Previously picking was done on an int (x,y) to address a particular pixel.
While `int` was the minimum precision required, it was also an unnecessary
type conversion.
The callers (input events mainly) all provide float coordinates and the
internal picking calculations also have always used floats. So it was
inconsistent and unnecessary to drop to integer precision in between those.
ABI break: This changes the parameter types for public function
`clutter_stage_get_actor_at_pos`, but its documentation is already
sufficiently vague to not need changing.

This is an extremely straightforward and minimalistic port of
CoglVector APIs to the corresponding Graphene APIs.
Make ClutterPlane use graphene_vec3_t internally too, for the
simplest purpose of keeping the patch focused.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/458
Mutter requires Clutter, which requires Cogl. That means
Clutter requires all Cogl dependencies, and Mutter requires
all Clutter dependencies as well.
However, currently, Clutter does not pull in its dependencies,
which means we need to link against Cogl manually.
Add Clutter dependencies to declare_dependency() so that the
graphene dependency only needs to be declared once, for Cogl,
and pulled together.

This is a deprecated property that is not used anywhere
in the codebase. Not by GNOME Shell. Because it uses the
deprecated ClutterGeometry type, it's a good target for
cleaning up, given that ClutterGeometry will be dropped
later on.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/458
Fog is explicitly deprecated in favour of CoglSnippet API,
and in nowhere we are using this deprecated feature, which
means we can simply drop it without any sort of replacement.

When clutter actors with key focus are destroyed we emit ::key-focus-out on
them just after their destruction. This is against our assumption that no
signal should be emitted after "::destroy" (see GNOME/mutter!769 [1]), and
in fact could cause the shell to do actions that we won't ever stop on
destroy callback.
To avoid this to happen, use a private function to set its key-state (so we
can avoid looking for the stage) and emit ::key-focus-in/out events and use
this value in both clutter_actor_has_key_focus(),
clutter_actor_grab_key_focus() and on unmap and destruction to unset the
stage key focus before we emit the ::destroy signal.
As result of this, we can now avoid to unset the key focus on actor
destruction in the stage.

Clutter had support for internal children in its early revisions, but they
were deprecated for long time (commit f41061b8df, more than 7 years ago) and
no one is using them in both clutter and in gnome-shell.

This is for all intents and purposes the same as
`cogl_object_ref/unref`, but still refers to handles rather than
objects (while we're trying to get rid of the former) so it's a bit of
unnecessary redundant API.

The default value of the ClutterShaderEffect:shader-type
property is CLUTTER_FRAGMENT_SHADER. However, because the
struct field is not actually initialized to it, it ends
up assuming the value 0, which is CLUTTER_VERTEX_SHADER.
Properly initialize ClutterShaderEffect's shader_type to
CLUTTER_FRAGMENT_SHADER.

ClutterActor took a reference in its transition 'stopped' handler,
aiming to keep the transition alive during signal emission even if it
was removed during. This is, however, already taken care of by
ClutterTimeline, by always taking a reference during its 'stopped'
signal emission, so no need to add another one.
This also has the bonus of making reference ownership simpler, as well
as avoidance of double free if an actor was destroyed before a
transition has finished.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/828
Implicit transitions had a referenced taken while emitting the
completion signals, but said reference would only be released if it was
had remove-on-complete set to TRUE.
Change this to instead remove the 'is_implicit' state and mark all
implicit transitions as remove-on-complete. This fixes a
ClutterPropertyTransition leak in gnome-shell triggered by e.g. showing
/ hiding menus.

The final version of the function was changed to allow points that are
touching the edge of a quadrilateral to be counted as "inside". Update
the function documentation to refect this.
Also clarify that the function is written in such a way that it is
agnostic to clockwise or anticlockwise vertex ordering.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/783
In `clutter_stage_view_blit_offscreen()`, the given clipping rectangle
is in “view” coordinates whereas we intend to copy the whole actual
framebuffer, meaning that we cannot use the clipping rectangle.
Use the actual framebuffer size, starting at (0, 0) instead.
That fixes the issue with partial repainting with shadow framebuffer
when fractional scaling is enabled.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/820
Clutter actors might emit property changes in dispose, while unparenting.
However we assume that the ::destroy signal is the last one we emit for an
actor, and that starting from this moment the object is not valid anymore,
and so we don't expect any signal emission from it.
To avoid this, freeze the object notifications on an actor during its
disposition, just before the ::destroy signal emission.
Update the actor-destroy test to verify this behavior.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/769
Clutter actors unset their parent on dispose, after emitting the ::destroy
signal, however this could cause ::parent-set signal emission. Since we
assume that after the destruction has been completed the actor isn't valid
anymore, and that during the destroy phase we do all the signal / source
disconnections, this might create unwanted behaviors, as in the signal
callbacks we always assume that the actor isn't in disposed yet.
To avoid this, don't emit ::parent-set signal if the actor is being
destroyed.
Update the actor-destroy test to verify this behavior.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/769
If there is no transformation, use `cogl_blit_framebuffer()` as a
shortcut in `clutter_stage_view_blit_offscreen()`, that dramatically
improves performance when using a shadow framebuffer.

Delayed clutter timelines might be removed while they are still in the
process of being executed, but if they are not playing yet their delay
timeout won't be stopped, causing them to be executed anyway, leading to a
potential crash.
In fact if something else keeps a reference on the timelines (i.e. gjs), the
dispose vfunc delay cancellation won't take effect, causing the timelines to
be started and added to the master clock.
To avoid this, expose clutter_timeline_cancel_delay() function and call it
if a timeline is not playing but has a delay set.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/815https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/805
If a timeline is delayed and we request to stop or pause it, we are emitting
the "::paused" signal on it, however this has never been started, and so
nothing has really be paused.
So, just try to cancel the delay on pause and return if not playing.
No code in mutter or gnome-shell is affected by this, so it is safe to
change.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/805
Clutter stage used to compute the initial projection using a fixed z
translation which wasn't matching the one we computed in
calculate_z_translation().
This caused to have a wrong initial projection on startup which was then
correctly recomputed only at the first paint.
However, since this calculation doesn't depend on view, but only on viewport
size, perspective's fovy and z_near we can safely do this at startup and
only when any of those parameters change.
Then we can move the computation out _clutter_stage_maybe_setup_viewport()
since the cogl framebuffer viewport sizes aren't affecting this.

When suspending, the devices are removed and the virtual device
associated with the corresponding core pointer is disposed.

Currently, Clutter does picking by drawing with Cogl and reading
the pixel that's beneath the given point. Since Cogl has a journal
that records drawing operations, and has optimizations to read a
single pixel from a list of rectangle, it would be expected that
we would hit this fast path and not flush the journal while picking.
However, that's not the case: dithering, clipping with scissors, etc,
can all flush the journal, issuing commands to the GPU and making
picking slow. On NVidia-based systems, this glReadPixels() call is
extremely costly.
Introduce geometric picking, and avoid using the Cogl journal entirely.
Do this by introducing a stack of actors in ClutterStage. This stack
is cached, but for now, don't use the cache as much as possible.
The picking routines are still tied to painting.
When projecting the actor vertexes, do it manually and take the modelview
matrix of the framebuffer into account as well.

This reverts commit f57ce7254d.
It causes crashes, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/735, and
changes various expectations relied upon by the renderer code, and being
close to release, it's safer to revert now and reconsider how to remove
the pending swap counter at a later point.
Add a boolean parameter to the signal to inform the handler whether the
timeout completed successfully or not. This allows the shell to
gracefully end the pie timer animation and show a success animation when
the click happens.

When a dwell click causes the pointer to move to another surface, a
synthetic event is generated which triggers another dwell click.
Make sure we ignore those to avoid dwell clicking twice in a raw.
Suggested-by: Carlos Garnacho <carlosg@gnome.org>
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/747
Restarting the dwell click immediately would result in a contant
animation showing.
Start dwell detection in its own timeout handler, which has the nice
effect of not constantly showing a dwell animation and also making sure
that the dwell click timeout is started when pointer movement stops.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/747
Sometimes the dwell timeout doesn't start again after quickly moving the
pointer. That happens if `should_stop_dwell` returns TRUE for the last
motion event we receive: It will stop the current timeout, but not start
a new one until we receive another event where the moved distance is
smaller than the threshold.
To fix this, always call `should_start_dwell` and `start_dwell_timeout`
instead of using an else-block, this makes sure we start a new dwell
timeout still during the same motion event that stopped the old one.

And add the necessary glue so those initialize a X11 clutter backend.

The end goal is to have all clutter backend code in src/backends. Input

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

Mutter needs to know which framebuffer the paint nodes will be

Incompressible events already pass through unmodified, so queuing them
just wasted time and memory.
We would however like to keep the ordering of events so we can only
apply this optimization if the queue is empty.
This reduces the input latency of incompressible events like touchpad
scrolling or drawing tablets by up to one frame. It also means the same
series of events now arrives at the client more smoothly and not in
bursts.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/711
Until now we would:
1. Enqueue modifier key event on the stage.
2. Update device modifier state.
3. Dequeue and process modifier key event with NEW device modifier state.
But if we consider optimizing out the queuing in some cases then there
will become a problem:
1. Process modifier key event with OLD device modifier state.
2. Update device modifier state.
To correct the above we now do:
1. Update device modifier state.
2. Queue/process modifier key event with NEW device modifier state.
It appears commit dd940a71 which introduced the old behaviour was correct
in the need to update the device modifier state, but is at least no longer
correct (if it ever was) that it should be done after queuing the event.
If queuing is working, as it is right now, then it makes no difference
whether the device modifier state is updated before or after. Because both
cases will come before the dequeing and processing.

If possible, GLib will try to use the va_marshaller to pass the signal
arguments, rather than unboxing into and out of a `GValue`. This is much
more performant and especially good for often-thrown signals.
The original bug even mentions Clutter performance issues as a drive to
implement the va_marshaller in GLib (see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661140).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/700
Some of the marshallers we generate in `clutter-marshal.list` are also
available in GLib, so we don't need to generate them ourselves. Even
more, by passing NULL to `g_signal_new` in these cases will actually
internally optimize this even more by also setting the valist
marshaller, which is a little bit faster than the regular marshalling
using `GValue` and libffi.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/700
`g_object_notify()` actually takes a global lock to look up the property
by its name, which means there is a performance hit (albeit tiny) every

Since commit 0eab73dc, actors are only allocated when they are actually
visible. While this generally works well, it breaks - because of *course*
it does - ClutterClones when the clone source (or any of its ancestors)

intended.

The type has been deprecated, so stop using it. The easiest replacement
would be to add our own struct, but considering that separate name/value

Glib stopped providing any fallback implementations on systems without
memmove() all the way back in 2013. Since then, the symbol is a simple
macro around memmove(); use that function directly now that glib added
a deprecation warning.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/689
Currently nothing in the clutter machinery prevents hidden portions
of the actor tree from calling queue_relayout() (and having it fully
honored).
But that allocation should not be necessary till the actor is shown,
and one of the things we do on show() is queueing a relayout/redraw
after flagging the actor as visible.
We can simply defer clutter_actor_allocate() calls till that show()
call, and leave the needs_allocate and other flags set so we ensure
the allocation is properly set then.
This should cut down some needless operations when invisible portions
of the actor tree change indirectly due to user interaction, or due
to background activity.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/677
Clutter has two motion event toggles: one in the global context, and
one per stage. The global one is deprecated, and currently unused.
Remove the global motion event handling.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/666
The “togglekeys” setting is to emit a sounds whenever the state of one
of the modifiers keys (CAPS lock, NUM Lock, SCROLL lock) is changed, it
has nothing to do with the rest of the accessibility settings.
Therefore, there is no need to reset the various timers used by
accessibility whenever the “togglekeys” setting is changed.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/614
ClutterStage:after-paint now does not guarantee a valid
implicit framebuffer pushed to the stack. Instead, use
the new 'paint-view' signal, that is emitted at a point
in the drawing routine where a framebuffer is pushed.
In addition to that, stop using the implicit framebuffer
API and port the actor-shader-effect test to read from
the view's framebuffer directly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
Now that ClutterStageView is embraced as part of the public
set of Clutter classes, is it possible to give consumers
of this API more information and control over the drawing
routines of ClutterStage.
Introduce ClutterStage:paint-view, a signal that is emitted
for painting a specific view. It's defined as a RUN_LAST
signal to give anyone connecting to it the ability to run
before the view is actually painted, or after (using the
G_CONNECT_AFTER flag, or g_signal_connect_after).
This signal has a corresponding class handler, which allows
Mutter to have much finer control over the painting routines.
In fact, this will allow us to implement a "paint phase watcher"
mechanism in the following patches.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
ClutterStage:after-paint is supposed to be emitted after all
painting is done, but before the frame is finished. However,
as it is right now, it is being emitted after each view is
painted -- on multi-monitor setups, after-frame is being
emitted multiple times.
Send after-paint only once, after all views are painted and
before finishing the frame.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/623
As a compositor toolkit, it makes sense to allow consumers
of Clutter interact with the stage views themselves. As such,
ClutterStageView should be a public class.
As such, it is now included in clutter.h and should not be
included directly.

When a user moves their cursor the perceived behaviour is that it will
pick what is under the cursor. However this isn't how picking works.
Picking does a virtual redraw of the screen, so in some cases what gets
picked isn't the same as what the user could see on the previous frame.
It more represents what will be drawn on the next frame than what is on
screen at present.
It may be unsafe to change these semantics, and they are useful anyway.
Just document it better.

After 4faeb12731, the maximum time allowed for an update to happen
is calculated as:
max_render_time_allowed = refresh_interval - 1000 * sync_delay;
However, extremely small refresh intervals -- that come as consequence
to extremely high refresh rates -- may fall into an odd numerical range
when refresh_interval < 1000 * sync_delay. That would give us a negative
time.
To be extra cautious about it, add another sanity check for this case.
Change suggested by Jasper St. Pierre.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363
The presentation timing logic (via `master_clock_get_swap_wait_time`) now
works unconditionally. By "works" we mean that a result of zero from
`master_clock_get_swap_wait_time` actually means zero now. Previously
zero could mean either a successful result of zero milliseconds or that
the backend couldn't get an answer. And a non-zero result is the same as
before.
This works even if the screen is "idle" and even if the backend doesn't
provide presentation timestamps. So now our two fallback throttling
mechanisms of relying on `CLUTTER_FEATURE_SWAP_THROTTLE` and decimating
to `clutter_get_default_frame_rate` can be deleted.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/406 and
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781835https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363
If `last_presentation_time` is zero (unsupported) or just very old
(system was idle) then we would like to avoid that triggering a large
number of loop interations. This will get us closer to the right answer
without iterating.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363
That could happen if the backend did not provide presentation timestamps,
or if the screen was not changing other than the hardware cursor:
if (stage_cogl->last_presentation_time == 0||
stage_cogl->last_presentation_time < now - 150000)
{
stage_cogl->update_time = now;
return;
}
By setting `update_time` to `now`, master_clock_get_swap_wait_time()
returns 0:
gint64 now = g_source_get_time (master_clock->source);
if (min_update_time < now)
{
return 0;
}
else
{
gint64 delay_us = min_update_time - now;
return (delay_us + 999) / 1000;
}
However, zero is a value unsupported by the default master clock
due to:
if (swap_delay != 0)
return swap_delay;
All cases are now handled by extrapolating when the next presentation
time would be and calculating an appropriate update time to meet that.
We also need to add a check for `update_time == last_update_time`, which
is a situation that just became possible since we support old (or zero)
values of `last_presentation_time`. This avoids getting more than one
stage update per frame interval when input events arrive without
triggering a stage redraw (e.g. moving the hardware cursor).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/363
Instead of crazy refresh rates >1MHz falling back to 60Hz, just honour
them by rendering unthrottled (same as `sync_delay < 0`). Although I
wouldn't actually expect that path to ever be needed in reality, it just
ensures an infinite `while` loop never happens.

When using evdev (for Wayland), the backend receives all device events
and queue them for clutter.
Hook up the pointer accessibility handlers in clutter's main processing
queue, so that we get better accuracy for pointer location.
We need to avoid doing this on X11 though because X11 relies on the raw
events for this to work reliably, so the same is already done in the
X11 backend when using X11.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/512

assist operations.

For accessibility features, being either keyboard accessibility to
implement mousekeys, or pointer accessibility to implement simulated

for keyboard or pointer accessibility.

Add `-DG_DISABLE_CHECKS`, `-DG_DISABLE_ASSERT` and `-DG_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS` to all

Commit df7d8e2cb highlights a crash on test_destroy_destroy, in fact it could
happen that calling clutter_actor_destroy on a child while iterating on the

So instead of manually free the children list, just ensure that this list is

Commit cabcad185 removed the call to cogl_set_source_color4ub() before
cogl_fill_path(), so instead of the previously assigned selection color,
the background is drawn with the last set source.
In order to honour the newly added framebuffer parameter and still apply
the correct color, switch from cogl_fill_path() to the (deprecated!)
cogl_framebuffer_fill_path() method.

If an update (new frame) had been scheduled already before
`_clutter_stage_cogl_presented` was called then that means it was
scheduled for the wrong time. Because the `last_presentation_time` has
changed since then. And using an `update_time` based on an outdated
presentation time results in scheduling frames too early, filling the
buffer queue (triple buffering or worse) and high visual latency.
So if we do receive a presentation event when an update is already
scheduled, remember to reschedule the update based on the newer
`last_presentation_time`. This way we avoid overfilling the buffer queue
and limit ourselves to double buffering for less visible lag.

Pango functions pango_unichar_direction() and pango_find_base_dir() have been
deprecated in pango 1.44, since these are used mostly clutter and gtk, copy the
code from pango and use fribidi dependency explicitly.
This is the same strategy used by Gtk.

The `last_presentation_time` is usually a little in the past (although
sometimes in the future depending on the driver). When it's over 2ms
(`sync_delay`) in the past that would trigger the while loop to count up so
that the next `update_time` is in the future.
The problem with that is for common values of `last_presentation_time`
which are only a few milliseconds ago, incrementing `update_time` by
`refresh_interval` also means counting past the next physical frame that
we haven't rendered yet. And so mutter would skip that frame.
**Example**
Given:
```
last_presentation_time = now - 3ms
sync_delay = 2ms
refresh_interval = 16ms
next_presentation_time = last_presentation_time + refresh_interval
= now + 13ms
-3ms now +13ms +29ms +45ms
----|--+------------|---------------|---------------|----
: :
last_presentation_time next_presentation_time
```
Old algorithm:
```
update_time = last_presentation_time + sync_delay
= now - 1ms
while (update_time < now)
(now - 1ms < now)
update_time = now - 1ms + 16ms
update_time = now + 15ms
next_presentation_time = now + 13ms
available_render_time = next_presentation_time - max(now, update_time)
= (now + 13ms) - (now + 15ms)
= -2ms so the next frame will be skipped.
-3ms now +13ms +29ms +45ms
----|--+------------|-+-------------|---------------|----
: : :
: : update_time (too late)
: :
last_presentation_time next_presentation_time (a missed frame)
```
New algorithm:
```
min_render_time_allowed = refresh_interval / 2
= 8ms
max_render_time_allowed = refresh_interval - sync_delay
= 14ms
target_presentation_time = last_presentation_time + refresh_interval
= now - 3ms + 16ms
= now + 13ms
while (target_presentation_time - min_render_time_allowed < now)
(now + 13ms - 8ms < now)
(5ms < 0ms)
# loop is never entered
update_time = target_presentation_time - max_render_time_allowed
= now + 13ms - 14ms
= now - 1ms
next_presentation_time = now + 13ms
available_render_time = next_presentation_time - max(now, update_time)
= (now + 13ms) - now
= 13ms which is plenty of render time.
-3ms now +13ms +29ms +45ms
----|-++------------|---------------|---------------|----

The reason nobody noticed these missed frames very often was because
mutter has some accidental workarounds built-in:
* Prior to 3.32, the offending code was only reachable in Xorg sessions.
It was never reached in Wayland sessions because it hadn't been
implemented yet (till e9e4b2b72).
* Even though Wayland support is now implemented the native backend
provides a `last_presentation_time` much faster than Xorg sessions
(being in the same process) and so is less likely to spuriously enter
the while loop to miss a frame.
* For Xorg sessions we are accidentally triple buffering (#334). This
is a good way to avoid the missed frames, but is also an accident.
* `sync_delay` is presently just high enough (2ms by coincidence is very
close to common values of `now - last_presentation_time`) to push the
`update_time` into the future in some cases, which avoids entering the
while loop. This is why the same missed frames problem was also noticed
when experimenting with `sync_delay = 0`.

We only call _clutter_input_device_update with devices that are not
Keyboard devices. Also passing a Keyboard device to a function whose
primary purpose is picking should be considered a bug in the caller.
