Merging the pgtk branch

Merging the pgtk branch

[Eli Zaretskii]

We would like to merge the pgtk branch onto master soon, so that it
could be included in Emacs 28.1.  Below please find some preliminary
comments from reviewing the branch's code.

I would ask people here who are interested in this feature to please
build the branch, both --with-pgtk and without it, and report any
problems they see (using "M-x report-emacs-bug", preferably).

Here are my preliminary comments from looking at the branch.  Full
disclosure: I know almost nothing about GTK, so please forgive me any
silly questions/remarks I may have due to this ignorance.

>  	@true

Does this mean gsettings-schemas will be installed by non-PGTK builds
as well?  If not, where are the conditions to prevent that?

What is this change about?  is it related to PGTK?

Does the PGTK build require Cairo?  The above seems to imply it does.
If it does, I think the --with-pgtk description should say so.

> +if test "${window_system}" = "pgtk"; then
> +   FONT_OBJ="ftfont.o ftcrfont.o"

Does this mean the PGTK build doesn't support HarfBuzz?  Or am I
misreading the meaning of the above change?

The WAYLAND_DISPLAY variable should be documented in the Emacs manual,
where all the environment variables Emacs uses are documented.

Is it useful to have "text/plain\;charset=utf-8" here when
window-system is 'x', not 'pgtk'?

Is this really PGTK-specific?

That version tag is definitely incorrect, should be 28.1.

Is this function needed?  It uses compute-motion, which cannot be a
good idea, so I wonder what is this needed for.

What's this about?  If PGTK doesn't want to be suspended, why do this

I don't understand this and many similar changes that replaced
"#ifdef" with "#if defined" and "#ifndef" with "#if !defined", without
adding more conditions.  Is this a left-over from some debugging?  If
so, please don't make such redundant changes.

Our style conventions are to leave one space between the function's
name and the left parenthesis, like this:

  mark_pgtkterm ();

Please follow this style here and elsewhere in the PGTK code.

Since you call this "pure GTK", let's say so here as well.

So FRAME_X_P returns zero for PGTK, but FRAME_X_DISPLAY is still

Yes, it is installed if gsettings is enabled, even if non-PGTK builds.

When emacs did not support imagemagick 7 and I had imagemagick both 6 and 7,
I wanted to use imagemagick 6, ...I think.

I think the code can be removed.

Yes, PGTK build requires cairo.

emacsclient tries WAYLAND_DISPLAY, and DISPLAY if the first try is failed.
The code catches the display connection failure, and returns the failure
to emacsclient.

Indeed, `grep suspend-hook` shows that all GUIs have this.
We should consolidate this.

Hmm... what about window-systems that have neither WAYLAND_DISPLAY nor
DISPLAY? will this always fail?  I feel that I'm missing something
here: why wasn't this needed before?

I think there is nothing.
Wayland applications may want to use mime types as
wider type support.

X applications support `UTF8_STRING`.
Wayland applications normally support both of `UTF8_STRING` and `text/plain;charset=utf-8`.
But XWayland seems to support only `text/plain;charset=utf-8`.

Applications on both side of copy/paste negotiate the data type,
and non-acceptable types are just ignored.
X applications don't know `text/plain;charset=utf-8`, and it
is ignored.

So I added it.

No, it is not useful for non-PGTK build.

X build supports X defaults.  But GTK doesn't support it.
Instead, I implemented this hook with gsettings:
  terminal->get_string_resource_hook = pgtk_get_string_resource;

gsettings supports type. Type of each key is written in the schema file
etc/org.gnu.emacs.defaults.gschema.xml.
(I implemented this feature instead of X defaults, so types of all the key
are string.)

However, I'm not sure whether people want Xdefaults-like feature.
Emacs' frame parameters are enough...

Sorry, I mistook.

GTK supports GDK_BACKEND environment variable.

If GDK_BACKEND=wayland, GTK tries only wayland connection.
If GDK_BACKEND=x11, GTK tries only X connection.
If GDK_BACKEND=wayland,x11, GTK tries wayland connection, and X
connection if the first try failed.

If GDK_BACKEND=x11 and DISPLAY is not set, then emacs fails to start.
----
luna:objs % unset DISPLAY
luna:objs % GDK_BACKEND=x11 ./src/emacs      

(emacs:322982): Gtk-WARNING **: 00:31:26.986: cannot open display: 
luna:objs % 
----

If GDK_BACKEND=x11 and DISPLAY=:0, then emacs starts.
However, `emacsclient -c` first tries with WAYLAND_DISPLAY and
it fails, because GDK_BACKEND=x11 and emacs itself does not open
wayland connection.

The error is:
----
-error Cannot&_connect&_to&_display&_server&_wayland&-1
----
(In case of WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1.)

And emacsclient does not retry.

I wanted to work around this error.
I send -window-system-unsupported by that change.
In this case, emacsclient retry with alt_display, which is
DISPLAY by another change.

> what about window-systems that have neither WAYLAND_DISPLAY nor
> DISPLAY? will this always fail?

emacsclient.c:
----
#if defined (NS_IMPL_COCOA)
      alt_display = "ns";
#elif defined (HAVE_NTGUI)
      alt_display = "w32";
#endif
----
  if (!display)
    {
      display = alt_display;
      alt_display = NULL;
    }
----

On ns and w32, display is set.

To make sure whether that change works on ns and w32,
it is needed to test on such machines.
I didn't test on such machines.

Can we then change the `condition-case` so it doesn't catch all `error`s
but only the "Cannot connect to display server" one?

Font size (was: Merging the pgtk branch)

[Kévin Le Gouguec]

Hello,

AFAICT the branch builds and runs fine --with-pgtk --with-xwidgets
--with-cairo on Debian 10 (XFCE).

One hiccup: unless I'm mistaken, this build does not consult
~/.Xresources anymore.  That led me to discover --with-gconf and
font-use-system-font (I did not use these options previously); I am now
a bit confused about how font sizes work.

On master, with font-use-system-font set to nil, here is what C-u C-x =
says for various values of emacs.font in ~/.Xresources:

.Xresources¹    C-u C-x =²
9               12
10              13
10.5            14
11              15

¹ "XX" in "emacs.font: DejaVu Sans Mono-XX"
² "XX" in "ftcrhb:-PfEd-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-XX-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1"

On master --with-gconf and feature/pgtk, with font-use-system-font set
to t, here is what C-u C-x = says for various GSettings:

GSettings³      C-u C-x =
9               12
10              13
10.5            ERROR (see below)
11              15

³ "XX" in "gsettings org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'DejaVu Sans Mono XX'"

As it happens, "10.5" (reported as "14" inside Emacs) is the size I find
the most comfortable on my screen; unfortunately if I run:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name 'DejaVu Sans Mono 10.5'

Emacs emits a warning:

> set-face-attribute: Font not available: #<font-spec nil nil DejaVu\
> Sans\ Mono\ 10\.5 nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil ((:name

Is this expected?  Otherwise, should I report an issue?  (AFAICT it is
not specific to the pgtk branch)

That's by design, AFAIU.  Yuuki even said that not so long ago.

I don't know if it's expected, but the error message says that the
"10.5" part is not expected there.  What happens if you use "10"
instead of "10.5"?

Right.  To recap my other questions:

1. Why do Xresources and GSettings sizes differ from what C-u C-x =
   reports?

2. Why doesn't "10.5" work with GSettings, despite it working with
   Xresources?

3. Is there a bug to report there?

What I don't understand:

1. How come GSettings/Xresources and Emacs use different "units"?
   (Apologies if the answer lies somewhere in the manual, which it most
   certainly does)

2. Why does 10.5 work with Xresources and not GSettings?

Likely because the former are specified in points (1 pt = 1/72 in) and
the latter in pixels (1 px = 1/96 in by default).

is this tru also for GSettings font sizes in the X+GTK build of Emacs?
Because then we'd need to document that in the "Fonts" section of the
Emacs manual, where all the different methods of specifying a font are
described.

The org.gnome.desktop.interface GSettings schema does not say
explicitly which units the size is specified in, and whether
fractional values are allowed.

My question was whether the same units are likely to be used in the
X+GTK build as they are in the PGTK build.  IOW, that your guess of
the units being 1/96 inch is true or false for both of them.

I’m not related to GNOME or GTK+ development, but I would be much
surprised if font sizes were specified in anything other than points
(which are 1/72 in, not 1/96 in); and especially if GTK behaved
differently in that regard between X and Wayland and/or depended on
other factors other than poorly configured screen DPI.

Fontconfig talks about sizes in points (but allows them to be
fractional, the underlying data type is a double)

I wasn't talking about the Fontconfig format of specifying a font, I
was talking about the GTK format.  They are different, see the node
"Fonts" in the Emacs manual.

Since emacsgtkfixed.[ch] are extending a GTK's class, there should be

But OK, they should be enclosed in #ifdef HAVE_PGTK.

It is GNOME mutter's bug, which seems to be already fixed.

To avoid enbugging, I wanted to use XFillRectangle calls as is.

I hope you will recall it.  Or maybe just disable the change and see
what goes wrong?

I'm not really opposed to the change, I'm just surprised it is needed,
and if indeed it is needed, I would like to have a comment there
explaining why.

OK, but please add a comment near FRAME_X_P's definition to the effect
that FRAME_X_P will return false for PGTK although FRAME_X_DISPLAY is
still valid.  (But see below: perhaps a more significant change
described there will make this a moot point.)

OK, but we have the same problem with other display types as well.
For example, the MS-Windows display has

  f->output_data.w32->...

The code is still conditional, allright, but the conditions are hidden
in the definitions of FRAME_DISPLAY_INFO, FRAME_FONT, etc.  Can't we
do something similar for PGTK?  If necessary, we could add more
FRAME_xxx macros to hide the conditionals, where the X and the PGTK
members need to be accessed differently.

Thanks!

I've switched to running feature/pgtk on my daily driver to kick the
tyres and see how things work. However I wonder about how this new code
deals with a failing desktop environment. When I start up I still get
the warning:

  Warning: due to a long standing Gtk+ bug
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/221
  Emacs might crash when run in daemon mode and the X11 connection is unexpectedly lost.
  Using an Emacs configured with --with-x-toolkit=lucid does not have this problem.

which doesn't inspire confidence. I've just taken down my Wayland/sway
session due to an unrelated bug and while I could see emacs --daemon
processes running the server socket in /run/user/1000/emacs had
disappeared. So a quick question:

  - Is the pgtk branch meant to address this longstanding issue?

Follow-up questions for debugging:

  - How do I check from inside Emacs is the GUI frame is connection via
    GTK/Wayland or is using GTK/X11 (via Xwayland)?

Thanks,

I don't think any program can "address" this long-standing issue, as
long as said program uses GTK+, which dies whenever a display connection
closes underneath its nose.

Some time ago, I worked on a port of feature/pgtk to GTK+ 4, which
exhibited the same problem.  I'm not quite confident that situation will
change any time soon.

Where should I describe WAYLAND_DISPLAY?
"C.4.1 General Variables" in info/emacs.info lists many variables but it does
not contain DISPLAY.  Should I add WAYLAND_DISPLAY here?

WAYLAND_DISPLAY is generic for wayland, not specific to pgtk emacs.

I thought that gui_set_border_width could change the border width of a frame.
But there is the code:
---
    if (FRAME_NATIVE_WINDOW (f) != 0)
      error ("Cannot change the border width of a frame");
---
I was confused, and added #ifndef around it.

I don't know about the function.

Are there still any obstacles to merging the pgtk branch?

If so, which?  I think I might have the time to do some light work to
resolve them, if they're not too major.

M-x menu-set-font is still broken in that branch.

If you can find a solution to frame positioning, that would be
wonderful, but I think thatʼs a losing proposition, given the attitude
of Wayland.

I tend to agree. I did try creating a full-screen invisible top-level
frame, and then creating the ordinary frames as child-frames of that,
but it didnʼt work very well (and would no doubt get broken by some
future change to Wayland and/or the compositors).

"Full screen surface with attached subsurfaces" is quite against the
design of Wayland, so I doubt it would ever work.

Wayland doesn't really have a single type of surface (window), and
concepts that can be applied to subsurfaces cannot be applied to the
similarly named but entirely different regular surfaces.

It's for setting the width of the "external border" of the frame,
something that window managers generally disallow.  Doesn't PGTK
define FRAME_NATIVE_WINDOW to return non-zero for any GUI frame?  If
so, you don't have to #ifdef this, it will work as with any other
window-system.

Thanks.

Thanks, I guess it is now up to the people who use(d) this branch: if
they say it's in good shape, we are ready to land it on master.

Re: Merging the pgtk branch

[Vitaly Ankh]

I'm a current pgtk branch user and I think it's really in good shape now.
The only problem is xwidgets doesn't support pgtk branch, while we
could improve this situation after pgtk branch is merged into master.

The child frame feature on that branch is totally broken.

Evaluting the following code is enough to make it emit tens of GLib
warning messages (the product of use-after-frees) and eventually crash:

  (make-frame `((parent-frame . ,(selected-frame))))

Most of the code in gtkutil and pgtkterm is also unprepared to deal with
frames that don't have an outer widget, which is the case with pgtk
child frames.  That code will have to be carefully reviewed and
reworked.

Needless to say, unparenting child frames or reparenting child frames to
another frame is even more hopeless.

I plan to rework that feature.  Before that, please do not merge the
pgtk branch.

"Tens of GLib warnings messages" does not reproduce for me.  Gtk+ 3.24.30.
Please tell me the detail.

I found a way to crash:
----
(setq f1 (selected-frame))
(setq f2 (make-frame))
(setq f (make-frame `((parent-frame . ,f1) (width . 10) (height . 5))))
(modify-frame-parameters f1 `((parent-frame . ,f2)))
(modify-frame-parameters f1 `((parent-frame . ,nil)))

I'll debug this.

I fixed the warning messages.  Turns out it was the code in
`xg_set_special_colors' using FRAME_GTK_OUTER_WIDGET (which is NULL in
pgtk child frames), which makes GTK emit lots of warning messages.

Seems to work here, thanks.  BTW, I think the child frame implementation
needs some sort of "window" manager, so things like setting the Z group

I looked through the rest of the code in pgtkterm.c, pgtkfns.c and
gtkutil.c, and barring some bits that don't actually get compiled on
PGTK, it looks good to me now.

So I think we're ready to merge the feature branch to master.  Yuuki?

I don't know if there's any special procedure for merging feature
branches.  Eli?

I verified that it doesn't break the build on any platform I tested (all
possible combinations of X and Haiku).  Someone might have to test on
MS-Windows and macOS though.

Please wait for me to merge master to feature/pgtk one last time before
merging the pgtk branch -- I just realized that the change to
Fwindow_text_pixel_size's signature needs an adjustment on the pgtk end
to work as well.

Just "git merge", and pay attention to the log entry.

After some time, remember to delete the feature branch.

Which is why I think it should be an error.  At least it would serve to
immediately notify the people building prebuilt packages for common GNU
distributions that they should start tracking master instead.

Quick question - is pgtk supposed to become the default front-end on Unix systems? I'm just wondering if I'll need a custom Emacs build for Linux after Emacs 28 is released officially. In general I'm not even sure if that's a decision for the Emacs dev team or for the various package maintainers.

Somebody should clean up the code in PGTK files: there are code

What's "the default front-end on Unix systems"?  I don't think we have
one now, we just build with whatever we find on the build system, and
rely on the user to specify the options at configure time.

So I'm not sure I understand the question.

Re: Merging the pgtk branch

[Bozhidar Batsov]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1857 bytes --]

Fair enough, let me try to clarify my question. I had just assumed that all Unix systems (except macOS) default to the old GTK front-end (when it comes to Emacs with GUI, that is) and I was wondering if the expectation was that pgtk would mostly replace it right away (e.g. because of it's improved compatibility with Wayland) once Emacs 28 is released. 

My practical problem is that Emacs doesn't scale properly with Wayland on a HiDPI display, and by reading about pgtk I got the impression that it will address this issue. I installed Emacs-snapshot on Ubuntu, but it seems it's not built using pgtk, so I was wondering if I should ping the package maintainers to consider enabling it, or if there was some general consensus that the old GTK frontend will be replaced by the new one in most use-cases, as in theory it looks superior. I know I can just build Emacs from source however I see fit, but I was curious what's the expectation of the Emacs devs for the uptake of the new frontend in *BSD, Linux, etc. Perhaps I've missed an earlier discussion on the subject and I'd appreciate it if someone simply points me to it.

So what you mean to ask is "will Emacs use PGTK by default when it is
build using GTK"?

Note that this was merged on to the master branch, not the emacs-28
branch (that is being prepared for release).

AFAIU, you _have_ to specify --with-x-toolkit=VALUE at configure time;
there's no default.  If you don't specify it, you get an X build with
no toolkit.

As for PGTK: we didn't yet decide whether to promote it as the
recommended toolkit.  AFAIU, there are some issues with it (whose root
cause is how Wayland works), and we are not yet sure whether users
will live in peace with those issues.  We need more feedback and more
user experience for that.

Currently, if you don't specify it, you get the GTK+ build (assuming the 
appropriate development libraries are installed).

With "./configure", I get GTK here.

Sorry for posting misinformation, but I guess ./configure --help
"needs work".

Btw, PGTK build needs a NEWS entry.  Would someone please write one?

You can also rename the branch to `old-branches/pgtk`.

Many many thanks to you and Yuuki and the other contributors, this is

I'm glad it's finally on master! I'll report bugs to
the bug mailing list. (Fonts 3x too large. Etc.)

There are some other problems with it (by design): it's scantily tested,
and it doesn't respect Z groups in child frames, it doesn't work with
the X resource database (not everyone wants to use GSettings), and it
also lacks several other features.

This situation will take quite a while to improve.  Some of the problem
needs improvements in GTK+3, which will probably not happen due to the
attitude of the GTK developers.  Please don't make it the recommended
toolkit.

Thanks.

The X and GTK build (even though flawed in _concept_) is extremely
reliable.  It was written and maintained by Jan Djarv, who was an
extremely skilled expert in this field for ~15 years.

We should not hurry to replace the defaults with anything else.

Thanks, I'll add it to the pile of things I will do in an hour or so.

I've just built Emacs with pgtk and I can confirm it looks and works great with Wayland. Great work!
