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.
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.
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 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 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 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.
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.
One of the major issues with the old tracking code is a data race
between the cursor thread updating g_cursor.guest and the
app_handleMouseBasic function. Specifically, the latter may have
sent mouse input via spice that has not been processed by the guest
and updated g_cursor.guest, but the guest may overwrite g_cursor.guest
to a previous state before the input is processed. This causes some
movements to be doubled. Eventually, the cursor positions will
synchronize, but this nevertheless causes a lot of jitter.
In this commit, we introduce a new field g_cursor.projected, which
is unambiguously the position of the cursor after taking into account
all the input already sent via spice. This is synced up to the guest
cursor upon entering the window and when the host restarts. Afterwards,
all mouse movements will be based on this position. This eliminates
all cursor jitter as far as I could tell.
Also, the cursor is now synced to the host position when exiting
capture mode.
A downside of this commit is that if the 1:1 movement patch is not
correctly applied, the cursor position would be wildly off instead
of simply jittering, but that is an unsupported configuration and
should not matter.
Also unsupported is when an application in guest moves the cursor
programmatically and bypassing spice. When using those applications,
capture mode must be on. Before this commit, we try to move the guest
cursor back to where it should be, but it's inherently fragile and
may lead to scenarios such as wild movements in first-person shooters.
