If you have a problem during any system update with mutter-performance & gnome-shell-performance, please install mutter & gnome-shell packages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.

If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use mutter-performance-unstable

The default patch list includes "Dynamic triple buffering(!1441)", "text-input-v1(!3751)".

Latest Dynamic triple buffering patch has several included MRs from the main development branch to achieve maximum performance.

To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)

You can see some patches' git history here: https://git.saltyming.net/sungmg/mutter-performance-source/

If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.

The optional performance patches are by default enabled.

It does not build for me even when starting from a fresh snapshot:

Program catchsegv found: NO

mutter-performance/meson.build:308:2: ERROR: Program 'catchsegv' not found or not executable

@adryd @ewout I did the same way of what the original mutter package did. Doesn't it build now?

ewout commented on 2022-02-16 20:02 (UTC)

Please include MR 2294 to work around catchsegv no longer being packaged by glibc.

adryd commented on 2022-02-16 09:48 (UTC)

You'll need to remove the catchsegv meson dependency, this won't build anymore. mutter-git has a patch already

@JordanViknar I also made !2265 here, which is a diff for the package repo itself: https://gist.github.com/FiestaLake/a5ed51c1595bb0ca5427d75a8e3fba34

@Saren can you test this too?

Saren commented on 2022-02-14 05:51 (UTC) (edited on 2022-02-14 05:59 (UTC) by Saren)

@JordanViknar

I have tested adding !2265 with mr1441.patch unchanged. I am dropped to X11 only.

!1441 seems to be synced to mutter 42 now, backport to 41 is unlikely trivial.

mr2265.patch that builds: https://gist.github.com/Saren-Arterius/1ee7486acda25134836501c117defde6

I think the !1441 patch included in this package should be updated. According to a comment in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1441#note_1265504,MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0 will no longer be necessary to prevent the Wayland Multi-display freezing issue, thanks to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2265. This has been an issue some of us have been encountering in the past before I reposted the workaround here. Problem is that, since this was a workaround, it had to be manually done by the user and technically didn't fix the problem. Plus, I suspect that this workaround had a negative impact on performance, ironically.

@afader Does commit 0cb76e589752 build fine there? i really can't test wayland.

afader commented on 2022-01-12 20:47 (UTC)

Can't build this package with wayland running but it works fine on Xorg with same options. On linux-hardened
