Retrieve the interface name (class) of a resource object.

Returns

Interface name of the resource object.

Get the associated client

Returns

the client that owns the resource.

Get the internal ID of the resource

Returns

the internal ID of the resource

Get interface version

Returns

Interface version this resource has been constructed with.

Post 'not enough memory' error to the client

If the compositor has not enough memory to fulfill a certail request of the client, this function can be called to notify the client of this circumstance.

the content update was displayed

Parameters

tv_sec_hi high 32 bits of the seconds part of the presentation timestamp
tv_sec_lo low 32 bits of the seconds part of the presentation timestamp
tv_nsec nanoseconds part of the presentation timestamp
refresh nanoseconds till next refresh
seq_hi high 32 bits of refresh counter
seq_lo low 32 bits of refresh counter
flags combination of 'kind' values

The associated content update was displayed to the user at the indicated time (tv_sec_hi/lo, tv_nsec). For the interpretation of the timestamp, see presentation.clock_id event.

The timestamp corresponds to the time when the content update turned into light the first time on the surface's main output. Compositors may approximate this from the framebuffer flip completion events from the system, and the latency of the physical display path if known.

This event is preceded by all related sync_output events telling which output's refresh cycle the feedback corresponds to, i.e. the main output for the surface. Compositors are recommended to choose the output containing the largest part of the wl_surface, or keeping the output they previously chose. Having a stable presentation output association helps clients predict future output refreshes (vblank).

The 'refresh' argument gives the compositor's prediction of how many nanoseconds after tv_sec, tv_nsec the very next output refresh may occur. This is to further aid clients in predicting future refreshes, i.e., estimating the timestamps targeting the next few vblanks. If such prediction cannot usefully be done, the argument is zero.

If the output does not have a constant refresh rate, explicit video mode switches excluded, then the refresh argument must be zero.

The 64-bit value combined from seq_hi and seq_lo is the value of the output's vertical retrace counter when the content update was first scanned out to the display. This value must be compatible with the definition of MSC in GLX_OML_sync_control specification. Note, that if the display path has a non-zero latency, the time instant specified by this counter may differ from the timestamp's.

If the output does not have a concept of vertical retrace or a refresh cycle, or the output device is self-refreshing without a way to query the refresh count, then the arguments seq_hi and seq_lo must be zero.

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.

Returns

true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty

presentation synchronized to this output

Parameters

output presentation output

As presentation can be synchronized to only one output at a time, this event tells which output it was. This event is only sent prior to the presented event.

As clients may bind to the same global wl_output multiple times, this event is sent for each bound instance that matches the synchronized output. If a client has not bound to the right wl_output global at all, this event is not sent.
