Hold workspace handoff until incoming terminals are presentable (#1291) - #10868
lawrencecchen wants to merge 17 commits into
Conversation
A workspace switch hid the old workspace's terminals as soon as the target's surfaces existed, but a freshly mounted workspace reveals its portals one or more main-queue turns later (and a reclaimed renderer draws later still), painting frames with neither workspace's content: the intermittent switch flicker. Handoff readiness now means presented-on-screen, not pointer-exists: the immediate path requires every rendered-visible incoming terminal to be unhidden, in-window, and renderer-presented; otherwise the retiring workspace stays mounted and visible (the existing pin) until each incoming terminal posts its first rendered frame (WorkspaceHandoffFrameWatcher over .ghosttyDidRenderFrame with global frame-notification demand retained), with the existing 150ms timeout as the ceiling. Bonsplit tab switches were already atomic and are untouched.
…ortals renderedVisiblePanelIdsForCurrentLayout returns empty while the target workspace is unmounted (portalRenderingEnabled is false at handoff start), which made the readiness check vacuously true and re-enabled the fastReady blank frame. Enumerate the layout model directly.
Focus reaches the incoming terminal before its first rendered frame on cold switches; completing the handoff then re-exposed the blank frame. Defer focus/first_responder completions while frames are still owed and raise the liveness timeout to 500ms (frame completion is the normal, fast path).
A reveal of unchanged terminal content draws without a state update, so UPDATE_FRAME_END never fires for it; the presentation-repair drain keeps UPDATE_FRAME_END and the handoff notice keys on the draw event.
Renderer instrumentation only fires a handful of times around surface startup on macOS, so an event-based first-frame notice never observes a reveal. The correct readiness signal is synchronous: the hosted view is revealed and the terminal layer holds pixels (contents survive hides for warm surfaces; a reclaimed renderer republishes them on rebuild). Observe portal visibility, isHidden, and layer contents; drop the renderer-event plumbing and the frame plan.
A warm cap of one made every switch past the previous workspace a cold renderer rebuild, which is the slow half of the switch flicker fix: warm surfaces retain their IOSurface and are presentable the instant the portal reveals them. Hidden windows still release everything through window occlusion, and the idle threshold bounds the rest. Planner baseline tests updated to exercise cap+1 surfaces.
The core publishes IOSurface contents off the main thread; the model layer reads nil on main while the presentation copy already holds the pixels (the debug present-stats reader uses the same idiom).
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughWorkspace handoff completion now waits for the first rendered frame from each visible incoming terminal. A 500 ms fallback remains for liveness. Workspace readiness checks support immediate handoff, and the default warm-renderer cap increases from one to four. ChangesWorkspace handoff and renderer readiness
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Workspace switching can still briefly expose a blank terminal frame because one completion path may run before incoming pixels are published.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When switching into a remote-tmux workspace, this skips the stable container but never expands it into the mirror-owned TerminalPanels that actually render the window. The wrapper surface is closed after mirror creation, while hasLoadedTerminalSurface() does expand the container and therefore succeeds as soon as an inner surface exists; visibleTerminalsReadyForImmediateHandoff() then returns true vacuously and the retiring workspace can be hidden before any mirror pane is revealed. Both watch-target collection and immediate readiness need to inspect the visible mirror-owned panes.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When the incoming workspace has a focused browser plus terminals in other visible split panes, this returns true solely because the browser is focused, so the frame watcher is never started for those terminals. A remounted terminal pane can consequently still be blank when the retiring workspace is hidden; the browser shortcut should only bypass terminal readiness when there are no co-visible terminal targets.

During rapid workspace switching, readiness for A→B can reach this line and enqueue its callback, then B→C can begin and cancel/start the watcher before the queued callback executes. Because the closure has already been copied out and carries no workspace or generation check, the stale A→B callback completes the current B→C handoff, cancels its watcher, and hides B before C has pixels. Guard the deferred callback with the watched workspace/request generation or make its cancellation ownership persist through this queue turn.

Size the hidden fixture for the visible warm slot.
The fixture adds one visible surface at Lines [120-123]. The existing visibleSurfaceOccupiesWarmSlotButIsNeverSelected test at Lines [276-295] establishes that the visible surface consumes one warm slot. With a default cap of 4, settings.maxWarmRenderers + 1 creates five hidden eligible surfaces plus the visible surface, so two hidden surfaces are reclaimable. Line [131] expects only one ID and will fail.
If the test should verify one excess hidden renderer, use 0..<settings.maxWarmRenderers and update the comment.
Proposed fixture correction
- // One more hidden idle surface than the default warm cap: the planner
- // keeps the cap's most recent renderers warm (instant, pixel-ready
- // switching between recent workspaces, `#1291`) and reclaims the rest.
- let hidden = (0..<(settings.maxWarmRenderers + 1)).map { offset in
+ // The visible surface consumes one warm slot, so one hidden surface
+ // exceeds the remaining warm capacity for recent-workspace switching.

Gate every handoff completion on actual layer pixels. TerminalSurface.isRendererPresented only means the rebuild transaction was accepted, while .terminalSurfaceDidBecomeReady signals surface creation; neither guarantees that (layer.presentation() ?? layer).contents is populated. The fast path here can therefore expose a blank frame. Use the watcher’s pixel predicate as the final gate for both paths, and retain the bounded recheck fallback unless a renderer-owned first-frame signal is added.

Release the observers in deinit as well.
cancel() is the only cleanup path. If the owner releases the watcher while a handoff is pending, the block-based NotificationCenter registration and the NSKeyValueObservation values stay attached to the hosted views and their layers. The observer block captures self weakly, so the callback becomes a no-op, but the registrations remain.
Add a deinit that removes the observers and invalidates the observations. NotificationCenter.removeObserver(_:) and NSKeyValueObservation.invalidate() are safe from a nonisolated deinit.

What
Switching workspaces intermittently painted one or more frames with neither the old nor the new workspace's terminal content. Bonsplit tab switches never flickered.
Root cause: the workspace handoff hid the retiring workspace's terminals as soon as the target workspace's surfaces merely existed (
hasLoadedTerminalSurface), but a sidebar switch remounts the whole workspace (maxMountedWorkspaces = 1), so the incoming portals reveal one or more main-queue turns later, and a reclaimed renderer republishes pixels later still. Between the hide and the first publish, the window backdrop showed through. Tab switches are immune because they flipisHiddenon both surfaces synchronously in one CATransaction with no remount.How

Fixes #1291: workspace switches intermittently painted frames with neither the old nor the new workspace's terminals, because the handoff hid the retiring workspace as soon as the target's surfaces merely existed. The handoff now holds the retiring workspace mounted and visible until every incoming visible terminal is presentable on screen (unhidden, in a window, holding pixels in its layer).
