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.
In order to support compositors running as systemd user units without display manager,
a mechanism for specifying session ID exactly must exist.
Checking for `XDG_SESSION_ID` mimics loginctl behaviour e95be7def2/src/login/loginctl.c (L856).
"/org/freedesktop/login1/seat/self" path triggers seat-finding code path in logind,
which currently relies on getting the session based on caller's PID.
This behaviour is deprecated in logind as it doesn't work eg. with systemd user units,
which run outside of user session.
We check for "seat0" in logind_change_vt() already as introduced in 47985d2dc5,
so hard-coding it here is not a problem, otherwise sd_session_get_seat() could be used.
This appears to be a quick fix for compositors freezing when a dock is
disconnected. Disconnection of the dock is causing `pause_device` for
the DRM devices associated with the dock. Since these devices major
number is `DRM_MAJOR`, the session was being set to inactive. This just
makes it so the session is not set to inactive when the device's state
is `gone`.
When a wlroots compositor runs as a systemd user unit there is no
session associated with the compositor process. Instead we need to
attach to an active and graphical user session.
This change first looks for an available session for the process, and if
there isn't one falls back to display in the oldest available graphical
session.
This work was modeled after a similar change to mutter -
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/150.
Sessions can now be retrieved from a backend in a more general manner.
Multi-backend gets back its `session` field that contains the session
if one was created, removing the interfacing from multi backend with the
drm backend directly. This adds the possibility to use sessions even
without the drm backend.
It additionally fixes the bug that 2 session objects got created when
WLR_BACKENDS were set to "libinput,drm".
To allow vt switching without drm backend (and drm fd) on logind, start
listening to PropertiesChanged signals from dbus and parse the session
"Active" property when no master fd was created (this does not change
current drm backend behaviour in any way).
