Enable image randomized base address, hindering some types of
security attacks by making it more difficult for an attacker
to predict target addresses.
-Release currently doesn't use precompiled headers at all
-Debug is broken since common/*.c files don't include common.h
-PCH can be enabled for all but specifically-chosen c-files
SW_CANVAS_NO_CHUNKS isn't used anywhere but in this file.
SW_CANVAS_CACHE is now defined directly in the files where it's
needed so we no longer need it in the .vcproj file.
spice client and spice server shares code from
common/{gdi,gl,sw}_canvas.[ch]. However, while most of the code is
shared, the server code wants a canvas compiled with
SW_CANVAS_IMAGE_CACHE defined while the client code wants a canvas
compiled with SW_CANVAS_CACHE.
The initial autotools refactoring didn't take that into account,
this is now fixed by this commit. After this commit, the canvas
files from common/ are no longer compiled as part of the
libspice-common.la convenience library. Instead, there are "proxy"
canvas source files in client/ and server/ which #include the
appropriate C files after defining the relevant #define for the
binary that is being built.
To prevent misuse of the canvas c files and headers in common/,
SPICE_CANVAS_INTERNAL must be set when including the canvas headers
from common/ or when building the c files from common/ otherwise
the build will error out.
client/ contains several .cpp file which only #include a .c file
of the same name. This is unusual and seems to only be done to
get C++ name mangling on the symbols defined in the C file.
Now that all headers files in common/ use extern "C", these
wrappers are no longer useful.

-remove IgnoreDefaultLibraryNames="MSVCRT.lib", since pixman is now compiled
using MT threading model similar to other libraries. It used to be mistakenly
compiled with MD.
-downgrade freetype lib to 2.3.11-7, which is the one used/tested with
CEGUI 0.6.2
-pthread lib patched (InterlockedCompareExchange), so x64 client will no
longer crash on SelectClipRgn, BitBlt etc.
instead of ..\..\..\spice-protocol. Relative path to another git tree is a bit
ugly, since it requires spice-protocol to be in a specific location.
SPICE_PROTOCOL_DIR should also be used in windows qxl and vdagent instead of
SPICE_COMMON_DIR, which is an old and confusing name, due to the common
directory in spice git repo.
This patch stops us from drawing the spice client watermark at the top of
the virtual machine view. We have had requests through several channels to
remove this as it has little added value, and is seen as annoying by some.
Given that we now also have a bugzilla for this I think it is time we really
remove it.
Spice client controller enables external control (e.g., by XPI or ActiveX) of
the client functionality.
The controller protocol enables setting parameters (host, port, sport, pwd,
secure channels, disabled channels, title, menus, hotkeys etc.), connecting
the server, showing and hiding the client etc.
The controller is based on the cross-platform named pipe.
Spice foreign menu enables external control of the client menu.
The foreignmenu protocol enables an external application to:
add a submenu, set its title, clear it, add/modify/remove an item etc.
Foreign menu is based on the cross-platform named pipe.
When a message has been read from the network we now pass it into
the generated demarshaller for the channel. The demarshaller converts
the network data to in-memory structures that is passed on to the
spice internals.
Additionally it also:
* Converts endianness
* Validates sizes of message and any pointers in it
* Localizes offsets (converts them to pointers)
* Checks for zero offsets in messages where they are not supported
Some of this was previously done using custom code in the client, this
is now removed.
This is pretty straightforward, although there are two weird issues.
The current encoder has two bugs in the yuv conversion. First of all
it switches red and blue, due to something of an endianness issue. We
keep this behavior by switching red and blue. Maybe we want to
change this in the new protocol version since switching this may
cause jpeg compression to be worse.
Secondly, the old coder/decoder did rgb to/from yuv420 wrongly for
jpeg, not using the "full scale" version of Y that is used in jpeg,
but the other one where y goes from 16 to 235. (See jpeg/jfif
reference on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YCbCr for details.)
The new decoder uses the full range in order to get better quality,
which means old encoders will show slightly darker images.
This completely removes all ffmpeg usage in the client
Every place that does a regular malloc/calloc and aborts on failure
should use spice_malloc/spice_mallo0 instead, which is leaner and cleaner.
Allocations of dynamically sized arrays can use g_malloc_n or g_new etc
which correctly handle multiplication overflow if some of the arguments
are not trusted.
Additional changes that were required for the feature:
1) focusing on the pointed window in full screen mode
2) In X11 - handling events that occur during keyboard ungrabbing
3) In X11 - handling Leave/Enter Notify events that occur during keyboard grabbing/ungrabbing
4) In X11 - fix for focus events that are handled in the wrong order (happens when
focus events occur during grabbing the keyboard)
5) In X11 - ignoring key release events during key holding
6) In Windows - synchronizing keyboard release events that occured during a modal loop
The process loop is responsible for: 1) waiting for events 2) timers 3) events queue for
actions that should be performed in the context of the thread and are pushed from other threads.
The benefits:
1) remove duplicity: till now, there was one implementaion of events loop for the channels and
another one for the main thread.
2) timers can be executed on each thread and not only on the main thread.
3) events can be pushed to each thread and not only to the main thread.
In this commit, only the main thread was modified to use the new process loop.
