The "single pixel buffer" Wayland protocol extension provides a way for
clients to create 1x1 buffers with a single color, specified by
providing the color channels (red, green and blue) as well as the
alpha channel as a 32 bit unsigned integer.
For now, this is turned into a 1x1 texture. Future potential
improvements is to hook things up to the scanout candidate logic and
turn it into a scanout capable DMA buffer.

When taking the scanout path we still want to clear the
redraw-clip from the stage-view in order to ensure we skip
frames in `handle_frame_clock_frame()` if no new redraw-clip
was recorded.
This was not done previously as the accumulated redraw-clip was
needed for the next repaint, likely under the assumption that
scheduling a scanout repeatedly would be computationally cost-free.
This assumption does not hold in a VRR world.
In order to archive both, an accumulated redraw-clip for the next
paint and frame-skipping during scanout, introduce new API to defer
and accumulate redraw-clips until the next repaint.

To Wayland clients, it doesn't matter how we configure our onscreen
buffers, since they don't necessarily have the same bandwidth issues
related to mode setting, whichis the primary reason why we disable
modifiers using the udev rule, so simply check whether importing with
modifiers will work at all and advertise modifiers if so is the case.
This might help avoid issues using legacy non-modifiers path in drivers.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2546>
We disable modifiers for two reasons: an udev rule saying so, or the
lack of a working drmModeAddFB2(). However, to the users, this is not
granular enough. While the current user, whether to enable modifiers in
MetaRendererNative, doesn't need more granularity, we want to send
modifiers to Wayland clients even if the onscreen framebuffers should
still be allocated without modifiers.
Prepare for differentiating between how Wayland DMA buffers work and how
onscreen buffer allocation work by separating the relevant device flags.

This uses MetaCompositorViewNative to find a candidate surface for
scanout and to keep track of it separately for each view, effectively
allowing each CRTC to use a different buffer for direct scanout.
There are three parts for potentially assigning a buffer for direct
scanout at the compositor level:
1. Finding a candidate surface actor on the view (if any)
2. Attempting to assign the candidate's buffer for direct scanout
3. Updating references relating to the scanout candidate as needed
The three parts were moved in their entirety from being handled by the
MetaCompositorNative to being handled by the MetaCompositorViewNative.
As part of this transition, the logic was also slightly refactored so
that each of the three parts is handled by its own helper function.
This allowed to avoid the use of "goto" statements and hopefully make
the logic easier to read and follow.
The first part mentioned above was changed in this commit to make use
of the new meta_compositor_view_get_top_window_actor () API to get the
top window actor in the view instead of the top window actor on all
views.
The second part and third parts mentioned above weren't changed other
than being done in the context of a view instead of globally.

All of the checks this function performed internally were already
done before calling it, making it a simple wrapper function without a
meaningful purpose.
Removing this function also reduces the chance of additional checks
being added to the MetaSurfaceActor after it is already chosen as a
scanout candidate.

This class is meant to hold logic specific to the native backend
in the context of a MetaCompositorView.
Its addition requires making MetaCompositorView inheritable, and an
addition of a virtual function which allows each compositor to create
its own MetaCompositorView instance.
In the case of the MetaCompositorNative, a MetaCompositorViewNative
is created. In all other cases, a MetaCompositorView is created.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2526>
First, add logic in MetaCompositorView to find topmost visible
MetaWindowActor on its view, and expose it through a new API.
Then, queue an update to find the top MetaWindowActor of each
MetaCompositorView in the following cases:
1. The MetaCompositor is in its initial state.
2. The window stack order has changed.
3. A window has changed its visibility.
4. A "stage-views-changed" signal was emitted for a MetaWindowActor.
Finally, perform the queued update in meta_compositor_before_paint (),
and assert that an update isn't queued during painting. This ensures
that the top window actor in the MetaCompositorView remains up-to-date
and available to child classes of MetaCompositor throughout the entire
paint stage.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2526>
The idea is that the state of the MetaCompositorView shall be
up-to-date only in specific scenarios, thus allowing operations
performed on it to be queued and aggregated to be handled in the
right time, and only if they are still necessary.
For example, in a following commit, the top window actor in each
view will be planned (if needed) only once before painting a frame,
rendering the top window actor in the MetaCompositorView potentially
stale in all other times.
Similarly, if a MetaCompositorView is destroyed before the beginning
of the frame, a queued operation to update its top window actor can be
discarded.
As an interface segragation measure, and as part of an attempt to
avoid the use of g_return_if_fail () to check the validity of the
MetaCompositorView's state in multiple places (which is still prone to
human error), the interfaces through which a MetaCompositorView is
made available would only ones where it's state is gurenteed to be
up-to-date.
Specifically, this commit gurentees that the state of the
MetaCompositorView would be up-to-date during the before_paint () and
after_paint () vfuncs exposed to child classes of the MetaCompositor.
The frame_in_progress variable will be used in a following commit to
guarantee that the MetaCompositorView's state is not invalidated during
this time.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2526>
MetaCompositorView is a class which contains compositor logic
specific to ClutterStageViews.
Each MetaCompositorView is "attached" to a ClutterStageView as an
opaque pointer using g_object_set_qdata_full (), and is freed when
the ClutterStageView is destroyed. This ensures that the lifetime of
the MetaCompositorView can't extend beyond the lifetime of its
ClutterStageView.
In a following commit, MetaCompositorView will be expanded to allow
keeping track of the top MetaWindowActor located on each
ClutterStageView.

This can happen with the native backend if the previous frame clock
dispatch didn't result in any KMS update, e.g. because it was triggered
by an input event, but the HW cursor didn't need updating on the stage
view. (This is likely to happen on some out of multiple stage views,
but might be possible even with a single stage view if the cursor isn't
visible)
We would previously delay next_presentation_time_us by one refresh
interval in this case, which could result in spuriously leaving one
refresh cycle unused.

Use the dark variant for decorations if the color-scheme preference
indicates that it's preferred, and the client didn't explicitly
pick a variant via the _GTK_THEME_VARIANT hint.

Although mipmapping is still slower than not mipmapping, commit 16fa2100
simplified N synchronous draw calls per texture tower into just one. So
it's more efficient now, and four years have passed since the throttling
was introduced so people also have better hardware as well as mutter being
generally faster than it used to be. So I am happy to effectively revert
commit c9c32835.
This means antialiasing will remain consistent rather than popping in and
out of existence.

Often, most of the output consists of a long list of exposed modes for
each monitor. If --short is passed, only pass modes that has properties.
In practice, this means "preferred" modes, "current" modes, and
similarly special cases, which significantly reduces noise.

Somewhat long overdue... We've been supporting more than a single
pointer for quite a long time now, let's make sure things don't break if
two pointer devices enter the same ClutterActor: Count the number of
pointers an actor has instead of using a simple boolean value.

In certain edge cases it's currently possible that an actor never
gets a valid allocation and paint volume.
One such case is adding an unmapped, hidden child to an unmapped
cloned parent and then showing the child. This happens currently
e.g. if a Wayland subsurface is added to a already mapped window
while the user is in the overview.
Ensure relayouts in two more such cases.

This one does proper error reporting. Via Javascript, barriers are
constructed directly via GObject construction, which currently can't
handle error reporting, but when calling from C we can. However, if we
initialize using GInitable, and use that in our constructor method, once
gjs gains support for construction using GInitable, including the error
reporting, we'll automatically get proper error reporting to Javascript.

In the past, barries were added to the window management X11 display
instance window table, and then special cased when iterating over the
list.
Since then, barriers, which are really part of the backend, has stopped
being added to the window hash table, instead being managed by the
backend. Lets clean up the left-over special casing that is no longer
needed.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2442>
Prior to this commit, barriers were created with a MetaDisplay pointer,
despite being entities related and owned by the backend. In the X11
case, it was also not hooked up to the backend X11 connection, but the
clutter one, meaning for example that the logic was active (but dormant)
also for the Xwayland connection.
Fix this by moving X11 barrier management and event processing fully to
the backend. Also replace passing a display pointer with passing a
backend pointer. Keep the display pointer around for a release, but mark
it as deprecated.
