Previous implementation of both functions was blocking and caused guest freezes / crashes on host clipboard owner change. * use callbacks instead of waiting for GTK to deliver clipboard content type evaluation and contents * evaluate a serial in the info struct to discard old events Fixes: d11ebe2ca257 ("ui/gtk: add clipboard support") Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1150 Signed-off-by: Edmund Raile <edmund.raile@proton.me> --- Gitlab user kolAflash is to credit for determining that the main issue of the QEMU-UI-GTK clipboard is the call to the blocking function gtk_clipboard_wait_is_text_available in gd_owner_change, causing guests to freeze / crash when GTK takes too long. Marc-André Lureau suggested: * gd_clipboard_request might express the same issue due to using gtk_clipboard_wait_for_text * the callbacks could use the QemuClipboardInfo struct's serial field to discard old events * storing the serial for the owner change callback inside the GtkDisplay struct This patch implements asynchronous gd_clipboard_request and gd_owner_change with serial checking. What I haven't implemented is gd_clipboard_notify's QEMU_CLIPBOARD_RESET_SERIAL handling, I don't know how to. Please help me test this patch. The issue mentions the conditions, so far it has been stable. Note that you will need to build QEMU with `enable-gtk-clipboard`. command line options for qemu-vdagent: -device virtio-serial,packed=on,ioeventfd=on \ -device virtserialport,name=com.redhat.spice.0,chardev=vdagent0 \ -chardev qemu-vdagent,id=vdagent0,name=vdagent,clipboard=on,mouse=off \ The guests spice-vdagent user service may have to be started manually. If testing is sufficient and shows no way to break this, we could undo or modify 29e0bfffab87d89c65c0890607e203b1579590a3 to have the GTK UI's clipboard built-in by default again.
