Add some documentation about the DRM backend into its own man page, and
refer to it in weston(1).
Environment variable, that are reserved for backends, and currently used
only by the DRM backend, are moved to weston-drm page.
NOTE: This is a candidate for the stable branch

Rename print_egl_error_state() to gl_renderer_print_egl_error_state()
and exports it.
Remove the copy of that function from the rpi backend, and call
the exported function instead.

Backends may move surfaces to different planes, in which case damage is
generated in the primary plane. This damage is usually passed to the
renderer, but in some cases the backend may decide to not render
anything (that's the case when drm compositor scans out a client
buffer). In that case the damage on the primary plane would be
discarded, leading to artifacts later.
This patch makes the backend's responsibility to clear the damage on
the primary plane, so that unrendered damage is kept for as long as
necessary.
On the first frame with zoom activated, the spring used for animation
will have a current value of zero. The translation calculated with that
value will be invalid (not a number). Using this value later leads to
having an invalid output matrix, so nothing is composited in the first
zoomed frame.
This problem is most evident when a sprite plane is being used. In that
case, enabling the zoom will cause the surface to be moved back to the
primary plane, but because of the bug described above, this surface
would not actually be rendered causing a quick flicker.
If simple-egl is toggled fullscreen, the opqaue region is set for the surface
but never removed after exiting fullscreen. This patch resets the opaque region
to 0 if the surface is not fullscreen and -o was not passed. This fixes the
problem introduced sometime since d7f282b84e, when this was last fixed.
Nothing uses it to create EGL-surfaces outside of window.c. This makes
refactoring the EGL-based code easier, since we do not need to support
EGL-based Cairo surfaces without an associated struct window.

cairo_surface_t objects have a private set, either struct
shm_surface_data, or struct egl_window_surface_data. Use separate
private keys for each type to avoid mismatch.
This makes display_get_buffer_for_surface() safe, in that it won't
return garbage for an EGL-based cairo surface.

Struct surface_data was not really useful, and it definitely was not
used with EGL-based windows.
This also fixes a semantic mistake, where struct shm_surface_data was
put into cairo_surface_t private, but got out as struct surface_data
instead. Due to struct layout, however, this did not cause a real bug.

Change simple-shm to properly process the wl_buffer.release event, and
not reuse a buffer until it is released by the server, as specified in
the protocol.
In case the server has not released the buffer, but signals that it has
been shown (frame callback), allocate a second buffer. Simple-shm will
now automatically do double-buffering if needed.

Move fields current_buffer and buffer_damage out of weston_output into
gl_output_state, since they are actually specific to the renderer.
Also bring back the previous_damage field so that the screenshooter
can get the damage for the previous frame in a renderer independent
way.
disable_planes should only be incremented when zoom.active actually
toggles. Otherwise the counter will be incremented too many times,
and planes will no longer get used.

This moves the surface color state into gles2-renderer. To do this it
adds two new weston_renderer functions. create_surface to be able to
create per-surface renderer state, and surface_set_color to set the
color of a surface and changes it to a color surface.
This moves the EGLConfig, EGLContext and EGLDisplay fields into
gles2-renderer. It also moves EGLDisplay creation and EGLConfig
selection into gles2-renderer.
This introduces callbacks for output creation and destruction for the
gles2-renderer. This enables the gles2-renderer to have per-output
state. EGL surface creation is now done by the output_create callback
and the EGL surface is stored in the new per-output gles2-renderer
state. On the first output_create call, the gles2-renderer will setup
it's GL context. This is because EGL requires a EGL surface to be able
to use the GL context.
This makes drm_fb_get_from_bo() use drmModeAddFB2() if possible so that
drm_output_prepare_overlay_surface() can use this instead of keeping
track of the fbs and buffers itself.
Let the compositor generic code decide what to do when the buffer goes
away. We still have a valid reference do the bo, so we can still show
the client contents until something else triggers a repaint.
If the sprite is disabled and we're not enabling it on the next frame,
nothing is done in the vblank handler, so there's no need to ask for a
vblank event.
The old implementation didn't work because we set the minimum and maximum
sizes so that the WM can't resize us. That makes the fullscreen protocol
not work. Additionally we were requesting fullscreen after mapping, which
requires the more complicated (and potentially flickery) client message
approach.
Now we just set the _NET_WM_STATE before mapping and avoid setting
the size hints in case of fullscreen. That's all good, but the problem
is that we now have to wait for configure notify before we know
what size our output will be. For now we just block and pull events from
X until we get the size.
Ideally we would treat the map as an output hotplug event and just add the
output at that point, but we can't start up with no outputs present.
That may be worth fixing, but for now, the block-on-map is fine.
Dispmanx elements are like hardware overlays. Assign one weston_surface
to each overlay created, and the VideoCore will composite it on screen.
The maximum number of elements is configurable via the command line.
Specifying zero will disable the overlays (planes/elements) altogether,
and use only GLESv2 compositing.
You need an up-to-date Raspberry Pi firmware for:
- vc_dispmanx_resource_create(), that will also take stride. Otherwise
surfaces ending up in elements may show up as corrupted.
- off-line compositing support. The on-line compositing of elements
cannot handle too many elements. Look for the comments around
DEFAULT_MAX_PLANES in the code.
Elements must be double-buffered to avoid tearing. Therefore two buffers
(Dispmanx resources) are allocated for each element. A command line
option is added to allow single-buffering instead to save memory, with
the risk of tearing.
The page flip timer is replaced with the Dispmanx update completion
callback. The callback is executed in a separate thread, therefore a
pipe is set up to integrate properly with Weston core.
If not disabled, usually all surfaces are assigned into planes, and
nothing is composited in GLESv2. Planes do not support surface
transformations though, so compositing will automatically switch the
necessary surfaces to GLESv2 compositing as needed. Switching between
GLESv2 and elements may cause transient visual glitches and jerks.

Add a new backend for the Raspberry Pi.
This backend uses the DispmanX API to initialise the display, and create
an EGLSurface, so that GLESv2 rendering is shown on the "framebuffer".
No X server is involved. All compositing happens through GLESv2.
The created EGLSurface is specifically configured as buffer content
preserving, otherwise Weston wouuld show only the latest damage and
everything else was black. This may be sub-optimal, since we are not
alternating between two buffers, like the DRM backend is, and content
preserving may imply a fullscreen copy on each frame.
Page flips are not properly hooked up yet. The display update will
block, and we use a timer to call weston_output_finish_frame(), just
like the x11 backend does.
This backend handles the VT and tty just like the DRM backend does.
While VT switching works in theory, the display output seems to be
frozen while switched away from Weston. You can still switch back.
Seats and connectors cannot be explicitly specified, and multiple seats
are not expected.
Udev is used to find the input devices. Input devices are opened
directly, weston-launch is not supported at this time. You may need to
confirm that your pi user has access to input device nodes.
The Raspberry Pi backend is built by default. It can be build-tested
without the Raspberry Pi headers and libraries, because we provide stubs
in rpi-bcm-stubs.h, but such resulting binary is non-functional. If
using stubs, the backend is built but not installed.
VT and tty handling, and udev related code are pretty much copied from
the DRM backend, hence the copyrights. The rpi-bcm-stubs.h code is
copied from the headers on Raspberry Pi, including their copyright
notice, and modified.

When a surface is on a non-primary plane (overlay), we do not need to
keep the GL texture up-to-date, since we are not using it. Avoid calling
glTex(Sub)Image2D in that case, and accumulate the texture damage
separately.
This is especially useful for backends, that can put wl_shm buffers into
overlays.
The empty damage check has to be moved from surface_accumulate_damage()
into gles2_renderer_flush_damage(), because it really needs to check the
accumulated damage, not only the current damage. Otherwise, if a surface
migrates from a plane to the primary plane, and does not have new
damage, the texture would not be updated even for accumulated damage.

Add the concept of debug key bindings, that are bindings that activate
debug features in the compositor. The bindings are added to a list in
the compositor, but the triggering them is left to the shell.
On the shell side, a global debug key binding is added. When the user
presses mod-shift-space, the shell will invoke the debug bindings based
on the next key press.
This also converts the debug shortcuts for repaint debugging, fan
repaint debugging and the hide overlays shortcut in compositor-drm to
use the new infrastructure.
Add a headless backend and a noop renderer, mainly for testing
purposes. Although no rendering is performed with this backend,
this allow some of the code paths inside Weston and shm clients
to be tested without any windowing system or any need for drm
access.
