Description:

The global-mode-string is incorrectly right-aligned in the tab-bar when
global-display-line-numbers-mode is enabled.  The issue actually depends
on the order of execution of global-display-line-numbers-mode.  I could
not find an offending commit, so I am not sure for how long this issue
exists.  I am currently debugging the Emacs internals to find the root
cause.

Steps:

1) emacs -Q (master 690f7ac86ad9a9d714b1107d05c5e856a43bb18d)

2) Eval the following to enable global-display-line-numbers-mode:

(progn
  (global-display-line-numbers-mode 1))

3) Eval the following to enable display-time-mode, which at this moment
will be displayed in the mode-line:

(progn
  (setopt display-time-interval 1
          display-time-string-forms '((format-time-string "%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S" now)))
  (display-time-mode 1))

4) Eval the following to add global-mode-line to tab-bar, right-aligned:

(progn
  (setopt tab-bar-format '(tab-bar-format-tabs-groups
                           tab-bar-separator
                           tab-bar-format-align-right
                           tab-bar-format-global))
  (tab-bar-mode 1))

Result: the global-mode-line is displayed in the tab-bar, right-aligned,
as expected.

5) Run step 2) again

Result: the global-mode-line is displayed in the tab-bar, right-aligned,
with an incorrect padding on the right. See attached video.

Thanks for the bug report.  Here is a possible fix
to get the correct pixel width without taking into account
line numbers inserted to the text area of the same buffer:

diff --git a/lisp/emacs-lisp/subr-x.el b/lisp/emacs-lisp/subr-x.el
index 6e4d88b4df..92bbdfaa9c 100644
--- a/lisp/emacs-lisp/subr-x.el
+++ b/lisp/emacs-lisp/subr-x.el
@@ -322,6 +322,8 @@ string-pixel-width
     ;; Keeping a work buffer around is more efficient than creating a
     ;; new temporary buffer.
     (with-current-buffer (get-buffer-create " *string-pixel-width*")
+      (when display-line-numbers-mode
+        (display-line-numbers-mode -1))
       (delete-region (point-min) (point-max))
       (insert string)
       (car (buffer-text-pixel-size nil nil t)))))

But really I think the bug is in global-display-line-numbers-mode.
Maybe it should not enable display-line-numbers-mode
in internal buffers whose names start with a space?

For example, here is what tab-line-mode--turn-on does:

  (defun tab-line-mode--turn-on ()
    (unless (or (minibufferp)
                (string-match-p "\\` " (buffer-name))
                (memq major-mode tab-line-exclude-modes)
                (get major-mode 'tab-line-exclude)
                (buffer-local-value 'tab-line-exclude (current-buffer)))
      (tab-line-mode 1)))

But display-line-numbers--turn-on is only:

  (defun display-line-numbers--turn-on ()
    (unless (minibufferp)
      (display-line-numbers-mode)))

I think we should add at least (string-match-p "\\` " (buffer-name))
to display-line-numbers--turn-on.

Yes.  Or subtract what (line-number-display-width t) returns (it will
return zero when line-numbers are turned OFF).

Regardless, functions that must make sure line-numbers are off should
do that explicitly, or account for the line-number width in their
geometry calculations.  That's because whatever
global-display-line-numbers-mode does, it is always possible that a
particular buffer will have line-numbers enabled for some reason.

That's a possibility, but you may find that some Lisp code somewhere
assumes line-numbers are ON in a temporary buffer, e.g. because it
wants to measure something that is directly related to line-numbers.

So this kind of reasoning is a slippery slope, IME, and tends to
introduce subtle bugs elsewhere it takes us years to find.

That's kind of unlikely, and if it happens, using your own reasoning that
Lisp code should set line-numbers explicitly.

Unlikely or not, string-pixel-with is a function that must not fail
this way.  It must be rock-solid, even if the unthinkable happens.

Shouldn't then buffer-text-pixel-size subtract line-number-display-width?
Isn't this the responsibility of buffer-text-pixel-size,
not responsibility of a caller like string-pixel-width?

No, because line-numbers take space, and some use cases of
buffer-text-pixel-size want to know that.  Only the caller knows whether the
line-numbers should or shouldn't be included.  The principle is that we
measure the space taken in the text-area, no matter how it is used.  (There
are other display features that affect the result, for example,
line-prefix.)

I still don't understand why string-pixel-width should handle line-numbers
that also degrades its performance.  I think it should be sufficient only
to disable line-numbers in internal buffers.  But ok, here are both:

Because string-pixel-width uses a temporary buffer as its internal
implementation detail.  (And why do you think this degrades performance? any
measurements?)

I think it's too late for that, since display-line-numbers-mode is with us
for the last 2 major releases.

This is fine by me.  (Or you could turn off display-line-numbers-mode
instead, right after with-current-buffer.)

I don't agree with this part.

Thanks.

Any additional code makes it slower.  How much slower is a separate question.

Leaving it as is means waiting for more trouble in other places.

Ok, fixed with the latter, and closed.
