It might not be there when shutting down, so get it from a more managed
place. Note that this isn't strictly needed right now, but eventually,
the MetaWaylandCompositor pointer will be cleared using a g_clear*()
helper, which clears the pointer before freeing the instance, which
wouldn't work here.

MetaDisplay does a lot of things, and is a central part to anything
window management. To let Wayland units have an easier time tearing
down, make it so that the Wayland infrastructure is terminated before
MetaDisplay.
This also makes sure that X11 support is turned off, so that we don't
stumble upon Xwayland terminating due to the Wayland socket connection
being broken. Will mitigate that in a better way in a later commit.

We might not be the only entity holding on to the X11 GdkDisplay,
meaning the X11 connection will stay alive indefinitely, e.g. if the gjs
context has some reference to it.
Avoid running into issues due to X11 connection errors by setting the
libX11 handlers to no-ops, so when we are terminating; that means the
GDK X11 connection can stay "alive" until its too late, and we'll just
silently ignore any connection errors that may happen due to the
lingering GDK display reference.

For Xwayland, mutter creates the sockets in the standard /tmp/.X11-unix
directory.
Yet, if that directory already exists, it may have been created by
another user with full control over the created socket.
To avoid that issue, if the directory /tmp/.X11-unix already exists,
check that the permissions are as we expect, i.e. the directory belongs
to either root or the user herself, is writable and has the sticky bit.
Thanks to fabian@ritter-vogt.de for reporting that issue.

If `meta_xwayland_start_xserver()` returned via an error path, some of
the socket FDs were leaked.
Fix that, and add `steal_fd()` calls to make it clearer that FDs passed
to `g_subprocess_launcher_take_fd()` are transferred to it. There were
no bugs with how `GSubprocessLauncher` was being used.

Current Xwayland has marked the command line option "-listen" as
deprecated in favor of "-listenfd".
Use the pkg-config variable "have_listenfd" (if available) from Xwayland
to determine if we should use that option, to avoid a deprecation
warning when spawning Xwayland.

Mutter listens to two display connections, one for regular X11 clients
and another one for the so called "managed services".
Once an available display number is found for the regular X11 clients,
mutter would then redo the work to find another available display number
for the managed services.
Yet, it does so starting from the same initial display, which is a waste
of time since it just tried all displays to find the first available
one, so all these, including the regular display it just took, are now
in use.
So instead of starting over from the beginning when looking for a
display available for the managed services, continue from the next
display immediately after the one we found precedently.

Some X11 servers may not always create a lock file, yet mutter uses the
lock file to find a possible display number and then tries to bind to
the socket corresponding to that display number.
If it fails to bind, it will simply bail out. As a result, if an X11
server is already listening on that display but hadn't created a lock
file, mutter won't be able to start Xwayland.
To avoid that possible issue, make mutter retry with another display
for a given number of tries when binding fails even though the display
was supposed to be available based on the lock file presence.

The function choose_xdisplay() calls open_display_sockets() which calls
ensure_x11_unix_dir().
We don't need to do that from within the loop though, as the directory
/tmp/.X11-unix is the same regardless of the display number.
Move the call to ensure_x11_unix_dir() from open_display_sockets() to
choose_xdisplay() prior to enter the display loop.

In the shutdown paths we check with the X11 display whether there's
remaining clients. However this happens in paths that happen after
the MetaX11Display vanished in the case of Xwayland crash.
Since in that situation the clients are forcibly vanishing too,
skip the client check.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1677>
Closing automatically Xwayland once all relevant X11 clients are gone is
inherently racy, if a new client comes along right at the time we're
killing Xwayland.
Fixing the possible race conditions between mutter, Xwayland and the X11
clients may take some time.
Meanwhile, make that an experimental feature "autoclose-xwayland".
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1673>
Currently, mutter checks for the presence of X11 windows to decide
whether or not Xwayland can be terminated, when Xwayland is started on
demand.
Unfortunately, not all X11 clients will map a window all the time, an
X11 client may keep the X11 connection opened after closing all its
windows. In that case, we may terminate Xwayland while there are some
X11 client connected still, and terminating Xwayland will also kill
those X11 clients.
To avoid that issue, check the X11 clients actually connected using the
XRes extension. The XRes extension provides the PID of the (local) X11
clients connected to the Xserver, so we need to match that against the
actual executable names, and compare with a list of known executables
that we can safely ignore, such as ibus-x11 or gsd-xsettings.
We also check against our own executable name, considering that the X11
window manager is also an X11 client connected to the Xserver.
Also, XRes returning the PID of local clients only is not a problem
considering that Xwayland does not listen to remote connections.
However, if the user spawns a client remotely on another system using
ssh tunneling (ssh -X), only clients which actually map a window will
be accounted for.

To find XWayland output that should be the primary one, iterate through all
XWayland outputs, and compare their geometry to the geometry of the primary
logical monitor.
To avoid possible race conditions (Mutter's monitor configuration already
updated, but Xrandr not yet), set the output both after Randr notifications and
after 'monitors-changed' signal.

The XIOErrorExitHandler expects (Display *, void *) whereas mutter uses
(Display *, MetaX11Display *).
That causes a warning at build time:
warning: passing argument 2 of ‘XSetIOErrorExitHandler’ from
incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
813 | XSetIOErrorExitHandler (xdisplay, x_io_error_exit, display);
Actually, the MetaX11Display is not even used, so we can just use the
expected API and ignore the value.

If this call is available, we can turn libX11 IO errors (fatal by definition)
into something we can recover from. Try to dispose all X11 resources and close
the display instead, so the compositor can survive the event.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1447
The X server, including Xwayland, can be compiled with different X11
extensions enabled at build time.
When an X11 extension is built in the X server, it's usually also
enabled at run time. Users can chose to disable those extensions at run
time using the X server command line option "-extension".
However, in the case of Xwayland, it is spawned automatically by the
Wayland compositor, and the command line options are not configurable
by users.
Add a new setting to disable a selected set of X extension in Xwayland
at startup, without needing to rebuild Xwayland.
Of course, if Xwayland is not built with a given extension support in
the first place (which is the default for the security extension for
example), that option has no effect.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1405
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().
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1180
This is used by GDK and the X11 bits, but may also be used for
other initialization services we might need to run along with
Xwayland initialization.
However, as the -initfd argument in Xwayland is a fairly new
feature, add some meson build-time checks so that the feature
is handled transparently while allowing to explicitly set/unset
it.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/945
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
'xwayland: Do not queue frame callbacks unconditionally' changed the
frame callback behavior of Xwayland surfaces so that they behave the
same way as other actor surfaces (e.g. xdg-shell ones), except for the
case when they are initially assigned.
Remove this special casing as well including the now incorrect comment,
so that the Xwayland surfaces behave the same as the others in this
regard also when assigning.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/964
For the most part, a MetaWindow is expected to live roughly as long as
the associated wl_surface, give or take asynchronous API discrepancies.
The exception to this rule is handling of reparenting when decorating or
undecorating a window, when a MetaWindow on X11 is made to survive the
unmap/map cycle. The fact that this didn't hold on Wayland caused
various issues, such as a feedback loop where the X11 window kept being
remapped. By making the MetaWindow lifetime for Xwayland windows being
the same as they are on plain X11, we remove the different semantics
here, which seem to lower the risk of hitting the race condition causing
the feedback loop mentioned above.
What this commit do is separate MetaWindow lifetime handling between
native Wayland windows and Xwayland windows. Wayland windows are handled
just as they were, i.e. unmanaged together as part of the wl_surface
destruction; while during the Xwayland wl_surface destruction, the
MetaWindow <-> MetaWaylandSurface association is simply broken.

This allows us to implement more sophisticated logic for the different
cases. For DnD surfaces, use the geometry scale of the monitor where
the pointer is, instead of incorrectly assuming '1' as it was before.

With the addition of xauth support (commit a8984a81c), Xwayland would
rely only on the provided cookies for authentication.
As a result, running an Xclient from another VT (hence without the
XAUTHORITY environment variable set) would result in an access denied.
The same on X11 is granted because the local user is automatically
granted access to Xserver by the startup scripts.
Add the local user to xhost at startup on Xwayland so that the user can
still run a client by setting the DISPLAY as long as it's the same user
on the same host.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/735
There may be cases where a X11 client does not spawn any X11 windows (eg.
simple clients like xinput --list, or xlsclients), in this case the Xwayland
server would remain running until X11 windows happen to come and go in the
future.
Firing the shutdown timeout on restart caters for this, and would be undone
if the client maps X11 windows.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/728
Where the prepare_auth_file() call is, it does create a new one on every
respawn of Xwayland. This is not benefitial, as the XAUTHORITY envvar is
already fixed in the session.
Only create the XAuthority file once, and reuse it on future Xwayland
respawns.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/728
We only listen for those so we know there's no more X11 clients that we
should keep the Xwayland server alive for. Check first that we really did
request Xwayland to be handled on demand for this, otherwise the check is
superfluous, even harmful.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/719
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.
