so there was a fair bit of stick-tape and chewing gum in putting the
wl screensaving in e_Screensaver.c ... it thus was very different to
the x stuff. it SHOULd have had e_comp_wl handle idle timeout like the
xserver did and then glue in the same way the x code did to be
conistsent. instead of trying to fix the chewing gum ball there in
e_Screensver.c to find the logic holes ... i made it work like the
code as indicated above. this now makes it work reliably. dim
reliably. lock reliably. it even doesnt exit on ctrl+alt+backspace
once desklock is up now to allow locks to really lock... (dont use
locks during dev then if you need ctl+alt+backspace).
at least now all this dpms/screensavwr/brightness/backlight/lock goop
is consistent between wl and x11 and wl seems reliabkle now (to me).
knock this off as an annoyance fixed.
@fix
so in the non-systemd case there was a current e sys action stored and
never cleared. e keeps thinking it is in the midddle of an action as
it was not cleared. the systemd code path was different and didn't
suffer from this. this fixes that so the non-systemd path works too.
@fix
if theme doesn't support, fade-in will not happen (it'll just appear),
but if it does... e will fade to black for a restart, then fade back
in nice and cleanly.
since now we basically bring everything up THEN start rendering once
we hit the main loop there is no point having init splash strings
anymore. it is no longer an external process. until e's compositor is
up you will see nothing anyway. if it is up these days we've finished
init as a smoothing out of startup has move everything before main
loop starts. so this code is all kind of useless, thus remove. cleanup
code.
if systemd suspended and we hand't triggered it, and desklock on
suspend is enabled, then lock there and then because we need to. of
course you need systemd/logind... but hey... i guess without you live
with less... :) fixes logic hole
@fix
be both explicit in killing it off on shutdown as well as using die
with parent flags as well. this seems ot have fixed or reduced the
"system cant shut down some job still alive in some session" problem.
@fix
so when e was e.g. shutting down the system it'd sometimes - or all
the time, restart and not shut down. this fixes that. e was being sent
a HUP signal while doing this causing e to go "ooh HUP - i shall
restart" which si what daemons without a controlling tty do with
signals commonly. this isn't what we want from e though in this case,
so delay itby a bit and ignore if we're in the process of logging
out/halting etc.
this really only affects wayland mode.
@fix
so i spent a few days lopening and closing the lids of a few laptops,
plugging and unplugging external screens in, plugging and unplugging
ac power and doing lots of combinations of these. this led to a whole
slew of interrealted issues that were pretty hard to detangle into
just single issues, so this is all one blob.
this fixes:
1. if a lid close gets a monitor unplug from x or e's randr wants to
unplug then this lead to slow unsuspend or lid open times as e was
reconfirguring the screens entireluy on lid open. dont do that. just
keep things as is, unless we have an external display, then reconfigure.
2. we had 2 systems monitoring for a wake. a poller and a systemd
event. this was redundant and lead to interesting things in the debug
output, so clean that up and on systemd systsems use the systemd wake
events
3. some systems dont shut down their screens on lid close, so they
stay open until screensaver timeouts kick in. bad. so also force the
screen to go off on lid close (if the lid screen is the only one we
have).
4. x seems to have a bug where if you force dpms off etc. to turn the
screen on, it still thinks it's of and wont dpms off again after that
until you eother give some input to have the wake event make the dpms
system in x think its now time to go on, or you toggle dpms on and
off, so i found toggling tricks x into thinking the right thing.
this makes some debugging also be consistent with printfs.
all in all i have a pretty well supported laptop doing swimmingly with
e and a not so well designed (acpi dsdt - missing many events like
acpi battery ones, ac power change acpi events, missing logic to power
off a closed screen in firmware or hardware and leaving it to sw...
not this laptop has a tocuh panel and extra fun points awarded since
the touch panel doesnt shut off on lid close... AND it reprots touch
events when it closes as it touches the keys/case... hooray! that has
another work-around local to my system, as efl has no mechanism to do
this).
@fix
so if you closed the lid ANd didn't have external screens ANd had ac
plugged in ... e would suspend even if youdidn't have "suspend on ac"
checked in blanking dialog. respect this and handle it properly.
@fix
side note... i've notced acpid no longer reporting lid events on one
of my systems. this is very sucky. you now have to open
/dev/input/event2 (this may vary from device to device) to get lid
events... it's an input device. this means elput needs to start doing
this as we cant get power button or lid events anymore .... and we may
have to do this for x11 too.
this laptop wakes from suspend if you plug or unplug it while
suspended. this leads to bad things. fix nthis by checking lid state
and resuspending if this happens.
@fix
This reverts commit 7bc179da5a.
this now totally broke the glitch fix and it now animates in reverse
on suspend and does nothng on resume... testing might be a good idea
beforehand...
this requires we have to force dpms on to reduce power. to avoid
glitches with the pointer staying around in x we need to support
suspending it too so it hides cleanly like the screen dims or undims.
also use the new powersave freeze mode to do this.
note that i've tested this on s3 supporting laptops and non-s3 and it
"works for me". it may require more testing and work. there is more to
power saving than just this as well but for now that's out of scope as
you have to mess with linux device autosuspend timeouts and a bunch
more (wowlan ... blahblah).
i need to find the source of the intermittent wakeups too in e. there
is a long lived timeout (8-ish seconds?) but more specifically e keeps
waking up from fd's and then reading /sys stuff about battery - some
event is causing us to do this... maybe to suspend this or make
battery checking very rare when in freeze mode (or screen off) etc.
so this fixes some glitches as well as supports a new way of sleeping
"alive" when hardware literally doesnt support normal s3 sleep... so
kind of a fix with a feature.
when resume is called we are just notifing the theme that e is back
there. There is no E_Sys_Action for it, so its enough for now to just
call the backlight to fade back in and emit the signal to the theme.
This should fix e blocking sys actions
So yeah, I've literally used sed to replace every occurrence of
ecore_time_add() with ecore_timer_loop_add() because I'm reasonably
confident that no part of E has a legitimate need for timer based on the
exact current time.
It would be really nice if I'm not wrong. :)
The reason for this is the incredible spew of clock_gettime() calls I'm
seeing on an ARM system (that should have a vdso for gettime, but...)
This can amount to thousands of system calls per second.
#YOLO
this shortens logout timeout for "apps still hanging around" to 3
seconds meaning that within 3 seconds something should complain that
logout is taking too long so you know your logout request actually
went through... and any app not responding in 3 seconds is likely
"bad" (swapped out, hung on blocking i/o or something or doing a "are
you sure" dialog thing).
so we have some dialog saying we're suspending/shutting down etc. etc.
and this is really pointless as comp already does a screen-wide effect
like fading out etc. and these dialogs were added long before we had a
compositor. there isn't much point anymore so remove them and let comp
deal with it.
this fixes some issues in the new randr2 code that made it not work
right with plug/unplug and lid close/open. now it does work right and
plugging/unplugging displays is seamless (if your driver does not give
plug/unplug events bind a key to update screen config acvtion and e
will figure it out when you hit the key).
@fix
this should fix T1988. after some looking here is what i think is
happening. he is asking the system (sysvinit or systemd) to
halt/reboot, but these end up killing the e process before it can save
its config that is lurking around still in ram as opposed to on disk,
so puttting in a config flush before beginning such a system action
will ensure everything is on disk.
there is only one E_Comp which can now be accessed by the e_comp global.
if you're editing a file with some uses of these deprecated functions, replace their usages with appropriate references to this variable
