2023-02-20backend/drm: add libliftoff interfaceSimon Ser
2023-02-13Switch IRC channel to #wlrootsSimon Ser
The #sway-devel channel is now for Sway development only. #wlroots is the new channel to use for wlroots. We were using #sway-devel mostly for histerical raisins. Nowadays many wlroots developers are not working on Sway. Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/issues/3586
2022-11-25backend/session: make optionalSimon Ser
Some compositors are not interested in wlr_session, for instance nested compositors. Disabling wlr_session removes the udev dependency.
2022-11-09backend/drm: use pnp.ids to fetch EDID datailliliti
2022-05-30build: make GBM optionalSimon Ser
Now that the DRM backend no longer depends on GBM, we can make it optional. The GLES2 renderer still depends on it because of our EGL device selection. This is useful for compositors with their own renderers, and for compositors using the Vulkan renderer.
2022-01-09readme: drop mention of the Sway projectSimon Ser
wlroots has historically been started as a Sway project, but these days many wlroots contributors are working on other compositors. wlroots now also has its own namespace on gitlab.freedesktop.org. Let's remove the mention about Sway in the README, to make it clearer that Sway isn't treated in a special manner when it comes to wlroots development.

2021-04-24readme: update and cleanup xcb depsSimon Ser
Switch from the pkg-config dependency names to the upstream libxcb repository names. Each repository contains multiple libraries but is generally available in distributions as a single package. libxcb contains xcb, xcb-composite, xcb-xfixes, xcb-xinput and xcb-shm. libxcb-render-util contains xcb-render. libxcb-wm contains xcb-icccm. xcb-image was outdated and is no longer needed.

2021-04-17readme: mark libseat as mandatory depSimon Ser
[1] has made wlroots unconditionally depend on libseat. Mention this in the README. [1]: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/pull/2839
2021-04-11util/uuid: replace with util/token, remove libuuidRyan Farley
Use 128-bit hexadecimal string tokens generated with /dev/urandom instead of UUIDs for xdg-foreign handles, removing the libuuid dependency. Update readme and CI. Closes #2830. build: remove xdg-foreign feature With no external dependencies required, there's no reason not to always build it. Remove WLR_HAS_XDG_FOREIGN as well.
2021-04-11backend/session: Remove logind backendKenny Levinsen
This is instead delegated to libseat.
2021-03-29xwayland: require xcb-icccmSimon Ser
This dependency is already required by many other widely used X11 programs, such as i3, Qt, and other XWMs. So it should be available on most systems. X11 support can be pretty broken without xcb-icccm, with focus issues for instance. Let's just remove this --please-break-my-desktop footgun option.
2021-03-15docs: Minor libseat correctionsKenny Levinsen
2021-03-03xwayland: add dependency on xwaylandSimon Ser
Check that the pkg-config file is available. This will be required in the future to check whether xwayland supports features such as -listenfd, -initfd or -verbose. If there's no pkg-config file, check that the Xwayland executable is available. This effectively makes our relationship with xwayland closer to what a dynamic library is: checked at build-time, but can be overridden at run-time.
2021-02-23readme: use references for linksSimon Ser
Avoids cluttering the text with URLs.
2021-02-23readme: use spaces for list indentSimon Ser
2021-02-23readme: make it clear build/ is a dirSimon Ser
Can be confused with a sub-command for people not familiar with Meson and ninja.
2021-02-08backend/x11: drop x11-xcb dependencySimon Ser
We don't need it anymore now that we've stopped using the EGL Xlib platform.

2020-04-29Remove libcap supportScott Anderson
This is simply a false sense of security, and is worse than just using setuid. CAP_SYS_ADMIN is an extremely serious capability that is effectively as powerful as root. It also required users to be in the input group, which allows any process to keylog the entire system.

2018-11-13backend/x11: Remove old input functionsScott Anderson
This also allows us to remove xcb-xkb, since Xinput will now give us the appropriate XKB modifiers with each event.

This commit sets the required Meson version to >=0.48.0, and removes the comment about building on FreeBSD requires an extra flag.

With Meson >=0.48.0 it is no longer necessary to pass the flag "-D b_lundef=false" on FreeBSD.
