This kind of transient state sets the expectative that events update
devices, while it's more accurate to say that devices generate events.
It does not make to expose this function anymore.
Crossing events are now detached from widget state, all tricky consequences
from getting multiple crossing events are now somewhat moot. Resort to sending
all generated crossing events, and drop this barely (ever?) used API.
Commit a0f6ff101e made sure that a
context was bound before calling glClientWaitSync, but it doesn't
check that the context shares objects with the context that created
the fence.
This commit does a little more validation before deciding the current
context is good enough.
Since commit 972134abe4 we now call
glClientWaitSync for the vendor nvidia driver, to know when a frame
is ready for the compositor to process.
glClientWaitSync can be called regardless of which context is currently
bound, but if no context is bound at all, it returns 0 without
doing anything.
This commit checks for that edge case, and ensures a context gets
made current in the event no context is already current, before calling
glClientWaitSync.
When given a 0 timeout, glClientWaitSync is only supposed to return one
of three possible values:
- GL_ALREADY_SIGNALED - fence fired
- GL_WAIT_FAILED - there was an error
- GL_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED - fence hasn't fired yet
In addition, it can also return GL_CONDITION_SATISFIED if a non-zero
timeout is passed, and the fence fires while waiting on the timeout.
Since commit 972134abe4 we now call
glClientWaitSync (with a 0 timeout), but one user is reporting it's
returning some value that's not one of the above four.
This commit changes the g_assert to a g_error so we can see what
value is getting returned.

Fix scheduling of the frame clock when we don't receive "frame drawn"
messages from the compositor.
If we received "frame drawn" events recently, then the "smooth frame
time" would be in sync with the vsync time. When we don't receive frame
drawn events, the "smooth frame time" is simply incremented by constant
multiples of the refresh interval. In both cases we can use this smooth
time as the basis for scheduling the next clock cycle.
By only using the "smooth frame time" as a basis we also benefit from
more consistent scheduling cadence. If, for example, we got "frame
drawn" events, then didn't receive them for a few frames, we would still
be in sync when we start receiving these events again.
When an animation is started while the application is idle, that often
happens as a result of some external event. This can be an input event,
an expired timer, data arriving over the network etc. The result is that
the first animation clock cycle could be scheduled at some random time,
as opposed to follow up cycles which are usually scheduled right after a
vsync.
Since the frame time we report to the application is correlated to the
time when the frame clock was scheduled to run, this can result in
uneven times reported in the first few animation frames. In order to fix
that, we measure the phase of the first clock cycle - i.e. the offset
between the first cycle and the preceding vsync. Once we start receiving
"frame drawn" signals, the cadence of the frame clock scheduling becomes
tied to the vsync. In order to maintain the regularity of the reported
frame times, we adjust subsequent reported frame times with the
aforementioned phase.
Use better matching format modifiers/specifiers, initialise some things
which in theory wont be written to because of getters using g_return_if_fail(),
a cast, and gsize as input for malloc because gsize!=glong on 64bit Windows.
GTK 4.0 was currently using GL_EXT_framebuffer_object, which is
deprecated as the ARB version has been merged into OpenGL 3.0 as well as
OpenGL ES 2.0, and provides laxer requirements.
This is a port of !2076 for 4.x.
Scroll events can have history too, so make a
getter that works for both. This drops the
gdk_scroll_event_get_history getter that was
added a few commits earlier, since we now
store scroll history in the same way as
motion history.
Update the docs, and all callers.
There is really no need to store 128 doubles as axes,
ever. We can do just fine with 10. At the same time,
add a GdkAxisFlags member, so we can interpret the
values without having to go chasing the right device
for this information.
Only return one accumulated scroll event per frame.
Compress them by adding up the deltas.
Still missing: a way to capture history, like
we do for motion events.
Fixes: #2800
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.
This commit moves some of the end frame sync counter handling
code to subroutines.
It's a minor readability win, but the main motivation is to
make it easier in a subsequent commit to defer updating the
sync counter until a more appropriate time.
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.
When the application does not receive "frame drawn" signals we schedule
the clock to run more or less at intervals equal to the last known
refresh interval. In order to minimize clock skew we have to aim for
exact intervals.
We try to step the frame clock in whole refresh_interval steps, but to
avoid drift and rounding issues we additionally try to converge it to
be synced to the physical vblank (actually the time we get the
frame-drawn message from the compositor, but these are tied together).
However, the convergence to vsync only really makes sense if the new
frame_time actually is tied to the vsync. It may very well be that
some other kind of event (say a network or mouse event) triggered
the redraw, and not a vsync presentation.
We used to assume that all frames that are close in time (< 4 frames
apart) were regular and thus tied to the vsync, but there is really no
guarantee of that. Even non regular times could be rapid.
This commit changes the code to only do the convergence-to-real-time
if the cause of the clock cycle was a thaw (i.e. last frame drawn and
animating). Paint cycles for any other kind of reason are always
scheduled an integer number of frames after the last cycle that was
caused by a thaw.
When we get to a paint cycle we now know if this was caused by a
thaw, which typically means last frame was drawn, or some other event.
In the first case the time of the cycle is tied to the vblank in some
sense, and in the others it is essentially random. We can use this
information to compute better frame times. (Will be done in later
commits.)
The included fribidi header is not used in gdkkeys-wayland.c and already
included in gdk.c which causes linker issues due to the header defining
a global variable.
Scroll events do not have a position, so they shouldn't implement the
GdkEventClass.get_position() virtual function; nor they should have an x
and y fields that never get updated.
When we run the frameclock RUN_FLUSH_IDLE idle before the paint,
then gdk_frame_clock_flush_idle() sets
```
priv->phase = GDK_FRAME_CLOCK_PHASE_BEFORE_PAINT
```
at the end if there is a paint comming.
But, before doing the paint cycle it may handle other X events, and
during that time the phase is set to BEFORE_PAINT. This means that the
current check on whether we're inside a paint is wrong:
```
if (priv->phase != GDK_FRAME_CLOCK_PHASE_NONE &&
priv->phase != GDK_FRAME_CLOCK_PHASE_FLUSH_EVENTS)
return priv->smoothed_frame_time_base;
```
This caused us to sometimes use this smoothed_frame_time_base even
though we previously reported a later value during PHASE_NONE, thus
being non-monotonic.
We can't just additionally check for the BEGIN_PAINT phase though,
becasue if we are in the paint loop actually doing that phase we
should use the time base. Instead we check for `!(BEFORE_PAINT &&
in_paint_idle)`.
