2015-07-27terminal: drop unfinished codeDavid Herrmann
This drops the libsystemd-terminal and systemd-consoled code for various reasons: * It's been sitting there unfinished for over a year now and won't get finished any time soon. * Since its initial creation, several parts need significant rework: The input handling should be replaced with the now commonly used libinput, the drm accessors should coordinate the handling of mode-object hotplugging (including split connectors) with other DRM users, and the internal library users should be converted to sd-device and friends. * There is still significant kernel work required before sd-console is really useful. This includes, but is not limited to, simpledrm and drmlog. * The authority daemon is needed before all this code can be used for real. And this will definitely take a lot more time to get done as no-one else is currently working on this, but me. * kdbus maintenance has taken up way more time than I thought and it has much higher priority. I don't see me spending much time on the terminal code in the near future. If anyone intends to hack on this, please feel free to contact me. I'll gladly help you out with any issues. Once kdbus and authorityd are finished (whenever that will be..) I'll definitely pick this up again. But until then, lets reduce compile times and maintenance efforts on this code and drop it for now.

2015-02-23remove unused includesThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is in use.

2014-10-03terminal/grdev: allow arbitrary fb-age contextsDavid Herrmann
Instead of limiting fb-aging to 64bit integers, allow any arbitrary context together with a release function to free it once the FB is destroyed.
2014-10-03terminal/grdev: provide front and back buffer to renderersDavid Herrmann
We really want more sophisticated aging than just 64bit integers. So always provide front *and* back buffers to renderers so they can compare arbitrary aging information and decide whether to re-render.
2014-10-03terminal/drm: provide pipe->target() callbackDavid Herrmann
Instead of looking for available back-buffers on each operation, set it to NULL and wait for the next frame request. It will call back into the pipe to request the back-buffer via ->target(), where we can do the same and look for an available backbuffer. This simplifies the code and avoids double lookups if we run short of buffers.
2014-09-23terminal: provide display dimensions to API usersDavid Herrmann
Allow users to query the display dimensions of a grdev_display. This is required to properly resize the objects to be rendered.
2014-09-23terminal: verify grdev tiles are correctly linkedDavid Herrmann
We used to set "pipe->tile = tile" inside of the leaf allocation. We no longer do that. Verify that "out" is non-NULL, otherwise we'd leak memory. This is currently always given, but make sure to add an assert(), so coverity does not complain.
2014-09-23terminal: fix tile-offset calculationDavid Herrmann
Binary operators with two pointers as arguments always operate on object-size, not bytes. That is, "int *a, *b", (a - b) calculates the number of integers between b and a, not the number of bytes. Fix our cache-offset calculation to not use sizeof() with full-ptr arithmetic.

2014-09-22terminal: allow user-context to be retrieved/storedDavid Herrmann
Add "userdata" storage to a bunch of external objects, namely displays and sessions. Furthermore, add some property retrieval helpers. This is required if we want external API users to not duplicate our own object hashtables, but retrieve context from the objects themselves.
2014-09-20terminal: grdev: schedule virtual frame events if hw doesn't support itDavid Herrmann
Whenever we cannot use hardware frame events, we now schedule a virtual frame event to make sure applications don't have to do this. Usually, applications render only on data changes, but we can further reduce render-time by also limiting rendering to vsyncs.
2014-09-20terminal: grdev: raise frame event after DISPLAY_ADD/CHANGEDavid Herrmann
Whenever a display is added or changed, we suppressed any frame events. Make sure to raise them manually so we can avoid rendering when handling anything but FRAME events.
2014-09-20terminal: grdev: refresh device state on hotplug eventsDavid Herrmann
Whenever we get udev hotplug events, re-read the device state so we properly detect any changed in the display setups.
2014-09-20terminal: grdev: treat udev-devices without devnum as hotplugDavid Herrmann
If we get udev-device events via sysview, but they lack devnum annotations, we know it cannot be a DRM card. Look through it's parents and treat it as hotplug event in case we find such a card. This will treat any new/removed connectors as sub-devices of the real card, instead of as devices on its own.
2014-09-19terminal: add grdev DRM backendDavid Herrmann
The grdev-drm backend manages DRM cards for grdev. Any DRM card with DUMB_BUFFER support can be used. So far, our policy is to configure all available connectors, but keep pipes inactive as long as users don't enable the displays on top. We hard-code double-buffering so far, but can easily support single-buffering or n-buffering. We also require XRGB8888 as format as this is required to be supported by all DRM drivers and it is what VTs use. This allows us to switch from VTs to grdev via page-flips instead of deep modesets. There is still a lot room for improvements in this backend, but it works smoothly so far so more enhanced features can be added later.
2014-09-19terminal: add graphics interfaceDavid Herrmann
The grdev layer provides graphics-device access via the libsystemd-terminal library. It will be used by all terminal helpers to actually access display hardware. Like idev, the grdev layer is built around session objects. On each session object you add/remove graphics devices as they appear and vanish. Any device type can be supported via specific card-backends. The exported grdev API hides any device details. Graphics devices are represented by "cards". Those are hidden in the session and any pipe-configuration is automatically applied. Out of those, we configure displays which are then exported to the API user. Displays are meant as lowest hardware entity available outside of grdev. The underlying pipe configuration is fully hidden and not accessible from the outside. The grdev tiling layer allows almost arbitrary setups out of multiple pipes, but so far we only use a small subset of this. More will follow. A grdev-display is meant to represent real connected displays/monitors. The upper level screen arrangements are user policy and not controlled by grdev. Applications are free to apply any policy they want. Real card-backends will follow in later patches.
