Up until now, wlr_backend_autocreate() created the wlr_session and
then stuffed it into struct wlr_multi_backend so that compositors
can grab it later.
This is an abuse of wlr_multi_backend and the wlr_backend API:
wlr_backend_get_session() and wlr_multi_backend.session only exist
to accomodate the needs of wlr_backend_autocreate(). What's more,
the DRM and libinput backends don't implement
wlr_backend_impl.get_session.
Instead, return the struct wlr_session to the compositor in the
wlr_backend_autocreate() call. wlr_backend_get_session() will be
removed in the next commit.
This callback allowed compositors to customize the EGL config used by
the renderer. However with renderer v6 EGL configs aren't used anymore.
Instead, buffers are allocated via GBM and GL FBOs are rendered to. So
customizing the EGL config is a no-op.
Remove the wlr_linux_dmabuf_v1_create call. wlr_renderer_init_wl_display
will take care of creating the linux-dmabuf global if the OpenGL
implementation supports it.
Due to the way the wlr_output API was changed, these examples would
never get a frame event to start the rendering loop. We now commit the
outputs to start it.
The documentation for wayland-server.h says:
> Use of this header file is discouraged. Prefer including
> wayland-server-core.h instead, which does not include the server protocol
> header and as such only defines the library PI, excluding the deprecated API
> below.
Replacing wayland-server.h with wayland-server-core.h allows us to drop the
WL_HIDE_DEPRECATED declaration.
This is necessary for direct scan-out and other upcoming features. This patch
changes the output API to look like the wl_surface API.
Outputs now have some double-buffered state: the frame to be submitted
(currently only wlr_renderer frames are supported) and the damaged region.
To attach a pending frame, use wlr_output_attach_render. To set the pending
damaged region, use wlr_output_set_damage.
To submit the pending state, call wlr_output_commit. This will submit the
pending frame to the backend.
To migrate from the old API to the new one:
- Replace wlr_output_make_current calls by wlr_output_attach_render
- Replace wlr_output_swap_buffers calls by wlr_output_set_damage and
wlr_output_commit
