Across a wayland compositor, there are multiple shells: It can be
a toplevel, or a layer_shell, or even something more meta like a drag
icon or highlight indicators when dragging windows around.
This object lets us store values that represent these modes of operation
and keep track of what object is being represented.

Adds a bool config option `primary_selection`, which explicitly
enables/disables the primary selection clipboard. Defaults to enabled.
This is implemented as a launch-only option which enables or disables the creation of the
`zwp_primary_selection_device_manager_v1` global.

Support the new dwtp (disable while trackpointing) option introduced in
libinput 1.21, allowing users to control whether the trackpoint (like
those in Thinkpads, but not only) should be disabled while using the
keyboard/touchpad.

The "dpms" command refers to VESA Display Power Management
Signaling, a deprecated standard. It's superseded by VESA DPM.
Instead of tying out command name to a particular standard, use the
neutral term "power".
Try to gain SCHED_RR (round-robin) realtime scheduling privileges before
starting the server. This requires CAP_SYS_NICE on Linux systems.
We additionally register a pthread_atfork callback which resets the
scheduling class back to SCHED_OTHER (the Linux system default).
Due to CAP_SYS_NICE, setting RLIMIT_RTPRIO has no effect on the process
as documented within man 7 sched (from Linux):
Privileged (CAP_SYS_NICE) threads ignore the RLIMIT_RTPRIO limit;
as with older kernels, they can make arbitrary changes to
scheduling policy and priority. See getrlimit(2) for further
information on RLIMIT_RTPRIO
Note that this requires the sway distribution packagers to set the
CAP_SYS_NICE capability on the sway binary.
Supersedes #6992
This makes it possible to hint to the renderer and backends how many
bits per channel the buffers that the compositor draws windows onto
should have. Renderers and backends may deviate from this if they
do not support the formats with higher bit depth.
As of 66343839b1, sway now uses a
libdrm header. Add this dependency to the build system so headers from
it can be used on systems where pkg-config is required to find them.
Add a separate per-view shortcuts_inhibitor command that can be used
with criteria to override the per-seat defaults. This allows to e.g.
disable shortcuts inhibiting globally but enable it for specific,
known-good virtualization and remote desktop software or, alternatively,
to blacklist that one slightly broken piece of software that just
doesn't seem to get it right but insists on trying.
Add a flag to sway_view and handling logic in the input manager that
respects that flag if configured but falls back to per-seat config
otherwise. Add the actual command but with just enable and disable
subcommands since there's no value in duplicating the per-seat
activate/deactivate/toggle logic here. Split the inhibitor retrieval
helper in two so we can use the backend half in the command to retrieve
inhibitors for a specific surface and not just the currently focused
one. Extend the manual page with documentation of the command and
references to its per-seat sibling and usefulness with criteria.

Add a command to influence keyboard shortcuts inhibitors. In its current
form it can be used to activate, deactivate or toggle an existing
inhibitor on the surface currently receiving input. This can be used to
define an escape shortcut such as:
bindsym --inhibited $mod+Escape seat - shortcuts_inhibitor deactivate
It also allows the user to configure a per-seat default of whether
keyboard inhibitors are honoured by default (the default) or not. Using
the activate/toggle command they can then enable the lingering inhibitor
at a later time of their choosing.
As a side effect this allows to specifically address a named seat for
actions as well, whatever use-case that might serve.

This enables/disables adaptive synchronization on the output.
For now, the default is disabled because it might cause flickering on
some hardware if clients don't submit frames at regular enough
intervals. In the future an "auto" option will only enable adaptive sync
if a fullscreen client opts-in via a Wayland protocol.
This adds seat configuration options which can be used to configure what
events affect the idle behavior of sway.
An example use-case is mobile devices: you would remove touch from the
list of idle_wake events. This allows the phone to stay on while you're
actively using it, but doesn't wake from idle on touch events while it's
sleeping in your pocket.
A wlr_keyboard_group allows for multiple keyboard devices to be
combined into one logical keyboard. This is useful for keyboards that
are split into multiple input devices despite appearing as one physical
keyboard in the user's mind.
This adds support for wlr_keyboard_groups to sway. There are two
keyboard groupings currently supported, which can be set on a per-seat
basis. The first keyboard grouping is none, which disables all grouping
and provides no functional change. The second is keymap, which groups
the keyboard devices in the seat by their keymap. With this grouping,
the effective layout and repeat info is also synced across keyboard
devices in the seat. Device specific bindings will still be executed as
normal, but everything else related to key and modifier events will be
handled by the keyboard group's keyboard.
Sway has basic support for drawing tablets, but does not expose
properties such as pressure sensitivity. This implements the wlr tablet
v2 protocol, providing tablet events to Wayland clients.
This adds a libinput_config change type to the input event for when
the libinput config for a device changes
In order for this to be possible to track, the libinput config code
had to be refactored. It is now extracted into a separate file to
isolate it from the rest of the input management code.
Adds a new commend "xkb_file", which constructs the internal
xkb_keymap from a xkb file rather than an RMLVO configuration.
This allows greater flexibility when specifying xkb configurations.
An xkb file can be dumped with the xkbcomp program.
New 'seat <name> xcursor_theme <theme> [<size>]' command that
configures the default xcursor theme.
The default seat's xcursor theme is also propagated to XWayland, and
exported through the XCURSOR_THEME and XCURSOR_SIZE environment
variables. This is done every time the default seat's configuration is
changed.
The new upstream is https://github.com/swaywm/swaybg
This commit also refactors our use of gdk-pixbuf a bit, since the only
remaining reverse dependency is swaybar tray support.
This implements the following command to set/unset a user idle
inhibitor for a view:
`inhibit_idle focus|fullscreen|open|none|visible`
The modes are as follows:
- focus: inhibited when the view is focused by any seat
- fullscreen: inhibited when the view is fullscreen (or a descendant of
a fullscreen container) and is visible on any output
- open: inhibited until the view is closed or the inhibitor is unset or
changed
- none: unsets any user set idle inhibitors for the view
- visible: inhibited when the view is visible on any output
This should have no effect on idle inhibitors set by the applications
themselves and those should still work as intended.
Since this operates on the view in the handler context, it is possible
to set it on the currently focused view, on any existing view with
criteria, or for any future view with for_window.
