During animation or other things that cause multiple frames in a row being painted, we might skip recording frames if the max framerate is reached. Doing so means we might end up skipping the last frame in a series, ending with the last frame we sent was not the last one, making things appear to get stuck sometimes. Handle this by creating a timeout if we ever throttle, and at the time the timeout callback is triggered, make sure we eventually send an up to date frame. This is handle differently depending on the source type. A monitor source type reports 1x1 pixel damage on each view its monitor overlaps, while a window source type simply records a frame from the surface directly, except without recording a timestamp, so that timestamps always refer to when damage actually happened. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1361 |

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.
Contributing
To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter.
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.
