When the output device has hotplug_mode_update (e.g. the qxl driver used in
vms), the displays can be dynamically resized, so the current display
configuration does not often match a stored configuration. When a new
monitor is added, make_default_config() tries to create a new display
configuration by choosing a stored configuration with N-1 monitors, and then
adding a new monitor to the end of the layout. Because the stored config
doesn't match the current outputs, apply_configuration() will routinely
fail, leaving the additional display unconfigured. In this case, it's more
useful to just fall back to creating a new default configuration from
scratch so that all outputs get configured to their preferred mode.
Move logic for creating different types of configurations into separate
functions. This keeps things a bit cleaner and allows us to add alternate
configuration types more easily.
When a laptop's lid is closed we try to build and apply a temporary
configuration that disables the laptop's display if we have other
outputs.
This isn't enough though, we must also check if at least one of these
other outputs is enabled otherwise we'll try to resize the screen to
0x0 which (rightfully) hits an assertion.

It turns out that this was wrong because MetaWindow->monitor points to
the old monitor infos and they are needed to position windows in the
new configuration which happens in a monitors-changed handler.
This reverts commit e1704acda4.
The code in MetaMonitorConfig was really complex and was trying to do
way too much, using multiple different variables to determine where
things were stored, and trying to do fancy tricks to transfer
ownership.
Add a refcounting system to help simplify this, and clean up the logic.
Simply along the way, this fixes multiple bugs in the monitor config
logic, most notably bug #734889, which was my original goal to fix.
The X server sends several RRScreenChangeNotify events in a burst when
something happens which, currently, causes us to rebuild our view of
the world as many times and notify the upper layers about it which
causes a lot of bogus repeated work like rebuilding background actors.
We can avoid this extra work by looking at the timestamp in the
XRRScreenResources struct which is updated when an X client (including
us!) last changed something and comparing it with the previous
timestamp.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738630
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738630
In randr events, configTimestamp can be considered the hotplug time,
i.e. whenever the server notices hardware changes, this value will be
updated.
Having that in mind, we can re-work the logic to make it clearer.
There are no semantic changes.
The code here was a bit messy with the addition of
hotplug_mode_update, and the comments were a bit confusing and
inaccurate. Clean it up and comment it a bit better to make the flow and
intention more clear.
We need to tell clutter's evdev backend about the desktop's key repeat
settings so that our own key bindings event processing and
gnome-shell's chrome widgets get their fake key events for continuous
key press as they expect.
Note that the wayland frontend filters out these events and thus
wayland clients do not see them as specced.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728055
The X server applies a default keymap to hotplugged keyboard
devices. To enforce our current settings we must re-upload the keymap
when a new keyboard shows up.
Note that setting the VCK keymap causes the server to propagate it
to all slave keyboard devices.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737673
We overrode the property for PowerSaveMode, which meant that gdbus's
auto-generated PropertiesChanged code wasn't being run.
This really confused gnome-rr and gnome-settings-daemon's power plugin
about the current DPMS state of the display, since they used their
cached PowerSaveMode properties, and never saw a PropertiesChanged being
emitted.
If a display was on, they set it to off, and then set it back on, the
setting back on would never fire, since they thought the display was
already off.
To fix this, remove our custom property override and just respond to
notifications on the object.
Namely, this fixes the DPMS management when receiving notifications so
that it now properly times out.
Use the new DRM capabilities to figure out the correct cursor size, and
make sure that matches instead of hardcoding 64x64. This fixes incorrect
rendering on some newer AMD cards that support 256x256 cursors.
Based heavily on a patch by:
Alvaro Fernando García <alvarofernandogarcia@gmail.com>
We'll need this in the wayland frontend to send a modifiers event to
clients.
Note that on X11 this isn't needed because key events include the
group index encoded in modifier state. If we ever want to make the
wayland frontend work with the X11 backend we'll handle it then.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736433
Setting the scaling factor immediately after calling clutter_init()
avoids creating the stage at one size, then later resizing it to
a different size.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736279
In the case of a nested Wayland compositor inside an X session,
Clutter is managing the toplevel window size, so don't call
XResizeWindow on it - this will confuse Clutter and get the size
and the hints out of sync on the toplevel window.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736279
If we add device 2, then add device 254, then remove device 254, then
the max device ID will be 253. Scan through all the devices again on
removal to calculate a new max device ID.
Rather than have the DBus code control this, move this into
MetaBackend. This also lets us destroy idle monitors when appropriate,
rather than leaking them forever.
We indeed call this function if we're not an X11 compositor, but in this
case we're simply calling it to say that we have no cursor overlay. Make
sure not to assert fail in this case.
RandR's QueryOutputProperty request makes the incredible decision of
throwing a BadName if you pass a property that doesn't exist, which
means that trying to check if a property exists is a royal pain when
using Xlib.
XCB's interface is much more friendly about errors and not having global
state and things like that, so use that instead to query our backlight
property.
If the property doesn't exist, a BadName error will be generated. This
is a terrible API, but it's what we're stuck with. Use
RRGetOutputProperty instead.
We've long used a switch statement on the grab operation to determine
where events should go. The issue with MetaGrabOp is that it's a mixture
of a few different things, including event routing, state management,
and the behavior to choose during operations.
This leads to poorly defined event routing and hard-to-follow logic,
since it's sometimes unclear what should point where, and our utility
methods for determining grab operations apart can be poorly named.
To fix this, establish the concept of a "event route", which describes
where events should be routed to.
Popups could not set the cursor image, because the cursor tracker would
ignore window cursors if we had a popup active. The correct condition to
check for is already in should_block_wayland. Rename this to the more
sensible name windows_are_interactable, and use it in the cursor tracker.
meta_backend_get_keymap is supposed to return a static keymap, not a new
one every time. Cache it internally. We don't update it when the keymap
changes on the server, but we'll do this soon.
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,
xkbcommon-x11 and a libX11 new enough to have xcb support.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734301
Sometimes we can get a host event without having the display up and
running yet. Just don't pass it to the compositor in that case, since it
won't be possible for it to have any event that matters.
This reverts commit 3b85e4b2b9.
This breaks touch support; reverting would break wayland
(is what this patch tried to fix; we should find a better solution
that works on both).
When a touch sequence is passively grabbed and later rejected, events
will be replayed on the next client in propagation order, although those
events (either transformed to pointer events or not) will contain the
original timestamps, this will make grabs fail with InvalidTime if triggered
from the replayed ButtonPress/TouchBegin handler.
In order to work around this, store the most recent event time (presumably
gotten from the XI_TouchEnd caused by the passive grab being rejected), and
use that time on the events being replayed afterwards and grabs, so we don't
possibly fail with InvalidTime if those events result in a compositor grab.
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 makes Alt+F7 / Alt+F8 work respectively under X11 nested mode.
For the native backend implementation, we'll need a special Clutter
function, so don't implement that for now.
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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=724604
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.
We expect that meta_screen_set_cursor while grabbed will properly
set the cursor on the root window. Make sure this works by simply
always using the root cursor when we have an active grab.
We can only apply a configuration if its outputs match the connected
ones, so discard the current configuration if the set of output changes
(for example for hotplug), otherwise we will crash trying to apply
the bogus previous configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=725637
Advertise the scale factor on the output and transform pointer and damage
events as well as input and opaque regions for clients
that scale up by themselves i.e use set_buffer_scale.
We do not scale any 'legacy' apps yet.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728902
When we click on a window with a passive grab, then the event_x
and event_y will be relative to that window, instead of relative to
the stage, which means that picking will be wrong.
Forcibly using root_x / root_y breaks nested mode. Nested mode is
a testing mode that should be replaced by a DRI3-enabled Xephyr,
though. It's getting too hairy to support properly.
Now that we have a global MetaScreen, we can simply have a global
MetaCursorTracker as well. Keep the get_for_screen() API around for
compatibility, though.
A gulong is not enough to get 64 bits in all arches, so we must
cast it, or we can corrupt the stack.
This was downstream bug bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1002055

Apparently some connector technologies don't distinguish between
on and off, and there might be valid use cases for running without
any connected monitor.
In that case, just avoid any configuration at all.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709009
Right now this just has all of the files in one directory. We'll
be introducing more structure to this in the future, and build
a proper backend system.
