The Script class has a DBus API we want to export. At some point this
has got broken and the run method is not exported.
It's a bit messy with script subclasses also having other invokables
that we want to export to scripts, so an adaptor is used to keep things
separated.
The interface name has technically changed, but KWin was doing something
weird and using the same interface names for the manager. Fortunately
calling Plasma code doesn't specify an interface so this still works.
On Wayland, when the compositor sends a screenshot to the requesting
app, it encodes the screenshot as a PNG image and sends the encoded data
over the pipe. The requesting app (Spectacle) then needs to decode the
data.
The issue is that encoding PNG images is not cheap. This is the main
reason why Spectacle is shown with a huge delay after you press the
PrtScr key.
In order to fix the latency issue, we need to transfer raw image data.
Unfortunately, the current dbus api of the screenshot is too cluttered
and the best option at the moment is to start with a clean slate.
This change prepares the screenshot effect for versioned dbus interface.
Most of existing dbus logic was moved out in a separate class. In order
to schedule screen shots, the screenshot effect got some new API.
QFuture<QImage> scheduleScreenShot(window, flags)
QFuture<QImage> scheduleScreenShot(area, flags)
QFuture<QImage> scheduleScreenShot(screen, flags)
If a dbus interface needs to take a screenshot, it needs to call one of
the overloaded scheduleScreenShot() functions. Every overload returns a
QFuture object that can be used for querying the result.
This change also introduces "sink" and "source" objects in the dbus api
implementation to simplify handling of QFuture objects.
Note that the QFutureInterface is undocumented, so if you use it, you do
it on your own risk. However, since Qt 5.15 is frozen for non-commercial
use and some other Plasma projects already use QFutureInterface, this
is not a big concern. For what it's worth, in Qt 6, there's the QPromise
class, which is equivalent to the QFutureInterface class.

This provides the compositor a way to indicate what output is being
rendered. The effects such as the screenshot can check the provided
screen object in order to function as expected.
If the file descriptor of the DRM device is greater than FD_SETSIZE, the
stack will be corrupted. However, it is highly unlikely that we ever hit
this case because DRM devices are opened at startup of kwin, so the file
descriptors should small.
In order to prevent the potential stack corruption, this change replaces
the usage of select() with poll().
Unlike select(), the api of poll() is much more sensible. Back 20 or so
years ago the main argument against poll() was that it's not implemented
by all platforms. But, nowadays, it's supported on all major platforms.
This is a minor regression that was introduced with the refactoring of
Toplevel::opacity().
Previously, neither X11Client nor Unmanaged had to explicitly initialize
the opacity because it was queried from the net info object in
Toplevel::opacity().
With the refactored version, X11-specific opacity code was removed from
the Toplevel class. When starting to manage a window, the opacity must
be explicitly initialized.
BUG: 432744
-listen <fd> option is deprecated in favor of the -listenfd option. This
change makes kwin query whether Xwayland supports the -listenfd option
at build time. If the pkg-config file is missing, we'll use the old listen
option.
Some old platforms don't have atomic integer supports for 64-bit wise
integer.
As indicated in GPUVis:
// Erase all knowledge of this ctx so it can be reused
We can reuse numbers after end_ctx, so with we should be fine with
32-bit integer.
Let's use a 32 bit integer for context.
bind(2) expects its second parameters is a "const struct sockaddr*",
let's cast the "struct sockaddr_un*" to "struct sockaddr*" before
passing into bind(2).
SUN_LEN is a BSD extension that also implemented by GNU, let's define
_DEFAULT_SOURCE before including "sys/un.h".
When the monitor is created, the surface may already have child
sub-surfaces. The childSubSurfaceAdded signal won't be emitted for them,
we need to handle this case explicitly.
BUG: 433511
FIXED-IN: 5.21.2
In QJSEngine, QRect is an Object, which is correct. This means that we
cannot use simple assignment operator to copy geometries, we need to use
standard ways to copy Objects, such as Object.assign() or the spread
operator, which is not available in QJSEngine yet.
Summary:
QScriptEngine is deprecated for years and suffers bitrot.
Plasma hit one super major bug with it in 5.11.0 and has now ported
away.
Main porting notes:
- creating low level functions no longer exists
The old global functions are exposed on the ScriptedEffect instance
and then the QJSValue wrappers of the globalObject are modified to
trampoline the methods at a wrapper level.
- We can then use QJSEngine to automatically do argument error checking
rather than unmarshalling a QJSValue manually which significantly
reduces a lot of code.
- We can't make FPX2 a native type, so these are QJSValue args and
unboxed there.
Long term I want overloads for animate that take int/QSize/QPoint which
are native JS types, but that might be an API break.
Test Plan:
Hopefully comprehensive unit test which passes
Tested fade/fadeDesktop manually.
It's a very invasive change, so I expect some things will be broke
please help test any JS effects.
