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.
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.
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.
We support both the org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver D-Bus API (same as the X11
backend) and the Wayland idle_inhibit_unstable_v1 protocol.
Some Wayland compositors only support one or the other, so we need both to
for broad compatibility.
Use zwp_keyboard_shortcuts_inhibit_manager_v1 to allow SDL applications
to capture system keyboard shortcuts like Alt+Tab when keyboard grab is
enabled via SDL_HINT_GRAB_KEYBOARD.
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.

To reproduce:
1. Run any SDL-based program with a Wayland compositor, orphaning it so that it doesn't have an immediate parent process. (For example, from a terminal, running `supertux2 & disown`.) The program should use the wayland backend, i.e. by setting environment variable SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland.
2. Kill the compositor process.
Results:
- The SDL program will keep running.
Expected results:
- The SDL program should close. (What close should mean here, I'm not sure - is injecting an SDL_Quit the appropriate action when a video driver disconnects?)
Build data:
2019-06-22, hg tip (12901:bf8d9d29cbf1), Linux, can reproduce with sway, weston, and other Wayland oompositors.
This is just in parity with the existing zxdg-shell-unstable-v6 code. Making
the Wayland target robust (and uh, with title bars) is going to take a lot
of work on top of this.
This is meant to be the desktop-enhanced version of wl_shell. Right now we
just match what the existing wl_shell code does, but there are other areas of
functionality available to us now, that we can fill in later.
This uses the "unstable" API, since this is what ships in Ubuntu 17.10 (as
part of Wayland 1.10), but Wayland 1.12 promotes this to stable with extremely
minor changes. We will add support for the stable version when it makes sense
to do so.

Kristian says you can't do it with Wayland, and that going forward, it'll just handle whatever you throw at it anyhow.

So I say we mark it SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGB888, which is what my X11 display currently reports, and leave it at that.

I have implemented Drag and Drop and Clipboard support for Wayland.
Drag and dropping files from nautilus to the testdropfile application seems to work and also copy and paste.

When running this little test program with SDL2 on Wayland it often crashes in SDL_Init.
From a backtrace it is apparent that there is a race condition in creating a xkb_context_ref. Sometimes it is 0x0.
By moving the relevant lines higher up in Wayland_VideoInit (in SDL2-2.0.4/src/video/wayland/SDL_waylandvideo.c:302) this seems to get fixed.
I moved the call to WAYLAND_xkb_context_new() up to before the call to WAYLAND_wl_display_connect().
Here is the test program (just a loop of init and quit), and a backtrace from gdb:
#include <cstdio>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <SDL2/SDL.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <iostream>

for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {

if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) < 0) {
SDL_LogError(SDL_LOG_CATEGORY_APPLICATION,
"Couldn't initialize SDL: %s\n",
SDL_GetError());
return 1;
}
std::cout << "Quit" << std::endl;
SDL_Quit();
}
return 0;
}

Wayland will sometimes send empty resize events (0 width and 0 height) to the client. I have not worked out the exact conditions a client would receive these but I can assume it might be if the window is offscreen or not mapped yet.
This causes issues with some SDL clients as they receive the 0x0 event and unexpected resize event or might not request to resize back to the correct size.
As per the wl_shell Wayland spec configure events are only a suggestion and the client is free to ignore or pick a different size (this is how min/max and fixed aspect ratio is supped to be implemented).
A patch is attached but is just the first iteration and I will fix any issues such as checking for FULLSCREEN/MAXIMIZED or RESIZABLE flags unless someone else fixes this first.
I have update to take into account non resizable and fullscreen windows. Also adding in maximize/restore and title functions for Wayland.
Generate the C protocol files from the protocol XML files installed by
wayland-protocols, and use them to implement support for relative pointer
motions and pointer locking.
Note that at the time, the protocol is unstable and may change in the future.
Any future breaking changes will, however, fail gracefully and result in no
regressions compared to before this patch.
This will be used by Wayland compositors to match the application ID and
.desktop file to the SDL window(s).
Applications can set the SDL_VIDEO_WAYLAND_WMCLASS environemnt variable
early in the process to override using the binary name as a fallback.
Note that we also support the SDL_VIDEO_X11_WMCLASS in the Wayland
backend so that if a program correctly associated the desktop file with
the window under X11, only a newer SDL would be needed for it to work
under Wayland.
