This API and implementation comes from the Unreal Engine branch of SDL, which
originally called this "SDL_ConfineCursor".
Some minor cleanup and changes for consistency with the rest of SDL_video, but
there are two major changes:
1. The coordinate system has been changed so that `rect` is _window_ relative
and not _screen_ relative, making it easier to implement without having
global access to the display.
2. The UE version unset all rects when passing `NULL` as a parameter for
`window`, this has been removed as it was an unused feature anyhow.
Currently this is only implemented for X, but can be supported on Wayland and
Windows at minimum too.
This prevents conflicts with hidapi linked with applications, as well as allowing applications to make use of HIDAPI on Android and other platforms that might not normally have an implementation available.
It's marked as being a public symbol internally, however, it was missing from the header files and not visible in the shared library. This adds it to the necessary headers and to the DynAPI list to expose it for use by applications.

Note that this removes the timeGetTime() fallback on Windows; it is a
32-bit counter and SDL2 should never choose to use it, as it only is needed
if QueryPerformanceCounter() isn't available, and QPC is _always_ available
on Windows XP and later.
OS/2 has a similar situation, but since it isn't clear to me that similar
promises can be made about DosTmrQueryTime() even in modern times, I decided
to leave the fallback in, with some heroic measures added to try to provide a
true 64-bit tick counter despite the 49-day wraparound. That approach can
migrate to Windows too, if we discover some truly broken install that doesn't
have QPC and still depends on timeGetTime().
Fixes#4870.
Currently, if an application wants to toggle VSync, they'd have to tear
down the renderer and recreate it. This patch fixes that by letting
applications call SDL_RenderSetVSync().
This is the same as the patch in #3673, except it applies to all
renderers (including PSP, even thought it seems that the VSync flag is
disabled for that renderer). Furthermore, the renderer flags also change
as well, which #3673 didn't do. It is also an API instead of using hint
callbacks (which could be potentially dangerous).
Closes#3673.
- cmake, configure (CheckDLOPEN): --enable-sdl-dlopen is now history..
detach the dl api discovery from SDL_LOADSO_DLOPEN functionality.
define HAVE_DLOPEN. also define DYNAPI_NEEDS_DLOPEN (CheckDLOPEN is
called only for relevant platforms.)
- update SDL_config.in and SDL_config.cmake accordingly.
- SDL_dynapi.h: set SDL_DYNAMIC_API to 0 if DYNAPI_NEEDS_DLOPEN is
defined, but HAVE_DLOPEN is not.
- pthread/SDL_systhread.c: conditionalize dl api use to HAVE_DLOPEN
- SDL_x11opengl.c, SDL_DirectFB_opengl.c, SDL_naclopengles.c: rely
on HAVE_DLOPEN, not SDL_LOADSO_DLOPEN.
- SDL_config_android.h, SDL_config_iphoneos.h, SDL_config_macosx.h,
SDL_config_pandora.h, and SDL_config_wiz.h: define HAVE_DLOPEN.

Fix#3596, can call the `SDL_TLSCleanup` to cleanup the TLS data when closing the application
SDL has been missing a bunch of these 'isX' functions for some time,
where X is some characteristic of a given character.
This commit adds the rest of them to the SDL stdlib, so now we have:
- SDL_isalpha()
- SDL_isalnum()
- SDL_isblank()
- SDL_iscntrl()
- SDL_isxdigit()
- SDL_ispunct()
- SDL_isprint()
- SDL_isgraph()
This adds SDL_SetWindowKeyboardGrab(), SDL_GetWindowKeyboardGrab(),
SDL_SetWindowMouseGrab(), SDL_GetWindowMouseGrab(), and new
SDL_WINDOW_KEYBOARD_GRABBED flag. It also updates the test harness to exercise
this functionality and makes a minor fix to X11 that I missed in
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/02a2d609369b
To fit in with this new support, SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_CAPTURE has been renamed to
SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_CAPTURE with the old name remaining as an alias for backwards
compatibility with older code.

stdlib: Added SDL_round, SDL_roundf, SDL_lround and SDL_lroundf
The default implementation is based on the one used in the Windows RT video driver.
Added support for the PS4 controller gyro and accelerometer on iOS and HIDAPI drivers
Also fixed an issue with the accelerometer on iOS having inverted axes
Caleb Cornett's comments:
"A few weeks ago, Alex added a partial Metal API to SDL2:
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/22c8e7cd8d38
I noticed it was missing a few features that would help Metal become a
first-class citizen in SDL, so I went ahead and wrote them! Here are the new
APIs:
1. SDL_WINDOW_METAL flag for SDL_CreateWindow(). This allows the programmer
to specify that they intend to create a window for use with SDL_MetalView.
The flag is used to ensure correct usage of the API and to prevent
accidentally defaulting to OpenGL on iOS.
2. SDL_Metal_GetLayer(). This function takes a SDL_MetalView and returns a
pointer to the view's backing CAMetalLayer. This simplifies things
considerably, since in the current version of the SDL_Metal API the
programmer is required to bridge-cast a SDL_MetalView handle to an NSView or
UIView (depending on the platform) and then extract the layer from there.
SDL_Metal_GetLayer automatically handles all of that, making the operation
simple and cross-platform.
3. SDL_Metal_GetDrawableSize(). This function already exists in the current
SDL_Metal API (and is used behind-the-scenes for SDL_Vulkan_GetDrawableSize
on Apple platforms) but was not publicly exposed. My patch exposes this
function for public use. It works just like you'd expect.
Tested on macOS 10.14 and iOS 12.4."
Fixes Bugzilla #4796.

I have created a new driver for SDL's Joystick and Game-Controller subsystem: a Virtual driver. This driver allows one to create a software-based joystick, which to SDL applications will look and react like a real joystick, but whose state can be set programmatically. A primary use case for this is to help enable developers to add touch-screen joysticks to their apps.
The driver comes with a set of new, public APIs, with functions to attach and detach joysticks, set virtual-joystick state, and to determine if a joystick is a virtual-one.
Use of virtual joysticks goes as such:
1. Attach one or more virtual joysticks by calling SDL_JoystickAttachVirtual. If successful, this returns the virtual-device's joystick-index.
2. Open the virtual joysticks (using indicies returned by SDL_JoystickAttachVirtual).
3. Call any of the SDL_JoystickSetVirtual* functions when joystick-state changes. Please note that virtual-joystick state will only get applied on the next call to SDL_JoystickUpdate, or when pumping or polling for SDL events (via SDL_PumpEvents or SDL_PollEvent).
Here is a listing of the new, public APIs, at present and subject to change:
------------------------------------------------------------
/**
* Attaches a new virtual joystick.
* Returns the joystick's device index, or -1 if an error occurred.
*/
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickAttachVirtual(SDL_JoystickType type, int naxes, int nballs, int nbuttons, int nhats);
/**
* Detaches a virtual joystick
* Returns 0 on success, or -1 if an error occurred.
*/
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickDetachVirtual(int device_index);
/**
* Indicates whether or not a virtual-joystick is at a given device index.
*/
extern DECLSPEC SDL_bool SDLCALL SDL_JoystickIsVirtual(int device_index);
/**
* Set values on an opened, virtual-joystick's controls.
* Returns 0 on success, -1 on error.
*/
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickSetVirtualAxis(SDL_Joystick * joystick, int axis, Sint16 value);
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickSetVirtualBall(SDL_Joystick * joystick, int ball, Sint16 xrel, Sint16 yrel);
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickSetVirtualButton(SDL_Joystick * joystick, int button, Uint8 value);
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_JoystickSetVirtualHat(SDL_Joystick * joystick, int hat, Uint8 value);
------------------------------------------------------------
Miscellaneous notes on the initial patch, which are also subject to change:
1. no test code is present in SDL, yet. This should, perhaps, change. Initial development was done with an ImGui-based app, which potentially is too thick for use in SDL-official. If tests are to be added, what kind of tests? Automated? Graphical?
2. virtual game controllers can be created by calling SDL_JoystickAttachVirtual with a joystick-type of SDL_JOYSTICK_TYPE_GAME_CONTROLLER, with naxes (num axes) set to SDL_CONTROLLER_AXIS_MAX, and with nbuttons (num buttons) set to SDL_CONTROLLER_BUTTON_MAX. When updating their state, values of type SDL_GameControllerAxis or SDL_GameControllerButton can be casted to an int and used for the control-index (in calls to SDL_JoystickSetVirtual* functions).
3. virtual joysticks' guids are mostly all-zeros with the exception of the last two bytes, the first of which is a 'v', to indicate that the guid is a virtual one, and the second of which is a SDL_JoystickType that has been converted into a Uint8.
4. virtual joysticks are ONLY turned into virtual game-controllers if and when their joystick-type is set to SDL_JOYSTICK_TYPE_GAMECONTROLLER. This is controlled by having SDL's default list of game-controllers have a single entry for a virtual game controller (of guid, "00000000000000000000000000007601", which is subject to the guid-encoding described above).
5. regarding having to call SDL_JoystickUpdate, either directly or indirectly via SDL_PumpEvents or SDL_PollEvents, before new virtual-joystick state becomes active (as specified via SDL_JoystickSetVirtual* function-calls), this was done to match behavior found in SDL's other joystick drivers, almost all of which will only update SDL-state during SDL_JoystickUpdate.
6. the initial patch is based off of SDL 2.0.12
7. the virtual joystick subsystem is disabled by default. It should be possible to enable it by building with SDL_JOYSTICK_VIRTUAL=1
Questions, comments, suggestions, or bug reports very welcome!

Recent attempt to build a recent HG state of SDL2 via AppVeyor gives the failure:

This was something rather trivial to add, but asked at least several times before (I did google about it as well).
It should be possible to dynamically change scaling mode of the texture. It is actually trivial task, but until now it was only possible with a hint before creating a texture.
I needed it for my game as well, so I took the liberty of writing it myself.
This patch adds following functions:
SDL_SetTextureScaleMode(SDL_Texture * texture, SDL_ScaleMode scaleMode);
SDL_GetTextureScaleMode(SDL_Texture * texture, SDL_ScaleMode *scaleMode);
That way you can change texture scaling on the fly.
Added the functions SDL_JoystickFromPlayerIndex(), SDL_JoystickSetPlayerIndex(), SDL_GameControllerFromPlayerIndex(), and SDL_GameControllerSetPlayerIndex()

I got this bug in SDL_ttf:
https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4524
Sylvain proposed solution:
SDL_RWseek(RWops, 0, RW_SEEK_SET);
And it works, but i can use it my project, because it written in C# with SDL2-CS wrapper and there not export for macroses:
#define SDL_RWsize(ctx) (ctx)->size(ctx)
#define SDL_RWseek(ctx, offset, whence) (ctx)->seek(ctx, offset, whence)
#define SDL_RWtell(ctx) (ctx)->seek(ctx, 0, RW_SEEK_CUR)
#define SDL_RWread(ctx, ptr, size, n) (ctx)->read(ctx, ptr, size, n)
#define SDL_RWwrite(ctx, ptr, size, n) (ctx)->write(ctx, ptr, size, n)
#define SDL_RWclose(ctx) (ctx)->close(ctx)
Therefore, I suggest replacing this macros with functions so that they can be exported and used in bindings
Touch device types include SDL_TOUCH_DEVICE_DIRECT (a touch screen with window-relative coordinates for touches), SDL_TOUCH_DEVICE_INDIRECT_ABSOLUTE (a trackpad-style device with absolute device coordinates), and SDL_TOUCH_DEVICE_INDIRECT_RELATIVE (a trackpad-style device with screen cursor-relative coordinates).
Phone screens are an example of a direct device type. Mac trackpads are the indirect-absolute touch device type. The Apple TV remote is an indirect-relative touch device type.
