1674982 - [Wayland] Revert Bug 1668771 (frame callbacks timeout) due to OOM crashes

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P3)

Description

[Martin Stránský [:stransky] (ni? me)]

We need to revert Bug 1668771 (frame callbacks timeout) due to OOM crashes.

Wayland protocol does not include a mechanism how to inform compositor about deleted frame callbacks. We delete the callback only locally on client side and it remains active at server (compositor) side.

When large amount of callbacks is accumulated at server Firefox is closed due to OOM.

Wayland protocol does not include a mechanism how to inform compositor about deleted frame callbacks.
We delete a callback only locally on client side and it remains active at server (compositor) side.

When large amount of callbacks is accumulated at server Firefox is closed due to OOM
so we need to keep frame callback on local side untill is fired and don't create a new one.
