Drawing to the front buffer directly requires special handling to
prevent seeing the draw progress (avoiding glClear, etc) and as a result
the output is quite bad unless a compositor is running. Also vsync if
enabled will not function without double buffering enabled.
As OpenGL is the legacy fallback, there are no plans to implement clean
front buffer draw support, so just enable double buffering.
We receive values as int64_t, but when we compute the sum, we store it as
int. This doesn't make sense as we eventually cast it to double when
computing the average. We should instead store the sum as int64_t.
If a compositor has not yet started or is not running the atom
`_NET_WM_BYPASS_COMPOSITOR` may not have yet been created. As such we
need to create it so that if a compositor is started it will see this
propery and honour it.
This should fix the occasional Wayland protocol errors that arise when
the UI thread and the cursor thread race.
Example of error that is fixed:
zwp_pointer_constraints_v1@11: error 1: a pointer constraint with a wl_pointer of the same wl_seat is already on this surface
The existing code would overwrite the texture's data even if the texture
is currently being used to render to screen. This changeset generates a
texture for each buffer preventing this invalid usage.
Extensive profiling reveals that the glibc memcpy performs up to 2x
faster then the existing SIMD implementation that was in use here. This
patch also will copy large 1MB chunks if the pitch of the source and
destination match further increasing throughput.
Under windows text editors like to default to saving in UTF8 with a byte
order mask prefix preventing proper parsing of any option that is on the
first line of the file. Since the configuration file is only intended to
be plain ascii this change ignores all non-ascii characters solving this
issue.
The incorrect spelling, NETWM_BYPASS_COMPOSITOR, somehow worked in the
past, but it appears to not work right now. Corrgan on Discord reported
the issue and confirmed that changing the spelling allowed the compositor
to be bypassed and the client to update faster than 60 Hz on his mixed
refresh rate setup.
This change adds an average function to time how long it takes the GPU
to copy and map the texture, and then uses this average to sleep for 80%
of this average lowering CPU usage and potentially decreasing lock
contention.
This commit restructures the Wayland clipboard handling for host->VM.
Before, we select one clipboard format and buffers the data for it, to
be presented to spice when needed.
Now, we simply offer all clipboard formats supported, and only when spice
asks for the data do we actually read the wl_data_offer. The wl_data_offer
is kept around until a new offer is presented, the offer invalidated, or
when we lose keyboard focus. This is in accordance with the specification
for wl_data_device::selection, which states that:
> The data_offer is valid until a new data_offer or NULL is received or
> until the client loses keyboard focus. The client must destroy the
> previous selection data_offer, if any, upon receiving this event.
We still buffer the entire clipboard data into memory because we have no
knowledge of the clipboard data size in advance and cannot do incremental
transfers.
Furthermore, if the user performs drag-and-drop on our window, we may have
need to handle multiple wl_data_offer objects at the same time. Therefore,
instead of storing state on the global wlCb object, we instead allocate
memory and store it as user_data on the wl_data_offer. As a result, we also
handle drag-and-drop so that we can free the memory.
It has been detemined that a failure to init NvFBC causes a 20-30%
performance penalty on non NvFBC supported hardware (GeForce) when using
DXGI, as such reverse the order and default to using DXGI as our first
option.
If NvFBC is still desired, pr #500 added the option `app:capture` which
can be used to force NvFBC.
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.
Support for non-PNG types is optional in the spice agent, so we should
avoid sending those if PNG is available.
Currently, the spice VDAgent supports only PNG and BMP formats.
