Instead of having the EffectFrameImpl check the compositor type and do
the decision which Scene::EffectFrame to create, a pure virtual method
in Scene is called which returns the specific Scene::EffectFrame.
Allow prepareRenderingFrame() to return a region that will be
repainted in addition to the damaged region.
Pass both the damaged region and the repainted region, which
may be larger, as parameters to endRenderingFrame().
With QtQuick2 it's possible that the scene graph rendering context either
lives in an own thread or uses the main GUI thread. In the latter case
it's the same thread as our compositing OpenGL context lives in. This
means our basic assumption that between two rendering passes the context
stays current does not hold.
The code already ensured that before we start a rendering pass the
context is made current, but there are many more possible cases. If we
use OpenGL in areas not triggered by the rendering loop but in response
to other events the context needs to be made current. This includes the
loading and unloading of effects (some effects use OpenGL in the static
effect check, in the ctor and dtor), background loading of texture data,
lazy loading after first usage invoked by shortcut, etc. etc.
To properly handle these cases new methods are added to EffectsHandler
to make the compositing OpenGL context current. These calls delegate down
into the scene. On non-OpenGL scenes they are noop, but on OpenGL they go
into the backend and make the context current. In addition they ensure
that Qt doesn't think that it's QOpenGLContext is current by calling
doneCurrent() on the QOpenGLContext::currentContext(). This unfortunately
causes an additional call to makeCurrent with a null context, but there
is no other way to tell Qt - it doesn't notice when a different context
is made current with low level API calls. In the multi-threaded
architecture this doesn't matter as ::currentContext() returns null.
A short evaluation showed that a transition to QOpenGLContext doesn't
seem feasible. Qt only supports either GLX or EGL while KWin supports
both and when entering the transition phase for Wayland, it would become
extremely tricky if our native platform is X11, but we want a Wayland
EGL context. A future solution might be to have a "KWin-QPA plugin" which
uses either xcb or Wayland and hides everything from Qt.
The API documentation is extended to describe when the effects-framework
ensures that an OpenGL context is current. The effects are changed to
make the context current in cases where it's not guaranteed. This has
been done by looking for creation or deletion of GLTextures and Shaders.
If there are other OpenGL usages outside the rendering loop, ctor/dtor
this needs to be changed, too.
According to massif just creating the ColorCorrection costs 2 MiB, so
it makes sense to not create it if it is not used.

DIGEST: Smaller memory footprint in KWin 4.11.2 if color correction is disabled
This backend is able to composite on a Wayland surface instead of an X11
overlay window. It can be considered as a prototype for a Wayland session
compositor.
For texture from X11 pixmap the backend uses XShm. This is far from
optimal, but the KHR_image_pixmap extension is not available in Mesa's
Wayland backend. It's a temporary solution till we have XWayland and
texture from Wayland buffer.
To use this backend one needs to specify the environment variable
KWIN_OPENGL_INTERFACE with "egl_wayland". In future KWin should probably
use this backend if the Wayland display env variable is defined.
To use this setup:
1. Have a normal X-Server running on e.g. VT7
2. Start Weston on VT1
3. Start a terminal on Weston
4. start KWin with:
DISPLAY=:0 KWIN_OPENGL_INTERFACE=egl_wayland kwin --replace &
This should map a Wayland surface to Weston showing the content of the X
setup. At the moment it's not yet possible to interact with the surface
as input events are not yet recieved in the backend.
There are still a lot of limitations as documented in the code.
Cross fading with previous pixmap is achieved by referencing the old
window pixmap. WindowPaintData has a cross-fade-factor which interpolates
between 0.0 (completely old pixmap) to 1.0 (completely new pixmap).
If a cross fading factor is set and a previous pixmap is valid this one
is rendered on top of the current pixmap with opacity adjusted. This
results in a smoother fading.
To simplify the setup the AnimationEffect is extended and also takes care
about correctly (un)referencing the previous window pixmap. The maximize
effect is adjusted to make use of this new capabilities.
Unfortunately this setup has a huge problem with the case that the window
decoration gets smaller (e.g. from normal to maximized state). In this
situation it can happen that the old window is rendered with parts outside
the content resulting in video garbage being shown. To prevent this a set
of new WindowQuads is generated with normalized texture coordinates in
the safe area which contains real content.
For OpenGL2Window a PreviousContentLeaf is added which is only set up in
case the crass fading factor is set.
REVIEW: 110578
The behavior for creating a pixmap for a window is moved from Toplevel
into a dedicated class WindowPixmap. Scene::Window holds a reference to
this class and creates a new WindowPixmap whenever the pixmap needs to be
discarded. In addition it also keeps the old WindowPixmap around for the
case that creating the new pixmap fails. The compositor can in that case
use the previous pixmap which reduces possible flickering. Also this
referencing can be used to improve transition effects like the maximize
windows effect which would benefit from starting with the old pixmap.
For XRender and OpenGL a dedicated sub-class of the WindowPixmap is
created which provides the additional mapping to an XRender picture and
OpenGL texture respectively.

Reimplement performPaint() in SceneOpenGL1Window and SceneOpenGL2Window.
The roles between begin/endRenderWindow() and performPaint() are now
reversed; performPaint() contains the specialized code while begin/
endRenderWindow() contains the shared code.
This reduces the state churn in the OpenGL2 backend from the repeated
calls to prepare/restoreStates().
Use two textures per window instead of four, storing the left and
right borders in the first texture, and the top and bottom borders
in the second.
This makes it possible to render the whole decoration with only two
calls to glDrawArrays(). It also reduces the number of texture
allocations while resizing a window.
Remove support for OpenGL compositing without using a composite
overlay window. With this change kwin now also requires a
double-buffered framebuffer configuration.
Ownership of decoration textures is moved from SceneOpenGL::Window to
OpenGLPaintRedirector. The PaintRedirector is responsible for updating
the textures whenever they change. For this GLTexture is extended by an
update(QImage, QPoint) method which uses glTexSubImage2D to update only
the changed parts.
The big advantage compared to before is that if e.g. only a button is
animated only the button part is updated instead of the complete deco
part.

Add an option to kcmcompositing in the 'Advanced' tab, to enable or
disable color correction. It is specified that it's experimental and it
needs Kolor Manager.
Before painting for a particular screen, ColorCorrection::setupForOutput
should be called.
A screen property is added for WindowPaintData.
In kwinglutils, The fragment shaders are intercepted before being
compiled and they get a couple of lines of code inserted in order to do
the color correction. This happens only when color correction is enabled, of
course.
For D-Bus communication with KolorServer, everything is async.
The implementation basically manages a set of color lookup tables for
different outputs and for different window regions. These are taken via

A decoration can provide the AbilityAnnounceAlphaChannel in addition to
AbilityUsesAlphaChannel. If this ability is provided the decoration can
enable/disable the use of the alpha channel through setAlphaEnabled().
The base idea behind this mechanism is to be able to tell the compositor
that currently alpha is not needed. An example is the maximized state in
which the decoration is fully opaque so that there is no need to use the
translucency code path which would render all windows behind the deco.
In addition also the blur effect honors this setting so that behind a
known opaque decoration no blurring is performed.
Oxygen is adjusted to disable translucency in maximized state and Aurorae
is adjusted to allow themes to enable/disable translucency. For Plastik
translucency and with that also blurring is disabled.

If the build option is enabled KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_1 is passed as a compile
flag when build against OpenGL.
This compile flag is meant to replace the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGLES. So far code
has been ifdefed for special behavior of OpenGL ES 2.0 and to remove
fixed functionality calls which are not available in OpenGL ES 2.0.
With this build flag the fixed functionality calls which are only used in
the OpenGL1 Compositor can be removed and keeping the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGLES
for the real differences between OpenGL 2.x and OpenGL ES 2.0.
E.g. a call like glColor4f should be in an
glColor4f(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
while a call like glPolygonMode should be in an
glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE);
Building for OpenGL ES 2.0 of course implies that KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_1 is
not defined.
The CompositingType enum turns into flags and two new values are
introduced: OpenGL1Compositing and OpenGL2Compositing.
Those new values are or-ed to OpenGLCompositing so that a simple check
for the flag OpenGLCompositing works in case of one of those two new
values. To make the generic check for OpenGL compositing easier a method
in EffectsHandler is introduced to just check for this.
The scenes now return either OpenGL1Compositing or OpenGL2Compositing
depending on which Scene implementation. None returns OpenGLCompositing.
Results in cleaner changes.

SceneOpenGL turns into an abstract class with two concrete subclasses:
* SceneOpenGL1
* SceneOpenGL2
It provides a factory method which first creates either the GLX or EGL
backend which is passed to a static supported() method in the concrete
sub classes. These method can test whether the backend is sufficient to
be used for the OpenGL version in question. E.g. the OpenGL 2 scene
checks whether the context is direct.
The actual rendering is moved into the subclasses with specific OpenGL 1
and OpenGL 2 code. This should make the code more readable and requires
less checks whether a Shader is bound. This is now known through the
Scene: the OpenGL1 scene will never have a shader bound, the OpenGL2 scene
will always have a shader bound.
To make this more reliable the ShaderManager is extended by a disable
method used by SceneOpenGL1 to ensure that the ShaderManager will never
be used. This also obsoletes the need to read the KWin configuration
whether legacy GL is enabled. The check is moved into the supported
method of the OpenGL2 scene.
REVIEW: 106357
The code was basically copy'n'pasted to handle both Client and Deleted
requiring to cast the Toplevel to both Client and Deleted to test whether
it is one of those.
This is now changed from runtime to compile time polymorphism. A
templated method is used to start the rendering process for the decos.
This on the one hand simplifies the code and on the other does not
require any dynamic casts any more as we use the available check on
Toplevel whether it is a Client or Deleted.
The Window implementation performed many checks whether the rendering
uses the OpenGL 1 or OpenGL 2 code path and there were quite a few
cludges around to make this work.
So instead of many if-else blocks the specific code has now been moved
into a specific sub class and calls to pure virtual method in the base
class are used to trigger this behavior. Although that adds some overhead
in a rather hot code path it should be better than the many chained
method calls used before to handle OpenGL 1 and 2.
It also makes the code a little bit more readable as all the complete
OpenGL 1 implementation is now in one block ifdefed for OpenGL ES.
The handling for creating and managing the OpenGL context is
split out of the SceneOpenGL into the abstract OpenGLBackend
and it's two subclasses GlxBackend and EglOnXBackend.
The backends take care of creating the OpenGL context on the
windowing system, e.g. on glx an OpenGL context on the overlay
window is created and in the egl case an EGL context is created.
This means that the SceneOpenGL itself does not have to care
about the specific underlying infrastructure.
Furthermore the backend provides the Textures for the specific
texture from pixmap operations. For that in each of the backend
files an additional subclass of the TexturePrivate is defined.
These subclasses hold the EglImage and GLXPixmap respectively.
The backend is able to create such a private texture and for
that the ctor of the Texture is changed to take the backend as
a parameter and the Scene provides a factory method for
creating Textures. To make this work inside Window the Textures
are now hold as pointers which seems a better choice anyway as
to the member functions pointers are passed.
The Scene has always been created and destroyed inside what is
now the split out compositor. Which means it is actually owned
by the Compositor. The static pointer has never been needed
inside KWin core. Access to the Scene is not required for the
Window Manager. The only real usage is in the EffectsHandlerImpl
and in utils.h to provide a convenient way to figure out whether
compositing is currently active (scene != NULL).
The EffectsHandlerImpl gets also created by the Compositor after
the Scene is created and gets deleted just before the Scene gets
deleted. This allows to inject the Scene into the EffectsHandlerImpl
to resolve the static access in this class.
The convenient way to access the compositing() in utils.h had
to go. To provide the same feature the Compositor provides a
hasScene() access which has the same behavior as the old method.
In order to keep the code changes small in Workspace and Toplevel
a new method compositing() is defined which properly resolves
the state. A disadvantage is that this can no longer be inlined
and consists of several method calls and pointer checks.
The implementation consists of a class in libkwineffects.
There are some slight modifications in the compositor. Regions for
different outputs are drawn at different times.
Currently only per output color correction is implemented. However, the
grounds are prepared for implementing per window color correction
easily.
The ColorCorrection class needs to communicate via D-Bus with a KDED
module, KolorServer, which is a part of KolorManager.
The only visible part for the user consists of a check box in the
advanced tab for the compositing KCM.
The actual correction is done by injecting a piece of code in the
fragment shader, code that does a 3D lookup into a special color lookup
texture. The data for these textures is obtained from KolorServer. All
D-Bus calls are async.
This patch changes the behavior of strictly bound textures such that
they are only updated if the corresponding window has been damaged.
Additionally GLTexture now keeps track of the current filter and
wrapmode setting.

There seems to be a problem with nouveau GLES if you want to create an

side effect of this is that it also avoids the overhead of recreating
the texture for every damaged window.

Due to changes in build system we have always either OpenGL or OpenGL ES.
This allows to remove the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_COMPOSITING define. In the

future to build also an XRender only effect system.
This commit just makes the declaration of windowClosed() in Class Scene be a Q_SLOT.
The inheriting classes SceneOpenGL and SceneXRender are updated as well.
The method windowGeometryShapeChanged() from the class Scene is now a slot. It is now connected to the signal geometryShapeChanged() which is sent from Toplevel instances Client and Unmanaged.
All direct method calls were deleted.
The method windowOpacityChanged is now a protected slot in class Scene. The implementations in the subclasses SceneOpenGL and SceneXRender are the same. The slots are connected to the singal opacityChanged() from Toplevel. The connection is done in the method windowAdded() in both SceneOpenGL and SceneXRender.
The class Scene now inherits from QObject and has the Q_OBJECT macro. The inheriting classes SceneOpenGL and SceneXRender are provided with the Q_OBJECT macro. Now it is possible to use signals and slots and replace direct method calls.
Copies the shadow parts into one image and creates a GLTexture
from the image, so that we can render the complete shadow with
just one texture and one painting pass.
Should remove most of the overhead involved when rendering the new Shadows.
As a side effect this should fix missing shadows with non-NPOT GPUs and
a rendering glitch reported with NVIDIA.

With raster a QPixmap is no longer a XPixmap which fails all code
which assumes that an QPixmap is an XPixmap. Depending on were in
the codebase we either convert such pixmaps to images (OpenGL) or
create a XPixmap and use QPixmap::fromX11Pixmap to get a "real"
pixmap.
It is possible that there are more code pathes were we would need
a XPixmap. Currently tested is basic functionality of no-compositing,
XRender compositing, OpenGl/GLX and OpenGL ES/EGL compositing.
For OpenGL compositing raster might result in performance improvements,
for XRender it is possible that there are regressions when using raster.
By default KWin uses whatever is the default of the system, so we just
no longer enforce native.
Of course it is a bad idea to use graphicssystem OpenGL. As that
is broken anyways in Qt, we do not check for it.

The current implementation includes a new Shadow class and Toplevel
holds a pointer to an instance of this class. The Shadow class reads
the data from the X11 Property. There is one extended class located
in SceneOpenGL to render the shadow.
Compositor is adjusted to include the shadow region into the painting
passes.
Implementation for XRender still missing and Shadow needs to respond
to size changes of the Toplevel to update cached shadow region and
WindowQuads.
Our primary target is Texture From Pixmap and it is supported
by all important drivers nowadays. If a driver is not able to
support TFP using OpenGL at all is probably no good idea and
XRender is more suited.
A color can be specified to render the geometry of the VBO.
For legacy painting glColor is used, for shader a uniform is set.
In order to allow rendering without texcoords, it is possible to pass
a null pointer as texcoords.
Shader added to scene which just renders a colored geometry without texturing.
Adds a shader to render an untransformed scene. renderGLGeometry is not used any more and replaced by generated triangles stored in a GLVertexBuffer.
The GLVertexBuffer has a new attribute to decide whether a core profile compatible rendering has to be performed.
Currently windows and EffectFrames can make use of the new shader.
The shader contains a debug mode which colours all rendered fragments in green. It is currently enabled in scene_opengl.
Rendering transformed geometries (without shader) is currently broken.
