The code to create and manage a fake egl surface to bind to is
complex and completely untested because everyone seems to support this
extension.
nvidia and Mesa do support it and according to Mesa devs, adding support
in a new driver is rather simple and Mesa drivers gain that feature
automatically, so all future drivers shoould have it.
That way, we can give a useful error message when things break down for
users.
These error messages could still be improved in places (like looking at
the actual EGL error codes), but that seemed overkill.
Query the EGL_VISUAL_ID from the egl Config and select a config with the
matching Visual.
This is currently broken on Mesa because it does not expose any RGBA
X Visuals in any EGL config, so we always end up with opaque Windows.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/149
Instead of going via GdkVisual, doing a preselection and letting the GL
initialization improve it, let the GL initialization pick an X Visual
directly using X Visual code directly.
The code should select the same visuals as before as it tries to apply
the same logic, but it's a rewrite, so I expect I messed something up.
We only have one config, because we use the same Visual everywhere.
Store this config in the GdkDisplayX11 struct for easy access.
Also do this on initialize, because if creating the config fails, we
want to switch to GLX instead of failing to do GL at all.
This also simplifies a lot of code as we can share Visual, Colormap, etc
across surfaces.
There's no need to use g_object_set_data() for it.
We can also stop caching it elsewhere because we know the display has
it.
And finally, we can remove the display->have_egl boolean and use
display->egl_display != NULL instead. We initialize the display at
startup, so that variable is the perfect indicator.
It's only used during DND to allow use of the root window's cow window
as a DND target, because apparently gnome-shell used to think that was a
great idea to DND to the overview.
Somebody complain to gnome-shell devs about it not being a good idea if
they want it fixed.
Potentially using Wayland is a better idea though.

With the vendor provided Nvidia driver there is a small window of time
after drawing to a GL surface before the updates to that surface
can be used by the compositor.
Drawing is already coordinated with the compositor through the frame
synchronization protocol detailed here:
https://fishsoup.net/misc/wm-spec-synchronization.html
Unfortunately, at the moment, GdkX11Surface tells the compositor the
frame is ready immediately after drawing to the surface, not later,
when it's consumable by the compositor.
This commit defers announcing the frame as ready until it's consumable
by the compositor. It does this by listening for the X server to announce
damage events associated with the frame drawing. It tries to find the
right damage event by waiting until fence placed at buffer swap time
signals.
commit 14bf58ec5d dropped support
for using the DAMAGE extension since there was no code that
needed it.
We're going to need it again, however, to address an NVidia
vendor driver issue.
This commit does the plumbing to add it back.
replace all uses with const char * (non-interned).
Also remove a lot fo juggling from atom to GdkAtom to string and back.
The X Atom hash table is now mapping to (again, non-interned) strings.
Instead of passing a half-constructed event and expect
it to be filled in, pass the surface as in argument, and
add an out argument for a newly constructed GdkEvent.
GdkDragContext => GdkDrop
This is all in preparation of separation of the drag and drop.
Also, don't check for GDK_DRAG_PROTO_XDND anymore - it's the only
possible value for the protocol on the target side.
... and its implementation in the X11 backend.
GDK does lots of work trying to reduce the region in expose events
so that when the server sends multiple expose events, touching the
same area we can make sure to only redraw stuff once. However:
(1) this is only relevant of there's tons of delay and multiple
expose events get sent
(2) we coalesce multiple events into a single expose event anyway
(3) we do this on the frame clock
But most importantly:
(4) Since the invention of compositing, servers caches all contents
anyway

Drop the public filtering API. The x11 backend already has
the ::xevent signal as replacement. The win32 backend needs
a similar signal to replace filtering.
Reshuffle header inclusions in the x11 backend a little bit
to avoid a cyclic inclusion between gdkprivate-x11.h and
gdkdisplay-x11.h that is otherwise causing problems.
We now have a GdkX11Display::xevent signal that gets emitted for every
XEvent and allows you to interrupt processing via TRUE/FALSE return
values.
These return values to correspond to GDK_FILTER_REMOVE and
GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE respectively.
The GDK_FILTER_TRANSLATE case from gdk_window_add_filter() is now meant
to be handled via gdk_display_put_event().
Instead of creating a GdkX11Cursor, create GdkCursors. Cache the XCursor
in a hash table instead.
Also, make use of the new fallback mechanism for fallback code: Make
sure to provide cursors for the names that are guaranteed to exist, but
do not do bad attempts at displaying texture surfaces.
Black/White/transparent is not a replacement for those.
These complicate a lot of GdkWindow internals to implement features
that not a lot of apps use, and will be better achieved using gsk.
So, we just drop it all.
