Description aguertin+freedesktop 2012-04-02 16:34:14 UTC
When using gtk-based programs on wayland, cairo commit 38a242a "spans,image,gl: Add fast-path for simple copies" makes them corrupted. Specifically, I think, any partly-repainted regions become transparent, and remain so until the window is fully repainted.

gnome-calculator demonstrates the problem quite nicely.

Verified mentioned first bad commit glitches, and commit before it works.  With wayland 0.85.

Comment 2 Uli Schlachter 2012-04-05 09:42:55 UTC
Something caught my eye in that commit:

(In function composite_boxes(), cairo-gl-spans-compositor.c, line 371)

-    _cairo_gl_operand_translate (&setup.mask, -src_x, -src_y);
+    _cairo_gl_operand_translate (&setup.src, -src_x, -src_y);

From the surrounding code, I see that this change makes sense. However, it seems unrelated to the rest of this commit. Could someone check if just reverting this change makes the problems go away?

Disclaimer: I have no clue what I am doing here. :-)

I tried, it didn't help.

Patch against 38a242a which fixes this bug

Just

-       spans.draw_image_boxes = draw_image_boxes;
+//     spans.draw_image_boxes = draw_image_boxes;

in src/cairo-gl-spans-compositor.c
Comment 5 Darxus 2012-04-12 07:45:57 UTC
Ugh, please ignore the previous comment.  That change did not fix this problem.
Comment 6 Darxus 2012-04-12 08:03:17 UTC
src/cairo-gl-spans-compositor.c

-       spans.copy_boxes = copy_boxes;
+//     spans.copy_boxes = copy_boxes;

Doesn't seem to fix it either.

patch?

The attached sign-swap in _cairo_gl_operand_translate fixes this bug for me. I've checked gnome-calculator and gtk3-demo in wayland, and this fixes both of them.

I don't understand the code well enough to know why this fixes it, or why it was this way in the first place.
