The InputDevice is useful for determining the origin of the event.
TabletPadId acts like it, but it still suffers from issues where we
need to access the InputDevice.
Currently, tablet pad event data is provided using function arguments,
but this approach is not good in long term. For example, if more data
needs to be supplied, then every user needs adjustments.
This change introduces more tablet event types to make the code more
flexible in terms of extending event payload.
It belongs in the TabletInputRedirection class, not in an event filter.
Because of that, the event filters are expected to pass the tool events
down the chain in order to update the cursor position, but there are
cases where we **must** intercept tool events.
Instead of the active screen being purely defined by the mouse position,
or purely defined by the active window and keyboard shortcuts, this changes
it to make the active screen all about the last user interaction. This should
work for most workflows without needing a setting to choose between two flawed
approaches.

* speeds up incremental builds as changes to a header will not always
need the full mocs_compilation.cpp for all the target's headers rebuild,
while having a moc file sourced into a source file only adds minor
extra costs, due to small own code and the used headers usually
already covered by the source file, being for the same class/struct
* seems to not slow down clean builds, due to empty mocs_compilation.cpp
resulting in those quickly processed, while the minor extra cost of the
sourced moc files does not outweigh that in summary.
Measured times actually improved by some percent points.
(ideally CMake would just skip empty mocs_compilation.cpp & its object
file one day)
* enables compiler to see all methods of a class in same compilation unit
to do some sanity checks
* potentially more inlining in general, due to more in the compilation unit
* allows to keep using more forward declarations in the header, as with the
moc code being sourced into the cpp file there definitions can be ensured
and often are already for the needs of the normal class methods
While not technically fitting for the name of the option, the behavior is what a user
would expect and it also matches with X11 (where the cursor goes to the touch position).
Due to being a compositor, kwin has to conform to some certain
interfaces. It means a lot of virtual functions and function tables to
integrate with C APIs. Naturally, we not always want to use every
argument in such functions.
Since we get -Wunused-parameter from -Wall, we have to plumb those
unused arguments in order to suppress compiler warnings at the moment.
However, I don't think that extra work is worth it. We cannot change or
alter prototypes in any way to fix the warning the desired way. Q_UNUSED
and similar macros are not good indicators of whether an argument is
used too, we tend to overlook putting or removing those macros. I've
also noticed that Q_UNUSED are not used to guide us with the removal no
longer needed parameters.
Therefore, I think it's worth adding -Wno-unused-parameter compiler
option to stop the compiler producing warnings about unused parameters.
It changes nothing except that we don't need to put Q_UNUSED anymore,
which can be really cumbersome sometimes. Note that it doesn't affect
unused variables, you'll still get a -Wunused-variable compiler warning
if a variable is unused.
This makes KWin switch to in-tree copy of KWaylandServer codebase.
KWaylandServer namespace has been left as is. It will be addressed later
by renaming classes in order to fit in the KWin namespace.
The .clang-format file is based on the one in ECM except the following
style options:
- AlwaysBreakBeforeMultilineStrings
- BinPackArguments
- BinPackParameters
- ColumnLimit
- BreakBeforeBraces
- KeepEmptyLinesAtTheStartOfBlocks
This simplifies focus related logic a bit. Instead of differentiating
between wayland and internal window focus, simply maintain window focus
that works both with regular wayland windows as well as the ones created
by kwin.
Add `tabletToolEvent()` to DecorationEventFilter class so it can handle
tablet events.
Add `tabletToolEvent()` to MoveResizeFilter class to avoid incorrect
titlebar highlight after a window is resized by using a stylus.
Add `tabletToolEvent()` to WindowActionInputFilter class so window focus
can be changed by clicking on the window content area when using a stylus.
Add `update()` to `TabletInputRedirection::tabletToolEvent()` to enable
switching window focus by using a stylus.
BUG: 432104
The main motivation behind this change is to prepare input abstractions
for virtual input devices so the wl_seat can properly advertise caps or
the cursor getting properly mapped/unmapped when a fake pointer is
added/removed on a system without a hardware mouse connected.
With this, there are three abstractions - InputDevice, InputBackend, and
InputRedirection.
An InputDevice represents an input device such as a mouse, a keyboard, a
tablet, etc. The InputBackend class notifies the InputRedirection about
(dis-)connected devices. The InputRedirection manages the input devices.
Such design allows to unify the event flow for real and virtual input
devices.
There can be several input backends active. For example, the libinput
backend and an input backend that provides virtual input devices, e.g.
libeis or org_kde_kwin_fake_input.
Once in a while, we receive complaints from other fellow KDE developers
about the file organization of kwin. This change addresses some of those
complaints by moving all of source code in a separate directory, src/,
thus making the project structure more traditional. Things such as tests
are kept in their own toplevel directories.
This change may wreak havoc on merge requests that add new files to kwin,
but if a patch modifies an already existing file, git should be smart
enough to figure out that the file has been relocated.
We may potentially split the src/ directory further to make navigating
the source code easier, but hopefully this is good enough already.
The main advantage of SPDX license identifiers over the traditional
license headers is that it's more difficult to overlook inappropriate
licenses for kwin, for example GPL 3. We also don't have to copy a
lot of boilerplate text.
In order to create this change, I ran licensedigger -r -c from the
toplevel source directory.
Summary:
Uses the tablet classes introduced in kwayland.
Depends on D26858
Test Plan:
Scratched my tablet with a magic stick and it did things depending on the pressure.

Summary:
This includes support for them on libinput and turns it into fake
pointer actions.
This doesn't implement zwp_tablet, this will have to happen in an
iteration later.
Test Plan:
Been playing around with it, see video.
