Summary:
Since KDE 4.2 - 4.3 times, KWin doesn't paint window decorations on real
X11 windows, except when compositing is turned off. This leaves us with
a problem. The actual client contents is inside a larger texture with no
useful pixel data around it. This and decoration texture bleeding are
the main factors that contribute to 1px gap between the server-side
decoration and client contents with effects such as wobbly windows, and
zoom.
Another problem with naming frame pixmap instead of client pixmap is
that it doesn't quite go along with wayland. It only makes more difficult
to abstract window quad generation in the scene.
Since we don't actually need the frame window when compositing is on,
there is nothing that holds us from redirecting client windows instead
of frame windows. This will help us to fix the texture bleeding issue
and also help us with the ongoing redesign of the scene.
Test Plan: X11 clients are still composited.

Summary:
Qt has its own thing where a type might also have corresponding list
alias, e.g. QObject and QObjectList, QWidget and QWidgetList. I don't
know why Qt does that, maybe for some historical reasons, but what
matters is that we copy this pattern here in KWin. While this pattern
might be useful with some long list types, for example
QList<QWeakPointer<TabBoxClient>> TabBoxClientList
in general, it causes more harm than good. For example, we've got two
new client types, do we need corresponding list typedefs for them? If
no, why do we have ClientList and so on?
Another problem with these typedefs is that you need to include utils.h
header in order to use them. A better way to handle such things is to
just forward declare a client class (if that's possible) and use it
directly with QList or QVector. This way translation units don't get
"bloated" with utils.h stuff for no apparent reason.
So, in order to make code more consistent and easier to follow, this
change drops some of our custom typedefs. Namely ConstClientList,
ClientList, DeletedList, UnmanagedList, ToplevelList, and GroupList.
Test Plan: Compiles.

Summary:
Currently our Scene is quite naive about geometry. It assumes that the
window frame wraps the attached buffer/client. While this is true for X11
clients, such geometry model is not suitable for client-side decorated
clients, in our case for xdg-shell clients that set window geometry
other than the bounding rectangle of the main surface.
In general, the proposed solution doesn't make any concrete assumptions
about the order between frame and buffer geometry, however we may still
need to reconsider the design of Scene once it starts to generate quads
for sub-surfaces.

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.
Test Plan: kwin_x11 tested on i915 and Nvidia proprietary driver.

Summary:
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:
In order to properly implement xdg_surface.set_window_geometry we need
two kinds of geometry - frame and buffer. The frame geometry specifies
visible bounds of the client on the screen, excluding client-side drop
shadows. The buffer geometry specifies rectangle on the screen that the
attached buffer or x11 pixmap occupies on the screen.
This change renames the geometry property to frameGeometry in order to
reflect the new meaning assigned to it as well to make it easier to
differentiate between frame geometry and buffer geometry in the future.

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:
So far wayland was used by internal clients to submit raster buffers
and position themselves on the screen. While we didn't have issues with
submitting raster buffers, there were some problems with positioning
task switchers. Mostly, because we had effectively two paths that may
alter geometry.
A better approach to deal with internal clients is to let our QPA use
kwin core api directly. This way we can eliminate unnecessary roundtrips
as well make geometry handling much easier and comprehensible.
The last missing piece is shadows. Both Plasma::Dialog and Breeze widget
style use platform-specific APIs to set and unset shadows. We need to
add shadows API to KWindowSystem. Even though some internal clients lack
drop-shadows at the moment, I don't consider it to be a blocker. We can
add shadows back later on.

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:
If hardware cursor support is not available when using the drm backend for
Wayland compositing, the software cursor texture will not be updated when the
cursor image changes, and it will still be drawn when no cursor image is set
(such as when running a full-screen game). Furthermore, the drmModeSetCursor
and drmModeMoveCursor functions will still be unnecessarily called when the
cursor is moved or hidden.
To correct this, SceneOpenGL should connect Platform::cursorChanged as opposed
to Cursor::cursorChanged to its texture update function, as only the former
will be emitted when the cursor is updated and the compositor should check if
the cursor is hidden and the software cursor image is not null before rendering
it. DrmBackend::moveCursor and DrmBackend::hideCursor should also return
immediately if using a software cursor.

Current implementation of buildQuads assumes that corner shadow tiles
are always present:
const QRectF leftRect(
topLeftRect.bottomLeft(),
bottomLeftRect.topRight());
but that assumption is wrong. For example, if the default panel is on
the bottom screen edge, then the calendar popup won't have the
bottom-left shadow tile(at least on Wayland). Which means that the left
shadow tile won't be visible because
topLeftRect.left() == bottomLeftRect.right().
Corner rectangles only have to influence height of the left/right tile
and width of the top/bottom tile. Width of the left/right tile and
height of the top/bottom tile should not be controlled by corner tiles.
Overall, this is how shadow quads are computed:
* Compute the outer rectangle;
* Compute target rectangle for each corner tile. If some corner tile is
missing, move the target rectangle to the corresponding corner of the
inner shadow rect and set its width and height to 0. We need to do
that to prevent top/right/bottom/left tiles from spanning over
corners:
{F6190219, layout=center, size=full}
We would rather prefer something like this if the top-left tile is
missing:

then tile between them(top/right/bottom/left) is not rendered.
Also, because some corner tile parts can be excluded, corner tiles
are expected to be symmetrical(i.e. if we remove right half from
the top-left tile and left half from the top-right tile and
stick them together, they still look fine, there are no misalignments, etc).
Most shadows(e.g. shadows from Breeze) have such behaviour.
