Summary:
Currently code base of kwin can be viewed as two pieces. One is very
ancient, and the other one is more modern, which uses new C++ features.
The main problem with the ancient code is that it was written before
C++11 era. So, no override or final keywords, lambdas, etc.
Quite recently, KDE compiler settings were changed to show a warning if
a virtual method has missing override keyword. As you might have already
guessed, this fired back at us because of that ancient code. We had
about 500 new compiler warnings.
A "solution" was proposed to that problem - disable -Wno-suggest-override
and the other similar warning for clang. It's hard to call a solution
because those warnings are disabled not only for the old code, but also
for new. This is not what we want!
The main argument for not actually fixing the problem was that git
history will be screwed as well because of human factor. While good git
history is a very important thing, we should not go crazy about it and
block every change that somehow alters git history. git blame allows to
specify starting revision for a reason.
The other argument (human factor) can be easily solved by using tools
such as clang-tidy. clang-tidy is a clang-based linter for C++. It can
be used for various things, e.g. fixing coding style(e.g. add missing
braces to if statements, readability-braces-around-statements check),
or in our case add missing override keywords.
Test Plan: Compiles.

So far KWin didn't send axis_source, axis_discrete, and axis_stop. Even
though most of those events are optional, clients need them to work as
expected. For example, one needs axis_source and axis_stop to implement
kinetic scrolling; Xwayland needs axis_discrete to prevent multiple
scroll events when the compositor sends axis deltas greater than 10, etc.

Summary:
On Wayland we cannot switch from OpenGL to QPainter compositor as this
would break any running OpenGL application. KWin registers it's
EGLDisplay to Wayland and without OpenGL this doesn't make sense any
more. We are not able to render OpenGL buffers in the QPainter
compositor.
While it's theoretically possible to switch from QPainter to OpenGL it
doesn't make any sense for the same reason. Any running OpenGL
application would be using llvmpipe and could not be switched to proper
OpenGL.
This change stores the selected compositing type in Platform and the
implementations can use it to restrict the supported compositors. On X11
we don't need this, all other Platforms implement the restriction. Thus
it's no longer possible to switch the backends at runtime.
Test Plan:
Adjusted tests run, no runtime test as gui doesn't support
switching to QPainter anyway.

Summary:
In order to separate high-level properties of individual outputs from
hardware-specific ones and access these, introduce a new generic class Output.
Also make the DrmOutput class directly a child class of this generic class.
The long-term goal is to get rid of the Screens global object on Wayland and
instead directly work with Output objects on compositing level.
This should enable us long-term to do direct scanout to hardware planes, what
I predict needs this generic output representation at one point.

With Wayland KWin needs to provide certain services, which were provided
before that by the Xserver. One of these is gamma correction, which includes
the - by many people beloved - functionality to reduce the blue light at
nighttime. This patch provides the KWin part of that. It is self contained,
but in the end will work in tandem with a lib in Plasma Workspace and a KCM
in Plasma Desktop, which can be used to configure Night Color.
* Three modi:
** Automatic: The location and sun timings are determined automatically
(location data updates will be provided by the workspace)
** Location: The sun timings are determined by fixed location data
** Timings: The sun timings are set manually by the user
* Color temperature value changes are smoothly applied:
** Configuration changes, which lead to other current values are changed
in a quick way over a few seconds
** Changes on sunrise and sunset are applied slowly over the course of few
minutes till several hours depending on the configuration
* The current color value is set immediately at startup or after suspend
phases and VT switches. There is no flickering.
* All configuration is done via a DBus interface, changed values are tested
on correctness and applied atomically
* Self contained mechanism, speaks directly to the hardware by setting the
gamma ramps on the CRTC
* Currently working on DRM backend, extensible to other platform backends in
the future
* The code is written in a way to make the classes later easily extendable to
also provide normal color correction, as it's currently done by KGamma on X

Summary:
So far KWin does not know which Compositors the platform actually
supports. This results in KWin happily trying to use the OpenGL
compositor on fbdev or the QPainter compositor on hwcomposer although
that is obviously going to fail as the platform doesn't support this.
By adding a pure virtual method all Platforms can define what they
support. In a later step the Compositor can use this to create an
appropriate scene and also perform proper fallback handling in case the
scene creation fails.

So far the Platform performed a deep query into the AbstractEglBackend
to get information such as EGLContext, EGLConfig, EGLSurface. This
change adjusts this so that the AbstractEGLPlatform forwards it directly
whenever it gets informed about one following the approach already used
for EGLDisplay. This simplifies the code a lot and allows to remove the
dependency on the actual scene backend from the Platform (in order to
split out the SceneOpenGL into a plugin).

KWin::updateXTime only delegates into the platform API where the method
is a no-op. The actual implementation is moved into the X11 standalone
platform as it uses QX11Info which is non functional except on the X11
standalone platform.
This change exposes a problem with timestamp handling: on Wayland the
X11 timestamp does not get updated at all, causing e.g. window sync not
work correctly (c.f. bug 374881). We cannot implement the updating in the
same way as QX11Info/Qt xcb platform does it as that would introduce a
blocking roundtrip to XWayland which is dangerous.
As a side-effect this change removes linking to Qt5::X11Extras in kwin
core as it's no longer needed.

Summary:
A new virtual method is added to Platform:
startInteractiveWindowSelection
The interactive window selection enters a mode where the user can select
a window through the pointer or keyboard device. The cursor is turned
into a crosshair cursor, unless another cursor name is provided (e.g.
pirate for kill window).
Once a window is selected the provided callback method is invoked with
the selected Toplevel as argument. In case the user cancelled the
selection a nullptr argument is passed in.
Currently it's only implemented by the X11 standalone platform using the
logic from KillWindow. Just instead of killing the window the callback
is invoked.
KillWindow loses the X11 implementation and interacts with the new
functionality in Platform by providing a lambda function for the
killing.
Test Plan: Killing of X11 windows is still possible

Some platforms support to hide and show the cursor. This will be needed
by e.g. the zoom effect which currently only provides this functionality
on X11.
This change introduces a new method in the Platform to hide and show the
cursor. The methods need to be called balanced and the implementation
takes care of only showing again if all hide got matched by a show.
The actual hiding and showing is performed in the platform plugins. So
far the DRM and X11/Standalone platforms implement the required
functionality, though other platforms probably could implement as well.

Summary:
With nouveau driver it can happen that KWin gets frozen when first trying
to render with OpenGL. This results in a freeze of the complete desktop
as the compositor is non functional.
Our OpenGL breakage detection is only able to detect crashes, but not
freezes. This change improves it by also added a freeze protection.
In the PreInit stage a thread is started with a QTimer of 15 sec. If the
timer fires, qFatal is triggered to terminate KWin. This can only happen
if the creation of the OpenGL compositor takes longer than said 15 sec.
In the PostInit stage the timer gets deleted and the thread stopeed
again.
Thus if a freeze is detected the OpenGL unsafe protection is written into
the config. KWin aborts and gets restarted by DrKonqui. The new KWin
instance will no longer try to activate the freezing OpenGL as the
protection is set.
If KWin doesn't freeze the protection is removed from the config as
we are used to.
Check for freezes for the first n frames, not just the first
This patch changes the freeze detection code to detect freezes in the
first 30 frames (by default, users can change that with the
KWIN_MAX_FRAMES_TESTED environment variable). This detects
successfully the freezes associated to nouveau drivers

Summary:
There are several effects (screenshot, zoom) which need access to the
cursor image and cursor hotspot. So far these effects used X11
unconditionally to get the cursor which obviously does not work on
Wayland.
This change adds a new class PlatformCursorImage to kwinglobals which
wraps what a cursor is (image and hotspot) and adds a new virtual method
to Platform to provide such a PlatformCursorImage. By default it's the
cursor image the Platform tracks. On X11/standalone platform this new
virtual method is overriden and provides a PlatformCursorImage from X11
using the code previously used in screenshot effect.
Screenshot effect and zoom are adjusted to use the new API instead of
X11.
Test Plan:
Zoom effect tested on Wayland, now gets the proper cursor icon.

Summary:
So far SharingPlatformContext was only used if the OpenGL context
supports EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context. If not supported, KWin tried to
create a context through the Wayland API. Unfortunately on hwcomposer
platform this results in a crash as libhybris only supports the init
of EGLDisplay for one native platform.
This change tries to also use the SharingPlatformContext if there is
an OpenGL context in general. It reuses the native EGLSurface created
for the compositing scene and makes its own OpenGL context current on
that surface, too. As KWin creates an FBO, it never renders to it, so
it shouldn't matter at all.
In order to prevent EGL_BAD_MATCH errors when making Qt's OpenGL context
current also the EGLConfig from the scene is used to create the context.

Summary:
KWin needs to support restarting the OpenGL compositor in case of a
graphics reset event.
On Wayland the tricky part is that the applications should not notice
this. Most importantly KWin cannot just destroy the EGLDisplay and create
a new one. But this is how a restart works: the complete compositor gets
torn down and recreated - including the EGLDisplay.
This change moves ownership of the EGLDisplay to the Platform.
The AbstractEglBackend subclasses query the Platform whether there is
already an EGLDisplay. Only if there is no EGLDisplay the EGLDisplay is
created and only if no EGLDisplay is registered with Wayland the bind
is performed.
Another change is regarding the destruction: the AbstractEglDisplay does
no longer unbind the Wayland display and does no longer destroy the
EGLDisplay. The EGLDisplay is destroyed by the Platform - so very late
on application exit. The Wayland display is unbound when the Compositor
terminates.
Test Plan:
Limited testing with the added auto-test. This one needs to
be extended to fully verify that OpenGL applications continue to work.
But this requires build.kde.org to support OpenGL on Wayland.

Summary:
When the cursor changes the old and the new cursor geometry needs to
be repainted. Also when the cursor image changes a repaint of old and
new geometry is needed.
To support this the current cursor geometry is tracked instead of just
the cursor position. From the cursor position it's not possible to get
to the cursor geometry once the cursor image or hotspot changes, thus
the complete geometry needs tracking.

This is invoked through the Compositor with a PreInit and a PostInit

The Platform plugin can implement this and use it for detecting whether
creating the OpenGL compositor on this platform crashed in the past.
Thus it's the base for the openGLIsBroken platform check.
The x11 standalone plugin is the first to implement this functionality
using the previous code which was designed for X11.
This also means that a crash of the OpenGL compositor during init on
Wayland won't result in OpenGL being disabled.
