The pointer to the window properties is currently inside the WindowOptional structure, which may or may not exist at any given time. Thus, before accessing those fields, at least need to check whether it exists, potentially need to create it first. Since a pointer is small (in relation to WindowRec) and windows having properties is a pretty common, we can make our life much simpler here by moving the pointer directly into WindowRec, so we don't need extra WindowOptionalRec allocation. This also fixes an analyzer warning on potential NULL dereference issue: | ../dix/property.c: In function ‘dixChangeWindowProperty’: |../dix/property.c:343:37: warning: dereference of NULL ‘*pWin.optional’ [CWE-476] [-Wanalyzer-null-dereference] | 343 | pProp->next = pWin->optional->userProps; | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult <info@metux.net> |

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
