Geoffrey McRae 6631fde35f [client] clipboard: reduce remote file transfer latency
Mark the last non-empty FILE_DATA payload with BEGIN and END when the
producer knows it is terminal. Complete producer bookkeeping in the
following fileDataEnd call without consuming another LGMP grant. Keep
the standalone terminal record for empty and legacy unknown streams.

Drain up to 64 queued clipboard records per worker pass instead of
sleeping after every message. Poll at 1 ms while transfers, blocked
writes, held input, or pending output are active, and retain the 10 ms
interval while idle.

This removes a serialized grant round trip from every non-empty file
response and reduces scheduling delay while a large transfer is active.
Keep the 1 MiB payload size because the bottleneck was stop-and-wait
latency, not the chunk capacity.

Exercise a full 1 MiB response in a single BEGIN|END grant and retain
coverage for empty unknown-size responses.

Client rendering tests

These gtests run the production client with the synthetic test transport, capture the fully composed framebuffer immediately before presentation, and compare every pixel with an independent reference implementation.

The default CTest entry starts an isolated headless Weston compositor using Mesa software rendering. It covers:

  • BGRA, RGBA, packed BGR32, RGB24, PQ RGBA10, and scRGB RGBA16F;
  • odd widths and 24-bit row pitches;
  • the Cartesian matrix of every format with full-frame, moving old/new-box, overlapping, maximum-count, invalid, null, and zero-area damage;
  • HDR-to-SDR transfer, gamut conversion, and tone mapping.

When run on a color-managed Wayland compositor with a compatible EGL surface, the same tests validate native RGB10A2 or FP16 output. Native PQ tests also check the requested BT.2020 image description, reference white, mastering luminance, MaxCLL, and MaxFALL in the client log.

Building and running

cmake -S client -B client/build \
  -DENABLE_TESTS=ON
cmake --build client/build
ctest --test-dir client/build --output-on-failure \
  -R render-tests

GoogleTest and Weston are required when ENABLE_TESTS is enabled. Failed cases retain their capture and client log under /tmp and print the artifact paths.

To exercise native HDR on the current Wayland session instead of the headless SDR compositor:

client/build/tests/render-tests \
  --gtest_filter='*rgba10*:*rgba16f*'

Framebuffer readback verifies the signal produced by Looking Glass. Verifying a compositor's scanout and a physical panel's luminance remains a separate hardware test.
