Both the fragend and vertend shader state was called
"CoglPipelineShaderState", which was rather annoying, especially when
the type needs to be exposed outside of the .c file as part of moving
out unit tests. Make the types unique. This also avoids confusing what

Make CoglJournal a free-form struct, and adjust CoglFramebuffer to
call _cogl_journal_free() instead of cogl_object_unref().

DMA buffers might be allocatable, but it doesn't mean the driver doesn't
fail when we try to allocate a buffer with an implicit modifier. Using
the proprietary NVIDIA driver for example, it will fail. Lets catch this

Previously, we would only check for EXT_swap_buffers_with_damage which

Returns TRUE if the active renderer backend can allocate DMA buffers.
This is the case hardware accelerated GBM backends, but FALSE for
surfaceless (i.e. no render node) and EGLDevice (legacy NVIDIA paths).
While software based gbm devices can allocate DMA buffers, we don't want
to allocate them for offscreen rendering, as we really only use these
for inter process transfers, and as buffers allocated for scanout
doesn't use the relevant API, making it return FALSE for these solves
that.

Because both code paths require the existence of `GL_TIMESTAMP[_EXT]`
which is only guaranteed if `ARB_timer_query` (included in GL core 3.3)
is implemented.
We know when that is true because `context->glGenQueries` and
`context->glQueryCounter` are non-NULL. So that is the minimum
requirement for any use of `GL_TIMESTAMP`, even when it is used in
`glGetInteger64v`.
Until now, Raspberry Pi (OpenGL 2.1) would find a working implementation
of `glGetInteger64v` but failed to check whether the driver understands
`GL_TIMESTAMP` (it doesn't).

When Cogl gained support for importing pixmaps, I think there was a
misunderstanding that there is a difference in how it works in GLX and
EGL where GLX needs to rebind the pixmap in order to guarantee that
changes are reflected in the texture after it detects damage, whereas
with EGL it doesn’t. The GLX spec makes it pretty clear that it does
need to rebind whereas the EGL spec is a bit harder to follow. As a
fallout from Mesa MR 12869, it seems like the compositor really does
need to rebind the image to comply with the spec. Notably, in
OES_EGL_image_external there is:
"Binding (or re-binding if already bound) an external texture by calling
BindTexture after all modifications are complete guarantees that
sampling done in future draw calls will return values corresponding to
the values in the buffer at or after the time that BindTexture is
called."
So this commit changes the x11_damage_notify handler for EGL to lazily
queue a rebind like GLX does. The code that binds the image while
allocating the texture has been moved into a reusable helper function.
It seems like there is a bit of a layering violation when accessing the
GL driver internals from the EGL winsys code, but I noticed that the GLX
code also includes the driver GL headers and otherwise it seems pretty
tricky to do properly.

We need to call eglBindAPI() with GLES before we setup the secondary
GPU blit. We've been lucky not really needing this, as it has been
GLES default, which is what the secondary blit uses, in order to not
depend on the default, or if we want to create the secondary blit
objects after initializing cogl, we must make sure to bind the right API
at the right time.
As we need to bind the GLES API when setting up the secondary blit, we
need to make sure that cogl gets the right API bound when that's done,
so Cogl can continue working. For this, add a "bind_api()" method on the
CoglRenderer object, that will know what API is correct to bind.

Just like we do on EGL. Two bits are required because
`cogl-clip-stack-gl.c` needs each stencil buffer element to be able to
count from 0 to 2.
This mistake probably went unnoticed because:
* Drivers usually provide more than 1 anyway; and
* Optimizations in `cogl-clip-stack-gl.c` avoid calling the code that
needs to count past 1 in most cases.

Previously we were using a mask of 0x1 for the lifetime of the stencil.
This was wrong for two reasons:
* The intersection algorithm needs to count up to a maximum 2, so a
mask of 1 would clamp to 1 instead. Then decrementing all pixels
resulted in all pixels being zero even though we want some to be 1.
So the stencil then blocked some color buffer pixels being rendered.
* The lifetime of the mask was too long. By leaving it non-zero at
the end of the function we could accidentally end up modifying the
stencil contents during our later color buffer paints.
This fixes faulty rendering of some actors seen in gnome-shell with
test case: `env COGL_DEBUG=stencilling`

This concerns only the cases when the presentation timestamp is received
directly from the device (from KMS or from GLX). In the majority of
cases this timestamp is already MONOTONIC. When it isn't, after this
commit, the current value of the MONOTONIC clock is sampled instead.
The alternative is to store the clock id alongside the timestamp, with
possible values of MONOTONIC, REALTIME (from KMS) and GETTIMEOFDAY (from
GLX; this might be the same as REALTIME, I'm not sure), and then
"convert" the timestamp to MONOTONIC when needed. An example of such a
conversion was done in compositor.c (removed in this commit). It would
also be needed for the presentation-time Wayland protocol. However, it
seems that the vast majority of up-to-date systems are using MONOTONIC
anyway, making this effort not justified.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1484>
KMS and GLX device timestamps have microsecond precision, and whenever
we sample the time ourselves it's not the real presentation time anyway,
so nanosecond precision for that case is unnecessary.
The presentation timestamp in ClutterFrameInfo is in microseconds, too,
so this commit makes them have the same precision.

d42f1873fc introduced a semi circular
reference between the CoglFramebuffer, and CoglJournal, where
CoglJournal would keep a reference on the CoglFramebuffer when there
were any entries in the journal log.
To avoid risking leaking these objects indefinitely, when freeing
objects without doing anything that triggered a flush, CoglFramebuffer
had a "filter" on cogl_object_unref() calls, which knew
about under what conditions CoglJournal had a reference to it. When it
could detect that there were only the journal itself holding such a
reference, it'd flush the journal, effectively releasing the reference
the journal held, thus freeing itself, as well as the journal.
When CoglFramebuffer was ported to be implemented using GObject instead
of CoglObject, this "filter" was missed, causing not only awkward but
infrequent leaks, but also situations where we'd flush journals when
only the journal itself held the last reference to the framebuffer,
meaning the journal would free the framebuffer, thus itself, in the
middle of flushing, causing memory corruption and crashes.
A way to detect this, by asserting on CoglObject reference count during
flush, is by adding the `g_assert()` as described below, which will
assert instead cause memory corruption.
void
_cogl_journal_flush (CoglJournal *journal
{
...
_cogl_journal_discard (journal);
+ g_assert (journal->_parent.ref_count > 0);
...
}
Fix this by making CoglFramebuffer the owner of the journal, which it
already was, and remove any circle referencing that was there before, as
it is not needed given that the CoglFramebuffer pointer is guaranteed to
be valid for the lifetime of CoglJournal as the framebuffer is the owner
of the journal.
However, to not miss flushing before tearing down, which is important as
this flushes painting calls to the driver that is important for e.g.
using the result of those journal entries, flush the journal the first
time cogl_framebuffer_dispose() is called, before doing anything else.
This also adds a test case. Without having broken the circular
reference, the test would fail on g_assert_null (offscreen), as it would
have been "leaked" at this point, but the actual memory corruption would
be a result of the `cogl_texture_get_data()` call, which flushes the
framebuffer, and causes the 'mid-flush' destruction of the journal
described above. Note that the texture keeps track of dependent
framebuffers, but it does not hold any references to them.

Mutter needs to fetch the X11 Window ID from the onscreen and did that
by using an X11 specific API on the CoglOnscreen, where the X11 type was
"expanded" (Window -> uint32_t). Change this by introducing an interface

implementations, that keeps the right type (Window), while avoiding X11

Thins means that e.g. MetaOnscreenNative now inherits CoglOnscreenEgl,
which inherits CoglOnscreen which inherits CoglFramebuffer, all being
the same GObject instance.
This makes it necessary to the one creating the onscreen to know what it
wants to create. For the X11 backend, the type of renderer (Xlib EGL or
GLX) determines the type, and for the native backend, it's currently
always MetaOnscreenNative.

Don't mode set each CRTC in separate KMS updates, as reconfiguring one
CRTC might cause other CRTCs to be implicitly reset thus as well,
causing KMS return EBUSY if using atomic modesetting.
Prepare for this by compositing each CRTC first including adding steps
to the KMS update, but wait until all views has rendered at least once
before posting the initial update. After this each CRTC is posted
separately.
Using EGLStreams instead of normal page flipping seems to fail when
doing this though, so handle that the old way for the EGLStream case,
i.e. eglSwapBuffers() -> mode set with dumb buffer -> eglStream
"acquire" (resulting in page flip under the hood).
For this we also introduce a new error code so that we don't use client
buffers when doing mode sets, which could accidentally configure the
CRTC in a way that is incompatible with the primary plane buffers.
Do the same also when we're in power save mode, to only have one special

Because the framebuffer itself might be backed by a texture, which might
have mipmapping enabled. If so then rendering to the framebuffer will make
those mipmaps out of date.
Technically we are flagging the framebuffer's mipmaps as dirty *before*
they are, because the journal hasn't been flushed yet. But we need to do
it early because ideally the next flush will both write the offscreen
framebuffer contents and then read them for use in rendering to an onscreen
framebuffer. And the `mipmaps_dirty` flag needs to be set before the read,
so therefore we need to do it before the next journal flush.

Internally, a graphene_matrix_t representing the same transform that
of a CoglMatrix is the same matrix but transposed, so in order to get
the same element given a column and row for a matrix as if it would
be located in Cogl, it is necessary to swap the row and column when
retrieving it from the graphene matrix.

Turns out inverting a matrix was the largest chunk of the CoglMatrix
code. By switching to Graphene, a lot of it can go away. The inverse
is still cached in the CoglMatrix struct itself, to preserve the
optimization.
However, switching to graphene_matrix_t to calculate the inverse has
a challenge: float precision. We had to work around it here, and it
needs an explanation.
The way to detect whether a matrix is invertible or not (i.e.
whether it's not a "singular" matrix, or not) is by checking
if the determinant equals 0. So far, so good.
Both graphene_matrix_t and CoglMatrix use single-precision
floats to store their 4x4 matrices. Graphene uses vectorized
operations to optimize determinant calculation, while Cogl
tries to keep track of the matrix type and has special-purpose
determinant functions for different matrix types (the most
common one being a 3D matrix).
Cogl, however, has a fundamentally flawed check for whether
the matrix is invertible or not. Have a look:
```
float det;
…
if (det*det < 1e-25)
return FALSE;
```
Notice that 1e-25 is *way* smaller than FLT_EPSILON. This
check is fundamentally flawed.
"In practice, what does it break?", the reader might ask.
Well, in this case, the answer is opposite of that: Cogl
inverts matrices that should not be invertible. Let's see
an example: the model-view-projection of a 4K monitor. It
looks like this:
```
| +0,002693 +0,000000 +0,000000 +0,000000 |
| +0,000000 -0,002693 +0,000000 +0,000000 |
| +0,000000 +0,000000 +0,002693 +0,000000 |
| -5,169809 +2,908017 -5,036834 +1,000000 |
```
The determinant of this matrix is -0.000000019530306557.
It evidently is smaller than FLT_EPSILON. In this situation,
Cogl would happily calculate the inverse matrix, whereas
Graphene (correctly) bails out and thinks it's a singular
matrix.
This commit works around that by exploiting the maths around
it. The basis of it is:
inverse(scalar * M) = (1/scalar) * M'
which can be extrapolated to:
inverse(M) = scalar * inverse(scalar * M) = M'
In other words, scaling the to-be-inversed matrix, then
scaling the inverse matrix by the same factor, gives us
the desired inverse. In this commit, the scale is calculated
as 1 / (smallest value in the diagonal).
I'm sorry for everyone that has to read through this :(

Next commits, and this patchset in general, will make this patchset
obsolete, since it'll only test graphene types against each other.
If at all useful, the Euler test should be moved to graphene.
