Now that the DRM backend no longer depends on GBM, we can make it
optional. The GLES2 renderer still depends on it because of our EGL
device selection.
This is useful for compositors with their own renderers, and for
compositors using the Vulkan renderer.
This new renderer is implemented with the existing wlr_renderer API
(which is known to be sub-optimal for some operations). It's not
used by default, but users can opt-in by setting WLR_RENDERER=vulkan.
The renderer depends on VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier and
VK_EXT_physical_device_drm.

Use 128-bit hexadecimal string tokens generated with /dev/urandom
instead of UUIDs for xdg-foreign handles, removing the libuuid
dependency. Update readme and CI. Closes#2830.
build: remove xdg-foreign feature
With no external dependencies required, there's no reason not to always
build it. Remove WLR_HAS_XDG_FOREIGN as well.
This dependency is already required by many other widely used X11
programs, such as i3, Qt, and other XWMs. So it should be available
on most systems.
X11 support can be pretty broken without xcb-icccm, with focus issues
for instance. Let's just remove this --please-break-my-desktop footgun
option.
This is simply a false sense of security, and is worse than just using
setuid. CAP_SYS_ADMIN is an extremely serious capability that is
effectively as powerful as root.
It also required users to be in the input group, which allows any
process to keylog the entire system.
The logind provider defaulted to systemd and in order to use elogind,
-Dlogin-provider=elogind was required. This adds 'auto' as a choice
for the login-provider option and sets it as default. Using 'auto',
the build will check for systemd first and if it's not found, try
to find and use elogind automatically.
Compiling the examples is useful for testing and development, but less
useful for actual users of wlroots.
This commit adds the option --enable-examples to set weather to include
the examples at compilation or not. The default value is True, so the
current behaviour remains unchanged.
Compiling the rootston example compositor is useful for testing and
development, but less useful for actual users of wlroots, who might
prefer sway or other compositors.
This commit adds the option --enable-rootston to set weather to include
rootston at compilation or not. The default value is True, so the
current compilation behaviour remains unchanged.
Now message can look like:
[xwayland/xwm.c:991] xcb error: op ChangeProperty (no minor), code Window (no extension), value 6291465
instead of this one when the lib is not available:
[xwayland/xwm.c:999] xcb error: op 18:0, code 3, sequence 103, value 6291465
The value in case of Window is the window id, so we can tell what
function applied on which window which is a good start.
The sequence ought to be able to tell us more precisely which
invocation it was, but we never log it when calling functions
so is useless in practice and no longer logged.
We move the warning options into the project's default_options, meaning
a user can configure them with `meson configure` and not need to edit
the file.
We also make it possible to disable logind/libcap even if they're
present.
