X11 needs to calibrate to get the best possible latency, as such it
needs the scene to render so that the render time of the scene can be
accounted for in the delay calculation.
The way things were handled in EGLTexture is not only very hard to
follow, but broken. This change set breaks up EGLTexture into a modular
design making it easier to implement the various versions.
Note that DMABUF is currently broken and needs to be re-implemented.
Without configuring Wayland compositors to send frame callbacks as late as
possible, JIT rendering can increase latency by more than one frame.
For example, by default, sway asks applications to render right after a
vblank, and does its own composition right after a vblank, resulting in
~2 frame's worth of latency. If max_render_time is set on the output,
it composes that many milliseconds before the vblank, losing ~1 frame's
worth of latency. If max_render_time is set on the window also, the frame
callback is sent that many milliseconds before composition, and we achieve
perfectly low latency.
Therefore, out of the box, JIT rendering should not be enabled, as manual
compositor configuration is required for optimal results.
For reference, the following sway settings results in the best latency:
output <insert output name> max_render_time 1
for_window [app_id="looking-glass-client"] max_render_time 1
This reverts commit 3baed05728.
When requested, JIT render mode will be used if the display server supports it.
Otherwise, a warning is generated instead.
This essentially uses the signalNextFrame logic for imgui, but for everything.
We automatically enable this mode when overlay is on.
Currently, this exposes some damage tracking bugs in the EGL renderer.
We look for the client config in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/looking-glass/client.ini.
This is done because it's more conventional, and also allows us to add
additional configuration files, e.g. for the host.
We fallback to $HOME/.config as is standard, and then as a last resort use
getpwuid(getuid())->pw_dir. This is also recommended by the getpwuid manpage:
> An application that wants to determine its user's home directory should
> inspect the value of HOME (rather than the value getpwuid(getuid())->pw_dir)
> since this allows the user to modify their notion of "the home directory"
> during a login session.
Currently, we load /etc/looking-glass-client.ini and/or
~/.config/looking-glass-client.ini as long as they exist, even if they are
not files. We should only load them if they are files.
We don't want to encourage craziness of people making the client suid to
bypass permission issues on the shm file.
Note: I see no evidence of this happening in the wild, but let's be
proactive.
The refresh-copyright script now automatically updates the copyright string
embedded in config.c. In order to achieve this, refresh-copyright gained the
ability to reflow text as the situation needs.
We now give ImGui the true logical size of the window and tell it to scale
the framebuffer. To fix the blurry fonts, we continue to load fonts at the
scale necessary for the DPI and use FontGlobalScale to shrink the fonts back
to the logical size. The font rectangle is then expanded by the framebuffer
scaling, resulting in good text rendering.
This method has the advantage of not messing up the sizes of resizable
overlays when moving across monitors.
The default of [0, 50] makes sense for FPS/UPS graphs, but does not for
things like the import graph. The latter should not take more than 5 ms
for sure.
This commit allows the min/max y-axis value to be specified when registering
the graph.
Now that we are drawing with damage rects, when the window is hidden and
then exposed the window may not get fully redrawn. This provides
`app_invalidateWindow` for the display server backend to call when the
screen needs a full redraw.
When a new client connects to our session the host will repeat the last
valid frame for the new client. This change will detect this and skip
the duplicated frame.
This is necessary in case overlays change size. When this happens, we must
damage the larger of the overlays' rectangles this frame and last frame.
This erases the overlay from where it is no longer appears.
In order to do this, we must keep track of the rectangles for every overlay
with no exception. We cannot short-circuit the generation of rectangles if
we run out of buffer space, and we must allocate space for MAX_OVERLAY_RECTS
rectangles for every frame. Otherwise, we will not know where to erase the
overlay if it disappears.
While the renderer can internally track this it would be better to
simply provide this information to the renderer directly so it can make
better decisions on how best to update the screen.
If the guest is not sending frames at a constant rate, the minimum FPS
timeout may expire drawing an additional frame. This change calculates
the average ups frame time over the past 100ms and adds this to the
timeout value allowing this value to be dynamic.
The accumulated time is not the best way to do this as the timer
function callback may not be exactly every 1000ms, by using the
monotonic clock we will get more accurate results.
This commit creates a new utility library, eglutil.h, which contains code
to detect and use EGL_KHR_swap_buffers_with_damage or its EXT equivalent.
This logic used to be duplicated between the X11 and Wayland display servers,
which is not ideal.
The renderer may take time to process the cursor update due to various
internal factors, as such it's best we copy the data and mark the
message as done ASAP. This prevents the host from filling up the queue
as easily when a high dpi mouse is in use.
People often miss the warnings about invalid arguments in their command
line, this last minute patch attempts to address this by making
warnings, errors, fixme's and fatal errors stand out if stdout is a TTY.
Conversion from the float values srcW/srcH to the int values for the client window dimensions would sometimes round down, causing the client to scale instead of matching the host's resolution.
A resolution switch could cause the renderer state to become invalid as
the texture format may change while it's being rendered. This fixes this
by adding a lock around the format change and render calls to the
renderer.
This fixes a regression caused by the move from SDL2 which handled this
itself. We should only minimize when focus is lost if the application
was in full screen mode.
util_guestCurToLocal may not be able to provide the local position if
we do not yet know where the guest cursor is, or the destination render
rect dimensions. Acting on this when this information is unknown causes
undefined behaivour.
Instead of damaging the entire surface when rendering a cursor move,
we can use the EGL_KHR_swap_buffers_with_damage extension to only
damage the part of the window covered by the cursor. This should
reduce the cursor movement latency on Wayland.
We previously used strstr, which can be prone to false positives when
the name of one extension is a substring of another extension.
This commit creates the helper function util_hasGLExt, which asserts
that the substring found in extension list is bounded by either spaces
or the beginning/end of the string.
Using util_cursorToInt messes with the error tracking for normal movements,
and is not necessary since we are computing an absolute position on the
client window.
Instead, we should pass doubles directly to display servers and let them
decide how to best handle them. For example, XIWarpPointer accepts doubles
directly.
Currently, (un)grabPointer is used both for tracking/confining the mouse
in normal mode, as well as entering/exiting capture mode. This makes it
impossible to use separate cursor logic for capture mode, which is needed
to deal with overlapping windows for the Wayland backend.
This commit creates separate (un)capturePointer for entering/exiting
capture mode. There should be no behaviour changes.
This adds a new method to the display server interface to allow the
application to notify the ds when there is a guest cursor position
update along with the translated local guest cursor position. This makes
it possible for the display server to keep the local cursor position in
sync with the guest cursor so that window leave events can be detected
when the cursor would move into an overlapping window.
Wayland currently just has a stub for this, and the X11 implementation
still needs some minor tweaking.
This option controls the time period (in ms) after which the help menu
appears when holding down the escape key. After this time period,
capture mode is no longer toggled.
This fixes#527.
When users press escapeKey for a long time, they probably want to
see the help text instead of actually toggling capture. Therefore,
if the key is held down for more than 500 ms, we assume the user
wants to look at the help text and do not toggle capture mode.
500 ms seems to be a decent compromise, allowing slow presses, but
is not enough time for the user to have looked at the help text.
During the refactor/rebase period with B3-next the conditional was
accidentally reversed. This would cause the cursor to be ungrabbed
simply when toggling capture mode instead of waiting for the cursor to
exit the window.
Mouse move deltas greater then 10 are rare, let alone the 20 this code
now uses. Any movements that exceed 20 pixels will disable the exit
detection code path preventing rapid movements in FPV games from causing
the cursor to exit the window if autoCapture is enabled.
As we now are using our own backends instead of SDL, there is no longer
any need to warp back to the center of the window when in autoCapture
mode. This breaks the SDL ds backend behaviour, however as SDL is
planned to be removed this is not an issue.
This is enabled on default. Specify wayland:warpSupport=no to disable it,
which may be useful on certain compositors that do not warp when the
pointer is confined.
This commit converts the output of ds->getProp(LG_DS_WARP_SUPPORT) to
an enum containing three items:
* LG_DS_WARP_NONE: warp is not supported at all
* LG_DS_WARP_SURFACE: warp is possible, but only inside the window
* LG_DS_WARP_SCREEN: warp is possible anywhere on the screen
LG_DS_WARP_NONE corresponds to the old false return value, and
LG_DS_WARP_SCREEN corresponds to the old true return value.
LG_DS_WARP_SURFACE is designed for Wayland, where warping is possible,
but only in our window. In this case, since we cannot warp outside
the window, we can warp the cursor to the edge when we attempt to exit.
If the cursor leaves, the normal leave routine gets called, and the
cursor disappears. If the cursor does not end up leaving, we grab it
again.
This makes dealing with window manager shortcuts that overlap with guest
keys more pleasant, while retaining the previous functionality for users
who prefer it.
For instance, previously, using Alt+Tab (or $mod as Alt in i3/sway
movement commands) would result in the guest retaining Alt as pressed.
When the guest regained focus, it would continue thinking Alt is
pressed, leading to accidentally triggering obscure shortcuts. One had
to remember to press Alt again to "unstick" things, which was
suboptimal.
This commit adds a new option, win:autoScreensaver, which when set to yes,
automatically disables the screensaver when requested by an application
running in the guest, and enables it when the application no longer wants
it disabled.
This is useful when doing media playback in the guest.
It appears that the keyboard should only be grabbed if the client is
focused and the cursor is in the view. However, the relevant logic was
missing from core_setCursorInView, and the keyboard was never actually
grabbed.
This commit adds the call to g_state.ds->grabKeyboard(), allowing grabbing
to work.
Before, if you want to see the FPS, you need to close the client and
restart it with the -k switch to see the FPS. This is annoying.
This PR introduces a new keybind, ScrollLock+D, which, when pressed,
toggles the display of the FPS.
This is implemented for both EGL and OpenGL backends.
