This full packed release comes with three new staging protocols:

  • system bell - allowing e.g. terminal emulators to hand off system bell alerts to the compositor for among other things accessibility purposes

  • fifo - for implementing first in first out surface content update behavior

  • commit timing - for adding time constraints to surface content update

Other than this, the presentation timing protocol protocol got a version minor bump describing how to deal with variable refresh rate.

Other protocols saw the regular clarifications and bug fixes, and some deprecated events is now properly indicated as such in the XML. Please see individual commits for details.

    Well the first step would probably be to open an issue.

      It’s being worked on for years (or even decades lol). I highly doubt there isn’t an opened issue about it.

        I highly doubt there isn’t an opened issue about it.

        There’s actually not. But there’s an open MR.
