Currently, it's possible to have the case where the pointer input device
handler or the touch input device handler thinks that there's a focused
window, but the corresponding focused surface in wayland seat is unset,
because the pointer hovers the server side decoration.
If the server side decoration is destroyed, the input device handler will
fail to update wayland seat's focused surface.
In order to make pointer input device handler and touch input device
handler code more intuitive, this change makes focusUpdate() functions
ignore the decoration.

This simplifies focus related logic a bit. Instead of differentiating
between wayland and internal window focus, simply maintain window focus
that works both with regular wayland windows as well as the ones created
by kwin.
KWin handles several types of pointing input devices, e.g. mice,
tablets, etc.
As is, enterEvent and leaveEvent are very ambiguous. This change
prepends "pointer" to those methods to make it explicit that they handle
pointer enter/leave events.
The main motivation behind this change is to prepare input abstractions
for virtual input devices so the wl_seat can properly advertise caps or
the cursor getting properly mapped/unmapped when a fake pointer is
added/removed on a system without a hardware mouse connected.
With this, there are three abstractions - InputDevice, InputBackend, and
InputRedirection.
An InputDevice represents an input device such as a mouse, a keyboard, a
tablet, etc. The InputBackend class notifies the InputRedirection about
(dis-)connected devices. The InputRedirection manages the input devices.
Such design allows to unify the event flow for real and virtual input
devices.
There can be several input backends active. For example, the libinput
backend and an input backend that provides virtual input devices, e.g.
libeis or org_kde_kwin_fake_input.
InputDeviceHandler keeps track of which client has focus, and whether
the decoration or main window has focus.
Should the decoration get destroyed whilst the decoration has focus we
don't update correctly. This can happen when
"BorderlessMaximizedWindows" is set, or if you use key presses whilst
above the decoration.
cleanupDecoration (which is an odd name) is called whenever a decoration
gains or loses focus. Here we can connect for the decoration destruction
and force a focus change.
BUG: 411884
API-wise it's odd to require absolute position with relative pointer
moves.
This cleans up some of InputRedirection code by making it simply forward
pointer input events from input devices to the pointer input device
handler, which knows better what to do with the delta value.
The pointer input device handler will compute the absolute position based
on the specified delta value, but it could also do something else, e.g.
not move the pointer at all if it's locked, etc.
Currently, the pointer is moved to the center of the workspace. However,
on a multi-monitor setup, the workspace center may not be the same as
the center of the output it's on. That's the case with my setup -
1920x1080, 1920x1080, 1080x1920 (the monitors are laid out in a row from
left to right).
This change improves the default placement of the pointer by actually
moving it to the center of the screen that contains the workspace center
so the pointer doesn't end up at some "random" position from the user's
point of view.
With AbstractOutput being used more heavily, it makes sense to have
something like Screens::number() in the Platform class. As is, the steps
to get an output for a given point are awkward - first, get the screen
id, then use the screen id to get the output.
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.
The Toplevel::clientContentPos() function is needed to map the surface
local coordinates to the global coordinates. But its name is highly
confusing as there's already a function with a similar name. This change
introduces a helper with a better name to fix the readability issue.
This is to improve code readability and make it easier to differentiate
between methods that are used during interactive move-resize and normal
move-resize methods in the future.
We want to update the input focus only if the pointer is moved. Due to
that, AbstractClient::enterEvent() checks the last seen pointer position
to decide whether the window needs to be focused.
The issue is that when the pointer moves from a decoration to a surface,
the cached pointer position will be updated to the current pointer
position, and thus the check in AbstractClient::enterEvent() will fail.
We need to update the cached pointer position only if there is a focused
decoration.
Xcursors don't support hidpi so if a hidpi cursor is needed, kwin will
scale the desired size by the scale factor and ask Xcursor helpers to
load a theme with the given name and the size.
However, the theme loading code doesn't take into account that Xcursor
theme loading helpers may not return cursor sprites of size size * scale
if the theme has no such a size.
For example, if the cursor theme only provides 24, 36, and 48 sizes and
kwin attempts to load cursors of size 48 with a scale factor of 2, we
will get cursors of size 48 instead of 96. Unfortunately, this will
result in the issue where the cursor shrinks when hovering decorations
because kwin doesn't know that the effective scale factor (1) is
different from the requested scale factor (2).
In order to fix loading of HiDPI cursors, we need to approximate the
effective scale factor of every cursor sprite as we load it.
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.
