We erronously ignored data from guest on the serial channel if no client is
connected. This leads to an assert when the guest writes a second time, since
there is still data unconsumed by us (the host).
Fix by reading data anyway, and discarding it after parsing (and reading) whole
messages from the guest.
Net affect is that any messages the agent sends while no client is connected
get discarded, but only full messages are discarded.
This fixes an abort if booting a winxp guest with vdagent without a connected
client.

Currently when going / starting fullscreen if the guest resolution for one of
the monitors is higher then that monitor on the client can handle, we show a
white screen. Leaving the user stuck (unless they know the fullscreen key
switch combi) with a white screen when starting the client fullscreen from
the XPI.
This patch changes the client to fall back to windowed mode in this case
instead.
When XIM + ibus is in use XIM creates an invisible window for its own
purposes, we sometimes get a _GTK_LOAD_ICONTHEMES ClientMessage event on
this window. Since this window was not explicitly created by spicec, it
does not have a Window Context (with the event handling function for the
window in question) set. This would cause spicec to throw an unhandled
exception and exit.
This patch replaces the exception throwing with silently ignoring
ClientMessage events on Windows without a Context and logging a warning
for other event types.
Currently modifier keys (ctrl, alt) can get stuck when using the x11 client.
To reproduce under gnome:
-focus the client window without causing it to grab the keyborad (click on
the title bar not the window)
-press crlt + alt + right arrow to switch virtual desktop
-press crlt + alt + left arrow to switch back
-notice ctrl + alt are stuck pressed
What is happening here is:
-We get a focus out event, caused by the hotkey combi key grab, focus event
notify mode == NotifyGrab, and release all keys -> good
-We get another focus out event, as we really loose the focus.
notify mode == NotifyWhileGrabbed, which we ignore as we already lost
focus before
-We get a focus in event, as the focus is returning to us, but we don't
really have the focus yet, as the hotkey combi key grab is still active
(ie ctrl + alt are still pressed).
We now sync the vm's modifier key state with the current X-server state,
telling the vm ctrl + alt are pressed. Note we do this by directly reading
the X-server keyboard status, we are not getting any key press events from the
X-server -> bad
-We get another focus in event, as we really get the focus back,
notify mode == NotifyUngrab. We ignore this one as already have gained the
focus before. If we were to sync the vm modifier state here, all would be
well we would no longer see the modifier keys pressed, or if we would we
would get a release event when they get released (testing has shown both).
The solution here is to ignore the first focus in event, and do the modifier
sync on the second focus in event, or more in general to ignore focus events
where notify mode == NotifyWhileGrabbed.
Currently when compiled with the gui enabled if you specify a host to connect
to on the cmdline the gui flashes by (show_gui gets called, then the connect
handler calls hide_gui as soon as the connection is made).
This patch removes this ugly flashing by of the gui.
Currently we are calling show_info_layer from hide_gui in application.cpp, but
there are 2 cases where this does not happen:
1) When compiled without gui support hide_gui is a complete nop, so we never
show the info layer when compiled without gui support
2) When run with --controller we never show the gui, and hide_gui
checks if there is a gui to hide as the first thing and if not returns
resulting in show_info_layer not being called, and thus the info layer
not showing when launched from the xpi
This patch fixes both by adding a call to show_info_layer from
on_visibility_start note that on_visibility_start also calls hide_gui,
so in some cases show_info_layer may be called twice, this is not a
problem as show_info_layer is protected against this.
We are making all text send over the controller socket utf-8, rather then
having somethings as 8 bit (hostname) and others (title, menu) unicode16,
this patch completes this change by converting the menu handling.
The activex browser plugin is sending unicode16 text, where as the
xpi one is sending utf8 text. After discussing this on irc we've decided
that utf8 is what we want to use. So the client (this patch), and the
activex will be changed to expect resp. send utf8 text as the title.
The socket name used to communicate between the xpi browser plugin and the
spicec was predictable allowing a non priviliged user on the same system
to create the socket before spicec does and thus intercept the messages from
the xpi to the client, including login credentials. This security vulnerability
has been registred with mitre as CVE-2010-2792:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2792
This patch changes the controller code to instead read the socket name
from an environment variable which gets set by the xpi before executing
the spicec, making the socketname private between the client and the xpi.
Note that this means that the controller will only work with an xpi which
has matching changes, the changes are present in the latest version of the
xpi as available as update for / with RHEL-5.5 and RHEL-6.0 .
Now that Application::hide_me actually does what the name suggests
(hide the entire client, ie all client windows), the gui using it to
not show the gui layer leads to the entire client disappearing when
one presses close in the GUI or dismisses a GUI dialog. This patch makes
the GUI code call hide_gui instead of hide_me, fixing this.
There were 2 issues with window management under KDE
1) When an app does its own focus management like we do, kwin expects
an explicit raise for the app to get to the top, so we did have focus,
but would have other windows (partially) covering the client window
-> do a raise after setting focus to ourselves
2) When switching from fullscreen <-> window, we unmap and remap our
window, then set focus to ourselves. kwin thinks this means we're trying
to steal the focus without the user asking for it. This patch makes us
set the _NET_WM_USER_TIME property on our window, this helps kwin's
focus stealing code to see that we are really not stealing the focus,
just responding to a user event.
1) Make the order when starting up in fullscreen mode the same as when
switching from window -> fullscreen:
First set the mode, then make the window fullscreen
2) Change the order when leaving fullscreen mode, first restore the original
monitor mode, then make the window non fullscreen. Changing the monitor
mode in X11 causes the window manager to re-arrange windows, and if this
happens while compiz is busy mapping the window it gets confused and
maps the window with a maxmimized size.
Some window managers will ignore the fullscreen hint, unless WmSizeHints
allow them to resize the window so that they can give it the size of
the roo-window. This fixes fullscreen mode in compiz.
XRRSet* calls wait for a XReply, so add a missing XLockDisplay,
this fixes a hang (due to a race so not always) when switching between
windowed and fullscreen mode.
Currenty, we check the agent caps in RedClient::handle_agent_connected
for VD_AGENT_CAP_DISPLAY_CONFIG and if present send display_config, but at
this time we have not received the caps yet, so remove this.
Also the send_agent_display_config call in on_agent_announce_capabilities
lacks a check for _agent_disp_config_sent, and we send the display config
before announcing that we may do so by sending our own caps, which seems
inpolite.
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.
