This allows us to make the GLRenderTarget a bit nicer when using it to
wrap the default fbo as we don't know what the color attachment texture
is besides its size.
This means that the responsibility of ensuring that the color attachment
outlives the fbo is now up to the caller. However, most of kwin code
has been written that way, so it's not an issue.
Because the GLRenderTarget and the GLVertexBuffer use the global
coordinate system, they are not ergonomic in render layers.
Assigning the device pixel ratio to GLRenderTarget and GLVertexBuffer is
an interesting api design choice too. Scaling is a window system
abstraction, which is absent in OpenGL or Vulkan. For example, it's not
possible to create an OpenGL texture with a scale factor of 2. It only
works with device pixels.
This change makes the GLRenderTarget and the GLVertexBuffer more
ergonomic for usages other than rendering the workspace by removing all
the global coordinate system and scaling stuff. That's the
responsibility of the users of those two classes.
QPlatformScreen::virtualSiblings() must return a list of screens on the
virtual desktop, otherwise QToolTip will use
QGuiApplication::primaryScreen() instead of looking up the screen where
the decoration tooltip must be shown using QDesktopWidget::screenNumber().

recordFrame requires an openGL context. This is typically done after a
frame is rendered, but when we send a frame after a cursor move this is
not guaranteed.
BUG: 448162
XCURSOR_SIZE * scale factor is not the way to compute the current cursor
size. For example, with breeze cursor theme at an output with a scale of
2 and cursor size 24, cursor images will have the effective size of (64, 64).
Also, the cursor can change when passing over user interface elements.
In order to accommodate for all of that, this change makes kwin reserve
enough of space for a cursor of size 256x256. "256" is a magical number
that comes from DRM. With many drivers, the maximum cursor size is 256.
BUG: 448840
As of now, we update cursor metadata only when the screen content changes, but
this results into not having smooth cursor movement. We can update only mouse
cursor location when it changes and send an empty buffer with mouse cursor
metadata so clients can have update mouse location.
Kwin announces a format with alpha when Dma-Bufs are available, even
when the texture doesn't contain any. This results in clients segfault
when trying to access the buffer assuming a maxsize wrt. the announced
format by ways of dimensions and bpp.
This patch moves the format masking to affect the Dma-Buf transport
only.
Currently, MouseArea.doubleClicked doesn't work in QtQuick effects.
Luckily, the overview effect doesn't use it, but it's still worth making
sure that it works as expected regardless of whether it's a kwin effect.
With this change, the OffscreenQuickView will keep track of the last
mouse press event. If the second button press occurs within the mouse
double click interval, the OffscreenQuickView will generate a
QEvent::MouseButtonDblClick event, similar to what QGuiApplication would
normally do when processing window system events.
EffectQuickScene is not used strictly by effects, aurorae decorations
use it too to render window decorations.
This change renames the EffectQuickView/Scene to
OffscreenQuickView/Scene to clear up the naming scheme.
Currently, when screencasting a window, kwin may render a window into a
temporary offscreen texture, copy that offscreen texture to the dma-buf
render target, and discard the offscreen texture.
Allocating and deallocating offscreen textures is inefficient. Another
issue is that the screencast plugin uses Scene::Window::windowTexture().
It's a blocker for killing scene windows.
This change introduces a base ScreenCastSource type. It allows us to
move away from Scene::Window::windowTexture() and make the dma-buf code
path efficient with applications such as Firefox that utilize
sub-surfaces.
With the ScreenCastSource, kwin can also provide screen cast frames with
arbitrary device pixel ratio.
The Compositor contains nothing that can potentially get dirty and need
repainting.
As is, the advantages of this move aren't really noticeable, but it
makes sense with multiple scenes.
Backend parts are far from ideal, they can be improved later on as we
progress with the scene redesign.
This improves file organization in kwin by putting backends in a single
directory.
It also makes easier to discover kwin's low level components for new
contributors because the plugins directory may come as the last place to
look for. When one hears "plugin", the first thing that comes to mind is
regular plugins, not low level backends.
