Since commit 2ceac4a device-related X11 events aren't processed anymore,
causing the input settings not to handle the devices.
This is due to the fact that we may never call clutter_seat_handle_event_post()
for such events.
While this is always happening for the native backend, it doesn't happen in
X11 because the events are removed from the queue as part of
meta_x11_handle_event(), and thus no event was queued to the stage by the
backend events source.
This also makes sure that the event post handler is called after the
event is actually processed, and not before an event is queued.

To make the double buffered shadow buffer damaged tiles detection
feasable, a new EGL extension is needed for creating FBO's backed by
a custom CPU memory buffer, instead of DMA buffers, as DMA buffers can
be very slow to read, much slower than just painting the shadow buffer
directly.
Leave the code there, since such an EGL extension is intended to be
added, but hide it behind an env var so that it isn't enabled by
accident.

Regarding the sequence = 0 fallback: in some cases (moving a cursor
plane on atomic amdgpu) we get sequence = 0 in the page flip callback.
This seems like an amdgpu bug, so work around it by assuming a sequence
delta of 1 (it is equal to 1 because of the sequence != 0 check above).
Sequence can also legitimately be 0 if we're lucky during the 32-bit
overflow, in which case assuming a delta of 1 will give more or less
reasonable values on this and next presentation, after which it'll be
back to normal.
Sequence is also 0 on mode set fallback and when running nested, in
which case assuming a delta of 1 every frame is the best we can do.

This concerns only the cases when the presentation timestamp is received
directly from the device (from KMS or from GLX). In the majority of
cases this timestamp is already MONOTONIC. When it isn't, after this
commit, the current value of the MONOTONIC clock is sampled instead.
The alternative is to store the clock id alongside the timestamp, with
possible values of MONOTONIC, REALTIME (from KMS) and GETTIMEOFDAY (from
GLX; this might be the same as REALTIME, I'm not sure), and then
"convert" the timestamp to MONOTONIC when needed. An example of such a
conversion was done in compositor.c (removed in this commit). It would
also be needed for the presentation-time Wayland protocol. However, it
seems that the vast majority of up-to-date systems are using MONOTONIC
anyway, making this effort not justified.

KMS and GLX device timestamps have microsecond precision, and whenever
we sample the time ourselves it's not the real presentation time anyway,
so nanosecond precision for that case is unnecessary.
The presentation timestamp in ClutterFrameInfo is in microseconds, too,
so this commit makes them have the same precision.

ClutterText has a bit of a mess around its signalling of changes to the
cursor position: There's the position (deprecated) and cursor-position
property, and there's the cursor-changed and cursor-event (deprecated)
signal. The two properties are supposed to be notified when the cursor
position changes, and the two signals are notified when the cursor
position or size changes.
Now the properties notifications and the signals get fired in two very
different places: The two properties are notified in
clutter_text_set_cursor_position(), while the signals are fired during
the paint cycle when we figured out the final cursor position. The
latter is a pretty bad idea, nobody expects such a signal to be fired
during painting, and also changes to the text that are done in the
signal handler will only be applied on the next paint.
Now StEntry listens to cursor position changes via cursor-changed and
invalidates its text shadow, but since the signal is only notified
during the paint, the old text shadow will still get applied. To fix
this, also emit the cursor-changed signal when we notify the
cursor-position property.

This removes the responsibility of tracking these from the backend to
the base object. The backends are instead responsible for calling the
function to update the values.
For the native backend, it's important that this happens on the correct
thread, so each time either of these states may change, post a idle
callback on the main thread that sets the, at the time of queuing said
callback, up to date state. This means that things on the main thread
will always be able to get a "new enough but not too new" state when
listening on the 'notify::' signals and getting the property value
after.

In an x11 session, we don't receive motion events from X when the
pointer is above a window. Since commit 734a1859 we only do picking on
motion events though, which means when clicking the mouse to focus a
window, we don't repick and might still think the pointer is hovering
above another window or actor, ending up not focussing the window.
Fix this by always repicking on BUTTON_PRESS events. While this is not
necessary in the wayland session, button presses happen rarely compared
to motion events, so it's not a performance regression to do it in
Wayland sessions, too.

ClutterText allows setting a custom PangoAttrList, and St uses that to
set the text style it's reading from CSS. One style St enforces using
this mechanism is the text color and setting the text color should
obviously not affect the size of the layout. ClutterText does queue a
relayout in that case though because it unconditionally queues a
relayout when updating the PangoAttrList.
We can avoid this relayout by reusing an optimization ClutterText has:
clutter_text_queue_redraw_or_relayout() will only queue a relayout if
the requested size of the layout changed.

With 734a185915 an optimization was
introduced to only pick on events which can actually cause the pointer
to move. In case of touch events, the first event (TOUCH_BEGIN) will
already move the touchpoint though, and we'll send our crossing
CLUTTER_ENTER event to the actor this TOUCH_BEGIN happened on.
So fix this embarrassing bug that caused touch input to break by also
picking to find an event-actor on TOUCH_BEGIN events.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1733>
Aside from ENTER/LEAVE, there are only two kinds of events that can move
the pointer, motion events and touch update events. Everything else
keeps the pointer at it's current position.
The reason we pick inside _clutter_process_event_details() is that we
want to set the event actor. Now if an event can't move the pointer, it
also can't change the event actor (well, it can subsequently by
triggering changes to the scenegraph, but that's handled elsewhere), so
there's no need to pick a new event actor when we get those events.
Instead, simply reuse the actor that's already associated with the
current input device as the event actor for non MOTION/TOUCH_UPDATE
events.
Events where a device or a touchpoint goes away (like DEVICE_REMOVED or
TOUCH_END/CANCEL) also affect picking, they don't need a repick, but
instead the actor associated with the device/touchpoint needs to be
unassociated. This is ensured by invoking remove_device_for_event() on
those events and will not be affected by this change.
This should improve performance while scrolling quite a bit, since
scroll events come in unthrottled and we now no longer do a repick on
each one of those.

We might have a stage view listener attached to the stage itself if the
actor didn't have a suitable frame clock when the actor was associated
with the timeline. We'd then listen to stage-views-changed signals on
the stage itself to be able to attach to a frame clock when one
appeared.
What went wrong is that if an actor that didn't have a frameclock was
associated with a timeline, but then destroyed, the timeline would
disassociate itself from the actor, but it'd still listen on the
stage-views-changed signal on the stage. This would be in itself
harmless, until the timeline itself is destroyed, as at this point, it
wouldn't clean up the stage-views-changed listener on the stage, as it's
assumed to only be valid when there is an actor attached.
Fix this issue by cleaning up the stage's stage-views-changed listener
when the actor is destroyed, as we wouldn't be able to make use of it by
then anyway.

Before this commit, next presentation time could end up behind now_us or
ahead of now_us depending on how presentation times happened to be
aligned relative to integer multiples of refresh_interval_us. It's not
clear whether this was originally intended because even if it the next
presentation time ends up behind now_us, it is moved ahead by a while
loop down below in this function.
Even though this difference in behavior didn't really matter, it made
reasoning about the subsequent branches more complex. It would also
potentially introduce bugs if the logic was to be modified. So this
commit makes it so next presentation time is always ahead of now_us.
It also adds a comment with a graph detailing the computations, and
adjusts the variable names to drop unfortunate terminology mistakes.

Last presentation time is mainly used to make sure predicted
presentation time is aligned with display refreshes. Even if it went
back in time, there will be no issue as next presentation time takes
current time into account. Synthetic presentation time is not exactly
aligned with display refreshes, so using it would only result in

Previously we were setting the FBO's viewport to be the same dimensions as
the stage itself for compatibility. This works for most cases, but not if
the actor is larger than the stage. In that case it could cause excessive
clipping if the actor's transformed screen position was negative, which
is seen in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2087
Also if a small actor paints to its negative dimensions (like a box-shadow)
then we might be missing those pixels on the left or top, even though
they're inside the paint volume.
Now we set the viewport dimensions to match the area we're actually
rendering so the FBO contents are never over or under clipped.

If we are about to replace `redraw_clip` with a clamped version of itself
then we may as well do the same for `queued_redraw_clip`, so you can see
more precisely what the damage of the current frame is.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1554>
Initially we generate the new part of fb_clip_region from the new part
of redraw_clip, scale it up and clamp. But the clamping means the new
part of fb_clip_region might now represent a slightly larger area than
the new part of redraw_clip, by one pixel.
In some rare cases where a foreground actor honours redraw_clip, but
the background actor does not (meaning it might fill all fb_clip_region),
you could find 1px rendering glitches in that gap as the background
actor paints there but the foreground actor does not.
To ensure such glitches can never happen we now regenerate the final
redraw_clip as a clamped superset of the final fb_clip_region. That's
the minimum area we must paint to ensure no gaps appear inside
fb_clip_region.
Although the fix here sounds like the intent of the old code, the old
code forgot to include the new part of fb_clip_region in the clamping
of the final redraw_clip. So the new part of redraw_clip was sometimes
kept too small for the new part of fb_clip_region.
We also move the code to the main path because technically it's also
needed when `has_buffer_age == FALSE`.

Don't mode set each CRTC in separate KMS updates, as reconfiguring one
CRTC might cause other CRTCs to be implicitly reset thus as well,
causing KMS return EBUSY if using atomic modesetting.
Prepare for this by compositing each CRTC first including adding steps
to the KMS update, but wait until all views has rendered at least once
before posting the initial update. After this each CRTC is posted
separately.
Using EGLStreams instead of normal page flipping seems to fail when
doing this though, so handle that the old way for the EGLStream case,
i.e. eglSwapBuffers() -> mode set with dumb buffer -> eglStream
"acquire" (resulting in page flip under the hood).
For this we also introduce a new error code so that we don't use client
buffers when doing mode sets, which could accidentally configure the
CRTC in a way that is incompatible with the primary plane buffers.
Do the same also when we're in power save mode, to only have one special

ClutterFrame aims to carry information valid during dispatching a frame.

Some effects such as the BrightnessContrastEffect try to skip rendering
by returning early with a FALSE return value in pre_paint() in cases
where the effect would not change the rendering. This stopped working
when effects were ported to paint nodes.
In the case of OffscreenEffects, like BrightnessContrastEffect,
pre_paint() is responsible for setting up the offscreen buffer which is
then used in paint_node(). However if pre_paint() fails, this buffer is
not created and attempting to use it will result in several error
messages and broken rendering.
Instead of trying to call paint_node() of the effect if pre_paint()

When using alt-tab to switch between windows, on a key handler we
undo the compositor grab, which triggers a repick, which generates
crossing events, which are handled in place, and trigger these
reentrancy checks.
On one hand, we do intend these crossings to take effect in place,
rather than being queued (possibly after a number of already queued
events). On the other hand, we now outright discourage generating
events from random places (and hope to make it just not possible,

Turns out GObject implicitly notifies all properties by default as soon
as a property setter is called, no matter if the property actually
changed or not. One can opt-out of this behavior by setting the
G_PARAM_EXPLICIT_NOTIFY flag.
So since almost all our properties get notified explicitely (well,
except ClutterActors deprecated show-on-set-parent property), set this
flag for all properties of ClutterActor and ClutterStage now. This
significantly reduces the number of notify:: signals emitted on
ClutterActors, because in gnome-shell javascript we usually set GObject
properties directly, not by going through the extra setter method.
More cleanups can be done in the future, since this flag is suitable for
almost every property in Clutter and even Mutter.
This fixes a crash where we'd hit a newly introduced assertion in
on_device_actor_reactive_changed() of ClutterStage because
notify::reactive got emitted multiple times.

Due to a few reasons currently the updating of input devices after stage
relayouts isn't working right now. Since we now have a list of pointer
devices in ClutterStage, we can simply use that list and can avoid
asking the input thread. Also we no longer need to check whether the
devices are pointer devices, since our list only consists of pointer
devices.
So switch to ClutterStages private list of pointer devices, which also
includes the core pointer (as opposed to the list returned by
clutter_seat_peek_devices()). This fixes picking after relayouts.
Note that this doesn't catch every possible change that might need a
repick, actors might also need a repick after transformation changes or
in case their custom clip has been changed.

We're moving keeping track of input devices and their associated actors
out of ClutterInputDevice, this commit basically adds replacements for
clutter_input_device_update() and clutter_input_device_set_actor() to
clutter-main and shuffles the internals of those functions around a bit
for clarity.
clutter_stage_update_device() is made available in clutter-mutter.h
because we need to update the actor of input devices not only from
ClutterStage (when repicking after relayout), but also from
MetaWaylandPointer (inside meta_wayland_pointer_repick()).

With the introduction of the input thread, we want to avoid modifying
ClutterInputDevices from the main thread, since they're owned and
updated by the thread.
There's one part of ClutterInputDevice that's still modified from the
main thread though, that is device-actors of pointer devices, and we're
going to move that state-tracking into ClutterStage instead.
So start that by adding the infrastructure to ClutterStage to keep track
of those things. It consists of two hashtables which associate devices
and touch sequences with actors, those hashtables get updated using
clutter_stage_update_device_entry() and
clutter_stage_remove_device_entry(), they can be queried by calling
clutter_stage_get_device_actor(), which will replace
clutter_input_device_get_actor().
clutter_stage_get_device_coords() is added and made available in
clutter-mutter.h because we need to get the coordinates when repicking
in meta_wayland_pointer_repick().

The n_steps variable corresponds to the number of *pairs* of
texture lookups that the blur shader does. For example, when
n_steps = 1, the for-loop reads 1 pixel before and 1 pixel
after the current one.
Our blur shader is heavily inspired in WebRender's blur shader,
the biggest difference being that we calculate the gaussian
samples in the fragment shader itself, and not in the vertex
shader. (This could be an improvement in performance for the
future though!)
WebRender's blur shader calculates n_steps differently than what
we currently do, though. It calculates n_step in such a way that
at least 2 steps are performed for evey non-zero sigma value.

New entries indirectly added to `pending_queue_redraw` during the loop
would make our iterator invalid and cause `g_hash_table_iter_next` to
fail without having visited all elements. That was seen as assertion
failures but also likely resulted in incomplete paint clips.
Now we steal the iterator's entry before such corruption can happen,
free it manually, and reset the iterator to the beginning on every
iteration. This is actually safe and efficient because we're removing each
entry we visit. So no time is wasted in resuming from the (new) beginning
of the hash table.

The op array is built to match cogl_framebuffer_draw_textured_rectangles()

The most annoying aspect of ClutterOffscreenEffect right now, and

to paint.

ClutterOffscreenEffect. Next commits will port effects to use this
new vfunc.

ClutterLayerNode currently skips pushing the offscreen framebuffer when
no operations are set. This was added at the time because pushing and

Until now we would `clutter_input_focus_set_cursor_location` with
cursor-rectangle-in-physical-pixels + actor-location-in-stage-coordinates.
But those use different scaling factors so it only got the right answer
when the framebuffer scale was 1.0.
This directly determines the geometry of the invisible dummy cursor in
gnome-shell ibusCandidatePopup.js:
```
panelService.connect('set-cursor-location', (ps, x, y, w, h) => {
this._setDummyCursorGeometry(x, y, w, h);
});
```
And because it's invisible it wasn't obvious that it was wrong until you
enable `CLUTTER_PAINT=damage-region` and you can see its ghost at the wrong
offset and scale.
So now we `clutter_input_focus_set_cursor_location` using purely unscaled
stage coordinates. And `CLUTTER_PAINT=damage-region` shows that
gnome-shell's `_dummyCursor` is placed precisely over the visible cursor.

`priv->cursor_rect` is stored in physical pixels, not local coordinates.
So unscale it before returning from `clutter_text_get_cursor_rect`, which
is explicitly documented as returning "actor-relative coordinates".
This went missed with fractional scaling support, and unnoticed as nobody
uses `clutter_text_get_cursor_rect` yet. But that will soon change.

Before now it was assumed that the only negative local coordinates would
be those introduced by `_clutter_actor_box_enlarge_for_effects`, and we
used the difference for `fbo_offset_x/y`. But that was misguided (of me)
because gnome-shell can give us paint volumes at negative coordinates too,
like when rendering `box-shadow` on the top or left edge of an actor.
The maximum extents of negative coordinates we might need to render are
in fact the (enlarged) left and top edges of the paint volume. So use
those as the FBO offset. This places the actor's local origin correctly
within the FBO and thus also ensures it's not over-clipped at the edges
of the FBO, which now line up with the enlarged extents of the paint
volume.
This fixes one third of

Apparently it can happen that a timeline tries to pick a frame clock
from an actor that's on a stage, but the actor still doesn't find a
frame clock and returns NULL.
This probably is the case when starting a timeline right after attaching
an actor to a newly created stage, so before the first stage-update
cycle. In this case clutter_actor_update_stage_views() will not have run
and the stage-actor will have priv->stage_views set to NULL even though
there are stage views.
To prevent this from happening, use the complete list of stage views
maintained by the backend when picking a frame clock for the stage.
This doesn't fix any issue appearing on master, but is correct
nonetheless.

Instead of using native backend platform data specifically, store
this info in ClutterMotionEvent. This includes time in usec since
it's just used for motion events, in the future it could make sense
to make these general to all events again, but it could make sense
to make ClutterEvent structs private before.

It is not possible to express a blit operation using paint
nodes as of now. This is a requirement for GNOME Shell, e.g.,
to implement its blur effect.
Add a new ClutterBlitNode node that takes two framebuffers as
input, and blits the source framebuffer into the current one
according to added rectangles.
Because this paint node uses the rectangles in a different way
compared to all the other nodes, add an auxiliary method to
ensure all blit operations are valid.

ClutterLayerNode is the "offscreen framebuffer" node, that paints it's
child nodes in a separate framebuffer, and then copies that framebuffer
to the parent one.
It'll be useful to hand ClutterLayerNode which framebuffer and pipeline
to use, as this is a requirement for porting e.g. ClutterOffscreenEffect
and subclasses.

Some effects, such as ShellBlurEffect and ClutterOffscreenEffect, need
to make sure the actor is painted fully opaque. With ClutterActorNode,
however, that is currently not possible.
Add a new 'opacity' parameter to clutter_actor_node_new(). It follows
the opacity override heuristic, where -1 means disable, and anything
else is clamped to [0, 255].

Introduce a new paint_node vfunc that, if implemented, allows
the effect to add nodes to a transient paint node that is
immediately painted. This is a transitional step until we
have fully delegated paint node rendering.
The most basic implementation of a ClutterEffect.paint_node
vfunc, and also the default implementation, is with an actor
node, as follows:
```
static void
foo_bar_paint_node (ClutterEffect *effect,
ClutterPaintNode *node,
ClutterPaintContext *paint_context,
ClutterEffectPaintFlags flags)
{
g_autoptr (ClutterPaintNode) actor_node = NULL;
actor_node = clutter_actor_node_new (effect->actor);
clutter_paint_node_add_child (node, actor_node);
}
```
This example gives the exact same behavior of simply calling
clutter_actor_continue_paint(). In the future, the paint node
itself will be a parameter of clutter_actor_continue_paint()
and we'll be able to simplify it event more.

ClutterEffectNode is a private ClutterPaintNode implementation
that does effectively nothing, but helps organizing the paint
node tree. It also helps debugging, since it can output the
effect class and name to the JSON debugging routines.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1340>
The idea of having a paint node tree is that we don't really need
to retrieve the framebuffer from ClutterPaintContext. For example,
ClutterLayerNode draws into an offscreen framebuffer; if any child
of a layer node needs to retrieve a framebuffer to draw, the layer
node's offscreen framebuffer should be used.
However, clutter_paint_node_get_framebuffer() goes straight to the
root node of the tree, skipping any potential paint nodes with a
custom framebuffer.
Modify clutter_paint_node_get_framebuffer() to walk up the paint
node tree until a node with a custom framebuffer appears. In many
cases, this will end up either in dummy or layer node's custom
framebuffer implementations.

Instead of going through the event queue, stage handling code, and
back to the input device via a vmethod call, do this directly in the

All that is left in the "public" struct is all state that ClutterStage
delegates on ClutterInputDevice. That should move somewhere else, but
not here, not now.
All private fields belong to construct-only properties, with only getter
API, and idempotent vmethods (except keyboard a11y, atm). This should
be enough to make ClutterInputDevice obviously thread safe, outside the

Depending on the backend, we want to integrate this object at different
levels. It will sit close to the MetaBackendX11/MetaSeatX11 in X11, but
it will be put deep down with MetaSeatImpl in the native backend, in a

Since we can't depend on a single object type, nor are able to track
ClutterSeat signals neatly, make this API something to be called
explicitly by backends.

Users of Debian arm64 (aarch64) report that on at least some GPUs
or screens, after time-based screen blanking has occurred, it is not
possible to unlock the screen. Bisection indicates that this regressed

It's currently possible that some last_paint_volumes don't get updated
during a paint cycle, this can happen when a ClutterOffscreenEffect is
used: The offscreen effect might skip painting the content and the
children of an actor because it uses its own offscreened texture
instead. This means the offscreen effect doesn't call
clutter_actor_continue_paint(), and thus the the last_paint_volumes of
the children won't be updated.
Now one might think that isn't a problem, because as soon as a child
changes it's size or position, the offscreened texture would get
invalidated and clutter_actor_continue_paint() would get called. It's
not that easy though: Because the last_paint_volume includes all the
transformation matrices up to eye-coordinates, it has to be updated on
any changes to matrices, which includes position/transformation changes
to any actor up the hierarchy.
Now that's where get into problems with the offscreen effect: In case of
transformation changes to the offscreened actor or an actor up the
hierarchy, the offscreened texture won't get invalidated (that makes
sense, we can simply paint it transformed) and the last_paint_volumes
won't get updated even though they should.
This leaves us around with outdated last_paint_volumes where
last_paint_volume_valid is still set to TRUE. It can cause issues with
culling and clipped redraws.
So fix that by ensuring that all children that would get painted by
Clutter get their last_paint_volumes updated in case a ClutterEffect
decided not to call clutter_actor_continue_paint().
This ignores the case where a paint() vfunc override does the same and
doesn't call clutter_actor_paint() on children. Let's ignore this case
for now, there shouldn't be any implementation which does that and
ideally in a world that's painted solely by ClutterContent, we can get
rid of that vfunc in the future.

The first comment isn't really needed anymore since
the is_full_stage_redraw_queued() underneath is quite self-explaining.
Also rephrase the second comment a bit, including that
_clutter_paint_volume_get_stage_paint_box() does the aligning to the
pixel grid.
Finally, the last comment also looks out of date since we do that
rounding inside _clutter_paint_volume_get_stage_paint_box(), so remove
it.

We currently pass actors a reference to their associated
ClutterStageQueueRedrawEntry when queueing a redraw. This "splitting" of
the ownership of the entry has introduced quite a few bugs in the past
and is hard to follow.
So give up the "splitting" of the ownership and exclusively handle those
entries inside ClutterStage. To still allow removing the entry when an
actor gets unrealized introduce clutter_stage_dequeue_actor_redraw()
similar to what we already have for relayouts.
To be able to efficiently find entries when actors queue redraws, make
pending_queue_redraws a GHashTable, which fits quite nicely and also
allows removing the QueueRedrawEntries actor pointer in favour of the
key of the hashtable.
Since the struct is now private to ClutterStage, we can also rename it
to QueueRedrawEntry.
While at it, also sneak in the removal of the leading underscore from
clutter_stage_queue_actor_redraw().
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1511>
The "queue-redraw" signal is not used anywhere in Clutter and we now
also removed the vfunc implementation of the stage. So stop emitting it
and remove it, but keep the propagate_queue_redraw infrastructure to
make sure clones still get their redraws queued.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1511>
Since we now decoupled the "queue-redraw" signal from creating the stage
clip, we can move signal emission into
_clutter_actor_queue_redraw_full() and emit the signal right away when
queueing a redraw on an actor. With that we now no longer have to
accommodate for the stage pending_queue_redraws list changing while
iterating over it.
To ensure we don't emit the signal too often when multiple redraws are
queued on one actor, use the propagated_one_redraw flag to limit the
number of emissions to a single one for every update cycle.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1511>
Putting together the redraw clip of the stage never really fitted nicely
with the "queue-redraw" signal emission, it forces us to emit the
signals in a batch and we also use a weird trick to get the old paint
volume that's already on-screen into the final redraw clip (we call
_clutter_actor_propagate_queue_redraw() on the stage).
So start breaking up this association by making the stage explicitely
request the redraw clip from the actor and removing the
ClutterPaintVolume argument from _clutter_actor_finish_queue_redraw().
This is done by adding a private function
clutter_actor_get_redraw_clip() which returns our old (currently
visible) paint volume and the new paint volume.
This also allows removing the check whether a full stage redraw has been
queued in clutter_actor_real_queue_redraw() and we can now just stop the
signal emission if a propagation happened at least once.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1511>
The most common case for Clutter is 2D axis-aligned actors, which
maintain these properties even after projecting to eye coordinates.
In those cases, we can use a simpler hit test by checking against
boxes.
Not only this is simpler, but this maintains an important aspect
of picking that is a requirement for Clutter: watertightness. Even
though the triangles checks do work on x86_64, they do not guarantee
watertightness. This breaks tests on ARM.
Use graphene_box_t to hit-test axis-aligned 2D actors.

clutter_actor_paint() implements a clear preference for custom clips
over clip_to_allocation: If a custom clip is set, clip_to_allocation is
ignored.
Since the paint volume reflects what Clutter is going to paint, we
should handle it the same when putting together our paint volume: So
first handle custom clips, and if one is set, use that. Then handle
clip_to_allocation, and if that's set, use that. And finally, if both
aren't set, union our allocation with the children paint volumes to get
the building volume.
clutter_actor_paint() also doesn't check whether the custom clip is
empty: If that's the case, it will simply not paint anything. Given that
that's allowed by clutter_actor_paint(), the paint volume should also
follow here and return an empty paint volume in case the custom clip is
empty.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1592>
When a custom clip is set for an actor, this actor is not going to allow
any painting outside that clip. That includes the children, which may
also not paint outside that clip.
Now in case clip_to_allocation is set to TRUE, we already already do the
right thing and simply use the allocation as our paint volume, ignoring
the volumes of our children. The same should be done for the custom
clip, so also stop the process of building the paint volume once we see
that a custom clip is set and simply use that clip.

When using CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION, the blue swap region is
always a superset of the red redraw region. So painting both in full (since
the previous commit) just meant the red region was overdrawn and came out
purple. That doesn't provide enough visual contrast, changes the user
experience unexpectedly and reduces performance.
So just subtract the redraw region from the swap region. This way the
red redraw region is always red, not purple.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1571>
Previously when CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION was set, that would lead
to has_buffer_age==FALSE, which would lead to use_clipped_redraw==FALSE
which would mean swap_region was always empty. And so the blue region of
CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION was always empty, *and* fb_clip_region
was always the full view rectangle which is not useful for debugging.
Now when CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION is set, we don't let that
affect use_clipped_redraw, which means fb_clip_region is calculated
realistically.
But that's not enough. Calculating fb_clip_region properly with
CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION would still lead to colouring artefacts
left on screen from previous frames that don't apply to the current frame.
So to fix that we also paint_stage for the whole screen every time when
using CLUTTER_DEBUG_PAINT_DAMAGE_REGION.
So now you will only ever see red and blue shading that's applicable to
the current frame, and no artefacts from the previous frames.

As explained in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1494,
with commit 29caa5bea5 we stopped queueing
a relayout for the parent of the removed actor in
clutter_actor_remove_child_internal(). This relayout was, as opposed to
the relayout in clutter_actor_real_hide()/clutter_actor_real_unmap(),
queued unconditionally without looking at the parents NO_LAYOUT flag.
Now while that relayout in clutter_actor_remove_child_internal() would
do unnecessary work if the parent had the NO_LAYOUT flag set, it did
also queue a redraw of the parent, which is necessary in any case.
So by removing that relayout in clutter_actor_remove_child_internal(),
we stopped queueing redraws for NO_LAYOUT parents when a child gets
removed from the scenegraph. This caused bugs where the texture of the
child would be left visible on the screen even though the child got
destroyed.
To fix this, make sure again that we always queue a redraw on the parent
when unmapping a child.

The redraw_pending boolean is used to schedule the first stage update
after starting Clutter. This flag is superfluous because we have the
pending_finish_queue_redraws flag which does the same.

for example Sysprof marks.

ClutterRedrawFlags are a way to give Clutter additional context
about what it needs to redraw. There currently is only one flag defined,
CLUTTER_REDRAW_CLIPPED_TO_ALLOCATION, this flag would clip the redraw to
the actors current allocation.
Since ClutterActor also provides the clip_to_allocation property (which
affects the paint volume of the actor instead of only one redraw), the
additional CLIPPED_TO_ALLOCATION flag seems unnecessary. It's also only
defined to be used privately in Clutter, which it never is, so let's
remove it.

This commit introduces a few important changes in order to
acommodate graphene_ray_t. Most of them are positive changes,
so don't panic :)
The first very visible change is that neither the actor box
nor the clip rectangles are projected before being pushed.
This required changing the parameters of the related functions
at both ClutterPickContext, and ClutterPickStack, to receive
boxes instead of vertices. These rectangles are projected on
demand now, so in the best case (first actor picked) only
one projection happens; and in the worst case, it projects
as much as it does now.
The second important change is that there are no more checks
for axis-alignment anymore. That's because picking now happens
in 3D space, using triangles.
Talking about triangles in 3D space, this is what is used now
for picking. We break down each actor rectangle in 2 triangles,
and check if the projected pick point is inside any one of them,
of if the ray intersects any one of them. The same check happens
for the clip rectangles.
Checking the projected pick point is both an optimization for the
2D case, and a workaround to graphene_ray_t problems with float
precision, which is specially visible on edges such as the top
bar.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1509
ClutterPickStack is a new boxed type that stores the vertices
and clip rectangles. It is meant to be a byproduct of picking,
and takes over most of what ClutterStage currently does.
It introduces a 'seal' system, inspired by MetaKmsUpdate. After
the pick operation is done, and the rectangles are collected,
the pick stack is sealed, and is not allowed to be externally
modified anymore. Internally, it still can invalidate pick
records when an actor is destroyed.
For now, it handles both the clip rectangles, and the matrix
stack, separatedly. Future commits will rearrange this.

The "paint" signal of ClutterActor has been a pain for everyone involved
