It's better to use DT_RPATH dynamic section of the elf binary to store
the paths of libraries to load instead of overwriting LD_LIBRARY_PATH
for the whole environment, causing surprises. This solution is much more
transparent and perfectly suitable for running contained installations
of wayland/wlroots/sway.
The code unsetting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LD_PRELOAD was also deleted as
it's a placebo security at best - we should trust the execution path
that leads us to running sway, and it's way too late to care about those
variables since we already started executing our compositor, thus we
would be compromised anyway.
When the last output is disconnected, output_disable is called like
usual and evacuates the output to the root->saved_workspaces list. It
then calls root_for_each_container to remove (untrack) the output from
each container's outputs list. However root_for_each_container did not
iterate the saved workspaces, so when the output gets freed the
containers would have a dangling pointer in their outputs list. Upon
reconnect, container_discover_outputs would attempt to use the dangling
pointer, causing a crash.
This makes root_for_each_container check the saved workspaces list,
which fixes the problem.
This changes it back so the path given to swaybg is enclosed in quotes.
Additionally, the only character that is escaped in the path stored is
double quotes now. This makes it so we don't need to keep an exhaustive
list of characters that need to be escaped.
The end user will still need to escape these characters in their config
or when passed to swaybg.
This changes our gaps implementation to behave like i3-gaps.
Our previous implementation allowed you to set gaps on a per container
basis. This isn't supported by i3-gaps and doesn't seem to have a
practical use case. The gaps_outer and gaps_inner properties on
containers are now removed as they just read the gaps_inner from the
workspace.
`gaps inner|outer <px>` no longer changes the gaps for all workspaces.
It only sets defaults for new workspaces.
`gaps inner|outer current|workspace|all set|plus|minus <px>` is now
runtime only, and the workspace option is now removed. `current` now
sets gaps for the current workspace as opposed to the current container.
`workspace <ws> gaps inner|outer <px>` is now implemented. This sets
defaults for a workspace.
This also fixes a bug where changing the layout of a split container
from linear to tabbed would cause gaps to not be applied to it until you
switch to another workspace and back.
When we eventually implement `workspace <ws> gaps inner|outer <px>`,
we'll need to store the gaps settings for workspaces before they're
created. Rather than create a workspace_gaps struct, the approach I'm
taking is to rename workspace_outputs to workspace_configs and then add
gaps settings to that.
I've added a lookup function workspace_find_config. Note that we have a
similar thing for outputs (output_config struct and output_find_config).
Lastly, when freeing config it would create a memory leak by freeing the
list items but not the workspace or output names inside them. This has
been rectified using a free_workspace_config function.
This involves setuid'ing swaylock, which then forks and drops perms on
the parent process. The child process remains root and listens on a pipe
for requests to validate passwords against /etc/shadow.
