This new API allows buffer implementations to know when a user is
actively accessing the buffer's underlying storage. This is
important for the upcoming client-backed wlr_buffer implementation.
Prior to this commit, subsurfaces could only be placed above their
parent. Any place_{above,below} request involving the parent would
fail with a protocol error.
However the Wayland protocol allows using the parent surface in the
place_{above,below} requests, and allows subsurfaces to be placed
below their parent.
Weston's implementation adds a dummy wl_list node in the subsurface
list. However this is potentially dangerous: iterating the list
requires making sure the dummy wl_list node is checked for, otherwise
memory corruption will happen.
Instead, split the list in two: one for subsurfaces above the parent,
the other for subsurfaces below.
Tested with wleird's subsurfaces demo client.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/1865
There isn't always a good time to prune old tokens. Compositors
which only implement a "give focus on activation" logic can prune
tokens on focus change. However other compositors might want to
implement other semantics, e.g. "mark urgent on activation". In this
case a focus change shouldn't invalidate other tokens.
Additionally, some tokens aren't necessarily tied to a seat.
To avoid ending up with an ever-growing list of tokens, add a timeout.
Instead of passing a wlr_texture to the backend, directly pass a
wlr_buffer. Use get_cursor_size and get_cursor_formats to create
a wlr_buffer that can be used as a cursor.
We don't want to pass a wlr_texture because we want to remove as
many rendering bits from the backend as possible.
This allows compositors to choose a wlr_buffer to render to. This
is a less awkward interface than having to call bind_buffer() before
and after begin() and end().
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2618
This allows users to know the capabilities of the buffers that
will be allocated. The buffer capability is important to
know when negotiating buffer formats.
This property is present on all modern X11 instances. The nonpresence of
it requires applications to fall back to XQueryTree-based logic to
determine stacking logic (e.g., to determine what surface should get
Xdnd events).
These code paths are effectively untested nowadays, so this makes it
more likely for wlroots to "break" applications. For instance, the
XQueryTree fallback path has been broken in Chromium for the last 10
years.
It's easy enough to maintain this property, so let's just do it.
Fixes#2889.
When importing a DMA-BUF wlr_buffer as a wlr_texture, the GLES2
renderer caches the result, in case the buffer is used for texturing
again in the future. When the wlr_texture is destroyed by the caller,
the wlr_buffer is unref'ed, but the wlr_gles2_texture is kept around.
This is fine because wlr_gles2_texture listens for wlr_buffer's destroy
event to avoid any use-after-free.
However, with this logic wlr_texture_destroy doesn't "really" destroy
the wlr_gles2_texture. It just decrements the wlr_buffer ref'count.
Each wlr_texture_destroy call must have a matching prior
wlr_texture_create_from_buffer call or the ref'counting will go south.
Wehn destroying the renderer, we don't want to decrement any wlr_buffer
ref'count. Instead, we want to go through any cached wlr_gles2_texture
and destroy our GL state. So instead of calling wlr_texture_destroy, we
need to call our internal gles2_texture_destroy function.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2941
Instead of managing our own renderer and allocator, let the common
code do it.
Because wlr_headless_backend_create_with_renderer needs to re-use
the parent renderer, we have to hand-roll some of the renderer
initialization.
This new functions cleans up the common backend state. While this
currently only emits the destroy signal, this will also clean up
the renderer and allocator in upcoming patches.
Make it so wlr_gles2_texture is ref'counted (via wlr_buffer). This
is similar to wlr_gles2_buffer or wlr_drm_fb work.
When creating a wlr_texture from a wlr_buffer, first check if we
already have a texture for the buffer. If so, increase the
wlr_buffer ref'count and make sure any changes made by an external
process are made visible (by invalidating the texture).
When destroying a wlr_texture created from a wlr_buffer, decrease
the ref'count, but keep the wlr_texture around in case the caller
uses it again. When the wlr_buffer is destroyed, cleanup the
wlr_texture.
This adds a a function to create a wlr_texture from a wlr_buffer.
The main motivation for this is to allow the renderer to create a
single wlr_texture per wlr_buffer. This can avoid needless imports
by re-using existing textures.
Backend-initiated mode changes can use this function instead of
going through drm_connector_set_mode. drm_connector_set_mode becomes
a mere drm_connector_commit_state helper.
Replace it with a new drm_connector_state_is_modeset function that
decides whether a modeset is necessary directly from the
wlr_output_state which is going to be applied.
Stop assuming that the state to be applied is in output->pending in
crtc_commit. This will allow us to remove ephemeral fields in
wlr_drm_crtc, which are used scratch fields to stash temporary
per-commit data.
This function is only required because the DRM backend still needs
to perform multi-GPU magic under-the-hood. Remove the wlr_ prefix
to make it clear it's not a candidate for being made public.
`_NET_WM_PID` is unreliable: it is optional and even if set it may
contain PIDs from sandbox namespaces or remote systems.
Prefer XRes v1.2 QueryClientIds method which returns PIDs as seen by the
Xwayland server.
Previously, the same struct was used for linux-dmabuf-v1 params
and buffer. This made the whole logic a little bit awkward, because
a wlr_dmabuf_v1_buffer could either be still being constructed, or
be a complete buffer.
Introduce a separate wlr_linux_buffer_params_v1 struct for buffer
params still being constructed. Once the params are complete (ie.
once the create request is sent), the params struct is destroyed
and the buffer struct is created.
This will help with [1] as well.
[1]: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2664
Drop wlr_dmabuf_v1_buffer_from_params_resource and
wlr_linux_dmabuf_v1_from_resource. Contrary to wl_buffer, these
resources are internal linux-dmabuf-v1 implementation details and
should not be shared with other interfaces.
It allocates in local main memory via shm_open, and provides a FD
to allow sharing with other processes.
This is suitable for software rendering under the Wayland and X11
backends.
libseat provides all session functionality, so there is no longer need
for a session backend abstraction. The libseat device ID, seat handle
and event loop handle are moved to the main wlr_session and wlr_device
structs.
The get_drm_fd was made available in an internal header with a53ab146f. Move it
now to the public header so consumers opting in to the unstable interfaces can
make use of it.
Use 128-bit hexadecimal string tokens generated with /dev/urandom
instead of UUIDs for xdg-foreign handles, removing the libuuid
dependency. Update readme and CI. Closes#2830.
build: remove xdg-foreign feature
With no external dependencies required, there's no reason not to always
build it. Remove WLR_HAS_XDG_FOREIGN as well.
wlroots' dependency on this library doesn't change the features
exposed to compositors. It's purely a wlroots implementation detail.
Thus downstream compositors shouldn't really care about it.
Introduce an "internal_features" dictionary to store the status of
such internal dependencies.
This fixes the following warning:
WARNING: Project targeting '>=0.56.0' but tried to use feature deprecated since '0.56.0': Dependency.get_pkgconfig_variable. use Dependency.get_variable(pkgconfig : ...) instead
To unify the code style of the project, absolute paths have been used in
some places, such as '#include "render/allocator.h"' in
"render/gbm_allocator.h". Except for include the wayland protocol
headers should be consistent.
This dependency is already required by many other widely used X11
programs, such as i3, Qt, and other XWMs. So it should be available
on most systems.
X11 support can be pretty broken without xcb-icccm, with focus issues
for instance. Let's just remove this --please-break-my-desktop footgun
option.
Compute only the transform matrix in the output. The projection matrix
will be calculated inside the gles2 renderer when we start rendering.
The goal is to help the pixman rendering process.
Instead of walking PATH like a previous proposal [1], this one
checks that the Xwayland path specified in the pkg-config file
exists.
I think this is a reasonable compromise:
- Users that don't have Xwayland installed system-wide won't get
a bogus DISPLAY env variable set up.
- Users that have WLR_XWAYLAND set won't be affected by this check.
- Users that have Xwayland installed system-wide and a different
Xwayland in their PATH still get their custom Xwayland.
- Users that don't have Xwayland installed system-wide but have it
somewhere else in PATH are left out. But this is pretty niche,
and they can just set WLR_XWAYLAND.

Previously, the clipboard and primary selections shared the same window.
This was racey, and could have led to pasting failures.
On xfixes selection owner change notification, the logic for requesting
the supported mimetypes of the new owner's selection looks like:
xcb_convert_selection(
xwm->xcb_conn,
selection->window,
selection->atom,
xwm->atoms[TARGETS],
xwm->atoms[WL_SELECTION],
selection->timestamp
);
This means ask the selection owner to write its TARGETS for the
`selection->atom` selection (one of PRIMARY, CLIPBOARD, DND_SELECTION)
to `selection->window`'s WL_SELECTION atom.
However, `selection->window` is shared for both PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD
selections, and WL_SELECTION is used as the target atom in both cases.
So, there's a race when both selections change at the same time.
The CLIPBOARD selection might support mimetypes {A, B, C}, and the
PRIMARY only {A, B}. If the ConvertSelection requests/responses "cross
on the wire", so to speak, wlroots can end up believing that the PRIMARY
selection also supports C.
A Wayland client may then ask for the PRIMARY selection in C format,
which will fail with "convert selection failed".
This commit fixes this by using a separate window for PRIMARY and
CLIPBOARD target requests, so that WL_SELECTION can be used as the
target atom in both cases.
This commit introduces logic for using a new X11 window for each
incoming transfer, rather than having a global window for each selection
source.
This eliminates a whole class of bugs involving multiple concurrent
incoming transfers.
For now, we retain the outgoing transfer queue, and the selection
source-specific windows to support it. Source-specific windows are no
longer used in the incoming path, and will be removed in a future PR.
Refs #1497.
Previously, Xwayland could restart, and we'd get events for transfers
pointing to the previous (now freed) xwm instance. This led to
use-after-free segfaults.
Closes#2565.
Apart from reducing duplication, this has the positive side-effect of
allowing all deallocs to use
`xwm_selection_transfer_destroy_property_reply`, as opposed to the
latter and a mix of ad-hoc `free`s.
Previously, wlr_xwm_selection_transfer.source_fd meant:
- the source of data in a Wayland -> X11 copy (good)
- the destination of data in a X11 -> Wayland copy (confusing)
This made reading through xwayland/selection/incoming.c difficult: in
many places, "source" actually means "destination".
When we receive an Expose event, that means that we must redraw that
region of the X11 window. Keep track of these regions with pixman
regions, and merge them with the additional output damaged regions.
Fixes#2670
In certain situations windows can have their input field set to false
but still expect to receive input focus by passively listening to key
presses via a parent window. The ICCCM specification outlines how focus
should be given to clients.
Further reading: https://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.7
Relates to #2604
This actually simplifies the logic since we no longer have to wait for
enter/leave events, and also improves the UX when e.g. handling a crash
with gdb attached.
See #2659
This allows a compositor to get a KMS connector object ID from a
wlr_output. The compositor can then query more information about
the connector via libdrm.
This gives more freedom to compositors and allows them to read
KMS properties that wlroots doesn't know about. For instance,
they could read the EDID or the suggested_{X,Y} properties and
change their output configuration based on that.
The subconnector property indicates the connector sub-type. This is
useful because that usually indicates what kind of connector the user
has plugged in to their monitor, e.g. a DisplayPort-to-DVI cable will
indicate a DVI subconnector. Also some laptops have non-DP connectors
that are internally linked to a DP port on the GPU.
Set the output description accordingly.
See https://drmdb.emersion.fr/properties/3233857728/subconnector
Value is now an enum with a new value ("on-demand") that compositors can use to allow "normal" keyboard focus semantics regardless of the layer the client surface is on. An error is sent for invalid keyboard interactivity values. The old behavior is retained for clients using the previous version of the protocol.
Also adjusted the layer-shell example program to use the new keyboard interactivity options.
This function is inferior to wlr_xdg_surface_for_each_popup_surface()
for rendering as it does not iterate over subsurfaces. Furthermore,
no compositor is known to use this to iterate popups for any purpose
other than rendering. Therefore remove the function, which may of course
be reintroduced at a later date if a use-case is found.
Stop keeping track of buffers on the parent GPU when multi-GPU is used.
This removes support for export_dmabuf on secondary GPUs, but renderer
v6 will bring this back by managing the swapchains in wlr_output instead
of the backends.
This function will allow compositors to implement input handling in a
way consistent with rendering more easily.
Calling wlr_layer_surface_v1_surface_at() and checking if the result is
a wlr_xdg_popup is flawed as there may be subsurfaces in the popup tree.

Calling wlr_xdg_surface_surface_at() and checking if the result is a

Sometimes wlr_session_find_gpus will encounter an error. This is
different from finding zero GPUs.
On error, wlr_session_find_gpus already returns -1. However, this is
casted to size_t, so callers uncorrectly assume this is a success.
Instead, make wlr_session_find_gpus return a ssize_t and allow callers
to handle the error accordingly.
wlr_drm_connector.crtc may be updated by the DRM backend while a
page-flip is pending. In this case, the page-flip handler won't be able
to find the right wlr_drm_connector from the CRTC ID.
Save the CRTC when performing a page-flip to ensure we always find the
right connector when we get the event.
This callback allowed compositors to customize the EGL config used by
the renderer. However with renderer v6 EGL configs aren't used anymore.
Instead, buffers are allocated via GBM and GL FBOs are rendered to. So
customizing the EGL config is a no-op.
We now properly mark the cursor plane's formats as linear-only, and we
now have a version of wlr_drm_format_intersect that handles the case of
linear-only formats and implicit modifiers.
We can remove the special drm_plane_init_surface flag we had for cursor
planes. This also allows us to use a non-linear layout for cursor planes
on drivers that support it.
Tested on amdgpu GFX9.
The Present protocol states:
> An event context is associated with a specific window; using an existing
> event context with a different window generates a Match error.
Instead of a global event context, use a per-window event context to fix
this error:
[backend/x11/backend.c:608] X11 error: op Present (SelectInput), code Match (no extension), sequence 63, value 4194307

Instead of using a timer, rely on X11 Present events and send a new
frame event when the parent compositor displays a new frame on screen.
The previous attempt at doing this [1] hit issues with EGLSurface, but
we don't use that anymore.

The DRM backend is a little special when it comes to wlr_outputs: the
wlr_drm_connectors are long-lived and are created even when no screen is
connected.
A wlr_drm_connector only advertises a wlr_output to the compositor when
a screen is connected. As such, most of wlr_output's state is invalid
when the connector is disconnected.
We want to stop using wlr_output state on disconnected connectors.
Introduce wlr_drm_connector.name which is always valid regardless of the
connector status to avoid reading wlr_output.name when disconnected.
Simplify and unify connector-specific logging with a new
wlr_drm_conn_log macro. This makes it easier to understand which
connector a failure is about, without having to explicitly integrate the
connector name in each log message.
gbm_bo_create_with_modifiers doesn't take GBM flags, so our
wlr_gbm_allocator interface doesn't either. We were still internally
using GBM flags in the DRM backend, leading to awkward back-and-forth
conversions.
The only flag passed to drm_plane_init_surface was GBM_BO_USE_LINEAR, so
turn that into a bool to make sure other flags can't be passed in.
Move the "force linear" logic out of init_drm_surface, because the
supplied wlr_drm_format should already contain that information.
Rename wlr_renderer_get_dmabuf_formats to
wlr_renderer_get_dmabuf_texture_formats. This makes it clear the formats
are only suitable for creating wlr_textures.
wlr_surface_send_enter now stores outputs that have been entered.
Combined with a new 'bind' event on wlr_output, this allows us to delay
enter events as necessary until the respective wl_output global has been
bound.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2466
Wait for a DRM device if none is found in wlr_session_find_gpus. This
can happen if the compositor is loaded before the display kernel driver.
This supersedes the logind CanGraphical property.

rmmod -f i915

modprobe i915

Instead of operating on FDs in {open,close}_device, operate on
wlr_devices. This avoids the device lookup in wlr_session and allows
callers to have access to wlr_device fields.
For now, we use it to remove wlr_session_signal_add and replace it with
a more idiomatic wlr_session.events.change field. In the future, other
events will be added.
The swapchain maximum capacity is set to 4, so that we have enough room
for:
- A buffer currently displayed on screen
- A buffer queued for display (e.g. to KMS)
- A pending buffer that'll be queued next commit
- An additional pending buffer in case we want to invalidate the
currently pending one
Every host seat with pointer capability propagates events to one of
sub-pointer depending which output window we entered.
active_pointer tracks reference to sub-pointer on enter/leave events to
avoid lookup for it on every move events.
Fixesswaywm/wlroots#1499
We were previously exporting DMA-BUFs when receiving the capture_output
request, and sending a done event on wlr_output.events.precommit. Instead,
export and send done on wlr_output.events.commit.
The resource field of wlr_xdg_positioner is never initialized or
accessed within wlroots. The wl_resource for this interface is stored
in the wlr_xdg_positioner_resource struct.
This brings the layer-shell api in line with that of xdg-shell and
avoids reimplementing this function in every compositor in order to
render layer shell popups correctly.
This type is meant to be 4 bytes large as seen in _XcursorReadUInt which
always reads 4 bytes. An unsigned int is often 4 bytes large but this
isnt' guaranteed so it is cleaner to use the exact type we want.
This event contains a `committed` bitfield, which allows callers to know
which output fields changed during the commit.
This allows users to setup a single atomic commit listener, instead of
setting up one listener for each event (mode, scale, transform, and so
on).

These states are distinct in the time period between the ack_configure
and the next commit on the surface. Splitting these states avoids the
following race for example:
- client starts at 1000x1000
- wlr_xdg_toplevel_set_size 500x500
- size is different -> configure sent
- client acks the configure
- wlr_xdg_toplevel_set_size 1000x1000
- compare_xdg_toplevel_state returns true since there is no pending
configure and the currently committed size is still 1000x1000
- no new configure is sent
- client commits at the size it last acked, 500x500
Certain clients require this property to be set for expected behavior.
Most notably, steam client CSD maximize button no longer worked
after unmaximizing once, unless the state was changed by another
method. The state is unset whenever another surface gains focus.
The output backend API is now mostly state-less thanks to the atomic
hooks (commit and test). There is one exception though: attach_render.
This function makes the rendering context current. However sometimes the
compositor might decide not to render after attach_render (e.g. when
there's nothing new to render to the back buffer). Thus
wlr_output_rollback has been introduced to revert the pending state.
Because the output backend API is mostly state-less, the only thing
wlr_output_impl.rollback needs to do is revert the current rendering
context. Rename the function to rollback_render to make this clear. Add
a check in the common wlr_output code to only call rollback_render when
attach_buffer has been previously called.
On the long term, we'll be able to remove attach_render and
rollback_render together.
This commit makes `get_current_time_msec` correctly return milliseconds
as opposed to microseconds. It also considers the value of `tv_sec`, so
we don't lose occasionally go back in time by one second. Finally, the
function is moved into `util/time.cc` so that it can be reused elsewhere
without having to consider these pitfalls.
This is necessary for some grabs, which currently have no way of knowing
when the pointer/keyboard focus has left a surface. For example, without
this, a drag-and-drop grab can erroneously drop into a window that the
cursor is no longer over.
This is the plumbing needed to properly fix swaywm/sway#5220. The
existing fix, swaywm/sway#5222, relies on every grab's `enter()` hook
allowing a `NULL` surface. This is not guaranteed by the API and, in
fact, is not the case for the xdg-shell popup grab and results in a
crash when the cursor leaves a surface and does not immediately enter
another one while a popup is open (#2161).
This fix also adds an assertion to wlr_seat_pointer_notify_enter() that
ensures it's never called with a `NULL` surface. This will make Sway
crash much more until it fixes its usage of the API, so we should land
this at the same time as a fix in Sway (which I haven't posted yet).
I found the previous wording a bit confusing when I first read it.
Reword these comments to explicitly say that the grab-respecting
variants should be used in most cases.
This change has no functional effect.
These three APIs are very similar to one another, but they all had
slightly different function orderings. For consistency, always declare
the non_`notify` functions first, then the `notify` functions, then
`{start,end,has}_grab`.
This change has no functional effect.
This introduces the enter and leave events for wlr_keyboard_group.
The enter event is emitted when a keyboard is added to the group while a
key is pressed that is not pressed by any other keyboard in the group.
The data is a wl_array of the pressed key codes unique to the keyboard
that should now be considered pressed.
Similarly the leave event is emitted when a keyboard is removed from the
group while at least one key is pressed that is not pressed by any other
keyboard in the group. The data is a wl_array of the pressed key codes
unique to the keyboard that should now be considered released.
The purpose of these events are to allow the compositor to update its
state to avoid corruption. Additionally, for the leave event, the
focused surface may have been notified of a key press for some or all of
the key codes and needs to be notified of a key release to avoid state
corruption.
These were previously emitted as normal key events, but they are not
normal key events. There is no actual key press or release associated
with the events. It's purely for state keeping purposes. Emitting them
as separate events allows the compositor to handle them differently.
Since these are purely for state keeping purposes and are not associated
with an actual key being pressed or released, bindings should not be
triggered as a result of these events.
We should throw a protocol error if the relevant capability has never
existed when get_(pointer|keyboard|touch) is called. Otherwise, it
should succeed, even if the capability is not currently present.
This follows the spec, and avoids possible races with the client when
capabilities are lost.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2227
Previously, we only had the pending state (crtc->pending, crtc->mode and
crtc->active). This causes issues when a commit fails: the pending state
is left as-is, and the next commit may read stale data from it.
This will also cause issues when implementing test-only commits: we need
to rollback the pending CRTC state after a test-only commit.
Introduce separate pending and current CRTC states. Properly update the
current state after a commit.
retry_pageflip is now dead code, since drm_connector_start_renderer
isn't called anymore. It was previously called when enabling an output.
The name "retry_pageflip" was a little confusing because the function
retried a modeset and the timer wasn't set up while performing a simple
page-flip.
Let's just remove this altogether for now. We can discuss whether it's
worth it to bring it back. Should we only do it on failed page-flips?
Should we only do it on EBUSY?
This function can be called after wlr_egl_make_current to cleanup the
EGL context. This avoids having lingering EGL contexts that make things
work by chance.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2197
This is currently inconsistent with the rest of the library and a bit of
a footgun for new compositors. However, this breaks the API in a very
unfortunate way for existing compositors.
This is necessary so that sway can determine when to start emulating
pointer events -- it shouldn't start doing so during an implicit grab,
even if the pen is over a surface that doesn't bind tablet input.
Refs swaywm/sway#5302.
This patch will make the EGL renderer work on any EGL/GLESv2 driver
providing the EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display extensions.
Mesa used to declare provisional EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display directly
in <EGL/eglext.h>. Then, all unofficial extensions were moved to
<EGL/eglmesaext.h>, to have a cleaner implementation. See:
ab7bb10a2a
The extension was then approved at Khronos Group, and reached the
official <EGL/eglext.h>. See:
https://www.khronos.org/registry/EGL/extensions/WL/EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display.txtaa9b63f3ab
In order to make sure the renderer will work on any version of any
implementation providing the extension, only include the mesa-specific
header if it's present.

We don't need a per-CRTC atomic request anymore. Let's make the request
per-commit so that it's easier to debug.
This is also groundwork for supporting wlr_output_test properly.
GAMMA_LUT_SIZE isn't an atomic property. It can be used with the legacy
interface too. So we can unify both codepaths and remove
wlr_drm_interface.crtc_get_gamma_size.
It's no guaranteed to exist though, so we still need to keep the
fallback.
When the headless backend uses an already-existing renderer, it doesn't
have ownership over the renderer. When the renderer is destroyed, the
headless backend needs to destroy itself.
Instead of requiring compositors to call wlr_texture_get_size each time
they want to access the texture's size, expose this information as
wlr_texture fields.
This is a type which manages gbm_surfaces and imported dmabufs in the
same place, and makes the lifetime management between the two shared. It
should lead to easier to understand code, and fewer special cases.
This also contains a fair bit of refactoring to start using this new
type.

Most of the pending output state is not forwarded to the backend prior
to an output commit. For instance, wlr_output_set_mode just stashes the
mode without calling any wlr_output_impl function.
wlr_output_impl.commit is responsible for applying the pending mode.
However, there are exceptions to this rule. The first one is
wlr_output_attach_render. It won't go away before renderer v6 is
complete, because it needs to set the current EGL surface.
The second one is wlr_output_attach_buffer.
wlr_output_impl.attach_buffer is removed in [1].
When wlr_output_rollback is called, all pending state is supposed to be
cleared. This works for all the state except the two exceptions
mentionned above. To fix this, introduce wlr_output_impl.rollback.
Right now, the backend resets the current EGL surface. This prevents GL
commands from affecting the output after wlr_output_rollback.
This patch is required for FBO-based outputs to work properly. The
compositor might be using FBOs for its own purposes [2], having leftover
FBO state can have bad consequences.

Check that buffer can be scanned out in wlr_output_test instead of
wlr_output_attach_buffer. This allows the backend to have access to the
whole pending state when performing the check.
This brings the wlr_output API more in line with the KMS API.
This removes the need for wlr_output_attach_buffer to return a value,
and for wlr_output_impl.attach_buffer.
Consumers call wlr_buffer_lock. Once all consumers are done with the
buffer, only the producer should have a reference to the buffer. In this
case, we can release the buffer (and let the producer re-use it).
This makes it easier for the user of this library to properly handle
failure of this function.
The signature of wlr_renderer_impl.init_wl_display was also modified to
allow for proper error propagation.
This patch disambiguates the needs_frame event by uncoupling it from
damage. A new separate damage event is emitted when the backend damages
the output (this happens e.g. VT is changed or software cursors are
used). The event specifies the damaged region.
The wlr_output.damage field is removed. wlr_output is no longer
responsible for tracking its own damage, this is wlr_output_damage's
job.
This is a breaking change, but wlr_output_damage users shouldn't need an
update.
Bugs fixed:
- Screen flashes on VT switch
- Cursor damage issues on the X11 and headless backends

Previously, some atoms had a leading underscore, others didn't. Be more
consistent and never use a leading underscore (symbols with a leading
underscore followed by an upper-case letter are reserved).
Split out the client/resource handling out of wlr_buffer by introducing
wlr_client_buffer. Make wlr_buffer an interface so that compositors can
create their own wlr_buffers (e.g. backed by GBM, like glider [1]).

This function allowed backends to provide a custom function for frame
scheduling. Before resuming the rendering loop, the DRM and Wayland
backends would wait for vsync.
There isn't a clear benefit of doing this. The only upside is that we
get more stable timings: the delay between two repaints doesn't change too
much and is close to a mutliple of the refresh rate.
However this introduces latency, especially when a client misses a
frame. For instance a fullscreen game missing vblank will need to wait
more than a whole frame before being able to display new content. This
worst case scenario happens as follows:
- Client is still rendering its frame and cannot submit it in time
- Deadline is reached
- Compositor decides to stop the rendering loop since nothing changed on
screen
- Client finally manages to render its frame, submits it
- Compositor calls wlr_output_schedule_frame
- DRM backend waits for next vblank
- The wlr_output frame event is fired, compositor draws new content on screen
- On the second next vblank, the new content reaches the screen
With this patch, the wlr_output frame event is fired immediately when
the client submits its late frame.
This change also makes it easier to support variable refresh rate, since
VRR is all about being able to present too-late frames earlier.

The keyboard shortcuts inhibitor protocol is useful for remote desktop
and virtualization software in order to request all keyboard events to
be passed to it and (almost) none being resonded to by the compositor.
This allows the session at the other end of the remote desktop
connection or inside the virtual machine to be interacted with as usual
(e.g. Alt+Tab to switch windows on the remote system instead of
locally).
Add the wayland protocol to the meson build files.
Copy'n'search'n'replace the very similar idle inhibit protocol
implementation. This already provides all the basic functionality:
- creating and destroying inhibitors upon request by a client,
- destruction in reaction to destruction of surfaces or displays,
- a list of inhibitors to search through for existing ones as well as
- a signal to be sent to the compositor upon registration of a new
inhibitor.
Beyond that we add the active and inactive events to be sent to the
client and wire those to activate and deactivate functions for the
compositor to call in confirmation of activation of a new inhibitor or
(un-)suspending of an existing inhibitor e.g. in response to a special
key combination entered by the user as suggested by the protocol.
As mandated by the protocol, we check the existance of an inhibitor for
a given surface and seat upon creation and return the error provided by
the protocol for that purpose.

Previously, if the current configuration contains an output X which is
destroyed, its head is automatically removed. If the compositor submits
the new configuration after X was removed, the current output
configuration is incorrectly detected to be the same as the previous
one, and no done event is sent. To prevent this, we can just keep track
of whether the current configuration is dirty, i.e whether we have sent
a done event for it.
Previously, we just assumed submitting a new frame would make the
compositor release the current one. This isn't always the case, for
instance Sway retains old buffers when a transaction is pending. This
resulted in synchronization issues with clients writing in
front-buffers.
Fix this by un-referencing a wlr_buffer when the parent compositor sends
wl_buffer.release.
Tested by running a fullscreen mpv instance in Sway with the Wayland
backend.
Add a wlr_renderer.rendering bool, set it to true between
wlr_renderer_begin() and wlr_renderer_end(). Assert we're rendering when
calling functions that render.
Since [1], the xdg-output description is mutable. Listen to output
description changes and send the new output description when updated.
[1]: 048102f21a
wlr_output.description is a string containing a human-readable string
identifying the output. Compositors can customise it via
wlr_output_set_description, for instance to make the name more
user-friendly.

Bumps minimum version to 0.51.0
- Remove all intermediate static libraries.
They serve no purpose and are just add a bunch of boilerplate for
managing dependencies and options. It's now managed as a list of
files which are compiled into libwlroots directly.
- Use install_subdir instead of installing headers individually.
I've changed my mind since I did that. Listing them out is annoying as
hell, and it's easy to forget to do it.
- Add not_found_message for all of our optional dependencies that have a
meson option. It gives some hints about what option to pass and what
the optional dependency is for.
- Move all backend subdirectories into their own meson.build. This
keeps some of the backend-specific build logic (especially rdp and
session) more neatly separated off.
- Don't overlink example clients with code they're not using.
This was done by merging the protocol dictionaries and setting some
variables containing the code and client header file.
Example clients now explicitly mention what extension protocols they
want to link to.
- Split compositor example logic from client example logic.
- Minor formatting changes
Remove glapi.sh code generation, replace it with hand-written loading
code that checks extension strings before calling eglGetProcAddress.
The GLES2 renderer still uses global state because of:
- {PUSH,POP}_GLES2_DEBUG macros
- wlr_gles2_texture_from_* taking a wlr_egl instead of the renderer

Some globals are static and it doesn't make sense to destroy them before
the wl_display. For instance, wl_compositor should be created before the
display is started and shouldn't be destroyed.
For these globals, we can simplify the code by removing the destructor
and stop keeping track of wl_resources (these will be destroyed with the
wl_display by libwayland).
Most of the time, compositors just display the surface's current buffer
on an output. Add an helper to make it easy to support presentation-time
in this case.
The wlr_presentation_feedback struct now tracks presentation feedback
for multiple resources (but still a single surface content update). This
allows the compositor to properly send presentation events even when
there is more than one frame of latency or when it references a
surface's buffer.
This requires functions without a prototype definition to be static.
This allows to detect dead code, export less symbols and put shared
functions in headers.
This reverts commit 3317134adf.
This reverts commit a3c3b928a3.
There are some serious issues when running this on a real X server, as
opposed to running this on Xwayland, where this was tested.
More investigation needs to be done into why these issues happen and if
our usage of the present extension is correct.
This is set to the value of wlr_output.commit_seq when the frame has
been submitted. This allows tracking presentation with more then 1 full
frame of latency.

Expose the remote wl_display, wl_surface and wl_seat used by the Wayland
backend.
This allows compositors to customize the Wayland backend and to have
more freedom. For instance a compositor might want to handle clipboard
and drag-and-drop from the remote Wayland compositor. Another compositor
might want to setup pointer constraints.
We just send relative motion events alongside absolute motion events.
Compositors can figure out how absolute and relative events are related
(e.g. whether they have been triggered by the same logical event) with
the frame event.
Prior to this commit, compositors needed to render the texture to an
intermediate off-screen buffer using wlr_renderer APIs if they wanted to
use a custom rendering path (e.g. render to a 3D scene).
A new wlr_gles2_texture_get_attribs exposes the GL texture target and ID
so that compositors can render wlr_textures with their own shaders. An
example of a compositor doing so is available at [1].
[1]: 3db905b784/src/render.c (L227)
We don't need our own enum for types. Instead we just use
GL_TEXTURE_{2D,EXTERNAL_OES}, which already describes usage.
Also fixes a situation where we were using GL_TEXTURE_2D in a situation
we should not have. wl_drm buffers are always GL_TEXTURE_EXTERNAL_OES,
no matter if they're RGB or any other format.
A wlr_keyboard_group allows for multiple keyboard devices to be
combined into one logical keyboard. Each keyboard device can only be
added to one keyboard group. This helps with the situation where one
physical keyboard is exposed as multiple keyboard devices. It is up to
the compositors on how they group keyboards together, if at all.
Since a wlr_keyboard_group is one logical keyboard, the keys are a set.
This means that if a key is pressed on multiple keyboard devices, the
key event will only be emitted once, but the internal state will count
the number of devices that the key is pressed on. Likewise, the key
release will not be emitted until the key is released from all devices.
If the compositor wants access to which keys are pressed and released
on each keyboard device, the events for those devices can be listened
to, as they currently are, in addition to the group keyboard's events.
Also, all keyboard devices in the group must share the same keymap. If
the keymap's differ, the keyboard device will not be able to be added
to the group. Once in the group, if the keymap or effective layout for
one keyboard device changes, it will be synced to all keyboard devices
in the group. The repeat info and keyboard modifiers are also synced
Makes use of the present extension to get notified of vsync, and not
require any stupid timer hacks. Also make use of the present version of
ConfigureNotify, because why not?
Without this information, compositors have no way to tell whether
or not to consider the position information valid. Most notably,
a compositor needs to know if it should pick a position for the
surface or use the position sent in the configure request.
This allows wlroots based compositors to properly use graphic tablets
with the wayland backend.
This should be a decent quality of life improvement when working on
tablet related features.
Since e26217c51e3a5e1d7dfc95a8a76299e056497981, touchpoints can outlive
surfaces. This works fine as long as the client stays around, but fails
horribly otherwise; therefore we have to make sure that touchpoints don't
outlive their clients.
Fixes#1788
From the xdg-shell specification:
If the parent is unmapped then its children are managed as
though the parent of the now-unmapped parent has become the
parent of this surface. If no parent exists for the now-unmapped
parent then the children are managed as though they have no
parent surface.
Instead of waiting for the next pageflip, destroy the output immediately
since we can now handle flips for outputs which no longer exist.
Also demote the missing crtc on flip to debug.
Fixes#1739
This commit makes more output properties (mode, enabled, scale and transform)
atomic. This means that they are double-buffered and only applied on commit.
Compositors now need to call wlr_output_commit after setting any of those
properties.
Internally, backends still apply properties sequentially. The behaviour should
be exactly the same as before. Future commits will update some backends to take
advantage of the atomic interface. Some backends are non-atomic by design, e.g.
the X11 backend or the legacy DRM backend.
Updates: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/1640
This prevents screencopy applications from hanging because a failed
event never got sent when the output was disconnected or disabled after
the call to buffer().
The documentation for wayland-server.h says:
> Use of this header file is discouraged. Prefer including
> wayland-server-core.h instead, which does not include the server protocol
> header and as such only defines the library PI, excluding the deprecated API
> below.
Replacing wayland-server.h with wayland-server-core.h allows us to drop the
WL_HIDE_DEPRECATED declaration.
AFAIK this was always set to zero. Instead, compute wl_output mode flags on the
fly.
Technically this is a breaking change, but I don't think anybody uses this
field.
This commit matches sway's 2dc4978d8af326c310057ca8fd22a4c7f5d09335.
To help ensure a reproducible build (when debug info is disabled),
the meson build script now uses the -fmacro-prefix-map command line
argument supported by GCC to strip the build-path dependent bytes
of each __FILE__ string used by wlr_log and related functions.
A rather ugly algorithm is used to compute the relative path between
the build and source folders, because meson has no specific function
for this.
When the compiler does not support -fmacro-prefix-map, fall back
to shifting the start of each __FILE__ string by the length of the
relative path to the source directory.
This change tracks, for each wlr_seat_client, the most recent serial
numbers which were sent to the client. When the client makes a
selection request, wlroots now verifies that the serial number
associated with the selection request was actually provided to that
specific client. This ensures that the client that was most
recently interacted with always has priority for its copy selection
requests, and that no other clients can incorrectly use a larger serial
value and "steal" the role of having the copy selection.
Also, the code used to determine when a given selection is superseded
by a newer request uses < instead of <= to allow clients to make
multiple selection requests with the same serial number and have the
last one hold.
To limit memory use, a ring buffer is used to store runs of sequential
serial numbers, and all serial numbers earlier than the start of the
ring buffer are assumed to be valid. Faking very old serials is
unlikely to be disruptive.
Assuming all clients are correctly written, the only additional
constraint which this patch should impose is that serial numbers
are now bound to seats: clients may not receive a serial number
from an input event on one seat and then use that to request
copy-selection on another seat.
The backend doesn't need to handle transform changes, since everything is done
in software. In fact, all of the implementations were all identical and just
set the transform.
We could add support for hardware transforms, but:
- This would require a different field (something like hardware_transform)
- Not all combinations are possible because there often are hardware
limitations
- The Wayland protocol isn't ready for this (in particular xdg-output, see [1])
This belongs to a different patch series anyway.
[1]: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/52324/
In addition to `button_count`, we keep track of the current buttons
pressed just as in `wlr_keyboard`.
Add `set_add` and `set_remove` to assist with this. These functions can
only be used with values greater than 0 (such as the button/key masks
for keyboards and pointers).

This commit introduces wlr_output_schedule_done and refactors the mechanism
used to send wl_output events to clients.
wlr_output_schedule_done schedules a wl_output.done event. This allows clients
to see wlr_output property changes as atomic.
This function is also useful for add-on interfaces like xdg_output which need
to trigger a wl_output.done event to apply their new state.
wlr_output_damage_make_current has been renamed to
wlr_output_damage_attach_render, since it's just a wrapper for
wlr_output_attach_render.
wlr_output_damage_swap_buffers has been removed completely. Instead,
wlr_output_damage now listens to successful wlr_output commits and updates its
internal state accordingly.
This updates the backend part of the output API. This is mostly renaming:
make_current becomes attach_render and swap_buffers becomes commit.
This also fixes the RDP backend to support NULL damage.
This is necessary for direct scan-out and other upcoming features. This patch
changes the output API to look like the wl_surface API.
Outputs now have some double-buffered state: the frame to be submitted
(currently only wlr_renderer frames are supported) and the damaged region.
To attach a pending frame, use wlr_output_attach_render. To set the pending
damaged region, use wlr_output_set_damage.
To submit the pending state, call wlr_output_commit. This will submit the
pending frame to the backend.
To migrate from the old API to the new one:
- Replace wlr_output_make_current calls by wlr_output_attach_render
- Replace wlr_output_swap_buffers calls by wlr_output_set_damage and
wlr_output_commit
The deleted includes are redundant, because other headers will include
the necessary files. Additionally, they cause build failures, because
including EGL/egl.h or EGL/eglext.h directly, instead of through
wlr/render/egl.h or wlr/render/interface.h, will mean that
MESA_EGL_NO_X11_HEADERS will not have been defined, and so the EGL
headers will attempt to pull in unnecessary X11 headers that may not
exist on the system.
For the headers produced by glgen.sh, the includes couldn't simply be
deleted, because no other header would include the EGL headers. Neither
wlr/render/egl.h or wlr/render/interface.h felt appropriate to include,
so I opted instead to copy the MESA_EGL_NO_X11_HEADERS definition before
the EGL includes.

This improves the way the output numbers are handled for the noop
backend. Instead of using the number of active outputs plus one, the
last used number is stored and new outputs will increment it. This
fixes the situation where you start with one output, create a second,
close the first, and create a third. Without this, both outputs will be
NOOP-2, which causes an issue since the identifier will also be
identical. With this, the last output is NOOP-3 and the outputs can be
distinguished.

On DRM resume, such as switching back to a TTY, the output needs to be
modeset to the current mode. However, wlr_output_set_mode will return
early when attempting to set the mode to the current mode. This just
steps around wlr_output_set_mode and calls drm_connector_set_mode
directly.

In order for a surface to be used as a cursor plane framebuffer, it
appears that requiring the buffer to be linear is sufficient.
GBM_BO_USE_SCANOUT is added in case GBM_BO_USE_LINEAR isn't sufficient
on untested hardware.
Fixes#1323
Removed wlr_drm_plane.cursor_bo as it does not serve any purpose
anymore.
Relevant analysis (taken from the PR description):
While trying to implement a fix for #1323, I found that when exporting
the rendered surface into a DMA-BUF and reimporting it with
`GBM_BO_USE_CURSOR`, the resulting object does not appear to be valid.
After some digging (turning on drm-kms debugging and switching to legacy
mode), I managed to extract the following error: ```
[drm:__setplane_check.isra.1 [drm]] Invalid pixel format AR24
little-endian (0x34325241), modifier 0x100000000000001 ``` The format
itself refers to ARGB8888 which is the same format as
`renderer->gbm_format` used in master to create the cursor bo. However,
using `gbm_bo_create` with `GBM_BO_USE_CURSOR` results in a modifier of
0. A modifier of zero represents a linear buffer while the modifier of
the surface that is rendered to is `I915_FORMAT_MOD_X_TILED` (see
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/include/uapi/drm/drm_fourcc.h?h=v4.20.6#n263).
In order to fix this mismatch in modifier, I added the
`GBM_BO_USE_LINEAR` to the render surface and everything started to work
just fine. I wondered however, whether the export and import is really
necessary. I then decided to test if the back buffer of the render
surface works as well, and at least on my hardware (Intel HD 530 and
Intel UHD 620) it does. This is the patch in this PR and this requires
no exporting and importing.
I have to note that I cheated in order to import DMA_BUFs into a cursor
bo when doing the first tests, since on import the Intel drivers check
that the cursor is 64x64. This is strange since cursor sizes other than
64x64 have been around for quite some time now
(https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-commit/2014-June/050268.html).
Removing this check made everything work fine. I later (while writing
this PR) found out that `__DRI_IMAGE_USE_CURSOR` (to which
`GBM_BO_USE_CURSOR` translates) has been deprecated in mesa
(https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/blob/master/include/GL/internal/dri_interface.h#L1296),
which makes me wonder what the usecase of `GBM_BO_USE_CURSOR` is. The
reason we never encountered this is that when specifying
`GBM_BO_USE_WRITE`, a dumb buffer is created trough DRM and the usage
flag never reaches the Intel driver directly. The relevant code is in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/blob/master/src/gbm/backends/dri/gbm_dri.c#L1011-1089
. From this it seems that as long as the size, format and modifiers are
right, any surface can be used as a cursor.
We create the EGL config with GBM_FORMAT_ARGB8888, but then initialize GBM BOs
with GBM_FORMAT_XRGB8888. This mismatch confuses Mesa.
Instead, we can always use GBM_FORMAT_ARGB8888, and use DRM_FORMAT_XRGB8888
when calling drmModeAddFB2.

Frame events group logically connected pointer events. It makes sense to make
the backend responsible for sending frame events, since once the events are
split (ie. once the frame events are stripped) it's not easy to figure out
which events belongs to which frame again.
This is also how Weston handles frame events.

This makes compositors able to block and/or customize set_selection requests
coming from clients. For instance, it's possible for a compositor to disable
rich selection content (by removing all MIME types except text/plain). This
commit implements the design proposed in [1].
Two new events are added to wlr_seat: request_set_selection and
request_set_primary_selection. Compositors need to listen to these events and
either destroy the source or effectively set the selection.

The noop backend is similar to headless, but it doesn't contain a
renderer. It can be used as a place to stash views for when there's no
physical outputs connected.
