Issue #3049 describes a case where terminating i3 by means of SIGTERM
causes it to leak the runtime directory and all its contents. There are
multiple issues at play: first, any cleanup handlers registered via
atexit are never invoked when a signal terminates the program (see
atexit(3)). Hence, the log SHM log cleanup performed in i3_exit is not
invoked in that case. Second, compared to the shutdown path for the
'exit' command, we do not unlink the UNIX domain socket we create,
causing it to be leaked as well. Third, a handler for SIGTERM is not
registered at all despite handle_signal claiming to be the handler for
all 'Term' signals.
This change addresses all three problems and results in a graceful exit
including cleanup to happen when we receive a signal with the default
action 'Term'. It addresses issue #3049.
In i3bar/src/config.c we compare string lengths agains magic numbers.
This change replaces those numbers with the lengths of the strings they
represent.
The userguide still mentions an old 'goto' command which no longer
exists and will be ignored silently (when used in the i3 config) or
causes an error to be reported (when invoked from the command line).
This change updates the userguide to correct this problem. In addition
to that it also updates the i3-input command shown to no longer use the
deprecated -p flag but -F instead.
Previously, we used ev_check watchers, which are executed at the beginning of an
event loop iteration.
This was problematic if one of the handlers happened to fill the XCB event
queue, e.g. by reading a reply from X11 and an event happened in the meantime.
In that situation, we would hand control to the event loop, entirely ignoring
the pending event. This would manifest itself as a 1-minute hang,
reproducible (sometimes) in the i3 testsuite.
issue #2790 describes an instance of this issue in i3bar, and we fixed that by
changing the watcher priority to run last. Handling events in xcb_prepare_cb has
the same effect, as ev_prepare watchers are run just before the event loop goes
to sleep.
We need to set dont_map => 1 on the sync window to prevent an endless loop.
Further, t/219-ipc-window-focus.t made assumptions about windows being named
incrementally, and that assumption is broken by the sync window opened by the
first sync_with_i3 call from open_window, so use the more reliable ->name.
The sender of the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW client message might know better when to
set focus than i3, as i3 does not know about unmanaged (override_redirect=1)
windows.

1). Add one regression test in 167-workspace_layout.t:
- Get a fresh workspace
- Set the layout to something
- Create windows
- Try to switch to another layout
- Check if successful
- Repeat for all 12 possible transitions
2). Add another regression test in 167-workspace_layout.t:
- Check that the command 'layout toggle split' works regardless of
what layout we're using
stbuf.st_size is of type off_t, which the standard defines as “extended signed
integral type”¹, and for which there is no correct printf format string. Hence,
we need to cast it into a hopefully-large-enough type (ugh) and use the
corresponding format string. In our case, int64_t should do it, as config files
really shouldn’t be anywhere close to those numbers.
