So far we had a composition setup within kwinrc and kscreen. This
produces flickering sometime and makes the state a bit more flimsy.
This patch changes the kwin's behaviour to use the files produced by
kscreen which are anyways available down the line.
THis simplifies our behaviour down to just one format that we write to
and feed from. This also allows us to leverage it further by using this
format for default setups (which consist in the right file in
~/.local/share/kscreen).
One of the scene redesign goals is to make wayland surface items
re-usable. So we have the same rendering path for drag-and-drop icons,
software cursors, and window surfaces.
The biggest issue at the moment is that window pixmaps are tightly
coupled with scene windows.
This change de-couples window pixmaps from scene windows. In order to
achieve that, some architecture changes were made.
The WindowPixmap class was replaced with the SurfacePixmap class. A
surface pixmap is created by a surface item.
Under the hood, a SurfacePixmap will create a PlatformSurfaceTexture
object, which contains all the information necessary for the renderer.
The SceneOpenGLTexture class was removed. However, the GLX and the EGL
on X11 backends still mess with GLTexture's internals.
As is, kwin with the drm backend results in the most pleasant user
experience on Wayland. Given that and the fbdev being about to be
dropped, making libdrm a required dependency seems a reasonable decision.
This feature was implemented in commit a66eb1a5b9 earlier
Double tap wake up is not a feature to be implemented at compositor
level but rather at the hardware/kernel level. Double tap timer here
means when screen is turned off, libinput will continue to poll the
touchscreen for new events.
double-tap-to-wakeup is generally interrupt at driver/hardware level
which have ability to wake system up even from the sleep.
Provide a option to disable the double tap timer on kwin side for
devices which makes use of suspend since when in suspend kwin can not
wake device up, and that provides confusing user experience.
When a GPU has no outputs attached we need to release all resources and
close the fd to allow the driver to completely power down the GPU. This
is also required to allow the driver to be unloaded for VFIO.
Platform::prepareShutdown() was introduced to work around the issue
where the platform accesses destroyed OutputDeviceInterface objects.
Since we no longer query OutputDeviceInterface for output info, the
Platform::prepareShutdown() function can be dropped.
When we release the buffers that also removes the drm fbs.
This causes failing atomic commits that the atomic code
doesn't (yet) handle correctly, the result is a black
screen when compositing is restarted.
Most wayland-native apps provide buffers that aren't suitable
for direct scanout; the message usually only spams the log full
without proper reason or useful information
In the few cases where the framebuffer is needed, we'd get problems
because ioctl(KWIN_FB_NO_VSYNC) fails.
This removes the code entirely to just use a timer to refresh.
BUG: 436053
QPainter::setWindow() doesn't work as we expect if the device pixel
ratio of the paint device is less than 1, for example 0.5 or 0.75.
QPainter only allows the effective device pixel ratios that are greater
than or equal to 1. This restriction probably has to be lifted.
For the time being, this change introduces a helper function that can be
used to determine the scale factor by which QPainter::window() must be
multiplied.
BUG: 432766
Instead of deleting all blob properties without a valid
blob check for the blob existing before using it. This is
necessary because some properties are needed even without
currently valid blobs.
BUG: 435786
While the session is inactive, the drm master permissions are revoked.
Therefore, we cannot perform things such as modesetting, etc. It also
makes no sense to create or destroy DrmOutput objects.
