If we leave xwayland in weston's process group, it can receive
signals from the controlling TTY intended for weston.
The easiest way to see this is to launch weston under gdb, start an
X client, and hit ctrl-c in the gdb session. The Xwayland server
will also catch the SIGINT, and the X client will be disconnected.
Instead, let's call setsid() when launching Xwayland, like we do
for launched clients.

[common equivalent of 77cf8cb006 in Xwayland from Pekka Paalanen; its
commit message follows]
Between fork() and exec() in the child process it is only safe to use
async-signal-safe functions. weston_log() definitely is not one, it
allocates memory and does whatnot.
weston_log() is also inappropriate for other reasons: the child process
has its own stream buffers and flight-recorder. No-one looks into the
child process' flight recorder, so messages would be lost there. The
logging machinery might also attempt to write into debug streams,
meaning both parent and child could be writing simultaneously.
It seems that the best we can do is to pre-bake an error message and
only write() it out if exec() fails. There is no mention that even
strerror_r() might be safe to call, so we don't.

is not listed in signal-safety(7) manual.
Therefore we must prepare the fd argument strings before fork(). That is
only possible if we also do not dup() fd in the child process. Hence we
remove the close-on-exec flag instead in the child process which has
copies of the parent's file descriptors. Fortunately fcntl() is safe.
struct fdstr is helping to reduce code clutter a bit.
Additionally, if fork() fails, we now clean up the fds we created.

Doing any kind of memory allocation calls between fork() and exec() in

The problem is triggered by configuring a bad path to Xwayland in
weston.ini, which causes exec() to fail. The fork() succeeded though,
which means the weston_process was already on the watch list, and the
watch can be handled, making sigchl_handler() leave the link
uninitialized.
Making sure the link remains removable fixes this.

This adds an option to program basic display color characteristics from
weston.ini. In the future there will be a way to set this information
from EDID, but because EDID is unreliable that will probably not be the
default. An ICC profile will likely override most or all of this. The
main reason to add this option is to be able to characterise HDR
monitors.
An 'output' section can have a key 'color_characteristics' (string)
set to a name. The name refers to any 'color_characteristics' section
with 'name' set to the same string.
The 'name' key of a 'color_characteristics' section cannot contain a
colon ':'. Names with colon in 'output' section key
'color_characteristics' value are reserved for future use, e.g. to
indicate that the metadata is to be taken from EDID instead of a
weston.ini section.

When we launch clients they currently stay in the same session as
weston, and share its controlling terminal. This means hitting ctrl-c
in weston's controlling terminal will send SIGINT to the clients as
well. It also means SIGHUP will be propagated to our launched clients
if weston's controlling terminal is closed.
While generally not harmful, this behaviour is not beneficial, and
is present by default and not by design.
Problems arise when launching weston in a debugger, as a ctrl-c sent to
the debugger will be propagated not only to the debugger, but all the child
processes sharing weston's session. This results in weston-desktop-shell
being killed by the ctrl-c that was intended to stop weston for debugging.
If weston-desktop-shell is killed within 30 second of startup, it will
result weston performing a clean shutdown. This clean shutdown can
make debugging a little too surprising.
Ostensibly, clients launched via weston_client_launch will be wayland
clients that terminate cleanly on their own if weston is killed, so
there should be no need for them to remain in weston's session to
catch ctrl-c from its controlling terminal. Nor should they need a
controlling terminal for their general operation.
Use setsid() to move them to their own session, devoid of controlling
terminal, to make using a debugger a little less confusing in some
cases.

signalfd interacts badly with gdb's signal trapping - when hitting
ctrl-c in a debugger attached to weston, weston will receive the
signal. This results in weston exiting cleanly when the intent
was to use gdb to interfere with its operation.
Trapping SIGINT was introduced in commit 50dc6989 which ensured we
would call wl_display_terminate() on SIGINT or SIGTERM to clean
up our socket.
Killing weston with SIGINT is quite common for several developers,
so it's important to preserve this clean shutdown behaviour, so
we can't naively stop trapping SIGINT entirely.
Instead, use the sigaction() function to trap SIGINT, and have
the SIGINT handler send weston SIGUSR2 (SIGUSR1 is already
used by xwayland). SIGUSR2 can be trapped in the proper wayland
way via wl_event_loop_add_signal(). This way we can properly
break our event loop and clean up on SIGINT, but we can also
have gdb intercept SIGINT.
There are other ways around this, but I'm hoping this one allows
people to continue using ctrl-c to stop weston, and doesn't
require additional project specific gdb knowledge.

We've been trapping SIGQUIT for a "clean shutdown" since commit 3cad436a
However, sources such as:
http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Termination-Signals.html
indicate we probably shouldn't be trapping it at all, as the intent of
SIGQUIT is to leave a core file and debug artifacts from the run.
We should perform the minimal amount of clean up to ensure the system isn't
left in an unusable state - but these days that's performed by other
software such as logind.

Fbdev backend was deprecated in the Weston 10.0.0 release with
6338dbd581. Before that, I suggested
already in 2019 to remove it, but it was too soon then. Now it seems the
final voices asking for fbdev to be kept have been satisfied, see the
linked issue.
Fbdev-backend uses a kernel graphics UAPI (fbdev) which is sub-par for a
Wayland compositor: you cannot do GPU accelerated graphics in any
reasonable way, no hotplug support, multi-output support is tedious, and
so on. Most importantly, Linux has deprecated fbdev a long time ago due
to the UAPI fitting modern systems and use cases very poorly, but cannot
get rid of it if any users remain. Let's do here what we can to reduce
fbdev usage.
I am doing color management related additions to libweston which require
adding checks to every backend. One backend less is less churn to write
and review.
Libweston major version has already been bumped to 11, so the next
release will be Weston 11, without fbdev. enum weston_compositor_backend
entries change their numerical values.
