XkbNewKeyboardNotify informs the client that there is a new keyboard
driving the VCK. It is essentially meant to notify that the keyboard
possibly has a different range of HW keycodes and/or a different
geometry.
But the translation of those keycodes remain the same, and we don't
do range checks or geometry checks (beyond using KEY_GRAVE as "key
under Esc", but that is hardly one). It seems we can avoid the
busywork that is releasing all our passive grabs, reloading the keymap
and regenerating the keycombos and restoring the passive grabs.

Modal ungrabs may be followed by other clients trying to grab themselves,
flush the connection so we ensure the right order of events on the Xserver
side.
An example of this is js/ui/modalDialog.js in gnome-shell, as the alt-F2
dialog may launch X11 clients trying to grab themselves, commit a40daa3c22
in gnome-shell handled the case and added a gdk_display_sync() call to
ensure no grab existed at the time of executing.
This commit aims to achieve the same built in MetaBackend. A full sync
seems excessive though, as we just need to make sure the server got the
messages queued before the other side tries to grab, a XFlush seems
sufficient for this.
The order and way include macros were structured was chaotic, with no
real common thread between files. Try to tidy up the mess with some
common scheme, to make things look less messy.
meta_backend_x11_grab_device is performing X server clock comparison
using the MAX macro, which comes down to a simple greater-than.
Use XSERVER_TIME_IS_BEFORE, which is a better macro for X server
clock comparisons, as it accounts for 32-bit wrap-around.

Force update the cursor renderer after theme or size changes; otherwise
we'll be stuck with the old theme and/or size until something else

X server running and making roundtrip to it

While MetaStage, MetaWindowGroup and MetaDBusDisplayConfigSkeleton don't
appear explicitly in the public API, their gtypes are still exposed via
meta_get_stage_for_screen(), meta_get_*window_group_for_screen() and
MetaMonitorManager's parent type. Newer versions of gjs will warn about
undefined properties if it encounters a gtype without introspection
information, so expose those types to shut up the warnings.

Now that we've removed the X11 specific backend of the idle monitor,
add back a cut-down version of it for the explicit purpose of being
told about idle time resets when XTest events are used.
XTest events are usually used by test suites and remote display software
to inject events into an X11 session. We should consider somebody moving
the mouse remotely to be just as "active" as somebody moving it locally.

And use the old "native" backend for both X11 and Wayland. This will
allow us to share fixes between implementations without having to delve
into the XSync X11 extension code.

This was done by the clutter X11 backend before prior to introducing
MetaRenderer, but during that work, enabling of said extension was lost.

A comparison in translate_device_event() does not account for the fact
that X's clock wraps about every 49.7 days. When triggered, this causes
an unresponsive GUI.
Replace simple less-than comparison with XSERVER_TIME_IS_BEFORE macro,
which accounts for the wrapping of X's clock.

Adding an internal signal and use it to update the internal state before

Add API to get the layout group (layout index) currently active. In the
native backend this is done by fetching the state directly from the
evdev backend; on X11 this works by listening for XkbStateNotify
events, caching the layout group value.

Don't wait for clutter to initialize for connecting to X11; do it when

When running nested, the pointer can be outside of the stage, meaning
outside of any logical monitor. Handle this when getting the current
logical monitor by falling back to the first logical monitor when the
pointer coordinate is outside of any logical monitor.

Set up things so that if the INTEL_swap_event extension is not present,
but the driver is known to have good thread support, we use an extra
thread and call glXWaitVideoSync() in the thread. This allows idles
to work properly, even when Mutter is constantly redrawing new frames;
otherwise, without INTEL_swap_event, we'll just block in glXSwapBuffers().

The method used for getting the current logical monitor (the monitor

Add support for drawing a stage using multiple framebuffers each making
up one part of the stage. This works by the stage backend
(ClutterStageWindow) providing a list of views which will be for
splitting up the stage in different regions.
A view layout, for now, is a set of rectangles. The stage window (i.e.
stage "backend" will use this information when drawing a frame, using
one framebuffer for each view. The scene graph is adapted to explictly
take a view when painting the stage. It will use this view, its
assigned framebuffer and layout to offset and clip the drawing
accordingly.
This effectively removes any notion of "stage framebuffer", since each
stage now may consist of multiple framebuffers. Therefore, API
involving this has been deprecated and made no-ops; namely
clutter_stage_ensure_context(). Callers are now assumed to either
always use a framebuffer reference explicitly, or push/pop the
framebuffer of a given view where the code has not yet changed to use
the explicit-buffer-using cogl API.
Currently only the nested X11 backend supports this mode fully, and the
per view framebuffers are all offscreen. Upon frame completion, it'll
blit each view's framebuffer onto the onscreen framebuffer before
swapping.
Other backends (X11 CM and native/KMS) are adapted to manage a
full-stage view. The X11 CM backend will continue to use this method,
while the native/KMS backend will be adopted to use multiple view
drawing.

The stage resizing was placed in the generic backend, which was only
run on certain configurations (when running nested or using the native
backend). This commits makes the resizing more explicit thus more
obvious.

MetaRenderer is meant to be the object responsible for rendering the

Introduce two new clutter backends: MetaClutterBackendX11 and
MetaClutterBackendNative. They are so far only wrap ClutterBackendX11

Emit a signal so that interested parties can recreate their FBOs and
queue a full scene graph redraw to ensure we don't end up showing
graphical artifacts.
This relies on the GL driver supporting the
NV_robustness_video_memory_purge extension and cogl creating a
suitable GL context. For now we only make use of it with the X backend
since the only driver with which this is useful is NVIDIA.

Ubuntu ships a patch in the X server that makes the group switch
keybindings only work on key release, i.e. the X server internal group
locking happens on key release which means that mutter gets the
XKB_KEY_ISO_Next_Group key press event, does its XLockGroup() call
with a new index and then, on key release, the X server moves the
index further again.
We can work around this without affecting our behavior in unpatched X
servers by doing a XLockGroup() every time we're notified of the
locked group changing if it doesn't match what we requested.

Use a specialized cursor renderer when running as a nested Wayand
compositor. This new renderer sets an empty X11 cursor and draws the

This fixes build error caused by commit 614d6bd. We can simply remove

If the user Alt-Tabs out of the window, we will be left thinking
the Alt key is still pressed since we don't see a release for it.
Solve this and other related issues for the nested X11 compositor
by selecting for KeymapStateMask which causes a KeymapNotify event
to be sent after each FocusIn, and when we get these events, update
the internal XKB state and send any necessary modifiers events to
clients.

Since mutter has two X connections and does damage handling on the
frontend while fence triggering is done on the backend, we have a race
between XDamageSubtract() and XSyncFenceTrigger() causing missed
redraws in the GL_EXT_X11_sync_object path.
If the fence trigger gets processed first by the server, any client
drawing that happens between that and the damage subtract being
processed and is completely contained in the last damage event box
that mutter got, won't be included in the current frame nor will it
cause a new damage event.
A simple fix for this would be XSync()ing on the frontend connection
after doing all the damage subtracts but that would add a round trip
on every frame again which defeats the asynchronous design of X
fences.
Instead, if we move fence handling to the frontend we automatically
get the right ordering between damage subtracts and fence triggers.

While we shouldn't normally receive crossing events for any windows
except the stage when running nested, we do in case we hold a pointer
grab - just ignore those events instead of taking down the user's
session.
If GL advertises this extension we'll use it to synchronize X with GL
rendering instead of relying on the XSync() behavior with open source
drivers.
Some driver bugs were uncovered while working on this so if we have
had to reboot the ring a few times, something is probably wrong and
we're likely to just make things worse by continuing to try. Let's
err on the side of caution, disable ourselves and fallback to the
XSync() path in the compositor.

For enter / leave events, which we use in the UI code, we need to make
sure that these coordinates are root-relative as well, otherwise the
cursor when entering frames might be incorrect.
If we're running as a nested compositor, we must not attempt to
passive grab on the root window, and we should be setting the
touch event mask on the stage window.

On X11, calling this function on meta_display_handle_events() will not catch
mouse events happening over clients, so poke directly in the backend for
XI_DeviceChanged events, which mutter will get on device switches.
The code has been slightly refactored so we deal with XIEvents at a single
handle_input_event() function.

The X server applies a default keymap to hotplugged keyboard
devices. To enforce our current settings we must re-upload the keymap
when a new keyboard shows up.
Note that setting the VCK keymap causes the server to propagate it
