Plasma Mobile announced that they plan to drop support for Halium
devices, see the announcement blog post [1] for the reasons that led to
such a decision.
But just to summarize, here are some of the key points from the post:
* Some of our team members no longer have access to reference LG Nexus
5X device anymore
* After KDE Neon switched to using Ubuntu 20.04 we no longer are
updating the rootfs for halium devices
* After several important architecture changes in upstream KWin, the
hwcomposer backend might be broken and we have no way of verifying it
If the community members are interested in reviving the hwcomposer
backend,
* it pretty much needs rewrite/re-thinking given differences of hwc1
and hwc2 API for hwcomposer part of it, see also [2]
* It also needs removal of Android 5 based libhardware API as we don't
think code can be kept sane with 3 different levels of ifdefs
* This backend needs better way of fixing difference between
CAF/non-CAF devices then just recompiling with different headers,
maybe env vars?
* This backend does not support various things like transformation/
rotation etc, and is not exactly feature complete as the DRM backend

This change introduces a new component - ColorManager that is
responsible for color management stuff.
At the moment, it's very naive. It is useful only for updating gamma
ramps. But in the future, it will be extended with more CMS-related
features.
The ColorManager depends on lcms2 library. This is an optional
dependency. If lcms2 is not installed, the color manager won't be built.
This also fixes the issue where colord and nightcolor overwrite each
other's gamma ramps. With this change, the ColorManager will resolve the
conflict between two.
We need the multimedia component only to play preview videos in a KCM.
The find_package(Qt5Multimedia) is not needed because we already check
if Qt5Multimedia QML module is present using ecm_find_qmlmodule().
The main motivation behind this change is to work around constant build
failures caused by buggy config file of the Qt5::Multimedia component.
Set -DLIBINPUT_HAS_TOTEM per file rather than per target so that all
targets that build it have the define.
This particular file is also used by some tests and this fixes the
warning that this ifdef resolves at once for all targets.
One of the annoying things about EGL headers is that they include
platform headers by default, e.g. on X11, it's Xlib.h, etc.
The problem with Xlib.h is that it uses the define compiler directive to
declare constants and those constants have very generic names, e.g.
'None', which typically conflict with enums, etc.
In order to work around bad things coming from Xlib.h, we include
fixx11.h file that contains some workarounds to redefine some Xlib's
types.
There's a flag or rather two flags (EGL_NO_PLATFORM_SPECIFIC_TYPES and
EGL_NO_X11) that are cross-vendor and they can be used to prevent EGL
headers from including platform specific headers, such as Xlib.h [1]
The benefit of setting those two flags is that you can simply include
EGL/egl.h or epoxy/egl.h and the world won't explode due to Xlib.h
MESA_EGL_NO_X11_HEADERS is set to support older versions of Mesa.
[1] https://github.com/KhronosGroup/EGL-Registry/pull/111
Night Color adjusts the color temperature based on the current time in
your location. It's not a generic color correction module per se.
We need a central component that can be used by both night color and
colord integration to tweak gamma ramps and which will be able to
resolve conflicts between the two. The Night Color manager cannot be
such a thing because of its very specific usecase.
This change converts Night Color into a plugin to prepare some space for
such a component.
The tricky part is that the dbus api of Night Color has "ColorCorrect"
in its name. I'm afraid we cannot do that much about it without breaking
API compatibility.
krunner stuff doesn't really belong in kwin, it has nothing to do with
compositing or any other things that are the domain of compositors.
Given that, being as a plugin suits the krunner integration stuff best.
This change introduces basic colord integration in wayland session. It
is implemented as a binary plugin.
If an output is connected, the plugin will create the corresponding
colord device using the D-Bus API and start monitoring the device for
changes.
When a colord devices changes, the plugin will read the VCGT tag of the
current ICC color profile and apply it.
The scripting api is not suitable for implementing all features that
should not be implemented in libkwin. For example, the krunner
integration or screencasting are the things that don't belong to be
compiled right into kwin and yet we don't have any other choice.
This change introduces a quick and dirty plugin infrastructure that
can be used to implement things such as colord integration, krunner
integration, etc.
Without the KWindowSystem integration plugin, Wayland experience will be
negatively affected because windows created by kwin itself won't behave
as desired. Therefore it makes little sense to load this plugin at runtime.
On wayland, we know we're always going to load our internal QPA. Instead
of shipping a plugin and loading it dynamically we can use Qt static
plugins.
This should result in slightly faster load times, but also reduce the
number of moving pieces for kwin.
This also prevents anyone outside kwin loading our QPA which wouldn't
have made any sense and just crashed.
Currently, we use glFinish() to ensure that stream consumers don't see
corrupted or rather incomplete buffers. This is a serious issue because
glFinish() not only prevents the gpu from processing new GL commands,
but it also blocks the compositor.
This change addresses the blocking issue by using native fences. With
the proposed change, after finishing recording a frame, a fence is
inserted in the command stream. When the native fence is signaled, the
pending pipewire buffer will be enqueued.
If the EGL_ANDROID_native_fence_sync extension is not supported, we'll
fall back to using glFinish().
VirtualKeyboard class does not implement the relevant VirtualKeyboard
protocol but rather implements the InputMethod protcol and can in theory
be used by other input method like e.g. ibus.
Make class name consistent with what it does to avoid confusion in
future.
For now only rename of main class is done and dbus service is kept as-is
to provide retro-compatibility, when input method protocol is
implemented fully, we can think of what to do wrt the dbus interface
later when we fully implement zwp_input_method_unstable_v1 protocol.
This change introduces a shell integration class for input panel
surfaces. This effectively breaks the direct dependency between our
virtual keyboard component in kwin and the input_panel protocol,
which means that an input method server could use the layer-shell
protocol instead of the input_panel protocol.
The layer-shell protocol allows wayland clients to create surfaces that
can be used for building desktop environment components such as panels,
notifications, etc.
The support for the plasma-shell protocol will be dropped once plasma in
all its entirety is ported to the layer-shell protocol.
in XdgSurfaceClient setFrameGeometry is async,
so we can't rely on it having the final value immediately.
make setVirtualKeyboardGeometry a virtual.
in the implementation on setVirtualKeyboardGeometry
use requestedFrameGeometry() instead of frameGeometry()
When the Xwayland process crashes, we will print a warning message, but
that warning message won't show up anywhere in the terminal because the
current message severity for KWIN_XWL is way too high.
This patch lowers the message severity for the KWIN_XWL logging category
so warning messages can be seen from the terminal.
Currently in order to load an Xcursor theme, kwin uses libwayland api,
which looks really awkward because of the way how the compositor talks
to itself via the internal connection.
The main motivation behind this change is to limit the usage of kwayland
client api in kwin.
- The name of tty devices is different; put detection into
the CMakeLists and pass that as a define when building
virtual_terminal.cpp -- this means no ifdeffery for the path.
- The name of dri devices is different; FreeBSD just has one.
- On FreeBSD epoll.h if provided through a library (from a port, epoll-shim)
that emulates the Linux behavior. Make a CMake module for it to hide
differences in systems behind a module.
- Find epoll on FreeBSD and link to it
Now on FreeBSD, tries to compile virtual_terminal.cpp, which will fail because
that needs more patches.
There are several ways to handle unmapping of a wl_surface. The first
one is to destroy the associated AbstractClient instance. The second one
is to transition the AbstractClient in a special state.
The problem with the second approach is that it makes animations such as
fade out more difficult to handle since effects in kwin are geared more
towards the first approach (destroying AbstractClient).
Summary:
This change splits the XdgShellClient class to better match existing
abstractions in the xdg-shell protocol and fix a few issues related to
sending configure events.
In the new client classes, configure events are handled differently.
Instead of blocking configure events, we try to send them as late as
possible. Delaying configure events will let us merge changeMaximize()
for X11 clients and Wayland clients and it also fixes the bug where
we don't send the final configure event when user has finished resizing
a window.
Given that configure events are not sent immediately, XdgSurfaceClient
keeps the last requested frame geometry and the last requested client
geometry.
This patch doesn't intend to fix all issues in kwin's implementation of
the xdg-shell protocol. For example, we still handle surface unmapping
very poorly.
Test Plan: Tests pass.

In case Xwayland does not use multiple buffers, the currently attached
buffer is going to be destroyed if the frame window is resized. It may
render the previous and the current window pixmap invalid and thus result
in visual artifacts when an X11 client is being interactively resized.
In order to avoid the visual artifacts, this change disables support for
synchronized resizing for X11 clients if the version of Xwayland is less
than the version in which Xwayland started using multiple buffers, i.e.
1.21.

This requires that kwin launches after ksmserver to have the connection

Practically this code is already ksmserver specific as it relies on some
custom code that sends the first saveState request to kwin first.
Instead we can replace it with a bespoke IPC over DBus and siplify the
code both end. This will allow several other future enhancements that we
want with regards to handling the session state, as well as make an
effort platform agnostic session management, as well as cleaning up some
complex code.
Ksmserver calls into kwin, rather than having kwin watch ksmserver state
to allow us make sure it's race free.

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:
This is the initial implementation of a DRM backend based on the EGLDevice,
EGLOutput, and EGLStream extensions, supporting NVIDIA graphics hardware using
their proprietary driver. The new backend will be used if the environment
variable KWIN_DRM_USE_EGL_STREAMS is set. On initialization, it will attempt to
create an EGLDevice based on the DRM device currently in use and create
EGLOutputs and EGLStreams for any attached displays. These are used to control
presentation of the final composited frame. Additionally, it will register the
wl_eglstream_controller Wayland interface so that native EGL windows created by
clients can be attached to an EGLStream allowing buffer contents to be shared
with the compositor as a GL texture.
At this time there are two known bugs in the NVIDIA driver's EGL implementation
affecting desktop functionality. The first can result in tooltip windows drawn
by plasmashell to contain incorrect contents. The second prevents KWayland from
being able to query the format of EGLStream-backed buffers which interferes
with the blur effect. Fixes for both of these are currently in development and
should appear in an upcoming NVIDIA driver release.
Additionally, hardware cursors are currently not supported with this backend.
Enabling them causes the desktop to intermittently hang for several seconds.
This is also likely a bug in the NVIDIA DRM-KMS implementation but the root
cause is still under investigation.
Test Plan:
On a system with an NVIDIA graphics card running a recent release of their
proprietary driver
* Ensure the nvidia_drm kernel module is loaded with the option "modeset=1"
("# cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset" should print "Y")
* Ensure EGL external platform support is installed
https://github.com/NVIDIA/eglexternalplatform
* Ensure KWin was build with the CMake option
KWIN_BUILD_EGL_STREAM_BACKEND=ON (this is the default)
* Start a plasma wayland session with the environment variable
KWIN_DRM_USE_EGL_STREAMS set
* Ensure output from KWin OpenGL initialization indicates the NVIDIA EGL
driver is in use (as opposed to Mesa / llvmpipe).
* Desktop should be fully functional and perform smoothly.

Summary:
Most of the functionality which is special to internal clients is moved
from ShellClient to InternalClient. As KWin's qpa is still bound to the
Wayland protocol InternalClient inherits from ShellClient. Due to that
some aspects in ShellClient are "weird". ShellClient still detects
whether it's an internal client and uses the variable m_internal to
capture the state. This is required as we cannot use the isInternal
method. Most of m_internal usage is in init which is called from
constructor of ShellClient. Thus it's not possible to call into virtual
methods of InternalClient.
Also some of the code is duplicated and some methods are temporarily
marked as virtual.
The next step will be to remove ShmBuffer for internal windows which
should decouple the two implementations further with the long term goal
of having InternalClient inherit AbstractClient directly.
Test Plan:
Run nested KWin, triggered outline (OpenGL case) and debug console (shm case).
InternalWindow unit test still passes.

Summary:
Building upon the generic X Selection support this patch establishes another
selection class representing the XDND selection and provides interfaces
to communicate drags originating from Xwayland windows to the Wayland
server KWin and drags originating from Wayland native drags to Xwayland.
For Wayland native drags KWin will claim the XDND selection as owner and
will simply translate all relevant events to the XDND protocol and receive
alike messages by X clients.
When an X client claims the XDND selection KWin is notified via the X protocol
and it decides if it allows the X drag to transcend into the Wayland protocol.
If this is the case the mouse position is tracked and on entering a Wayland
native window a proxy X Window is mapped to the top of the window stack. This
proxy window acts as a drag destination for the drag origin window and again
X messages will be translated into respective Wayland protocol calls. If the
cursor leaves the Wayland window geometry before a drop is registered, the
proxy window is unmapped, what triggers a subsequent drag leave event.
In both directions the necessary core integration is minimal. There is a single
call to be done in the drag and drop event filter through the Xwayland
interface class.
From my tests this patch facilitates drags between any Qt/KDE apps. What needs
extra care are the browsers, which use target formats, that are not directly
compatible with the Wayland protocol's MIME representation. For Chromium an
additional integration step must be done in order to provide it with a net
window stack containing the proxy window.
Test Plan: Manually. Auto tests planned.

Summary:
In this patch an infrastructure is created to represent generic X selections
in a Wayland session and use them for data transfers between Xwayland windows
and Wayland native clients.
The central manager is the DataBridge class, in which Selection objects can be
created. This is hard-coded and such a Selection object persists until the end
of the session, so no arbitrary selections can be created on the fly. For now
the X Clipboard selection is supported, whose corresponding mechanism in the
Wayland protocol is just called Selection.
A Selection object listens for selection owner changes on the X side and for
similar events into the Wayland server interfaces. If a data provider is
available a selection source object is created by the Selection object. In case
data is requested on the other side, a data transfer is initialized by creating
a Transfer object. A Selection keeps track of all transfers and makes sure that
they are destroyed when they are finished or in case they idle because of
misbehaving clients.
The Clipboard class translates the X Clipboard via a proxy window. Selection
changes on the Wayland side are listened to through a new signal on the active
KWayland seat interface.
The previously used X clipboard syncer helper is disabled. The clipboard sync
autotest is changed to the new mechanism.
BUG: 394765
BUG: 395313
Test Plan: Manually and clipboard sync autotest.

Summary:
The Xwayland code path is moved from ApplicationWayland to a dedicated class
Xwayland in a new top-level directory xwl.
This is a direct preparation step for generic support of Xwayland Selections.
On a longer timescale this should also allow us to further separate Wayland
native functionality from Xwayland to allow us at one point to build KWin's
Wayland binary optionally without X dependencies. Another long term goal, that
becomes possible through this separation is to recover from Xwayland crashes.
Test Plan: Manually and auto tests

Summary:
Default CXX flags are out of our control. Whether they're set by the
compiler or the user or ECM.
We currently disable for clang. This patch also disables this warning
for other compilers.
This might not be anyone's first preference, but we're at an impasse
there.

This is a preparation step to move this to ECM (or possibly CMake),
which makes sense now that qtbase is using this too (for Qt6).

Summary:
On touch events the mouse cursor gets hidden, on next mouse event the
mouse cursor is shown again. This IMHO significantly improves the system
interaction if touch is the primary user interface.

Summary:
Kwin tried to not use kcrash by not linking against it.
KIO now links against KCrash as we link against KIO we indirectly link
against KCrash and thus now link and launch kcrash on wayland. This
breaks coredump.
Arguably it should be fixed in KIO, but it's non-trivial.
The advantage of this approach is it allows us to enable drkonqi for
nested mode in the future, or make a non-gui drkonqi that just saves
logs.

Summary:
implement virtual desktop support for Wayland.
use the new virtual desktop protocol from D12820
The VirtualDesktopManager class needed some big change in order
to accomodate it, which is where most changes are.
Other than that, it's mostly connections to wire up
VirtualDesktopsManager and VirtualDesktopsManagement(the wayland protocol impl)
Depends on D12820
Other notable detail, is the client visibility updated to reflect the presence
of the client in the plasmavirtualdesktop.
(and the unSetDesktop concept)
Test Plan: used a bit a plasma session together with D12820, D13748 and D13746

Lift high-level properties into new Screens child class for platform plugins
using the Output class.
Directly make DrmScreens a child class of OutputScreens.
Test Plan: Manually and auto tests with 94%.
Reviewers: #kwin
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D11782
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.
Test Plan: Manually.
