Replace the default master clock with multiple frame clocks, each
driving its own stage view. As each stage view represents one CRTC, this
means we draw each CRTC with its own designated frame clock,
disconnected from all the others.
For example this means we when using the native backend will never need
to wait for one monitor to vsync before painting another, so e.g. having
a 144 Hz monitor next to a 60 Hz monitor, things including both Wayland
and X11 applications and shell UI will be able to render at the
corresponding monitor refresh rate.
This also changes a warning about missed frames when sending
_NETWM_FRAME_TIMINGS messages to a debug log entry, as it's expected
that we'll start missing frames e.g. when a X11 window (via Xwayland) is
exclusively within a stage view that was not painted, while another one
was, still increasing the global frame clock.
Addititonally, this also requires the X11 window actor to schedule
timeouts for _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN/_NET_WM_FRAME_TIMINGS event emitting,
if the actor wasn't on any stage views, as now we'll only get the frame
callbacks on actors when they actually were painted, while in the past,
we'd invoke that vfunc when anything was painted.

This also changes the view construction path used by the renderer view
to use the new 'add_view()' function, meaning we have a common entry
point for views into the renderer, which will be useful later on.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Before we'd create the view in init(), then continue poking at it in
realize(). Move all of the screen stage view initialization to
realize(), as that's when we have all the dependent state available.
This is possible since there is nothing needing it until realizing.

The repaint callbacks are not tied to repaint, thus a bit misleading.
What the functionality in the pre/post-paint callbacks here cares about
is when actually painting; the non-painting related parts has already
moved out to a *-update signal.
This also renames the related MetaWindowActorClass vfuncs, to align with
naming convention of the signals that it listens to.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Instead of going via MetaCompositor to know about when we updated
(confusingly named post-paint), use the new stage signal directly.
Note that this doesn't change the time frame callbacks are dispatched;
it's still not tied to actual painting even though it seemed so before
given the function names.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The clutter "thread" repaint callback are not tied to painting, but
indirectly to updating. What the cursor renderer cares about is when we
actually painted, as this is related to the OpenGL fallback paths.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
We'd emit multiple "presented" signals per frame, one for "sync" and one
for "completion". Only the latter were ever used, and removing the
differentiation eases the avoidance of cogl onscreen framebuffer frame
callback details leaking into clutter.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The vfunc was not tied to "paint", but was used by MetaWindowActorX11
as part of the "update" mechanisms. In order to make that more clear,
special case it in MetaWindowActorX11 by type checking the surface
actor, handling the case without MetaSurfacActor abstraction.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The synchronization must happen no matter the painting, as it in itself
might result in reported damage, making the stage actually painted. Thus
move it out of the "pre-paint" handler, to something explicitly not tied
to the painting itself - ClutterStage::before-update.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Instead of the 'pre-paint' signal on MetaCompositor, rely directly on
the 'before-update' signal on the stage. A reason for this is that the
callback should not only invoked in connection to painting, but updating
in general. Currently the 'pre-paint' signal is emitted no matter
whether there were any painting or not, but that's both misleading and
will go away.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Right now the stage only had a signal called 'after-paint' which was not
tied to painting but updating. Change this to offer 4 signals, for the 4
different stages:
* before-update - emitted in the beginning before the actual stage
updating
* before-paint - emitted before painting if there will be any stage
painting
* after-paint - emitted after painting if there was any stage painting
* after-update - emitted as a last step of updating, no matter whether
there were any painting or not
Currently there were only one listener, that should only really have
been called if there was any painting, so no changes to listeners are
needed.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The mutexes was used by ClutterTexture's async upload and to match GDK's
mutexes on X11. GDK's X11 connection does not share anything with
Clutter's, we don't have the Gdk Clutter backend left, and we have
already removed ClutterTexture, so lets remove these mutexes as well.

A frame clock dispatch doesn't necessarily result in a frame drawn,
meaning we'll end up in the idle state. However, it may be the case that
something still requires another frame, and will in that case have
requested one to be scheduled. In order to not dead lock, try to
reschedule directly if requested after dispatching, if we ended up in
the idle state.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The frame clock wouldn't be useable yet, but none the less, add API to
get the frame clock best suited for driving the actor. Currently this
translates to the fastest one, but that might change.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The frame clock is meant to eventually drive the painting of the view,
in contrast to the master frame clock painting every view on the stage.
Right now it's a useless place holder.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The native backend had a plain counter, and the X11 backend used the
CoglOnscreen of the screen; change it into a plain counter in
ClutterStageCogl. This also moves the global frame count setting to the
frame info constuctor.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
We currently have mutter set a global frame counter on the frame info in
the native backend, but in order to do this from clutter, change the
frame info construction from being implicitly done so when swapping
buffers to having the caller create the frame info and passing that to
the swap buffers call.
While this commit doesn't introduce any other changes than the API, the
intention is later to have the caller be able to pass it's own state
(e.g. the global frame count) along with the frame info.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
We had time unit conversion helpers (e.g. us2ms(), ns2us(), etc) in
multiple places. Clean that up by moving them all to a common file. That
file is clutter-private.h, as it's accessible by both from clutter/ and
src/.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Currently unused, but it's intention is to use as a initial refresh rate
for a with the stage view associated frame clock. It defaults to 60 Hz
if nothing sets it, but the native backend sets it to the associated
CRTCs current mode's refresh rate.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Without an associated actor, or explicit frame clock set, in the future
a timeline will not know how to progress, as there will be no singe
frame clock to assume is the main one. Thus, deprecate the construction
of timelines without either an actor or frame clock set.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The association is inactive, as in it doesn't do anything yet, but it
will later be used to determine what frame clock should be driving the
timeline by looking at what stage view the actor is currently on.
This also adapts sub types (ClutterPropertyTransition) to have
constuctors that takes an actor just as the new ClutterTimeline
constructor.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
This is so something outside of clutter-stage.c (i.e.
clutter-stage-view.c) can eventually do various things
_clutter_stage_do_update() does now while not redrawing the whole stage.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The MetaLater functionality needs to make sure an update is scheduled so
that it can run its callbacks etc. This used a ClutterTimeline (which is
an object more or less meant to drive animations markers, frames etc)
just to keep the master frame clock running. We're moving away from a
single master clock, so just schedule updates directly instead, with the
newly exposed API.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Devices are updated (repicked) as part of the stage update phase, as
their stacking, position and transform might have changed since since
the last update.
The redraw clip was used to avoid unnecessary updating of devices, if
the device in question had it's position outside of the redraw clip. If
the device coordinate was outside of the redraw clip, what was
underneith the device couldn't have changed.
What it failed to do, however, was to update devices if a relayout had
happened in the same update, as it checked the state whether a layout
had happened before attempting to do a relayout, effectively delaying
the device updating to the next update.
This commit changes the behavior to always update the device given the
complete redraw clip caused by all possible relayouts of the same update
as the device update happens in.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
We'd check if there was any queued redraw on the stage, but this is
inappropriate for two reasons:
1) A monitor and area screen cast source only cares about damage on a
subset of the stage.
2) The global pending-redraw is going away when paint scheduling will be
more view centric.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
This will allow anyone to finish any queued redraws making their
corresponding damage end up being posted to the stage views. This will
allow units to check whether, so far, any updates are queued on a
particular stage view.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
Add API to add and remove ClutterTimeline objects to the frame clock.
Just as the legacy master clock, having a timeline added to the frame
clock causes the frame clock to continuously reschedule updates until
the timeline is removed.
ClutterTimeline is adapted to be able to be driven by a
ClutterFrameClock. This is done by adding a 'frame-clock' property, and
if set, the timeline will add and remove itself to the frame clock
instead of the master clock.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1285
The timestamp comes from the GSource, meaning it's a more accurate
representation of when the frame started to be dispatched compared to
getting the current time in any callback.
Currently unused.
