, resulting in frames queued several
weeks into the future.

This reverts the commits 372d73e275 and 1d20045247 - the special
case for alpha-less textures could only happen on Wayland, but now

Just like we used to before 30809665d8.
Because in some cases `clip_region` is able to shave off an extra pixel
from the edge of the redraw rectangle(s). And not shaving that off was

occasional off-by-one artefacts. Now both shaped-texture and
background-content agree on the clip region again that doesn't happen.

Using opaque painting paths can have a big impact on painting performance.
In order to easily validate whether we use the opaque paths, add a opaque
(green) or blended (purple) overlay over painted areas if the
`META_DEBUG_PAINT_OPAQUE_REGION` `MetaDebugPaintFlag` is set.
You can do so in `lg` via:
`Meta.add_debug_paint_flag(Meta.DebugPaintFlag.OPAQUE_REGION)`
This can be helpful for application developers, as previously it was not
trivial to check whether e.g. Wayland or X11 opaque regions where
properly set.

When in the overview culling via `self->clip_region` is unavailable.
The region is `NULL` because the paint call has not originated from a
`WindowGroup`, because the overview does not use `WindowGroup`.
So the main wallpaper was being painted in full while in the overview.
That's a waste of effort because `redraw_clip` is going to be used to
stencil/scissor out only the parts that are changing. We don't need to
paint *most* of the wallpaper, only the parts behind anything changing.
For the overview this reduces GPU power usage (intel_gpu_top) roughly
10% and reduces render times almost as much.

`meta_background_content_paint_content` was mixing two different
coordinate systems in `actor_pixel_rect`. It was initialized with
actor-local coordinates and then `if (self->clip_region)` would be
treated as stage coordinates. This worked because `self->clip_region`
was only non-NULL outside of the overview where both coordinate systems
were the same. So it always got the right answer, possibly by accident.
In order to enhance the function however we will need to know which
coordinate system we're working in, so now we make it explicit.

Commit 510cbef15a changed the logic in `handle_update()` for X11 window
actors to return early if the surface is not an X11 surface.
That works fine for plain Xorg, but on Xwayland, the surface is actually

the drop shadows of server-side decorations for X11 windows.

That was obviously always the intention, but it didn't work when the
display was scaled. My 3840x2160 monitor with a 3840x2160 texture was
being rendered with LINEAR filtering.
It seems the `force_bilinear` flag was TRUE when it should be FALSE.
Because a texture area that's an integer fraction of the texture
resolution is still a perfect match when that integer is the monitor
scale. We were also getting:
`meta_actor_painting_untransformed (fb, W, H, W, H, NULL, NULL) == FALSE`
when the display was scaled. Because the second W,H was not the real
sampling resolution. So with both of those issues fixed we now get
NEAREST filtering when the texture resolution matches the resolution it's
physically being rendered at.
Note: The background texture actually wasn't equal to the physical monitor
resolution prior to January 2020 (76240e24f7). So it wasn't possible to do
this before then. Since then however, the texture resolution is always
equal to the physical monitor resolution.

gnome-shell displays workspace previews at one tenth scale. That's a
few binary orders of magnitude so even using a LINEAR filter was
resulting in visible jaggies. Now we apply mipmapping so they appear
smooth.
As an added bonus, the mipmaps used occupy roughly 1% the memory of
the original image (0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01) so they actually fit into GPU/CPU
caches now and rendering performance is improved. There's no need to
traverse the original texture which at 4K resolution occupies 33MB,
only a 331KB mipmap.
In my case this reduces the render time for the overview by ~10%.

Replace the default master clock with multiple frame clocks, each
driving its own stage view. As each stage view represents one CRTC, this
means we draw each CRTC with its own designated frame clock,
disconnected from all the others.
For example this means we when using the native backend will never need
to wait for one monitor to vsync before painting another, so e.g. having
a 144 Hz monitor next to a 60 Hz monitor, things including both Wayland
and X11 applications and shell UI will be able to render at the
corresponding monitor refresh rate.
This also changes a warning about missed frames when sending
_NETWM_FRAME_TIMINGS messages to a debug log entry, as it's expected
that we'll start missing frames e.g. when a X11 window (via Xwayland) is
exclusively within a stage view that was not painted, while another one
was, still increasing the global frame clock.
Addititonally, this also requires the X11 window actor to schedule
timeouts for _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN/_NET_WM_FRAME_TIMINGS event emitting,
if the actor wasn't on any stage views, as now we'll only get the frame
callbacks on actors when they actually were painted, while in the past,
we'd invoke that vfunc when anything was painted.

The repaint callbacks are not tied to repaint, thus a bit misleading.
What the functionality in the pre/post-paint callbacks here cares about
is when actually painting; the non-painting related parts has already
moved out to a *-update signal.
This also renames the related MetaWindowActorClass vfuncs, to align with
naming convention of the signals that it listens to.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Instead of going via MetaCompositor to know about when we updated
(confusingly named post-paint), use the new stage signal directly.
Note that this doesn't change the time frame callbacks are dispatched;
it's still not tied to actual painting even though it seemed so before
given the function names.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
We'd emit multiple "presented" signals per frame, one for "sync" and one
for "completion". Only the latter were ever used, and removing the
differentiation eases the avoidance of cogl onscreen framebuffer frame
callback details leaking into clutter.

The vfunc was not tied to "paint", but was used by MetaWindowActorX11
as part of the "update" mechanisms. In order to make that more clear,
special case it in MetaWindowActorX11 by type checking the surface
actor, handling the case without MetaSurfacActor abstraction.

The synchronization must happen no matter the painting, as it in itself
might result in reported damage, making the stage actually painted. Thus
move it out of the "pre-paint" handler, to something explicitly not tied
to the painting itself - ClutterStage::before-update.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Instead of the 'pre-paint' signal on MetaCompositor, rely directly on
the 'before-update' signal on the stage. A reason for this is that the
callback should not only invoked in connection to painting, but updating
in general. Currently the 'pre-paint' signal is emitted no matter
whether there were any painting or not, but that's both misleading and
will go away.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The MetaLater functionality needs to make sure an update is scheduled so
that it can run its callbacks etc. This used a ClutterTimeline (which is

single master clock, so just schedule updates directly instead, with the
newly exposed API.

41130b08eb added a fix for culling subsurfaces with geometry scale.
Unfortunately it only did so for the opaque regions, not for clip and
unobscured regions, as the effect was hidden by bug that was only
fixed by 3187fe8ebc.
Apply the same fix to clip and unobscured regions and use the chance
to move most of the slightly hackish geometry scale related code
into a single place.
We need to scale slightly differently in the two cases, indicated by
the new `ScalePerspectiveType` enum, as the scale is dependent on the
perspective - once from outside, once from inside of the scaled actor.

We were setting the pipeline colour to all white (1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
and so the default layer combine function multiplied each pixel
(R, G, B, A) by all ones. Obviously multiplying by one four times per
pixel is a waste of effort so we remove the colour setting *and* set
the layer combine function to a trivial shader that will ignore whatever
the current pipeline colour is set to. So now we do **zero** multiplies
per pixel.
On an i7-7700 at UHD 3840x2160 this results in 5% faster render times
and 10% lower power usage (says intel_gpu_top). The benefit is probably
much higher for virtual machines though, as they're no longer being
asked to do CPU-based math on every pixel of a window.

In commit 4c1fde9d MetaCullable related code was moved out of

As explained in the last commits, we'll let gnome-shell take care of

As explained in the last commit, gnome-shell needs to be able to thaw
window actor updates during its size-change effect is active.

The size-change animation in gnome-shell needs to sync the window actors
geometry during the animation, it currently does this by notifying the
compositor that the animation was finished before it actually is.
This causes a few bugs in Mutter though, since it will now emit the
"effects-completed" signal on the window actor even though they aren't
completed.
To fix that, we need to decouple freezing and thawing of actor updates
from window effects and allow gnome-shell to thaw actor updates before
it notifies Mutter that the effect is completed.
The first step for this is allowing to sync the actor geometry while an
effect is active, this should be redundant since effects which actually
need to inhibit those updates will freeze the actor anyway. Also a
geometry change happening while another effect is active will kill the
old effect anyway because MetaPluginManager kills all the active window
effects before starting a new one; so the new size-change effect for any
geometry change is going to kill the current effect.

The current code assumes that the actor will always have the same
size and position of the background texture, but part of the implicit
contract of being a ClutterContent is being able to render itself
at any given actor, at any given size.
For example, if the current code is given an actor with 0x0+100+100
as geometry, and no clipped region, it'll render not the whole
background, but the 0x0+100+100 rectangle of the background. In
practice, the actor geometry acts like a "clip mask" over the
background texture, due to the assumption that the actor will
always have the same size of the monitor.
Make the calculation of the texture slices relative to the actor
box.

again to get the stage. To get rid of the extra singleton fetching, just
pass the backend the MetaCompositor constructors, and fetch the stage
directly from the backend everytime it's needed.
This also makes it available earlier than before, as we didn't set our
instance private stage pointer until the manage() call.

Move Wayland support (i.e. the MetaWaylandCompositor object) made to be
part of the backend. This is due to the fact that it is needed by the
backend initialization, e.g. the Wayland EGLDisplay server support.
The backend is changed to be more involved in Wayland and clutter
initialization, so that the parts needed for clutter initialization
happens before clutter itself initialization happens, and the rest
happens after. This simplifies the setup a bit, as clutter and Wayland
init now happens as part of the backend initialization.
