TLDR; https://godbolt.org/z/43fd8G
Let's deduce this from C++ reference code:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cppcx/wrl/how-to-activate-and-use-a-windows-runtime-component-using-wrl?view=msvc-160
At the bottom of the page there is this snippet:
```
int wmain()
{
/* ... more code ... */
// Get the domain part of the URI.
HString domainName;
hr = uri->get_Domain(domainName.GetAddressOf());
if (FAILED(hr))
{
return PrintError(__LINE__, hr);
}
// Print the domain name and return.
wprintf_s(L"Domain name: %s\n", domainName.GetRawBuffer(nullptr));
// All smart pointers and RAII objects go out of scope here.
}
```
`HString` is defined in `corewrappers.h` and the call chain for the destructor is:
`~HString() -> Release() -> ::WindowsDeleteString()`

Xcode11 and ios13 added support for metal simulator.
Here is a quick and dirty patch to enable it. Pretty early and only tested on a few samples for now. Required mostly to enable metal support on correct version of ios, generate simulator compatible shaders and enforce buffer alignments on simulator (same as osx).
If we fail to connect to the the pa server, we have an assigned context

Eliminate additional heap allocation for short-lived HSTRINGs.

With SDL 2.0.12 under MS Windows, if the window is partially offscreen calling SDL_SetWindowGrab(w, SDL_TRUE) works, but subsequent call to SDL_SetWindowGrab(w, SDL_FALSE) does not work.
I tested this in both real program, and a small test app, where unlocking cursor worked perfectly while window is fully in desktop bounds, but did not work if it was at least few pixels outside.
For the reference, following code is enough to reproduce the issue:
#include <windows.h>
#include <SDL.h>
int WinMain(
HINSTANCE hInstance,
HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine,
int nShowCmd)
{
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
SDL_Window* w = SDL_CreateWindow("", SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, 640, 400, 0);
bool grabbed = false;
bool want_quit = false;
while (!want_quit)
{
SDL_Event event;
while (SDL_PollEvent(&event))
{
switch (event.type)
{
case SDL_QUIT: want_quit = true; break;
case SDL_KEYDOWN:
if (event.key.keysym.scancode == SDL_SCANCODE_SPACE)
{
SDL_SetWindowGrab(w, static_cast<SDL_bool>(!grabbed));
grabbed = !grabbed;
}
}
}
}
SDL_DestroyWindow(w);
SDL_Quit();
return 0;
}

SDL dynamically loads libusb but does not check the return value of 'SDL_LoadFunction'.
Also libusb is loaded and initialized several time because 'SDL_hidapi_wasinit' is never set to true.
I made a patch if you want to test:
- check that 'hid_init' is called once and only once,
- check return value of 'hid_init',
- check return value of 'SDL_LoadFunction',
- check return value of 'SDL_malloc',
- add some debug logging.
On older mac, where METAL Renderer METAL fails to create, it allows to switch back to OpenGL SDL_Renderer
by re-creating the window (METAL flags was previously persistent).
This can happen if the application has not yet processed SDL_JOYDEVICEADD when
the same joystick is removed. It may also happen if two joysticks are added
and the second joystick is removed before the first joystick's SDL_JOYDEVICEADD
has been processed by the application.

Currently the rawinput driver always reports a device as "wired". This changes that to "unknown" and updates it once the device is correlated with xinput.
Most of the raw input events are dispatched in the main windows message loop. We only dispatch device change messages separately when we need them to be completely up to date.
It's legitimate to have a surface with 0 width or height (null 'pixels' pointer).
But calling SDL_FillRects would wrongly set the error "You must lock the surface".

When watching for hotplug events we can poll the inotify fd, but we
still need to scan /dev/input once per process, otherwise we'll fail
to detect devices that were already connected.
Flatpak[1] and pressure-vessel[2] are known to use user namespaces,
therefore udev event notification via netlink won't work reliably.
Both frameworks provide a filesystem API that libraries can use to
detect them. Do that, and automatically fall back from udev-based
device discovery to the inotify-based fallback introduced in Bug #5337.

Evdev headers aren't actually included in the base system (well, it has a private copy), they are available through the devel/evdev-proto port instead. We also have devel/libinotify and devel/libudev-devd shims, I didn't verify whether they work with SDL.
This fixes bad report parsing for various newer Xbox controllers, and this driver is now preferred over XInput, since it handles more than 4 controllers.

This patch adds support to the GameController framework on macOS Big Sur and later, adding support for MFi controllers as well as rumble support for PS4 and Xbox One. There is some code to make sure that the IOKit joystick handler doesn't include two controllers at once.
While the GameController framework is present in earlier versions of macOS, there was no public, approved way of checking if a specific IOHIDDevice is a controller that GameController could handle. This was changed in Big Sur.
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

For some reason the Logitech Extreme 3D joystick was added to SDL_gamecontrollerdb.h in the linux section only.
This breaks the joystick in linux as it is not a gamepad. I am unable to correctly use or map the Logitech Exteme 3D joystick in games that use SDL2 in linux.
Please remove Logitech Extreme 3D from SDL_gamecontrollerdb.h Linux section. It is a joystick not a gamepad.

When directinput fails to load, but a controlller is plugged in, an access violation happens.
This is due to IEventHandler_CRawGameControllerVtbl_InvokeAdded calling SDL_DINPUT_JoystickPresent which does not check if dinput is assigned signalling initialization of directinput.

This fixes two types of MSVC compiler warnings.
- One parameter in the function signatures of two WGI event handlers had one level of indirection too much (and did not match Windows SDK headers). The indirection was cast away so it still worked.
- size_t was implicitly cast to UINT32 for a number of (constant) string lengths.

This patch adds the KBIO text input driver for FreeBSD, which allows text input to fully work without text spilling out into the console. It also supports accented input, AltGr keys and Alt Lock combinations.
Tested with US accent keys layout and various AltGr layouts.
This improves SDL's ability to detect joystick hotplug in a container
environment.
We cannot reliably receive events from udev in a container, because they
are delivered as netlink events, which are authenticated by their uid
being 0. However, in a user namespace created by an unprivileged user
(for example bubblewrap, as used by Flatpak and Steam's
pressure-vessel-wrap), the kernel does not allow us to map uid 0, and
the netlink events appear to be from the kernel's overflowuid (typically
65534/nobody), meaning libudev cannot distinguish between genuine uevents
from udevd and an attack by a malicious local user.

Anything with X, Y and Z axes but no buttons is probably an
accelerometer (this is the assumption made in udev).
Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>
Previously we only checked for at least one button or key and at least
the X and Y absolute axes, but this has both false positives and false
negatives.
Graphics tablets, trackpads and touchscreens all have buttons and
absolute X and Y axes, but we don't want to detect those as joysticks.
On normal Linux systems ordinary users do not have access to these
device nodes, but members of the 'input' group do.
Conversely, some game controllers only have digital buttons and no
analogue axes (the Nintendo Wiimote is an example), and some have axes
and no buttons (steering wheels or flight simulator rudders might not
have buttons).
Use the more elaborate heuristic factored out from SDL's udev code path
to handle these cases.
In an ideal world we could use exactly the same heuristic as udev's
input_id builtin, but that isn't under a suitable license for inclusion
in SDL, so we have to use a parallel implementation of something
vaguely similar.

Device enumeration via libudev can fail in a container for two reasons:
* the netlink protocol between udevd and libudev is considered private,
so there is no API guarantee that the version of libudev in a container
will understand netlink messages from a dissimilar version of udevd
on the host system;
* the netlink protocol between udevd and libudev relies for security on
being able to check the uid of each message, but in a container with
a user namespace where host uid 0 is not mapped, the libudev client
cannot distinguish between messages from host uid 0 and messages from
a different, malicious user on the host
To make this easier to experiment with, always compile the fallback
code path even if libudev is disabled. libudev remains the default if
enabled at compile time, but the fallback code path can be forced.

GetAsyncKeyState() and GetRawInputData() report the state of the physical
buttons without applying the user's primary/secondary mouse button swap
preference. Swap the buttons returned from these functions, so we expose a
consistent view of the buttons to SDL callers. This new behavior also matches
the behavior of macOS and X11 backends.
See the Remarks section of the GetAsyncKeyState() function on MSDN.
We should only perform the VK_LEFT, VK_UP, etc. mapping if none of the other
special mappings apply. This allows the scancode normalization for the number
pad to take place as intended.
When we request realtime priority from rtkit, we have a rttime limit. If we exceed
that limit, the kernel will send SIGKILL to the process to terminate it.
This isn't something that most high priority processes will want, only processes
that selectively opt into SCHED_RR/FIFO through SDL_HINT_THREAD_PRIORITY_POLICY
should be subject to this level of scrutiny.
This change:
* Switches non-apple posix OSs to use SCHED_OTHER instead of SCHED_RR
for SDL_THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGH/SDL_THREAD_PRIORITY_TIME_CRITICAL.
* Fixes using a hardcoded RLIMIT_RTTIME, instead queries it from rtkit
* Only sets RLIMIT_RTTIME for MakeRealtime rtkit requests
* Adds a note regarding the possible SIGKILL with SDL_HINT_THREAD_PRIORITY_POLICY
* Introduces SDL_HINT_THREAD_FORCE_REALTIME_TIME_CRITICAL to allow apps to acquire realtime scheduling policies on Linux

Debugging inside rtkit showed we were failing the RLIMIT_RTTIME check, now that we're asking for realtime and not just high-priority due to a change in SDL.
Between that and the DBus code in SDL being wrong in previous changelist I'm not sure how this could have ever worked.

This patch fixes a MSVC warning, which is dependent on the regional settings of the build system. Although the character is inside a comment and harmless, it is undesirable to disable the warning for this.

Basicly there is problem and somewhat a solution: https://discourse.libsdl.org/t/setwindowmaximumsize-bug/28267
If you SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize() after SDL_SetWindowMinimumSize() with one of axes have the same value, function will have no effect.
This: (line 2144@SDL_video.c)
if (max_w <= window->min_w || max_h <= window->min_h) {
SDL_SetError("SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize(): Tried to set maximum size smaller than minimum size");
return;
}
May be changed to this:
if (max_w < window->min_w || max_h < window->min_h) {
SDL_SetError("SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize(): Tried to set maximum size smaller than minimum size");
return;
}
When converting audio from signed to unsigned values of vice-versa
the silence value chosen by SDL was the value of the device, not
of the stream that the data was being put into. After conversion
this would lead to a very high or low value, making the speaker
jump to a extreme positon, leading to an audible noise whenever
creating, destroying or playing scilence on a device that reqired
such conversion.
UnmapNotify event does not mean that window has been iconified. It
just reports that window changed state from mapped to unmapped.
XReparentWindow can unmap and remap window if it was mapped. This
causes unnecessary events - HIDDEN, MINIMIZED, RESTORED and SHOW.
These events are problematic with Metacity 3.36+ which started to
remove window decorations from fullscreen windows.
- SDL makes decorated window fullscreen
- Metacity removes decorations
- SDL gets UnmapNotify and exits from fullscreen
- Metacity re-adds decorations
As SDL will also get MapNotify event it will try to restore
window state causing above steps to repeat.

of outside the documented range.

I noticed pt2-clone had problems with it's optional hardware mouse on the KMSDRM backend: cursor had a transparent block around it.
So I was investigating and it seems that a GBM cursor needs it's pixels to be alpha-premultiplied instead of straight-alpha.
A
lso, I was previously relying on "manual testing" for the cursor size, but it's far better to use whatever the DRM driver recommends via drmGetCap(): any working driver should make a size recommendation via drmGetCap(), so that's what we use now. I took this decision because I found out that the AMDGPU driver reported working cursor sizes that would appear garbled on screen, and only the recommended cursor size works.
This fixes a case where you render to the backbuffer, then render to a render
target, set the current target back to the backbuffer, and then present
without drawing anything else; in this circumstance, the Present command
would never happen.
Fixes Bugzilla #5011.
This is handled in in the higher-level SDL_GL_LoadLibrary().
All uses of SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary (which calls the Only version) are just
target-specific wrappers for their own GL_LoadLibrary hook, with two
exceptions which now handle driver_loaded correctly (although it's
questionable if these init-if-no-one-did-it-correctly-already code blocks
should exist at all, fwiw).
Fixes Bugzilla #5190.
Instead of creating an X11 connection to test that X11 is available,
closing the connection, and then reconnecting for real, use the same
connection to handle both cases.
The X11 connection retry delay mechanism in the case where X11 is
dynamically loaded has been removed. It was only necessary to avoid
authetnication token reuse from the XOpenDisplay call that used to
exist in X11_Available. Now that this call is only made once, it
is no longer needed.
Also drop unused and inapplicable code from a comment.

This small patch fixes the KMSDRM_CreateSurfaces() call in KMSDRM_CreateWindow(), that was segfaulting deeper into SDL internals because the windata->viddata pointer wasn't set before the KMSDRM_CreateSurfaces() call.

This patch is needed so programs that do this work as expected:
1) Start in a different video mode than the mode used by the system and then...
2) Try to go fullscreen with the mode originally used by the system via SetWindowFullScreen() with the SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP flag.
An example would be pt2-clone in https://github.com/8bitbubsy/pt2-clone.
This program does this:
Starts with:
video.window = SDL_CreateWindow("", SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED,
SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, screenW, screenH, windowFlags);
and then, *IF* the user has configured it in fullscreen mode in its .ini, it tries to go fullscreen with the desktop mode:
SDL_SetWindowFullscreen(video.window, SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP);
This sequence of operations is currently failing because SDL_SetDisplayModeForDisplay() in SDL_video.c fails because display->desktop_mode is not being initialized with its correct value: SetDisplayMode() in SDL_kmsdrmvideo.c will not be able to set the mode because it detects the mode to have a driverdata of 0x0 ("if (!modedata)") and rightfully returns an error.
So, the included patch fixes this small problem, and programs that first change the video mode and then try to go fullscreen with the system video mode will now work.
The patch simply fixes an small omission, but its really needed now that dynamic video mode changing was implemented on the KMSDRM backend.

I was looking into my own input bug and noticed an issue in the HIDAPI code while looking over it. I don't have a controller that goes down this path to test and try to provoke the issue, but it looks pretty straight forward.
The memmove to shift the joystick id array on disconnect isn't scaling the size by sizeof(SDL_JoystickID), likely corrupting the ids on disconnect.
It currently behaves like a locking key which is pressed
when Caps Lock is enabled and released when disabled. This
means that apps that trigger events on Caps Lock key down will
only fire these events every other time Caps Lock is pressed.

It looks like refactoring of SDL2 internal API has broken SDL_RenderFillRect for DirectFB. In new version function SDL_RenderFillRect returns 0, but rectangle is not visible.

I wrote a new driver for my gamepad on Linux. I'd like SDL to support it out-of-box, as currently it just treats it as a generic joystick instead of a gamepad. From what I can see the only way to do that is to either 1) pick one of the already supported controllers' PID, VID and button layouts and have my driver send that (effectively lying that it's something else), or 2) submit a preconfigured, hardcoded mapping to SDL.
Both of those, in my opinion, are silly when we already have the Linux Gamepad Specification which standarizes this:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.15/input/gamepad.html
Unfortunately SDL doesn't make use of it currently. So I've took it upon myself to add it; patch is in the attachments.
Basically what the patch does is that if SDL finds no built-it controller mappings for a given joystick it then asks the joystick backend to autodetect it, and that uses the relevant evdev bits to figure out which button/axis is which. (See the specs for more details.)
With this patch applied my own driver for my controller works out-of-box with SDL with no extra configuration and is correctly recognized as a gamepad; this is also going to be the case for any other driver which follows the Linux Gamepad Specification.
Arithmatic operations promote Uint8 to signed int. If the top bit of a
Uint8 is set, and it is left shifted 24 places, then the result is not
representable in a signed 32 bit int. This would be undefined behaviour
on systems where int is 32 bits.
It makes it clearer who owns the memory, and more reasonable to free it on
failure in the creating function.
(and, of course, pacifies static analysis.)

On the KMSDRM backend, there is no such thing as a desktop, yet some programs could (and DO) use SDL_GetGlobalMouseState().
So I think its good idea that, in KMSDRM, it returns the same mouse coordinates anyway as SDL_GetMouseState() would return. There is nothing else it could return, as far as I can understand, since there is no desktop anyway.
This small patch does precisely that.
Manuel Alfayate Corchete
The KMSDRM backend was doing things wrong because of some small (but important) misconceptions on how KMS/DRM works: to implement a largely broken non-vsync refresh mechanism, the SwapWindow() function was issuing new pageflips before previous ones had completed, thus causing EBUSY returns, buffer mismanagement, etc... resulting in general breakage on vsync disabling from apps, that would not allow vsync to work again without KMSDRM video re-initialization.
To further clarify, on most DRM drivers async pageflips are NOT working nowadays, so all issued pageflips will complete on next VBLANK, NOT ASAP (calling drmModePageFlip() with the DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_ASYNC flag will return error).
The old code was assuming that can just issue a synchronous (=on VBLANK) pageflip and then pass a 0 timeout to the pull() function so we do not wait for the pageflip event, thinking that this will lead to correct non-vsynced screen updates from the program: That is plain wrong.
Each pageflip has to be waite before issuing a new one, ALWAYS. And if we do not support ASYNC pageflips on the DRM driver level, then we are forced to wait for the next VBLANK. There is no way around it.
I have also added many comments on the KMSDRM code. This is needed for future reference for me or others who may need to look at this code: KMS/DRM terminology regarding what SYNC and ASYNC mean in pageflip terms, and where to do certain things and why, is not trivial. It is not desirable or possible to invest time on researching the same concepts every time there is need to dive into this code. So please leave all these comments in the patch.
1. Comment that SDL_SetThreadPriority will make any necessary system changes when applying priority.
2. Add a hint to override SDL's default behavior for scheduler policy.
3. Modify the pthreads SDL_SetThreadPriority so that instead of just using the current thread scheduler policy it will change it to a policy that should work best for the requested priority.
4. Add hint checks in SDL_SetThreadPriority so that #3 can be overridden if desired.
5. Modify the Linux SDL_SetThreadPriority so that in the case that policy, either by SDL defaults or from the hint, is a realtime policy it uses the realtime rtkit API.
6. Prior to calling rtkit on Linux make the necessary thread state changes that rtkit requires. Currently this is done every time as it isn't expected that SDL_SetThreadPriority will be called repeatedly for a thread.

Display ends up taking only 1/4 of the screen area. It needs to call "setWantsBestResolutionOpenGLSurface:highdpi", like when creating a window the normal way.

Due to the new major fcitx version is coming close, the existing code need to be ported to use new Fcitx dbus interface.
The new dbus interface is supported by both fcitx 4 and 5, and has a good side effect, which is that it will work with flatpak for free. Also the patch remove the dependency on fcitx header. Instead, it just hardcodes a few enum value in the code so need to handle the different header for fcitx4 or 5.

'SDL_Windows::driverdata' of a Wayland window is allocated by calloc in 'Wayland_CreateWindow' but freed by SDL_free in 'Wayland_DestroyWindow'.

I see how the documentation is confusing. I think that the choice of the axis is an implementation detail. The documentation should state the goal of this value, so I propose this wording:
"Use this value to play an effect on the steering wheel axis. This provides
better compatibility across platforms and devices as SDL will guess the
correct axis."
Value could even be renamed 'SDL_HAPTIC_STEERING_AXIS'.
For Linux, sending an effect on the X axis with a Logitech wheel works. Others brands don't have driver for Linux as far as I know.
This is only supported on PulseAudio. You can set a description when opening
your audio device that will show up in pauvcontrol, which lets you set
per-stream volume levels.

Trying to build SDL with VS2019 using CMake will encounter a linking error
More specifically:
1>SDL_string.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol memset referenced in function SDL_vsnprintf_REAL

* 8BitDo SN30 Gamepad
* 8BitDo SN30 Pro+
* 8BitDo Zero 2
* SZMY-POWER PC Gamepad
* ThrustMaster eSwap PRO Controller
* ZEROPLUS P4 Wired Gamepad
In additional, all 8BitDo controllers use SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLER_USE_BUTTON_LABELS to have the correct mapping based on user preferences.
This patch removes deferred error string formatting: now we do it during
SDL_SetError(), so there's no limit on printf-style arguments used.
Also removes stub for managing error string translations; we don't have the
facilities to maintain that and the way we set arbitrary error strings
doesn't really make this practical anyhow.
Since the final error string is set right away and unique to the thread,
we no longer need a static buffer for legacy SDL_GetError(), and we don't
have to allocate 5x 128-byte argument fields per-thread. Also, since we now
use SDL_vsnprintf instead of parsing the format string ourselves, there's a
lot of code deleted and we have access to more robust formatting powers now.
This does mean the final error strings can't be more than 128 bytes, down
from the theoretical maximum of around 768, but I think this is probably okay.
They might truncate but they will always be null-terminated!
Fixes Bugzilla #5092.
The joystick layer can't necessarily give us perfect centering, but we know
that the game controller level has logical absolute idle positions that have
nothing to do with the physical device.
So send game controller events to make it look like the device is completely
untouched before sending the final removal event.

On Raspberry Pi 3 via the VC4 driver in firmware KMS mode, none of the
found configs match the desired format, causing the function to fall through
without any config being selected.
Fix by first iterating over the found configs, and if no match exists,
don't exclude the non-matching configs. This should fix RPI3 and possibly other
targets without breaking targets that have a matching native format (such as RPI4).
This allows you to bind surfaceless contexts on a background thread to, for
example, load assets in a separate context, for platforms that have different
requirements about sharing surfaces, etc.
Martin's notes on the matter:
"Here's a patch that enables passing NULL windows to SDL_GL_MakeCurrent, if
the involved APIs allow it. Currently, this is only the case for EGL, and
even then only if some specific extensions are present (which they usually
are).
If "surfaceless" contexts are not supported, SDL_GL_MakeCurrent continues to
generate an error (albeit with a more specific error message than it used to),
so this should not break anything that wasn't broken before."

discussion.)

This behavior matches SDL_RecreateWindow and makes it less likely that
another piece of code (e.g. a DestroyWindowFramebuffer implementation)
will attempt to use or free the stale surface pointer.
From hmk:
"When scaling is enabled (e.g. via SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize, size not equal
to window size), mouse motion events are also scaled. Small motions are
rounded up (SDL_max() when the value after scaling is less than 1), while
larger motions are truncated by the floating point -> integer conversion.
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/b18197f9bf9d/src/render/SDL_render.c#l658
The end result feels something like mouse reverse mouse acceleration + angle
snapping at low speeds, but less consistent (amount of truncation & rounding
depends on how fast the mouse is moved) and potentially much worse if the
scaling factor is large. This pretty much makes it useless for anything
where you need precise mouse aiming (think of games). I suspect this is why
aiming gets so terrible in some games that let you use scaling to reduce the
render resolution (e.g. Ion Fury).
With 4x4 scaling, I can reproduce a situation where it takes three fast flicks
of the mouse across the pad to undo one slow sweep across the pad. In other
words, extreme reverse acceleration. This does not happen when scaling is
disabled.
Furthermore, any game that uses relative mouse motion events for 3D camera
rotation probably wants the raw mouse deltas and not a value that depends on
scaling and resolution and rounding and truncation. Ideal camera rotation
just takes mouse input, multiplies it by sensitivity, and adds it to the
angle-in-radians or whatever measure is used for yaw & pitch. Pixels and
screen resolution or window dimensions should not be a part of the equation
at all, even if it could be implemented without rounding errors.
[...]
This [patch] completely eliminates angle snapping for me, and makes
sensitivity consistent. In other words, it's completely usable for, say,
aiming in a first person shooter."
Partially fixes Bugzilla #4811.
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.
This does not account for scrollbars nor margins. But is much better then returning the full display size when not running fullscreen, but for example in an iframe.
The first terminator is for input parameters. The second terminator was for the
output parameters.
If an error occurs when calling MakeThreadHighPriority(), e.g. a bad thread id,
then the reply from connection_send_with_reply_and_block() will be null.
Anthony Pesch's notes on his patch:
"Currently, the WASAPI backend creates a stream in shared mode and sets the
device's callback size to be half of the shared stream's total buffer size.
This works, but doesn't coordinate will with the actual hardware. The hardware
will raise an interrupt after every period which in turn will signal the
object being waited on inside of WaitDevice. From my empirical testing, the
callback size was often larger than the period size and not a multiple of it,
which resulted in poor latency when trying to time an application based on the
audio callback. The reason for this looked something like:
* The device's callback would be called and and the audio buffer was filled.
* WaitDevice would be called.
* The hardware would raise an interrupt after one period.
* WaitDevice would resume, see that a a full callback had not been played and
then wait again.
* The hardware would raise an interrupt after another period.
* WaitDevice would resume, see that a full callback + some extra amount had
been played and then it would again call our callback and this process would
repeat.
The effect of this is that the pacing between subsequent callbacks is poor -
sometimes it's called very quickly, sometimes it's called very late.
By matching the callback's size to the stream's period size, the pacing of
calls to the user callback is improved substantially. I didn't write an actual
test for this, but my use case for this was my Dreamcast emulator
(https://redream.io) which uses the audio callback to help drive the emulation
speed. Without this change and with the default shared stream buffer (which
has a period of ~10ms) I would get frame times that were between ~3-30
milliseconds; after this change I get frame times of ~11-22 milliseconds.
Note, this patch also has a change that removes passing a duration to the
Initialize call. It seems that the default duration used (when 0 is passed)
does typically match up with the duration returned by GetDevicePeriod, however
the Initialize docs say:
> To set the buffer to the minimum size required by the engine thread, the
> client should call Initialize with the hnsBufferDuration parameter set to 0.
> Following the Initialize call, the client can get the size of the resulting
> buffer by calling IAudioClient::GetBufferSize.
This change isn't strictly required, but I made it to hopefully rule out
another source of unexpected latency."

If called from background threads, use Grand Central Dispatch to use the

Fixes Bugzilla #4932.
The warnings were produced by GCC 9.2.x for x86_64-linux-gnu or
i386-pc-msdosdjgpp targets.
Most of the fixes involve changing the type of a variable rather than
the format specifier. For many of the affected test conuter variables,
a basic int seems sufficient.
Some format specifier warnings still remain for cases where changing
type or casting seemed inappropriate. Those warnings will probably
require some new format specifier macros (e.g. SDL_PRIu32).

In iOS, URL Events trigger the DropFile event. I would also expect the same event to be fired on the macOS platform but this is not implemented at all in the AppDelegate.

It appears that I cannot use SDL_RenderReadPixels on a bound framebuffer (SDL_Texture set as render target) as it simply results in gibberish data. However, drawing that framebuffer into the default target (window surface) does render it correctly. Other backends (OpenGL, software, Direct3D) do work fine.
It looks to me like D3D11_RenderReadPixels just gets the general backbuffer and not the current render target and its backbuffer.
Here is the patch which actually fetches the current render target and its underlying ID3D11Resource which is ID3D11Texture2D.
There are multiple SDL APIs that internally sink into dbus calls, e.g. battery
status, thread priority. If those calls happen in different threads simultaneously
it can result in dbus crashes.
To abide by dbus's multithreading guidelines we must call dbus_threads_init_default()
to enable dbus's internal locking mechanisms:
https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/api/html/group__DBusThreads.html#gac7b8a7001befc3eaa8c6b043151008dc
Additionally, access to a DBusMessage must be synchronized between threads.
SDL was already abiding that guideline as the DBusMessage structs aren't shared.
The following email from the dbus mailing list hints that arbitrating access to
the DBusConnection on the SDL may also be required:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2017-September/017306.html
Currently the message is double terminated, which results in SDL_DBus_CallMethodInternal()
incorrectly assuming that the other party is always returning true.
I'm not super familiar with dbus, so I'm not sure if this could also be the cause of this bug:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/6901
So if you go into System Preferences on a MacBook and toggle between a pair of
connected bluetooth headphones and built-in internal speakers, SDL will
switch the device it is playing sound through, to match this setting, on the
fly.
Likewise if the default output device is a USB thing and is unplugged; as the
default device changes at the system level, SDL will pick this up and carry
on with the new default. This is different from our unplug detection for
specific devices, as in those cases we want to send the app a disconnect
notification, instead of migrating transparently as we now do for default
devices.
Note that this should also work for capture devices; if the device changes,
SDL will start recording from the new default.
Fixes Bugzilla #4851.
This avoids the need to malloc something extra, use a semaphore, etc, and

Hello. I try to implement an application for Android, which uses a new sensors API from 2.0.9 to control a camera rotation via built-in gyroscope, using the code from the test/testsensor.c as an example.
Gyroscope input itself works well, but an interval between SDL_SENSORUPDATE events is about 200ms (the SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL, I believe), when I need the interval about 20-40ms (the SENSOR_DELAY_GAME or SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST).
If a driver's implementation of CreateWindowFramebuffer sets the window
surface, use that rather than overwriting it. A driver may set the window
surface if data cannot be passed via the CreateWindowFramebuffer output
parameters (e.g. surface palette colors).
Otherwise our cached state goes out of sync when updating a texture. Since
these state changes aren't necessary, they were removed instead of updating
the cached state.
Fixes Bugzilla #4998.

I've noticed that the Switch Pro Controller hidapi driver does not report battery levels when connected via Bluetooth, despite having code for setting joystick->epowerlevel.
This is caused by the driver always using k_eSwitchInputReportIDs_SimpleControllerState via Bluetooth. Using that mode means that the state reports you get back from the controller do not include battery state. Not using the full controller state over Bluetooth effectively makes this driver's support for setting joystick->epowerlevel entirely pointless, only ever reporting SDL_JOYSTICK_POWER_WIRED.
Is there a reason this was set to only use SimpleControllerState via Bluetooth?
I've attached a patch I'm using to allow getting battery level for the Switch Pro Controller.
A couple notes about this patch:
1) It changes LoadStickCalibration to accept the input_mode that is selected, because that's really what should determine what is used for stick extents, since stick extents differ between the modes.
2) In my patch I only use FullControllerState when the vid/pid matches the official Switch Pro Controller, as a cautionary measure in case some third-party controllers have problems with FullControllerState mode via Bluetooth (I noticed a HORI Wireless Switch Pad I had seemed to not read controller calibration correctly for stick extents. Maybe it's calibration data was uninitialized on account of having never been used with a Switch? I'm unsure, though if that guess is right maybe SDL2 should be detecting an uninitiated calibration state and using some sensible defaults)
There are a number of poorly behaved HID devices that time out on attempts to
read various strings. Rather than end up on an endless treadmill of blacklisting
broken devices, reduce our risk by only querying devices that are gamepads.
SDL_hidapijoystick.c already checks these same usages, so we shouldn't
exclude any working HID devices (caveat below).
This also makes HidP_GetPreparsedData() and HidP_GetCaps() failure skip
the device entirely, but that seems desired. If a device can't even return basic
top-level collection data properly, we want nothing to do with that broken device.
If we do find devices that work with HIDAPI joystick and fail these calls, we can
add an exception via VID+PID matching.
bluenaxela+sdl
The HORI Wireless Switch Pad does not properly connect via bluetooth. I did some debugging and found that the code that tries to control the Home LED causes this controller to disconnect.
This results in a dlsym() call, which causes Emscripten to panic if the game
wasn't explicitly built dlopen support. eglGetProcAddress works just fine on
this platform, so just let that codepath handle it.
This is a multi-part fix, and is the 2nd attempt at a fix for Bug 5034. Here
are the problems being addressed:
1. On macOS 10.14.x and earlier, trying to call IOHIDDeviceUnscheduleFromRunLoop
without a prior, paired call to IOHIDDeviceScheduleWithRunLoop, appears to
lead to a crash. A per-device flag has been added to make sure that these
calls are paired.
2. DARWIN_JoystickDetect was free'ing its SDL_joystick's hwdata field
(via FreeDevice) without setting it to NULL, and DARWIN_JoystickRumble wasn't
checking for a NULL hwdata. FreeDevice will now set hwdata to NULL and
DARWIN_JoystickRumble will check for a NULL hwdata.

Added Linux implementation, otherwise you get "Unsupported direction type" error.
Added documentation to explain why one would use SDL_HAPTIC_FIRST_AXIS.
Mathieu Laurendeau
Consider a device supporting effects on multiple axes.
There's currently no way to play effects against a single-axis direction.
A device supporting effects against X and Y may not allow to play effects with a two-axis direction coordinate, even if one of the coordinates is null.
My current (ugly) work around for this is to add a direction type SDL_HAPTIC_X_FORCE to play effects against a X-axis only direction (patch attached).
This issue impacted two GIMX users using the following wheels:
- Leo Bodnar SimSteering force feedback wheel
- Accuforce direct drive wheel
Playing constant/spring/damper effects against a X-axis direction worked well for the first wheel, but not for the second one.
A better strategy seems to play the effects against the first axis reported by the DirectInput enumeration.
This strategy also works with Logitech wheels (at least the DFGT).
It's been more than a year that I have the latest patch (playing effects against the first axis only) in the GIMX software. It's being used by thousands of people, mostly for adapting their FFB wheel to the PS4. I had no report that proves this strategy to be wrong.

New HID driver: xbox360w - no idea what that is, hopefully urelated
SDL_hidapijoystick.c had been refactored to couple data handling logic with device opening logic and device lists caused some problems, yields slightly uglier integration than previously when the 360 HID device driver was just handling the data.
SDL_hidapijoystick.c now often pulls the device off of the joystick_hwdata structure for some rumble logic, but it appears that code path is never reached, so probably not a problem.
Looks like joystick_hwdata was refactored to not include a mutex in other drivers, maintainers may want to do the same refactor here if that's useful for some reason.
Something changed in how devices get names, so getting generic names.
Had to fix a (new?) bug where removing an XInput controller caused existing controllers (that moved to a new XInput index) to get identified as 0x045e/0x02fd ("it's probably Bluetooth" in code), rendering the existing HIDAPI_IsDevicePresent and new RAWINPUT_IsDevicePresent unreliable.

David Ludwig
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!

Basically replicating the solution of the Switch Controller's button label issue. Physical layout should take priority unless it's explicitly requested by the user or application!

In `SDL_iconv_string` the `while (inbytesleft > 0)` loop can end up in a state where it never terminates because the library `iconv` function called from `SDL_iconv` doesn't consume any bytes.
This happened when a `WCHAR_T` input string was being converted to `UTF-8` but contained invalid characters. It would first It would first skip a few bytes due to `case SDL_ICONV_EILSEQ` but when there were 3 bytes remaining of `inbytesleft` `iconv` just didn't consume anything more (but didn't throw an error either).
It just so happens that the Microsoft Classic IntelliMouse `product_string` contains such invalid characters (`"Microsoft? Classic IntelliMouse?"`), meaning the function would get stuck with said mouse plugged in.
A fix for this would be to check if `inbytesleft` was unchanged after an iteration and in that case either decrement the counter like when `SDL_ICONV_EILSEQ` is returned or simply break the loop.

Hi, i already mentioned in the SDL discourse a bug that recreating of a texture occours pixel shader problem on direct3d renderer. There is no problem for direct3d11. You can see the issue by using my app named C Media Player which is available for Windows for free using my web site www.cmediaplayer.com. Just follow the steps:
*Open a media file
*When playing the file change the scale quality under the video menu.
*You will see the problem.
Prior to this fix, we would hit the existing_instance >= 0 case and move the joystick
again to a different index than the one requested by the caller. It also breaks the assumption
that a SDL_JoystickID is only present in SDL_joystick_players at one location.

I was just communicating with one of the Retropie developers regarding this.
This change removed the forced window focus change on creation (3534cb3793) as part of the change no longer assumes there's only a single window being created. This was perhaps an over-aggressive removal.
Due to that change, joystick events are only received if SDL_SetKeyboardFocus is called explicitly, or if the app has specified SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_ALLOW_BACKGROUND_EVENTS.
I think that part of my change should be reverted to continue setting mouse / keyboard focus to the window being created. If SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS is to be used as an input flag the code could be conditional, but that would still leave existing software broken.
The 8BitDo SF30 Pro Gamepad will generate a single motor pulse for each rumble message, so we need to do this frequently to have continous rumble on this device.

KaiOS is an OS for feature phones, with numeric keypad and non-touch screen, and typically 512 Mb RAM and 4 Gb flash.
It is based on Firefox OS, all apps are made with HTML5 and Javascript. SDL can be cross-compiled using emscripten and packaged as native app.
This patch adds support for star '*' and pound '#' keys on such phones to generate SDL events.
It appears that with some (presumably) flaky drivers or hardware that the WriteFile in hid_write never completes leading to GetOverlappedResult to block forever waiting for it.

I have an annoying issue on MacOS about XBoxOne Bluetooth rumble (Vendor: 0x045e, Product: 0x02fd).
When 360controller is installed, rumble is working correctly. However, Bluetooth rumble isn't working at all, with or without 360controller installed (although it is working with Chrome + https://html5gamepad.com).
I looked at the code, and it seems that XBox controllers are managed in MacOS in this file: SDL_hidapi_xbox360.c. The XBoxOne file is disabled for MacOS in SDL_hidjoystick_c.h.
The function HIDAPI_DriverXbox360_Rumble() is called correctly, and hid_write() returns no error.
I have tried a stupid test. I took the rumble packet from 360controller: ec4e88eb2d/XBOBTFF/FFDriver.cpp (L620). With the patch I have attached, I manage to have rumble working on Bluetooth (with some stupid vibration level, but it proves it can if the packet is changed).
But it breaks the USB rumble with 360controller. A comment in the function makes an explicit reference to 360controller, I think that's why I have broken this specific usecase.
I don't know what is the correct way to fix this, but it seems that the current implementation has a missing case for Bluetooth support.
Note that I also tested master this morning, and I have another issue:
if (!device->ffservice) {
return SDL_Unsupported();
}
test fails in DARWIN_JoystickRumble(). This test has been done quickly, I'm not totaly confident about its accuracy.

creating a fullscreen window with SDL_CreateWindow(..SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP..) in MacOS works fine, except if it was triggered by the user with the green knob in the top left window title bar.
Then "something" is different, and SDL_CreateWindow hangs for 15-20 seconds (tested in MacOS 10.13 and 10.14).
Responsible for the hang is this code in SDL_cocoawindow.m - Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace:
const int maxattempts = 3;
int attempt = 0;
while (++attempt <= maxattempts) {
/* Wait for the transition to complete, so application changes
take effect properly (e.g. setting the window size, etc.)
*/
const int limit = 10000;
int count = 0;
while ([data->listener isInFullscreenSpaceTransition]) {
if ( ++count == limit ) {
/* Uh oh, transition isn't completing. Should we assert? */
break;
}
SDL_Delay(1);
SDL_PumpEvents();
}
if ([data->listener isInFullscreenSpace] == (state ? YES : NO))
break;
/* Try again, the last attempt was interrupted by user gestures */
if (![data->listener setFullscreenSpace:(state ? YES : NO)])
break; /* ??? */
}
One trivial workaround is to change 'const int limit = 10000' to 500. Then the freeze is so short that it doesn't look like a freeze to the user.
Looking further into the problem, I observed that the function Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace recursively calls itself via some ObjectiveC messages. I managed to extract a callstack for this (copied below): Note how Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace in stack line 22 calls SDL_PumpEvents, which eventually arrives at SDL_SendWindowEvent, which calls SDL_UpdateFullscreenMode (stack line 0), which then calls Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace again (not shown). This recursive second call is the one that hangs.
Another "solution" that worked for me was to add a flag to SDL_Window that is set in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreenSpace and causes this function to return immediately if called from itself.
Obviously, this is also an ugly hack, but I don't have enough time to dive into this crazy Cocoa/ObjectiveC business deep enough to find a proper solution. But hopefully it's easy for one of the experts around.
Note that there is a "failure to go fullscreen"-message involved, maybe using the green knob causes this failure at first.
I can unfortunately not provide a minimum example.
Best regards,
Elmar

Attached is a diff that I used to get SetThreadPriority working locally. I still have no idea what the minimum SDK version is since Microsoft never documented it, but it's worth pointing out that they're much more aggressive about using the latest VS and UWP SDK anyway (for example, an updated Xbox is no longer compatible with VS2017, and updates are required to have a network connection of any kind).

At the moment i get following warnings from kmsdrm:
* in SDL_kmsdrmvideo.c KMSDRM_DestroySurfaces is return type int, but thats never returned or checked against
* in SDL_kmsdrmvideo.c KMSDRM_DestroySurfaces the variable viddata is not used
* in SDL_kmsdrmopengles.c KMSDRM_GLES_LoadLibrary a cast to NativeDisplayType is missing
I attached a patch for them :)
- Regression of test_1.c of bug 3827, after fix from bug 4798.
- Blending is also needed when the palette contains alpha value, but not necessarily colorkey.
- Clean up SDL_ConvertColorkeyToAlpha which doesn't seem to need 'ignore_alpha' parameter any-more.
(see bug 3827)
A good metric of this is when the titlebar's "minimize" button is reenabled,
which doesn't happen by the time windowDidExitFullscreen triggers.
This fixes minimizing a fullscreen window on macOS.
Fixes Bugzilla #4177.
This is the OpenGL line drawing fix for Bugzilla #3182, but there's some
disagreement about what the renderers should do here, so I'm backing this out
until after 2.0.12 ships, and then we'll reevaluate all the renderer backends
to decide what's correct, and make them all work the same.

Since https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/f908bd722523 / bug 4966 i cannot build SDL anymore. The error i get is, essentially, caused by -Werror=declaration-after-statement in SDL_kmsdrmvideo.c and SDL_kmsdrmopengles.c
Wait up to 100 milliseconds, since the window manager might alter or
outright veto the window change...or not respond at all.
In a well-functioning system, though, this should help make sure
that SDL_SetWindowPosition's results match reality.
Fixes Bugzilla #4646.
OpenGL apparently needs to not do any drawing between wl_egl_window_resize
and eglSwapBuffers, but Vulkan apps don't use SDL to present, so they
never call into an equivalent of SDL_GL_SwapWindow where our Wayland code
was handling pending resize work.
Fixes Bugzilla #4722.
This is obnoxious and wrong, but the patch that activates the Dock before
activating the app fixes the _menu_ not responding on Catalina, but the
first window created by the app won't have keyboard focus without a small
delay inserted.
This obviously needs a better solution, but it gets it limping along correctly
for now.

We did some investigations into a different direction which I would like to share. As mentioned previously the scaling setting in the preferences play an important role for our problem and they also hint towards an issue with point/pixel scaling factors.
We found an interesting correlation between our fail case and the behavior of [nsWindow.screen backingScaleFactor]. It turns out that whenever we encounter the fail case the scale factor is zero when we print it quickly after calling SDL_CreateWindow. After some time the value changes to a non-zero value. In the success case the scaling factor is nonzero 'immediately'. Note that we don't use that factor. We also find that the window backingScaleFactor does not show the strange behavior even in the fail case.
We have also attempted to find out whether any event triggers the transition from zero to non-zero. We found the transition happening when we call SDL_PollEvent. We can even force this to happen by explicitly adding a SDL_PollEvent at an early stage, but it will only happen if a certain amount of time elapsed, so we need to add some sleep before the call to trigger the transition at an earlier stage. All that seems to imply that the transition happens async and that SDL_PollEvent merely causes the system to update its internal state at that time.
We have also verified that the scaling setting in the preferences does NOT directly correlate to the scaling factor behavior. We find that a particular scaling setting can lead to a fail case for one resolution and a success case for another resolution. This shows that the scaling setting alone does not determine whether the problem will appear or not.
We have also verified on another Mac with 10.14 that the scaling factor is always non-zero and we always have the success case.
I have no idea how to interpret this initial-zero behavior and haven't found any usable information on the screen backing scale factor. It seems as 10.15 does some stuff more async than before and maybe the problem could be caused by unfortunate timings. I would be very interested to hear your opinion about that.
...
Finally we found the cause of all our problems: it's the origin hack in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreen:
/* Hack to fix origin on Mac OS X 10.4 */
NSRect screenRect = [[nswindow screen] frame];
if (screenRect.size.height >= 1.0f) {
rect.origin.y += (screenRect.size.height - rect.size.height);
}
If we comment this one out our game and testdraw2 do behave correctly.
It turns out that if a window is not fully contained in the screen, it's screen property becomes zero and therefore we saw a zero when printing the backing scale factor (although it's not clear why it became nonzero later).
We suggest to add a runtime check which skips this code for 10.15 (or possibly earlier if you happen to know that the hack is not needed for certain older versions).
More info: consider the line
NSRect screenRect = [[nswindow screen] frame];
in Cocoa_SetWindowFullscreen. We found that this rect has the dimensions of the desktop
on our OS X 10.15 setup. This is true both for the success case and the fail case. It seems as the success case is actually a fail case in disguise.
On the other Mac with OS X 10.14 the same rect has the dimension of the newly created screen. This is what I would expect, because at that time the window has already been created successfully and there should be a newly created screen associated to the window.
What are the cases in which the whole origin conversion code for the fullscreen case is supposed to have a non-trivial result?
Today we found that if we print the dimensions of [nswindow screen] later, then we find them to be correct. So the conclusion seems to be that OS X 10.15 does indeed do the window/screen setup more async than before and that the origin correction code uses the [nswindow screen] at a time where the window/screen setup isn't finalized yet.
It was done to allow hotkey resizing of borderless windows, but Windows will sometimes draw it, regardless of our WM_* message handling. See bug 4466 for more details.

When using Win10 on-screen keyboard (tooltip.exe), the left and right cursor keys in it do not produce SDLK_LEFT and SDLK_RIGHT events.
Windows messages generated by the on-screen keyboard, for some reason, have their scancodes set to zeroes. Here is the log from Spy++:
WM_KEYDOWN nVirtKey:VK_LEFT cRepeat:1 ScanCode:00 fExtended:0 fAltDown:0 fRepeat:0 fUp:0
WM_KEYUP nVirtKey:VK_LEFT cRepeat:1 ScanCode:00 fExtended:0 fAltDown:0 fRepeat:1 fUp:1
Regular physical keyboard produces VK_LEFT (ScanCode:4B) and VK_RIGHT (ScanCode:4D) which are interpreted correctly.
With on-screen keyboard, the switch statement in VKeytoScancode() does not check for VK_LEFT and VK_RIGHT, returning SDL_SCANCODE_UNKNOWN, which in turn does not get mapped to anything (because the scan codes are zeroes).

Likewise for the GLES1 and GLES2 renderers.
This solves the missing pixel at the end of a line and removes all the
heuristics for various platforms/drivers. It's possible we could still use
GL_LINE_STRIP with this and save some vertex buffer space, assuming this
doesn't upset some driver somewhere, but this seems to be a clean fix that
makes the GL renderers match the software renderer output.

* Remove triple buffering support. As far as I can tell, this goes against the libdrm API; the EGL implementations themselves control the buffering. Removing it isn't absolutely necessary as it seemingly works on the Pi at least, but I noticed this while doing my work and explained my reasoning in the commit.
* Replace the crtc_ready logic which allocates an extra bo to perform the initial CRTC configuration (which is required before calling drmModePageFlip) with a call to drmModeSetCrtc after the front and back buffers are allocated, avoiding this allocation.
* Standardized the SDL_*Data variable names and null checks to improve readability. Given that there were duplicate fields in each SDL_*Data structure, having generic names such as "data" at times was very confusing.
* Removed unused fields from the SDL_*Data structures and moves all display related fields out of SDL_VideoData and into SDL_DisplayData. Not required since the code only supports a single display right now, but this was helpful in reading and understanding the code initially.
* Implement KMSDRM_GetDisplayModes / KMSDRM_SetDisplayMode to provide dynamic modeset support.
These changes have been tested on a Raspberry Pi 4 and a Dell XPS laptop with an HD 520.
As an update, I went back over the triple buffer changes and left them in. I didn't entirely get the code originally, I had just seen it calling KMSDRM_gbm_surface_lock_front_buffer twice for a single swap and had removed it because I was paranoid of bugs stemming from it while working on the modeset changes.
I've made a few small changes to the logic that had thrown me off originally and rebased the changes:
* The condition wrapping the call to release buffer was incorrect.
* The first call to KMSDRM_gbm_surface_lock_front_buffer has been removed. I don't understand why it existed.
* Added additional comments describing what was going on in the code (as it does fix the buffer release pattern of the original code before it).

Dualshock4 on bluetooth need 78 bytes for the rumble data while SDL_HIDAPI_RumbleRequest can only hold 64 bytes.
'volatile' is not meant for thread synchronization.
The list of rumble request could grow infinitely if user call SDL_JoystickRumble too much. The documentation says "Each call to this function cancels any previous rumble effect", so overwriting pending request seem like a good idea.
This fixes a crash whereby SDL could crash on macOS/Darwin, if and when a
USB game controller gets unplugged. SDL was not retaining a reference
to the controller's OS/IOKit-provided 'device object', and was capable
of trying to use it, after a device was hot-unplugged.
There is now a thread that handles all HIDAPI rumble requests and a lock that guarantees that we're not reading and writing the device at the same time.
The index and indices were swapped; Which is fine as long as there are
no gaps in the ABS_HAT* event availability but otherwise things do get confused.

To be precise, this is about *desktop OpenGL* on X11. For OpenGL ES, EGL is already used (as it's the only way to get an OpenGL ES context), as Sylvain noted above.
To shine some light on why this is needed:
In 99% of all cases, using GLX on X11 is fine, even though it's effectively deprecated in favor of EGL [1]. However, there's at least one use case that *requires* the OpenGL context being created with EGL instead of GLX, and that's DRM_PRIME interoperability: The function glEGLImageTargetTexture2DOES simply doesn't work with GLX. (Currently, Mesa actually crashes when trying that.)
Some example code:
https://gist.github.com/kajott/d1b29c613be30893c855621edd1f212e
Runs on Intel and open-source AMD drivers just fine (others unconfirmed), but with #define USE_EGL 0 (i.e. forcing it to GLX), it crashes. The same happens when using SDL for window and context creation.
The good news is that most of the pieces for EGL support on X11 are already in place: SDL_egl.c is pretty complete (and used for desktop OpenGL on Wayland, for example), and SDL_x11opengl.c has the aforementioned OpenGL-ES-on-EGL support. However, when it comes to desktop OpenGL, it's hardcoded to fall back to GLX.
I'm not advocating to make EGL the default for desktop OpenGL on X11; don't fix what ain't broken. But something like an SDL_HINT_VIDEO_X11_FORCE_EGL would be very appreciated to make use cases like the above work with SDL.

The current handling of Wayland mouse pointer events only handles wl_pointer.axis events, which, according to the Wayland documentation, deal with mouse wheel scroll events on a continuous scale. While this is reasonable for some input sources (e.g. touchpad two-finger scrolling), it is not for mouse wheel clicks which generate wl_pointer.axis events with large deltas.
This patch adds handling for wl_pointer.axis_discrete and wl_pointer.frame events and prefers to report SDL_MouseWheelEvent in discrete units if they are available. This means that for mouse wheel scrolling we count in clicks, but for touchpad two-finger scrolling we still use whatever units Wayland uses. This behaviour is closer to that of the X11 backend.
Since these events are only available since version 5 of the wl_seat interface, this patch also checks for this and falls back to the previous behaviour if its not available. I also had to add definitions for some of the pointer and keyboard events specified in versions 2-5 but these are just stubs and do nothing.
Make sure the thread is actually paused, and context backep-up, before
SurfaceView is destroyed (eg surfaceDestroyed() actually returns).
Add a timeout when surfaceDestroyed() is called, and check 'backup_done' variable.
It prevents crashes like:

If SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE is set, window size change is allowed, for instance when orientation changes (provided the hint allows it).

I took the liberty of rewriting this function a bit as it seemed to be unnecessary extended with ifs regarding flags (we can check everything in one pass which seem to be the thing which confuses Visual C++ 2019 as well).
Also, I have made CPU features an int instead of uint because if we check it against flags which are all ints it might as well just be int (no signed/unsigned bitwise comparison).

This kind of blending is rather quite useful and in my opinion should be available for all renderers. I do need it myself, but since I didn't want to use a custom blending mode which is supported only by certain renderers (e.g. not in software which is quite important for me) I did write implementation of SDL_BLENDMODE_MUL for all renderers altogether.
SDL_BLENDMODE_MUL implements following equation:
dstRGB = (srcRGB * dstRGB) + (dstRGB * (1-srcA))
dstA = (srcA * dstA) + (dstA * (1-srcA))

This sequence works across Microsoft, PowerA, PDP, and HORI controllers.
The newer Microsoft XBox firmware requires synchronizing the rumble sequence number, when SDL sees it after the initial connect
The Razer Wildcat controller requires waiting for init responses before continuing the initialization sequence.
The PDP Battlefield 1 controller takes over a second to be ready for initialization, and if initialization is attempted before then, it will fail.
Use XGetKeyboardControl to initialize the current XKeyboardState, and
skip XAutoRepeatOn invocation if global_auto_repeat is AutoRepeatModeOn.
This fixes SDL2 when the X11 client is untrusted.
Do not try to guess MIT_SHM extension availability from the string
returned by XDisplayName, use the appropriate API instead.
This fixes SDL2 inside hasher.

On my system, SDL_GetPowerInfo() returns -1 seconds of battery life left. I have quickly investigated that in my case SDL uses sys interface to get battery data. It tries to read "time_to_empty_now" file which is not always present. However, it is still possible to calculate remaining lifetime using "energy_now" and "power_now" files. This is what my simple patch (included as attachment) tries to accomplish.
Best wishes.

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.
Using Wii U GameCube USB adapter with multiple controllers attached and
restarting SDL input in a game results in extra joysticks with NULL name.
HIDAPI_CleanupDeviceDriver() shut down joysticks by iterating through
device->num_joysticks but each HIDAPI_JoystickDisconnected() decreases
device->num_joysticks and shifts joysticks array down. Resulting in only
half of controllers being shutdown. It worked with only 1 controller
attached though.
Disconnect HIDAPI device joystick 0 until there are none left.
Message in the log, when going to background:
"call to OpenGL ES API with no current context (logged once per thread)"
Because of SDL_WINDOWEVENT_MINIMIZED is sent from the Java Activity thread.
It calls SDL_RendererEventWatch(), _WindowEvent() and glFinish() without context.
Solution is to move sending of SDL_WINDOWEVENT_MINIMIZED to the SDL thread.
Added the functions SDL_JoystickFromPlayerIndex(), SDL_JoystickSetPlayerIndex(), SDL_GameControllerFromPlayerIndex(), and SDL_GameControllerSetPlayerIndex()
For some obscure reason, the order in which the libdrm/libgbm libraries
are loaded matters.
Without this fix, the first call to check_modesetting() will work and
load then unload all symbols properly, but the second call to this
function will lock up as soon as dlopen() is called on libdrm.
Swapping the order in which the libdrm and libgbm libraries are loaded
is enough to fix (or work around?) this issue.

I realized I made a minor mistake in my patch: I changed the constructor prototype for SDL_DisplayData, but didn't update the declaration in the .h file. The compiler and linker don't complain, but it would probably be best to fix in case a later change runs into a problem from the mismatch. I have attached a patch to fix this.

On a Dualshock 4 controller using hidapi driver, calling SDL_JoystickRumble with a duration too long (SDL_HAPTIC_INFINITY for example) causes the rumble to stop immediately.
This happens because of integer overflow on line 301 of SDL_hidapi_ps4.c
(https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/a3077169ad23/src/joystick/hidapi/SDL_hidapi_ps4.c#l301), which sets expiration time in the past.
When we initialize the controller it has an internal rumble sequence number, and if our rumble sequence number doesn't match that, rumble won't happen. To fix that we cycle through the range of sequence numbers, and at some point we'll match up with the controller's sequence number and it'll roll forward until it matches our next rumble sequence number.

There appears to be no way to directly access the display DPI on iOS, so as an approximation the DPI for the iPhone 1 is used as a base value and is multiplied by the screen's scale. This should at least give a ballpark number for the various screen scales. (based on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25756087/detecting-iphone-6-6-screen-sizes-in-point-values it appears that both 2x and 3x are used)
I have updated the patch to use a table of current devices and use a computation as a fallback. I have also updated the fallback computation to be more accurate.

Add SDL_HINT_VIDEO_EXTERNAL_CONTEXT hint to notify SDL that the graphics context is external. This disables the automatic context save/restore behavior on Android and avoids using OpenGL by default when SDL_WINDOW_VUKLAN isn't set.
When the application wishes to manage the OpenGL contexts on Android, this avoids cases where SDL unbinds the context and creates new contexts, which can interfere with the application's operation.
When using Vulkan and Metal renderer implementations, this avoids SDL forcing OpenGL to be enabled on certain platforms. While using the SDL_WINDOW_VULKAN flag can be used to achieve the same thing, it also causes Vulkan to be loaded. If the application uses Vulkan directly, this is not necessary, and fails window creation when using Metal due to Vulkan not being present. (assuming MoltenVK isn't installed)

Since OpenGL is deprecated on iOS, it is advantageous to be able to remove all OpenGL related code when building SDL for iOS. This patch adds the necessary #if checks to compile in this case.
SDL_SendWindowEvent will only send a RESTORED event if the window has
the minimized or maximized flag set. However, for a SHOWN event, it
will clear the minimized flag. Since the SHOWN event was being sent
first for a MapNotify event, the RESTORED event would never be sent.
Swapping the SendWindowEvent calls around fixes this.

Calling open() on input devices can generate device I/O which blocks
the main thread and causes dropped frames. Using stat() we can avoid
opening anything unless /dev/input has changed since we last polled.
We could have used something fancy like inotify, but it didn't seem
worth the added complexity for this uncommon non-udev case.

Currently, SDL on Cocoa macOS creates a rudimentary menu bar programmatically if none is already present when the app is registered during setup.
SDL could be much more easily and flexibly used on macOS if upon finding that no menus are currently in place, it first looked for the application's main menu nib or xib file and, if found, loaded that instead of programmatically building the menus.
This would then let developers simply drop in a nib file with a menu bar defined in it and it would be installed and used automatically.
Attached is a patch that does just this. It changes the SDL_cocoaevents.m file to:
* In Cocoa_RegisterApp(), before calling CreateApplicationMenus(), it calls a new function, LoadMainMenuNibIfAvailable(), which attempts to load and install the main menu nib file, using the nib name fetched from the Info.plist file. If that succeeds, LoadMainMenuNibIfAvailable() returns true; otherwise false.
* If LMMNIA() returns false, CreateApplicationMenus() is called to programmatically build the menus as before.
* Otherwise, we're done, and using the menus from the nib/xib file!
I made these changes to support a project I'm working on, and felt they were useful enough to be worth offering them for uplift. They should have zero impact on existing projects' behavior, but make Cocoa SDL development miles easier.
(note from PulkoMandy on Bugzilla #4442 about why this is a desirable patch:
"The event mask: note that the window and GL view run in their own thread
which I don't expect to be too much CPU bound, and will quickly pop these
messages and forward them to the main thread in our SDL code. Therefore the
B_NO_POINTER_HISTORY should be no problem, and is the default on Haiku
anyway (it was not in BeOS, but we changed that and added a
B_FULL_POINTER_HISTORY flag to request the old behavior explicitly). So, this
seems fine.")

The mappings for keyboard scancodes on Linux do not include keypad left and right parentheses (used on some Microsoft keyboard), keypad plus/minus, LANG1 and LANG2 (used on Korean keyboards), XK86MenuKB, and F20 (remapped to Audio Mic Mute in the usual X11 config).

I have written a program that, in the event that the user requests more MSAA samples than their hardware supports, attempts to gracefully fall back to the best MSAA available. This code works with my conventional OpenGL renderer, but if I change nothing about the code except to make it request an OpenGL ES profile instead, Xlib kills the program with an error that looks like:
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 4 (X_DestroyWindow)
Resource id in failed request: 0x5c00008
Serial number of failed request: 188
Current serial number in output stream: 193
To trigger the bug, attempt to create a window with the SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL flag, with SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK set to SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_ES, and with SDL_GL_MULTISAMPLESAMPLES set to any unsupported value. SDL_CreateWindow properly returns NULL, but at this point the program is already doomed. Xlib will shortly terminate the program with an error. Calling SDL_CreateWindow again will immediately trigger this termination.
I have attached a skeletal program that reproduces this bug for me. Replacing SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_ES with SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_COMPATIBILITY avoids the bug (but, obviously, doesn't create an OpenGL ES context).
As I suspected, the problem was with XDestroyWindow being called twice on the same window. The X11_CreateWindow function in src/video/x11/SDL_x11window.c calls SetupWindowData. If initialization fails after that point, XDestroyWindow gets called on the window by a subsequent call to X11_DestroyWindow. But, later in the same function, iff a GLES context is requested and initializing it fails, X11_XDestroyWindow (which wraps XDestroyWindow) is manually called. Shortly after, the intended call to X11_DestroyWindow occurs, which attempts to destroy the same window again. Boom.
(The above confusing summary involves three separate, similarly-named functions: XDestroyWindow, X11_DestroyWindow, X11_XDestroyWindow)
I have attached a simple patch that removes the redundant X11_XDestroyWindow calls. I've tested that XDestroyWindow still gets called for the windows in question, and that it only gets called once.
- _num_clips was not set in constructor, so a NULL _clips could be
mistakenly dereferenced.
- As _clips is accessible outside the class, it is not a good idea to
free/reallocate it. Try to limit this by reallocating only when it needs to
grow.

This can happen if a window is still grabbed when we try to move it, or if
the X11 ecosystem is just in a bad mood, I guess.
This makes sure that SDL will report the correct position for a window;
otherwise, SDL_GetWindowPosition will just report whatever the last
SDL_SetWindowPosition call requested, even if the window didn't actually move.

Seems to be a regression in this commit: https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/7fdbffd47c0e
SDL_CalculatePitch() was using format->BytesPerPixel, now it uses SDL_BYTESPERPIXEL().
The underlying issue is that "surface->format->BytesPerPixel" is *not* always the same as SDL_BYTESPERPIXEL(format);
BytesPerPixel defined as format->BytesPerPixel = (bpp + 7) / 8;
vs
#define SDL_BYTESPERPIXEL(format) ... (format & 0xff)
Because of SDL_pixels.h format definitions, one is giving a BytesPP 1, the other 0.
"This patch does the following:
* Instead of SDL_FillRects calling SDL_FillRect in a loop the opposite
happens -- SDL_FillRect (a specific case) calls SDL_FillRects (a general case)
with a count of 1
* The switch/case block is moved out of the loop -- it modifies the color
once and stores the fill routine in a pointer which is then used throughout
the loop"
Fixes Bugzilla #4674.
The 10 ms delay effectively caps input polling at 100 Hz and rendering
at 100 FPS if applications use these functions in their event loop. The
delay may also lead to dropped frames even at 60 FPS due if they are
unlucky enough to hit the delay and rendering takes longer than 6 ms.
fix building with Mesa 19.2
With Mesa 19.2 building fails with:
/include/GLES/gl.h:63:25: error: conflicting types for 'GLsizeiptr'
The same type is defined in include/SDL_opengl.h for OpenGL and the two
headers should not be included at the same time.
This was just never noticed because the same header guard '__gl_h_' was
used. This was changed in Mesa. The result is this error.
Fix this the same way GLES2 already handles this: Don't include the GLES
header when the OpenGL header was already included.

The X11 target sets mouse->last_x and last_y in EnterNotify and then calls
SDL_SendMouseMotion(), which throws away the new position because it matches
the mouse->last_x and last_y we just set, meaning that if the pointer is
in the window when it created, SDL_GetMouseState() will report a position of
0,0 until a MotionNotify event (the pointer moves) arrives and corrects the
mouse state.
Mostly fixes Bugzilla #1612.

The LE transformation for vec_perm has an implicit assumption that the
permutation is being used to reorder vector elements (in this case 4-byte
integer word elements), not to reorder bytes within those elements. Although
this is legal behavior, it is not anticipated by the transformation performed
by the compilers.
This causes pygame-1.9.1 test failure on PPC64LE because blitted pixmaps are

A long time ago, it was possible to play neverball on Linux using the accelerometer found in HP laptops.
The kernel exposes the accelerometer as a joystick (/dev/input/jsX) as well as an evdev device (/dev/input/eventX). I guess it worked fine when SDL was using the js interface, but then stopped working here: http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/fdaeea9e7567
Looking at current code which uses udev to discover joysticks, it looks for the udev tag ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK.
However udev's internal input_id logic specifically tags accelerometers as ID_INPUT_ACCELEROMETER and nothing else.
This looks like a good fit for SDL_HINT_ACCELEROMETER_AS_JOYSTICK.

To reproduce:
1. Run any SDL-based program with a Wayland compositor, orphaning it so that it doesn't have an immediate parent process. (For example, from a terminal, running `supertux2 & disown`.) The program should use the wayland backend, i.e. by setting environment variable SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland.
2. Kill the compositor process.
Results:
- The SDL program will keep running.
Expected results:
- The SDL program should close. (What close should mean here, I'm not sure - is injecting an SDL_Quit the appropriate action when a video driver disconnects?)
Build data:
2019-06-22, hg tip (12901:bf8d9d29cbf1), Linux, can reproduce with sway, weston, and other Wayland oompositors.

As I have seen, SDL implements its own command line parser for Windows in SDL_windows_main.c. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to allow command line arguments with trailing backslashes if quoting is required.
Usually, when you write an application that gets command line arguments passed as argc and argv, the parsing is done by parse_cmdline. The Windows API also provides the function CommandLineToArgvW, so an application can parse itself if only the command line string is provided. Both functions behave almost identically according to their documentation. If the argument "\\" (including the quotes) is passed, they both turn it into a single backslash.
The SDL command line parser on the other hand doesn't recognize the second quote character as the closing character in this example and therefore includes it in the parsed argument. The parser does not count the number of backslashes preceding a quote. It always treats a quote as escaped if a backslash is in front of it. Therefore, it should be impossible to quote and escape an argument correctly, if it has a trailing backslash and contains characters that require quoting.
Of course, each application is allowed to implement its own parsing rules, so SDL is free to do so. But the problem I see is that there are arguments, that are impossible to be passed to the parser correctly, as I described above. Is there a reason, why SDL does not simply use CommandLineToArgvW instead of implementing its own parser?
Here are some links that show that correct argument parsing, as it is usually done in Windows, is quite complicated:

Unlike iOS and macOS, tvOS does not have any persistent local storage. In fact, the ApplicationSupport directory pointed to by the existing Cocoa GetPrefPath() throws an error whenever any attempt is made to access it. To get any local storage on an Apple TV, our only option is to use a temporary cache directory.
This patch changes the tvOS PrefPath to this cache directory and also logs a critical warning that this if developers want their save data to persist across game sessions, they must use some form of iCloud storage.

I notice that, somehow, when locking the mouse into place(using SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode), somehow at least the movement information gets through to both mouse movement and touch movement events?
My app handles both, so when moving a touched finger accross the app(using RDP from an Android device) I see the mouse moving inside the app when it shouldn't(meaning that the touch movement is ignored properly by the app(press-location dependant) but the mouse movement is still performed due to the mouse movement events)?

"030000006f0e00001304000000010000,Generic X-Box pad,a:b0,b:b1,back:b6,dpdown:h0.4,dpleft:h0.8,dpright:h0.2,dpup:h0.1,guide:b8,leftshoulder:b4,leftstick:a0,lefttrigger:a2,leftx:a0,lefty:a1,rightshoulder:b5,rightstick:a3,righttrigger:a5,rightx:a3,righty:a4,start:b7,x:b2,y:b3,",
```
When running openmw I have a strange issue that the joysticks work for up and down movements but not for side to side. I managed to track this down to the side to side events being classified as joystick events instead of gamepad events.
I believe this is due to both "leftstick" and "leftx" being bound to "a0" which seems odd to me. If I change openmw's mappings to remove these the controller works as expected. I was hoping someone who knows a lot more than me (as I have only been exploring this today trying to fix my controller) would know what is happening
With multitouch, register to receive XI_Motion (which desctivates MotionNotify),
so that we can distinguish real mouse motions from synthetic one.
(bug 4690)
Windows generates fake raw mouse events for touchscreens for compatibility
with legacy apps that predate touch support in Windows. We already handle
touch events explicitly, so drop the synthetic events to avoid duplicates.
This time, we make anything we think is a MacBook trackpad report its touches
as SDL_MOUSE_TOUCHID, even though they're not _actually_ synthesized events,
and let all mouse input--even if the OS synthesized it from a multitouch
trackpad on our behalf--look like physical input. This is backwards from
reality, but produces the results most apps will expect.
Note that if you have a real touch device that doesn't appear to be the
trackpad, it'll produce real touch events with unique device ids, so it's
not a total loss here, but also note that the way we decide if it was the
trackpad is an imperfect heuristic; it happens to work out right now, but
it's not impossible that a real touchscreen could come to the Mac at some
point and (incorrectly?) call it a "mouse" input, etc.
But for now, good enough.
Fixes Bugzilla #4690.

The previous code first configured the period size using snd_pcm_hw_par-
ams_set_period_size_near. Then, it further narrowed the configuration
space by calling snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_size_near using a buffer
size of 2 times the _requested_ period size in order to try and get a
configuration with only 2 periods. If the configured period size was
larger than the requested size, the second call could inadvertently
narrow the configuration space to contain only a single period.
Rather than fixing the call to snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_size_near
to use a size of 2 times the configured period size, the code has been
changed to use snd_pcm_hw_params_set_periods_min in order to more
clearly explain the intent.

The bugfix in https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/ca9417a52f18 caused SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode() to begin failing on Vivante (Steam Link). Even though Vivante doesn't have a SetRelativeMouseMode() or WarpMouse() function, it's in relative mode already (because it uses evdev) so the function was actually working as intended.
I think providing a no-op SetRelativeMouseMode() function for Vivante is a reasonable fix. Since it's already getting relative events through evdev, it really is a no-op to "enter relative mode".
In fact, this is probably the right thing to do for all backends that use evdev (vivante, raspberry, and kmsdrm). Raspberry and kmsdrm both have WarpMouse() implementations so SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode() isn't failing there, but it still seems to make sense not to have to do the fake warping if they're evdev-based anyway.
"Starting with changeset 12433, the mouse cursor is not displayed on the
Raspberry Pi platform, due to a bug in the handling of the new
"global_cursor" in RPI_ShowCursor(). Currently, if cursor == global_cursor,
the function immediately returns 0. The function should not return here.
Instead, if cursor == global_cursor, it shouldn't try to hide the current
cursor and update global_cursor = cursor. However, it *should* still continue
through the rest of the function."
Fixes Bugzilla #4699.
The real problem is that SDL_atomic.c was built in thumb mode instead of ARM mode, which is required to use the mcr instruction on ARM platforms. Added a compiler error to catch this case so we don't generate code that does infinite recursion.
I also added a potentially better way to handle things on Linux ARM platforms, based on comments in the Chromium headers, which we can try out after 2.0.10 ships.

Hi, this patch breaks dpad/hat input on my PS4 controller. The attached patch restores functionality. Calling SDL_PrivateJoystickHat() at the end of BSD_JoystickUpdate was setting the hat state to zero on every kind of input, instead of just the HUG_DPAD events.
Using IOKit for this pops up a warning at startup on macOS 10.15 ("Catalina"),
asking the user to authorize the app to listen to all keyboard input in the
system, which is unacceptable.
I _think_ we were using IOKit under incorrect presumptions here; the Stack
Overflow link mentioned in it was complaining about not being able to use
flagsChanged to differentiate between left and right mod keys, but that's not
an issue for capslock.
It's also possible this code was trying to deal with capslock changing when
the window didn't have focus, but we handle this elsewhere now, if we didn't
at the time.
GetWindowText() wants you to tell it the size of the buffer--including the
terminating NULL char--but we weren't counting that last char, losing the
last char of the string in the process. This was only seen with the special
case of SDL_CreateWindowFrom() to use an existing native window, not
the usual SDL_CreateWindow() codepath.
Fixes Bugzilla #4696.
It causes the HIDAPI devices to always be opened on enumeration, which causes crashes in the Windows drivers when multiple applications are reading and writing at the same time. We can revisit this after 2.0.10 release.
The Nintendo USB GameCube Adapter has two USB connectors. Black for data
and grey for additional power for rumble. The Wii U and other software
require both cables to use rumble. The rumble is weaker without the
second USB cable. Other than that I don't know if there is any negative
side affects from using rumble with only one cable.

Patch to scan /dev/dri based on names rather than file type
Loading KMS/DRM on FreeBSD fails because the "available" code in the driver checks for character device nodes under /dev/dri and the /dev/dri/card* files are symlinks rather than device nodes nodes on FreeBSD. The symlink points to /dev/drm/0.
The attached patch counts /dev/dri/card* entries rather than directory entries which are character devices.

I think what happening with the software renderer is:
* you're somehow in background (so texture creation is not possible)
* it resizes and wants to push a SDL_WINDOWEVENT_SIZE_CHANGED
It call:
https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/a010811d40dd/src/render/SDL_render.c#l683
* GetOutputSize
* SW_GetOutputSize
* SW_ActivateRenderer
* SDL_GetWindowSurface
* SDL_CreateWindowFramebuffer which is mapped to SDL_CreateWindowTexture
and it ends up re-creating the surface/a texture, while being in background

There is an issue on the latest commit of the mercurial repo when SDL_THREADS_DISABLED is set:
src/core/linux/SDL_threadprio.c:79:28: error: unknown type name 'Sint64'; did you mean 'int'
It was originally added to work around an input event problem in the code of a specific app which mixed SDL and native UIViews, but that app solved its problems in a better manner since then.
Also implemented SDL_JoystickGetDevicePlayerIndex() on iOS and tvOS, and added support for reading the new menu button state available in iOS and tvOS 13.
(technically, this function never returns an error at this point, but since
it _does_ have an "uhoh, is this corrupt data?" comment that it ignores, we
should probably make sure we handle error cases in the future. :) )

Pressing a trigger button on a Steam Controller causes a segmentation fault both with stable version and latest mercurial head on Linux. I'm using the recent hid_steam kernel module with lizard_mode disabled (that is no keyboard/mouse emulation). I suspect this is what's happening: the driver exposes two hats. The two hats have indices 0 and 2. Inside linux/SDL_sysjoystick.c two hats are allocated in allocate_hatdata for joystick->hwdata->hats. In HandleHat function the hat parameter (that can be 2) is directly used as the index of the array that only has two elements, causing an out of bounds access. SDL is not expecting to have "holes" between hats indices.
The index 2 is calculated in HandleInputEvents() as (ABS_HAT2X - ABS_HAT0X) / 2 where ABS_HAT2X is the value associated to the hat inside the hid_steam module.

The attached patch adds support for single-touch evdev devices.
These devices report ABS_X, ABS_Y and BTN_TOUCH events. This patch sets them up as MT devices with a single slot and handles the appropriate messages.
This was to deal with broken vsync support in macOS 10.14, which we assumed
would remain broken indefinitely, but a later 10.14 released fixed it.
This is a loss of late-swap support, but there are several subtle problems
in our CVDiplayLink code that are also evaporating, to be fair.

Current code, search paths, and error messages are written to only consider MoltenVK on macOS as a Vulkan Portability implementation. It's not the only implementation available to the users. gfx-portability [1] has been shown to run a number of titles well, including Dota2, Dolphin Emulator, and vkQuake3, often out-performing MoltenVK in frame rate and stability (see Dolphin benchmark [2]).
There is no reason for SDL to be that specific, it's not using any MVK-specific functions other than the WSI initialization ("VK_MVK_macos_surface"). gfx-portability exposes this extension as well, and a more generic WSI extension is in process. It would be good if SDL was written in a more generic way that expect a Vulkan Portability library as opposed to MoltenVK specifically.

On iOS 12, creating a window with the SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN flag does not dim the home indicator or defer system gestures. The same goes for setting the SDL_HINT_IOS_HIDE_HOME_INDICATOR to "2" -- it has no effect at all.
I've tracked down the source of this misbehavior to a timing issue. The initial `setNeedsUpdate...` calls were happening too early and getting applied to the launch screen by mistake. In the attached patch, I've added a call to those functions right after the launch screen is hidden so that they apply to the main view controller instead. This appears to fix the issue, at least on my iPhone 6s Plus.

Attached is a minor cleanup patch. It changes the option name of one hint to something better, puts one or two more checks in, and adds explicit casting where warnings could appear otherwise.
I hope the naming of the hints and their options is acceptable. It would be kind of awkward to change them after they get released with an official SDL version.

I had a look at this and made some additions to SDL_wave.c.
The attached patch adds many checks and error messages. For some reason I also added A-law and ?-law decoders. Forgot exactly why... but hey, they're small.
The WAVE format is seriously underspecified (at least by the documents that are publicly available on the internet) and it's a shame Microsoft never put something better out there. The language used in them is so loose at times, it's not surprising the encoders and decoders behave very differently. The Windows Media Player doesn't even support MS ADPCM correctly.
The patch also adds some hints to make the decoder more strict at the cost of compatibility with weird WAVE files.
I still think it needs a bit of cleaning up (Not happy with the MultiplySize function. Don't like the name and other SDL code may want to use something like this too.) and some duplicated code may be folded together. It does work in this state and I have thrown all kinds of WAVE files at it. The AFL files also pass with it and some even play (obviously just noise). Crafty little fuzzer.
Any critique would be welcome. I have a fork of SDL with a audio-loadwav branch over here if someone wants to use the commenting feature of Bitbucket:
https://bitbucket.org/ChliHug/SDL
I also cobbled some Lua scripts together to create WAVE test files:

On Android, if you set no attribute using SDL_GL_SetAttribute(), and try to create a SDL Render OpenGLES 1:
- it loads first by default GLESv2 libraries
- creates the rendere OpenGLES 1
- recreates the Window to have a context 1.1 ( https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/4db4cfd59470/src/render/opengles/SDL_render_gles.c#l298 )
But it doesn't unload libraries, then reload GLESv1 lib. So the SDL_Renderer OpenGLES 1 is working with GLES 2 libs, which seems inconsistent.
If you, at first, set
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK, SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_ES);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION, 1);
SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION, 1);
It will correctly load GLES v1 libraries.
Here's a small patch to reload egl libs when SDL_RecreateWindow() is called.
It fixes the issue, also the case from bug 4042
( SDL_RecreateWindow() is used by SDL_Renderer gl, gles1, gles2. )

There are many cases which are not able to be handled by SDL's audio conversion routines, including too low (negative) rate, too high rate (impossible to allocate).
This patch aims to report such issues early and handle others in a graceful manner. The "INT32_MAX / RESAMPLER_SAMPLES_PER_ZERO_CROSSING" value is the conservative approach in terms of what can _technically_ be supported, but its value is 4'194'303, or just shy of 4.2MHz. I highly doubt any sane person would use such rates, especially in SDL2, so I would like to drive this limit further down, but would need some assistance to do that, as doing so would have to introduce an arbitrary value. Are you OK with such approach? What would a good value be? Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-resolution_audio) lists 96kHz as the highest sampling rate in use, even if I quadruple it for a good measure, to 384kHz it's still an order of magnitude lower than 4MHz.
If IMA ADPCM format chunk was too short, InitIMA_ADPCM() parsing it
could read past the end of chunk data. This patch fixes it.

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_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

In src/joystick/linux/SDL_sysjoystick.c:
The ConfigJoystick function's axes detection starts with a for loop using an index i for Linux's axes names. When i gets to ABS_HAT0X, it's set to ABS_HAT3Y and a continue statement appears, to skip the hats. This makes sense, as SDL handles hats separately from axes.
However, in PollAllValues, *two* indices are used: a and b. Both start out the same, and remain so until the hats are reached. At that point, a becomes identical to the i from ConfigJoystick's loop, but b is equal to a - (ABS_HAT3Y - ABS_HAT0X), or a - 8.
While all the joystick->hwdata->abs_* structures in ConfigJoystick used i - which would here be a - as both the index and the ioctl argument, PollAllValues uses b for the structure index and a as the ioctl argument.
It would appear, however, that no joystick HAS such axes, and that the b index is entirely unnecessary.
I tested three separate joysticks, and while that was far from a complete listing, I was unable to find a joystick with an axis above 0x08.

When using a Dualshock 4 controller (model numbers CUH-ZCT1U and CUH-ZCT2U), pressing anywhere on the center touchpad does not send an SDL_JOYBUTTONDOWN event. I have verified this with testjoystick:
Repro steps:
1. Plug in a DS4 over USB
2. Compile testjoystick and run: testjoystick.exe 0
3. Press and hold the touchpad. Observe that no lime green box appears
Expected behavior:
A lime green box appears while the touchpad is pressed.
Notes:
I've attached a patch here that works on my PC and produces the expected behavior in testjoystick, for both DS4 model numbers I listed earlier.
If I understand correctly, by exposing this as a joystick button, the gamecontroller API mapping can be modified with a change to gamecontrollerdb.txt in the future.

We've noticed that if you are playing audio on Windows via the WASAPI interface and you unplug and reconnect the device a few times the program hangs.
We've debugged the problem down to
static void
WASAPI_WaitDevice(_THIS)
{
... snip ...
if (WaitForSingleObjectEx(this->hidden->event, INFINITE, FALSE) == WAIT_OBJECT_0) {
... snip ...
}
This WaitForSingleObjectEx does not havbe a time out defined, so it hangs there forever.
Our suggested fix we found was to include a time out of say 200mSec
We have done quite a bit of testing with this fix in place on various hardware configurations and it seems to have resolved the issue.
The Nintendo USB GameCube adapter has four controller ports. Return
the port number as 0 to 3 from SDL_JoystickGetPlayerIndex() and
SDL_JoystickGetDevicePlayerIndex().

The NetBSD audio driver has a few problems. Lots of obsolete code, and extremely bad performance and stuttering.
I have a patch in NetBSD's package system to improve it. This is my attempt to upstream it.
The changes include:
* Removing references to defines which are never used.
* Using the correct structures for playback and recording, previously they were the wrong way around.
* Using the correct types ('struct audio_prinfo' in contrast to 'audio_prinfo')
* Removing the use of non-blocking I/O, as suggested in #3177.
* Removing workarounds for driver bugs on systems that don't exist or use this driver any more.
* Removing all usage of SDL_Delay(1)
* Removing pointless use of AUDIO_INITINFO and tests that expect AUDIO_SETINFO to fail when it can't.
These changes bring its performance in line with the DSP audio driver.

When num lock is on, the scancode reported for numpad 5 is SDL_SCANCODE_KP_5, which is correct. However, when num lock is off, windows reports the VK_CLEAR virtual key code, which is incorrectly translated into SDL_SCANCODE_CLEAR inside of the VKeytoScancode(WPARAM vkey) function.

I was trying to use SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() to ensure my audio latency didn't get too high while streaming data in from the network. If I get more than N frames of audio queued, I know that the network is giving me more data than I can play and I need to drop some to keep latency low.
This doesn't work well on WASAPI out of the box, due to the addition of GetPendingBytes() to the amount of queued data. As a terrible hack, I loop 100 times calling SDL_Delay(10) and SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() before I ever call SDL_QueueAudio() to get a "baseline" amount that I then subtract from SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() later. However, because this value isn't actually a constant, this hack can cause SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() - baselineSize to be < 0. This means I have no accurate way of determining how much data is actually queued in SDL's audio buffer queue.
The SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() documentation says: "This is the number of bytes that have been queued for playback with SDL_QueueAudio(), but have not yet been sent to the hardware." Yet, SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() returns > 0 value when SDL_QueueAudio() has never been called.
Based on that documentation, I believe the current behavior contradicts the documented behavior of this function and should be changed in line with Boris's patch.
I understand that exposing the IAudioClient::GetCurrentPadding() value is useful, but a solution there needs to take into account what of that data is silence inserted by SDL and what is actual data queued by the user with SDL_QueueAudio(). Until that happens, I think the best approach is to remove the GetPendingBytes() call until SDL is able to keep track of queued data to make sense of it. This would make SDL_GetQueuedAudioSize() possible to use accurately with WASAPI.
Closing the window is asynchronous, but we free the window data immediately,
so we can get an updateLayer callback before the window is really destroyed which
will cause us to access the freed memory.
Clearing the content view will cause it to be immediately released, so no further
updateLayer callbacks will occur.

Currently SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface picks first valid format, and do a conversion.
format = renderer->info.texture_formats[0];
for (i = 0; i < renderer->info.num_texture_formats; ++i) {
if (!SDL_ISPIXELFORMAT_FOURCC(renderer->info.texture_formats[i]) &&
SDL_ISPIXELFORMAT_ALPHA(renderer->info.texture_formats[i]) == needAlpha) {
format = renderer->info.texture_formats[i];
break;
It could try to find a better format, for instance :
if SDL_Surface has no Amask, but a colorkey :
if surface fmt is RGB888, try to pick ARGB8888 renderer fmt
if surface fmt is BGR888, try to pick ABGR8888 renderer fmt
else
try to pick the same renderer format as surface fmt
if no format has been picked, use the fallback.
I think it goes with bug 4290 fastpath BlitNtoN
when you expand a surface with pixel format of size 24 to 32, there is a fast path possible.
So with this issue:
- if you have a surface with colorkey (RGB or BGR, not palette), it takes a renderer format where the conversion is faster.
(it avoids, if possible, RGB -> ABGR which means switching RGB to BGR)
- if you have a surface ABGR format, it try to take the ABGR from the renderer.
(it avoids, if possible, ABGR -> ARGB, which means switch RGB to BGR)

Hi,
If a gamepad lists the Dpad as 4 buttons (Dpad Up,Down, Left, Right) like with the Xbox 360 gamepad / XInput report descriptor used by OpenBSD (https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/dev/usb/uhid_rdesc.h#L184), this is not recognized by the SDL BSD backend and no hat or any other listing for the D-pad exists, e.g. in sdl2-jstest (https://gitlab.com/sdl-jstest/sdl-jstest).
The attached diff fixes this and makes the D-pad on my Xbox 360 and Logitech F310 controllers usable. It adds a hat to nhats when usage HUG_DPAD_UP is found, reads the state of the D-pad buttons into array dpad[], and turns the value of dpad[] into an SDL hat direction (dpad_to_sdl()).
Tested and works with Xbox 360 controller and Logitech F310 in XInput mode. Software-side tested with sdl2-jstest and Owlboy where this worked without problems or regressions.
I don't know if this would be applicable to other *BSDs and don't have an install to test it with, therefore wrapped it in __OpenBSD__ ifdefs.
Thanks,

Removed incorrect call to SDL_SendWindowEvent(window, SDL_WINDOWEVENT_MOVED, x, y);
If the position of the window isn't adjusted in the SetWindowPosition() call, then sending the window event would have no effect because x and y equals the window x and y. If the position of the window is adjusted in the SetWindowPosition() call, then we don't want to clobber it with values that the user passed in.

OpenGLES2 SDL renderer has support for textures ARGB, ABGR, RGB and BGR, whereas OpenGL SDL renderer only had ARGB.

For X11 GenericEvents, the associated data is only available between a call to XGetEventData and the matching XFreeEventData, i.e. in X11_HandleGenericEvent. Trying to call XGetEventData a second time on the same event will fail, so an application that wants to inspect XInput2 events (e.g. for stylus pressure) has no way of retrieving its data from queued SYSWM events.
The attached patch (based on SDL-2.0.7-11629) sends SYSWM messages from X11_HandleGenericEvent while the data is still available, allowing client code to register an event filter/watcher and process the event inside the callback.
Vivante drivers use the VK_KHR_display extension for rendering directly
to the frame buffer. This patch adds support to the video driver for
Vulkan rendering using that method.
- Add an utility function SDL_Vulkan_Display_CreateSurface that creates
a surface using this extension. The display to use (if there are
multiple) can be overridden using the environment variable
"SDL_VULKAN_DISPLAY".
- Use this function in a new compilation unit SDL_vivantevideo.c,
which implements the SDL_VIDEO_VULKAN methods of the driver structure.

I've seen this on several devices including Moto Z running Android 7 and a Snapdragon 845 running Android 9.
What happens is as follows:
SDLActivity.onWindowFocusChanged(true) happens pretty early on, but it's before we've done SDL_CreateWindow and so Android_Window is 0x0 thus this message does not get sent:
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL SDL_JAVA_INTERFACE(nativeFocusChanged)(
JNIEnv *env, jclass cls, jboolean hasFocus)
{
SDL_LockMutex(Android_ActivityMutex);
if (Android_Window) {
__android_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_VERBOSE, "SDL", "nativeFocusChanged()");
SDL_SendWindowEvent(Android_Window, (hasFocus ? SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_GAINED : SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_LOST), 0, 0);
}
SDL_UnlockMutex(Android_ActivityMutex);
}
When the window does get created, in Android_CreateWindow it does this:
window->flags &= ~SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE; /* window is NEVER resizeable */
window->flags &= ~SDL_WINDOW_HIDDEN;
window->flags |= SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN; /* only one window on Android */
window->flags |= SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS; /* always has input focus */
/* One window, it always has focus */
SDL_SetMouseFocus(window);
SDL_SetKeyboardFocus(window);
The SDL_SetKeyboardFocus does send an SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_GAINED message, but it gets eaten in SDL_SendWindowEvent because we've forced SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS beforehand:
case SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_GAINED:
if (window->flags & SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS) {
return 0;
}
window->flags |= SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS;
SDL_OnWindowFocusGained(window);
break;
I can fix the problem if I comment out this line from Android_CreateWindow:
window->flags |= SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS; /* always has input focus */
I would propose that as a fix unless there is a reason not to.
Sylvain 2019-04-18 21:22:59 UTC
Changes:
- SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_GAINED and SDL_WINDOWEVENT_FOCUS_LOST are sent when the java method onWindowFocusChanged() is called.
- If we have support for MultiWindow (eg API >= 24), SDL event loop is blocked/un-blocked (or simply egl-backed-up or not), when java onStart()/onStop() are called.
- If not, this behaves like now, SDL event loop is blocked/un-blocked when onPause()/onResume() are called.
So if we have two app on screen and switch from one to the other, only FOCUS events are sent (and onPause()/onResume() are called but empty. onStart()/onStop() are not called).
The SDL app, un-focused, would still continue to run and display frames (currently the App would be displayed, but paused).
Like a video player app or a chronometer that would still be refreshed, even if the window hasn't the focus.
It should work also on ChromeBooks (not tested), with two apps opened at the same time.
I am not sure this fix Dan's issue. Because focus lost event triggers Minimize function (which BTW is not provided on android).

So, in addition, it would need to add by default SDL_HINT_VIDEO_MINIMIZE_ON_FOCUS_LOSS to 0.
So that the lost focus event doesn't try to minimize the window. And this should fix also the issue.
SDL_GetWindowDisplayMode was returning an incorrect result on iPhone Plus devices (tested on iOS 12.1/12.2). The problem was that the value returned by UIScreenMode was assumed to be the physical pixels on the display, rather than the scaled retina pixels. The fix is to use the scale returned by UIScreen.scale rather than the nativeScale.
java layer runs as if separate mouse and touch was 1,
Use SDL_HINT_MOUSE_TOUCH_EVENTS and SDL_HINT_TOUCH_MOUSE_EVENTS
for generating synthetic touch/mouse events
