If you hide a window on Mutter, for example, the compositor never requests
new frames, which will cause Mesa to block forever in eglSwapBuffers to
satisfy the swap interval.
We now always set the swap interval to 0 and manage this ourselves, handing
the frame to Wayland when it requests a new one, and timing out at 10fps just
to keep apps moving if the compositor wants no frames at all.
My understanding is that other protocols are coming that might improve upon
this solution, but for now it solves the total hang.
Fixes#4335.
Previous version used 'popen' which required to sanitize user provided text. Not
sanitizing text could cause failure if user provided text included a " or command
injection with `cmd`.
This unearthed an unspeakably large amount of bugs in the wl_output enumerator,
notably the fact that the wl_output user pointer was to temporary memory!
This was "fixed" in e862856, and was then pointed out as a leak in 4183211,
which was undone in d9ba204. The busted fix was correct that the malloc was an
issue, but wrong about _why_; SDL_AddVideoDisplay copies by value and does not
reuse the pointer, so generally you want your VideoDisplay to be on the stack,
but of course the callbacks don't allow that, so a malloc was a workaround. But
we can do better and just host our temporary display inside WaylandOutputData
because that will be persistent while also not leaking.
Wait, wasn't I talking about move events? Right, that: wl_surface_listener does
at least give us the ability to know what monitor we're on, even though we have
no idea where we are on the monitor. All we need to do is check the wl_output
against the display list and then push a move event that both indicates the
correct display while also not being _too_ much of a lie (but enough of a lie
to where our event doesn't get discarded as "undefined" or whatever). The index
check for the video display is what spawned the great nightmare you see before
you; aside from the bugfix this is actually a really basic patch.
There is no guarantee on what order the Wayland interfaces will come in, but the
callbacks were assuming that wl_data_device_manager would could before wl_seat.
This would cause certain desktops to not have any data_device to work with,
meaning certain features like the clipboard would silently no-op.
KWin has supported the shared and formalised zxdg_decoration since
Plasma 5.16 which came out mid 2019.
Whilst it made sense to support them both for a while, it should not be
needed for future SDL releases.
Because Wayland only supports FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP, fullscreen_mode never gets
assigned at all, meaning driverdata is always NULL! Depending on what the
compositor does this can lead to dramatically different results. GNOME was fine
without this, but Plasma would trip an event that unintentionally unset the
fullscreen mode and caused the game to fire a configure event _every frame_,
and of course the configure would send the fullscreen_mode output which was
still empty. The fix is to just use the SDL_VideoDisplay directly, which will
always have a valid wl_output.
Note that this is purely to make it possible to enter text that requires
composition - for example, before this commit Kanji input didn't work at all.
The big problem this still has is that we need the window position, and this is
still not implemented. Once we have this information we can do the equivalent
of XTranslateCoordinates to put the rectangle where we want it.
There seems to be a bug where it can wrap the text based on the minimum possible
window size, which can be worked around with --no-wrap. This technically uncaps
the width entirely, but this isn't wildly different from what other backends do.
Unlike Mutter and Sway, KWin actually checks the serial passed in
wl_pointer_set_cursor(). The serial provided is supposed to be the
serial of the pointer enter event, but We were always passing 0.
This caused KWin to drop our requests to hide the cursor.
Thanks to the KDE folks for spotting this in my debug logs.

This patch fixes the warnings seen when compiling the Wayland backend. This will also be required in the future to avoid issues with compilation.
