GNOME Mutter requires keyboard grab for certain important functionality like
window resizing, interaction with the application context menu, and opening the
Activites view. To allow Mutter to grab the keyboard as needed, we'll ungrab
when the mouse leaves our window.
To be safe, we'll do this for all WMs since forks of Mutter and Matacity (and
possibly others) may have the same behavior, and we don't want to have to keep
track of those.
This adds SDL_SetWindowKeyboardGrab(), SDL_GetWindowKeyboardGrab(),
SDL_SetWindowMouseGrab(), SDL_GetWindowMouseGrab(), and new
SDL_WINDOW_KEYBOARD_GRABBED flag. It also updates the test harness to exercise
this functionality and makes a minor fix to X11 that I missed in
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/02a2d609369b
To fit in with this new support, SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_CAPTURE has been renamed to
SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_CAPTURE with the old name remaining as an alias for backwards
compatibility with older code.
This gives us flexibility to add others hints to control keyboard grab behavior
without having to touch all of the backends. It also allows us to possibly
expose keyboard grab separately from mouse grab for applications that want to
manage those independently.

stdlib: Added SDL_round, SDL_roundf, SDL_lround and SDL_lroundf
The default implementation is based on the one used in the Windows RT video driver.
- SDL_video.c (SDL_ShowMessageBox): replace messageboxdata, set title
or message field to "" if either of them is NULL.
- SDL_video.c (SDL_ShowSimpleMessageBox): set title or message to ""
if either of them is NULL for EMSCRIPTEN builds.
- SDL_bmessagebox.cc: add empty string check along with NULL check for
title and message fields.
- SDL_windowsmessagebox.c (AddDialogString): remove NULL string check
- SDL_windowsmessagebox.c (AddDialogControl): add empty string check
along with the NULL check.
- SDL_x11messagebox.c: revert commit 677c4cd68069
- SDL_os2messagebox.c: revert commit 2c2a489d76e7
- test/testmessage.c: Add NULL title and NULL message tests.

The atom name that X11_GetAtomName() returns never gets freed, which result in a minor memory leak (14 bytes?) every time the user drops a file on a window.
You can see the line in question here:
6b6170caf6/src/video/x11/SDL_x11events.c (L1350)
Fix: call XFree on name after the while loop.
UnmapNotify event does not mean that window has been iconified. It
just reports that window changed state from mapped to unmapped.
XReparentWindow can unmap and remap window if it was mapped. This
causes unnecessary events - HIDDEN, MINIMIZED, RESTORED and SHOW.
These events are problematic with Metacity 3.36+ which started to
remove window decorations from fullscreen windows.
- SDL makes decorated window fullscreen
- Metacity removes decorations
- SDL gets UnmapNotify and exits from fullscreen
- Metacity re-adds decorations
As SDL will also get MapNotify event it will try to restore
window state causing above steps to repeat.

Instead of creating an X11 connection to test that X11 is available,
closing the connection, and then reconnecting for real, use the same
connection to handle both cases.
The X11 connection retry delay mechanism in the case where X11 is
dynamically loaded has been removed. It was only necessary to avoid
authetnication token reuse from the XOpenDisplay call that used to
exist in X11_Available. Now that this call is only made once, it
is no longer needed.
Also drop unused and inapplicable code from a comment.

The two are only ever called together, and combining them makes it possible
to eliminate redundant symbol loading and redundant attempts to connect
to a display server.

Due to the new major fcitx version is coming close, the existing code need to be ported to use new Fcitx dbus interface.
The new dbus interface is supported by both fcitx 4 and 5, and has a good side effect, which is that it will work with flatpak for free. Also the patch remove the dependency on fcitx header. Instead, it just hardcodes a few enum value in the code so need to handle the different header for fcitx4 or 5.
Wait up to 100 milliseconds, since the window manager might alter or
outright veto the window change...or not respond at all.
In a well-functioning system, though, this should help make sure
that SDL_SetWindowPosition's results match reality.
Fixes Bugzilla #4646.

To be precise, this is about *desktop OpenGL* on X11. For OpenGL ES, EGL is already used (as it's the only way to get an OpenGL ES context), as Sylvain noted above.
To shine some light on why this is needed:
In 99% of all cases, using GLX on X11 is fine, even though it's effectively deprecated in favor of EGL [1]. However, there's at least one use case that *requires* the OpenGL context being created with EGL instead of GLX, and that's DRM_PRIME interoperability: The function glEGLImageTargetTexture2DOES simply doesn't work with GLX. (Currently, Mesa actually crashes when trying that.)
Some example code:
https://gist.github.com/kajott/d1b29c613be30893c855621edd1f212e
Runs on Intel and open-source AMD drivers just fine (others unconfirmed), but with #define USE_EGL 0 (i.e. forcing it to GLX), it crashes. The same happens when using SDL for window and context creation.
The good news is that most of the pieces for EGL support on X11 are already in place: SDL_egl.c is pretty complete (and used for desktop OpenGL on Wayland, for example), and SDL_x11opengl.c has the aforementioned OpenGL-ES-on-EGL support. However, when it comes to desktop OpenGL, it's hardcoded to fall back to GLX.
I'm not advocating to make EGL the default for desktop OpenGL on X11; don't fix what ain't broken. But something like an SDL_HINT_VIDEO_X11_FORCE_EGL would be very appreciated to make use cases like the above work with SDL.

Use XGetKeyboardControl to initialize the current XKeyboardState, and
skip XAutoRepeatOn invocation if global_auto_repeat is AutoRepeatModeOn.
This fixes SDL2 when the X11 client is untrusted.
Do not try to guess MIT_SHM extension availability from the string
returned by XDisplayName, use the appropriate API instead.
This fixes SDL2 inside hasher.
SDL_SendWindowEvent will only send a RESTORED event if the window has
the minimized or maximized flag set. However, for a SHOWN event, it
will clear the minimized flag. Since the SHOWN event was being sent
first for a MapNotify event, the RESTORED event would never be sent.
Swapping the SendWindowEvent calls around fixes this.

I have written a program that, in the event that the user requests more MSAA samples than their hardware supports, attempts to gracefully fall back to the best MSAA available. This code works with my conventional OpenGL renderer, but if I change nothing about the code except to make it request an OpenGL ES profile instead, Xlib kills the program with an error that looks like:
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 4 (X_DestroyWindow)
Resource id in failed request: 0x5c00008
Serial number of failed request: 188
Current serial number in output stream: 193
To trigger the bug, attempt to create a window with the SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL flag, with SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK set to SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_ES, and with SDL_GL_MULTISAMPLESAMPLES set to any unsupported value. SDL_CreateWindow properly returns NULL, but at this point the program is already doomed. Xlib will shortly terminate the program with an error. Calling SDL_CreateWindow again will immediately trigger this termination.
I have attached a skeletal program that reproduces this bug for me. Replacing SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_ES with SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_COMPATIBILITY avoids the bug (but, obviously, doesn't create an OpenGL ES context).
As I suspected, the problem was with XDestroyWindow being called twice on the same window. The X11_CreateWindow function in src/video/x11/SDL_x11window.c calls SetupWindowData. If initialization fails after that point, XDestroyWindow gets called on the window by a subsequent call to X11_DestroyWindow. But, later in the same function, iff a GLES context is requested and initializing it fails, X11_XDestroyWindow (which wraps XDestroyWindow) is manually called. Shortly after, the intended call to X11_DestroyWindow occurs, which attempts to destroy the same window again. Boom.
(The above confusing summary involves three separate, similarly-named functions: XDestroyWindow, X11_DestroyWindow, X11_XDestroyWindow)
I have attached a simple patch that removes the redundant X11_XDestroyWindow calls. I've tested that XDestroyWindow still gets called for the windows in question, and that it only gets called once.
This can happen if a window is still grabbed when we try to move it, or if
the X11 ecosystem is just in a bad mood, I guess.
This makes sure that SDL will report the correct position for a window;
otherwise, SDL_GetWindowPosition will just report whatever the last
SDL_SetWindowPosition call requested, even if the window didn't actually move.
Fixes Bugzilla #4646.
With multitouch, register to receive XI_Motion (which desctivates MotionNotify),
so that we can distinguish real mouse motions from synthetic one.

For X11 GenericEvents, the associated data is only available between a call to XGetEventData and the matching XFreeEventData, i.e. in X11_HandleGenericEvent. Trying to call XGetEventData a second time on the same event will fail, so an application that wants to inspect XInput2 events (e.g. for stylus pressure) has no way of retrieving its data from queued SYSWM events.
The attached patch (based on SDL-2.0.7-11629) sends SYSWM messages from X11_HandleGenericEvent while the data is still available, allowing client code to register an event filter/watcher and process the event inside the callback.
