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.
When our window is destroyed, our timers are also destroyed. This causes our
attempt at destruction to fail. Instead, set MessageHWND to NULL in the
WM_DESTROY handler and don't try destroying the timers if the window is gone.
This is desirable because certain uncommon configurations like libdecor or
clang may break, and this shouldn't stop us from seeing if unrelated changes
pass.
DestroyWindow can only be invoked on the thread that created the window.
All other threads must use WM_CLOSE or another message to signal tell the
window to destroy itself.
Currently, we dispatch the events on the wayland display server ourselves.
This is fine when using the cairo backend of libdecor, as it does the same
thign we do, but other backends may require other things to be dispatched.
This commit lets libdecor dispatch events instead through libdecor_get_fd
and libdecor_dispatch, which should hopefully makes things less sketchy.
Our code to generate object files from shaders with the linker seems to
depend on GNU ld. More accurately, it works with lld, but we must specify
the correct object format via -m, which is very difficult to detect in a
satisfactory manner. Therefore we simply force use of GNU ld.
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.
MinGW seems to decide at random whether it wants to use memcpy from
mscvrt.dll or ntdll.dll. Currently, on Debian buster, ntdll.dll is chosen,
while on sid, mscvrt.dll is chosen.
This commit declares a new .def file for ntdll containing only the
functions we want to link from ntdll.dll, and generates ntdll.a from it
with dlltool. This way, MinGW will never be tempted to link functions
like memcpy from ntdll.dll.
This function is sometimes flaky and may fail for no apparent reason,
see https://stackoverflow.com/q/3945003. This has also been experienced
during the development of #610.
This commit adds logging so we may see if it ever fails for no reason
and work out some way to fix it.
