MetaCompositor is the place in mutter that manages the higher level
state of compositing, such as handling what happens before and after
paint. In order for other units that depend on having a compositor
instance active, but should be initialized before the X11 implementation
of MetaCompositor registers as a X11 compositing manager, split the
initialization of compositing into two steps:
1) Instantiate the object - only construct the instance, making it
possible for users to start listening to signals etc
2) Manage - this e.g. establishes the compositor as the X11 compositing
manager and similar things.
This will enable us to put compositing dependent scattered global
variables into a MetaCompositor owned object.
For now, compositor management is internally done by calling a new
`meta_compositor_do_manage()`, as right now we can't change the API of
`meta_compositor_manage()` as it is public. For the next version, manual
management of compositing will removed from the public API, and only
managed internally.

This is so that cogl-trace.h can start using things from cogl-macros.h,
and so that it doesn't leak cogl-config.h into the world, while exposing
it to e.g. gnome-shell so that it can make use of it as well. There is
no practical reason why we shouldn't just include cogl-trace.h via
cogl.h as we do with everything else.

MetaGravity is an enum, where the values match the X11 macros used for
gravity, with the exception that `ForgetGravity` was renamed
`META_GRAVITY_NONE` to have less of a obscure name.
The motivation for this is to rely less on libX11 data types and macros
in generic code.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/705
This is made a signal, so the upper layers (read: gnome-shell) may
decide what services to spawn. The signal argument contains a task
that will resume MetaX11Display startup after it is returned upon.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/945
We artificially made Xwayland initialization synchronous, as we used
to rely on MetaX11Display and other bits during meta_display_open().
With support for Xwayland on demand and --no-x11, this is certainly
not the case.
So drop the main loop surrounding Xwayland initialization, and turn
it into an async operation called from meta_display_init_x11(). This
function is turned then into the high-level entry point that will
get you from no X server to having a MetaX11Display.
The role of meta_init() in Xwayland initialization is thus reduced
to setting up the sockets. Notably no processes are spawned from here,
deferring that till there is a MetaDisplay to poke.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/944
This ATM completes the task right away, but we will want to do
further things here that are asynchronous in nature, so prepare
for this operation being async.
Since the X11 backend doesn't really need this, make it go on
the fast lane and open the MetaX11Display right away, the case
of mandatory Xwayland on a wayland session is now handled
separately.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/944
This used to be set on meta_compositor_manage(), but only if there is a
MetaX11Display. Given meta_display_init_x11() is Wayland only, and we can
always assume compositing to be enabled, just have it invariably set after
the X server is up.

The check-alive feature is there for the user to be able to terminate
frozen applications more easily. However, sometimes applications are
implemented in a way where they fail to be reply to ping requests in a
timely manner, resulting in that, to the compositor, they are
indistinguishable from clients that have frozen indefinitely.
When using an application that has these issues, the GUI showed in
response to the failure to respond to ping requests can become annoying,
as it disrupts the visual presentation of the application.
To allow users to work-around these issues, add a setting allowing them
to configure the timeout waited until an application is considered
frozen, or disabling the check completely.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/1080
If a window already is being pinged, it doesn't make sense to send more
pings to the window, instead we should just wait for that answer or
timeout until we send a new one.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/891
Using a timestamp twice in a row (e.g. when activating two windows in
response to the same event or due to other bugs) will break the window
detection and show a close dialog on the wrong window. This is a grave
error that should never happen, so check every timestamp before sending
the ping for uniqueness and if the timestamp was already used and its
ping is still pending, log a warning message and don't send the ping.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/891
Instead of open coding the X11 focus management in display.c, expose
it as a single function with similar arguments to its MetaDisplay
counterpart. This just means less X11 specifics in display.c.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/751
We have a "setup" phase, used internally to initialize early the x11
side of things like the stack tracker, and an "opened" phase where
other upper parts may hook up to. This latter phase is delayed during
initialization so the upper parts have a change to connect to on
plugin creation.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/771
The end goal is to have all clutter backend code in src/backends. Input
is the larger chunk of it, which is now part of our specific
MutterClutterBackendX11, this extends to device manager, input devices,
tools and keymap.
This was supposed to be nice and incremental, but there's no sane way
to cut this through. As a result of the refactor, a number of private
Clutter functions are now exported for external backends to be possible.

A base type shouldn't know about sub types, so let MetaDisplay make
the correct choice of what type of MetaCompositor it should create. No
other semantical changes introduced.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/727
Some meta_later operations may happen across XWayland being shutdown,
that trigger MetaStackTracker queries for X11 XIDs. This crashes as
the MetaX11Display is already NULL.
Return a NULL window in that case, as in "unknown stack ID".
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/728
The Xwayland manager now has 4 distinct phases:
- Init and shutdown (Happening together with the compositor itself)
- Start and stop
In these last 2 phases, handle orderly initialization and shutdown
of Xwayland. On initialization We will simply find out what is a
proper display name, and set up the envvar and socket so that clients
think there is a X server.
Whenever we detect data on this socket, we enter the start phase
that will launch Xwayland, and plunge the socket directly to it.
In this phase we now also set up the MetaX11Display.
The stop phase is pretty much the opposite, we will shutdown the
MetaX11Display and all related data, terminate the Xwayland
process, and restore the listening sockets. This phase happens
on a timeout whenever the last known X11 MetaWindow is gone. If no
new X clients come back in this timeout, the X server will be
eventually terminated.
The shutdown phase happens on compositor shutdown and is completely
uninteresting. Some bits there moved into the stop phase as might
happen over and over.
This is all controlled by META_DISPLAY_POLICY_ON_DEMAND and
the "autostart-xwayland" experimental setting.

What "restart" means is somewhat different between x11 and wayland
sessions. A X11 compositor may restart itself, thus having to manage
again all the client windows that were running. A wayland compositor
cannot restart itself, but might restart X11, in which case there's
possibly a number of wayland clients, plus some x11 app that is
being started.
For the latter case, the assert will break, so just make it
conditional. Also rename the function so it's more clear that it
only affects X11 windows.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/709
Using the master device, as we did, won't yield the expected result when
looking up the device node (it comes NULL as this is a virtual device).
Use the slave device, as the g-s-d machinery essentially expects.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/678
The device ID is kind of pointless on Wayland, so it might be better to
stick to something that works for both backends. Passing the device here
allows the higher layers to pick.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/676
As per commit 7718e67f, destroying the compositor causes destroying window
actors and this leads to stack changes, but at this point the stack was already
disposed and cleared.
So, clear the stack when any component that could use it (compositor, and X11)
has already been destroyed.
As consequence, also the stamps should be destroyed at later point.

We're currently emitting the 'grab-op-end' signal when the grab prerequisites
are met, but when display->grab_op is still set to a not-NONE value and thus
meta_display_get_grab_op() would return that in the signal callback.
And more importantly when this is emitted, devices are still grabbed.
Instead, emit this signal as soon as we've unset all the grab properties and
released the devices.

In all places (including src/wayland) we tap into meta_x11_display* focus
API, which then calls meta_display* API. This relation is backwards, so
rework input focus management so it's the other way around.
We now have high-level meta_display_(un)set_input_focus functions, which
perform the backend-independent maintenance, and calls into the X11
functions where relevant. These functions are what callers should use.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/420
If the check happens on --nested (X11 backend) while there is no X11
display we would get a crash. Since the barriers are non-effective on
nested, just take it out into a separate condition.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/420
This explicit ungrab is made to ensure the other X11 display connection
is able to start an active grab immediately on the device without receiving
AlreadyGrabbed.
This is just relevant if there's two X11 display connections to transfer
grabs across, which may just happen on X11 windowing.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/420
The check for the focus xwindow is called, but not used. Fix that by
renaming the variable to reflect better what it does and actually using
the return value of the check.
This was the original intention of the author in commit
05899596d1 and got broken in commit
8e7e1eeef5.

This is a simple clipboard manager implementation on top of MetaSelection.
It will inspect the clipboard content for UTF-8 text and image data whenever
any other selection source claims ownership, and claim it for itself
whenever the clipboard goes unowned.
The stored text has a maximum size of 4MB and images 200MB, to prevent the
compositor from allocating indefinite amounts of memory.
This is not quite a X11 clipboard manager, but also works there.
