Bug ID: 512969
Summary: Some games wont activate async/tearing
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version First 6.5.3
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have noticed when enabling kwin with debug that some games dont make kwin
switch to async/tearing in fullscreen
These games so far are
Arc Raiders
THE FINALS
Halo Infinite
Minecraft
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Play those games with kwin debug enabled
2. Set adaptive sync to never so it should switch to async in fullscreen games
3. Notice that it doesnt switch to async and stays on vsync even when vsync is
turned off in the graphics or display settings
OBSERVED RESULT
Async doesn't happen and instead stays on vsync which causes input latency,
important for lowest latency for the finals or halo infinite because it is a
fps where frames mean everything in some cases.
EXPECTED RESULT
Async to be applied to those games when adaptive sync is set to never
