The backend can now optionally wait for the scene to be created before
it updates its outputs, which is necessary for better atomic tests in
the DRM backend.
Currently, the implementation of the DecoratedClient and the decoration
renderer are strongly coupled. This poses a problem with the item based
design as the ultimate goal is to have scene items construct paint nodes
which are then fed to the renderer. The DecorationItem has to have
control over the decoration texture. Another issue is that the scene
cannot smoothly cross-fade between two window states if the decoration
is removed, e.g. from fullscreen mode to normal and vice versa.
This change moves the decoration renderer to the decoration item. With
the introduction of a generic scene texture atlas, we hope to get rid of
the decoration renderer altogether.
Platform::prepareShutdown() was introduced to work around the issue
where the platform accesses destroyed OutputDeviceInterface objects.
Since we no longer query OutputDeviceInterface for output info, the
Platform::prepareShutdown() function can be dropped.
At the moment, the session code is far from being extensible. If we
decide to add support for libseatd, it will be a challenging task with
the current design of session management code. The goal of this
refactoring is to fix that.
Another motivation behind this change is to prepare session related code
for upstreaming to kwayland-server where it belongs.
Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
