In the case of indirect rendering like the first frame to use mutter's background wallpaper: Texture_A -> FBO_B (Texture_B) -> FBO_C (screen) we would be trying to render the contents of both FBO_B and FBO_C in the same flush, before the contents of Texture_A had made it to FBO_B. So when FBO_C wants to use mipmaps of Texture_B they didn't exist yet and appeared all black. And the blackness would remain for subsequent frames as cogl has now decided the mipmaps of FBO_B are no longer "dirty" and don't need refreshing: FBO_B (Texture_B) (mipmaps_dirty==FALSE but black) -> FBO_C (screen) We must flush FBO_B before referencing Texture_B for use in rendering FBO_C. This only happens when Texture_A changes (e.g. when the user changes their background wallpaper) so there's no ongoing performance penalty from this flush. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1347 |

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

The coding style used is primarily the GNU flavor of the GNOME coding
style
with some minor additions such as preferring stdint.h types over GLib
fundamental types, and a soft 80 character line limit. However, in general,
look at the file you're editing for inspiration.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. We require an URL to either an issue or a merge request in each commit.
