Now that everything is settled, from the initialization
process to the subclasses to moving code to the compositor,
MetaWindowActor can be a proper abstract class that cannot
be instantiated.
Thus, make MetaWindowActor an abstract class.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
This vfunc was added as a was to work around the convoluted
initialization process. Now that we figured it out and moved
the MetaWindowActor-specific initialization to constructed(),
we can override that.
Remove post_init() and use GObject.constructed() entirely.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
MetaWindowActor breaks layering isolation by accessing
and injecting itself into compositor->windows. This is
a bad practice, and effecticely makes returning the
new actor useless, since we doesn't even use the return
value.
Move window actor creation to under MetaCompositor and
stop violating (too badly) the resposabilities of each
component. This moves meta_window_actor_new() into
meta_compositor_add_window().
Also, move the remaining initialization code to the
GObject.constructed vfunc.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
Document the roles of MetaSurfaceActor and MetaWindowActor,
and when their subclasses are used.
(And this is actually the first real documentation under
src/compositor/README!)
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
MetaWindowActor handles sending _NET_WM_FRAME_* X atoms to
clients - even pure Wayland clients.
Now that we have Wayland- and X11-specific implementations of
MetaWindowActor, we can delegate this to MetaWindowActorX11,
and allow pure Wayland apps to not even connect to
MetaSurfaceActor:repaint-scheduled.
Do that by moving all the X11-specific code to the X11-specific
MetaWindowActorX11 class. Add vfuncs to MetaWindowActorClass
that are necessary for the move, namely:
* pre_paint() and post_paint()
* post_init()
* frame_complete()
* set_surface_actor()
* queue_frame_drawn()
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
Those are stub specialized classes for MetaWindowActor. This will
help ensuring that we do not execute X11-specific code paths on
pure Wayland clients.
The relationship between the window actor and the surface is the
following:
* Wayland: MetaWindowActorWayland + MetaSurfaceActorWayland
* X11: MetaWindowActorX11 + MetaSurfaceActorX11
* Xwayland: MetaWindowActorX11 + MetaSurfaceActorWayland
It is not possible to have MetaWindowActorWayland backed by a
MetaSurfaceActorX11 surface.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
We will introduce specialized MetaWindowActors for X11
and Wayland in the future, so it needs to be derivable.
Make it a derivable class, and introduce a private field.
The MetaWindowActorClass definition is in the private
header in order to prevent external consumers of Mutter
to create MetaWindowActor implementations of their own.
That is, MetaWindowActor is only internally derivable.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/368
EGLStream textures are imported as GL_TEXTURE_EXTERNAL_OES and reading
pixels directly from them is not supported. To make it possible to get
pixels, create an offscreen framebuffer and paint the actor to it, then
read pixels from the framebuffer instead of the texture directly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/362
When a texture is transformed in any way (e.g. Wayland buffer
transforms), we cannot just fetch the pixels from the texture directly
and be done with it, as that will result in getting the untransformed
pixels.
To properly get the pixels in their right form, first draw to an
offscreen framebuffer, using the same method as when painting on the
stage, then read from the framebuffer into a cairo image surface.

Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/408
Implements the `MetaScreenCastWindow` interface for screen-cast
`RecordWindow` mode.
`meta_window_actor_capture_into()` implementation is still pretty crude
and doesn't take into account subsurfaces and O-R windows so menus,
popups and other tooltips won't show in the capture.
This is left as a future improvement for now.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/306
The shader used for computing a vignette currently has two
problems:
* The math is wrong such that the vignette isn't stretched
across the whole actor and so ends abruptly
* There is noticeable banding in its gradient
This commit corrects both problems by fixing the computing
and introducing noise dithering.
This adds the necessary bits to support Wayland buffer transforms.
The main part here is to properly setup the Cogl pipeline
and to recalculate the size of the painted area accordingly,
so culling etc. still works.
The choosen approach additionally lays groundwork for Wayland
wp_viewporter support.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/322
It cuts out some of the GObject boilerplate, and gives us g_autoptr()
support for free.
Since this changes the ABI, we also need to bump the libmutter API
version.
Following up last commit, this commit adds a CoglFramebuffer
argument to meta_shadow_paint(), and stops using the draw
framebuffer internally.
The only consumer of this API, MetaWindowActor, still passes
the draw framebuffer though.
MetaShadow.paint() uses Cogl implicit APIs (cogl_rectangle* ones, in
this case) to paint shadows with the shadow pipeline.
Replace those calls by cogl_framebuffer_draw_textured_rectangle()
calls, that achieve the exact same result but with the non-deprecated
API.
This commit adds meson build support to mutter. It takes a step away
from the three separate code bases with three different autotools setups
into a single meson build system. There are still places that can be
unified better, for example by removing various "config.h" style files
from cogl and clutter, centralizing debug C flags and other configurable
macros, and similar artifacts that are there only because they were once
separate code bases.
There are some differences between the autotools setup and the new
meson. Here are a few:
The meson setup doesn't generate wrapper scripts for various cogl and
clutter test cases. What these tests did was more or less generate a
tiny script that called an executable with a test name as the argument.
To run particular tests, just run the test executable with the name of
the test as the argument.
The meson setup doesn't install test files anymore. The autotools test
suite was designed towards working with installed tests, but it didn't
really still, and now with meson, it doesn't install anything at all,
but instead makes sure that everything runs with the uninstalled input
files, binaries and libraries when running the test suite. Installable
tests may come later.
Tests from cogl, clutter and mutter are run on 'meson test'. In
autotools, only cogl and clutter tests were run on 'make check'.
Install include files in
$prefix/include/mutter-$apiversion/[clutter,cogl,...,meta]/, and
datafiles in /usr/share/mutter-$apiversion/.... We still would conflict
e.g. given that our gettext name is "mutter", and how keybindings are
installed, but it's a step in the right direction.
This is the filename convention you get when you define a shared module
in meson, and since there is no particular reason to not include the
"lib" prefix, lets make it easier to port it over. While at it,
de-duplicate the retrieval of the plugin name.
The order and way include macros were structured was chaotic, with no
real common thread between files. Try to tidy up the mess with some
common scheme, to make things look less messy.
The clip and opaque region are both in a translated stage coordinate
space, where the origin is in the top left corner of the painted
texture. The painting, however, is in the texture coordinate space,
so when the texture is scaled, the coordinate spaces differ.
Handle this by transforming the clip and opaque region to texture
coordinate space before computing the blend region and the opaque region
to paint.

They were int before entering MetaShapedTexture, used as ints in the
cairo regions and rectangles, so there is no reason they should be
stored as unsigned.

The compositor will automatically unredirect the top most window which
is fully visible on screen. When unredirecting windows, it also shapes
the compositor overlay window (COW) so that other redirected windows
still shows correctly.
The function `get_top_visible_window_actor()` however will simply walks
down the window list, so if a window is placed on a layer above and
unredirected, then iconified by the client, it will still be picked up
by `get_top_visible_window_actor()` and he compositor will reckon it's
still unredirected while not in a visible state anymore, thus leaving a
black area on screen.
Make sure we skip the windows not known to the compositor while picking
the top visible window actor to avoid this issue.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/306
The function is intentionally provided as macro to not require a
cast. Recently the macro was improved to check that the passed in
pointer matches the free function, so the cast to GDestroyNotify
is now even harmful.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/176
The special ::pick implementation there makes clutter fall into paths
that do require a get_paint_volume() implementation, or an infinite
area will be used.
Providing a paint volume here is easier on the invalidation mechanism.
This optimization was presumably added before Clutter was able to
invalidate selected regions of an actor. Paint volumes are supposed
to be invariable as long as the actor conditions don't change.
Stacking of other actors shouldn't affect the paint volume, so it's
actually wrong to optimize those areas away here.
- Stop using CurrentTime, introduce META_CURRENT_TIME
- Use g_get_monotonic_time () instead of relying on an
X server running and making roundtrip to it

Split X11 specific parts into MetaX11Display. This also required
changing MetaScreen to stop listening to any signals by itself, but
instead relying on MetaDisplay forwarding them. This was to ensure the
ordering. MetaDisplay listens to both the internal and external
monitors-changed signal so that it can pass the external one via the
redundant MetaDisplay(prev MetaScreen)::monitors-changed.

They are X11 specific functions, used for X11 code. They have been

This avoids overwhelming the GPU with trying to update mipmaps at a high
rate. Because doing so could easily cause a reduction in the compositor
frame rate and thus actually reduce visual quality.
In the case of a window that is constantly animating in the overview,
this reduces mutter's render time by around 20%-30%.
While MetaStage, MetaWindowGroup and MetaDBusDisplayConfigSkeleton don't
appear explicitly in the public API, their gtypes are still exposed via
meta_get_stage_for_screen(), meta_get_*window_group_for_screen() and
MetaMonitorManager's parent type. Newer versions of gjs will warn about
undefined properties if it encounters a gtype without introspection
information, so expose those types to shut up the warnings.

When using plugins, the effects will affect the MetaWindowActor size
and position.
Add a new signal "effects-completed" wired to the corresponding
MetaWindowActor which is emitted when all effects are completed so that
derived objects can be notified when all effects are completed and use
the actual size and position.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/104
Make the Wayland objects push the state relevant to their role to the
MetaSurfaceActor instead of MetaSurfaceActorWayland pulling the state
from the associated surface.
This makes the relationship between the actor and the objects that
constructs it more clear; the actor is a drawable that the protocol
objects control, not the other way around.
This will make it easier to "detach" a surface actor from a surface,
which is necessary when unmapping a window while the underlying surface
is yet to be destroyed and potentially reused.

When the top window actor is destroyed, we need to make sure that
all its references are removed or it could be picked again in next
windows sync, causing crashes.
Since the window might or might not be destroyed when removed (depending
weather animations are in progress over it or not), it's just safer
to wait it to be destroyed before cleaning up any of its reference.

We must emit ::dnd-leave to pair the ::dnd-enter that shall be

This is not a leak per se, but it seems too easy to make valgrind
SIGSEGV due to MetaBackground disconnecting signals from an already

It looks that there are some extensions that run a Mainloop on startup,
causing to dispatch a clutter paint before the compositor is even available.
In such scenario a MetaWindow could try to start a simple effect
using a compositor plugin which is not there yet.
Then in order to catch these bugs we can now assert that the expected
conditions are valid, so that gnome-shell will provide a dumpstack to
debug the real offending JS code.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789223
There are cases when no compositor is available (yet) but a MetaWindow tries
to start a simple effect using a compositor plugin which is not available.
In that case we should just ignore any request and protect ourselves from
crashes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789223
This function might be called by components with invalid plugin manager
(as it might happen to MetaWindow when the compositor isn't initialized
properly), so we need to protect ourselves from crashes.

When determining whether we should unredirect a window or not, ignore
offscreen windows, and just check the top most visible window.
Previously this was not an issue, but since 'stack-tracker: Keep
override redirect windows on top' we started sorting the UI frames
window, which is an offscreen override redirect window, on top, causing
the unredirect checking code to always check whether to unredirect the
UI frames window. This effectively disabled the compositor bypass
functionality.

The brightness is about the vignette. Add a 'vignette_' prefix in order
to give more context. Keep the property name as it is, doing so we don't

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).

No XDnD events which notify DnD status change comes in Wayland. To emulate XDnD
behavior, MetaDnd checks whether there is a grab or not when the modal window
starts showing. When there is a grab, it processes the raw events from
compositor, and emits DnD signals for plugin.

We currently don't have any shadow class for combo box popups,
which means the default shadow of normal windows is used. That's
clearly odd given that the two are very different, and isn't
consistent with GTK+-3's client-side shadows for popups. While
we could add a dedicated shadow class, the designers are fine
with reusing the existing shadow for dropdown-menus, so let's
do that.

If the meta_window_actor_effect_completed() triggers inconsistent
accounting, there's also high chances that the thaw call will be
unexpected at this time too, which will lead to a g_error().
This makes mutter more lenient to effect_completed() calls of the
right type (i.e. those triggering freeze/thaw) being performed more
times than necessary in the upper parts. A warning will be issued,
but the process won't abort.
