Sway has two knobs to control idling:
- seat idle_inhibit: when the seat is active (ie. not idle), this
extends the active state. When the seat is idle, this is
ignored.
- seat idle_wake: when the seat is idle, this wakes up the seat.
When the seat is active, this is ignored.
The motivation for the deprecation is two-fold:
- The concept of "seat idle state" is ill-defined. Each idle-notify-v1
client will pass a different idle timeout. With the old logic, a
seat was declared idle if and only if all idle-notify-v1 timeouts have
expired. However, if only a portion of the timeouts have expired,
then some clients would wake up, and the rest would stay active.
This is inconsistent with the definition of idle_inhibit/idle_wake:
idle_inhibit was used for clients which are waking up.
- It never worked properly with the new idle-notify-v1 protocol
and no-one noticed. Only the legacy KDE idle protocol is taken
into account, but that protocol is not used anymore.
Deferred commands are only run once, during sway startup. This means
that deferring seat attachment based on whether we are reading the
config prevents devices from being reattached to the correct seat during
a config reload. Instead, only defer if the config is not yet active.
Fixes#6048.
This emits frame events for the seat_cmd_cursor subcommands. The
wl_pointer frame event are required to notify clients when to process
the events. It will now be emitted after cursor movement, button press,
button release, and axis events.
Remove some unnecessary brackets in an error condition check identified
during review of the shortcuts inhibitor command code (#5021).

Add a command to influence keyboard shortcuts inhibitors. In its current
form it can be used to activate, deactivate or toggle an existing
inhibitor on the surface currently receiving input. This can be used to
define an escape shortcut such as:
bindsym --inhibited $mod+Escape seat - shortcuts_inhibitor deactivate
It also allows the user to configure a per-seat default of whether
keyboard inhibitors are honoured by default (the default) or not. Using
the activate/toggle command they can then enable the lingering inhibitor
at a later time of their choosing.
As a side effect this allows to specifically address a named seat for
actions as well, whatever use-case that might serve.

This removes `seat <seat> keyboard_grouping keymap` and replaces it with
`seat <seat> keyboard_grouping smart`. The smart keyboard grouping will
group based on both the keymap and repeat info. The reasoning for this
is that deciding what the repeat info should be for a group is either
arbitrary or non-deterministic when multiple keyboards in the group have
repeat info configured (unless somehow exposed to the user in a
reproducible uniquely identifiable fashion).
This adds seat configuration options which can be used to configure what
events affect the idle behavior of sway.
An example use-case is mobile devices: you would remove touch from the
list of idle_wake events. This allows the phone to stay on while you're
actively using it, but doesn't wake from idle on touch events while it's
sleeping in your pocket.
A wlr_keyboard_group allows for multiple keyboard devices to be
combined into one logical keyboard. This is useful for keyboards that
are split into multiple input devices despite appearing as one physical
keyboard in the user's mind.
This adds support for wlr_keyboard_groups to sway. There are two
keyboard groupings currently supported, which can be set on a per-seat
basis. The first keyboard grouping is none, which disables all grouping
and provides no functional change. The second is keymap, which groups
the keyboard devices in the seat by their keymap. With this grouping,
the effective layout and repeat info is also synced across keyboard
devices in the seat. Device specific bindings will still be executed as
normal, but everything else related to key and modifier events will be
handled by the keyboard group's keyboard.
New 'seat <name> xcursor_theme <theme> [<size>]' command that
configures the default xcursor theme.
The default seat's xcursor theme is also propagated to XWayland, and
exported through the XCURSOR_THEME and XCURSOR_SIZE environment
variables. This is done every time the default seat's configuration is
changed.
If a seat does not exist in seat_cmd_cursor, do not create it. A seat
without any attachments is useless since it will have no capabilities.
This changes `input_manager_get_seat` to have an additional argument
that dictates whether or not to create the seat if it does not exist.
This changes the `pointer_constraint` command to be a subcommand of seat
to allow for per-seat settings. The current implementation that is not a
seat subcommand will only operate on the current seat and will segfault
in the config due to `config->handler_context.seat` only being set at
runtime.
This also allows for the wildcard identifier to be used to alter the
pointer constraint settings on all seats and allows for the setting to
be merged with the rest of the seat config.
Patch tested by compiling with `__attribute__ ((format (printf, 2, 3)))`
applied to `cmd_results_new`.
String usage constants have been converted from pointers to arrays when
encountered. General handler format strings were sometimes modified to
include the old input string, especially for unknown command errors.
This modifies `seat_cmd_cursor` to utilize `get_mouse_button` when
parsing mouse buttons for the `press` and `release` operations. All x11
buttons, button event names, and button event codes are supported.
For x11 axis buttons, `dispatch_cursor_axis` is used instead of
`dispatch_cursor_button`. However the `press`/`release` state is ignored
and the either axis event is processed. This also removes support for
`left` and `right` in favor of `BTN_LEFT` and `BTN_RIGHT`.
evdev-proto is installed by a dependency, so some files have been missed:
In file included from ../sway/input/cursor.c:3:
/usr/local/include/libevdev-1.0/libevdev/libevdev.h:30:10: fatal error: 'linux/input.h' file not found
#include <linux/input.h>

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Instead of simulating events on the current seat, this makes it so
seat_cmd_cursor respects the seat name provided by `seat <name> cursor
<args>`. It also adds support for simulating events on all seats when
the wildcard is given.
This also defers the command when reading the config, which allows the
user to set the initial position of the cursor when the command is
included in the config file.
This makes seat configs work like output and input configs do. This also
adds support for wildcard seat configs. A seat config is still created
in the main seat command handler, but instead of creating a new one in
the subcommands and destroying the main seat command's instance, the
seat subcommands modify the main one. The seat config is then stored,
where it is merged appropriately. The seat config returned from
`store_seat_config` is then applied. When attempting to apply a wildcard
seat config, a seat specific config is queried for and if found, that is
used. Otherwise, the wildcard config is applied directly.
Additionally, instead of adding input devices to the default seat
directly when there is no seat configs, a seat config for the default
seat is created with only fallback set to true, which is more explicit.
It also fixes an issue where running a seat command at runtime (with no
seat config in the sway config), would result in all input devices being
removed from the default seat and leaving sway in an unusable state.
Also, instead of checking for any seat config, the search is for a seat
config with a fallback option seat. This makes it so if there are only
seat configs with fallback set to -1, the default seat is still created
since there is no explicit notion on what to do regarding fallbacks.
However, if there is even a single fallback 0, then the default seat is
not used as a fallback. This will be needed for seat subcommands like
hide_cursor where the user may only want to set that property without
effecting anything else.
This commit changes the meaning of sway_container so that it only refers
to layout containers and view containers. Workspaces, outputs and the
root are no longer known as containers. Instead, root, outputs,
workspaces and containers are all a type of node, and containers come in
two types: layout containers and view containers.
In addition to the above, this implements type safe variables. This
means we use specific types such as sway_output and sway_workspace
instead of generic containers or nodes. However, it's worth noting that
in a few places places (eg. seat focus and transactions) referring to
them in a generic way is unavoidable which is why we still use nodes in
some places.
If you want a TL;DR, look at node.h, as well as the struct definitions
for root, output, workspace and container. Note that sway_output now
contains a workspaces list, and workspaces now contain a tiling and
floating list, and containers now contain a pointer back to the
workspace.
There are now functions for seat_get_focused_workspace and
seat_get_focused_container. The latter will return NULL if a workspace
itself is focused. Most other seat functions like seat_get_focus and
seat_set_focus now accept and return nodes.
In the config->handler_context struct, current_container has been
replaced with three pointers: node, container and workspace. node is the
same as what current_container was, while workspace is the workspace
that the node resides on and container is the actual container, which
may be NULL if a workspace itself is focused.
The global root_container variable has been replaced with one simply
called root, which is a pointer to the sway_root instance.
The way outputs are created, enabled, disabled and destroyed has
changed. Previously we'd wrap the sway_output in a container when it is
enabled, but as we don't have containers any more it needs a different
approach. The output_create and output_destroy functions previously
created/destroyed the container, but now they create/destroy the
sway_output. There is a new function output_disable to disable an output
without destroying it.
Containers have a new view property. If this is populated then the
container is a view container, otherwise it's a layout container. Like
before, this property is immutable for the life of the container.
Containers have both a `sway_container *parent` and
`sway_workspace *workspace`. As we use specific types now, parent cannot
point to a workspace so it'll be NULL for containers which are direct
children of the workspace. The workspace property is set for all
containers, except those which are hidden in the scratchpad as they have
no workspace.
In some cases we need to refer to workspaces in a container-like way.
For example, workspaces have layout and children, but when using
specific types this makes it difficult. Likewise, it's difficult for a
container to get its parent's layout when the parent could be another
container or a workspace. To make it easier, some helper functions have
been created: container_parent_layout and container_get_siblings.
container_remove_child has been renamed to container_detach and
container_replace_child has been renamed to container_replace.
`container_handle_fullscreen_reparent(con, old_parent)` has had the
old_parent removed. We now unfullscreen the workspace when detaching the
container, so this function is simplified and only needs one argument
now.
container_notify_subtree_changed has been renamed to
container_update_representation. This is more descriptive of its
purpose. I also wanted to be able to call it with whatever container was
changed rather than the container's parent, which makes bubbling up to
the workspace easier.
There are now state structs per node thing. ie. sway_output_state,
sway_workspace_state and sway_container_state.
The focus, move and layout commands have been completely refactored to
work with the specific types. I considered making these a separate PR,
but I'd be backporting my changes only to replace them again, and it's
easier just to test everything at once.
