Summary:
The GLX backend might need a combination of swap and composite timer events for
continous painting.
The reason for that is that if the buffer age extension is not available we
fall back to copies in case not the whole screen is repainted.
The timer logic is adapted to make this possible in a lean way what cleans up
the Compositor class in several ways.
Test Plan: Tested on X11 (with/without swap events, buffer age enabled) and Wayland.

Summary:
Activate intel swap events by default if available. They were hidden behind an
environmental variable because of some critical release blocking issue years
ago.
Manual testing indicates that there are no issues anymore with this extension.
Since it allows us to use swap events with MESA drivers for optimized repaints
enable swap events by default again.
For now leave a modified environment variable to switch back to using no swap
events easily.

Summary:
KDE is known for having a strong view on the client-side decorations vs
server-side decorations issue. The main argument raised against CSD is
that desktop will look less consistent when clients start drawing window
decorations by themselves, which is somewhat true. It all ties to how
well each toolkit is integrated with the desktop environment.
KDE doesn't control the desktop market on Linux. Another big "player"
is GNOME. Both KDE and GNOME have very polarized views on in which
direction desktop should move forward. The KDE community is pushing more
toward server-side decorations while the GNOME community is pushing
more toward client-side decorations. Both communities have developed
great applications and it's not rare to see a GNOME application being
used in KDE Plasma. The only problem is that these different views are
not left behind the curtain and our users pay the price. Resizing GTK
clients in Plasma became practically impossible due to resize borders
having small hit area.
When a client draws its window decoration, it's more likely that it also
draws the drop-shadow around the decoration. The compositor must know
the extents of the shadow so things like snapping and so on work as
expected. And here lies the problem... While the xdg-shell protocol has
a way to specify such things, the NetWM spec doesn't have anything like
that. There's _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS in the wild, however the problem with
it is that it's a proprietary atom, which is specific only to GTK apps.
Due to that, _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS wasn't implemented because implementing
anything like that would require major changes in how we think about
geometry.
Recent xdg-shell window geometry patches adjusted geometry abstractions
in kwin to such a degree that it's very easy to add support for client
side decorated clients on X11. We just have to make sure that the
X11Client class provides correct buffer geometry and frame geometry when
the gtk frame extents are set.
Even though the X11 code is feature frozen, I still think it's worth
to have _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS support in kwin because it will fix the resize
issues. Also, because KWin/Wayland is unfortunately far from becoming
default, it will help us with testing some implementation bits of the
window geometry from xdg-shell.

Summary:
Compositing in X11 was done time shifted, meaning that we paint first, then
wait one vblank interval length and present on prepareRenderingFrame the
previous paint result. This is supposed to make sure we don't miss the vblank
and in case of block till retrace be able to continue issuing commands and
only shortly before next vblank present.
This is counter-intuitiv, not how we do it on Wayland or even on MESA with X.
The reason seems to be that the GLX backend was in the beginning written
against Nvidia proprietary driver which needed this but nowadays even this
driver defaults to non-blocking behavior on buffer swap.
Therefore remove this legacy anomaly fully and directly present after paint.
We then wait one refresh cycle and in the future can optimize this by delaying
the paint and present till shortly before vsync.

Selecting not to vsync does not make sense for an X11 compositor. In the end
we want clients to be able to present async if they want to but the compositor
is supposed to send swaps with vsync to the XServer in order to not generate
tearing artifacts.
There was also a detection logic which did some questionable things in case
vsync was not available. I don't think this is necessary at all since we can
just always run a timer to present with or without vsync.

Summary:
It is not clear what the advantage of triple buffering is for KWin. An X11
compositor is meant to swap buffers once every monitor cycle. For that triple
buffering is not necessary.
The functionality is not maintained, does not reliably work as displayed by
the existence of an environment variable to force some behavior, pollutes
our code and every compositing-related problem that might be mitigated with
triple buffering should find a simpler and more fitting solution with other
means.
There is one caveat which is if we shall block for retrace. We set it
currently according to the result of the swap profiler and in the most common
case with double buffering it is set to true. But on Nvidia systems this might
be actual the wrong behavior. Instead of trying to work around this ignore
the issue for now and move the overall architecture to something less complex
by presenting after paint how we do it in the Wayland DRM backend and with
double buffering on GLX (although this is at the moment also borken because
we actually present then twice).

Summary:
EffectQuickView/Scene is a convenient class to render a QtQuick
scenegraph into an effect.
Current methods (such as present windows) involve creating an underlying
platform window which is expensive, causes a headache to filter out
again in the rest of the code, and only works as an overlay.
The new class exposes things more natively to an effect where we don't
mess with real windows, we can perform the painting anywhere in the view
and we don't have issues with hiding/closing.
QtQuick has both software and hardware accelerated modes, and kwin also
has 3 render backends. Every combination is supported.
* When used in OpenGL mode for both, we render into an FBO export the
texture ID then it's up to the effect to render that into a scene.
* When using software QtQuick rendering we blit into an image, upload
that into a KWinGLTexture which serves as an abstraction layer and
render that into the scene.
* When using GL for QtQuick and XRender/QPainter in kwin everything is
rendered into the internal FBO, blit and exported as an image.
* When using software rendering for both an image gets passed directly.
Mouse and keyboard events can be forwarded, only if the effect
intercepts them.
The class is meant to be generic enough that we can remove all the
QtQuick code from Aurorae.
The intention is also to replace EffectFrameImpl using this backend and
we can kill all of the EffectFrame code throughout the scenes.
The close button in present windows will also be ported to this,
simplifiying that code base.
Classes that handle the rendering and handling QML are intentionally
split so that in the future we can have a declarative effects API create
overlays from within the same context. Similar to how one can
instantiate windows from a typical QML scene.
Notes:
I don't like how I pass the kwin GL context from the backends into the
effect, but I need something that works with the library separation. It
also currently has wayland problem if I create a QOpenGLContext before
the QPA is set up with a scene - but I don't have anything better?
I know for the EffectFrame we need an API to push things through the
effects stack to handle blur/invert etc. Will deal with that when we
port the EffectFrame.

Summary:
Currently each managed X11 client is represented with an instance of
Client class, however the name of that class is very generic and the
only reason why it's called that way is because historically kwin
was created as an x11 window manager, so "Client" was a sensible choice.
With introduction of wayland support, things had changed and therefore
Client needs to be renamed to X11Client in order to better reflect what
that class stands for.
Renaming of Client to X11Client was agreed upon during the last KWin
sprint.

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.

Summary:
The NVIDIA implementation of glXSwapBuffers will, by default, queue up
to two frames for presentation before blocking. KWin's compositor,
however, assumes that calls to glXSwapBuffers will always block until
the next vblank when rendering double buffered. This assumption isn't
valid, as glXSwapBuffers is specified as being an implicit glFlush,
not an implicit glFinish, and so it isn't required to block. When this
assumption is violated, KWin's frame timing logic will
break. Specifically, there will be extraneous calls to
setCompositeTimer with a waitTime of 0 after the non-blocking buffer
swaps, dramatically reducing desktop responsiveness. To remedy this,
a call to glXWaitGL was added by Thomas Luebking after glXSwapBuffers
in 2015 (see bug 346275, commit
8bea96d701). That glXWaitGL call is
equivalent to a glFinish call in direct rendering, so it was a good
way to make glXSwapBuffers behave as though it implied a glFinish
call.
However, the NVIDIA driver will by default do a busy wait in glFinish,
for reduced latency. Therefore that change dramatically increased CPU
usage. GL_YIELD can be set to USLEEP (case insensitive) to change
the behavior and use usleep instead. When using the NVIDIA driver,
KWin will disable vsync entirely if GL_YIELD isn't set to USLEEP
(case sensitive, a bug in KWin).
However, the NVIDIA driver supports another environment variable,
__GL_MaxFramesAllowed, which can be used to control how many frames
may be queued by glXSwapBuffers. If this is set to 1 the function
will always block until retrace, in line with KWin's expectations.
This allows the now-unnecessary call to glXWaitGL to be removed along
with the logic to conditionally disable vsync, providing a better
experience on NVIDIA hardware.

Summary:
This is meant to address Bug 372114. The problem here is that the KConfig
object (and its derivatives), that the freeze detection thread needs to
record the freeze, are not thread safe. When it happens that the main
thread is in fact not frozen, it is possible that the two stomp on each
other's KConfig object.
The solution applied here is to use the KSharedConfig::openConfig
function, which is thread safe, on the freeze detection thread. As was
mentioned by Martin Flöser in the discussion, the thread needs to obey
the name of the main config file of KWin, which can change in the future.
As a secondary issue, this patch also turns off KCrash reporting for
aborts due to a freeze being detected. IMO it is not very user friendly
to still show a crash report to the user, even after this bug is fixed,
for the deliberate SIGABRT. Maybe a less intrusive notification could be
used to tell the user why effects are suddenly disabled?
I've been using kwin with this change for several weeks now and it makes
the restarts of kwin due to freezes unobtrusive. However, most (I would
say almost all) of these freezes are actually instances where the system
is being slow after eg. screen resolution is changed.

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.

Summary:
The Platform API is extended by a call to create the EffectsHandler. In
X11 standalone Platform a new EffectsHandlerImplX11 is added which
contains the X11 only parts of the EffectsHandler, such as grabbing the
X keyboard and the X11 mouse interception window.
The EffectsHandlerImpl gains some virtual methods for the parts which
are now done in the X11 specific implementation. In return we get rid of
lots of if-else structures checking for the operation mode.
Test Plan: Only compile tested.

Summary:
Unfortunately a rather large change which required more refactoring than
initially expected. The main problem was that some parts needed to go
into platformsupport so that the platform plugins can link them. Due to
the rather monolithic nature of scene_opengl.h a few changes were
required:
* SceneOpenGL::Texture -> SceneOpenGLTexture
* SceneOpenGL::TexturePrivate -> SceneOpenGLTexturePrivate
* texture based code into dedicated files
* SwapProfiler code into dedicated files
* SwapProfiler only used in x11 variants
* Safety checks for OpenGL scene moved into the new plugin
* signal declared in SceneOpenGL moved to Scene, so that we don't need
to include SceneOpenGL in composite
Test Plan: Nested OpenGL compositor works

No idea why the code compiles on my system. This change is based on the
output on build.kde.org.
CMakeFiles/testXRandRScreens.dir/__/plugins/platforms/x11/standalone/screens_xrandr.cpp.o:
In function `KWin::XRandRScreens::event(xcb_generic_event_t*)':
/home/jenkins/workspace/Plasma kwin kf5-qt5 SUSEQt5.9/plugins/platforms/x11/standalone/screens_xrandr.cpp:210:
undefined reference to `KWin::Options::currentRefreshRate()'
...
Summary:
The code in events.cpp was problematic as it was called in a Wayland
session. So KWin changed outputs, this gets mirrored to XWayland and
then KWin reacted on the XRandR event and might have even changed the
refresh rate due to that - bad idea.
This change moves the code into the already existing X11EventFilter for
XRandR events in XRandRScreens.
Test Plan: Run kwin_x11 in gdb on Xephyr, breakpoint in new code and triggered XRandR event

Summary:
This change splits out the X11 specific event filtering into a dedicated
X11EventFilter. It is created in the x11 standalone platform plugin when
the first Edge is being created.
Some of the X11 specific code is removed from ScreenEdges, though more
refactoring is possible in ScreenEdges to share more code between X11
specific and generic implementation.

Summary:
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:
The overlay window is only needed for the X11 based compositors. Given
that it is better suited in the X11 platform. Unfortunately it is not
possible to completely move it into the platform plugin as it is still
referenced in KWin core (e.g. SceneXRender). Due to that the
OverlayWindow in KWin core is turned into a pure virtual class with the
implementation being moved into the plugin.
The platform API gains a new virtual factory method which is only
implemented in the X11 platform.

Summary:
KWin already used C++14 constructs in a conditional way. This doesn't
make much sense today, it's better to just require C++14.
For KWin only gcc and clang are currently compilers of relevance. Gcc
supports C++14 since version 5 and defaults to C++14 since 6.1 [1].
Clang supports C++14 since version 3.4 [2].
An overview of compiler support in various distributions:
* Debian stable (stretch): gcc 6.3, clang 3.8
* Debian oldstable (jessie): 4.9, clang 3.5
* Ubuntu 17.04: gcc 6.1, clang 3.8
* Ubuntu 16.04: gcc 5.3, clang 3.8
* openSUSE Tumbleweed: gcc 7.1, clang 4.0
* openSUSE Leap 42.3: gcc ?, clang ? [3]
* FreeBSD: clang >= 34 in ports
* Slackware 14.2: gcc 5.3
This overview shows that every distro out there has at least one
supported compiler which can still compile KWin with this change.
[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html#cxx14
[2] https://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status

Summary:
Weird NVIDIA behavior fixup part 2. Now that we do no longer freeze when
NVIDIA decides to create an OpenGL error on startup
(aefb5f4dd9), we experience a new issue.
KWin is terminating (no idea why, [1]) and at the same time the OpenGL freeze
protection thread is still running. So far we did not terminate the
thread on shutdown and thus we hit an abort in Qt.
This change ensures that we properly terminate the thread on shutdown.
[1] My current theory is that games terminate KWin, common pattern of
bug reports is "steam".

Summary:
There is a regression in WindowBasedEdge::soStopApproaching. Due to
only operate when the edge activates for pointer it is possible that
the cursor polling stays active. Explaining the situation:
1. Activate switch desktop when moving window
2. Start moving a window
3. Move mouse into the approach geometry
-> doStartApproaching activates as we are moving a window
4. stop moving window
-> doStopApproaching early exits as the position does not activate for
pointer any more - we are not moving a window
-> cursor polling is still connected and whenever mouse enters edge
approaching is started
The analysis shows that the check whether activates for pointer is wrong
in the case of stop approaching. If the edge started to approach, we also
need to stop approaching.
This change addresses the problem by turning the check into whether the
connection for cursor position update is set.
This is the third bug fix to the X11 screen edge handling after
introducing touch screen edges. This needs more manual testing by
everybody in the Plasma team who is still using X11.

Summary:
To have touch events working we need to do memory layout changes on the
xcb events. This is fine for identifying the touch events which should
trigger the screen edge. But when passed on to Qt to have QtQuick windows
(e.g. Alt+Tab) handle the touch events, this results in a problem:
Qt itself does also the memory movement and then the movement is double
and touch events break.
To prevent this problem an RAII class is added which moves the memory in
the ctor and moves it back in the dtor. So during KWin's processing it
has the right memory layout and later on in Qt's processing it has the
proper "wrong" layout which Qt can fix again.

Summary:
Another regression from enabling touch support on X11.
The approach window for pointer input gets unmapped as soon as the mouse
enters the window. This ensures that mouse motion events are not stolen
from other applications. But with the touch events we did not even react
on the enter event if it's not activated for pointer. The result was an
area around the screenedge being blocked for pointer input.
This change only creates and maps the approach window if the edge is
activated for pointer input.
