IN_FORMATS contains information about which buffer formats can be
scanned out with a given drm plane. Using these plane-specific
format+modifier combinations as well as explicit modifiers in
general can yield bandwidth and performance improvements,
especially in multi-gpu systems.
We use surfaceless contexts with internal windows. We also require
the EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context extension for making context current
without outputs.
Arguably, we could use pbuffers, but since mainstream drivers (Mesa and
NVIDIA) support surfaceless contexts, the extra complexity doesn't buy
us anything.
In a recent refactor screens are only created when our xdg_surface has
been acked. This leaves a window where m_waylandCursor is null and
events are still being processed.
This further decouples scene items from scene windows. The SurfaceItem
still needs to access the underlying window, I would like to re-iterate
over that later.
With this change, it will be possible to introduce WindowItem factory
function in the Toplevel class.
toplevel.h is included in many places. Changing virtualdesktops.h may
trigger rebuild of all kwin.
With this change, only cpp files that use virtualdesktops.h will need to
be recompiled.
SceneOpenGLShadow::prepareBackend used to use QImage::Format_Indexed8,
plus a special code path in GLTexture, to create single-channel OpenGL textures.
Now that Qt supports QImage::Format_Alpha8, this workaround can be removed.
Currently, a vertex coordinate is transformed first, then mapped to
the global screen coordinates. This causes a problem if a transform
is applied to the top-most item and child items are not at (0, 0).
For example, scaled windows may have popping out sub-surfaces, etc.
With this change, the item transforms will be computed differently. For
example, if the parent item is transformed, a child's transform will
look as follows
[Parent's translation][Parent's transform][Child's translation]
instead of
[Parent's translation][Child's translation][Parent's transform]
In the future, I'd like to get rid of the Item::setTransform() call in
OpenGLWindow::performPaint() and have either AnimationEffect or
libkwineffects call Item::setTransform().
BUG: 440201
As per the xdg-shell specification, the compositor can only attach
a wl_buffer to an xdg_surface once the compositor has sent an
xdg_surface.configure event. Previously, there was a race condition
in which WaylandOutput objects were added/enabled on creation, making
it possible for the EglWaylandOutputs to be set up and for
EglWaylandBackend to draw a frame (thereby attaching a buffer), all
before the xdg_surface.configure configure event was received.
Compositors other than kwin would then send an unconfigured buffer
error and close the connection.
This commit avoids the problem by not marking the WaylandBackend
ready for use until all the output surfaces constructed at startup
have received their initial configure event. (In practice, this
takes one additional roundtrip.)
Blending is quite expensive especially with software rendering.
In the case of Firefox on Wayland, it uses a ARGB8888 buffer but marks the
entire surface as opaque, so the alpha channel can be ignored.

When the last output gets disconnected, create a virtual output as a
placeholder until we have access to a physical output again. While
this placecholder never gets rendered to, with virtual outputs in
general that is possible (with gbm and qpainter atm) and can be done
for future use cases like wireless displays.

This reverts commit 44ad9437c4 because it
breaks build:
platforms/x11/common/eglonxbackend.cpp:224:66: error: cannot initialize a parameter of type 'EGLNativeWindowType' (aka 'unsigned long') with an rvalue of type 'xcb_window_t *' (aka 'unsigned int *')
surface = eglCreateWindowSurface(eglDisplay(), config(), &window, nullptr);

Makes it possible to apply the dpms settings per screen instead of
applying it to all of them, which is wrong at many levels.
Will be even more important with other effects like rotation.
Currently, the entire screen will be repainted when using the qpainter
render backend. With this change, kwin will repaint only the dirty parts
on the screen.
A better alternative is to return the damage region in the beginFrame()
function. This way, the render backend can force full screen repaints or
indicate what parts of the buffer needs to be repainted (for buffer age)
The main motivation behind the split is to simplify client buffer code
and allow adding new features easier, for example referencing the shm
pool when a shm buffer is destroyed, or monitoring for readable linux
dmabuf file descriptors, etc.
Also, a referenced ClientBuffer cannot be destroyed, unlike the old
BufferInterface.
If window quads need to be generated after the wl_surface is destroyed,
the SurfaceItemWayland::mapToBuffer() function will return wrong values.
In order to fix that, we need to store the last surface-to-buffer matrix
in SurfaceItem.
DrmPipeline is now what contains all the thing related to drm calls,
instead of DrmOutput. This allows for some more flexibility and tidies
the code up a bit. Additionally instead of rolling back changes if
presentation fails, changes are directly tested with atomic test only
commits.
While always calling showCursor isn't a problem for when there's no
pointing device as the cursor image is empty in that case, it can
cause a temporarily stuck cursor image when it's supposed to be
hidden because of touch input
If a wl_eglstream buffer is attached to a surface, but then later a different
type of buffer, such as a dmabuf, is attached to the same surface, kwin will
mistakenly keep trying to acquire frames from the EGLStream associated with the
previous buffer. This can happen if an Xwayland window is made full-screen
causing it to switch to the flipping presentation path, for instance. The
result is that the window contents will no longer be updated.
Instead, the eglstream backend's loadTexture and updateTexture functions should
first pass the buffer to eglCreateStreamAttribNV. If it fails with
EGL_BAD_STREAM_KHR, that indicates it is indeed a wl_eglstream, and that we've
already associated a server-side EGLStream with it in attachStreamConsumer, so
we can proceed as usual. If it fails with EGL_BAD_ACCESS, though, that
indicates it is not a wl_eglstream and we should fall back to the parent class
which handles attaching other buffer types. If it doesn't fail at all, that
means the client tried to attach a new wl_eglstream to a surface without first
attaching the stream consumer. There's not really a great way to handle this,
so just re-use the previous EGLStream.
This is to ensure that both kwin and Qt use the same EGLDisplay. Note
that the native context handle can have no display, however it's very
unlikely to happen.
There are EGL implementations that will refuse to create a context if
the share context belongs to other EGLDisplay. Currently, that's the
case on some platforms.
If eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT() is called with the same parameters, it'll
return the same EGLDisplay. The main motivation behind this change is to
ensure that both kwin and Qt share the same EGLDisplay, QtXCB calls
eglGetPlatformDisplayEXT() without any additional args.
If EGL_PLATFORM_X11_SCREEN_EXT is not specified via attrs, the EGL
implementation will use the default screen, which is the same as
m_x11ScreenNumber.
Putting the OpenGL post processing rotation into its own class cleans
the EglGbmBackend code up a bit and adds post processing rotation for
the EglStreamBackend
Currently, if discard() is called, kwin will crash because
EglPixmapTexture does not override the discard method.
In principle, neither GlxPixmapTexture nor EglPixmapTexture should mess
around with internals of the GLTexture class. It is better to have a
wrapper texture with a bind method, which will re-bind the pixmap to the
opengl texture if necessary.
It seems like without a surface creation of the scene fails somehow. At
least until the exact problem is solved, update outputs for EglStream
gpus before creating the EglStreamBackend.
