When performing a modeset, the DRM backend will request a page-flip
event. However frame_pending wasn't set to true, so any subsequent
wlr_output_schedule_frame calls would imemdiately trigger a synthetic
frame event, asking the compositor to submit a new frame. Committing the
new frame fails with "a page-flip is already pending" error in the DRM
backend.
When an output is disabled one last pageflip will happen to disable it.
Currently this pageflip causes a frame event.
Since the output is disabled we don't want to send this frame event.
I'm not sure what this was used for, but it's not used by libwayland.
Setting _WAYLAND_DISPLAY would result in the Wayland backend being
picked but would ignore the actual value of the env variable.
When starting a compositor that's using the "direct" session backend,
wlroots needs to handle calls to `drmSetMaster()` and `drmDropMaster()`.
As both calls used to require `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`, wlroots thus simply
refused starting in case the process doesn't enjoy evelated privileges.
Permission rules have changed since linux.git commit 45bc3d26c95a (drm:
rework SET_MASTER and DROP_MASTER perm handling, 2020-03-19). As a
result, starting with Linux v5.8, both ioctls will now also succeed if
the process is currently or has been the DRM master. And as the first
process to open render nodes will become the DRM master automatically,
this effectively means that process elevation is not strictly required
in all setups anymore.
So let's drop the `geteuid() != 0` permission check to allow those new
rules to do their magic.
bad1e9afa8 ("session: Add libseat backend") introduced a change to to
how session backends initialize, but failed to update the FreeBSD
specific version of the direct backend accordingly.
Closes: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2376
get_drm_prop_blob does not set path_len if it returns NULL. Check the
return value before path_len to avoid reading uninitialized memory.
(Granted, this doesn't change the logic at all, but it does make
Valgrind a bit happier.)
drm_connector_set_cursor wasn't checking the return value of the
drm_surface_make_current call. On failure, this results in a failed
assertion in wlr_renderer_begin (because no rendering context is
current).
The output backend API is now mostly state-less thanks to the atomic
hooks (commit and test). There is one exception though: attach_render.
This function makes the rendering context current. However sometimes the
compositor might decide not to render after attach_render (e.g. when
there's nothing new to render to the back buffer). Thus
wlr_output_rollback has been introduced to revert the pending state.
Because the output backend API is mostly state-less, the only thing
wlr_output_impl.rollback needs to do is revert the current rendering
context. Rename the function to rollback_render to make this clear. Add
a check in the common wlr_output code to only call rollback_render when
attach_buffer has been previously called.
On the long term, we'll be able to remove attach_render and
rollback_render together.
This commit makes `get_current_time_msec` correctly return milliseconds
as opposed to microseconds. It also considers the value of `tv_sec`, so
we don't lose occasionally go back in time by one second. Finally, the
function is moved into `util/time.cc` so that it can be reused elsewhere
without having to consider these pitfalls.
This patch fixes this failure:

When the mode, status or buffer hasn't changed, drm_connector_commit was
a no-op. Because of this individual changes to the gamma LUT or adaptive
sync status were ignored (if committed without a buffer).
Instead, perform a commit to apply the changes.
A test commit doesn't apply the pending state.
The CRTC state will be populated again if the compositor decides to
perform a regular commit afterwards.
Previously, we only had the pending state (crtc->pending, crtc->mode and
crtc->active). This causes issues when a commit fails: the pending state
is left as-is, and the next commit may read stale data from it.
This will also cause issues when implementing test-only commits: we need
to rollback the pending CRTC state after a test-only commit.
Introduce separate pending and current CRTC states. Properly update the
current state after a commit.
retry_pageflip is now dead code, since drm_connector_start_renderer
isn't called anymore. It was previously called when enabling an output.
The name "retry_pageflip" was a little confusing because the function
retried a modeset and the timer wasn't set up while performing a simple
page-flip.
Let's just remove this altogether for now. We can discuss whether it's
worth it to bring it back. Should we only do it on failed page-flips?
Should we only do it on EBUSY?
