Currently, every time compositing is restarted, both the gbm and the egl
streams backend will re-obtain the EGLDisplay object.
This is wrong because the core assumption is that the EGL display doesn't
change once it has been obtained.
On some devices, the GPU nodes are also added as /dev/dri/cardX, they
are not useful for KMS purposes and does not have display resources.
If we encounter such cards, then skip them.
This makes our QPlatformOpenGLContext private subclass simpler.
As a slightly unrelated change, this patch also fixes a bug where our
platform opengl context may return a wrong surface format if surfaceless
contexts are unsupported.
Every time Platform::supportsQpaContext() is called, we go through the
list of supported extensions and perform a string comparison op. This is
not really cheap.
This change replaces the remaining usages of the old connect syntax with
the new connect syntax.
Unfortunately, there are still places where we have to use SIGNAL() and
SLOT() macros, for example the stuff that deals with d-bus business.
Clazy was used to create this change. There were a few cases that needed
manual intervention, the majority of those cases were about resolving
ambiguity caused by overloaded signals.
Uses a setter and clear method pattern rather than having the code
repeated.
Instead of keeping a QPointer, now we are a QObject and we get notified
about destruction intention directly, so we can clear the pointer when
necessary.
Previously qtvirtualkeyboard was integrated weirdly so that it was
acting as the focus object and proxy for input methods, however now that
we support proper input methods, this code is totally unused in the QPA
and actually prevents the QT_IM_MODULE from working now that
qtvirtualkeyboard is dropped.
See: f26f2fe181 for the reference of the
code deleted.
A timer could have fired at any time. We process mulitple QtQuickViews
on timers which change the GL context.
Deleting a kwin GLTexture calls glDeleteTextures/glDeleteFramebuffers.
Surprisingly I haven't seen a crash report from this, but it doesn't
look right.
Summary:
Notify the driver about the parts of the screen that will be repainted.
In some cases this can be benefitial. This is especially useful on lima
and panfrost devices (e.g. pinephone, pinebook, pinebook pro).
Test Plan:
Tested on a pinebook pro with a late mesa version.
Basically I implemented it, then it didn't work and I fixed it.
Maybe next step we want to look into our damage algorithm.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.
