This protocol allows clients to ask the compositor to capture image sources
such as outputs and toplevels into user submitted buffers.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.
This object is a manager which offers requests to start capturing from a
source.
Create a capturing session for an image capture source.
If the paint_cursors option is set, cursors shall be composited onto
the captured frame. The cursor must not be composited onto the frame
if this flag is not set.
If the options bitfield is invalid, the invalid_option protocol error
is sent.
Create a cursor capturing session for the pointer of an image capture
source.
Destroy the manager object.
Other objects created via this interface are unaffected.
This object represents an active image copy capture session.
After a capture session is created, buffer constraint events will be
emitted from the compositor to tell the client which buffer types and
formats are supported for reading from the session. The compositor may
re-send buffer constraint events whenever they change.
The advertise buffer constraints, the compositor must send in no
particular order: zero or more shm_format and dmabuf_format events, zero
or one dmabuf_device event, and exactly one buffer_size event. Then the
compositor must send a done event.
When the client has received all the buffer constraints, it can create a
buffer accordingly, attach it to the capture session using the
attach_buffer request, set the buffer damage using the damage_buffer
request and then send the capture request.
Provides the dimensions of the source image in buffer pixel coordinates.
The client must attach buffers that match this size.
Provides the format that must be used for shared-memory buffers.
This event may be emitted multiple times, in which case the client may
choose any given format.
This event advertises the device buffers must be allocated on for
dma-buf buffers.
In general the device is a DRM node. The DRM node type (primary vs.
render) is unspecified. Clients must not rely on the compositor sending
a particular node type. Clients cannot check two devices for equality
by comparing the dev_t value.
Provides the format that must be used for dma-buf buffers.
The client may choose any of the modifiers advertised in the array of
64-bit unsigned integers.
This event may be emitted multiple times, in which case the client may
choose any given format.
This event is sent once when all buffer constraint events have been
sent.
The compositor must always end a batch of buffer constraint events with
this event, regardless of whether it sends the initial constraints or
an update.
This event indicates that the capture session has stopped and is no
longer available. This can happen in a number of cases, e.g. when the
underlying source is destroyed, if the user decides to end the image
capture, or if an unrecoverable runtime error has occurred.
The client should destroy the session after receiving this event.
Create a capture frame for this session.
At most one frame object can exist for a given session at any time. If
a client sends a create_frame request before a previous frame object
has been destroyed, the duplicate_frame protocol error is raised.
Destroys the session. This request can be sent at any time by the
client.
This request doesn't affect ext_image_copy_capture_frame_v1 objects created by
this object.
This object represents an image capture frame.
The client should attach a buffer, damage the buffer, and then send a
capture request.
If the capture is successful, the compositor must send the frame metadata
(transform, damage, presentation_time in any order) followed by the ready
event.
If the capture fails, the compositor must send the failed event.
Destroys the session. This request can be sent at any time by the
client.
Attach a buffer to the session.
The wl_buffer.release request is unused.
The new buffer replaces any previously attached buffer.
This request must not be sent after capture, or else the
already_captured protocol error is raised.
Apply damage to the buffer which is to be captured next. This request
may be sent multiple times to describe a region.
The client indicates the accumulated damage since this wl_buffer was
last captured. During capture, the compositor will update the buffer
with at least the union of the region passed by the client and the
region advertised by ext_image_copy_capture_frame_v1.damage.
When a wl_buffer is captured for the first time, or when the client
doesn't track damage, the client must damage the whole buffer.
This is for optimisation purposes. The compositor may use this
information to reduce copying.
These coordinates originate from the upper left corner of the buffer.
If x or y are strictly negative, or if width or height are negative or
zero, the invalid_buffer_damage protocol error is raised.
This request must not be sent after capture, or else the
already_captured protocol error is raised.
Capture a frame.
Unless this is the first successful captured frame performed in this
session, the compositor may wait an indefinite amount of time for the
source content to change before performing the copy.
This request may only be sent once, or else the already_captured
protocol error is raised. A buffer must be attached before this request
is sent, or else the no_buffer protocol error is raised.
This event is sent before the ready event and holds the transform that
the compositor has applied to the buffer contents.
This event is sent before the ready event. It may be generated multiple
times to describe a region.
The first captured frame in a session will always carry full damage.
Subsequent frames' damaged regions describe which parts of the buffer
have changed since the last ready event.
These coordinates originate in the upper left corner of the buffer.
This event indicates the time at which the frame is presented to the
output in system monotonic time. This event is sent before the ready
event.
The timestamp is expressed as tv_sec_hi, tv_sec_lo, tv_nsec triples,
each component being an unsigned 32-bit value. Whole seconds are in
tv_sec which is a 64-bit value combined from tv_sec_hi and tv_sec_lo,
and the additional fractional part in tv_nsec as nanoseconds. Hence,
for valid timestamps tv_nsec must be in [0, 999999999].
Called as soon as the frame is copied, indicating it is available
for reading.
The buffer may be re-used by the client after this event.
After receiving this event, the client must destroy the object.
An unspecified runtime error has occurred. The client may retry.
The buffer submitted by the client doesn't match the latest session
constraints. The client should re-allocate its buffers and retry.
The session has stopped. See ext_image_copy_capture_session_v1.stopped.
This event indicates that the attempted frame copy has failed.
After receiving this event, the client must destroy the object.
This object represents a cursor capture session. It extends the base
capture session with cursor-specific metadata.
Destroys the session. This request can be sent at any time by the
client.
This request doesn't affect ext_image_copy_capture_frame_v1 objects created by
this object.
Gets the image copy capture session for this cursor session.
The session will produce frames of the cursor image. The compositor may
pause the session when the cursor leaves the captured area.
This request must not be sent more than once, or else the
duplicate_session protocol error is raised.
Sent when a cursor enters the captured area. It shall be generated
before the "position" and "hotspot" events when and only when a cursor
enters the area.
The cursor enters the captured area when the cursor image intersects
with the captured area. Note, this is different from e.g.
wl_pointer.enter.
Sent when a cursor leaves the captured area. No "position" or "hotspot"
event is generated for the cursor until the cursor enters the captured
area again.
Cursors outside the image capture source do not get captured and no
event will be generated for them.
The given position is the position of the cursor's hotspot and it is
relative to the main buffer's top left corner in transformed buffer
pixel coordinates. The coordinates may be negative or greater than the
main buffer size.
The hotspot describes the offset between the cursor image and the
position of the input device.
The given coordinates are the hotspot's offset from the origin in
buffer coordinates.
Clients should not apply the hotspot immediately: the hotspot becomes
effective when the next ext_image_copy_capture_frame_v1.ready event is received.
Compositors may delay this event until the client captures a new frame.
