This will hopefully be fixed in the future by having separate windows
for each X11-to-Wayland transfer, but until then, let's avoid a
compositor crash.
Previously, `transfer->incr` was being cleared on the next selection.
However, if the next selection was *also* incremental, it's possible
that `xwm_handle_selection_property_notify` would route us to
`xwm_get_incr_chunk` instead of `xwm_selection_get_data`.
Apart from reducing duplication, this has the positive side-effect of
allowing all deallocs to use
`xwm_selection_transfer_destroy_property_reply`, as opposed to the
latter and a mix of ad-hoc `free`s.
Previously, if the Wayland client died before an incremental transfer
was complete, the logs would be spammed by "write error to target fd" as
wlroots entered some control flow wherein it'd continually try
scheduling further writes to the already-dead pipe.
This commit contains no behavioral changes, but introduces explicit
handling for draining the X11 selection in case of Wayland client death.
If `xwm_data_source_write` failed, it's failed permanently. In fact, a
failing `xwm_data_source_write` sets `transfer->property_reply` to
null as part of its error handling.
Instead of relying on an indirect check (whether
`transfer->property_reply` is still non-null), explicitly use the return
value from `xwm_data_source_write`.
The `fd` is marked `O_NONBLOCK`, so `write` will never spuriously return
`EINTR`. Therefore, `write` failing is permanent, and we can return 0 to
make the return value meaningful.
Previously, wlr_xwm_selection_transfer.source_fd meant:
- the source of data in a Wayland -> X11 copy (good)
- the destination of data in a X11 -> Wayland copy (confusing)
This made reading through xwayland/selection/incoming.c difficult: in
many places, "source" actually means "destination".
Previously, any error would be masked by an internal isatty call:
24:31:48.174 [DEBUG] [wlr] [xwayland/selection/incoming.c:386] XCB_SELECTION_NOTIFY (selection=277, property=278, target=256)
24:31:48.174 [ERROR] [wlr] [xwayland/selection/incoming.c:30] write error to target fd: Inappropriate ioctl for device
This change tracks, for each wlr_seat_client, the most recent serial
numbers which were sent to the client. When the client makes a
selection request, wlroots now verifies that the serial number
associated with the selection request was actually provided to that
specific client. This ensures that the client that was most
recently interacted with always has priority for its copy selection
requests, and that no other clients can incorrectly use a larger serial
value and "steal" the role of having the copy selection.
Also, the code used to determine when a given selection is superseded
by a newer request uses < instead of <= to allow clients to make
multiple selection requests with the same serial number and have the
last one hold.
To limit memory use, a ring buffer is used to store runs of sequential
serial numbers, and all serial numbers earlier than the start of the
ring buffer are assumed to be valid. Faking very old serials is
unlikely to be disruptive.
Assuming all clients are correctly written, the only additional
constraint which this patch should impose is that serial numbers
are now bound to seats: clients may not receive a serial number
from an input event on one seat and then use that to request
copy-selection on another seat.
This makes compositors able to block and/or customize set_selection requests
coming from clients. For instance, it's possible for a compositor to disable
rich selection content (by removing all MIME types except text/plain). This
commit implements the design proposed in [1].
Two new events are added to wlr_seat: request_set_selection and
request_set_primary_selection. Compositors need to listen to these events and
either destroy the source or effectively set the selection.

This is a common interface that can be used for all primary selection
protocols, as discussed in [1]. A new function wlr_seat_set_primary_selection
is added to set the primary selection for all protocols.
The seat now owns again the source, and resets the selection to NULL when
destroyed.

This commits completely refactors wlr_gtk_primary_selection. The goal is to
remove gtk-primary-selection state from the seat and better handle inert
resources where it makes sense.
wlr_seat_client.primary_selection_devices has been removed and replaced by
wlr_gtk_primary_selection_device. This allows us to make offers inert when the
current selection is replaced.
wlr_seat_set_primary_selection has been removed because it relied on wlr_seat
instead of wlr_gtk_primary_selection_device_manager. A new function,
wlr_gtk_primary_selection_device_manager_set_selection (candidate for the
longest function name in wlroots) has been added. It doesn't take a serial
anymore as serial checking only makes sense for set_selection requests coming
from Wayland clients (serial checking is now done in the Wayland interface
implementation).
Since wlr_gtk_primary_selection_device_manager is now required to set the
selection, a new function wlr_xwayland_set_gtk_primary_selection_device_manager
(candidate number two for longest function name) has been added.
Devices are now made inert when the seat goes away.
Future work includes removing the last primary selection bits from the seat,
mainly wlr_seat.primary_selection_source and wlr_seat.events.primary_selection,
replacing those with new fields in wlr_gtk_primary_selection_device. Or maybe
we could keep those in the seat and replace them with a re-usable interface
(for future zwp_primary_selection_v1 support). We need to think how we'll sync
these three protocols (GTK, X11 and wayland-protocols).
