This change allows the host to provide information to the client about
how the VM is configured, information such as the UUID, CPU
configuration and capture method both for informational display in the
client as well as debugging in the client's logs.
The format of the records allows this to be extended later with new
record types without needing to bump the KVMFR version.
If there is LGMP corruption the LGMP thread will set the state to
REINIT which if this happens early enough will get overwritten if the
inital app state is set too late. Instead set the application initial
state early to avoid this.
If a new client connects but there has not been a capture timeout the
new client count wont be zeroed on a valid capture. If there is a
timeout later the host will still think there is a new client and
re-send a frame when it should not. This fixes this by reading the value
on a valid frame which zeros the new subs count.
We were using an auto-reset event to signal the mousehook exit. This was
fine when there was only one thread, but with the addition of the update
thread, only one thread is signaled, causing the wait to last forever.
The fix is switching to a manual reset event and call ResetEvent after
the threads have exited.
While it's correct for DXGI to use a asyncronous waitFrame model, other
capture interfaces such as NvFBC it is not correct. This change allows
the capture interface to specify which is more correct for it and moves
the waitFrame/post into the main thread if async is not desired.
This changes the host to use a seperate pool of LGMP memory for cursor
positionl updates without shape information helping to prevent
corruption of the shape entries if they are still pending. While this is
not a perfect solution it resolves the issue without making major
changes to LGMP during the RC phase we are currently in.
If the guest VM is not showing a cursor when it starts such as on the
Windows login screen, the client never gets the current position of the
cursor, which prevents the client from attempting to send mouse
movements. This change ensures the client gets the mouse location on
startup.
We should only advance the pointerIndex if the buffer was not swapped
out for storage. This is to ensure that we do not overwrite cursor
memory that the client(s) may still be using.
When a new cursor shape is provided by the capture interface we need to
retain a copy of it incase a new client connects which will not yet have
the cursor shape. The logic here was flawed causing the wrong shape to
be sent to a new client in some instances.
One of the most common issues reported in the support channels is the
IVSHMEM size being too small. This change adds a calculation to
determine an optimal size and uses the new `os_showMessage` platform
method to display a message box to the user with the error.
Also for failure to parse command line. For these errors, restarting
with exponential backoff will not help: no amount of restarting the
service could possibly make the ivshmem device exist or larger, so
we shouldn't try.
This commit introduces a new option, app:capture, which can be set to
either DXGI or NvFBC to force the host application to use that backend.
This is very useful for testing DXGI on Quadro cards, which would default
to running with NvFBC.
This is needed for proper cleanup.
Freeing the capture interface also avoids a crash when using the NvFBC
backend. This is because we moved the mouse hook removal to nvfbc_free.
If nvfbc_free is not called before we start freeing LGMP memory, the
mouse hook would end up writing the cursor position into an invalid
memory address, causing an access violation.
This will allow us to add an option to disable the screensaver on the client
when an application in the guest requests it. This behaviour may be useful
when the guest is doing media playback.
This makes it a compile-time error to call a function that semantically
takes no parameters with a nonzero number of arguments.
Previously, such code would still compile, but risk blowing up the stack
if a compiler chose to use something other than caller-cleanup calling
conventions.
There is no need to allocate a buffer for each message as the client is
only required to show the latest version of the cursor. Whie the logic
should prevent cursor corruption, it's not guaranteed, however this is
not a problem as this can only happen if the client is lagging behind
and as such when it gets another update message it will re-read the
now new shape anyway.
