Instead of always running the responsiveness timer for IPC clients,
we now only start it after sending a message. This avoids waking up
otherwise idle clients to do ping/pong busywork.
IPC::ClientConnection now tracks the time since the last time we got
a message from the client and calls a virtual function on itself after
3 seconds: may_have_become_unresponsive().
Subclasses of ClientConnection can then react to this if they like.
We use this mechanism in WindowServer to send out a friendly Ping
message to the client. If he doesn't Pong within 1 second, we mark
the client as "unresponsive" and recompose all of his windows with
a darkened appearance and amended title until he Pongs us.
This is a little on the aggressive side and we should figure out a way
to wake up less often. Perhaps this could only be done to windows the
user is currently interacting with, for example.
Anyways, this is pretty cool! :^)
Each window now has an associated progress integer that can be updated
via the SetWindowProgress IPC call.
This can be used by clients to indicate the progress of ongoing tasks.
Any number in the range 0 through 100 indicate a progress percentage.
Any other number means "no progress"
Instead, we now tell Windows to invalidate themselves. Window will then
pass on the requests to Compositor.
My basic idea here is that WindowManager should do window management,
dealing with incoming events, moving, resizing, etc. Compositor should
deal with painting the window stack in the right order with the least
amount of effort. :^)
This commit moves the clipboard from WindowServer into a new Clipboard
service program. Clipboard runs as the unprivileged "clipboard" user
and with a much tighter pledge than WindowServer.
To keep things working as before, all GUI::Application users now make
a connection to Clipboard after making the connection to WindowServer.
It could be interesting to connect to Clipboard on demand, but right
now that would necessitate expanding every GUI app's pledge to include
"unix" and also unveiling the clipboard portal, which I prefer not to.
It didn't feel right to have a "DHCPClient" in a "Servers" directory.
Rename this to Services to better reflect the type of programs we'll
be putting in there.
