When we fail to render the cursor (in my case because the cursor is too large) we bail out of the output_cursor_attempt_hardware function. This causes output_cursor_set_texture to clean up after us, but we've already cleared the hardware_cursor, and so output_disable_hardware_cursor thinks we don't have a hardware cursor to disable. We shouldn't modify the hardware_cursor variable before we've successfully changed the hardware cursor, this way the caller can clean up after us like it expect to. This was brought up by an actual bug when playing the game Kaizen. Which uses oddly sized cursors, that fell back to software cursors for me, and left the hardware cursor hanging around. This change has been tested to fix that. During the testing of this change, I have noticed that the previous code worked fine the first time the cursor was switch to software. It only failed on subsequent attempts. I haven't figured out why that is. |

wlroots
Pluggable, composable, unopinionated modules for building a Wayland compositor; or about 60,000 lines of code you were going to write anyway.
- wlroots provides backends that abstract the underlying display and input hardware, including KMS/DRM, libinput, Wayland, X11, and headless backends, plus any custom backends you choose to write, which can all be created or destroyed at runtime and used in concert with each other.
- wlroots provides unopinionated, mostly standalone implementations of many Wayland interfaces, both from wayland.xml and various protocol extensions. We also promote the standardization of portable extensions across many compositors.
- wlroots provides several powerful, standalone, and optional tools that implement components common to many compositors, such as the arrangement of outputs in physical space.
- wlroots provides an Xwayland abstraction that allows you to have excellent Xwayland support without worrying about writing your own X11 window manager on top of writing your compositor.
- wlroots provides a renderer abstraction that simple compositors can use to avoid writing GL code directly, but which steps out of the way when your needs demand custom rendering code.
wlroots implements a huge variety of Wayland compositor features and implements them right, so you can focus on the features that make your compositor unique. By using wlroots, you get high performance, excellent hardware compatibility, broad support for many wayland interfaces, and comfortable development tools - or any subset of these features you like, because all of them work independently of one another and freely compose with anything you want to implement yourself.
Check out our wiki to get started with wlroots. Join our IRC channel: #wlroots on Libera Chat.
A variety of wrapper libraries are available for using it with your favorite programming language.
