We were retrieving the supported KMS modifiers for all GPUs even
though what we really need to intersect between these sets of
modifiers:
1) KMS supported modifiers for primary GPU if the GPU is used for
scanout;
2) EGL supported modifiers for secondary GPUs (different than the
primary GPU used for rendering);
3) GBM supported modifiers when creating the surface (already
taken care of by gbm_surface_create_with_modifiers());
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/18
Now that we have the list of supported modifiers from the monitor
manager (via the CRTCs to the primary planes), we can use this to inform
EGL it can use those modifiers to allocate the GBM surface with. Doing
so allows us to use tiling and compression for our scanout surfaces.
This requires the Mesa commit in:
Mesa 10.3 (08264e5dad4df448e7718e782ad9077902089a07) or
Mesa 10.2.7 (55d28925e6109a4afd61f109e845a8a51bd17652).
Otherwise Mesa closes the fd behind our back and re-importing will fail.
See FDO bug #76188 for details.

Some x86 clamshell design devices use portrait tablet LCD panels while
they should use a landscape panel, resoluting in a 90 degree rotated
picture.
Newer kernels detect this and rotate the fb console in software to
compensate. These kernels also export their knowledge of the LCD panel
orientation vs the casing in a "panel orientation" drm_connector property.
This commit adds support to mutter for reading the "panel orientation"
and transparently (from a mutter consumer's pov) fixing this by applying
a (hidden) rotation transform to compensate for the panel orientation.

A hybrid GPU system is a system where more than one GPU is connected to
connectors. A common configuration is having a integrated GPU (iGPU)
connected to a laptop panel, and a dedicated GPU (dGPU) connected to
one or more external connector (such as HDMI).
This commit adds support for rendering the compositor stage using the
iGPU, then copying the framebuffer content onto a secondary framebuffer
that will be page flipped on the CRTC of the dGPU.
This can work in two different ways: GPU accelerated using Open GL ES
3, or CPU unaccelerated.
When supported, GPU accelerated copying works by exporting the iGPU
onscreen framebuffer as a DMA-BUF, importing it as a texture on a
separate dGPU EGL context, then using glBlitFramebuffer(), blitting it
onto a framebuffer on the dGPU that can then be page flipped on the dGPU
CRTC.
When GPU acceleration is not available, copying works by creating two
dumb buffers, and each frame glReadPixels() from the iGPU EGL render
context directly into the dumb buffer. The dumb buffer is then page
flipped on the dGPU CRTC.

Get rid of some technical dept by removing the support in the native

In order to eventually support multilpe GPUs with their own connectors,
split out related meta data management (i.e. outputs, CRTCs and CRTC
modes) into a new MetaGpu GObject.
The Xrandr backend always assumes there is always only a single "GPU" as
the GPU is abstracted by the X server; only the native backend (aside
from the test backend) will eventually see more than one GPU.
The Xrandr backend still moves some management to MetaGpuXrandr, in
order to behave more similarly to the KMS counterparts.

The reverted commit seems to cause

be safe and revert it for now, as the code freeze is just around the
corner.
This partly (it doesn't reintroduce a whitespace issue) reverts commit
dbc63430d8.
Due to rounding issues, we can't assume a floating point calculation
will end up on an integer, even if we got the factor from the reverse
calculation. Thus, to avoid casting away values like N.999... to N,
when they should really be N+1, round the resulting floating point
calculation before casting it to int.
This fixes an issue where using the scale ~1.739 on a 1920x1080 mode
resulted in error when setting the mode, as the calculated size of the
framebuffer was only 1919x1080.

With GLVND, whenever we have both Mesa's and NVIDIA's drives installed
in the system, initializing the GBM backend will always succeed,
regardless of what GPU you have on your system.
This is due to GBM's software rendering fallback.
It seems better to initialize the EGLDevice backend first, which will
fail to find a device match when given a non-NVIDIA GPU.

Keep track of the logical monitor transform. When a logical monitor is
transformed, all of its monitors are also transformed in the same way.
A logical monitor can either be transformed on the CRTC level, or using
an offscreen intermediate buffer. In both cases will the logical
monitor be transformed, but only in the latter will the view be
transformed.
MetaCrtcs::transform currently does not represent whether the CRTC is
configured to be transformed or not; only when the backend can handle
it does it correctly correspond to the actual CRTC configuration. This
is intended to change with MetaMonitorConfigManager.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
This commit adds support for rendering onto enlarged per logical
monitor framebuffers, using the scaled clutter stage views, for HiDPI
enabled logical monitors.
This works by scaling the mode of the monitors in a logical monitors by
the scale, no longer relying on scaling the window actors and window
geometry for making windows have the correct size on HiDPI monitors.
It is disabled by default, as in automatically created configurations
will still use the old mode. This is partly because Xwayland clients
will not yet work good enough to make it feasible.
To enable, add the 'scale-monitor-framebuffer' keyword to the
org.gnome.mutter.experimental-features gsettings array.
It is still possible to specify the mode via the new D-Bus API, which
has been adapted.
The adaptations to the D-Bus API means the caller need to be aware of
how to position logical monitors on the stage grid. This depends on the
'layout-mode' property that is used (see the DisplayConfig D-Bus
documentation).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777732
Expose via a new API whether the transform on a logical monitor is

We need to do swap notifications asynchronously from flip events since
these might be processed during swap buffers if we are waiting for the
previous frame's flip to continue with the current.
This means that we might have more than one swap notification queued
to be delivered when the idle handler runs. In that case we must
deliver all notifications for which we've already seen a flip event.
Failing to do so means that if a new frame, that only swaps buffers on
such a swap notification backlogged Onscreen, is started, when later
we get its flip event, we'd notify only an old frame which would hit
this MetaStageNative's frame_cb() early exit:
if (global_frame_counter <= presented_frame_counter)
return;
and we'd never finish the new frame and thus clutter's master clock
would be waiting forever stuck.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774557
When flush-swap-notify is already queued, we might end up trying to
requeue it, for example when handling flip callbacks inside
swap-buffers. Actually queuing it there is harmless, since old frames
will be discarded anyway.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774923
We might still end up in swap-buffer without the previous flip callback
having been invoked. This can happen if there are two monitors, and we
manage to draw before having all monitor flip callbacks invoked.

This commit adds for a new type of buffer being attached to a Wayland
surface: buffers from an EGLStream. These buffers behave very
differently from regular Wayland buffers; instead of each buffer
reperesenting an actual frame, the same buffer is attached over and
over again, and EGL API is used to switch the content of the OpenGL
texture associated with the buffer attached. It more or less
side-tracks the Wayland buffer handling.
It is implemented by creating a MetaWaylandEglStream object, dealing
with the EGLStream state. The lifetime of the MetaWaylandEglStream is
tied to the texture object (CoglTexture), which is referenced-counted
and owned by both the actors and the MetaWaylandBuffer.
When the buffer is reattached and committed, the EGLStream is triggered
to switch the content of the associated texture to the new content.
This means that one cannot keep old texture content around without
copying, so any feature relying on that will effectively be broken.

This commit adds support for using a EGLDevice and EGLStreams for
rendering on top of KMS instead of gbm. It is disabled by default; to
enable it pass --enable-egl-device to configure.
By default gbm is first tried, and if it fails, the EGLDevice path is
tried. If both fails, mutter will terminate just as before.

There is no way to pass any backend specific parameters to a
CoglFramebuffer until after it has been allocated by
cogl_framebuffer_allocate() (since this is where the winsys/platform
fields are initialized). This can make it hard to actually allocate
anything, if the platform depends on some backend specific data.
A proper solution would be to refactor the onscreens and framebuffers to
use a GObject based type system instead of the home baked Cogl one, but
that'll be left for another day. For now, allocate in two steps, one to
allocate the backend specific parts (MetaOnscreenNative), and one to
allocate the actual onscreen framebuffer (via
meta_onscreen_native_allocate()).
So far there is nothing that forces this separation, but in the future
there will, for example EGLDevice's need to know about the CRTC in
order to create the EGLSurface.

In another step getting rid of the duplications introduced by Cogl,

Using the view's MetaMonitorInfo to find all the crtcs which should be
configured to display a given onscreen doesn't work unfortunately. The

The texture is only created if the view is transformed at the software level,
otherwise the texture is NULL, and rendering happens on the onscreen.

The offscreen is given through the ::back-buffer property, the ClutterStageView
will set up the the CoglPipeline used to render it back to the "onscreen"
framebuffer.
The pipeline can be altered through the setup_pipeline() vfunc, so ClutterStageView
implementations can alter the default behavior of blitting from offscreen to
onscreen with no transformations.
All getters of "the framebuffer" that were expecting to get an onscreen have
been updated to call the right clutter_stage_view_get_onscreen() function.

They are already effectively interchangeable so this should reduce
pointless casts.
Just like in GDK though, we need to keep the old definition for
instrospection to be able to include the struct's fields.
By creating a pending gbm/EGL surface pair, only setting it on
swap-buffers, we would draw onto a buffer on the old surface, then swap
the buffer from the new surface, causing the first frame after a
hot-plug always having no content.
This was in the past not very noticable since some non-deterministic but
frequent side effect in gnome-shell caused hot-plugging to always render
two new frames, but after "Introduce regional stage rendering", this
side effect did not occur as often, thus making it more visible.
This commit updates the current gbm/EGL surface pair before painting a
frame, so that when the frame is painted, the surface with the correct
size is used and the buffer from correct surface is swapped.
