For the sample clients we introduce xmalloc() to simplify OOM-handling.
This patch only converts a few callsites, but this will be our strategy
going forward.
A wayland compositor doesn't provide a mechanism for buffer sharing between
clients. Under X, one client can render to a Pixmap and another can use it
as a source in a subsequent drawing operations. Wayland doesn't have a
mechanims to share Pixmaps or textures between clients like that, but it's
possible for one client to act as a nested compositor to another client.
This less work than it sounds, since the nested compositor won't have to
provide input devices or even any kind of shell extension. The nested
compositor and its client can be very tightly coupled and have very specific
expectations of what the other process should provide.
In this example, nested.c is a toytoolkit application that uses cairo-gl
for rendering and forks and execs nested-client.c. As it execs the client,
it passes it one end of a socketpair that will be the clients connection
to the nested compositor. The nested compositor doesn't even create a
listening socket.
The client is a minimal GLES2 application, which just renders a spinning
triangle in its frame callback.
Add a demo program with:
- a main surface (green)
- a Cairo-image sub-surface (red)
- a raw GLESv2 widget (triangle)
Sub-surface input region is set empty to avoid problems in toytoolkit.
If Cairo links to libGL, then we will end up with also libGLESv2 linked
to subsurfaces program, and both libs getting really used, which leads
to disaster.
Do not build subsurfaces demo, if Cairo links to libGL and cairo-egl is
usable.
The GL rendering loop is not tied to the toytoolkit or the widget, but
runs directly from its own frame callback. Therefore it runs
independent of the rest of the application. This also relies on one of
two things:
- eglSwapInterval(0) is implemented, and therefore eglSwapBuffers never
blocks indefinitely, or
- toytoolkit has a workaround, that guarantees that eglSwapBuffers will
return soon, when we force a repaint on resize.
Otherwise the demo will deadlock.
The code is separated into three sections:
1. The library component, using only EGL, GLESv2, and libwayland-client
APIs, and not aware of any toolkit details of the parent application.
This runs independently until the parent application tells otherwise.
2. The glue code: a toytoolkit application widget, who has its own
rendering machinery.
3. The application written in toytoolkit.
This patch also adds new toytoolkit interfaces:
- widget_get_wl_surface()
- widget_get_last_time()
- widget_input_region_add()
Toytoolkit applications have not had a possibility to change the input
region. The frame widget (decorations) set the input region on its own
when used, otherwise the default input region of everything has been
used. If a window does not have a frame widget, it can now use
widget_input_region_add() to set a custom input region.
These are not window methods, because a widget may lie on a different
wl_surface (sub-surface) than the window.
Changes in v3:
- replace set_commit_mode with set_sync and set_desync

The new application API window_add_subsurface() will create a plain
widget that is on a new sub-surface.
The sub-surface position is taken from the surface's root widget
allocation. This way widget allocations are always in the main surface
(i.e. window) coordinates. However, Cairo drawing coordinates will now
be different to widget coordinates for sub-surfaces. Cairo coordinates
are fixed by applying a translation in widget_cairo_create(), so that
widget drawing code can simply use the widget allocation as before.
Sub-surfaces are hooked up into resize, window flush, redraw, and
find_widget. Window maintains a list of sub-surfaces in top-first order.
Add a client settable default commit mode, and toggle the mode when
resizing to guarantee in-sync updates of a window and its sub-surfaces.

Add protocol for sub-surfaces, wl_subcompositor as the global interface,
and wl_subsurface as the per-surface interface extension.
This patch is meant to be reverted, once sub-surfaces are moved into
Wayland core.
Changes in v2:
- Rewrite wl_subcompositor.get_subsurface description, and move mapping
and commit details into wl_subsurface description. Check the wording
in wl_subsurface.set_position description.
- Add wl_subsurface.set_commit_mode request, and document it, with the
commit_mode enum. Add bad_value error code for wl_subsurface.
- Moved the protocol into Weston repository so we can land it upstream
sooner for public exposure. It is to be moved into Wayland core later.
- Add destroy requests to both wl_subcompositor and wl_subsurface, and
document them. Experience has showed, that interfaces should always
have a destructor unless there is a good and future-proof reason to not
have it.
Changes in v3:
- Specify, that wl_subsurface will become inert, if the corresponding
wl_surface is destroyed, instead of requiring a certain destruction
order.
- Replaced wl_subsurface.set_commit_mode with wl_subsurface.set_sync and
wl_subsurface.set_desync. Parent-cached commit mode is now called
synchronized, and independent mode is desynchronized. Removed
commit_mode enum, and bad_value error.
- Added support for nested sub-surfaces.

This introduces the function widget_cairo_create().
Instead of directly referencing surface->cairo_surface, use the function
widget_cairo_create(), which will create the cairo_surface as necessary,
and just returns a Cairo drawing context. Also fix window_get_surface()
similarly.
Now we can go through idle_redraw() without always creating Cairo
surfaces and committing them. This will be useful with sub-surfaces,
where repainting one sub-surface does not need to force the repaint of
all surfaces of a window.

These are surface specifics, since buffers are surface specific.
SURFACE_HINT_RESIZE is moved together to the other SURFACE_* flags, so
that surface_create_surface() would not need two flags arguments.
struct toysurface::prepare vfunc checks for SURFACE_HINT_RESIZE, and
egl_window_surface_create() and shm_surface_create() check for the
non-HINT flags.

In a few cases, we set a motion handler just to be able to set a fixed
cursor. This adds a default cursor helper that can be used in those cases.
In case of the 'transformed' test case, we also avoid a brief flicker
of the pointer cursor, which is set on enter when the move grab is lifted.
When a window's buffer transformation is set, its buffers are
reallocated with the appropriate size (i.e., with width and height
swapped in case of 90 or 270 degree rotation).
To reproduce, launch the terminal, open a second window using Ctrl-Shift-N,
go back to the first window, and press Ctrl-D. The terminal's master FD gets
events even after being closed, causing terminal_destroy to be called twice
on the same object.
To fix this, I'm adding a function to stop watching an FD.
Send state and modifier from the demo keyboard with the keysym event and
take them into account in the editor example.
Add some helper functions to write and read a modifiers_map array.

I do not think these are meant to be called by the applications
directly. Applications certainly do not have to call them.

We don't gain anything from taking a wl_shell_surface in
desktop_surface.set_background, except making wl_shell_surface
gratuitously dependent on wl_shell. In shell.c we can also handle
backgrounds in their own background_configure function which simplifies
the mapping and placement logic.
Since the introduction of pointer.set_cursor(), it is possible for a
client to set the surface containing the pointer image and get frame
callbacks on it thus allowing a clear implementation of animated
cursors.
This also makes the busy cursor hack of using frame callbacks on the
busy surface unnecessary.
Instead of using a uint32_t for state everywhere (except on the wire,
where that's still the call signature), use the new
wl_keyboard_key_state enum, and explicit comparisons.

Here we create a new client/compositor interface in weston to allow
clients to report their x/y cursor position to the compositor. These
values are then used to center the zoom area on this point. This
is useful for everyone, especially people who are visually impaired.
If cairo-gl is used, display_create_surface() will create an
wl_egl_window for each surface and this will result in errors if this
surface is used as a source. Also, one can't get a wl_buffer for such
a surface wich led to crashes when trying to do so for the drag icon.
This patch works around both problems by forcing the item and drag icon
surfaces to use shm.
wl_input_device has been both renamed and split. wl_seat is now a
virtual object representing a group of logically related input devices
with related focus.
It now only generates one event: to let clients know that it has new
capabilities. It takes requests which hand back objects for the
wl_pointer, wl_keyboard and wl_touch interfaces it exposes which all
provide the old input interface, just under different names.
This commit tracks these changes in weston and the clients, as well as
similar renames (e.g. weston_input_device -> weston_seat). Some other
changes were necessary, e.g. renaming the name for the visible mouse
sprite from 'pointer' to 'cursor' so as to not conflict.
For simplicity, every seat is always exposed with all three interfaces,
although this will change as time goes on.
