The "dpms" command refers to VESA Display Power Management
Signaling, a deprecated standard. It's superseded by VESA DPM.
Instead of tying out command name to a particular standard, use the
neutral term "power".
Try to gain SCHED_RR (round-robin) realtime scheduling privileges before
starting the server. This requires CAP_SYS_NICE on Linux systems.
We additionally register a pthread_atfork callback which resets the
scheduling class back to SCHED_OTHER (the Linux system default).
Due to CAP_SYS_NICE, setting RLIMIT_RTPRIO has no effect on the process
as documented within man 7 sched (from Linux):
Privileged (CAP_SYS_NICE) threads ignore the RLIMIT_RTPRIO limit;
as with older kernels, they can make arbitrary changes to
scheduling policy and priority. See getrlimit(2) for further
information on RLIMIT_RTPRIO
Note that this requires the sway distribution packagers to set the
CAP_SYS_NICE capability on the sway binary.
Supersedes #6992
This makes it possible to hint to the renderer and backends how many
bits per channel the buffers that the compositor draws windows onto
should have. Renderers and backends may deviate from this if they
do not support the formats with higher bit depth.
As of 66343839b1, sway now uses a
libdrm header. Add this dependency to the build system so headers from
it can be used on systems where pkg-config is required to find them.
Add a separate per-view shortcuts_inhibitor command that can be used
with criteria to override the per-seat defaults. This allows to e.g.
disable shortcuts inhibiting globally but enable it for specific,
known-good virtualization and remote desktop software or, alternatively,
to blacklist that one slightly broken piece of software that just
doesn't seem to get it right but insists on trying.
Add a flag to sway_view and handling logic in the input manager that
respects that flag if configured but falls back to per-seat config
otherwise. Add the actual command but with just enable and disable
subcommands since there's no value in duplicating the per-seat
activate/deactivate/toggle logic here. Split the inhibitor retrieval
helper in two so we can use the backend half in the command to retrieve
inhibitors for a specific surface and not just the currently focused
one. Extend the manual page with documentation of the command and
references to its per-seat sibling and usefulness with criteria.

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 enables/disables adaptive synchronization on the output.
For now, the default is disabled because it might cause flickering on
some hardware if clients don't submit frames at regular enough
intervals. In the future an "auto" option will only enable adaptive sync
if a fullscreen client opts-in via a Wayland protocol.
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.
Sway has basic support for drawing tablets, but does not expose
properties such as pressure sensitivity. This implements the wlr tablet
v2 protocol, providing tablet events to Wayland clients.
This adds a libinput_config change type to the input event for when
the libinput config for a device changes
In order for this to be possible to track, the libinput config code
had to be refactored. It is now extracted into a separate file to
isolate it from the rest of the input management code.
Adds a new commend "xkb_file", which constructs the internal
xkb_keymap from a xkb file rather than an RMLVO configuration.
This allows greater flexibility when specifying xkb configurations.
An xkb file can be dumped with the xkbcomp program.
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.
The new upstream is https://github.com/swaywm/swaybg
This commit also refactors our use of gdk-pixbuf a bit, since the only
remaining reverse dependency is swaybar tray support.
This implements the following command to set/unset a user idle
inhibitor for a view:
`inhibit_idle focus|fullscreen|open|none|visible`
The modes are as follows:
- focus: inhibited when the view is focused by any seat
- fullscreen: inhibited when the view is fullscreen (or a descendant of
a fullscreen container) and is visible on any output
- open: inhibited until the view is closed or the inhibitor is unset or
changed
- none: unsets any user set idle inhibitors for the view
- visible: inhibited when the view is visible on any output
This should have no effect on idle inhibitors set by the applications
themselves and those should still work as intended.
Since this operates on the view in the handler context, it is possible
to set it on the currently focused view, on any existing view with
criteria, or for any future view with for_window.
Many laptop screens report unknown subpixel order. Allow users to manually set subpixel hinting to work around this.

This commit adds support for laptop lid and tablet
mode switches as provided by evdev/libinput and
handled by wlroots.
Adds a new bindswitch command with syntax:
bindswitch <switch>:<state> <command>
Where <switch> is one of:
tablet for WLR_SWITCH_TYPE_TABLET_MODE
lid for WLR_SWITCH_TYPE_LID
<state> is one of:
on for WLR_SWITCH_STATE_ON
off for WLR_SWITCH_STATE_OFF
toggle for WLR_SWITCH_STATE_TOGGLE
(Note that WLR_SWITCH_STATE_TOGGLE doesn't map to
libinput and will trigger at both on and off events)
This introduces a `default` seat operation which is used when no mouse
buttons are being held. This means there is now always a seat operation
in progress. It allows us to separate `default` code from the standard
cursor management code.
The sway_seatop_impl struct has gained callbacks `axis`, `rebase` and
`end`, and lost callbacks `finish` and `abort`. `axis` and `rebase` are
only used by the default seatop. `end` is called when a seatop is being
replaced by another one and allows the seatop to free any resources,
though no seatop currently needs to do this. `finish` is no longer
required, as each seatop can gracefully finish in their `button`
callback. And `abort` is not needed, as calling `end` would achieve the
same thing. The struct has also gained a bool named allow_set_cursor
which allows the client to set a new cursor during `default` and `down`
seatops.
Seatops would previously store which button they were started with and
stop when that button was released. This behaviour is changed so that it
only ends once all buttons are released. So you can start a drag with
$mod+left, then click and hold right, release left and it'll continue
dragging while the right button is held.
The motion callback now accepts dx and dy. Most seatops don't use this
as they store the cursor position when the seatop is started and compare
it with the current cursor position. This approach doesn't make sense
for the default seatop though, hence why dx and dy are needed.
The pressed_buttons array has been moved from the sway_cursor struct to
the default seatop's data. This is only used for the default seatop to
check bindings. The total pressed button count remains in the
sway_cursor struct though, because all the other seatops check it to
know if they should end.
The `down` seatop no longer has a `moved` property. This was used to
track if the cursor moved and to recheck focus_follows_mouse, but seems
to work without it.
The logic for focus_follows_mouse has been refactored. As part of this
I've removed the call to wlr_seat_keyboard_has_grab as we don't appear
to use keyboard grabs.
The functions for handling relative motion, absolute motion and tool
axis have been changed. Previously the handler functions were
handle_cursor_motion, handle_cursor_motion_absolute and
handle_tool_axis. The latter two both called cursor_motion_absolute.
Both handle_cursor_motion and cursor_motion_absolute did very similar
things. These are now simplified into three handlers and a single common
function called cursor_motion. All three handlers call cursor_motion. As
cursor_motion works with relative distances, the absolute and tool axis
handlers convert them to relative first.
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.
This modifies `bar_cmd_tray_bindsym` to use `get_mouse_bindsym` for
parsing mouse buttons. This also introduces `bar_cmd_tray_bindcode`,
which will use `get_mouse_bindcode` for parsing mouse buttons. Like with
sway bindings, the two commands are encapsulated in a single file to
maximize shared code.
This also modifies tray bindings to work off of events codes rather than
x11 buttons, which allows for any mouse buttons to be used.
For `get_bar_config`, `event_code` has been added to the `tray_bindings`
section and will include to event code for the button. If the event code
can be mapped to a x11 button, `input_code` will still be the x11 button
number. Otherwise, `input_code` will be `0`.
Adds the bar subcommand `status_padding <padding>` which allows setting
the padding used for swaybar. If `status_padding` is set to `0`, blocks
will be able to take up the full height of the bar.
