[PATCH v4 0/1] MR7352: winewayland: Update locked pointer position hint.
by Attila Fidan (＠atticf) 26 Feb '25

If a surface is being clipped and hides the cursor, drawing its own one, winewayland constrains using a pointer lock and enables Wayland relative motion. If the application decides to stop drawing its own cursor and make the cursor visible, winewayland will disable relative motion and pointer lock, and enable pointer confinement. The user will perceive a pointer jump from the win32/application drawn cursor to where the Wayland pointer is after being unlocked and an absolute motion event is received, because they were desynchronized due to the Wayland one being locked in place. The pointer constraints protocol says this: > If the client is drawing its own cursor, it should update the position > hint to the position of its own cursor. A compositor may use this > information to warp the pointer upon unlock in order to avoid pointer > jumps. So, right before unlocking, make a request for the compositor to warp the pointer to the win32 position on pointer unlock. -- v4: winewayland: Update locked pointer position hint. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7352

[PATCH v4 0/1] MR7288: winegstreamer: Avoid large buffer pushes in wg_transform.
by Yuxuan Shui (＠yshui) 26 Feb '25

## Context This is a problem discovered when running "Max: The Curse of Brotherhood" under proton. This game writes 4MB a piece into `wg_transform`, which contains about 4 seconds of compressed video. `wg_transform` calls `gst_pad_push` in `transform_ProcessOutput`, which takes \~300ms (i.e. 20 frames @ 60fps) to decode this buffer of video. So the end result is the game hitches every 4 seconds while playing cut scene videos. Proton currently has a special case for this particular game, for which it breaks up the buffer into small chunks to avoid long blocks. This MR adopts that and applies it generally. One concern raised by @redmcg is: > The only issue I can think of is if there are any decoders which don't have a parser; then they might not know how to deal with an arbitrary 4096 byte buffer (the parser is generally responsible for taking arbitrary buffers and producing something the decoder can work with, for example: a full frame). So this MR only enables this strategy when there is a parser element. -- v4: winegstreamer: Avoid large buffer pushes in wg_transform. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7288

update: rebased to master and is now using the parser for buffer splitting. i found that holding onto the parser element and manually driving it is too complicated, it also causes the code paths to diverge significantly between the having-a-parser case and the not-having-a-parser case. so instead i added a proxy element which gives me control over how buffers move through the pipeline. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7288#note_95963

It is clear the behavior is correct when the fill mode is WINDING, or when the rendering does not depend on the fill rule - that also includes overlapping geometries with correct path direction, e.g. paths generated from font outlines. You should provide a way forward, not block it because it is not perfect. It definitely *does* work properly in the majority of cases, the rendering becomes more correct. If you want changes, please be specific. Wine is full of partially incomplete and incorrect implementations, according to your line of thoughts all this should be deleted. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6492#note_95959
