Transfer none was achieved using a stack GArray in the stage which
would get resized to 0 at the end of every frame to "free" it.
In the case of direct scanout however, painting the next frame only
happens after leaving fullscreen again. Until then the array just kept
growing and because GArrays don't reallocate when shrunk, this memory
remained allocated even after leaving fullscreen.
There is no cache benefit from storing paint volumes this way, because
nothing accesses them after their immediate use in the calling code.
Also the reduced overhead from avoiding malloc calls seems negligible as
according to heaptrack this only makes up about 2-3% of the temporary
allocations.
Changing this to transfer full and removing the stack array simplifies
the code and fixes the "leak".

It was for a failed expriment that tried to mmap() dmabuf memory and
find damaged regions to decrease the amount that was eventually used to
write to an onscreen, but mmap:ing is only fast enough on intel, and
it's only relevant on various server GPUs. For it to be achievable, we
need to render to system memory in a way that we don't need to copy it
out of OpenGL, but that's currently not possible.

This is a step in cleaning up the Clutter context management. By making
it a GObject it's easier to add e.g. properties and features that helps
with introspection.
For now, this means the context creation is changed to go via a
"constructor" (clutter_create_context()). This is so that the global
context singleton can be mantained outsid of ClutterContext, until it
can be removed.

We might pick an actor that needs relayout. I've seen this happen inside
hiding / unmapping in particular. In this case, calculate_clear_area ()
will call clutter_actor_get_abs_allocation_vertices () which in turn
will force a relayout. However, this is not what we want, because:
1. We don't want to run layout during picking.
2. If the actor needs an allocation, then the pick stack could not have
used an up-to-date allocation, because it is not computed. Therefore
this clear area would use a potentially completely different
allocation than the one stored in the pick stack.
Thankfully, clear area seems to be used as a cache/optimization, so
let's just avoid computing it if the actor is not allocated.

In profilers with a timeline or flame graph views it is a very common
scenario that a span name must be displayed in an area too short to fit
it. In this case, profilers may implement automatic shortening to show
the most important part of the span name in the available area. This
makes it easier to tell what's going on without having to zoom all the
way in.
The current trace span names in Mutter don't really follow any system
and cannot really be shortened automatically.
The Tracy profiler shortens with C++ in mind. Consider an example C++
name:
SomeNamespace::SomeClass::some_method(args)
The method name is the most important part, and the arguments with the
class name will be cut if necessary in the order of importance.
This logic makes sence for other languages too, like Rust. I can see it
being implemented in other profilers like Sysprof, since it's generally
useful.
Hence, this commit adjusts our trace names to look like C++ and arrange
the parts of the name in the respective order of importance.

Scoped traces are less error prone, and they can still be ended

For frame updates in response to sporadic user interaction, this results
in input → output latency somewhere between the minimum possible and the
minimum plus the length of one display refresh cycle (assuming the frame
update can complete within a refresh cycle).
Applying a max_render_time based deadline which corresponds to higher
than the minimum possible latency would result in higher effective
minimum latency for sporadic user interaction.

The absolute modelview contains OpenGL coordinates, which have a higher
chance to not be invertible or, when doing so, introduce rounding
errors. These again often result in relative transforms becoming 3D
instead of 2D, making us miss optimized code paths down the line.
Thus cache stage-relative matrices instead, improving correctness and
possibly performance.
While on it also add some fast paths for cases where we can skip
calculating inverted matrices altogether and change variable names to be
more precise.

Apart from a few edge cases we can avoid walking the tree and transform

This used to be the HW device that triggered the crossing (i.e.
the mouse moving the pointer, etc), or the logical device if the
crossing event happened through other means than input device
events, e.g. relayouts.
The move to ClutterEvent constructors went a bit too far in
the simplifications and broke these expectations for input-generated
crossing events.
Make this event constructor behave like the other events: receive
a source device, and figure out the corresponding logical device from
there. Also pass the source device as it'd be expected, in the
input-induced crossing event generation paths.

So far, we expected all events to have input devices set on them, IM events
lost theirs with commit 6aa42d6dad. This somewhat made sense, because IM
events are not backed by any actual device, they are generated by us in
response to eg. an OSK key press.
To fullfil the assumption that all devices at least have a logical input
device set, pass the seat to the clutter_event_im_new() constructor and then
set the device to the logical keyboard device. The source_device we leave
empty, since there is no actual physical device that this event came from.

The assertion for !implicit_grab_cancelled in the
`grab_actor == old_grab_actor` case of
clutter_stage_notify_grab_on_pointer_entry() is meant to do a simple
sanity-check to ensure the grab machinery is working as intended: During a
seat grab, all input gets delivered to the tree inside the grab, and all
implicit grabs outside of that tree are cancelled.
When a new seat grab on the same actor as the existing one happens, we run
through the cancellation machinery for implicit grabs anyway, so we might as
well check that the assumption mentioned above holds true: By asserting that
no implicit grabs were cancelled, we know that no implicit grabs exist
outside of the existing seat grab tree.
This assertion is slightly over-eager though due to the way we set
implicit_grab_cancelled: We initialize it to TRUE in the
entry->press_count > 0 case and then only set it to FALSE once we find an
implicit grab that may remain active. If there are no implicit grabs though
(while entry->press_count is still >0), we never set implicit_grab_cancelled
to FALSE, triggering the assertion in question even though no implicit grabs
got cancelled.
There's two possible solutions for this: Either dropping the assertion, or
refactoring it so it observes the situation where the implicit grabs were
already undone. This commit implements the latter.

Adds va_marshallers to the ClutterStage signals. This allows for better

With commit be3bca01a7 in place, we now possibly skip early calls
to clutter_stage_repick_device() happening early during initialization.
These were also indirectly the ones that eventually ended up in
the first call to clutter_stage_pick_and_update_device() actually
initializing the PointerDeviceEntry.
With this no longer happening, we may end up with no PointerDeviceEntry
implicitly set up after initialization, which may fail if the first
event received from the seat pointer does not in fact trigger the
clutter_stage_pick_and_update_device() call necessary to make things
work from there on.
And this does indeed happen on touchpads, since the first input event
obtained after CLUTTER_DEVICE_ADDED is CLUTTER_TOUCHPAD_* instead
of CLUTTER_MOTION. This finds an unset PointerDeviceEntry and crashes
since the pointer device does still have no "presence" on the stage.
Fix this by making CLUTTER_TOUCHPAD_* events also trigger a
device update, so the fist event handled does always trigger the
necessary device update.

The clutter_seat_handle_event_post() function wants to handle
CLUTTER_DEVICE_ADDED/REMOVED to perform signal emission, but
checks (and asserts) that every event going through it has a
source device.
This is no longer quite true for IM events (they are attached
to the ClutterSeat's keyboard, not a HW device), so the assert
can now fire off (of course undesiredly).
But anyways, for events built through
clutter_event_device_notification_new() (the ones this function
is interested in, after all), it is already a precondition check
that the device is proper at the time of creating the event, so
asserting for it here is redundant.

Instead of separate pairs of short- and long-term maxima for each
measured step of the frame update process.
This should result in the render time estimate rising less often:
Previously it did whenever the measurement of any of at least 3 out of
4 steps reached a new maximum, even if that didn't result in a new
maximum for the whole update duration. Now it's only in the latter
case.
This should also result in a lower render time estimate (and thus
input→output latency) in general, since the variability of
measurements for each 3/4 steps doesn't always add up anymore. The flip
side of this is that it might result in missing a display refresh cycle
more often.

An input only grab is a ClutterGrab on the stage that doesn't have an
explicit actor associated with it. This is useful for cases where event
should be captured as if focus was stolen to some mysterious place that
doesn't have anything in the scene graph that represents it.
Internally, it's implemented using a 0x0 sized actor attached directly
to the stage, and a clutter action that consumes the events. An
input-only grab takes a handler, user data and a destroy function for
the user data. These are handed to the ClutterAction, which handles the
actual event handling.

A 2D actorless paint volume can't ever need `enlarge_for_effects` because

Paint volumes correctly become actorless where `clutter_actor_finish_layout`

If an actor's expand properties haven't been set explicitly, its
expand flags are computed by traversing its children.
However we currently also traverse into children when explicitly
setting "expand" to FALSE, because that is the default value and
the properties are only marked as explicitly-set when the value
actually changed.
Fix this, so propagating expand flags can be stopped without
hacks like
```c
g_object_set (actor, "x-expand", TRUE, NULL);
g_object_set (actor, "x-expand", FALSE, NULL);

Dispatch jitter is how much the dispatch interval has changed between
frames. It's a measure of sampling smoothness for events that are occurring
at a higher rate than the screen is refreshing:
* Mouse movement
* Clients rendering at swap interval zero
* Keyframe animation position
Zero jitter is ideal but will practically never happen, and a jitter value
of several thousand microseconds will be visible to the naked eye as stutter
even if you're maintaining a perfect frame rate.
To make the numbers easier to interpret we also log the jitter as a
percentage of the refresh interval.

This could happen when moving the cursor over GUIs that only redraw
in response to cursor movement. Mutter would experience alternating
cursor-only updates and page flips, and so the `max_render_time_allowed_us`
would jump between pessimised and optimised resulting in inconsistent
frame pacing.
Aside from fixing the smoothness problem this should also provide
lower latency cursor movement.

Currently, we let the same function handle key event filtering as they
are passed to the IM, and the IM events resulting in actions like text

This is different from "warping" as it doesn't necessarily result in a

The stage already maintains its own list of stage-views via
clutter_stage_peek_stage_views(), it's a bit superfluous to copy that list
around all the time into priv->stage_views of ClutterActor. Let's deal with
that by returning clutter_stage_peek_stage_views() when
clutter_actor_peek_stage_views() gets called for the stage.
In order to make sure ClutterActor::stage-views-changed still gets emitted
correctly for the stage, always emit that signal on the ClutterStage when
the stage views get invalidated. This now depends on the backend only
actually invalidating the views and calling
clutter_stage_clear_stage_views() when things have actually changed, but
that should be the case.
This needs a change in one of the stage-views tests, namely the one which
tests stage-view-changed emission on the stage: Here we now see an emission
of stage-views-changed, but that signal emission actually seems correct.

While we're now doing a fairly good job at not needing those matrices

With commit 5a565b4258, we changed
clutter_actor_finish_layout() to be not only about updating stage views,
but also take care of updating the visible_paint_volume, for that we
started doing a full tree traversal of all mapped actors.
This can be quite a performance issue, apparently especially on certain
ARM devices, where the simple tree traversal can take as long as 2ms.
This is precious time we need to paint our next frame, so lets do a bit
more work to avoid those useless traversals.

We're using clutter_stage_schedule_update() now from ClutterActor to kick
off the stage updating machinery when a redraw needs to happen.
This introduced a bunch of unnecessary calls to
clutter_stage_schedule_update() and thus
clutter_stage_view_schedule_update() when multiple actors request redraws
during the same stage update cycle, which is a very common case.
Cut off all those unnecessary calls by bailing out in
clutter_stage_schedule_update() when updates are already queued.

Using a list of heap allocated ClutterPaintVolumes adds quite a bit of
unnecessary overhead: It means for every single redraw clip we allocate a
list and a paint volume on the heap.
Let's avoid all those heap allocations by using a GArray with static
ClutterPaintVolumes instead.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2679>
So far our logic for queueing redraws goes like this: Actor notices that it
needs to redraw -> actor tells stage that it needs to redraw via
clutter_stage_queue_actor_redraw() -> stage collects more and more redraws
into a QueueRedrawList before the actual stage update happens -> when
that happens, the stage collects the actual redraw clips from the actors via
clutter_actor_get_redraw_clip().
The logic behind this QueueRedrawList was that by storing a list of
redraw entries on the stage, way we can avoid traversing the whole actor
tree one more time to build the redraw clip before the stage update.
These days we have clutter_actor_finish_layout() though, which is basically
exactly that, a whole actor tree traversal that happens before every stage
update.
Since we have that now, we might as well get rid of the whole dance back and
forth between ClutterStage and ClutterActor, and simply merge the logic to
queue redraws into the finish-layout step.

If no actors have changed their positions and we're only repainting
because a window needs a repaint, the paint volumes of all actors
remain unchanged. There is no reason to redo those paint volumes on every
stage update.
So introduce caching and invalidation logic for the visible_paint_volume
that allows us to avoid a ton of matrix multiplications that right now
are happening for the whole mapped actor tree on every redraw.
Note that this removes two places where the visible paint volume is set
to an empty paint volume: This is a compromise so that we can keep
around the cached pv when hiding and showing an actor, it does "regress"
one case though: When hiding -> moving -> showing an actor, we'll now
include the old paint volume of the actor in the redraw clip on show (even
though redrawing that old region is not necessary, the actor was hidden
after all). This results in a bit of overpaint in this very specific case,
but for the sake of simplicity let's not care about that.

This aims to reduce the amount of pixels that have to be redrawed on the
screen on a clipped actor redraw in case using the union of two

Since the last commit, ClutterStage automatically cancels an implicit
grab (including all its ClutterActions) when a conflicting ClutterGrab
appears.
This means we no longer have to look out for GRAB_NOTIFY crossings in
ClutterGestureAction and can instead depend on the sequence_cancelled()
vfunc for this.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
A ClutterGrab takes precedence over implicit grabs, so when one happens,
let's check which part of the implicit grab tree is inside the new
ClutterGrab. Cancel and remove the parts which aren't, and if nothing
is in there anymore, cancel the whole implicit grab.
Emitting crossing events correctly here is getting quite tricky:
- When the implicit grab didn't get cancelled by the ClutterGrab, we
simply want to emit all GRAB_NOTIFY crossings to the implicit grab, as
we do with all other crossings.
- When the implicit grab did get cancelled and the new ClutterGrab wants
to emit ENTER crossings, we want those to be emitted to the actual
targets, so cancel the implicit grab before emission.
- In the last case where the implicit grab did get cancelled and the new
ClutterGrab wants to emit LEAVE crossings, those should be emitted to
the implicit grab again, so we cancel the grab only after the emission
of those.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
Now that we have two kinds of grabs, the intricacies of event delivery

We're almost there, everything is in place to notify ClutterActions
about a sequence getting pulled away under its feet.
The only thing that's missing is the actual notification to actions now,
so let's do that.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
Another baby step just like the last commit: This commit takes care of
the opposite case: An action handling a sequence event stops further
emission of events to actors.
Since sequences remain around for longer than the context of just a
single event, it makes sense to provide a way to "claim" those sequences
even when outside of event handling context, so introduce API for that.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
As soon as any event of a sequence is handles/stopped during emission,
all actors and actions that would have gotten to see it afterwards have
a big problem: If that event was a TOUCH_END event, the actor/action is
forever going to think that this touch is still active.
For ClutterActions, we're going to handle this by introducing a way to
send them a notification when stuff like this happens.
As a baby step towards all that, make event emission exclusive to actors
as soon as any actor stopped an event.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
We'll soon introduce a new gesture tracking framework which heavily
depends on ClutterActions seeing all events of a sequence. For this to
work, a larger change to event delivery is needed: Implicit grabbing of
all events for button and touch press->motion->release sequences to
ensure ClutterActions continue receiving events for the whole sequence.
This commit takes care of that: At the start of an event sequence we
collect all the event-handling actors and actions to a GArray that lives
in the PointerDeviceEntry, and then deliver all events belonging to
that sequence to the same actors/actions until the sequence ends.
To avoid events getting pulled from under our feet when mutters event
filter returns CLUTTER_EVENT_STOP, this also introduces private API
(maybe_lost_implicit_grab()) on ClutterStage so that we can't end up
with stale sequences.
Note that this also slightly changes behavior when it comes to event
delivery to actions: Because we now store actions separated from their
actors, any action returning CLUTTER_EVENT_STOP now stops event
propagation immediately. That was different before, where we'd emit
events to all actions of the actor and only then stop propagation.
Note that this isn't handling ClutterGrabs correctly right now,
this will be a little tricky, so we'll take care of that in a future
commit.
To handle actors getting destroyed or unmapped during a grab, listen to
notify::grab on the deepmost actor in the implicit grab tree. This gives
us a notification when any actor inside the tree goes unmapped.

A fairly small refactor, move the emission of events to actions from
clutter_actor_event() to stage level.
We do this because in the future we'll need to know on stage level
whether events were handled by an actor or by an action.

_clutter_actor_handle_event() currently allocates a new GPtrArray on the
heap for every single event emission, let's avoid this by keeping an
array around in ClutterStage and reusing that.
This is moving the last few bits of event emission into ClutterStage,
which will be useful when we introduce implicit grabbing in subsequent
commits.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
There's no real reason to keep those events exclusive to the stage, some
actors or actions might want to get notified about proximity events too,
so propagate them like any other event.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
Right now and due to loads of refactorings lately, the event emission
paths are a bit cluttered (ha ha ha) around in Clutter. For example the
event target actor gets set in clutter-main.c, but event emission is
actually managed by ClutterStage these days.
Since we'll introduce implicit grabbing of touch/button-press sequences
soon, let's shuffle things around a bit to make that easier:
Move event emission to the stage, it now gets a ClutterEvent without any
extra context like the target actor from clutter-main. The stage then
looks up the target actor itself and emits the event to the appropriate
actors in the scenegraph. A special path is introduced for emitting
crossing events, because here the event-receiving actors don't follow
the "capture+bubble from pointer actor to grab actor" rule.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2342>
Crossing events should never be stopped during event emission. We
already have a check that enforces this in clutter_actor_event(), but
ClutterActions still sometimes try to stop crossing events from
propagating.
Improve that situation and return CLUTTER_EVENT_PROPAGATE when handling
crossings in ClutterActions, too.

There's still a possibility that some events remain within the
`ClutterMainContext` when it's being unref-ed for the last time (as seen
on asan logs). Make sure they get freed by using
`g_async_queue_new_full()` and specifying the appropriate destroy
function.

Now that dynamic max render time uses a new algorithm and takes dispatch
lateness into account, this seems worth a shot. We'll see how it works

The net result compared to before these changes is still slightly higher

Store only two values per kind of duration: The short term and long term
maximum.
The short term maximum is updated in each frame clock dispatch. The long
term maximum is updated at most once per second: If the short term
maximum is higher, the long term maximum is updated to match it.
Otherwise, a fraction of the delta between the two maxima is subtracted
from the long term maximum.
Compared to the previous algorithm:
* The calculcations are simpler.
* The calculated max render time has a slow exponential drop-off (by at
most a few milliseconds every second) instead of potentially abruptly
dropping after as few as 16 frames.
This should fix https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/4830
since the short term maximum should always include a sample from the
clock's second tick.

Dispatch lateness is the difference between when we wanted frame clock
dispatch to run and when it actually started running. This can be up to
1ms even under normal circumstances due to process scheduling
granularity, or even higher under load.
This keeps track of dispatch lateness of the last 16 frame clock
dispatches, and incorporates the maximum into the dynamic render time
estimate.
