Summary:
Currently, each frame callback sent by KWin has the current time in
nanoseconds, but the protocol spec states that we have to send the time
in milliseconds. This is the reason why animations that are driven by
frame callbacks are too fast.
In addition to that, m_timeSinceStart isn't actually "time since start,"
it's rather accumulated duration of all painting cycles. If there is
something to draw and it takes quite a while to compose the scene, maybe
m_timeSinceStart will be close enough to the current time. So, it has
been replaced with QElapsedTimer, this makes the current time correct
and also simplifies code a little bit.
Test Plan: The triangle in weston-subsurfaces no longer spins very fast.

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:
Currently, KWin/Wayland crashes when the compositor is reinitialized.
The reason for that is ShellClient's DecorationRenderer gets destroyed
when the scene is already gone, thus there is no current OpenGL context.
Client works around that issue by destroying scene-specific DecorationRender
in finishCompositing. Such a workaround could be applied to ShellClient
as well, but it would make code more confusing because DecoratedClientImpl
also tries to destroy DecorationRenderer.
A better approach would be to notify DecoratedClientImpl that
compositing is about to be finished, so it can destroy the decoration
renderer when the scene is still alive. This not only fixes the
previously mentioned issue in ShellClient, but also makes code a little
bit tidier.
Test Plan:
Start Plasma on Wayland session, change any compositor settings (e.g.
animation speed).

Currently, if a Wayland surface registers a frame callback but does
not send a damage event, the callback will not be serviced even after
KWin has completed a compositing cycle and is therefore ready to
render a new frame for the surface. Since some clients, including any
using NVIDIA's Wayland EGL implementation, wait for frame events
before preparing each frame this behavior can result in hangs if a
compositing cycle occurs between registering the frame callback and
sending the damage event.
Instead, in accordance with the Wayland specification, frame callbacks
should be serviced (via KWayland::Server::SurfaceInterface::frameRendered)
for all visible windows - not just those damaged since the last
compositing cycle.
Summary:
The SceneOpenGLES test was starting to randomly crash on my system. On
investigation I observed that there was a graphics reset ("Attempting to
reset compositing.") which triggered a delayed restart of the
compositor. This even was only processed while waiting for XWayland to
terminate. Which resulted in a crash in KWin::getXServerVersion as the
xcb connection broke.
It makes no sense to setup the compositor again during application
shutdown. Thus the dtors set a flag that they are terminating the
application and Compositor::setup is checking for it.

AnimationEffect tries gracefully release deleted windows, but because
in some cases(like when suspending compositing) a deleted window can

This change adjusts the order in which effect windows and effects are

The Compositor now tries to create a Scene not just once but every

configuration is only used as a preferred hint and tried first if the
platform supports it.
This brings as an advantage that on platforms such as framebuffer the
user does not need to specify which compositor to use: KWin uses QPainter
automatically.
Also we don't need to do the "translation" from XRender to QPainter any
more. XRender is not supported by any platform using QPainter, so the

The main reason is that the class should be moved out of KWin core in

problem which is easily solved by turning the AbstractEglBackend into a

This change refactors the code so that if X11 support is missing the code

gets claimed.
Also if the connection goes away the selection is deleted, though it
might be that this does not work as KSelectionOwner might call into xcb

This change is similar to D7232 and moves the scene_qpainter into a
dedicated plugin. Compared to the XRender case it's more complicated as
the platform plugins need to implement a platform specific backend.
The base implementation for this part used to be in scene_qpainter. As
the idea is to completly move it away from KWin core it would be point
less to still have the backend definition in KWin core, but it cannot
be in the scene plugin as otherwise all platforms need to link the
plugin.
To solve this a new platformsupport subdirectory is added which contains
the scene platform backend as a static library. For the OpenGL scene such
a static library will also be required.

Summary:
First step for loading the compositor Scenes through plugins. The general
idea is that we currently needlessly pull in all the Scenes although only
one will be used.
E.g. on X11 we pull in QPainter, although they are not compatible. On
Wayland we pull in XRender although they are not compatible.
Furthermore our current Scene creation strategy is not really fault
tolerant and can create situations where we don't get a compositor. E.g
on fbdev backend the default settings won't work as it does not support
OpenGL.
Long term I want to tackle those conceptional problems together:
we try to load all plugins supported by the current platform till we have
a scene which works. Thus on Wayland we don't end up in a situation where
we don't have a working compositor because the configuration is bad.
To make this possible the switch statement in the Scene needs to go and
needs to be replaced by a for loop iterating over all the available
scenes on the platform. If we go there it makes sense to replace it
directly with a plugin based approach.
So this is a change which tackles the problem by first introducing the
plugin loading. The xrender based scene (as it's the most simple one)
is moved into a plugin. It is first tried to find a scene plugin and only
if there is none the existing code is used.

Introduce a method Workspace::markXStackingOrderAsDirty
Summary:
This method replaces the calls x_stacking_dirty = true in the code base
allowing for further refactoring of that functionality.
Remove roundtrip to XServer from Workspace::xStackingOrder
The method xStackingOrder is only used during a Compositor paint pass.
If the stacking order had changed, the method updated the stacking order
from X by performing a sync XQueryTree. With other words we had a round
trip to the X server directly in the paint pass.
This change rearchitectures this area by making better use of xcb. When
we notice that the stacking order changed and an XQueryTree is needed,
we directly send out the request. When xStackingOrder is finally called,
which normally happens a few milliseconds later, the reply is retreived.
In the worst case it still blocks, but in most cases the roundtrip is
gone.
If the stacking order changed again before accessing xStackingOrder the
running request is cancelled and a new request is issued. So whenever we
get into xStackingOrder it will have the current state.
The updating of the xStackingOrder is moved into a dedicated method and
xStackingOrder invokes it through a const_cast instead of operating on
mutable variables.

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

This fixes a regression found in TestSceneQPainter for restarting the
Compositor. The internal clients were never added to the Scene.
We cannot just call setupCompositing because there is a phase during
startup where setupCompositing already passes but the Compositor is not
yet fully initialized. Thus it could happen that it's called twice which
makes the Scene assert.
To solve that setupCompositing and finishCompositing are now overriden
in ShellClient and track whether they successfully called
setupCompositing.
We should be able to restart the Compositor also on Wayland.
As the Compositor might be terminated after Workspace we need to
ensure to not call into Workspace while doing finishCompositing.

Summary:
Rational: unredirect fullscreen windows is a weird beast. It's intended
to make fullscreen windows "faster" by not compositing that screen. But
that doesn't really work as KWin jumps out of that condition pretty
quickly. E.g. whenever a tooltip window is shown. KWin itself has a
better functionality by supporting to block compositing completely.
The complete code was full of hacks around it to try to ensure that
things don't break.
Overall unredirect fullscreen has always been the odd one. We had it
because a compositor needs to have it, but it never got truly integrated.
E.g. effects don't interact with it properly so that some things randomly
work, others don't. Will it trigger the screenedge, probably yes, but
will it show the highlight: properly no.
By removing the functionality we finally acknowledge that this mode is
not maintained and has not been maintained for years and that we do not
intend to support it better in future. Over the years we tried to make
it more and more hidden: it's disabled for Intel GPUs, because it used
to crash KWin. It's marked as an "expert" option, etc.
It's clearly something we tried to hide from the user that it exists.
For Wayland the whole unredirect infrastructure doesn't make sense
either. There is no such thing as "unredirecting". We might make use
of passing buffers directly to the underlying stack, but that will be
done automatically when we know it can be done, not by some magic is
this a window of specific size.

had that working.

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:
So far when a ShellClient got unmapped ready_for_painting was set to

animation impossible.
This change makes use of the functionality available in
Client::hiddenInternal(). The window is considered as hidden, thus
still excluded from e.g. getting input events, but could be rendered
any time as we still have a previous window pixmap (if referenced).
This allows to have it considered in the rendering pass, but effects
still cannot make use of it as that state is not yet exposed to the
effects.
