Our layer shell implementation assigns every layer surface to an output on creation. It tracks this output using the output field on the underlying wlr_layer_surface_v1 structure. As such, much of the existing code assumes that output is always non-NULL and omits NULL checks accordingly. However, there are currently two cases where we destroy a sway_layer_surface and output is NULL. The first is when we can't find an output to assign the surface to and destroy it immediately after creation. The second is when we destroy a surface in response to its output getting destroyed, as we set output to NULL in handle_output_destroy() before we call wlr_layer_surface_v1_destroy(), which is what calls the appropriate unmap and destroy callbacks. The former case doesn't cause any problems, since we haven't even allocated a sway_layer_surface at that point or registered any callbacks. The latter case, however, currently triggers a crash (#6120) if a popup is visible, since our popup_handle_unmap() implementation can't handle a NULL output. To fix this issue, keep output set until right before we free the sway_layer_surface. All we need to do is remove some of the cleanup logic from handle_output_destroy(), since as of commit |

Installation
From Packages
Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours.
Compiling from Source
Check out this wiki page if you want to build the HEAD of sway and wlroots for testing or development.
Install dependencies:
- meson *
- wlroots
- wayland
- wayland-protocols *
- pcre
- json-c
- pango
- cairo
- gdk-pixbuf2 (optional: system tray)
- scdoc (optional: man pages) *
- git (optional: version info) *
* Compile-time dep
Run these commands:
meson build/
ninja -C build/
sudo ninja -C build/ install
On systems without logind nor seatd, you need to suid the sway binary:
sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway
Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.
Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config.
Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
