It turns out xdmx currently crashes when any client attempts to use GL
and it has been in such state for about 14 years. There was a patch to
fix the problem [1] 4 years ago, but it never got merged. The last
activity on any bugs referring to xdmx has been more than 4 years ago.
Given such situation, I find it unlikely that anyone is still using xdmx
and just having the code is a drain of resources.

When using DRI3+Present with PRIME render offload, sometimes there is
a mismatch between the stride of the to-be-presented Pixmap and the
frontbuffer. The current code would reject a pageflip present in this
case if atomic modesetting is not enabled, ie. always, as atomic
modesetting is disabled by default due to brokeness in the current
modesetting-ddx.
Fullscreen presents without page flipping however trigger the copy
path as fallback, which causes not only unreliable presentation timing
and degraded performance, but also massive tearing artifacts due to
rendering to the framebuffer without any hardware sync to vblank.
Tearing is extra awful on modesetting-ddx because glamor afaics seems
to use drawing of a textured triangle strip for the copy implementation,
not a dedicated blitter engine. The rasterization pattern creates extra
awful tearing artifacts.
We can do better: According to a tip from Michel Daenzer (thanks!),
at least atomic modesetting capable kms drivers should be able to
reliably change scanout stride during a pageflip, even if atomic
modesetting is not actually enabled for the modesetting client.
This commit adds detection logic to find out if the underlying kms
driver is atomic_modeset_capable, and if so, it no longer rejects
page flip presents on mismatched stride between new Pixmap and
frontbuffer.
We (ab)use a call to drmSetClientCap(ms->fd, DRM_CLIENT_CAP_ATOMIC, 0);
for this purpose. The call itself has no practical effect, as it
requests disabling atomic mode, although atomic mode is disabled by
default. However, the return value of drmSetClientCap() tells us if the
underlying kms driver is atomic modesetting capable: An atomic driver
will return 0 for success. A legacy non-atomic driver will return a
non-zero error code, either -EINVAL for early atomic Linux versions
4.0 - 4.19 (or for non-atomic Linux 3.x and earlier), or -EOPNOTSUPP
for Linux 4.20 and later.
Testing on a MacBookPro 2017 with Intel Kabylake display server gpu +
AMD Polaris11 as prime renderoffload gpu, X-Server master + Mesa 21.0.3
show improvement from unbearable tearing to perfect, despite a stride
mismatch between display gpu and Pixmap of 11776 Bytes vs. 11520
Bytes. That this is correct behaviour was also confirmed by comparing the
behaviour and .check_flip implementation of the patched modesetting-ddx
against the current intel-ddx SNA Present implementation.
Please consider merging this patch before the server-1.21 branch point.
This patch could also be cherry-picked into the server 1.20 branch to
fix the same limitation.

In some scenarios, the Wayland compositor might have more knowledge
than the X11 server and may be able to perform pointer emulation for
touch events better. Add a command-line switch to allow compositors
to turn Xwayland pointer emulation off.

A misplaced error check can cause this failure scenario, and does
so reliably as tested on Ubuntu 21.04 with KDE Plasma 5 desktop
within the first few seconds of login session startup, rendering
VRR under modesetting-ddx unusable:
1. Some X11 client application changes some window property.
2. ms_change_property() is called as part of the property change
handling call chain (client->requestVector[X_ChangeProperty]).
It removes itself temporarily from the call chain - or so it
thinks, hooking up saved_change_property instead.
3. ret = saved_change_property(client) is called and fails
temporarily for some non-critical reason.
4. The misplaced error check returns early (error abort), without
first restoring ms_change_property() as initial X_ChangeProperty
handler in the call chain again.
-> Now ms_change_property() has removed itself permanently from the
property handler call chain for the remainder of the X session
and VRR property changes on windows are no longer handled, ie.
VRR no longer gets enabled/disabled in response to window VRR
property changes.
Place the error check at the proper place, just as it is correctly
done by amdgpu-ddx, and in modesetting-ddx ms_delete_property()
function.
Verified to fix VRR handling with an AMD gpu under KDE desktop
session.
Please consider merging before branching the server 1.21 branch.

The xf86CVTMode() was implemented in a standalone source file because it
was being used for both the xfree86 API and the standalone cvt utility.
Now that the cvt utility is removed (as part of libxcvt) we can move the
small xf86CVTMode() function with the rest of the xf86Modes sources.

of the GPUDevice to the screen it was specified for.
If there is no configuration (default case) the screen number is
still 0 so it doesn't change behaviour.

We are handling two cases here: the active flip or the pending flip.
For the pending flip (event->pending == TRUE), we called
xwl_present_release_pixmap.
For the active flip (event->pending == FALSE), we called
xwl_present_release_event. However, xwl_present_flip_notify_vblank
already unhooked event->vblank.event_queue. So this was effectively the
same as calling xwl_present_release_pixmap.
Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
Use present_vblank_rec::event_queue instead.
The changes in xwl_present_execute shouldn't really be needed, since
we should never hit queue_vblank in present_execute_wait. But let's be
safe rather than sorry, plus this simplifies the code.
Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
Can just call xwl_present_execute directly.
This allows dropping the window member from struct xwl_present_window as
well.
Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
We clear the vblank->pixmap field, so next time xwl_present_execute
falls through to present_execute_post.

This allows for various simplifications.
Use the pointer to the struct memory as the event ID. In contrast to
the SCMD code for Xorg (where pending DRM events cannot be cancelled),
this is safe here, because we can destroy pending Wayland callbacks. So
we can't get a callback with a stale pointer to freed memory.
Remove xwl_present_window::release_list in favour of
present_vblank_rec::window_list.
Remove xwl_present_event::xwl_present_window in favour of
present_vblank_rec::window.
xwl_present_free_event is never called for a NULL pointer anymore, no
need to check.
v2:
* Restore DestroyWindow wrapping order to make sure
present_destroy_window doesn't call xwl_present_abort_vblank.
Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
We can call xwl_present_free_event unconditionally from
xwl_present_abort_vblank, since the sync_callback is already destroyed
in xwl_present_cleanup.

Mainly into xwl_present_check_flip, and call that from
present_wnmd_check_flip_window.
No need for them to be separate anymore.
Acked-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
This will allow eliminating indirections and making the Xwayland Present
code more efficient and easier to follow.
While this technically changes the Xorg video driver ABI, I don't know
of any drivers using the dropped present_wnmd_* symbols, and I doubt a
Xorg driver could make use of them as is anyway.
(As a bonus, Xorg no longer links any Xwayland specific Present code)
v2:
* Wrap DestroyWindow before initializing Present, so that
present_destroy_window runs before xwl_present_cleanup. Avoids crash
due to present_destroy_window calling xwl_present_* functions when
xwl_present_window was already freed. (Olivier Fourdan)

Not sure why we'd need to abandon a pending stream for a pixmap just
because it's no longer a window pixmap. Let's try not to.
Reviewed-by: Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan@redhat.com>
This makes sure RandR events are sent to interested clients as needed.
This was happening implicitly in some cases, but not in others, e.g. if
the root window size didn't change.
If this were to call RRTellChanged more often than necessary in some
cases, that should be harmless, as it only sends events if something
has actually changed since last time.
Should fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1979892 .
v2:
* Call RRTellChanged at the very end of update_screen_size, just in
case.

To avoid an EGL stream in the wrong state, if the window pixmap changed
before the stream was connected, we would still keep the pending stream
but mark it as invalid. Once the callback is received, the pending would
be simply discarded.
But all of this is actually to avoid a bug in egl-wayland, there should
not be any problem with Xwayland destroying an EGL stream while the
compositor is still using it.
With that bug now fixed in egl-wayland 1.1.7, we can safely drop all
that logic from Xwayland EGLstream backend.

When building xserver with slibtool (https://dev.midipix.org/cross/slibtool)
the build will fail.
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldmxconfig
This is because xserver creates libdmxconfig.a internally and then links with
the linker flag -ldmxconfig. However according to automake documentation the
-lfoo linker flags should only be used for external dependencies and all
internal libraries should be linked with the libtool archive file (.la) or
the static archive (.a) when the former is not available.
GNU libtool is far more permissive and happens to silently obscure this issue
while slibtool fails because it instead sees '-L./.libs -ldmxconfig'.
