When the selected backend supports high-resolution scroll but the client
doesn't, we need to accumulate value120 deltas until we can notify a
discrete event.
In addition, add a expire time so accumulated deltas are reset after a
period of inactivity.
When the selected backend supports high-resolution scroll, wlroots will
emit the axis_value120 signal.
Add the required APIs so wlroots compositors can handle this new events
and the default handler implemetion.
For the moment, the default implementation does NOT handle clients that
don't support high-scroll resolution.
When the selected backend doesn't support high-resolution scroll,
clients requesting high-resolution events must be handled properly.
Upgrade the seat protocol to version 8 and change the defaul pointer
axis handler to support new clients.
Recevie the high-resolution scroll events from the libinput or Wayland
backends, abstracted as pointer signals, and re-emit them from the
cursor interface.
On newer versions of libinput, the event LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS has
been deprecated in favour of LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_WHEEL,
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_FINGER and
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_CONTINUOUS.
Where new events are provided by the backend, ignore
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS.
Add a project argument (LIBINPUT_HAS_SCROLL_VALUE120) to allow
building against old versions of libinput or, where high-resolution
scroll is available, support it.
Starting with Linux Kernel v5.0 two new axes are available for
mice that support high-resolution wheel scrolling: REL_WHEEL_HI_RES and
REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES.
Both axes send data in fractions of 120 where each multiple of 120
amounts to one logical scroll event. Fractions of 120 indicate a wheel
movement less than one detent.
Three new events are now available on libinput:
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_WHEEL,
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_FINGER, and
LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_SCROLL_CONTINUOUS.
These events replace the LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_AXIS event, so new
clients should simply ignore that event.
Also, two new APIs are available to access the high-resolution data:
libinput_event_pointer_get_scroll_value() and
libinput_event_pointer_get_scroll_value_v120().
Create a new event, wlr_event_pointer_axis_v120, to represent
high-resolution axis events and a signal to emit them:
wlr_pointer->pointer.axis_value120.
This removes the need for the ad-hoc loop.
Because udev creates the symlinks in /dev/dri/by-path/, we need to
wait for it to consume all pending events before the chmod call.
Previously the delay needed for seatd to come up was enough to let
udev create the symlinks in time (by chance).
A launchee notifies with a "remove"¹ message when done starting up.
Catch these and forward to the compositor. This allows the compositor to
end the startup sequence that might have been started by another
protocol like xdg-activation.
We don't handle other messages since we expect the launcher to use a
wayland protocol like xdg-activation.
While `_NET_STARTUP_ID` helps to associate toplevels with startup-ids
this signals the end of the startup sequence.

This allows callers to specify the operations they'll perform on
the returned data pointer. The motivations for this are:
- The upcoming Linux MAP_NOSIGBUS flag may only be usable on
read-only mappings.
- gbm_bo_map with GBM_BO_TRANSFER_READ hurts performance.
This will allow more scene-graph extensions to be added without
cluttering wlr_scene.c, for instance for sub-surface handling and
wlr_output_layout integration.
When providing non-zero layout-local coordinates to
wlr_scene_render_output, the viewport should be translated by the
given values. However the viewport was translated by the opposite
values: when giving 42,42 the viewport's position would be set to
-42,-42.
Modesets require a buffer. The DRM backend tried to auto-enable
outputs when a CRTC becomes available in the past, but now that
fails because no buffer is available.
Instead of having this magic inside the DRM backend, a better
approach is to do it in the compositor or in an optional helper.
On modeset wlr_output will internally allocate a buffer. The
backend will emit a "mode" output event, then wlr_output will
emit a "commit" event.
wlr_output_damage handles the "mode" event by damaging the whole
output, and then handles the "commit" event. However the commit
event has a buffer, so wlr_output_damage rotates the damage in its
ring buffer, thinking the compositor has rendered a frame. The
compositor hasn't rendered a frame, what wlr_output_damage sees is
the internal wlr_output black buffer used for the modeset.
Let's fix this by damaging the whole output in the "commit" event
handler if the mode has changed. Additionally, damage the whole
output after rotating the damage ring buffer.
Previously, we were copying wlr_output_state on the stack and
patching it up to be guaranteed to have a proper drmModeModeInfo
stored in it (and not a custom mode). Also, we had a bunch of
helpers deriving DRM-specific information from the generic
wlr_output_state.
Copying the wlr_output_state worked fine so far, but with output
layers we'll be getting a wl_list in there. An empty wl_list stores
two pointers to itself, copying it on the stack blindly results in
infinite loops in wl_list_for_each.
To fix this, rework our DRM backend to stop copying wlr_output_state,
instead add a new struct wlr_drm_connector_state which holds both
the wlr_output_state and additional DRM-specific information.
