Allocate enough space to hold the geometry for multiple draw calls,
and use glMapBufferRange() to gradually fill the buffer. Once the
data store is full, it's orphaned and a new one is allocated.
Store the vertex positions and texture coordinates in the same buffer
object. This saves one buffer allocation in every setData() call.
The attributes are also interleaved as they are uploaded into the buffer
to maximize locality of reference.
This patch adds a link() function, along with bindAttributeLocation()
and bindFragDataLocation().
These functions must be called after creating the program, but before
linking it.
A new ExplicitLinking flag must be passed to the constructor to prevent
automatic linking. This is to keep existing code working without
modifications.
Use glGetStringi() to list the extensions when the GL version is 3.0
or greater. glGetString() does not accept the GL_EXTENSIONS token
in an OpenGL core context.
With the removal of BoxSwitch all effects which want mouse events use the
fullscreen input window. The available functionality is too complex both
in EffectsHandler and in the Effects.
With this change only fullscreen input windows are supported and all
effects share the input window. This means there is at maximum one input
window. This simplifies the code in the Effects as they don't have to
keep track of the window they created any more. In EffectsHandler it
means that only one window needs to be created, destroyed and raised.
Also it means that we can properly react on screen size changes which had
been ignored in the past. Also quite some roundtrips to X are no longer
needed as we do not need to query the window geometry when creating the
input window.

The non-composited part handles the showWithX case with the four small
windows. The composited part shows a translucent QWidget with the
FrameSvg as done by the selection effect frame.
Outline connects to the Compositor toggled signal to switch the mode if
compositing gets suspended/resumed. This works fine also in the case that
the switch happens while the outline is shown. To support this Outline
is now a QObject and created with Workspace as a parent.
Given that the Outline handles both cases by itself, the outline effect
is no longer needed and is dropped together with all the hooks into the
effect system.
The define KWIN_SINGLETON adds to a class definition:
public:
static Foo *create(QObject *parent = 0);
static Foo *self() { return s_self; }
protected:
explicit Foo(QObject *parent = 0);
private:
static Foo *s_self;
There is an additional define KWIN_SINGLETON_VARIABLE to set a different
name than s_self.
The define KWIN_SINGLETON_FACTORY can be used to generate the create
method. It expands to:
Foo *Foo::s_self = 0;
Foo *Foo::create(QObject *parent)
{
Q_ASSERT(!s_self);
s_self = new Foo(parent);
return s_self;
}
In addition there are defines to again set a different variable name and
to create an object of another inheriting class.
All the classes currently using this pattern are adjusted to use these
new defines. In a few places the name was adjusted. E.g. in Compositor
the factory method was called createCompositor instead of create.

- The setting is ignored, the decoration always gets a "true" for it
- moving a maximized window requires breaking a "strong" snap (1/16 of screen height - unless you use quick maximization)
- all snapping is done towards the client, not the frame
- QuickTileMode is exported to the decoration (just as the maximizeMode) so that it can fix the bordersize alongside that.
Ownership of decoration textures is moved from SceneOpenGL::Window to
OpenGLPaintRedirector. The PaintRedirector is responsible for updating
the textures whenever they change. For this GLTexture is extended by an
update(QImage, QPoint) method which uses glTexSubImage2D to update only
the changed parts.
The big advantage compared to before is that if e.g. only a button is
animated only the button part is updated instead of the complete deco
part.

Uses query_pict_formats to retrieve all formats and iterates over them to
find the one matching the requested depth. Results are now cached in an
QHash with the depth as key instead of an array using the depth as index.
In case of native graphics system nothing is changed for the moment - the
X11Pixmap-QPixmap bridge is continued to be used.
But in case of graphics system raster (or Qt5) this relationship is no
longer used. Instead the QPixmap is converted to a QImage and the image
bits are put into the created X11Pixmap for this XRenderPicture.
Note: Qt5 uses shm to transfer image data to drawables. This seems
unsuited in this case as it's only a one time transformation.
For Qt5 the native pixmap block needs to be removed and the ctor might be
changed to taking an QImage as argument to make more clear that there is
no mapping from QPixmap to X11Pixmap.
Instead of having a pointer to a QPixmap the offscreen target holds an
xcb_render_picture_t. To make this possible in SceneWindow the tempPixmap
is changed from a QPixmap* to a XRenderPicture*. QPixmap was only used
for convenience.
ScreenShot Effect as only user of the offscreen target is adjusted but
as it needs a QImage, still uses a QPixmap wrapper.
This follows how it is done for OpenGL where the renderRoundBox() got
dropped some time ago.
New implementation implements the box with round corners using xrender
directly instead of using a QPainter on a QPixmap.
EffectsHandlerImpl starts to monitor DBus for the screen being locked and

For each edge an additional "approach" area window is created. When the
mouse enters this approach window, it gets unmapped and a mouse polling
interval is started. If the mouse leaves the approach area again, the
window gets mapped again and the mouse polling is stopped.
During the approaching a signal is emitted with a factor in [0.0,1.0] to
describe how close the mouse is to the edge. 0.0 means far away, 1.0
means triggering the edge. This signal is passed to the effects to allow
using this information. E.g. to provide a glow corner effect or to make
use of it in the cube animation effect to start the animation on desktop
switch.
The main difference is that the activation of an edge is no longer
broadcasted to all effects and scripts, but instead a passed in slot of
the Effect/Script is invoked.
For this the EffectsHandler API is changed to take the Effect as an
argument to (un)reserveElectricBorder. As callback slot the existing
borderActivated is used.
In addition the ScreenEdge monitors the object for beeing destroyed and
unregisters the the edge automatically. This removes the need from the
Effect to call unregister in the dtor.

No effect has ever used these methods and there is no reason why an
effect should use them. Reserve/unreserve is sufficient as the effect
will be notified anyway.
Use xcb to create and manage the X11 backend of Outline. In addition the
used background pixmaps are rendered with XRender instead of using a
QPainter on a QPixmap. This is done because QPixmap is no longer bound to
an X Pixmap.
To create the XRender Picture the available functionality from
kwinxrenderutils is used. To be able to use it in KWin core the compile
option to build without XRender is removed for kwinxrenderutils, but
still supported for effects.
Obviously the port to XCB is not complete as xremderutils itself is still
on XLib.

In effects it's obvious that compositing is enabled, so specifying the
translucent element is no problem.
In tabbox a context property "compositing" is injected which decides
whether "translucent" or "opaque" elements should be used. Here the
translucent elements are only used if the Blur effect is available - for
this a new Effect::Feature Blur is introduced and in addition it is
tested whether the theme provides the translucent element.
Also the masking is adjusted to ensure that only the shadow is not
blurred.
Reason for this change is that Plasma theme seems not always to pick up
whether compositing is used when used from inside KWin. It does not cover
the Desktop Change OSD which uses PlasmaCore.Dialog and there we cannot
(yet) inject that we use compositing.
Overall I'm quite unhappy with this patch and I do hope we can fix it in
the proper place in the lifetime of 4.10 and revert this patch.

The extension handling is removed from kwinglobals and moved into the
xcbutils in KWin core in namespace KWin::Xcb. The motivation for this
change is that the Extensions are only used in KWin core and are marked
as internal. So there is no need to have them in the library.
What remains in Extensions are the non-native pixmaps. This will be
removed once we are on Qt 5 as QPixmap can no longer reference an XPixmap.
The remaining code in kwinglobals also still initialize the XLib versions
of extensions emitting events. It seems like there are no XEvents emitted
if not done so even if the extension is correctly initialized with xcb.
This needs to be removed once the event handling is ported over to xcb.

The methods takes care of creating the atom if it has not already done

As a further convenience the property is automatically removed when the
effect is unloaded, so less things an effect author has to care about.

The ownership for virtual desktops is moved from Workspace into a new
VirtualDesktopManager. The manager is responsible for providing the count
of virtual desktops and keeping track of the currently used virtual
desktop.
All methods related to moving between desktops are also moved from
Workspace to the new manager, though all methods related to Clients on
Virtual Desktops remain in Workspace for the time being. This is to have
the new manager as independent from KWin core as possible.
An rather important change for the handling of virtual desktops is that
the count and the id of a desktop is now an unsinged integer instead of
an integer. The reason for that is that we cannot have a negative count
of desktops as well as it is not possible to be on a desktop with a
negative identifier.
In that regard it is important to remember that a Client can be on a
desktop with a negative identifier. The special value for a Client being
on all desktops is handled by using -1 as a desktop. For the time being
this is not adjusted but instead of comparing the virtual desktop ids one
should prefer to use the convenient methods like isOnDesktop and
isOnAllDesktops. This would allow in future to internally change the
representation for on all desktops.
This method can be used to get the animationTime in case a configuration
class generated through KConfigXT is used. In general the configuration
stores the magic value 0 for a property "duration". This magic value
indicates that a hard-coded default value should be used.
So the common logic to test the stored value for 0 and then either pass
the stored value or the default value to animationTime is encapsulated
in this method in a generic way.
A MyEffect can use it in the following way:
animationTime<MyEffectConfig>(200);

A decoration can provide the AbilityAnnounceAlphaChannel in addition to
AbilityUsesAlphaChannel. If this ability is provided the decoration can
enable/disable the use of the alpha channel through setAlphaEnabled().
The base idea behind this mechanism is to be able to tell the compositor
that currently alpha is not needed. An example is the maximized state in
which the decoration is fully opaque so that there is no need to use the
translucency code path which would render all windows behind the deco.
In addition also the blur effect honors this setting so that behind a
known opaque decoration no blurring is performed.
Oxygen is adjusted to disable translucency in maximized state and Aurorae
is adjusted to allow themes to enable/disable translucency. For Plastik
translucency and with that also blurring is disabled.

Use XDamageReportNonEmpty instead of XDamageReportRawRectangles.
In XDamageReportNonEmpty mode the server generates a single damage
event when the damage state transitions from not-damaged to damaged.
When the compositor is ready to paint the screen, it requests the
damage region for each window and resets the state to not-damaged.
With XCB we can request the damage regions for all windows in a
single roundtrip, making this the preferred mode.
This should reduce the number of wakeups and the time spent
processing damage events between repaints.
Adjustment to reality. KWin has had a dependency on Mesa 8.0 for quite

have been removed.

During detecting the OpenGL capabilities also a recommended compositor
can be set. This recommendation is honoured by the OpenGL based
compositors. That is the SceneOpenGL2 requires a recommendation for at
least OpenGL2 and the SceneOpenGL1 requires at least a recommendation for
OpenGL1. If the driver recommends XRender compositing the SceneOpenGL
performs the existing fallback to XRender.
With this recommendation the hacks in the Scene are removed, e.g. it is
no longer checked whether the driver is software emulation as that is
provided through the recommendation.
To overrule the recommendation the environment variable KWIN_COMPOSE is
extended by the values O1 and O2 to enforce either OpenGL 1 or OpenGL 2.
This overwrites all other checks. As a side-effect this allows now to run
KWin on the llvmpipe:

If the build option is enabled KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_1 is passed as a compile

This compile flag is meant to replace the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGLES. So far code
has been ifdefed for special behavior of OpenGL ES 2.0 and to remove
fixed functionality calls which are not available in OpenGL ES 2.0.
With this build flag the fixed functionality calls which are only used in
the OpenGL1 Compositor can be removed and keeping the KWIN_HAVE_OPENGLES
for the real differences between OpenGL 2.x and OpenGL ES 2.0.
E.g. a call like glColor4f should be in an
glColor4f(1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
while a call like glPolygonMode should be in an
glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE);
Building for OpenGL ES 2.0 of course implies that KWIN_HAVE_OPENGL_1 is

OpenGL is properly working if there is a direct rendering context.
If LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is set VirtualBox falls back to Mesa's software
rasterizer. So in order to get OpenGL the driver is now whitelisted in
the opengltest.
GLPlatform is extended to recognize the VirtualBox driver and has new
methods to report whether it is a virtual machine and VirtualBox. The
detection is rather limited as we don't get access to the underlying
hardware, so we do not know whether the features are really supported.
We need to trust the driver here in announcing the right extensions.
The driver does not provide glxQueryDrawable although it is part of
GLX 1.3. A hack is added in the glxbackend to set the function pointer to
NULL. This can unfortunately not be done in glxResolveFunctions() as
QueryDrawable seems not to be provided by an extension (at least not
listed in the OpenGL registry) and getProcAddress resolves a function but
it only prints an OpenGL Warning to stderr.
As a note: the driver reports that it is using XSHM for
GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap.

According to the OpenGL ABI for Linux GLX 1.3 is a minimum requirement.
Therefore we do not need to resolve the symbols which are present in that
version.
KWin did always require at least 1.3, for all the resolved functions
there were checks in the Scene, but they might have been incorrect.
Instead now the GLX version is checked and OpenGL compositing is blocked
if there is not at least GLX 1.3.

glBlendColor has been added to OpenGL 1.2 which means it is part of
the OpenGL ABI defined for Linux.
See http://www.opengl.org/registry/ABI/ section 3.4.
The macro GL_RESOLVE_WITH_EXT was fundamentally broken as it tried to
resolve a symbol first by it's name and then by the extension name if
the returned pointer is null.
From GLX spec:
"A non-NULL return value for glXGetProcAddress does not guarantee that an
extension function is actually supported at runtime. The client must also query
glGetString(GL EXTENSIONS) or glXQueryExtensionsString to determine if an
extension is supported by a particular context."
This macro is now reworked to be used only in case the symbol name does
not match our function name. E.g. glUniform1f vs glUniform1fARB.
The resolving itself also had quite some issues as:
* in same cases function pointers are not nulled
* in same cases only the arb or only the ext is checked
* in same cases the wrong extension is checked
This is now reworked to always check first the ARB extension if available
then the EXT extension and if both are not available the pointers are set
to NULL.
The Egl backend is decoupled from the OpenGL ES build option which makes
it possible to use it as a replacement for glx.
To make this possible a new build flag is added when egl is available at
compile time and any egl specific code is now ifdefed with this flag
instead of the gles flag. In addition at runtime a windowing system enum
value is passed to the various detect methods to have egl/glx specific
detection for e.g. function pointer resolving.
By default egl is used if compiled with OpenGL ES, otherwise glx is used.
But in the non-gles case the windowing system can be selected through the
new environment variable KWIN_OPENGL_INTERFACE. Setting this variable to
"egl" the EglOnXBackend is used.

The ShaderBinder class can be used for the case that a block of code
should be executed with a given Shader being bound. This is useful for
all the cases where there is a if-block for OpenGL2 execution with a
Shader being pushed in the first line to the ShaderManager and popped in
the last line of the block. With the helper this can be simplified to:
ShaderBinder binder(myCustomShader);
or
ShaderBinder binder(ShaderManager::GenericShader);
The ctor of ShaderBinder pushes the given Shader to the stack and once
the helper goes out of scope it will be popped again from the stack.
In addition the helper can take care of OpenGL 1 compositing, that is it
just does nothing. So it can also be used where there is a shared OpenGL1
and OpenGL2 code path where the Shader should only be pushed in OpenGL2.
This basically removes all the checks for the compositing type before
pushing/popping a Shader to the stack.
REVIEW: 106521
The main usage of ShaderManager::isValid was to have OpenGL2 specific
code pathes. Now we have an actual OpenGL2Compositing type and we know
that the ShaderManager is valid if we have this compositing type and we
know that it is not valid on OpenGL1Compositing. This gives us a much
better check and allows us to use the isValid method just for where we
want to check whether the shaders compiled successfully.
In addition some effects require OpenGL2, so we do not need to check
again that the ShaderManager is valid. Such usages are removed.
The CompositingType enum turns into flags and two new values are
introduced: OpenGL1Compositing and OpenGL2Compositing.
Those new values are or-ed to OpenGLCompositing so that a simple check
for the flag OpenGLCompositing works in case of one of those two new
values. To make the generic check for OpenGL compositing easier a method
in EffectsHandler is introduced to just check for this.
The scenes now return either OpenGL1Compositing or OpenGL2Compositing
depending on which Scene implementation. None returns OpenGLCompositing.
Results in cleaner changes.

SceneOpenGL turns into an abstract class with two concrete subclasses:
* SceneOpenGL1
* SceneOpenGL2
It provides a factory method which first creates either the GLX or EGL
backend which is passed to a static supported() method in the concrete
sub classes. These method can test whether the backend is sufficient to
be used for the OpenGL version in question. E.g. the OpenGL 2 scene
checks whether the context is direct.
The actual rendering is moved into the subclasses with specific OpenGL 1
and OpenGL 2 code. This should make the code more readable and requires
less checks whether a Shader is bound. This is now known through the
Scene: the OpenGL1 scene will never have a shader bound, the OpenGL2 scene
will always have a shader bound.
To make this more reliable the ShaderManager is extended by a disable
method used by SceneOpenGL1 to ensure that the ShaderManager will never
be used. This also obsoletes the need to read the KWin configuration
whether legacy GL is enabled. The check is moved into the supported
method of the OpenGL2 scene.

The implementation consists of a class in libkwineffects.
There are some slight modifications in the compositor. Regions for
different outputs are drawn at different times.
Currently only per output color correction is implemented. However, the
grounds are prepared for implementing per window color correction
easily.
The ColorCorrection class needs to communicate via D-Bus with a KDED
module, KolorServer, which is a part of KolorManager.
The only visible part for the user consists of a check box in the
advanced tab for the compositing KCM.
The actual correction is done by injecting a piece of code in the
fragment shader, code that does a 3D lookup into a special color lookup
texture. The data for these textures is obtained from KolorServer. All
D-Bus calls are async.
Currently the GL Matrix Stack is also used with OpenGL 2.
That is pushMatrix, multMatrix and popMatrix are executed
although this does not influence the rendering at all. The
OpenGL 1 matrices are not passed to the shaders.
With this change the calls to the matrix stack are no longer
executed if the Shader based backend is used. This means we
have a few less matrix multiplications in the rendering.
Mostly affects a few effects which have not yet completely be
