This makes the hotspot of DND surfaces work when using the Vulkan and
OpenGL renderers.
This bumps the CI image used to the newly built image. This is needed to
install a new enough libwayland-client.so needed for wl_surface.offset.
This is done by adding wayland as a meson subproject, building it
on-demand if the version in the system is not new enough. As
libwayland-client.so is pulled in implicitly when linking to gtk4, the
compile step needs LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to make ld find the right library
to link to.
The term "hdr" is so overloaded, we shouldn't use them anywhere, except
from maybe describing all of this work in blog posts and other marketing
materials.
So do renames:
* hdr => high_depth
* request_hdr => prefers_high_depth
This more accurately describes what is going on.
We were leaking buffers. This wasn't caught by valgrind and friends
because it was shared memory (with the compositor), but top(1) would
instantly see memory consumption of the app and the shell go through the
roof.
We must wl_surface.commit after xdg_surface.ack_configure to make it
have an effect. We failed to do so when a configure event didn't result
in new updates, so make sure we fall back on an simple
wl_surface.commit if there was no new actual frame painted.
Closes: #2910
In order to make the cairo renderer/context behave more similar to how
the OpenGL and Vulkan renderer/context behaves, request a frame callback
and commit in the end frame vfunc.
This means the end frame vfunc in cairo does
* attach buffer
* request frame callback
* sync surface state
* commit
Where as e.g. the OpenGL version of the same flow does
* attach buffer
* request frame callback
* sync surface state
* eglSwapBuffers()
where eglSwapBuffers() indirectly calls wl_surface_commit().
Now that all Cairo contexts are ported to managing cairo surfaces
themselves, the old fallback code that didi the managing is no longer
needed.
Also clarify the behavior of gdk_cairo_context_cairo_create() wrt the
vfunc by doing the early exit and the clipping outside of it.
We used to pass 2 regions to GdkDrawCotnext.end_frame() but code was
confusing what they meant. So we now don't do that anymore and only pass
the region that matters: The frame region.
Also, split it into its own file - which was the original reason for
looking at this code, the rewrite was an unintentional side effect.
This changes the context to create surfaces on demand.
So whenever the compositor holds onto a surface while GDK wants to
render, it just creates a new surface. If the compositor releases
surfaces, we will retain one for the next frame to be rendered, but free
all extra ones.
This way, we should get to a stage where we have exactly as many
surfaces as needed and never allocate/free any.
And make the GdkCairoContext as abstract.
The idea of this and thje following commits is to get rid of all
Cairo code in gdksurface.c (and $backend/gdksurface-$backend.c)
by moving that code into the Cairo context files.
In particular, the GdkSurfaceClass.begin_frame/end_frame()
functions (which are currently exclusively used by the Cairo code
should end up being moved to GdkDrawContextClass.begin/end_frame().
This has multiple benefits:
1. It unifies code between the different drawing contexts.
GL lives in GLContext, Vulkan in VulkanContext and Cairo in
CairoContext. In turn, this makes it way easier to reason about
what's going on in surface-specific code. Currently pretty much
all backends do things wrong when they want to sync to drawing
or to the frame clock.
2. It makes the API of GdkSurface smaller. No drawing code (apart
from creating the contexts) needs to remain.
3. It confines Cairo to the Drawcontext, thereby making it way
more obvious when backends are still using it in situations
where it may now conflict with OpenGL (like when doing the dnd
failed animation or in the APIs that I'm removing in this
branch).
4. We have 2 very different types of Cairo contexts: The X/win32
model, where we have a natively supported Cairo backend but do
double buffering ourselves and use similar surfaces and the
Wayland/Broadway model where we use image surfaces without any
Cairo backend support and have to submit the buffers manually.
By not sharing code between those 2 versions, we can make the
actual code way smaller. We also get around the need to create
1x1 image surfaces in the Wayland backend where we pretend
there's a native Cairo surface.
