 Cairo side-by-side windows scrolling fix should be cherry-picked
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 10:15:09 +0200

Scrolling in --with-cairo -build doesn't work when there are
side-by-side split windows. That was fixed in the master branch by
commit 6e362a32bc9d21f73a0f29ca6f45481edeea6f29

Thanks, but I'm not convinced we should backport that change.  We
don't fix every bug on the release branch, only the important onces.
And the Cairo configuration doesn't strike me as important, what with
all the additional known bugs specific to it.

That said, I'm open to arguments to the contrary.

An argument could be made about the lesser impotance of stability 
guarantees for the Cairo users (since it's already broken). So I'd ask 
whether the given patch makes it considerably more usable, so that more 
people are likely to try the --with-cairo build and submit patches/bug 
reports/etc.

IIRC, somebody said it's the best approach we have for supporting 
Wayland someday. I think it's a worthy goal.

Good point.  I'd like to know the answer to that.

Sure, but it needs someone to work on making it usable and on fixing
the bugs.  Otherwise, it's just a teaser.

Cairo fixes went to the release branch after 26.1 was tagged
(commit aac541e75e2c22d05752025c2087ae2eea4cb525). 
This patch is a left-over that fixes the scrolling when the window is
split side-by-side.

I have been using --with-cairo for my Emacs builds for six months, and
haven't had any major problems with it.

Curious.

I've just tried building the master branch --with-cairo (on GNU/Linux), 
and I see crippling rendering problems right away. Maybe the same issue 
as reported at https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=23925.

It does work here. I use gnome-shell on Xwayland.
Could you try the following patch, if it helps?

No change.

It's probably also related to HiDPI: the area that gets refreshed is at 
half the window size and height. And my desktop scaling factor is 2.

X+Unity+Compiz+Ubuntu 18.04.1 here, though. I'll have to try it with 
GNOME sometime.

That seems to be it: Starting Emacs with
  GDK_SCALE=2 emacs -Q
shows the problem here, too.

Thanks for that. I've just tried a --with-cairo build with

    GDK_SCALE=1 emacs

and it seems to work well, (even) without your extra patch. Aside from 
the expected problems with toolbar icons and scrollbar (too small), 
which I don't use anyway.

So maybe we shouldn't think of the Cairo build as too broken anymore.

How many users will agree to demote the DPI just to have the Cairo
build working?  IOW, is the above a viable solution, or is it
something many users will regard as unacceptable?

I think so. The toolbar buttons and the scrollbar handle are simply 
smaller, and a lot of hardcore users disable them anyway.

The font size or rendering quality don't seem to be affected by the 
scaling factor.

Still, some users won't like it, or will simply be confused if they have 
to hunt for "GDK_SCALE=1 emacs" in the PROBLEMS file, so we have to fix 
that sooner a later, too. But it seems to be a separate bug, not one 
we've already seen reported. And, judging from the past bug reports, 
problems like this are relatively easy to fix.

Works for me. Since this is all Cairo-only code, it could even go into
emacs-26, I think (with a ChangeLog and perhaps some comments).

In any case, HiDPI users are still the minority, and the commit 
requested to be backported is a localized fix for an obvious, 
easy-to-reproduce regression (scrolling is indeed broken, I tested with 
and without the patch).

So I highly suggest we allow it.

OK, let's do that.

The following patch fixes the scaling problem in Cairo builds. The
scrolling issue with side-by-side windows is in master branch (commit
6e362a32bc9d21f73a0f29ca6f45481edeea6f29), and can be cherry-picked.

I pushed this to the emacs-26 branch, thanks.

Not sure there was a consensus about this part:

Thoughts?

That was about scaling, no?  And Robert only replied to the scaling
part, AFAIU.

Why is side-by-side scrolling important enough to get it in emacs-26?

In part it was about "so what if the scaling is broken".

You mean why 'C-x 3 C-v C-v C-v' should work? Seems like a basic 
functionality.

Yes, and it works on master.  And never worked before since the code
was written.  I was asking why it has to be on emacs-26, and hoped for
responses that take the pros and cons into consideration and show how
the pros win over cons.

If that is true, I have no strong arguments for why it "has to" be on 
emacs-26.

But I'm not seeing any cons either. It's not like there are any 
plausible Cairo build users that are fine with the current state of 
emacs-26 but would get annoyed by any possible regression that the patch 
in question might introduce.

Anyway, it seems I've already made all the applicable arguments at the 
beginning of this discussion. So I'll stop here.

I thought we were in a state on emacs-26 where we can get away with
cherry-picking minor fixes like the side-by-side stuff, precisely
because cairo is disabled by default.  Also if any brave soul does
turn it on on emacs-26, we should probably strive to have fixed things
for them that are easy to fix.

On a separate note, should we turn cairo on by default in master? It
will still only get compiled for people who have the appropriate
development packages installed.

OK, please cherry-pick that part as well.

I have no strong opinion on this.  IMO, the decision should be based
on what those who use Cairo say about its stability.  I'd also
encourage people to see whether the reported bugs are still there, or
maybe they were solved indirectly.

I donʼt use it myself at the moment. Iʼve only seen Ari report that he
uses is regularly.

I won't presume to speak about stability, but I've tried whatever 
related bug reports I could find, and most seem fixed (bug#28236 being 
the exception).

Good to know, thanks.  I think 28236 is important enough to try to
solve it before we re-enable Cairo by default.
