MetaGrabOp is painful and tedious to work with, because it's a
sequential series of values, meaning we have to use a giant unreadable
switch statement to figure out some basic things about the value.
To solve this, modify the encoding for MetaGrabOp and for the specific
window grab operations so that they're a set of bitflags that we can
easily check.
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.
It turns out that Clutter doesn't actually filter NumLock / ScrollLock /
CapsLock from button events due to its terrible event translation code.
Check only the grab mods to check if it's unmodified.
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.
Instead of returning a value based on whether or not we handled it, we
have this logic: either we have taken a grab on the window, in which
case we have a grab op and have handled it ourselves, or we did not take
a grab and *need* to replay the event to the window.
Handle this in events.c by checking the grab operation in the same way
that we check the other grab ops.
This is an accidental regression from 7a109a1. If we mark the event as
handled, then we *need* to set grab_op, or do some other sort of
behavior, since we have a grab.
Now that we always use XKB, it's very unlikely that we'll get a
MappingNotifier without a subsequence XkbKeymapNotify event. Just
do all the work always.
This will also help us considerably for the future when we'll be
putting the keymap event in the backend.
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.
Mutter depends on the X11 windowing backend of Clutter, unless it's used
as a Wayland display server.
This allows Mutter to run without breaking in case Clutter changes the
order with which windowing backends are selected, like it was the case
for bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734587
The order of selection of the Clutter backends has not been made public,
so it cannot be relied upon since the introduction of the multiple
backends support; since Mutter requires the X11 backend functionality,
it should select the X11 windowing system, in the same way it selects
the EGL backend when compiled and run as a Wayland display server.
At this point there shouldn't be any system capable of running mutter
that doesn't have it and we're introducing functionality like setting
the keymap that has an hard requirement on it.

This way the xserver never paints the frame background, even if
the client window is destroyed. This allows us to have clean
destroy window animation.
There is no problem with interactive resizing because applications
are using the XSync protocol, so we're not painting unless the
client has redrawn.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734054
MetaGestureTracker has been separating the "did I handle an event?" and the
"should the event be filtered out?" questions, merge this and make
handle_event() reply to "should the event be only handled by me?".
If a sequence wasn't accepted yet by the gesture tracker, the event will
go through (eg. not handled exclusively by the gesture tracker) and it'll
still be processed by Clutter, triggering gesture actions, and maybe
changing the sequence into other state.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733631
On X11 this works because only emulated pointer events are listened for. On
wayland, the single touch behavior must be enforced in touch events, ignoring
every other sequence.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733631
This function tells the obvious on X11, and implements a similar mechanism
on wayland to determine the "pointer emulating" sequence, or one to stick
with when implementing single-touch behavior.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733631
Due to the way the MetaGestureTracker processes every touch event, this
will tell as closely to Clutter as possible the current number of touches
happening on the stage.
Even though, this is subject to windowing behavior, on X11, rejected touches
will be soon followed by a XI_TouchEnd event, so the compositor will stop
seeing touch sequences that are still operating on clients. On wayland, touch
sequences are processed by the compositor during all their lifetime, so these
will stay on the MetaGestureTracker with META_SEQUENCE_PENDING_END state, yet
still tracked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733631
On wayland, touches are initially both handled by the compositor and sent
to clients, proceeding to cancellation on clients only after the compositor
claims the sequence for itself. Implement the cancellation detail through
MetaGestureTracker::state-changed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733631
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).
The current GNOME Shell Alt-F2 restart looks very messy and also
provides no indication to the user what is going on. We need to
restart the compositor to switch in and out of stereo mode, so
add a framework for doing this more cleanly:
Additions:
meta_restart(): restarts the compositor with a message
MetaDisplay::show-restart-message: signal the embedding
shell to show a message
MetaDisplay::restart: signal the embedding shell to restart
itself.
meta_is_restart(): indicates whether the current instance is a
restart so we can suppress login animations.
A helper program meta-restart-helper holds the composite overlay
window up during the restart to avoid visual artifacts.

When a Wayland window acks our arrangement and we don't really have
anything to modify, we'll pass a sole flag of META_IS_WAYLAND_RESIZE
to meta_window_move_resize_internal using a garbage rect. The existing
code to calculate the new rectangle couldn't really handle this case,
and so the garbage rectangle accidentally got stored. Revamp the flag
checks to be more clear about it.
This fixes the weird positioning issues that sometimes appear when
resizing weston-terminal among others.
We really can't do this unless the backend X server is the same as the
frontend X server, as we pass a frontend XID to the backend, which is
only the case when we're not a Wayland compositor.
This code was supposed to refresh our default icons when the theme
changed, but it actually was a no-op, since the default icons are cached
in a static variable in MetaUI.
I'm not sure the fact that the fallback icons don't update when the
theme changes is an important enough use case to keep working, but I'm
keeping the skeleton function there in case somebody wants to actually
fix it properly.
Now that we have two connections to the X server, the idea of a
ref-counted server grab that might be held across extended portions
of code is very dangerous since we might try to use the backend
connection while the frontend connection is grabbed.
Replace the only usage (which was local) with direct
XGrabServer/XUngrabServer usage and remove the meta_display_grab()
API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733068
There's no obvious reason for grabbing the X server when unmanaging
a screen - the only race conditions a server grab solves are those
related to querying and then acting on the results of the query.
Our shutdown sequence is correctly ordered according to the ICCCM -
we first unselect on the root window, and then we destroy the
window owning WM_S<n> so removing the grab should not cause any
problems when we are being replaced with another window manager.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733068
The only case we have is the case where the two X11 connections are the
same. When on Wayland, the XSync is costly and expensive, and we should
minimize it.
Commit 8100cefd4c fixed a crash during workspace initialization by
tweaking the startup sequence; as a result, the plugin (like gnome-shell)
is now started before workspaces are fully initialized, which breaks
some reasonable assumptions (like always having an active workspace).
This is particularly problematic considering that the code making those
assumptions is not necessarily our own (extensions!), so return to
fully initialize workspaces before the compositor again.
At the same time, make sure to only call meta_workspace_activate()
once during initialization to avoid reintroducing the crash.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732695
This makes sure that we see them for Wayland clients as well, and don't
time out and crash when we're accessing an invalid window / surface.
