Commit 033f0d11bf added a fallback in case the tile monitor wasn't
set before, but didn't actually check for a previously set value.
As a result, the "fallback" is not set unconditionally, which may
differ from the expected monitor: The tile monitor is determined
by the pointer position, while the window's monitor is the one
where the biggest part of the window resides on.

It's pointless to call into functions that produce information that will

We only update the last device from actual input interaction here,
avoid this pair of events. This is specially nasty with
CLUTTER_DEVICE_REMOVED, since the device we're notifying upon will be

This is already taken care of in meta_backend_monitors_changed(), called

Analogous to `ClutterDrawDebugFlag` but intended for concepts that
are not present in Clutter, such as Wayland/X11 opaque regions.
Also add the first flag for the later.
To set the flag, run:
`Meta.add_debug_paint_flag(Meta.DebugPaintFlag.OPAQUE_REGION)`

meta_run() is still left intact and does the same as before; the new
functions are only intended to be used by tests, as they may need to set
things up after starting up. Doing so linearly in the test case is much
easier than adding callbacks, so meta_run() is split up to make this
possible.

The delete event was used for signalling the close button was clicked on
clutter windows. Being a compositor we should never see these, unless
we're running nested. Remove the plumbing of the DELETE event and just
directly call meta_quit() when we see it, if we're running nested.

Allowing code from inside mutter to create a child process and
delegate on it some of its tasks is something very useful. This can
be done easily with the g_subprocess and g_subprocess_launcher classes
already available in GLib and GObject.
Unfortunately, although the child process can be a graphical program,
currently it is not possible for the inner code to identify the
windows created by the child in a secure manner (this is: being able
to ensure that a malicious program won't be able to trick the inner
code into thinking it is a child process launched by it).
Under X11 this is not a problem because any program has full control
over their windows, but under Wayland it is a different story: a
program can't neither force their window to be kept at the top (like a
docker program does) or at the bottom (like a program for desktop icons
does), nor hide it from the list of windows. This means that it is not
possible for a "classic", non-priviledged program, to fulfill these
tasks, and it can be done only from code inside mutter (like a
gnome-shell extension).
This is a non desirable situation, because an extension runs in the
same main loop than the whole desktop itself, which means that a
complex extension can need to do too much work inside the main loop,
and freeze the whole desktop for too much time. Also, it is important
to note that javascript doesn't have access to fork(), or threads,
which means that, at most, all the parallel computing that can do is
those available in the _async calls in GLib/GObject.
Also, having to create an extension for any priviledged graphical
element is an stopper for a lot of programmers who already know
GTK+ but doesn't know Clutter.
This patch wants to offer a solution to this problem, by offering a
new class that allows to launch a trusted child process from inside
mutter, and make it to use an specific UNIX socket to communicate
with the compositor. It also allows to check whether an specific
MetaWindow was created by one of this trusted child processes or not.
This allows to create extensions that launch a child process, and
when that process creates a window, the extension can confirm in a
secure way that the window really belongs to that process
launched by it, so it can give to that window "superpowers" like
being kept at the bottom of the desktop, not being listed in the
list of windows or shown in the Activities panel... Also, in future
versions, it could easily implement protocol extensions that only
could be used by these trusted child processes.
Several examples of the usefulness of this are that, with it, it
is possible to write programs that implements:
- desktop icons
- a dock
- a top or bottom bar
...
all in a secure manner, avoiding insecure programs to do the same.
In fact, even if the same code is launched manually, it won't have
those privileges, only the specific process launched from inside
mutter.
Since this is only needed under Wayland, it won't work under X11.

There are a couple of places in gnome-shell where we aren't interested

Of course it's easy to use the former to determine the latter, but we

X11 window stacking operations are by nature prone to race conditions.
For example, we might queue a "raise above" operation, but before it
actually takes place, the sibling the window was to be rased above, is
withdrawn.
In these cases we'd log warnings even though they are expected to
happen. Downgrade these warnings to debug messages, only printed when
MUTTER_VERBOSE is set.

When an app disappears after some data from it has been copied to the
clipboard, the owner of the clipboard selection becomes a new memory
selection source. The initial reference this new selection source is
never unref'ed, which leads to this being leaked on the next clipboard
selection owner change.

Using XDG_CONFIG_HOME allows users to place their keyboard configuration into
their home directory and have them loaded automatically.
libxkbcommon now defaults to XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb/ first, see
https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/pull/117
However - libxkbcommon uses secure_getenv() to obtain XDG_CONFIG_HOME and thus
fails to load this for the mutter context which has cap_sys_nice.
We need to manually add that search path as lookup path.
As we can only append paths to libxkbcommon's context, we need to start with
an empty search path set, add our custom path, then append the default search
paths.
The net effect is nil where a user doesn't have XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb/.

We would get the MetaDisplay from the backend singleton before creating
the MetaCompositor, then in MetaCompositor, get the backend singleton
again to get the stage. To get rid of the extra singleton fetching, just
pass the backend the MetaCompositor constructors, and fetch the stage
directly from the backend everytime it's needed.
This also makes it available earlier than before, as we didn't set our
instance private stage pointer until the manage() call.

Move Wayland support (i.e. the MetaWaylandCompositor object) made to be
part of the backend. This is due to the fact that it is needed by the
backend initialization, e.g. the Wayland EGLDisplay server support.
The backend is changed to be more involved in Wayland and clutter
initialization, so that the parts needed for clutter initialization
happens before clutter itself initialization happens, and the rest
happens after. This simplifies the setup a bit, as clutter and Wayland
init now happens as part of the backend initialization.

Since PIDs are inherently insecure because they are reused after a
certain amount of processes was started, it's possible the client PID
was spoofed by the client.
So make sure users of the meta_window_get_pid() API are aware of those
issues and add a note to the documentation that the PID can not be
totally trusted.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1180
Since the PID of a window can't change as long as the window exists, we
can safely cache it after we got a valid PID once, so do that by adding
a new `window->client_pid` private property.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1180
The shell uses the PID of windows to map them to apps or to find out
which window/app triggered a dialog. It currently fails to do that in
some situations on Wayland, because meta_window_get_pid() only returns a
valid PID for x11 clients.
So use the client PID instead of the X11-exclusive _NET_WM_PID property
to find out the PID of the process that started the window. We can do
that by simply renaming the already existing
meta_window_get_client_pid() API to meta_window_get_pid() and moving
the old API providing the _NET_WM_PID to meta_window_get_netwm_pid().

When tiling, we want to set the tile monitor. To not have to do this

behavior.

The 'assert_size' command checks that the size of the window, both
client side and compositor side, corresponds to an expected size set by
the test case.
The size comparison can only be done when the window is using 'csd', in
order for both the client and server to have the same amount of
understanding of the title bar. For ssd, the client cannot know how
large the title bar, thus cannot verify the full window size.
Sizes can be specified to mean the size of the monitor divided by a
number. This is that one can make sure a window is maximized or
fullscreened correctly.

Move to center uses all monitors for calculating work area.
This can lead to an unexpected behaviour on some monitor
configurations resulting in current window being split between

Add MetaAnonymousFile, an abstraction around anonymous read-only files.
Files can be created by calling meta_anonymous_file_new(), passing the
data of the file. Subsequent calls to meta_anonymous_file_open_fd()
return a fd that's ready to be sent over the socket.
When mapmode is META_ANONYMOUS_FILE_MAPMODE_PRIVATE the fd is only
guaranteed to be mmap-able readonly with MAP_PRIVATE but does not
require duplicating the file for each resource when memfd_create is
available. META_ANONYMOUS_FILE_MAPMODE_SHARED may be used when the
client must be able to map the file with MAP_SHARED but it also means
that the file has to be duplicated even when memfd_create is available.

Try to bypass compositing if there is a fullscreen toplevel window with
a buffer compatible with the primary plane of the monitor it is
fullscreen on. Only non-mirrored is currently supported; as well as
fullscreened on a single monitor. It should be possible to extend with
more cases, but this starts small.
It does this by introducing a new MetaCompositor sub type
MetaCompositorNative specific to the native backend, which derives from
MetaCompositorServer, containing functionality only relevant for when
running on top of the native backend.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/798
MetaCompositor is the place in mutter that manages the higher level
state of compositing, such as handling what happens before and after
paint. In order for other units that depend on having a compositor
instance active, but should be initialized before the X11 implementation
of MetaCompositor registers as a X11 compositing manager, split the
initialization of compositing into two steps:
1) Instantiate the object - only construct the instance, making it
possible for users to start listening to signals etc
2) Manage - this e.g. establishes the compositor as the X11 compositing
manager and similar things.
This will enable us to put compositing dependent scattered global
variables into a MetaCompositor owned object.
For now, compositor management is internally done by calling a new
`meta_compositor_do_manage()`, as right now we can't change the API of
`meta_compositor_manage()` as it is public. For the next version, manual
management of compositing will removed from the public API, and only
managed internally.

Currently we check whether a window is alive everytime it's focused.
This means that an application that doesn't respond to the check-alive
event during startup always showing the "application froze" dialog,
without the user ever trying to interact with it.
An example where this tends to to happen is with games, and for this
particular scenario, it's purely an annoyance, as I never tried to
interact with the game window in the first place, so I don't care that
it's not responding - it's loading.
To avoid these unnecessary particular "app-is-frozen" popups, remove the
alive check from the focus function, and instead move it back to the
"meta_window_activate_full()" call. To also trigger it slightly more
often, also add it to the path that triggers the window focus when a
user actively clicks on the window.
This means that we currently check whether a window is alive on:
* Any time the window is activated. This means e.g. alt-tab or
selecting the window in the overview.
* The user clicks on the window.
Note that the second only works for an already focused window on
Wayland, as on X11, we don't refocus it. This particular case isn't
changed with this commit, as we didn't call meta_window_focus() to begin
with here.

Support for them appears to be way less common than e.g. png, which is

This is so that cogl-trace.h can start using things from cogl-macros.h,

We used to inhibit all pad actions while the OSD is shown, but one we
would actually want to handle are mode switches while the OSD is open.
So it has an opportunity to catch up to the mode switch.

action labels), so the OSD has an opportunity to update the current

Commit cda9579034 fixed a corner case when setting the initial workspace
state of transient windows, but it still missed a case:
should_be_on_all_workspaces() returns whether the window should be on all
workspaces according to its properties/placement, but it doesn't take
transient relations into account.
That means in case of nested transients, we can still fail the assert:
1. on-all-workspaces toplevel
2. should_be_on_all_workspaces() is TRUE for the first transient's parent,
as the window from (1) has on_all_workspaces_requested == TRUE
3. should_be_on_all_workspaces() is FALSE for the second transient's
parent, as the window from (2) is only on-all-workspace because
of its parent
We can fix this by either using the state from the root ancestor
instead of the direct transient parent, or by using the parent's
on_all_workspaces_state.
The latter is simpler, so go with that.

Make sure it is only the special modifier (hardcoded to 1 currently)
which is being pressed (not counting locked modifiers) before notifying
that the special modifier is pressed, as we are interested in it being
pressed alone and not in combination with other modifier keys.
This helps in two ways:
- Pressing alt, then ctrl, then releasing both won't trigger the locate
pointer action.
- Pressing alt, then ctrl, then down/up to switch workspace won't interpret
the last up/down keypress as an additional key on top of the special ctrl
modifier, thus won't be forwarded down to the focused client in the last
second.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/812https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1014
If you first press a key that triggers the "special modifier key" paths
(ctrl, super), and then press another key that doesn't match (yet?) any
keybindings (eg. ctrl+alt, super+x), the second key press goes twice
through process_event(), once in the processing of this so far special
combination and another while we let the event through.
In order to keep things consistent, handle it differently depending on
whether we are a wayland compositor or not. For X11, consider the event
handled after the call to process_event() in process_special_modifier_key().
For Wayland, as XIAllowEvents is not the mechanism that allows clients see
the key event, we can just fall through the regular paths, without this
special handling.

This commits adds support on the MetaWindow and constraints engine side
for asynchronously repositioning a window with a placement rule, either
due to environmental changes (e.g. parent moved) or explicitly done so
via `meta_window_update_placement_rule()`.
This is so far unused, as placement rules where this functionality is
triggered are not yet constructed by the xdg-shell implementation, and
no users of `meta_window_update_placement_rule()` exists yet.
To summarize, it works by making it possible to produce placement rules
with the parent rectangle a window should be placed against, while
creating a pending configuration that is not applied until acknowledged
by the client using the xdg-shell configure/ack_configure mechanisms.
An "temporary" constrain result is added to deal with situations
where the client window *must* move immediately even though it has not yet
acknowledged a new configuration that was sent. This happens for example
when the parent window is moved, causing the popup window to change its
relative position e.g. because it ended up partially off-screen. In this
situation, the temporary position corresponds to the result of the
movement of the parent, while the pending (asynchronously configured)
position is the relative one given the new constraining result.

MetaGravity is an enum, where the values match the X11 macros used for
gravity, with the exception that `ForgetGravity` was renamed
`META_GRAVITY_NONE` to have less of a obscure name.
The motivation for this is to rely less on libX11 data types and macros
in generic code.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/705
A placement rule placed window positions itself relative to its parent,
thus converting between relative coordinates to absolute coordinates,
then back to relative coordinates implies unwanted restrictions for
example when the absolute coordinate should not be calculated againts
the current parent window position.
Deal with this by keeping track of the relative position all the way
from the constraining engine to the move-resize window implementation.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/705
To organize things a bit better, put the fields related to the placement
rule state in its own anonymous struct inside MetaWindow. While at it,
rename the somewhat oddly named variable that in practice means the
current relative window position.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/705
A placement rule is always about placing a window relative to its
parent. In order to eventually place it against predicted future parent
positions, make the placement rule processing output relative
coordinates, having the caller deal with turning them into absolute.

This is made a signal, so the upper layers (read: gnome-shell) may
decide what services to spawn. The signal argument contains a task
that will resume MetaX11Display startup after it is returned upon.

We artificially made Xwayland initialization synchronous, as we used
to rely on MetaX11Display and other bits during meta_display_open().
With support for Xwayland on demand and --no-x11, this is certainly
not the case.
So drop the main loop surrounding Xwayland initialization, and turn
it into an async operation called from meta_display_init_x11(). This
function is turned then into the high-level entry point that will
get you from no X server to having a MetaX11Display.
The role of meta_init() in Xwayland initialization is thus reduced
to setting up the sockets. Notably no processes are spawned from here,
deferring that till there is a MetaDisplay to poke.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/944
This ATM completes the task right away, but we will want to do
further things here that are asynchronous in nature, so prepare
for this operation being async.
Since the X11 backend doesn't really need this, make it go on
the fast lane and open the MetaX11Display right away, the case
of mandatory Xwayland on a wayland session is now handled
separately.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/944
This used to be set on meta_compositor_manage(), but only if there is a
MetaX11Display. Given meta_display_init_x11() is Wayland only, and we can
always assume compositing to be enabled, just have it invariably set after
the X server is up.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/944
The check-alive feature is there for the user to be able to terminate
frozen applications more easily. However, sometimes applications are
implemented in a way where they fail to be reply to ping requests in a
timely manner, resulting in that, to the compositor, they are
indistinguishable from clients that have frozen indefinitely.
When using an application that has these issues, the GUI showed in
response to the failure to respond to ping requests can become annoying,
as it disrupts the visual presentation of the application.
To allow users to work-around these issues, add a setting allowing them
to configure the timeout waited until an application is considered
frozen, or disabling the check completely.

There are two surface roles owning a MetaWindow: MetaWaylandShellSurface
(basis of MetaWaylandXdgToplevel, MetaWaylandXdgPopup,
MetaWaylandWlShellSurface, etc), and MetaXwaylandSurface.
With these two role types, the MetaWindow has two different types of
life times. With MetaWaylandShellSurface, the window is owned and
managed by the role itself, while with MetaXwaylandSurface, the
MetaWindow is tied to the X11 window, while the Wayland surface and its
role plays more the role of the backing rendering surface.
Before, for historical reasons, MetaWindow was part of
MetaWaylandSurface, even though just some roles used it, and before
'wayland: Untie MetaWindowXwayland lifetime from the wl_surface' had
equivalent life times as well. But since that commit, the management
changed. To not have the same fied in MetaWaylandSurface being managed
in such drastically different ways, rearrange it so that the roles that
has a MetaWindow themself manages it in the way it is meant to; meaning
MetaWaylandShellSurface practically owns it, while with Xwayland, the
existance of a MetaWindow is tracked via X11.

Using a timestamp twice in a row (e.g. when activating two windows in
response to the same event or due to other bugs) will break the window
detection and show a close dialog on the wrong window. This is a grave
error that should never happen, so check every timestamp before sending
the ping for uniqueness and if the timestamp was already used and its
ping is still pending, log a warning message and don't send the ping.

Increase the number of checks whether a window is still responsive and
ping windows on every call to `meta_window_focus()` instead of
`meta_window_activate_full()`. This ensures the window is also pinged in
case normal interaction like clicks on the window happen and a close
dialog will eventually get shown.

When an X11 window requests an initial workspace, we currently trust
it that the workspace actually exists. However dynamic workspaces
make this easy to get wrong for applications: They make it likely
for the number of workspaces to change between application starts,
and if the app blindly applies its saved state on startup, it will
trigger an assertion.
Make sure that we pass valid parameters to set_workspace_state(),
and simply let the workspace assignment fall through to the default
handling otherwise.

Most usually, applications either expose clipboard content either as text

image based ones.

In Wayland, window configuration is asynchronous. Window geometry is
constrained, the constrained geometry is sent to the client, and the

While most of the code to compute a window's layer isn't explicitly
windowing backend specific, it is in practice: On wayland there are

(*) they shall burn in hell, amen!

When a window that should be stacked above another one is placed in a lower
layer than the other window, we currently allow promoting it to the higher
layer when it has a "transient type". We should do the same when the window
is an actual transient of the other window.
This is particularly relevant for wayland windows, where types play a
much smaller role: Transient windows like non-modal dialogs (and since

Add an assert that we don't have a MetaWindow::monitor pointer that
points to an old MetaLogicalMonitor. After this, and the other
monitors-changed callbacks have been called, the old MetaLogicalMonitor
will be destoryed, thus if we didn't update the pointer here, we'll
point to freed memory, and will eventually crash later on.

This is inspired by 98892391d7 where the usage of
`g_signal_handler_disconnect()` without resetting the corresponding
handler id later resulted in a bug. Using `g_clear_signal_handler()`
makes sure we avoid similar bugs and is almost always the better
alternative. We use it for new code, let's clean up the old code to
also use it.
A further benefit is that it can get called even if the passed id is
0, allowing us to remove a lot of now unnessecary checks, and the fact
that `g_clear_signal_handler()` checks for the right type size, forcing us
to clean up all places where we used `guint` instead of `gulong`.
No functional changes intended here and all changes should be trivial,
thus bundled in one big commit.

Add an adjust_fullscreen_monitor_rect virtual method to MetaWindowClass

for a workaround related to fullscreen games under Xwayland.

Requesting a selection with a NULL data source means "unset the clipboard",
but internally we use an unset clipboard as the indication that the
clipboard manager should take over.
Moreover, this unset request may go unheard if the current owner is someone
else than the MetaWaylandDataDevice.
Instead, set a dummy data source with no mimetypes nor data, this both
prevents the clipboard manager from taking over and ensures the selection
is replaced with it.
The MetaSelectionSourceMemory was also added some checks to allow for this
dummy mode.

Mutter issues a synchronous grab on the pointer for unfocused client
windows to be able to catch the button events first and raise/focus
client windows accordingly.
When there is a synchronous grab in effect, all events are queued until
the grabbing client releases the event queue as it processes the events.
Mutter does release the events in its event handler function but does so
only if it is able to find the window matching the event. If the window
is a shell widget, that matching may fail and therefore Mutter will not
release the events, hence causing a freeze in pointer events delivery.
To avoid the issue, make sure we sync the pointer events in case we
can't find a matching window.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/821
With the addition of the locate-pointer special keybinding (defaults to
the [Control] key), we have now two separate special modifier keys which
can be triggered separately, one for the locate-pointer action and
another one for overlay.
When processing those special modifier keys, mutter must ensure that the
key was pressed alone, being a modifier, the key could otherwise be part
of another key combo.
As result, if both special modifiers keys are pressed simultaneously,
mutter will try to trigger the function for the second key being
pressed, and since those special modifier keys have no default handler
function set, that will crash mutter.
Check if the handler has a function associated and treat the keybinding
as not found if no handler function is set, as with the special modifier
keys.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/823
The `process_event()` would check for a existing keybinding handler and
abort if there is none, however the test is done after the handler had
been accessed, hence defeating the purpose of the check.
Move the check to verify there is an existing keybinding handler before
actually using it.

Instead of open coding the X11 focus management in display.c, expose
it as a single function with similar arguments to its MetaDisplay

We have a "setup" phase, used internally to initialize early the x11
side of things like the stack tracker, and an "opened" phase where
other upper parts may hook up to. This latter phase is delayed during
initialization so the upper parts have a change to connect to on
plugin creation.
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/771
If window decoration is modified within a short period of time, mutter
sometimes starts processing the second request before the first
UnmapNotify event has been received. In this situation, it considers
that the window is not mapped and does not expect another UnmapNotify /
MapNotify event sequence to happen.
This adds a separate counter to keep track of the pending reparents. The
input focus is then restored when MapNotify event is received iff all
the expected pending ReparentNotify events have been received.

The end goal is to have all clutter backend code in src/backends. Input

This was supposed to be nice and incremental, but there's no sane way
to cut this through. As a result of the refactor, a number of private
Clutter functions are now exported for external backends to be possible.

When double clicking to un-maximize an X11 window under Wayland, there
is a race between X11 and Wayland protocols and the X11 XConfigureWindow
may be processed by Xwayland before the button press event is forwarded
via the Wayland protocol.
As a result, the second click may reach another X11 window placed right
underneath in the X11 stack.
Make sure we do not forward the button press event to Wayland if it was
handled by the frame UI.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/88
Some meta_later operations may happen across XWayland being shutdown,
that trigger MetaStackTracker queries for X11 XIDs. This crashes as
the MetaX11Display is already NULL.
Return a NULL window in that case, as in "unknown stack ID".
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/728
The Xwayland manager now has 4 distinct phases:
- Init and shutdown (Happening together with the compositor itself)
- Start and stop
In these last 2 phases, handle orderly initialization and shutdown
of Xwayland. On initialization We will simply find out what is a
proper display name, and set up the envvar and socket so that clients
think there is a X server.
Whenever we detect data on this socket, we enter the start phase
that will launch Xwayland, and plunge the socket directly to it.
In this phase we now also set up the MetaX11Display.
The stop phase is pretty much the opposite, we will shutdown the
MetaX11Display and all related data, terminate the Xwayland
process, and restore the listening sockets. This phase happens
on a timeout whenever the last known X11 MetaWindow is gone. If no
new X clients come back in this timeout, the X server will be
eventually terminated.
The shutdown phase happens on compositor shutdown and is completely
uninteresting. Some bits there moved into the stop phase as might
happen over and over.
This is all controlled by META_DISPLAY_POLICY_ON_DEMAND and
the "autostart-xwayland" experimental setting.

When rushing to unmanage X11 windows after the X11 connection is closed/ing,

What "restart" means is somewhat different between x11 and wayland
sessions. A X11 compositor may restart itself, thus having to manage
again all the client windows that were running. A wayland compositor
cannot restart itself, but might restart X11, in which case there's
possibly a number of wayland clients, plus some x11 app that is
being started.
For the latter case, the assert will break, so just make it
conditional. Also rename the function so it's more clear that it
only affects X11 windows.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/709
If the display is closed prematurely, go through all windows that
look X11-y and remove them for future calculations. This is not
strictly needed as Xwayland should shut down orderly (thus no client
windows be there), but doesn't hurt to prepare in advance for the
cases where it might not be the case.

We don't strictly need it for wayland compositors, yet there are
paths where we try to trigger those passive grabs there. Just

Commit 09bab98b1e tried to avoid several workspace changes while in
window construction, but it missed a case:
If we have a window on a secondary monitor with no workspaces enabled
(so it implicitly gets on_all_workspaces = TRUE without requesting it)
and trigger the creation of a second window that has the first as
transient-for, it would first try to set the first workspace than the
transient-for window and then fallback to all/current workspace.
After that commit we only try to set the same workspace than the
transient-for window, but it gets none as neither is on a single workspace,
nor did really request to be on all workspaces.
Fixes crashes when opening transient X11 dialogs in the secondary monitor.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/714
We first set the workspace to the transient-for parent's, and then
try to set on the current workspace. If both happen, we double the
work on adding/removing it from the workspace, and everything that
happens in result.

bar, as the animation results in a number of xdg_popup being created

On X11, mutter needs to keep a grab on the locate-pointer key to be able
to trigger the functionality time the corresponding key combo is
pressed.
However, doing so may have side effects on other X11 clients that would
want to have a grab on the same key.
Make sure we only actually grab the key combo for "locate-pointer" only
when the feature is actually enabled, so that having the locate pointer
feature turned off (the default) would not cause side effects on other
X11 clients that might want to use the same key for their own use.
Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/647
Some special modifiers (typically "Control_L" used for locate-pointer in
mutter/gnome-shell or "Super_L" for overlay) must be handled separately
from the rest of the key bindings.
Add a new flag `META_KEY_BINDING_NO_AUTO_GRAB` so we can tell when
dealing with that special keybinding which should not be grabbed
automatically like the rest of the keybindings, and skip those when
changing the grabs of all keybindings.

Using the master device, as we did, won't yield the expected result when

Use the slave device, as the g-s-d machinery essentially expects.

The device ID is kind of pointless on Wayland, so it might be better to
stick to something that works for both backends. Passing the device here

As per commit 040de396b, we don't try to grab when shortcuts are inhibited,
However, this uses the focus window assuming that it is always set, while this
might not be the case in some scenarios (like when unsetting the focus before
requesting take-focus-window to acquire the input).
So allow the button grab even if the focus window is not set for the display
Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/663https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/668
On Wayland, if a client issues a inhibit-shortcut request, the Wayland
compositor will disable its own shortcuts.
We should also disable the default handler for the button grab modifier
so that button events with the window grab modifiers pressed are not
caught by the compositor but are forwarded to the client surface.
That also fixes the same issue with Xwayland applications issuing grabs,
as those end up being emulated like shortcut inhibition.

gnome-shell hardcodes a vertical one-column workspace layout, and

When destroying a window that has a parent, we initially try to focus one of

When we're unfullscreening, we might be returning to a window state that
has its size either managed by constraints (tiled, maximized), or not

maximized) and let the application decide how to size itself.

As per commit 7718e67f, destroying the compositor causes destroying window
actors and this leads to stack changes, but at this point the stack was already
disposed and cleared.
So, clear the stack when any component that could use it (compositor, and X11)
has already been destroyed.
As consequence, also the stamps should be destroyed at later point.

We're currently emitting the 'grab-op-end' signal when the grab prerequisites
are met, but when display->grab_op is still set to a not-NONE value and thus
meta_display_get_grab_op() would return that in the signal callback.
And more importantly when this is emitted, devices are still grabbed.
Instead, emit this signal as soon as we've unset all the grab properties and
released the devices.

In all places (including src/wayland) we tap into meta_x11_display* focus
API, which then calls meta_display* API. This relation is backwards, so
rework input focus management so it's the other way around.
We now have high-level meta_display_(un)set_input_focus functions, which
perform the backend-independent maintenance, and calls into the X11
functions where relevant. These functions are what callers should use.

We use a GtkIconTheme (thus icon-theme, thus xsettings, thus x11) just to
grab a "missing icon" icon to show in place. Relax this requirement that
surfaces for icon/mini-icon will be set, and just let it have NULL here.
It seems better to have the callers (presumably UI layers) aware of this
and set a proper icon by themselves, but AFAICS there is none in sight,
not even plain mutter seems to use MetaWindow::[mini-]icon. Probably
worth a future cleanup.

This explicit ungrab is made to ensure the other X11 display connection
is able to start an active grab immediately on the device without receiving
AlreadyGrabbed.

This object takes care of the X11 representation of the window stack,
namely the _NET_CLIENT_LIST and _NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING root window
properties.
This code has been lifted from src/core/stack.c into src/x11 as it's
dependent on the X11 display availability. This also leaves MetaStack
squeaky clean of x11 specifics.

We'd break the loop for moving attached windows at the first window,
meaning we'd only ever move a single attached dialogs or popup if it was
the first window in the list. This doesn't work out well when there are
multiple popups open, so don't break out of the loop at all until all
windows are potentially moved.
This fixes an issue in gtk4 where one or more non-grabbing popups would
end up unattached if there were more than one and the parent window was
moved.

This is a simple clipboard manager implementation on top of MetaSelection.
It will inspect the clipboard content for UTF-8 text and image data whenever
any other selection source claims ownership, and claim it for itself
whenever the clipboard goes unowned.
The stored text has a maximum size of 4MB and images 200MB, to prevent the
compositor from allocating indefinite amounts of memory.

When an application stops responding, the shell darkens its windows.
If a window from a not-responding application gets unmanaged
then the shell will currently throw an exception trying to retrieve
the now-dissociated window actor.

in the log.
This commit addresses the problem by making sure the effect is cleaned
up before the actor is disocciated from its window.

When focus stealing prevention kicks in, mutter would set the demand
attention flag on the window.
Focus stealing prevention would also prevent the window from being
raised and focused, which is expected as its precisely its purpose.
Yet, when that occurs, the user expects the window which has just been
prevented from being focused to be the next one in the MRU list, so
that pressing [Alt]-[Tab] would raise and give focus to that window.
This works fine when the window is placed on the primary monitor, but
not when placed on another monitor, in which case the window which has
been denied focus is placed ahead of the MRU list and pressing
[Alt]-[Tab] would leave the focus on the current window.
This is because of a mechanism in `meta_display_get_tab_list()` which
forces the windows with the demand attention flag set to be placed first
in the MRU list when they're placed on a workspace different from the
current one.
But because workspaces apply only to the primary monitor (by default),
the windows placed on other outputs have their workspace set to `NULL`
which forces them ahead of the MRU list by mistake.
Fix this by using the appropriate `meta_window_located_on_workspace()
function to check if the window is on another workspace.

Splitting out the X11 display initialization from display_open() broke
restoring the previously active workspace in two ways:
- when dynamic workspaces are used, the old workspaces haven't
been restored yet, so we stay on the first workspace
- when static workspaces are used, the code tries to access
the compositor that hasn't been initialized yet, resulting
in a segfault
Fix both those issues by splitting out restoring of the active workspace.

The external grab handler is shared across all external bindings and external
bindings have now different binding flags. For this reason, when rebuilding the
binding table there could be loss of information if we assign the bindings flags
of the external handler to all external bindings. Let's store the bindings flags
in MetaKeyGrab too and use this when rebuilding the binding table to avoid the
above issue.

As per commit 43633d6b, we mark an unmanaging window as not focusable, while

For various error and warning messages, mutter includes a description of

they can potentially find their way into bug reports and similar. Remove

This allows us to be more precise in selecting what is exported and what is

This is a GAppLaunchContext subclass meant to replace usage of
GdkAppLaunchContext in gnome-shell.
Launch contexts get created from the MetaStartupNotification as

the availability of a X11 display, if there is one we go through
it (and libsn). If there is none, we still create startup sequences
manually for wayland clients.
The "current" rect includes the frame, so in order to keep the

This is a simple libcanberra abstraction object, so we are able
to play file/theme sounds without poking into GTK+/X11. Play
requests are delegated to a separate thread, so we don't block
UI on cards that are slow to wake up from power saving.
Placing persistant Wayland popups (e.g. not menus etc) in the o-r layer
breaks stacking order with other window trees (e.g. other client
windows), as the menu would get stuck in the o-r layer, i.e. on top,
even if the parent of the popup got lowered.
Fix this by placing the popups in the normal layer, relying on
transient-ness to keep stacking correct.
It's a UI pattern that has been superseded by client-side decorations,
apps that used to set the hint have generally moved on to headerbars.
Given that and the limitation to server-side decorated X11 windows,
GTK4 removed the client-side API for setting the hint, it's time to
follow suite and retire the feature.

Commit 8d3e05305 ("window: Force update monitor on hot plugs") added the
flag `META_WINDOW_UPDATE_MONITOR_FLAGS_FORCE` passed to
`update_monitor()` from `update_for_monitors_changed()`.
However, `update_for_monitors_changed()` may choose to call another code
path to `move_between_rects()` and `meta_window_move_resize_internal()`
eventually.
As `meta_window_move_resize_internal()` does not use the "force" flag,
we may still end up in case where the window->monitor is left unchanged.
To avoid that problem, add a new `MetaMoveResizeFlags` that
`update_for_monitors_changed()` can use to force the monitor update from
`meta_window_move_resize_internal()`.

It relied on indices in arrays determining tile direction and
non-obvious bitmask logic to translate to _GTK_EDGE_CONSTRAINTS. Change
this to explicitly named edge constraints, and clear translation methods
that converts between mutters and GTK+s edge constraint formats.
An unnecessary memory optimization, storing the tile mode as a 2 bit
unsigned integer, was used. While saving a few bytes, it made debugging
harder. Remove the useless byte packing.
This is the filename convention you get when you define a shared module

In order to allow a window with a custom rule placement to be moved
together with its parent, the final rule used derived from the
constraining were used for subsequent constraints. This was not enough
as some constraining cannot be translated into a rule, such as sliding
across some axis.
Instead, make it a bit simpler and just remember the position relative
to the parent window, and use that the next time.
This is a rework of 5376c31a33 which

With Wayland, a window is not showing until it's shown. Until this
patch, the initial state of MetaWindow, on the other hand, was that a
window is initialized as showing. This means that for a window to
actually be classified as shown (MetaWindow::hidden set to FALSE),
something would first have to hide it.
Normally, this wasn't an issue, as normally we'd first create a window,
determine it shouldn't be visible (due to missing buffer), hide it
before the next paint, then eventually show it. This doesn't work if
mutter isn't drawing any frames at the moment (e.g. the user switched
VT), as we'd miss the hiding before showing as e result of a buffer
being attached. The most visible side effect is that a window can't be
moved as the window actor remains frozen.
This commit fixes this issue by correctly classifying a newly created
Wayland window as "hidden".

Changes in window decoration result in the window being reparented

A window placed using a placement rule should keep that relative
position even if the parent window moves, as the position tied to the
parent window, not to the stage. Thus, if the parent window moves, the
child window should move with it.
In the implementation in this commit, the constraints engine is not
used when repositioning the children; the window is simply positioned
according to the effective placement rule that was derived from the
initial constraining, as the a xdg_popup at the moment cannot move
(relative its parent) after being mapped.

Commit a3da4b8d5b changed updating of
window monitors to always use take affect when it was done from a
non-user operation. This could cause feed back loops when a non-user
driven operation would trigger the changing of a monitor, which itself
would trigger changing of the monitor again due to a window scale
change.
The reason for the change, was that when the window monitor changed due
to a hot plug, if it didn't actually change, eventually the window
monitor pointer would be pointing to freed memory.
Instead of force updating the monitor on all non-user operations, just
do it on hot plugs. This allows for the feedback loop preventing logic
to still do what its supposed to do, without risking dangling pointers
on hot plugs.

We refuse to move focus while a grab operation is in place. While this
generally makes sense, there's no reason why the window that owns the
grab shouldn't be given the regular input focus as well - we pretty
much assume that the grab window is also the focus window anyway.
In fact there's a strong reason for allowing the focus change here:
If the grab window isn't the focus window, it probably has a modal
transient that is focused instead, and a likely reason for the focus
request is that the transient is being unmanaged and we must move
the focus elsewhere.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/15
Previously we relied on the test-client to make sure that a window was
shown. For X11, we did not need to do anything, but for Wayland we had
to make sure we had drawn the first frame, otherwise mutter wouldn't
have a buffer making the window not showable.
Doing it this way doesn't work anymore however, since the 'after-paint'
event will be emitted even if we didn't actually paint anything. This is
the case with current Gtk under Wayland, where we won't draw until the
compositor has configured the surface. In effect, this mean we'll get a
dummy after-paint emission before the first frame is actually painted.
Instead, move the verification that a "show" command has completed by
having the test-runner wait for a "shown" signal on the window, which is
emitted in the end of meta_window_show(). This requires an additional
call to gdk_display_sync() in the test-client after creating the window,
to make sure that the window creation vents has been received in the
compositor.
As of "stack-tracker: Keep override redirect windows on top"
(e3d5bc077d), we always sorted all
override redirect on top of regular windows, as so is expected by
regular override redirect windows. This had an unwanted consequence,
however, which is that we should still not sort such override redirect
windows on top if they are behind the guard window, as that'd result in
windows hidden behind it now getting restacked anyway.
Fix this by only sorting the override redirect windows that are found
above the guard window on top. This fixes the override-redirect stacking
test.
xdg-foreign clears the `transient_for` of a modal dialog when its
imported parent is destroyed, which would later cause a crash in
`constrain_modal_dialog()` because the transient `NULL`.
So in case a modal dialog has no parent, do not try to constrain it
against its parent.

If we wait with opening the X11 window decoration GDK connection, we
might end up with a terminated X11 server before we finish
initializing, depending on the things happening after spawning Xwayland

Under Xorg the cursor size preference was pre-scaled originating from
gtk, while with Wayland it came directly from GSettings remaining
unscaled. Under Xwayland this caused the X11 display code to set the

by the equivalent code in gtk, but not always.
Fix this by always having the cursor size preference unscaled, scaling
the size correctly where it's used, depending on how it's used.

The MetaCloseDialog implementation object may stay artifically alive

In the old, synchronous X.org world, we could assume that
a state change always meant a synchronizing the window
geometry right after. After firing an operation that
would change the window state, such as maximizing or
tiling the window,
With Wayland, however, this is not valid anymore, since
Wayland is asynchronous. In this scenario, we call
meta_window_move_resize_internal() twice: when the user
executes an state-changing operation, and when the server
ACKs this operation. This breaks the previous assumptions,
and as a consequence, it breaks the GNOME Shell animations
in Wayland.
The solution is giving the MetaWindow control over the time
when the window geometry is synchronized with the compositor.
That is done by introducing a new result flag. Wayland asks
for a compositor sync after receiving an ACK from the server,
while X11 asks for it right away.

When maximizing a window, the previous location is saved so that
un-maximize would restore the same original window location.
However, if a Wayland client starts with a window maximized, the
previous location will be 0x0, so if we have to force placement in
xdg_toplevel_set_maximized(), we should update the location as well so
that the window is placed on the right monitor when un-maximizing.
For that purpose, add a new flag to force the update of the window
location, and use that flag from xdg_toplevel_set_maximized().

When closing a window and showing a new one, the new one may not be
granted input focus until it gets a buffer on Wayland.
If another window is chosen to receive focus and raised on top of stack,
the newly mapped window is focused but placed underneath that other
window.
Meaning that for Wayland surfaces, we need to defer adding the window to
the stack until we actually get to show it, once we have a buffer
attached.
Rather that checking the windowing backend prior to decide if a window
is stackable or not, introduce a new vfunc is_stackable() which tells
if a window should be added to the stack regardless of the underlying
windowing system.
Also add meta_window_is_in_stack() API rather than checking the stack
position directly (replacing the define WINDOW_IN_STACK only available
in stack.c) and remove a window from the stack only if it is present
in the stack, so that the test in meta_stack_remote() becomes
irrelevant.

The reason why multiple keycodes could be mapped to a single keysym was
to support having both KEY_FAVORITES and KEY_BOOKMARK map to
XF86Favorites. However, iterating through all layout levels adding all
key codes has severe consequences on layouts with levels that map
things like numbers and arrow. The result is that keybindings that
should only have been added for keycodes from the first level, are
replaced by some unexpected keycode where the same keysym was found on
another level.
An example of this is the up-arrow key and l symbol. Normally you'd find
both the up-arrow symbol and the l symbol on the first level and be done
with it. However, on the German Neo-2 layout, layout level 4 maps the
KEY_E to the l symbol, while layout level 4 maps KEY_E to up-arrow.
Which ever gets to take priority is arbitrary, but for this particular
case KEY_E incorrectly mapped to up-arrow instead of the l symbol,
causing the keyboard shortcut Super+l, which would normally lock the
screen, to trigger the workspace-up (Super+up-arrow) key binding.

GTK has the ability to handle client-decorated windows
in such a way that the behavior of these windows must
match the behavior of the current window manager.
In Mutter, windows can be tiled horizontally (and, in
the future, vertically as well), which comes with a few
requirements that the toolkit must supply. Tiled windows
have their borders' behavior changed depending on the
tiled position, and the toolkit must be aware of this
information in order to properly match the window manager
behavior.
In order to provide toolkits with more precise and general
data regarding resizable and constrained edges, this patch
makes MetaWindow track its own edge constraints.
This will later be used by the backends to send information
to the toolkit.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751857
When computing a potential match for a tiled window, there is a
chance we face the case where 2 windows really complement each
other's tile mode (i.e. left and right) but they have different
sizes, and their borders don't really touch each other.
In that case, the current code would mistakenly assume they're
tile matches, and would resize them with either a hole or an
overlapping area between windows. This is clearly a misbehavior
that is a consequence of the previous assumptions pre-resizable
tiles.
This patch adapts the tile match algorithm to also consider the
touching edges when computing the matching tile, unless:
* the window is not currently tiled (for example when computing
the tile preview)
* the window is currently resized in tandem with an existing
tile match

When a pair of tiled windows are grouped together, they
are treated as parts of a whole and interacting with one
affects the other.
Following the idea that sibling tiled windows are treated
as part of the same group, they should also be raised and
lowered together.
It is still possible to break tiled windows grouping by
simply untiling the window with the keyboard or by grabbing
and resizing or moving the window with the cursor.
This patch makes sibling tiled windows be lowered and raised
in tandem. For future reference, this behavior is documented
in [1].

There is a variable in meta_window_edge_resistance_for_resize
that isn't really helpful: it just assumes TRUE, and is passed

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645153
When windows are tiled, it improves the interaction with
them when they have a set of snapping edges relative to
the monitor. For example, when there's a document editor
and a PDF file opened, I might want to rescale the former
to 2/3 of the screen and the latter to 1/3.
These snapping sections are not really tied to any other
window, and only depend on the current work area of the
window. Thus, it is not necessary to adapt the current
snapping edge detection algorithm.
This patch adds the necessary code in edge-resistance.c
to special-case tiled windows and allow them to cover
1/4, 1/3 and 1/2 (horizontally) of the screen. These
values are hardcoded.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645153
After the introduction of the possibility to resize tiled windows,
it is a sensible decision to make windows aware of their tiling
match. A tiling match is another window that is tiled in such a
way that is the complement of the current window.
The newly introduced behavior attepts to make tiling as smooth as
possible, with the following rules:
* Windows now compute their tile match when tiling and, if there's
a match, they automatically complement the sibling's width.
* Resizing a window with a sibling automatically resizes the sibling
too to be the complement of the window's width.
* It is not possible to resize below windows' minimum widths.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645153
Now that tiled windows are resizable, the user may grow a tiled
windows until it covers the entire work area. As this makes the
window state mostly indistinguishable from maximization, avoid
subtle differences by properly maximizing the window in that case.

Currently tiled windows are not resizable and their size is fixed
to half the screen width. Adjust the code to work with fractions
other than half, and allow users to adjust the split by dragging
the window edge that is not constrained by a monitor edge.
Follow-up patches will improve on that by resizing neighboring
tiled windows by a shared edge, and making the functionality
available to client-side decorated windows implementing the
new edge constraints protocol.
Now that the preview tile mode has been split from the window's
tile_mode property, it is much more natural to pass the requested
tile_mode to the tile() function instead of setting it externally
and calling the function to apply the state.
The existing semantics of the tile_mode property are terribly confusing,
as it depends on some other property whether it represents the requested
or current mode. Clear this up by just using separate variables for the
two. As it is unlikely that we will ever support more than one tile
preview, we can track the requested mode globally instead of adding
another per-window variable.

update_num_workspaces() is a no-op when the number of workspaces
did not actually change. That is fine, except that we still want
to initialize the _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS hint on startup to not
break components like nautilus-desktop that rely on it.
