Derek Foreman e3b6ed50f1 launcher: Remove launcher-logind
Second try at removing direct logind support. This time more careful
with the documentation, as libseat can still use logind even if we don't
directly use it.

Derek Foreman 754562fb52 Revert "launcher: Remove launcher-logind"
This reverts commit 55bf6b5046.

This accidentally removed things that should have stayed - libseat
can still use the logind API, even if weston doesn't directly use
it.

Note that the logind-launcher does not actually build anymore
because breaking changes landed before this revert.

Since we're removing it again right away, I've not taken care to
fix that.

Daniel Stone b510f4a9cb build: Avoid Meson warning for run_command() without check
Apparently the old behaviour was to silently succeed if program execution
failed. Setting check: true not only avoids a Meson deprecation warning
for not passing it, but gives us a more clear indication what goes on
when, e.g. breathe doesn't run.

Philipp Zabel 84c10124cd compositor: support loading backend via shortened name
While the --backend parameter looks like it takes a file name, it really
is selected from a list of supported strings that are then funneled
through a translation to enum weston_compositor_backend [1].

Because all backend parameters are of the form "...-backend.so", and
writing "--backend=...-backend.so" is boring, allow the --backend option
to match the backend name without "-backend.so" suffix instead.

For example, this allows to use "--backend=headless" instead of
"--backend=headless-backend.so".

Update help text and documentation. Keep the old way working for
backwards compatibility.

Pekka Paalanen 259bd17822 doc: remove directives deprecated in Doxygen 1.9.5
All these Doxygen configuration directives raise a deprecation warning
with Doxygen 1.9.5.

Since we have WARN_AS_ERROR = YES, this causes the build to fail.

Remove these deprecated directives.

I have checked the differences by first building from scratch without
this patch, and then building from scratch with this patch, and
in the latter builddir checking

$ diff -ru -x '*.md5' -x '*.pdf' ~/tmp/weston-doc-before doc

The only differences are the Doxygen config file and one .pickle file.

Pekka Paalanen b3ba1becba libweston: remove fbdev backend
Fbdev backend was deprecated in the Weston 10.0.0 release with
6338dbd581. Before that, I suggested
already in 2019 to remove it, but it was too soon then. Now it seems the
final voices asking for fbdev to be kept have been satisfied, see the
linked issue.

Fbdev-backend uses a kernel graphics UAPI (fbdev) which is sub-par for a
Wayland compositor: you cannot do GPU accelerated graphics in any
reasonable way, no hotplug support, multi-output support is tedious, and
so on. Most importantly, Linux has deprecated fbdev a long time ago due
to the UAPI fitting modern systems and use cases very poorly, but cannot
get rid of it if any users remain. Let's do here what we can to reduce
fbdev usage.

I am doing color management related additions to libweston which require
adding checks to every backend. One backend less is less churn to write
and review.

Libweston major version has already been bumped to 11, so the next
release will be Weston 11, without fbdev. enum weston_compositor_backend
entries change their numerical values.

When using the libseat launcher, there is one more detail to take care:

A normal user does not have permissions to manage a VT, so launching
would just fail. In this use case you also do not want to be managing

Leandro Ribeiro 08dbd29e33 gitlab-ci: compile Linux image with support to VGEM
Add VGEM to the Linux image that runs in the CI. There are tests that we
plan to add in the future that need this.

This brings a complication, as we already have VKMS in the image. The
order in which DRM devices are loaded is not always the same, so the
node they receive is non-deterministic. Until now we were sure that VKMS
(the virtual device we use to run the DRM-backend tests in the CI) would
be in "/dev/dri/card0", but now we can't be sure. To deal with this
problem we find the node of each device using a one-liner shell script.

This commit also updates the documentation section that describes
specificities of DRM-backend tests in our test suite.

The standard style of LCOV HTML reports is a bit harsh to look at. This
commit replaces it with a new one.

The new CSS was written from scratch by looking at the HTML source code

The color scheme is neutral, trying to avoid a Christmas tree effect.
The colors are intended to be calm while also distinguishable, and not
hamper text readability.

The font lists were taken from Gitlab with the hope that it will blend
in a little better when viewing from MR artifacts.

Pekka Paalanen 0b61620c22 doc: fix udev rule in calibration-helper.bash
This used a cargo-culted form of the ACTION check. Kernel is allowed to
invent new ACTIONs and IIRC there are already actions like bind and
unbind.

Udev events before rule processing always start with a clean property
list. This means that if you only match ACTION==add to add some value to
the event, then that value will not be present for ACTION==bind. Udev
event consumers do not accumulate values, so inconsistent value setting
may confuse them.

Therefore one needs to match ACTION!=remove, not ACTION==add|change, to
keep the device properties consistent for every event. It doesn't hurt
to set them on remove either, but it's a habit to try to avoid
processing when not strictly needed.

kiosk-shell is fullscreen shell for apps that use the xdg-shell

Top level surfaces are made fullscreen, whereas dialogs are placed on
top in the center of the output and retain their natural sizes. Dialogs
can be moved and (un)maximized, but resizing is currently not supported.

An app can be directed to a particular output by populating the
"app-ids" field with the app's XDG app id, in the relevant
"[output]" section in the weston config file.

Leandro Ribeiro e8a8c13e0d tests: add support to run drm-backend tests locally
With this patch we add support to run DRM-backend tests locally
in the test suite. For now this won't work in the CI, as there
are no cards available. But the plan is to achieve this by using
VKMS (virtual KMS) in the future.

To run DRM-backend tests locally, first of all the user has to
set the environment variable WESTON_TEST_SUITE_DRM_DEVICE to
'card0', 'card1' or any other device where he wants to run
the tests. Also, for now it only works if it is run as root,
but in the future this problem will be solved.

The tests will run on a non-default seat. The reason for that
is that we want to avoid opening input devices unnecessarily.
Also, since DRM-backend usage requires gaining DRM master status
on a DRM KMS device, nothing else must be using the device at
the same time. To achieve this we use a lock to run the
DRM-backend tests sequentially.

Leandro Ribeiro 4ec38d18b3 weston-log: replace weston_log_ctx_compositor_destroy() by weston_log_ctx_destroy()
The function weston_log_ctx_compositor_destroy(), which destroys struct
weston_log_context, takes weston_compositor as argument. We may have a
weston_log_context unlinked from a weston_compositor and currently there
is no way to destroy it.

Add function weston_log_ctx_destroy(), what makes the destruction of
weston_log_context independent of weston_compositor.

With this change, one could destroy a weston_compositor and keep the
related weston_log_context (since now weston_log_context can be destroyed
without the need of a weston_compositor). But if weston_compositor gets
destroyed it's also necessary to destroy weston_log_context::global,
as the debug protocol depends on the compositor. So a listener has been
added to the destroy signal of weston_compositor.

Leandro Ribeiro 5976dbbbb5 weston-log: rename the confusing function name weston_compositor_add_log_scope()
There's a function named weston_compositor_add_log_scope()
but it doesn't take a struct weston_compositor argument.

Rename it to weston_log_ctx_add_log_scope(), as
the log_scope is being added to a log_context.

Also, bump libweston_major to 9.

Pekka Paalanen 9dccfd1ef3 doc: output management sequence diagrams
When we were designing the libweston output API, I wrote a design document
as a Phabricator wiki page. Phabricator is no longer accessible so that
information needs to be migrated to a new place. Here I am converting most of
it into libweston Sphinx documentation, particularly pulling in the sequence
diagrams I drew. This should help people understand how libweston output
configuration works.

The diagrams are committed as both MSC source files and rendered PNG files. I
did not bother tinkering with the build to run mscgen automatically and then
with the CI images to install the tool.

The Sphinx configuration need numref explicitly enabled so that figures are
automatically numbered and can be referenced by their number rather than their
whole caption text(!).

The document structure is changed a little better flowing with Output
Management being the overview page and the Heads and Outputs being the API
pages.

First I wrote the struct weston_output and weston_head descriptions in Doxygen
comments in libweston.h, but then in the API page that text would have been
buried somewhere towards the end of the page. So I put that text in ReST
instead where it comes as first on the pages as it should. The doc for the
structs only contain a link to the top of the page. Yes, the comment style in
libweston.h is a little broken. If I left the asterisk there it would show up
as a bullet point in Sphinx. OTOH putting everything from \rst in a single line
did not produce anything.

Because Sphinx cannot look in two places, the images need to be copied into the
build dir too.
