- an input device) or they are singleton objects that provide

-
- When a client creates a registry object, the registry object
- will emit a global event for each global currently in the
- registry. Globals come and go as a result of device or
- monitor hotplugs, reconfiguration or other events, and the
- registry will send out global and global_remove events to
- keep the client up to date with the changes. To mark the end
- of the initial burst of events, the client can use the
- wl_display.sync request immediately after calling
- wl_display.get_registry.

- A client can bind to a global object by using the bind
- request. This creates a client-side handle that lets the object
- emit events to the client and lets the client invoke requests on

- <interface name="wl_surface" version="4">
- <description summary="an onscreen surface">
- A surface is a rectangular area that is displayed on the screen.
- It has a location, size and pixel contents.
-
- The size of a surface (and relative positions on it) is described
- in surface-local coordinates, which may differ from the buffer
- coordinates of the pixel content, in case a buffer_transform
- or a buffer_scale is used.
-
- A surface without a "role" is fairly useless: a compositor does
- not know where, when or how to present it. The role is the
- purpose of a wl_surface. Examples of roles are a cursor for a
- pointer (as set by wl_pointer.set_cursor), a drag icon
- (wl_data_device.start_drag), a sub-surface
- (wl_subcompositor.get_subsurface), and a window as defined by a
- shell protocol (e.g. wl_shell.get_shell_surface).
-
- A surface can have only one role at a time. Initially a
- wl_surface does not have a role. Once a wl_surface is given a
- role, it is set permanently for the whole lifetime of the
- wl_surface object. Giving the current role again is allowed,
- unless explicitly forbidden by the relevant interface
- specification.
-
- Surface roles are given by requests in other interfaces such as
- wl_pointer.set_cursor. The request should explicitly mention
- that this request gives a role to a wl_surface. Often, this
- request also creates a new protocol object that represents the
- role and adds additional functionality to wl_surface. When a
- client wants to destroy a wl_surface, they must destroy this 'role
- object' before the wl_surface.
-
- Destroying the role object does not remove the role from the
- wl_surface, but it may stop the wl_surface from "playing the role".
- For instance, if a wl_subsurface object is destroyed, the wl_surface
- it was created for will be unmapped and forget its position and
- z-order. It is allowed to create a wl_subsurface for the same
- wl_surface again, but it is not allowed to use the wl_surface as
- a cursor (cursor is a different role than sub-surface, and role
- switching is not allowed).

- must be an integer multiple of the buffer_scale.
-
- The x and y arguments specify the location of the new pending

-
- Surface contents are double-buffered state, see wl_surface.commit.
-
- The initial surface contents are void; there is no content.
- wl_surface.attach assigns the given wl_buffer as the pending

- surface contents, and the size of the surface becomes the size
- calculated from the wl_buffer, as described above. After commit,
- there is no pending buffer until the next attach.
-
- Committing a pending wl_buffer allows the compositor to read the
- pixels in the wl_buffer. The compositor may access the pixels at

- will not access the pixels anymore, it will send the

- Indicates the end of a set of events that logically belong together.
- A client is expected to accumulate the data in all events within the
- frame before proceeding.
-
- All wl_pointer events before a wl_pointer.frame event belong
- logically together. For example, in a diagonal scroll motion the
- compositor will send an optional wl_pointer.axis_source event, two
- wl_pointer.axis events (horizontal and vertical) and finally a
- wl_pointer.frame event. The client may use this information to
- calculate a diagonal vector for scrolling.
-
- When multiple wl_pointer.axis events occur within the same frame,
- the motion vector is the combined motion of all events.
- When a wl_pointer.axis and a wl_pointer.axis_stop event occur within
- the same frame, this indicates that axis movement in one axis has
- stopped but continues in the other axis.
- When multiple wl_pointer.axis_stop events occur within the same
- frame, this indicates that these axes stopped in the same instance.
-
- A wl_pointer.frame event is sent for every logical event group,
- even if the group only contains a single wl_pointer event.
- Specifically, a client may get a sequence: motion, frame, button,
- frame, axis, frame, axis_stop, frame.
-
- The wl_pointer.enter and wl_pointer.leave events are logical events
- generated by the compositor and not the hardware. These events are
- also grouped by a wl_pointer.frame. When a pointer moves from one
- surface to another, a compositor should group the
- wl_pointer.leave event within the same wl_pointer.frame.
- However, a client must not rely on wl_pointer.leave and
- wl_pointer.enter being in the same wl_pointer.frame.

- The global interface exposing sub-surface compositing capabilities.
- A wl_surface, that has sub-surfaces associated, is called the
- parent surface. Sub-surfaces can be arbitrarily nested and create
- a tree of sub-surfaces.
-
- The root surface in a tree of sub-surfaces is the main
- surface. The main surface cannot be a sub-surface, because
- sub-surfaces must always have a parent.
-
- A main surface with its sub-surfaces forms a (compound) window.
- For window management purposes, this set of wl_surface objects is
- to be considered as a single window, and it should also behave as
- such.
-
- The aim of sub-surfaces is to offload some of the compositing work
- within a window from clients to the compositor. A prime example is
- a video player with decorations and video in separate wl_surface
- objects. This should allow the compositor to pass YUV video buffer
- processing to dedicated overlay hardware when possible.

- <description summary="sub-surface interface to a wl_surface">
- An additional interface to a wl_surface object, which has been
- made a sub-surface. A sub-surface has one parent surface. A
- sub-surface's size and position are not limited to that of the parent.
- Particularly, a sub-surface is not automatically clipped to its
- parent's area.
-
- A sub-surface becomes mapped, when a non-NULL wl_buffer is applied
- and the parent surface is mapped. The order of which one happens
- first is irrelevant. A sub-surface is hidden if the parent becomes
- hidden, or if a NULL wl_buffer is applied. These rules apply
- recursively through the tree of surfaces.
-
- The behaviour of a wl_surface.commit request on a sub-surface
- depends on the sub-surface's mode. The possible modes are
- synchronized and desynchronized, see methods
- wl_subsurface.set_sync and wl_subsurface.set_desync. Synchronized
- mode caches the wl_surface state to be applied when the parent's
- state gets applied, and desynchronized mode applies the pending
- wl_surface state directly. A sub-surface is initially in the
- synchronized mode.
-
- Sub-surfaces have also other kind of state, which is managed by
- wl_subsurface requests, as opposed to wl_surface requests. This
- state includes the sub-surface position relative to the parent
- surface (wl_subsurface.set_position), and the stacking order of
- the parent and its sub-surfaces (wl_subsurface.place_above and
- .place_below). This state is applied when the parent surface's
- wl_surface state is applied, regardless of the sub-surface's mode.
- As the exception, set_sync and set_desync are effective immediately.
-
- The main surface can be thought to be always in desynchronized mode,
- since it does not have a parent in the sub-surfaces sense.
-
- Even if a sub-surface is in desynchronized mode, it will behave as
- in synchronized mode, if its parent surface behaves as in
- synchronized mode. This rule is applied recursively throughout the
- tree of surfaces. This means, that one can set a sub-surface into
- synchronized mode, and then assume that all its child and grand-child
- sub-surfaces are synchronized, too, without explicitly setting them.
-
- If the wl_surface associated with the wl_subsurface is destroyed, the
- wl_subsurface object becomes inert. Note, that destroying either object
- takes effect immediately. If you need to synchronize the removal
- of a sub-surface to the parent surface update, unmap the sub-surface
- first by attaching a NULL wl_buffer, update parent, and then destroy
- the sub-surface.
-
- If the parent wl_surface object is destroyed, the sub-surface is
- unmapped.

- a sub-surface. The wl_surface is unmapped.

- <description summary="set sub-surface to synchronized mode">

-
- In synchronized mode, wl_surface.commit on a sub-surface will
- accumulate the committed state in a cache, but the state will
- not be applied and hence will not change the compositor output.
- The cached state is applied to the sub-surface immediately after
- the parent surface's state is applied. This ensures atomic
- updates of the parent and all its synchronized sub-surfaces.
- Applying the cached state will invalidate the cache, so further
- parent surface commits do not (re-)apply old state.

- <request name="set_desync">
- <description summary="set sub-surface to desynchronized mode">
- Change the commit behaviour of the sub-surface to desynchronized
- mode, also described as independent or freely running mode.
-
- In desynchronized mode, wl_surface.commit on a sub-surface will
- apply the pending state directly, without caching, as happens
- normally with a wl_surface. Calling wl_surface.commit on the
- parent surface has no effect on the sub-surface's wl_surface
- state. This mode allows a sub-surface to be updated on its own.
-
- If cached state exists when wl_surface.commit is called in
- desynchronized mode, the pending state is added to the cached
- state, and applied as a whole. This invalidates the cache.
-
- Note: even if a sub-surface is set to desynchronized, a parent
- sub-surface may override it to behave as synchronized. For details,
- see wl_subsurface.
-
- If a surface's parent surface behaves as desynchronized, then
- the cached state is applied on set_desync.
