We want the compositor to do different things for frames where
"slept before" is TRUE. Communicate to the compositor that
frame is a no-delay frame (slept_before=FALSE) by ending the frame
by increasing the counter value by 1, and that the frame is a
normal frame (slept_before=TRUE) by increasing the counter value
by 3.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Add functions that tell us whether the main loop slept before we drew
a frame. Blocking with the frame clock frozen doesn't count as sleeping.
We'll use this to advertise to the compositor whether we
are drawing as fast as possible (and it should do the same) or timing
frames carefully (and it should do the same.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Don't start the idle if we're in the middle of painting a frame -
this will prevent us from getting the timing right when starting
the idle after the frame.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
In order to be able to track statistics about how well we are drawing,
and in order to be able to do sophisticated things with frame timing
like predicting per-frame latencies and synchronizing audio with video,
we need to be able to track exactly when previous frames were drawn
to the screen.
Information about each frame is stored in a new GdkFrameTimings object.
A new GdkFrameHistory object is added which keeps a queue of recent
GdkFrameTimings (this is added to avoid further complicating the
implementation of GdkFrameClock.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Instead of communicating the start of a frame to the window manager
as soon as we begin a frame, start a frame only when we know we've
actually created damage to the contents of a window.
(This uses cairo_set_mime_data() as a notification mechanism - a
clever suggestion from Uli Schlachter.)
The advantage of this is that we aren't forcing the compositor to
do a frame cycle and send _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN - depending on how the
compositor is structured that might either cause it to do extra
work or it might send _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN early and upset frame
timing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Since events can be paused independently for each window during processing,
make _gdk_display_pause_events() count how many times it is called
and only unpause when unpause_events() is called the same number of
times.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Unqueuing events from the windowing system when paused could result
in weird reordering if event filters resulted in application-visible
behavior. Since we now resume events when the frame clock is frozen,
we now no longer count on low-level event handling running while
event handling is paused.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Keeping events paused after the end of a frame put us in a
weird state where we had to process and queue events - so that
we would get the message from the compositor - but not deliver
them. Instead resume events before ending the frame.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
When we have pending motion events, instead of delivering them
directly, request the new FLUSH_EVENTS phase of the frame clock.
This allows us to compress repeated motion events sent to the
same window.
In the FLUSH_EVENTS phase, which occur at priority GDK_PRIORITY_EVENTS + 1,
we deliver any pending motion events then turn off event delivery
until the end of the next frame. Turning off event delivery means
that we'll reliably paint the compressed motion events even if more
have arrived.
Add a motion-compression test case which demonstrates behavior when
an application takes too long handle motion events. It is unusable
without this patch but behaves fine with the patch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Switch GtkStyleContext to using GdkFrameClock. To do this, add a new
UPDATE phase to GdkFrameClock.
Add a GdkFrameClockTarget interface with a single set_clock() method,
and use this to deal with the fact that GtkWidget only has a frame
clock when realized.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
If the backend is throttling paints, then the frame clock will be
frozen at the end of the frame. If not, then we need to add throttling,
so wait until 16ms after the start of the frame before beginning the
next frame.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
By starting with an odd frame counter value, we make the mapping
and initial paint of the window an atomic operation, avoiding
any visual artifacts from an unpainted window.
Possible improvement: start the frame when doing gdk_window_show(),
so that the same improvement occurs for windows that were previously
shown and are being mapped again.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
When a window is unmapped, freeze its frame clock. This avoids doing
unnecessary work, but also means that we won't block waiting for
_NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN messages that will never be received since the
frame ended while the window was withdrawn.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
As part of the extended _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST_COUNTER protocol,
we get a _NET_WM_FRAME_DRAWN message for each frame we draw. Use this
to synchronize the updates we are doing with the compositing manager's
drawing, and ultimately with with display refresh.
We now set the sync request counters on all windows, including
override-redirect windows, since it is also useful to do synchronized,
atomic updates for such windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
By exporting two XSync counters on a toplevel window, we subscribe
to an extended form of the _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST_COUNTER protocol,
where the window manager can initiate an atomic frame, as previously,
but the application can also do so by incrementing the new counter to
an odd value, and then to an even value to finish the frame.
See:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/wm-spec-list/2011-October/msg00006.html
The support for 64-bit integers that GLib requires is used to
simplify the logic.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Add the ability to freeze a frame clock, which pauses its operation,
then thaw it again later to resume.
Initially this is used to implement freezing updates when we are
waiting for ConfigureNotify in response to changing the size of
a toplevel.
We need a per-window clock for this to work properly, so add that
for the X11 backend.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Instead of having gdk_frame_clock_request_frame() have
gdk_frame_clock_request_phase() where we can say what phase we need.
This allows us to know if we get a frame-request during layout whether
it's just a request for drawing from the layout, or whether another
layout phase is needed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
We may receive events because SubstructureNotifyMask has been selected
for the root window. (Most likely, this would occur because GTK+
is being used inside a window manager like Metacity or Mutter.)
This can confuse various types of internal accounting, so detect
such events and comprehensively ignore them for GDK's internal
purposes. We still need to generate GDK events for these cases
because you can select for substructure events with
GDK_SUBSTRUCTURE_MASK.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685460
Some backends do not have slave devices, which means last_slave may be
NULL. Use the current device as the source device if last_slave is NULL
when synthesizing a crossing event.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692411
We now store the current opacity for all windows. For native windows
we just call into the native implementation whenever the opacity changes.
However, for non-native windows we implement opacity by pushing a
second implicit paint that "stacks" on the existing one, acting as
an opacity group while rendering the window and its children.
This works well in general, although any native child windows will of
course not be opaque. However, there is no way to implement
implicit paint flushing (i.e. draw the currently drawn double buffer
to the window in order to allow direct drawing to the window).
We can't flush in the stacked implicit paint case because there
is no way to get the right drawing behaviour when drawing directly
to the window. We *must* draw to the opacity group to get the right
behaviour.
We currently flush if:
* A widget disables double buffering
* You call move/resize/scroll a window and it has non-native children
during the expose handler
In case this happens we warn and flush the outermost group, so there may
be drawing errors.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687842
_gdk_display_device_grab_update does not support passing in NULL for the
source device. If we don't have a slave device (saved in the pointer info)
then do not try and use that NULL pointer for the source_device.
This bug appeared in the Wayland backend where we (currently) only have master
devices exposed and as such no slave device is ever saved.

Since XIQueryVersion, the bad API that it is, enforces the version from
the first client that requests it, for clients to be able to use the new
features in XI2.3, we need to ensure that we pass XIQueryVersion 2.3 as
the version that we support. We know that GTK+ won't be confused by the
new features.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692467
The X server should fill in the minor version that it supports in the
case where it only supports the older version, so we can safely always
pass a higher version number than is potentially supported by the
server.
libXi was designed to be stable in the case where it doesn't recognize
requests or events/replies, so this should still work in a case where
we have new versions of the X server, and GTK+, but an old version of
libXi, at least for however well that setup should work.
