We cleaned up an unused monitor config list, but what we should do is
clear up the logical monitor config list. This commit does that, as
well as removes the unused monitor config list.
We have not enough control over the sources of the refresh rate
float variable to make == comparisons reliable, add some room
when comparing these.

The reverted commit seems to cause
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=787240 for some reason. Lets
be safe and revert it for now, as the code freeze is just around the
corner.
This partly (it doesn't reintroduce a whitespace issue) reverts commit
dbc63430d8.
The foreach CRTC monitor mode helper incorrectly iterated over outputs
without CRTC when non-tiled modes were set on tiled monitors. This was
not expected by callers, so fix the helper to only iterate over active
outputs (that has or should have a CRTC).
The test cases uses the incorrect behaviour of the foreach CRTC helper
to check that the disabled outputs mode are set to NULL, so add a
foreach output helper and change the tests to use that instead.

When headless, we don't have any logical monitors to derive a screen
size from, but we can't set it to empty as that will cause issues with
the clutter stage, UI widget layout and other things. To avoid such
issues, just fall back to a 640 x 480 screen size when headless.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730551
Due to rounding issues, we can't assume a floating point calculation
will end up on an integer, even if we got the factor from the reverse
calculation. Thus, to avoid casting away values like N.999... to N,
when they should really be N+1, round the resulting floating point
calculation before casting it to int.
This fixes an issue where using the scale ~1.739 on a 1920x1080 mode
resulted in error when setting the mode, as the calculated size of the
framebuffer was only 1919x1080.

When a screen cast session is stand-alone, i.e. not created given a

As of commit 5f5ef3de2cdc816dab82cb7eb5d7171bee0ad2c5 in pipewire the
stream creator can find out the node ID of the stream it created.
So instead of using a special purpose entry to the info property box to
let the application discover stream by monitoring added nodes searching
for the given special purpose entry, just pass the node directly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784199
When the PipeWire context or stream ends up in an error state, signal
that the source has closed. This then triggers the stream and finally

This commit adds basic screen casting and remote desktoping
functionalty. This works by exposing two D-Bus API services:
org.gnome.Mutter.ScreenCast and org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop.
The remote desktop API is used to create remote desktop sessions. For
each session, a D-Bus object is created, and an application can manage
the session by sending messages to the session object. A remote desktop
session the user to emit input events using the D-Bus methods on the
session object. To get framebuffer content, the application should
create an associated screen cast session.
The screen cast API is used to create screen cast sessions. One can so
far either create stand-alone screen cast sessions, or a screen cast
session associated with a remote desktop session. A remote desktop
associated screen cast session is managed by the remote desktop session.
So far only remote desktop managed screen cast sessions are implemented.
Each screen cast session may have one or more streams. A screen cast
stream is a stream of buffers of some part of the compositor content.
So far API exists for creating streams of monitors and windows, but
only monitor streams are implemented.
When a screen cast session is started, the one PipeWire stream is
created for each screen cast stream created for the session. When this
has happened, a PipeWireStreamAdded signal is emitted on the stream
object, passing a unique identifier. The application may use this
identifier to find the associated stream being advertised by the
PipeWire daemon.
The remote desktop and screen cast functionality must be explicitly be
enabled at ./configure time by passing --enable-remote-desktop to
./configure. Doing this will build both screen cast and remote desktop
support.
To actually enable the screen casting and remote desktop, the user must
enable the experimental feature. See
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features.

When monitors changed, previous monitor instances are defunct, and any
reference holder should drop its reference. Sometimes they will want to
continue having a reference to the same monitor, so add this function
to make it possible to find it.
Currently the output and crtc references are invalid, as they are not
yet reference counted, so this can only look at cached fields.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784199
Trying to unilaterally require eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT causes problems in
scenarios where this method is not available. Besides, this should only be
required on Wayland, so we can stop requiring it always and simply let the
eglGetPlatformDisplay() function error accordingly when needed.

The HW cursor plane can't do any transformations, and as we still don't
pre-transform any buffer before uploading to the cursor plane, we must
disable the HW cursor when a logical monitor is transformed.
This worked previously because the transform of a MetaCrtc did not
correspond to the transform of a CRTC, but the transform of the logical
monitor the CRTC was assigned to.

When another D-Bus call that just tries to verify a configuration is

Add API to get the layout group (layout index) currently active. In the
native backend this is done by fetching the state directly from the

Don't wait for clutter to initialize for connecting to X11; do it when

When opening a laptop lid, one will likely want to restore the
configuration one had prior to closing it, so when ensuring monitor
configuration, first try to see if the previously set configuration is
both complete (all connected monitors are configured) and applicable
(it is a valid configuration) and only try to generate a new from
scratch if that failed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In order to go back in monitor configurations, save them to a history.
The history is implemented as a max 3 element long queue, where newly
set configurations are pushed to the head, and old are popped from the
tail.
The difference between using a single previous config reference and a
queue is that we can now remember the configuration used prior to a
D-Bus triggered configuration when the user discarded the configuration.
This will later be used to restore a previous configuration when a
laptop lid is opened.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This commit changes the new configuration system to use monitors.xml
instead of monitors-experimental.xml. When starting up and the
monitors.xml file is loaded, if a legacy monitors.xml file is
discovered (it has the version number 1), an attempt is made to migrate
the stored configuration onto the new system.
This is done in two steps:
1) Parsing and translation of the old configuration. This works by
parsing file using the mostly the old parser, but then translating the
resulting configuration structs into the new configuration system. As
the legacy configuration system doesn't carry over some state (such as
tiling and scale used), some things are not available. For tiling, the
migration paths makes an attempt to discover tiled monitors by
comparing EDID data, and guessing what the main tile is. Determination
of the scale of a migrated configuration is postponed until the
configuration is actually applied. This works by flagging the
configuration as 'migrated'.
2) Finishing the migration when applying. When a configuration with the
'migrated' flag is retrieved from the configuration store, the final
step of the migration is taken place. This involves calculating the
preferred scale given the mode configured, while making sure this
doesn't result in any overlapping logical monitor regions etc.

The zero-initialized winsys id was incorrectly used as the key to find

The problem is that libinput offers the possibility to not enabled
dragging when tap-to-click is enabled but mutter doesn't. For people who
have a sensitive touchpad and who like tap-to-click option, dragging is
launched even when you don't want it : for example, when you select a
folder, most of the time the folder is dragging whereas just selected or
when you want to select some lines of a text file, several lines are
moved as a cut-paste which is not expected and erase datas.
To fix it, you need to have the possibility to desactivate the drag
option when you use tap-to-click in mutter. Because it's already a
specification of libinput, it remains to add it to mutter.
Implementation with X11 is added too.

This will allows us to support the XF86Display key present on some
laptops, directly in mutter. This is also known, in evdev, as
KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE.
The common usage for this key is to alternate between a few well known
multi-monitor configurations though these aren't officially
standardized. As an example, Lenovo documents it as:
"Switches the display output location between the computer display
and an external monitor."
On this patch, we're just introducing the configurations that have been
implemented in g-s-d until now, which go a bit beyond the above
description.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781906
Instead of letting MetaMonitor derive the logical monitor size, then
using the main monitor for the position, just let MetaMonitor derive
the whole layout including the position. This means it can deal with
tiled monitors better, for example when the main output (the output
always active when the monitor is active) is not the origin output (the
output with tile position (0, 0)).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
Just like we do for buttons, with a few twists. These have 2 directions
mappable to different keycombos, and are affected by the current mode

This basically moves g-s-d's orientation plugin into mutter so that
eventually g-s-d doesn't need to build monitor configurations by
itself anymore.

When verifying if a configuration is applicable, don't set it as

Differentiate between non-interlaced and interlaced modes. This is done
by appending an "i" after the resolution part of the mode ID, and
adding a 'is-interlaced' (b) property to the mode properties.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be more flexible without having to change any D-Bus type signatures
in the future, replace the 'uint' flags value (currently determining
whether a mode is current and/or preferred) with a variant lookup table.
The keys 'is-current' (b) and 'is-preferred' (b) replace the existing
flags.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to add more modes types that happen to have the same
resolution and refresh rate, change the API to specify modes using an
ID string. The ID string is temporary, and only works for associating a

When calculating sizes given some size and a fractional logical monitor
scale with precision loss, round the result of the floating point
calculation to the closest integer, as otherwise we might end up with
result smaller by 1 if there was a loss of precision when calculating
the scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To be able to render the pointer cursor sprite at sub-(logical)-pixel
positions, track the pointer position using floats instead of ints.
This also requires users of the cursor sprite rect to deal with
floating points, when e.g. finding the logical monitor etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When passing scales over D-Bus, we'll loose some precision. To set the
correct scale, use the configured scale and look up the one actually
supported by the monitor mode, and use that. To match the supported one
with the configured one, the difference must be within rounding error
range.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
We manually scaled pointer motions when they travel over a scaled
monitor. When a stage view of a monitor is also scaled, in practice this
meant we scaled twice. Avoid this by only manually scaling the pointer
motion when stage views are not scaled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When using logical sized monitors we are allowed to use fractional scaling
but only if the resulting scaled logical monitor size is in integer form.
So, in order to get this, we allow to scale the monitor to up to
8 fractional values per integer, doing some computation in order to
fetch the nearest values which are closer to the scaling factors we can
permit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
This changes the API to pass supported scales per mode instead of
providing a global list. This allows for more flexible scaling
scenarious, where a scale compatible with one mode can still be made
available even though another mode is incompatible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
When the logical layout mode is used, allow configuring the scaling to
be non-integer. Supported scales are so far hard coded to include at
most 1, 1.5 and 2, and scales that doesn't result in non-fractional
logical monitor sizes are discarded.
Wayland outputs are set to have scale ceil(actual_scale) meaning well
behaving Wayland clients will provide buffers with buffer scale 2, thus
being scaled down to the fractional scale.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765011
To support fractional scaling, change the stage view scale to be a
float instead of an int. Also change the places where it is retrieved
and used when scaling things.

With GLVND, whenever we have both Mesa's and NVIDIA's drives installed
in the system, initializing the GBM backend will always succeed,
regardless of what GPU you have on your system.
This is due to GBM's software rendering fallback.

Wacom's display tablets typically do not have (0,0) coincident with the top
left corner of the screen. This "outbound" area must be taken into account
when setting the area or else an unexpected offset of the pointer will
occur.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784009
It is possible to interpret the ammount of padding provided to the
*_set_tablet_area functions in two different and incompatible ways. The X11
backend effectively treats them as being input-centric (i.e., the padding
defines the size of the "dead zone" on the tablet) while the native backend
has an output-centric viewpoint (i.e., the padding defines the size of the
"dead zone" on the display) viewpoint. This difference in opinion causes the
cursor offset to change when switching between Xorg and a Wayland sessions.
The calibration utility within g-c-c does its calculations with an input-
centric viewpoint, so this patch modifies the native backend to work
correctly with these values. To change viewpoints, we can simply invert
the scale and negate the offset. It should be noted that this function
also forgot to apply scaling to the offsets (as required by the matrix
transform done by libinput) which would have further compounded the
cursor offset issue under Wayland.

Instead of checking all MetaMonitors in the monitor manager, we want to

Due to the pen/eraser device separation in X11, CLUTTER_TABLET_DEVICE does

For devices connected via HDMI (supposedly TVs) we want have a

We will both create and destroy monitors during initialization (when
using the X11 backend), so don't try to access the monitor manager from
the backend, but store a pointer to it instead.
It's stored in MetaMonitor even though only MetaMonitorTiled uses it,
mostly because it makes more sense to store such a pointer there.

In some circumstances, the origin tile (0, 0) is not the one that
should be used to drive the monitor when using a non-tiled mode. Update
MetaMonitorTiled to support this case. It also seems to be so that the
preferred mode might be some low resolution or bogus mode on these
monitors, so also adapt MetaMonitorTiled to manage to ignore the
preferred mode of a tiled monitor if the preferred mode doesn't use
both tiles.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781723
Only support suggested monitor positioning if the monitor is non-tiled.

This commit makes it possible to configure logical monitor scale also
when running on top of an X11 server using Xrandr. An extra property
'requires-globla-scale' is added to the D-Bus API is added to instruct

monitor scale.
This is needed to let gsd-xsettings use the configured state to set a
XSettings state that respects the explicit monitor configuration.

g_hash_table_insert() doesn't replace the key. This was a problem
because the key was owned by the value inserted into the hash table, so
when a value was removed, the key was freed, meaning that the key in
the hash table was no pointing to freed memory. Fix this by using
g_hash_table_replace() instead, which work the same except that it
replaces the key with the one passed. This means that the key of a

Instead of looking at the GTK+ settings, check the logical monitor
state and determine the UI scaling factor given the maximum logical

feature is enabled, as only then can a scale be explicitly configured.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This adds a function to be used by gnome-shell to get the logical

providing a better API later.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The connector returned is the one of the main output. In other words,
for tiled monitors, it is the connector of the (0, 0) tile, and for
non-tiled, it is simply the connector of the output.

Make the nested backend emulate how the real backends actually draw,
i.e. by drawing each CRTC separately. This makes it possible to test
different configuration paths that can take place on different
hardware, without having said hardware.
For example, by setting MUTTER_DEBUG_TILED_DUMMY_MONITORS and
MUTTER_DEBUG_NESTED_OFFSCREEN_TRANSFORM to "1", one can test a system
with MST (tiled) monitors where the GPU doesn't support some transform.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add the transform as a logical monitor parameter, both when getting the
current state and applying a new configuration. The transform is defined
to be identical to MetaMonitorTransform.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Adds a <transform> element to <logicalmonitor>. It has two possible sub
elemenst: <rotation> which can be normal, right, left or upside_down,
and <flipped> which can either be true or false.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add support for rotated monitors. This is done per logical monitor, as
every monitor assigned to a logical monitor must be transformed in the
same way. This includes being transformed on the same level; e.g. if
the backend does not support transforming any monitor of a logical
monitor natively, then all monitors will be transformed using the
offscreen intermediate framebuffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Always draw the stage to an offscreen framebuffer when using the nested
backend, so that we more emulate things more similarly to how it works
real-world, i.e. it'll work the way whether stage views are enabled or
not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The CRTC position depends on the transform and how the transform is
implemented. The function calculating the positions still doesn't
support anything but the non-transformed case; this commit is in
preparation of adding support for transforms.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Keep track of the logical monitor transform. When a logical monitor is
transformed, all of its monitors are also transformed in the same way.
A logical monitor can either be transformed on the CRTC level, or using
an offscreen intermediate buffer. In both cases will the logical
monitor be transformed, but only in the latter will the view be
transformed.
MetaCrtcs::transform currently does not represent whether the CRTC is
configured to be transformed or not; only when the backend can handle
it does it correctly correspond to the actual CRTC configuration. This
is intended to change with MetaMonitorConfigManager.

config object when it was created, but was not unset when the config
verification failed, causing the clean up path for invalid configs to
try to clean up the same list again.

This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This gsetting will allow the adding of keywords to a array, where each
keyword may enable an experimental feauter, if the given mutter version
supports that particular experimental feature. Emphasis is put on the
lack of guarantee that any such keyword has any effect. Currently no
keywords are defined.

Make the concept of maximum screen size optional, as it is not
necessarily a thing on all systems (e.g. when using the native backend
and stage views).
The meta_monitor_monitor_get_limits() function is replaced by a
meta_monitor_manager_get_max_screen_size() which fails when no screen
limit is available. Callers and other users of the previous max screen
size fields are updated to deal with the fact that the limit is
optional.
The new D-Bus API is changed to move it to the properties bag, where
its absence means there is no applicable limit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add a new D-Bus API that uses the state from GetCurrentState to
configure high level monitors, instead of low level CRTCs and
connectors. So far persistent configuration is not implemented, as
writing to the configuration store is still not supported.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Logical monitors in a configuration must be adjecent to each other,
meaning there will be at least one pixel long side touching some other
logical monitor.
The exception to this is when there is only one logical monitor, which
cannot be adjecent to any other.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
We don't want to limit ourself to whole integers for configuration, as
that'd mean it wouldn't be able to provide configurations for
fractional scalings. Thus, change scales to be referred to as floats
instead of ints.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add a 'is_underscanning' entry to the properties map, if the monitor
supports underscanning. The client should assume a monitor does not
support underscanning if no property was added.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add a D-Bus method for getting the current monitor and logical monitor
state. Currently does not contain information about transforms or any
limitations (such as limited CRTCs and cloning).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Let the backends decide whether to just rebuild a derived state, or use
the NULL config to rebuild an empty logical state.
This also changes the expected screen size values of the no-outputs
test; as this case is actually handled now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add support to configure the logical monitor scale. With this, it
becomes possible to override the automatically calculated scaling
number per logical monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Replace the 'scale' of an output with a vfunc on the MetaMonitorManager
class that takes a monitor and a monitor mode which calculates the
scale. On X11 this always returns 1, on KMS, the old formula is used.
On the dummy and test backends, the already configured values are
returned.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The default (calculated) scale is derived from the output, but
ultimately set via the monitor scale. This will enable config files to
override the scale. Yet to be done is handling when a scale is not
supported by a backend (i.e. the X11 backend).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In some cases the hardware cursor is invisible when Mutter is launched from the
TTY, due to drmModeSetCursor2 failing without a fallback being set.
This patch captures the return value of drmModeSetCursor2 and in case of an
error, enables the texture based fallback. It adds a `broken` state, that is
checked in should_have_hw_cursor() and
meta_cursor_renderer_native_realize_cursor_from_*() to avoid copying every
cursor into a gbm buffer when we know it will fail every single time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=770020
Quick motions can come across as too fast (or slow) if it crosses outputs
with different scales. If this happens, rebuild the motion delta applying
the scale that applies to each logical monitor the pointer is crossing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=778119
To allow for more natural pointer movements from relative pointer
devices (e.g. mouse, touchpad, tablet tool in relative mode, etc), scale
the relative motion from libinput with the scale of the monitor. In
effect, this means that the pointer movement is twice as fast (physical
movement vs numbers of pixels passed) as before, but it also means that
the same physical movement crosses the distance in a GUI no matter if
it is on a HiDPI monitor or not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=778119
Clutter's evdev input backend has no support for setting double
click timeout set by gnome-settings-daemon. This results in
touchpad click events timing out on wayland, because the
default timeout value wasn't enough.
This patch moves timeout setting to mutter and removes X11
backend specific setting from clutter.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=771576
The code calculating the output scale involves calculations around pixel
and mm sizes, however we do compare post-transformation pixel sizes to
untransformed mm sizes, which breaks the DPI calculations. Fix this by
transforming back pixel sizes back to untransformed.
While we're at it, actually compare the output height to HIDPI_MIN_HEIGHT
instead of its width, it seems right according to the #define name and
comment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777687
The mitigation to avoid missing EDID blob was incorrect; the reason it
sometimes failed to read was a race between different applications all
trying to read the EDID at the same time. E.g. gnome-shell as GDM would
at the same time as the session gnome-shell try to read the EDID of the
same connector at the same time, triggering a race in the kernel,
making the blob reading ioctl occationally fail with ENOENT.
Remove this mitigation, as it didn't really mitigate anything; the race
could just as well happen when doing the actual read later.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779837
When mutter is paused (i.e. not the DRM master), stop listening on
hotplug events. Instead read the current state and set modes when
resumed.
This avoids a race condition in the drm API which currently only
manages to properly deal with one application querying the EDID state
at the same time when there are multiple mutter instances running at
the same time (e.g. gnome-shell driving gdm at the same time as
gnome-shell as the session instance).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779837
A MetaOutput is a connector, not exactly a monitor or a region on the
stage; for example tiled monitors are split up into multiple outputs,
and for what is used in input settings, that makes no sense. Change
this to use logical monitors instead of outputs.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
When no output was specified, the screen limit was used to calculate the
aspect ratio. The screen limit, however, is either just an arbitrary
number if no screen limit is applicable, or a hardware graphics buffer
limit, which has nothing to do with anything actually displayed. Change
it to use the screen size instead, to get something that makes more
sense when no output is found.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Expose via a new API whether the transform on a logical monitor is
handled by the backend. This was previously only exposed only in the
native backend. This will be used to emulate not supporting transforms
in the backend in the nested backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Previously, the size of the logical monitor was derived directly from
the tiling information. This works fine until we add transformations,
or set modes with a dimension different from the resulting resolution
when tiled. Fix this by traversing the assigned CRTC rects, as these
are already transformed by the configuration system.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
By setting the environment variable MUTTER_DEBUG_TILED_DUMMY_MONITORS
to "1", the dummy MetaMonitorManager backend used when running mutter
nested will create tiled monitors instead of single-output/CRTC
monitors. This makes it possible to test tiled monitor configuration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Refactor monitor generation by splitting the generation of modes, CRTCs
and outputs into a separate function. A side effect is that each output
will have its own set of possible modes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Split up logical monitor cration into derived (when derived from
current underlying configuration) and non-derived (when creating from a
logical monitor configuration). This avoids that type of logic in the
logical monitor creation function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Add support for non-tiled monitor modes on tiled monitors. This is done
by adding all the other supported modes, except the modes with the
same resolution as the tile dimensions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
When adding a monitor and all its outputs, don't try to set the logical
monitor of the outputs CRTC if none was assigned. This might happen if
a tiled monitor only uses a subset of the connectors it are connected
via.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
Don't set the CRTC rect and screen size at in read_current(), as those
depends on how the configuration is done. Instead, don't set the CRTC
rect at all, and update the screen dimensions when being configured.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779745
No XDnD events which notify DnD status change comes in Wayland. To emulate XDnD
behavior, MetaDnd checks whether there is a grab or not when the modal window
starts showing. When there is a grab, it processes the raw events from
compositor, and emits DnD signals for plugin.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765003
Implement MetaDnd for emitting DnD signals to plugins such as gnome-shell. The
xdnd handling code comes from gnome-shell, and it is hidden behind MetaDnd now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765003
When running nested, the pointer can be outside of the stage, meaning
outside of any logical monitor. Handle this when getting the current
logical monitor by falling back to the first logical monitor when the
pointer coordinate is outside of any logical monitor.

Whenever an EGLOutput consumer is temporary unable to handle
eglStreamConsumerAcquire() operations (e.g. during a VT-switch),
an EGL_RESOURCE_BUSY_EXT error is generated.
This change adds the appropriate error handling to flip_egl_stream() in
order to recover from such errors.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779112
This change adds descriptions for the following errors to
get_egl_error_str():
- EGL_BAD_STREAM_KHR
- EGL_BAD_STATE_KHR
- EGL_BAD_DEVICE_EXT
- EGL_BAD_OUTPUT_LAYER_EXT
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779112
Set up things so that if the INTEL_swap_event extension is not present,
but the driver is known to have good thread support, we use an extra
thread and call glXWaitVideoSync() in the thread. This allows idles
to work properly, even when Mutter is constantly redrawing new frames;
otherwise, without INTEL_swap_event, we'll just block in glXSwapBuffers().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=779039
Split up the X11 backend into two parts, one for running as a
Compositing Manager, and one for running as a nested Wayland
compositor.
This commit also cleans up the compositor configuration calculation,

As all the relevant backends are expected to provide

Using ClutterInputDeviceEvdev::output-aspect-ratio. This only applies

We couldn't properly merge output-mapping matrix and calibration into

The initial state of the hardware cursor is not known, so always force

Clutter assumed seat0 which is most usually, but not always correct.
Add an evdev-backend specific function to allow passing the seat

The MetaOutput::is_primary state was not correctly managed in two cases:
* for tiled monitors, the primary state got overridden when setting
the preferred resolution
* for laptop lid, it was not set if the laptop panel happened to be

MetaMonitorConfigStore provides an XML storage mechanism for
MetaMonitorConfigManager. It stores configuration files defined in the
same level as the MetaMonitorsConfig format, i.e. refers to high level
"monitors" and "monitor modes" instead of connectors and CRTCs.
Only reading custom files are implemented and so far unused.

Add a meta_monitors_config_new() helper. It's exposed outside of

Move the UpClients notify::lid-is-closed signal handling into
MetaMonitorManager, and put the getter behind a vfunc. This means
Placing it behind a vfunc allows custom backends to implement it
differently; for example the test backend can mock the state.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Adds an API to get the position suggested by the backend. This
translates to position advertised by some VM:s, used to hint at a

The new monitor configuration system (MetaMonitorConfigManager) aims to
replace the current MetaMonitorConfig. The main difference between the
two is that MetaMonitorConfigManager works with higher level input
(MetaMonitor, MetaMonitorMode) instead of directly looking at the CRTC
and connector state. It still produces CRTC and connector configuration
later applied by the respective backends.
Other difference the new system aims to introduce is that the
configuration system doesn't manipulate the monitor manager state; that
responsibility is left for the monitor manager to handle (it only
manages configuration and creates CRTC/connector assignments, it
doesn't apply anything).
The new configuration system allows backends to not rely on deriving the
current configuration from the CRTC/connector state, as this may no longer be
possible (i.e. when using KMS and multiple framebuffers).
The MetaMonitorConfigManager system is so far disabled by default, as
it does not yet have all the features of the old system, but eventually
it will replace MetaMonitorConfig which will at that point be removed.
This will make it possible to remove old hacks introduced due to
limitations in the old system.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Operate on MetaMonitor's instead of MetaOutput's, as the latter may be

When a logical monitor constains monitors with different subpixel
ordering, make the wl_output have the subpixel order 'unknown' so that

Sometimes we hit a race on hot-plug where we try to read the KMS
resources and the EDID blob is not yet ready. This would normally
result in a ENOENT when retrieving the blob. Handle this by retrying
after 50 milliseconds after a hot-plug event. Do this up to 10 times,
and after that give up trying to get the EDID blob and continue with
best effort.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
The function meta_monitor_manager_read_current_config() was renamed to
meta_monitor_manager_read_current_state() as it does not read any
configuration, but reads the current state as described by the backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
In preparation of replacing the configuration system with one working
with high level monitors instead of low level outputs etc, move
configuarion handling code into obviously named function (containing
the word 'legacy'.

A monitor spec object is meant to be used to identify a certain monitor
on a certain output. The spec is unique per actual monitor and connector,
meaning that a monitor that changes from one connector from another
(e.g. HDMI1 to HDMI2) will not be identified as the same. It is meant
to associate for example a configuration entry with an actual monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add a "mode spec" concept, meaning to be used as a identifier for an
actual monitor mode. It consists of details making a mode unique, i.e.
the total resolution and refresh rate. This will later be used to get
the actual monitor mode (set of one or more CRTC modes).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Add "monitor modes" abstracting the modes set on a monitor. On normal
monitors, this directly maps to the CRTC modes, but on tiled monitors,
a monitor mode can consist modes per tiled output.

Don't try to mirror the physical dimension, since that's a property of

Don't deal with adding/removing tiled Xrandr monitors in the generic
backend, but leave it to the Xrandr backend. The tiled monitor will

Tiled Xrandr monitors are now based no MetaMonitor instead of
MetaLogicalMonitor. This means that mirrored tiled monitors will now be
represented correctly.
