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.
