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

Best regards.
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.
OpenGL leaves the final line segment open, SDL's software renderer does not,

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.

Add a minimal my_gradd.h containing structures and constants only used
by SDL_os2vman.c -- based on public knowledge from around the internet
including pages from http://www.osfree.org and http://www.edm2.com .
Original code assigned MCIMixSetup.ulSamplesPerSec value to it, but it
is just the freq... We now change spec->samples only either if it is 0
or we changed the frequency, by picking a default of ~46 ms at desired
frequency (code taken from SDL_audio.c:prepare_audiospec()).
With this, the crashes I have been experiencing are gone.
- video: VideoBootStrap->available() is gone.
- thread: all important SDL_CreateThread internal data now put into
struct SDL_Thread: changes to SDL_SYS_CreateThread().
- events / video: SDL_SetDoubleClickTime() removed -- functionality
moved to SDL_mouse.c:SDL_MouseDoubleClickTimeChanged().
- video: struct SDL_VideoDevice-> CreateWindow and CreateWindowFrom
members renamed to CreateSDLWindow and CreateSDLWindowFrom

- Displays may have been added, removed or changed and all cached monitor
handles are invalidated as a result.
- Display events are handled in three steps:
1. Mark all currently know displays as invalid
2. Enumerate all displays, adding new ones and marking known displays as valid
3. Remove all displays still invalid after enumeration
- Display connect/disconnect events are sent when displays are added or removed
after initial setup

It is a protocol error to attempt to create a pointer confine (i.e.
`SDL_SetWindowGrab`) while a locked pointer is active, and vice-versa.
Instead of aborting due to a protocol error, this commit makes SDL
gracefully downgrade locked pointers to confines when appropriate.
We now handle HiDPI correctly, and touches are clamped to the viewport. So
if you are rendering to a logical 640x480 in a 720p window, and touch the
letterboxing at point (640,700), it will report the touch at (0.5,1.0) instead
of outside the documented range.
Previously the first card with non-empty connectors, encoders

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.

The two are only ever called together, and combining them makes it possible
to eliminate redundant symbol loading and redundant attempts to connect

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.
So that's what this small patch does.
Now, L?VE2D works perfectly well on the Raspberry Pi 3, instead of just segfaulting.

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.
Replacing "count" with "len" in the argument list for SDL_memcpy in DirectFB_QueueFillRects fixes problem.

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 N30 Pro 2
* 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.
