Generic wayland protocols

Modules

alpha_modifierstaging

This interface allows a client to set a factor for the alpha values on a surface, which can be used to offload such operations to the compositor, which can in turn for example offload them to KMS.

commit_timingstaging

When a compositor latches on to new content updates it will check for any number of requirements of the available content updates (such as fences of all buffers being signalled) to consider the update ready.

content_typestaging

This protocol allows a client to describe the kind of content a surface will display, to allow the compositor to optimize its behavior for it.

cursor_shapestaging and unstable

This protocol extension offers a simpler way for clients to set a cursor.

drm_leasestaging

This protocol is used by Wayland compositors which act as Direct Renderering Manager (DRM) masters to lease DRM resources to Wayland clients.

fifostaging

When a Wayland compositor considers applying a content update, it must ensure all the update’s readiness constraints (fences, etc) are met.

fractional_scalestaging

This protocol allows a compositor to suggest for surfaces to render at fractional scales.

fullscreen_shellunstable

Fullscreen shell protocol

idle_inhibitunstable

Screensaver inhibition protocol

input_methodunstable

Input method protocol

input_timestampsunstable

Input timestamps protocol

keyboard_shortcuts_inhibitunstable

Protocol for inhibiting the compositor keyboard shortcuts

linux_dmabuf

Linux DMA-BUF protocol

linux_drm_syncobjstaging

This protocol allows clients to request explicit synchronization for buffers. It is tied to the Linux DRM synchronization object framework.

linux_explicit_synchronizationunstable

Linux explicit synchronization protocol

pointer_constraintsunstable

protocol for constraining pointer motions

pointer_gesturesunstable

Pointer gestures protocol

presentation_time

Presentation time protocol

primary_selectionunstable

Primary selection protocol

relative_pointerunstable

protocol for relative pointer motion events

security_contextstaging

This interface allows a client to register a new Wayland connection to the compositor and attach a security context to it.

single_pixel_bufferstaging

This protocol extension allows clients to create single-pixel buffers.

tablet

Wayland protocol for graphics tablets

tearing_controlstaging

This protocol provides a way for clients to indicate whether or not their content is suitable for this kind of presentation.

text_inputunstable

Text input protocol

viewporter

Viewporter protocol
