Initially the WaylandThread cursor code was supposed to be as stateless
as possible but, as time went on, this wasn't possible.
This expectation made the resulting API quite convoluted, so this patch
aims to simplify it substantially bot in terms of API surface and, most
importantly, in terms of actual implementation complexity.
This patch also fixes custom cursors since I accidentally changed the
mmap flags to MAP_PRIVATE some time ago. This took me hours to notice.
While experimenting with the recent "extent to title" PR, I noticed that
it's not guaranteed for a "button released" event to be emitted when
the pointer leaves the main surface, leaving some buttons stuck.
Not doing this for tablets since the spec makes this behavior clear and
explicit, so we (hopefully) shouldn't have this issue there.
Features:
- Debug-only tracking of objects by type. See
get_driver_allocs_by_object_type et al.
- Debug-only Breadcrumb info for debugging GPU crashes and device lost
- Performance report per frame from get_perf_report
- Some VMA calls had to be modified in order to insert the necessary
memory callbacks
Functionality marked as "debug-only" is only available in debug or dev
builds.
Misc fixes:
- Early break optimization in RenderingDevice::uniform_set_create
============================
The work was performed by collaboration of TheForge and Google. I am
merely splitting it up into smaller PRs and cleaning it up.
Before, multiple capability events would instantiate the same object
over and over as long as its bit was set. This caused issues with
hotplug and device suspension.
This reduces even further the amount of work we have to do when scaling
and potentially improves input accuracy as now the input code is free
from any form of rounding.
Before of this patch, as explained in the usual
commented-wall-of-text-longer-than-the-actual-patch-itself™, due to the
multithreaded nature of the Wayland thread, it was possible to commit a
surface while the renderer was doing stuff, which was _very_ wrong.
Initially the consequences of such a sin weren't obvious but, now that
explicit synchronization is becoming more and more common, we can't
commit a buffer randomly without basically guaranteeing a nasty, nasty
crash (and we should have avoided commits altogether in the first place
to ensure atomic surface updates).
We now only trigger a commit _in the main thread_ when low processor usage
mode is on _and_ if we know that we won't be rendering anything as, due to
its intermittent nature, it makes "legacy" (pre xdg_wm_base v6) frame
callback based suspension quite annoying.
This avoids any assumption from the driver, which would otherwise select
a specific platform and potentially mess up everything, resulting
usually in a display server failure.
Mainly, this fixes auto UI scaling with _single-monitor_ fractional
setups (see the comment in `display_server_wayland.cpp` for more info).
This is the result of a bunch of current limitations, mainly the fact
that the UI scale is static (it's probed at startup) and the fact that
Wayland exposes fractional scales only at the window-level, by design.
The `screen_get_scale` special case should help in 99% of cases, while
the auto UI scale part will unfortunately only help with single-screen
situations, as multi-screen fractional scaling requires dynamic UI
scale changing.
Random-access access to `List` when iterating is `O(n^2)` (`O(n)` when
accessing a single element)
* Removed subscript operator, in favor of a more explicit `get`
* Added conversion from `Iterator` to `ConstIterator`
* Remade existing operations into other solutions when applicable
Previously we pretty much hardcoded most of the globals we requested,
causing compatibility issues with certain compositors like Weston, which
support only some pretty old versions or miss some more advanced
protocols.
To put fuel on the fire, we also errored out when certain protocols
weren't available, despite us being able to boot a game just fine (but
obviously with a degraded featureset).
The solution is to simply allow all the way from version 1 to the
current latest, adding some compatibility code (such as for older
`wl_output`s or newer `wl_pointer`s).
While we're at it, this commit also fixes a few typos and naming inconsistencies
I found.
Before, the cursor kept updating for no good reason really.
It's also a bit neater and it ever-so-slightly makes `WAYLAND_DEBUG`
logs easier to read, although they're still spammed by the window's
frame logic (which is needed).
This code was already partially there, although heavily incomplete and
nowadays commented out.
It got broken after the `WaylandThread` refactor and I didn't bother to
bring it over, preferring to `#if 0` it into oblivion for the time
being as I don't have a tablet/pen which support an eraser and tilt
reporting.
This commit brings it back and adds proper multi-tool support (needed
for eraser detection) thanks to winston-yallow, who could test this code
with their more capable tablet.
This is a pretty popular approach that took a while for me to wrap my
head around and which only recently got "official" support through an
update (xdg_shell version 6), so I think that this is all-in-all a
better option than the overkill 2000Hz ticking we have now :P
Basically, we wait for a frame event and, if either too much time passes
or we get the new `suspended` state, we consider the window as "hidden"
and stop drawing, ticking by the low usage rate.
This should work great for KDE and Mutter, which support the new state,
but not yet for sway, which is still stuck at a very old xdg_shell
version and thus falls back to the timeout approach.
Be aware that if we rely on timing out the engine will have to stall for
the whole timeout, which _could_ be problematic but doensn't seem like
it. Further testing is needed.
Special thanks go to the guys over at #wayland on OFTC, who very
patiently explained me this approach way too many times.
Using 2.2.7.dev115+g0eb441d6.
Had to add `cancelled` to the ignore list, as it's a Wayland signal which
we're handling in our code, so we don't want codespell to fix that "typo".
Also includes the typo fix from #87927.

Not everything is yet implemented, either for Godot or personal
limitations (I don't have all hardware in the world). A brief list of
the most important issues follows:
- Single-window only: the `DisplayServer` API doesn't expose enough
information for properly creating XDG shell windows.
- Very dumb rendering loop: this is very complicated, just know that
the low consumption mode is forced to 2000 Hz and some clever hacks are
in place to overcome a specific Wayland limitation. This will be
improved to the extent possible both downstream and upstream.
- Features to implement yet: IME, touch input, native file dialog,
drawing tablet (commented out due to a refactor), screen recording.
- Mouse passthrough can't be implement through a poly API, we need a
rect-based one.
- The cursor doesn't yet support fractional scaling.
- Auto scale is rounded up when using fractional scaling as we don't
have a per-window scale query API (basically we need
`DisplayServer::window_get_scale`).
- Building with `x11=no wayland=yes opengl=yes openxr=yes` fails.
This also adds a new project property and editor setting for selecting the
default DisplayServer to start, to allow this backend to start first in
exported projects (X11 is still the default for now). The editor setting
always overrides the project setting.
