ScreenPaintData provides a way to transform the painted screen, e.g.
scale or translate. From API point of view, it's great. It allows
fullscreen effects to transform the workspace in various ways.
On the other hand, such effects end up fighting the default scene
painting algorithm. For example, just have a look at the slide effect!
With fullscreen effects, it's better to leave to them the decision how
the screen should be painted. For example, such approach is taken in
some wayland compositors, e.g. wayfire, and our qtquick effects already
operate in similar fashion.
Given that, strip the ScreenPaintData of all available transforms. The
main motivation behind this change is to improve encapsulation of item
painting code and simplify model-view-projection code in kwin. It will
also make the job of extracting item code for sharing purposes easier.
Anything in xcb_ structs are always in X local, all member variables
aside from buffers are in kwin local space.
This patch ignores a few paths that are not relevant on wayland.
The XRender backend has been removed, leaving most of KWinXRenderUtils unused.
The few features that are still used, notable `XRenderPicture` and pict format
are moved into the x11/common directory.

This makes KWin switch to in-tree copy of KWaylandServer codebase.
KWaylandServer namespace has been left as is. It will be addressed later
by renaming classes in order to fit in the KWin namespace.
Effect loading is already tested using integration tests, for example
the maximize test verifies that the maximize effect is loaded _and_ it
actually does something useful when a window is maximized or restored,
testScriptedEffectLoader only verifies that the effect is loaded, which
is less helpful than what integration tests provide us.
But perhaps the main problem with these tests is that they require us
building a mockverse around them. This litters code with ifdef
preprocessor directives and makes changing such code a living nightmare.
Another problem with these two tests is that they cannot use OpenGL
because it means mocking OpenGL, which we obviously not going to do.
With integration tests, it's not a problem.
The bottom line is that unit tests can be useful but they make life
notoriously difficult when it comes to testing components that depend on
other components.
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.
The main motivation behind this change is to prepare kwin for importing
kwayland-server code in libkwin.
As is, builtin effects are linked with libkwin. Some builtin effects
have wayland specific code. If we move wayland stuff in libkwin, there's
going to be a circular dependency between kwin4_effect_builtins and
libkwin targets.
This change intends to break that dependency by linking builtin effects
to kwin executable.
The main issue with that is that EffectLoader would need to discover the
effects indirectly. QStaticPlugin is used for that purpose.
Besides breaking the cyclic dependency, it makes builtin effects use the
same plugin infrastructure in libkwineffects that external effects use.
Metadata in src/effects/effect_builtins.cpp was converted in a list of
python dictionaries, which was fed to a python script that generated
main.cpp and metadata.json files.
With the LEDs enum being defined in kwinglobals.h, wayland_server.h
won't need to include keyboard_input.h, which is good for compilation
times and wayland_server.h will drag less stuff, e.g. QtWidgets (input.h
includes QAction)
Startup code in plasmashell was changed so xsetroot is not called
anymore, which is sort of fine.
Unfortunately (or not?), it exposed a bug in kwin. Cursor::x11Cursor()
only works in the standalone X11 session.
On Wayland, Cursor::x11Cursor() will return XCB_NONE which results in
seeing cross cursor when there should be arrow cursor.
This change moves xcb_cursor_t look up code from X11Cursor to the base
Cursor class. In hindsight, I would like to introduce a window manager
class where the xcb cursor and other x11 specific code can be moved in
the future for better encapsulation of platform-specific code.
CCBUG: 442539
Due to the screen edges test not being an integration test, it's very
hard to change output related code in libkwin. screens.cpp needs to have
a few ifdefs to successfully compile.
This change rewrites the screen edges test as an integration test in
order to allow us using other components of kwin in screens.cpp and
screenedge.cpp without ifdef guards.
It's not a one-to-one port.

BUG: 375518
Summary:
QScriptEngine is deprecated for years and suffers bitrot.
Plasma hit one super major bug with it in 5.11.0 and has now ported
away.
Main porting notes:
- creating low level functions no longer exists
The old global functions are exposed on the ScriptedEffect instance
and then the QJSValue wrappers of the globalObject are modified to
trampoline the methods at a wrapper level.
- We can then use QJSEngine to automatically do argument error checking
rather than unmarshalling a QJSValue manually which significantly
reduces a lot of code.
- We can't make FPX2 a native type, so these are QJSValue args and
unboxed there.
Long term I want overloads for animate that take int/QSize/QPoint which
are native JS types, but that might be an API break.
Test Plan:
Hopefully comprehensive unit test which passes
Tested fade/fadeDesktop manually.
It's a very invasive change, so I expect some things will be broke
please help test any JS effects.

Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
This logs to a tracefs filesystem which can be viewed in tools such as
gpuvis to see precise timings of activities in relation to other trace
markers in X or graphic drivers.
This patch is loosely based on D23114. Though modified with thread
safety, support for string building, and a RAII pattern for durations.
Ultimately that expanded it somewhat.
At the moment, the Screens class is convoluted with ifdefs because of
MockScreens.
The goal of this change is to reduce the number of usages of the
MockScreens class so it is possible to get rid of the ifdefs.
Summary:
As is KWin only had 1 Cursor which was a singleton. This made it impossible for
us to properly implement the tablet (as in drawing tablets) support and show where
we're drawing.
This patch makes it possible to have different Cursors in KWin, it makes all the
current code still follow the mouse but the tablet can still render a cursor.
Test Plan: Tests pass, been using it and works as well as before but with beautiful tablet cursors.

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.
Test Plan: Compiles, the test suite is still green.

We have lots of inconsistency at the moment in CMakeLists.txt files. Most
of it is due to kwin being a very old project. This change hopefully fixes
all of it.
Summary:
Represent outputs in the X11 session via AbstractOutput. For that we
move all Wayland specific parts of AbstractOutput into a new subclass
AbstractWaylandOutput and let the outputs of our Wayland backends inherit
from there.
This should allow us to get rid of the Screens class later on.

Summary:
The main reason for not having it as a mandatory dependency was that BSD
doesn't support it. But as I learned recently it is available on our CI
system. So BSDs have support now.
Even more it showed that the code doesn't compile if the dependency is
missing. And there's one thing I hate: broken build configuration
options.
So let's make UDEV and libinput a required dependency and get rid of the
problems.

Summary:
The initial state for user enabled is now read from config. In addition
a DBus interface is provided exporting this property. This allows
KScreen to determine whether automatic screen rotation is available and
whether the user has it enabled or not.
Furthermore KScreen can change the property and this gets stored into
the configuration. Thus KScreen can offer a user interface to
enable/disable automatic screen rotation as well as enabling/disabling
the manual rotation based on the current user settings.

Summary:
KWin was quite good in ensuring that you don't need to install by
passing paths to the tests. The new way is much nicer, so code is
adjusted for the new way. Also if we require a newer ECM in future we
need to support the new way.
No guarantee that the tests don't pick something up from the system env,
that needs more testing.

Summary:
The addition of the test infrastructure is motivated by the regressions
caused by adding mode switching and transformation support.
A contributing factor to these regression is the fact that the DRM
platform does not have any tests. It is difficult to test this code as
it needs to work with hardware, thus we cannot use the real DRM library.
Instead we need to use mocking.
This change sets up some first basic tests with the help of a mockDrm
library. In order to better test the code as units the Drm classes are
slightly refactored. Most importantly the dependency to DrmBackend is
removed wherever possible and replaced by a simple int fd which is mostly
the only element used by the classes.
This first test introduces basic testing of a DrmObject. It is intended
to extend this to at least also test DrmPlane as a central piece of our
Drm platform plugin. This will also extend the tests of DrmObject.

Summary:
This change introduces an OrientationSensor class which wraps a
QOrientationSensor. The OrientationSensor is hold by Screens and gets
enabled if Screens knows about an internal (e.g. LVDS) display which
supports rotation. In addition the OrientationSensor holds an KSni to
enable/disable the automatic rotation support.
The drm platform plugin is adjusted to make use of the OrientationSensor.
The API is defined in a way that this can also be implemented on other
platforms supporting rotation. Most important are hwcomposer and X11
standalone. The latter should be straight forward as rotation is provided
through XRandR. The former needs addition for rotation support first.
