bug#55362: 29.0.50; Super key no longer works on Wayland

bug#55362: 29.0.50; Super key no longer works on Wayland

[Thomas Jost via Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors]

Hey folks,

When using recent builds of Emacs with PGTK on Wayland (Sway), the Super
key is no longer detected. I use it in a lot of shortcuts, but now
typing e.g. `s-/' just inputs /.

If I run an older build with the exact same config (or even with `emacs
-Q'), I don't experience that issue, and shortcuts using Super still
work. So, this seems to be an Emacs bug.

Using git bisect, I was able to find that this started in commit
1c1ae6ba802cc5813fa6f8f90f21050aae6bb459. Further investigation revealed
that when typing a shortcut with Super, the GDK_SUPER_MASK bit isn't
set, but GDK_MOD4_MASK is.

I'm not sure what the best option is: restoring the former
x_find_modifier_meanings() function, or hard-coding that Mod4 is the
same as Super (like Mod1 and Meta).
For now, I started using this patch:
https://paste.sr.ht/~schnouki/e997d536bd3305aa34bb2c72bfe68dcdde18ec80

If it sounds like a good solution, feel free to use it.

Happy to help and provide any further information needed!

Cheers,
Thomas

bug#55362: 29.0.50; Super key no longer works on Wayland

The bug is in GTK, not in Emacs.  It doesn't set the virtual modifier
masks corresponding to the Super key on some Wayland compositors, which
it is supposed to.

That patch (and the old code) is incorrect, and the code before its
removal was another example of the PGTK port haphazardly copying code
from xterm.c to do stuff GDK is supposed to do by itself.  Mod4 is a
real modifier and can correspond to any (number) of virtual modifiers,
which might or might not contain Super.

Please report the bug to the GTK developers.  Something along the lines
of "GDK_SUPER_MASK not set on keyboard events on wlroots-based
compositors when the Super key is held down".  After you do that, I'd
appreciate it if you gave us a link to the bug report, so we can at
least put it in etc/PROBLEMS.

Thanks in advance.

But this seems to affect many people who had a working Super key before,
so I think we should re-fix this on the Emacs side.

I agree.  At the very least, how about a knob, by default off, to
restore the previous behavior; we could then have that in PROBLEMS.

Not before Emacs 29 is released, or otherwise the GTK developers will
never fix their thing, and we will be stuck maintaining yet another
broken hack to work around one of their bugs until the end of time,
which is several degrees of magnitude more confusing because we now have
two configurations where sometimes identical, and sometimes different
GTK bugs have to be worked around.

Reported it to GTK developers here:

From a user perspective, this seems like a decent trade-off. For me, not
being able to use the previous behavior would mean that I'd have to stop
testing Git releases until Emacs 29 is released.

Not having such a knob would also prevent any user who is for some
reason stuck on an older version of Gtk to upgrade Emacs.

If we do that, then in my experience this bug will never be fixed in
GTK, and we will be stuck maintaining this awful hack until the end of
time.

It's okay to add such a knob assuming the GTK bug still isn't fixed
approaching the release of Emacs 29, but not now, when that release is
still several years away.

Emacs 28 does not support PGTK, and we will not turn it on by default
for future releases either, so there is no regression from the POV of
the user.

The release of Emacs 29 isn't several years away, I think.  :-)

But people are using Emacs 29 now, and are running into this problem, so
I think it should be fixed (one way or another) now.  (We've had many
bug reports about it already.)

IMO, we should think about our users first.  Besides, there's no
guarantee whatsoever that the bug will be fix if we don't work around
it.

I think this is a mistake.  We cause a disadvantage to our users now
because we believe the GTK developers will fix this later.  There's no
reason for that hope based on our past experience.  And if you believe
GTK developers pay such attention to what we do or don't do, why not
assume that they will read this discussion and say "okay, those Emacs
guys can solve this themselves if they want to"?

Not just that: when we get closer to a release, we generally don't
want significant changes.

Does Emacs's behavior/bugs/etc ever affect GTK devs' choices? Doesn't 
seem to be the case so far.

And the bug has now been fixed in GTK.  The fix should be released and
reach most users rather quickly, so I'm closing this bug.

The latest GTK3 version - 3.24.35 - released yesterday didn't include
the fix by

I have just updated it on Arch and built Emacs on master but the super
key still isn't recognized. If I understand correctly Emacs PGTK depends
on GTK3 but not GTK4, then we should request GTK devs to backport
the fix to GTK3?

I thought it was installed in the GTK 3 branch (and not the GTK 4 one).
So please go ahead and ask them to do that.

Thanks.
