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.
