2673	Introducing dynamic buffer queue scaling to minimize lag. Introducing dynamic buffer queue scaling to minimize lag. (LP: #1240909) Actually the size of the queue doesn't really change with this branch. What it does do is reliably detect when a client is staying ahead of the compositor and throttle it so that no more than one future frame is ever pre-rendered. Hence you get the same single-frame latency as double buffering. But the moment the client fails to keep up, it will get to use all three buffers again.

2289	Fix dangerous underestimate of buffers_ready_for_compositor(... Fix dangerous underestimate of buffers_ready_for_compositor(). This is an immediate problem when you start experimenting with double buffers, and see occasional random freezes. (LP: #1395581) It could also possibly affect the current triple buffering used for multimonitor and bypass/overlays. Fixes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1395581.

2218	mesa::DisplayBuffer: Schedule page flips in a double buffere... mesa::DisplayBuffer: Schedule page flips in a double buffered pattern instead of triple when it's safe to do so (not clone mode). This noticeably reduces visible lag. (LP: #1350725) Clone mode still needs triple buffering because you can't tell two or more separate monitors to vblank at the same time. You just have to accept that waiting for multiple vblanks will often take an extra frame's time. The more common cases of single or separate outputs however only need to deal with one vsync signal per frame so can be optimized into double buffering. And this feels significantly less laggy when dragging windows around. This is an improvement on the present behaviour introduced in r1380.

2059	Use the standard C99 bool rather than rolling our own. Use the standard C99 bool rather than rolling our own. There's no realistic platform that both has a C++11 compiler and a C compiler incapable of handling stdbool.h.

399	mir_client_library.h: Documentation cleanup mir_client_library.h: Documentation cleanup 1. Make the comments properly C-compatible so that clients written in pure C can build. (LP: #1116104) 2. Fix invalid Doxygen syntax which was generating bad docs (LP: #1116120). Fixes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1116104, https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1116120.
