When we change the privacy screen, we added a result listener to the KMS update object to notify the upper layer about the privacy screen state change. This was slightly awkward as one might have changed the state multiple times for a single update, thus it was necessary to remove any old result listeners to an update before adding a new one. Doing this will not be possible when updates are fully async and managed by the KMS impl device. To handle this, instead make the post-commit prediction notify about changes that happens in response to a successfully committed update. We already predicted the new privacy screen state, so the necessary change was to plumb the actual change into a callback which emits the signal if there actually was a privacy screen change. This will then be communicated via the same signal listener that already listens to the 'resources-changed' signal. Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2340> |

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.

Git messages
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. We require an URL
to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix
commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as compositor:
or
clutter/actor:
, and it's always better to write too much in the commit
message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main
. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
