Screenshotted the just-split display on request rather than guessing --
it showed why windows never seem to remember placement/size, plus two
real split-screen bugs.
Window memory (WindowManager::remembered_geometry) was correctly wired
on the read side, but the only writes came from end_drag/end_resize in
dragresize.rs - a real drag or resize. A window the user opens, looks
at, and closes without ever touching its edges had nothing recorded, so
reopening it always fell back to a fresh cascade placement, for what is
probably most ordinary window lifecycles. remove_window now also
snapshots geometry (same app_id-non-empty gate the drag/resize sites
use), persisted at both of its wayland-side call sites the same way the
drag/resize-release site already does.
desktop_icon_origins mirrored the full icon set onto every Monitor entry
when general.desktop_icons_all_monitors is on - which, after a
srd.monitor.split, is one entry per split part of the same physical
screen, not one per real monitor. Extracted into a separately-tested
icon_origins_for that collapses split parts of the same connector back
to one origin, keeping a genuinely separate monitor's own origin intact.
Found while fixing that: every split part also reported primary: true
(computed from the connector's name, which doesn't vary per part) --
fixed by gating on part == 0 too.

XWayland stability, GPU rendering, and multi-cursor Phase 2
The bulk of a multi-session shift's real work landed in crates/wayland.
Full root-cause/verification narrative for every item below lives in
docs/TODO.md (each has its own dated entry); this is the summary:
Desktop shell:
- Real desktop icons v2 (state/desktop_icons.rs, desktop_icons.rs):
fixed origin-baked-before-the-bar-connects, fixed-icon sort order, and
a proper Rename/Delete-to-Trash menu (window_memory.rs backs the
rename-persistence side). Rubber-band marquee multi-select.
- icon_theme.rs: real freedesktop icon-theme lookup (inherits chain,
hicolor fallback) rendering actual theme SVGs via resvg/tiny-skia,
replacing the hand-drawn placeholder glyphs.
- Context/desktop menus (decoration.rs, desktop_menu.rs, state/menu.rs)
rebuilt to match the project's own AGS panel styling: rounded floating
panel, tinted-fill row highlight, real separators, a much fuller
titlebar window-menu action set.
Layer-shell / multi-monitor:
- Layer-shell hit-testing and render positioning (input/pointer.rs,
udev/render.rs's element placement) now correctly convert LayerMap's
logical geometry into physical pixels on a fractionally-scaled output
- root cause of a bottom-anchored dock being unclickable and
unpainted while a top-anchored bar on the same output worked.
udev/outputs.rs's relayout_outputs gained the same physical/logical
split for cross-output positioning, now backed by a real unit test
(next_logical_x) built from the original measured incident numbers.
- state/geometry.rs: a window's border/decoration no longer briefly
clips when moved between differently-scaled monitors mid-drag.
XWayland / stability:
- xwayland.rs, udev/session.rs, udev/platform.rs: fixed a 100%-
reproducible cold-start XKEYBOARD crash-loop (XWayland's own stdin
inherited a real, already-owned VT; env passthrough and idle-callback
spawn timing were both real, independent gaps) that had silently taken
down all X11-app support and the global-menu registrar every session.
- state/toplevel.rs, state/lifecycle.rs: XWayland dialog detection via
WM_TRANSIENT_FOR, not just a native xdg_toplevel parent.
Rendering:
- udev/render.rs, decoration.rs: real GPU (GBM+EGL+DrmCompositor)
window-content and cursor rendering on the udev backend, falling back
to the untouched Pixman path automatically on any init failure.
- decoration/tests.rs, state/mod.rs: rounded-corner/border fixes for
interactive resize lag and cross-monitor moves.
Multi-cursor Phase 2 (virtual_pointer.rs, new; state/mod.rs, udev/
platform.rs, winit/nested_platform.rs): pins a zwlr_virtual_pointer_
unstable_v1 object to a specific window, bypassing the shared seat/
focus/pointer_pos path entirely via hand-rolled wl_pointer.enter/motion/
button/frame/leave against every WlPointer the target client has bound
(PointerHandle::client_pointers). Lets an agent operate one window while
a human uses another, genuinely simultaneously, with zero client
cooperation and no second wl_seat (confirmed a dead end: real clients
only ever bind the first seat advertised).
Full workspace build/test/clippy clean.

parent
Window::is_dialog (close-button-only titlebar, no traffic lights) was
only ever set from a native xdg_toplevel's own parent() - redraw_
decoration_buffer's is_dialog computation called dw.toplevel(), which
is always None for an XWayland-backed DWindow (X11Surface's own
accessor is x11_surface(), a different method), so the .unwrap_or(false)
fallback made every XWayland dialog - a GTK "Save As", an app's own
"About" box, anything setting the ICCCM transient-for hint - always
draw with the full three-button titlebar and traffic-light colours,
even though the feature this was built for explicitly wanted the
opposite. Documented as a known gap at the time; now closed.
redraw_decoration_buffer now also checks X11Surface::is_transient_for()
for an XWayland window. property_notify gained a WmWindowProperty::
TransientFor arm that re-runs redraw_decoration_buffer, for a client
that sets the hint slightly after its own initial map - the same
"read fresh every call" pattern the existing xdg_toplevel::parent()
check already relied on, extended to catch a late X11 property the way
the Wayland equivalent (set_parent, any time) already was.

Safety commit before reconciling this worktree with main, which has
diverged with its own separate fixes today. Nothing here is reviewed
or curated yet - this exists purely so none of this work can be lost
to a git operation, disk issue, or worktree cleanup while that
reconciliation happens.

resume, plumbing
Bundles the remaining wayland-crate changes built up here,
touching both backends (udev and winit) and the shared input/rendering
code:
- udev/capture.rs: off-screen Pixman render of an arbitrary (not
necessarily on-screen) workspace's window content to a PPM file --
what crates/core's capture-request queue drives, for a workspace
switcher's thumbnail previews. wlr-screencopy structurally can't do
this (it can only see what an output is presenting), which is why
this exists as a separate render path rather than reusing it.
- input::focus_window now also raises the window in smithay's own
Space, not just core's stacking order - Space is what actually
renders on top and what pointer hit-testing reads, so any focus path
that skipped this (an IPC "focus" dispatch, concretely) left a
window genuinely focused while still rendering, and receiving
clicks, underneath whatever was already topmost. Both backends'
poll loops now re-sync this after any IPC mutation.
- udev/session.rs's VT-switch resume fix (drains a stale pending page
flip before reasserting CRTCs) already has its own earlier, cleanly
isolated commit - not duplicated here.
- Assorted decoration/cursor/rounded-corners/output-management/
screencopy/XWayland changes and their cross-backend wiring.
Coarser than the repo's usual one-purpose-per-commit convention,
deliberately - see the core-crate sweep commit's own message for why.

read_global_menu unconditionally preferred MenuSource::Gtk whenever a
GTK menubar path resolved - but appmenu-gtk-module exports a plain
Gtk.Window's menu (no GtkApplication, so no _GTK_APPLICATION_OBJECT_
PATH/_GTK_WINDOW_OBJECT_PATH) through its Unity-compatibility shim,
unity.-prefixed actions and all, while still setting _GTK_MENUBAR_
OBJECT_PATH. Labeling that Gtk meant a consumer inserted app/win
action groups the app never populated instead of a unity one it did --
every menu item rendered, but permanently insensitive, since none of
them resolved against a group that existed. This was flagged as a
known risk in this function's own doc comment when `source` was first
added, but the priority logic itself never got the fix.
Root-caused live by an AGS peer session: read the actual exported menu
content off the bus for a real appmenu-gtk-module app and found
unity.-prefixed actions at the GTK atom's own path, with app_path/
window_path both empty - confirming that emptiness is the reliable
tell, not which atom happened to resolve.
Fixed by preferring Unity whenever app_path/window_path are both
absent, even if a GTK menubar path resolved - the path itself doesn't
change, only the label. Pulled the decision out into a standalone
classify_menu_source function so it's unit-testable without a real X
connection, with the exact live case as a regression test.

map_window_request only ever read window.title()/.class() once, at
MapRequest - for a client whose managed window doesn't carry
WM_NAME/WM_CLASS at that exact moment (or the properties simply arrive
later), Window.title/app_id stayed permanently empty. That reaches
srd.rule's class matching, this compositor's own titlebar text, and
every wlr-foreign-toplevel-management listener (a dock's running
indicator, an app switcher, icon lookup) - confirmed live via a peer
session's AGS instance rendering blank rows for Spotify and OpenSnitch.
Implements XwmHandler::property_notify (previously unhandled, a
no-op default) to re-read title/class on WmWindowProperty::Title/Class
and update Window plus notify rule/decoration/foreign-toplevel
listeners on an actual change - the XWayland-side mirror of
sync_toplevel_metadata, which already exists for exactly this problem
on the native xdg-shell path (see its own doc comment).
Not fully verified against the specific live case that surfaced this:
whether XWayland's X11Wm delivers property_notify for a *managed*
window whose real WM_NAME/WM_CLASS live only on an unmanaged sibling/
child (rather than arriving late on the same window) is still an open
question - this fixes the well-documented "arrives late" case with
certainty, and may or may not cover that harder case too.

~17 comments across the codebase still pointed at udev.rs/winit.rs/
state.rs by their old flat-file names after those became udev/,
winit/, state/ directories - found while auditing what this work
rushed, since the split verification (function/struct-name diffing,
full test suite) checked structural correctness but never comment
accuracy. Updated each to either the specific new file (e.g. "see
state.rs's REPEAT_DELAY" -> "see state/mod.rs's REPEAT_DELAY",
"udev.rs's monitors()" -> "udev/platform.rs's monitors()") or the bare
module name where the reference was already generic ("the udev/winit
backends", not a specific location).

IPC/global-menu/output-management work
Border/titlebar decoration was built from Window.geometry (the animation's
final target) in both wayland backends' render loops, while sync_geometry
already draws a window's actual content at window_anims' interpolated rect
during any maximize/fullscreen/open-slide tween. Border and content read two
different rectangles for the whole transition, so the border visibly
detached from the window it was outlining - reported as "borders aren't
flush." Both udev.rs and winit.rs now read the same animated rect for
titlebar placement, border-strip placement, and the occlusion test against
later windows in stacking order. Verified: cargo build --workspace, cargo
clippy (0 new warnings), cargo test -p srdwm-core (111/111).
Also checkpoints substantial protocol/IPC work from prior sessions that had
accumulated uncommitted: gtk-shell1 support (gtk_shell.rs, the vendored
gtk-shell.xml, xwayland.rs's X11-side mirror) backing the global app menu;
zwlr_foreign_toplevel_manager_v1 (foreign_toplevel.rs) broadcasting distinct
maximized/minimized/fullscreen/activated state per window; output_management
(ext-output-management + layer-shell exclusive-zone reservation tracking);
workspace.rs and context_menu.rs; a Unix-socket IPC crate (platform/src/
ipc.rs) and a `srd` control-CLI crate (crates/ctl); xkb_config.rs; and a
theme module (core/src/theme.rs). A peer session working the AGS shell
concurrently verified several of these live against a running srdwm: the
global menu rendering a real app's File/Edit menu over gtk-shell1, and
foreign-toplevel correctly reporting maximized and fullscreen as independent,
non-simultaneous states with the geometry each implies (maximize stops at a
reserved top bar and past a dock; fullscreen reaches the true monitor edge).

Implements the protocols that were blocking srdwm-wayland from being a real
session, plus multi-monitor, and splits the backend into modules. Everything
here was verified by running it against real clients, not just compiled.
Protocols
- wlr-layer-shell + xdg-output: bars/launchers/notifications. xdg-output is
not optional in practice - without it wofi segfaults rather than
degrading, since it calls get_xdg_output without null-checking.
- Clipboard: wl_data_device_manager, primary selection, and wlr-data-control.
Data-control is what `wl-paste --watch cliphist store` needs, as it reads
the selection without holding focus. Selection focus now follows keyboard
focus, without which a focused window can neither copy nor paste.
- ext-session-lock: `locked` gates rendering and input. No key is treated as
a WM binding while locked - the config binds Mod4+Return to spawn a
terminal, so honouring bindings at a locked screen would defeat the lock.
The lock is confirmed only after a client-content-free frame has actually
been presented, never at request time.
- wlr-screencopy (hand-written; smithay ships no helper) for grim/slurp.
Multi-monitor
Every connected connector becomes a head with its own buffers, damage
tracker and page-flip state, matched by CRTC so differing refresh rates
don't gate each other. Outputs are reached through primary_output/output_at/
output_for_wl rather than a single field, which kept the change to ~11 call
sites. Session lock creates one lock surface per output and waits for all of
them, so a second monitor can't still show the desktop when the locker is
told the session is safe. Modes are picked by the PREFERRED flag, not list
order, and CRTCs are never double-assigned.
Bugs found by testing, not review
- Nothing gave a newly-created window Wayland focus: a freshly-opened app
received no keystrokes and could not paste until clicked.
- Opening a window at a locked screen stole keyboard focus. Caught by
counting wl_keyboard.enter delivered to a client launched while locked:
1 before the guard, 0 after. A killed locker correctly leaves it locked.
- Reading back the winit EGL window surface destroyed the GL context on the
first screencopy capture, taking the compositor down. Root-caused by
A/B-ing the same build with only the readback removed; capture now renders
an offscreen pass.
- Output mode was resent every frame at 60Hz, flooding any client bound to
wl_output with duplicate mode/done events.
- general.default_layout was defaulted and validated but never read, so
setting it did nothing. srdwm is dynamic-first (Windows/macOS style, with
drag-to-edge snapping); tiling is one opt-in layout, and that stays true.
- .gitignore's unanchored `srdwm` matched any path component of that name,
silently excluding the whole crates/srdwm source crate - the binary crate
the workspace lists as a member, so a fresh clone could not build.
Modularization
lib.rs went from ~1260 lines to 78: state, protocols, input, lock,
screencopy, winit and udev now each own one responsibility. lock is grouped
by feature rather than kind on purpose, since its security invariant spans
state, protocol handling and rendering at once.
Multi-monitor was verified in the QEMU VM with a two-output virtio-gpu: both
heads screendumped at their own resolution showing srdwm's clear colour, and
a window forced to global x=1500 landed on head 1 at head-local x=220 while
head 0 stayed empty. Known limitation, now documented: the nested winit
backend stalls while its window is occluded, because the host stops
scheduling frames and eglSwapBuffers blocks.

Three real bugs found and fixed via WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 protocol tracing in
the QEMU VM, plus a fourth found along the way:
- XWayland tried glamor (GBM rendering) first, which fails against this
deliberately software-only compositor; its post-failure fallback path
never used the xwayland_shell_v1 protocol at all, so X11Surface::
wl_surface() never resolved. Fixed by shadowing `Xwayland` on PATH with
a wrapper script that always re-execs it with -shm (smithay's
XWayland::spawn hardcodes its own argv and can't be bypassed either,
since XWaylandClientData's fields are private).
- Even with -shm, set_mapped(true) was only called after wl_surface()
already resolved, deadlocking XWayland (it never advances a window past
surface creation until the map is granted). Fixed by calling
set_mapped(true) unconditionally in map_window_request.
- The window then rendered as a ~1px sliver: initial geometry was seeded
from X11Surface::geometry(), which can still be a tiny default at
MapRequest time. Fixed by using the same 800x600 default the xdg-shell
path already uses.
- Typing didn't reach the window until a broader, XWayland-independent
bug was fixed: nothing in the Wayland backend ever called
KeyboardHandle::set_focus, so no window (native or X11) could ever
receive keyboard input. Fixed in handle_pointer_button, along with
TitlebarHit::Close being X11-surface-blind.
Verified live: xterm launched via XWayland renders correctly sized and
decorated, and a synthetic keypress sequence (ls + Enter) executed in its
shell, screendump-confirmed.

- srd.rule(): match windows by title/class, apply floating/maximized/
workspace/geometry/decoration actions on creation (crates/core/src/rules.rs)
- srd.validate_config()/srd.debug.*: real range/format checks and
status/profiling helpers, replacing the always-true stub
- Wayland titlebar text rendering via fontdue, unit-tested without a
display (crates/wayland/src/decoration.rs)
- Wayland precise keybinding matching, replacing the "any Super-held key"
heuristic, sharing the keysym table with X11 (moved to
crates/core/src/keysyms.rs)
- Wayland DRM/udev backend (crates/wayland/src/udev.rs): runs as the real
compositor on a bare TTY via libseat/libinput/KMS, software rendering
via Pixman + dumb buffers (no GBM/EGL required)
- srdwm_platform::detect() fix, found via VM testing: a bare TTY with no
DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY now correctly resolves to Wayland instead of an
X11 backend that can never work there
- XWayland integration groundwork (crates/wayland/src/xwayland.rs): spawn,
X11Wm, and full XwmHandler event routing into the same WindowManager/
Space pipeline as native clients. Windows don't render yet - a real
glamor-vs-software-renderer conflict in XWayland's own fallback path,
root-caused via WAYLAND_DEBUG tracing and documented in
docs/IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md rather than worked around blind.
All verified live in an isolated QEMU VM: X11 backend shows two
decorated, correctly-tiled xterms with real title text; the DRM/udev
Wayland backend opens the GPU, initializes input, and scans out a
rendered frame via KMS page-flip.
