Most compositors send the wl_data_offer.source_actions event before the
wl_data_device.enter event, i.e. after creation of the data offer. This
contradicts to the wayland spec.
On the other hand, it's reasonable to send all the information useful to
the client before the enter event, rather than send mime types before the
enter event and source actions (that don't depend on drop target) after
the enter event.
On the client side, toolkits such as Qt and GTK already expect to see the
source actions before receiving the enter event.
Given all of that, this change adjusts the spec to match the behavior
observed in the compositors in the wild.

Attaching a buffer with interface version 5 requires clients to pass
zero to x and y but it still affects the pending surface state.
Attaching a buffer after a request to offset therefore sets the pending
x and y to zero. The intent of version 5 was to allow exactly this
sequence of requests to work so let's just make sure the protocol
actually spells it out.

This event adds the physical direction of the axis motion, relative to the
axis event we get. Right now, when natural scrolling is enabled things like
virtual volume sliders move the wrong way round.
By adding the axis motion direction, we can have toolkits swap the scroll
direction for applicable widgets, getting the right behavior on all widgets.

Same as the new wl_surface.preferred_buffer_scale event but for
transform.
No version bump needed since the previous commit did that.
Signed-off-by: Simon Ser <contact@emersion.fr>
Right now, clients need to bind to wl_output globals, listen to wl_output.scale,
listen to wl_surface.enter/leave, pick the highest scale factor.
This is an issue because it breaks Wayland's "policy, not mechanism" motto.
Clients take the decision of which scale to use depending on the outputs they're
on, compositors have no say in this (apart from faking output events, which
isn't great).
This commit introduces a new wl_surface.preferred_buffer_scale event to allow
compositors to directly indicate the preferred scale factor for each surface.
This unlocks features which require dynamically changing the scale such as:
- Accessibility features such as screen magnifier
- In a VR environment, render surfaces close to the eye at a higher scale
- HiDPI screenshots on LoDPI screens

This is inspired from xdg-output-unstable-v1. This allows clients to
get the name and description without having to use xdg_output. This
should eventually allow us to restrict xdg_output to clients like
Xwayland.
The name is a unique non-persistent user-friendly string that can be
used to refer to an output. This can be used by Wayland clients to
refer to a specific wl_output (e.g. across processes or in CLI
arguments).
The description is a non-unique user-friendly string that can be
displayed to the user.

This is meant to address the issue where the call to 'wl_surface.attach'
is done by e.g. Vulkan, meaning applications cannot affect the values of
the offset passed as the x and y arguments.
The lack of ability to pass these is problematic when using the Vulkan
for e.g. drawing DND surfaces, as the buffer offset is used to implement
the drag icon hotspots.

Allow wl_buffer objects to be destroyed without having to wait for
wl_buffer.release if the underlying storage isn't going to be
re-used.
The main motivation for this is to avoid glitches when a client is
torn down. When a client disconnects, all of its objects are destroyed
in arbitrary order. However some compositors will still need to
access the destroyed buffer's underlying storage afterwards, e.g. for
visual effects (fade-out) or for atomic layout updates (wait for other
clients to commit a new buffer before hiding the buffer).
It's still incorrect for clients to destroy a wl_buffer and mutate
the underlying storage without waiting for wl_buffer.release.

The current wl_output.mode event has several issues when used to advertise
modes that aren't current:
- It's not possible to remove some modes. This is an issue for virtual
outputs and when the kernel prunes some modes because of link limitations.
- wl_output.mode fails to carry metadata such as aspect ratio, which results
in duplicated or missing modes.
- It's not clear, given the current set of protocols, how non-current modes
are useful to clients. Xwayland ignores non-current modes.
GNOME and wlroots already only advertise the current mode because of these
issues.
If a protocol needs the clients to know about all available modes, it should
advertise these modes itself instead of relying on wl_output.mode.

Some clients rely on wl_surface.enter/leave to start/stop their rendering
loop.
There are cases where this doesn't work:
- Some compositors don't send wl_surface.leave when a toplevel is hidden.
For instance Sway doesn't send this event when a toplevel is on an inactive
workspace (but doesn't send wl_surface.frame events).
- Some compositors might still want applications to continue to render even if
away from outputs. For instance a compositor that allows to screen record
individual toplevels might not send a wl_surface.enter event for hidden
toplevels.

Explicitly say that destroying a wl_data_source previously used in a
wl_data_device::start_drag request will cancel the DND session. This
is currently the only way to do it from client side (besides those
"indirect" ones already documented) and all compositors work like that
but it is not clear spec-wise it is the expected behaviour.

Explain that wl_keyboard.key yields platform-specific key codes.
Some compositors use Linux key codes (defined in the
linux/input-event-codes.h header file, e.g. KEY_ESC), however
clients should not assume that this is always the case. The only
reliable way for clients to interpret key codes is to feed them
into a keyboard mapping.

Signed-off-by: Kirill Chibisov <contact@kchibisov.com>
Consider that we set the modifier for the modifier key as well, and that
you have the option to change your layout when both shifts pressed. This
realized by making the shift keys produce 'Group_switch' when you press
the shift key and the shift modifier is already active. So sending modifier
before the key event will result in 'Group_switch' each time you press
shift.
That being said, the order of modifiers should be updated after the
key/enter event, so it'll only affect future keypresses, not the current one.

Signed-off-by: Simon Ser <contact@emersion.fr>
This prevents mismatches and missing formats between wl_shm.formats and
drm_fourcc.h.
The script collects DRM_FORMAT_* constants from drm_fourcc.h, compares the list
with the current wayland.xml entries (checking for any mismatch) and then
appends missing entries to wayland.xml.
Enum values are obtained by executing a generated C file which prints the
constants. There is no other reliable way to get these values as they are
defined via various macros.
There is no widespread Python library able to parse an XML file and format it
with all whitespace preserved. For this reason, we don't use an XML library to
create the new XML elements. Instead, we keep track of the line number of the
last wl_shm.format enum entry and add new entries right after. To be able to
read the line number of an element, we use lxml (the standard library doesn't
retain line number information).
