To do that, find all windows intersecting with the screen geometry, and

Otherwise, find the respective backing store and grab only that.
Remove the old code respecting the desktop widget, which is no longer a

Unlike other input devices, touch devices are managed by corresponding
handler threads which are not the main thread. InputEvent that is
inherited by TouchEvent has a constant pointer member for device, but in
touch events case, handler threads may destroy the device which is
pointed by events while processing these events in main thread,
and this may cause critical potential issues such as crash. In order to
prevent this race condition, move device of QEvdevTouchScreenHandler
into main thread and delete this device later if QGuiApplication
instance exists when handler thread quits, and check event's device is
valid when processing touch events.

When high-dpi is enabled, we would previously default to
QFont::PreferVerticalHinting which maps to the asymmetric
antialiasing strategy, where only horizontal antialiasing is
enabled.
The idea behind this is that it provides crisper text,
especially for smaller font sizes, but for larger font sizes
the aliasing artifacts outweigh the added sharpness.
Inspecting native Windows applications, such as the system
settings, it looks like asymmetric antialiasing is used
up to a certain font size threshold. The documentation uses
a font size of 16 as the suggested threshold.
In accordance with the documentation, we use PreferNoHinting
for font sizes above this threshold.
[ChangeLog][Windows] When high-dpi scaling is active, the
default text antialiasing has been set to symmetric for
larger fonts (pixel size higher than 16 px). The old default
can be selected manually as QFont::PreferVerticalHinting.

577d698b8e changed QString::isUpper /
isLower behaviors to match Unicode semantics: a string is uppercase
if it's identical to its own toLower/toUpper folding. These semantics
come from Unicode so they're not up for debate.
That commit however left QByteArray untouched. Generally speaking, we
want to move away from QByteArray as "text storage" -- this has
partially happened between Qt 5 and Qt 6, where QByteArray went from
Latin-1 semantics to ASCII semantics. Still, QByteArray offers
toUpper/toLower and isUpper/isLower and all this family of functions
should be consistent in behavior.
Apply the same fix that was applied to QString.
[ChangeLog][Important Behavior Changes] The semantics of
QByteArray::isLower() and QByteArray::isUpper() have been changed. Now
lowercase (resp. uppercase) byte arrays are allowed to contain any
character; a byte array is considered lowercase (resp. uppercase) if
it's equal to its own toLower() (resp. toUpper()) folding. For instance,
the "abc123" byte array is now considered to be lowercase.
Previously, the isLower() (resp. isUpper()) functions checked whether
the byte array only contained ASCII lowercase (resp. uppercase)
characters, and was at least 1 character long. This had the side effect
that byte array containing ASCII non-letters (e.g. numbers, symbols,
etc.) were not lowercase nor uppercase.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QByteArray] QByteArray::isLower() and
QByteArray::isUpper() now work correctly with empty byte arrays. The
semantics of these functions have been changed.

Unlike QString and QStringView, QByteArrayView and QByteArray don't
overload well.
Solve the overload issue the usual way: by making the QByteArray one a
Q_WEAK_OVERLOAD. This is trivial for QStaticByteArrayMatcher, which
isn't exported, but require QT_REMOVED_SINCE magic for
QByteArrayMatcher, which is.
The additional const char* overload has shielded us from the worst
fall-out so far, it seems, but it makes for a truly horrible overload
set:
matcher.indexIn(str, 3);
Q: Is the 3 here the length of the haystack or the value of the from
parameter?
A: It depends on decltype(str)!
If the (const char*, qsizetype, qsizetype=0) overload is the better
match, then 3 limits the haystack's length.
If, otoh, the (QByteArray(View), qsizetype) overload is the better
match, then it's the value of the from parameter.
As if this wasn't bad enough, QByteArray implcitly converts to const
char* by default!
A follow-up patch will therefore deprecate the (ptr, size) overloads,
so we de-inline the QByteArrayView ones to avoid having to touch the
implementation once more.

After QFuture continuations became non-copyable (see earlier commits),
we have to always use ContinuationWrapper to save the continuations
inside std::function, since it requires the callable to be copyable.
Optimize the wrapper, by storing the callable directly (instead of using
a ref-counted QSharedPointer) and introducing a fake copy-constructor
that makes sure that it's never called.

Capturing a QFuture in the continuations attached to it results in
memory leaks. QFuture's ref-counted data can only be deleted when the
last copy referencing the data gets deleted. The saved continuation
that keeps a copy of the future (as in case of the lambda capture) will
prevent the data from being deleted. So we need to manually clean the
continuation after it is run. But this doesn't solve the problem if the
continuation isn't run. In that case, clean the continuation in the
destructor of the associated QPromise.
To avoid similar leaks, internally we should always create futures via
QPromise, instead of the ref-counted QFutureInterface, so that the
continuation is always cleaned in the destructor. Currently QFuture
continuations and QtFuture::when* methods use QFutureInterface directly,
which will be fixed by the follow-up commits.

GCC is unable to emit the SEH metadata about the stack aligning that is
required to execute AVX aligned instructions (VMOVDQA, VMOVAPS, etc.),
so it just doesn't align the stack. That causes crashes on a 50/50
chance every time the compiler attempts to address a stack-aligned
variable. In a debug-mode build, because it always loads & saves
everything on the stack, the chance of a crash happening is a near
certainty.
So we hack around it by going behind the compiler's back and instructing
the assembler to emit the unaligned counterparts of the instructions
every time the compiler wished to emit the aligned one. There's no
performance penalty: if the variable is actually aligned, the unaligned
instruction executes in the exact same time.

qSwap() is a monster that looks for ADL overloads of swap() and also
detects the noexcept of the wrapped swap() function, so it should only
be used when the argument type is unknown. In the vast majority of
cases, the type is known to be efficiently std::swap()able or to have
a member-swap. Call either of these.
For the common case of pointer types, circumvent the expensive trait
checks on std::swap() by providing a hand-rolled qt_ptr_swap()
template, the advantage being that it can be unconditionally noexcept,
removing all type traits instantiations. Don't document it, otherwise

The UB that the C and C++ standards talk about do not apply if we use
intrinsics. We can rely on the processors' architectural behavior
instead.
There are two ways to detect a conversion that cannot be represented in
the result. One would be to check if the #IE bit got set in the MXCSR,
but in order to do that we'd need two issue an STMXCSR+LDMCXSR pair to
clear the bit first and then another STMXCSR at the end to see if it got
set. Those instructions are 4 uops long and necessarily target memory,
so that's a bit slow.
This commit implements the second way, which is to check if the result
of the conversion is the "undefined" value. Unfortunately, that value is
a valid, precise value that double can hold for all data types except
unsigned 64-bit, so we need to recheck if that was the actual value
stored in the original double.
This implementation targets 64-bit exclusively because that avoids
having to deal with the 64-bit intrinsics not even being defined in 32-
bit code (converting a double to 64-bit integer in 32-bit is messy). The
unsigned implementation is only implemented with AVX512F because of the
unsigned conversion instructions that were introduced then.

acceptable value, that is _POSIX_PIPE_BUF.

Also, explicitly include <limits.h> in this file, to make sure PIPE_BUF
or _POSIX_PIPE_BUF are available without relying on other headers to
pull <limits.h>.

Apart from a more fitting, minimal, API, QDuplicateTracker also
transparently uses C++17 pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource to avoid,
or at least reduce, memory allocations.
