The description of the SDL_RenderClear function in the SDL_render.h header says the following:
"This function clears the entire rendering target, ignoring the viewport."
The word "entire" implies that the clipping rectangle set with SDL_RenderSetClipRect also gets ignored. This is left somewhat ambiguous if only the viewport is mentioned. Minor thing, but let's see what the implementations actually do.
The software renderer ignores the clipping rectangle when clearing. It even has a comment on this: /* By definition the clear ignores the clip rect */
Most other render drivers (opengl, opengles, opengles2, direct3d, and psp [I assume. Can't test it.]) use the scissor test for the ClipRect and don't disable it when clearing. Clearing will only happen within the clipping rectangle for these drivers.
An exception is direct3d11 which uses a clear function that ignores the scissor test.

When updating the viewport in GLES_UpdateViewport, the OpenGL ES renderer doesn't flip the projection matrix for target textures. The lines, rectangles and textures (if drawn with glDrawArrays) are upside down when drawing to target textures.
Simon Hug
The OpenGL ES 2 renderer does not check the target texture format when using SDL_RenderReadPixels and just always uses ABGR8888. This can result in swapped or wrong colors.
The attached patch adds a check and selects the target texture format, if a texture is set as the target.
Simon Hug
All OpenGL renderers always flip the rows of the pixels that come from glReadPixels. This is unnecessary for target textures since these are already top down.
Also, the rect->y value can be used directly for target textures for the same reason. I don't see any code that would handle the logical render size for target textures. Or am I missing something?
The attached patch makes the renderers only the flip rows if the data comes from the default framebuffer.

The GL_SetBlendMode and GLES_SetBlendMode functions of the opengl and opengles renderers call the glTexEnvf to set the texture env mode to either GL_MODULATE (the default) or GL_REPLACE for the NONE blend mode. Using GL_REPLACE disables color and alpha modulation for textures.
These glTexEnv calls were put in the SetBlendMode function back in 2006 [1], but there the NONE code still used the GL_DECAL mode. The GL_REPLACE mode came in 2008 [2]. I'm a bit confused why that wasn't always GL_MODULATE and a bit surprised nobody reported that yet (unless I missed it). I guess only a few use the gles renderer and the newish shaders mask the issue.

The GL_CreateTexture function doesn't have any checks for the case where the driver doesn't support the framebuffer object extension. It will call into GL_GetFBO which will call the non-existent glGenFramebuffersEXT.
Also, for some reason GL_CreateContext always sets the SDL_RENDERER_TARGETTEXTURE info flag, even if it is not supported. Changeset cc226dce7536 [1] makes this change, but doesn't explain why. It seems to me like the code would already have taken care of this [2].
The attached patch adds some checks and stops SDL from reporting render target support if there is none. The application can then properly inform the user instead of just crashing.

It seems not everyone implemented glDrawTexfOES the same. Intel and Mesa ignore the viewport entirely, whereas the Raspberry Pi implementation offsets the coordinates and does viewport clipping.
The glDrawTexfOES extension text [1] for the function says "Xs and Ys are given directly in window (viewport) coordinates." I guess this wasn't clear enough.

Honestly I'd probably remove that codepath from SDL_Render entirely. It's an OpenGL ES 1-specific extension that isn't likely to give huge performance gains and adds additional maintenance overhead to SDL_Render while also having bugs in some drivers (as seen here).

There are already patches available from mingw64 that fix the issue
https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-SDL2
With those applied, I could compile SDL2 without problems. But of course, it would be preferable if SDL built cleanly from source.
The Apple TV remote is currently exposed as a joystick with its touch surface treated as two axes. Key presses are also generated when its buttons and touch surface are used.
A new hint has been added to help deal with deciding whether to background the app when the remote's menu button is pressed: SDL_HINT_APPLE_TV_CONTROLLER_UI_EVENTS.

When setting a texture alpha mod other than 255 and also specifying a flip mode in the software renderer, the rendering fails. When the texture has an alpha channel, it becomes invisible when flipped. When the texture does not have an alpha channel, it is flipped but the colors are wrong: the alpha mod makes the texture darker rather than more translucent.
0) Initialize a software renderer.
1) Load 16-bit 565 or 32-bit texture.
2) Set texture blend mode to BLEND.
3) Set texture alpha mod to 150.
4) Draw the texture flipped horizontally and/or vertically.

There are three problems in the code that I see.
1. SW_RenderCopyEx enables a color key on surface_scaled even if the source surface didn't have a color key.
2. SW_RenderCopyEx doesn't copy blend mode, color mod, or alpha mod from src to surface_scaled.
3. When SDL_BlitScaled(src, srcrect, surface_scaled, &tmp_rect) is called, it blends the src pixels into surface_scaled instead of overwriting them (if src has blending, etc. enabled).
I've attached a patch that 1) fixes the three problems that I mentioned, 2) adds the requested performance improvement of using the regular blit function if no rotation or flipping is needed, 3) avoids cloning the source surface if no stretching is required, and simplifies the rotation code slightly.

My build system still shows warning as errors.
The first warning says that the member named instances can never be false (or NULL) as it is a static array, and we should check for instances[index] which we do anyway.

I have debugged the code checking the function calls when Direct3D is the renderer, remember that with software and OpenGL renderers, this issue is not happening.
- Create the texture:
SDL_Texture *pTex = SDL_CreateTexture(pRenderer, iFormat, SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_TARGET, pSurf->w, pSurf->h);
- Update the texture:
SDL_UpdateTexture(pTex, NULL, pSurf->pixels, pSurf->pitch);
SDL_render.c, SDL_UpdateTexture(): return renderer->UpdateTexture(renderer, texture, rect, pixels, pitch);
SDL_render_d3d.c, D3D_UpdateTexture(): if (D3D_UpdateTextureRep(data->device, &texturedata->texture, texture->format, rect->x, rect->y, rect->w, rect->h, pixels, pitch) < 0) {
SDL_render_d3d.c, D3D_UpdateTextureRep(): if (D3D_CreateStagingTexture(device, texture) < 0) {
SDL_render_d3d.c, D3D_CreateStagingTexture(): result = IDirect3DDevice9_CreateTexture(..., D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM, ...) --> FAIL! with INVALIDCALL code
After checking a bit the Microsoft documentation, I found this:
D3DUSAGE_RENDERTARGET can only be used with D3DPOOL_DEFAULT. (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb172625%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
The call that fails, is using D3DUSAGE_RENDERTARGET with D3DPOOL_SYSTEMMEM which is unsupported, hence the INVALIDCALL return code.

I have two windows where one has a renderer where the logical size has been changed with SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize. When I get SDL_MOUSEMOTION events belonging to the non-scaled window these will have been scaled with the factor of the scaled window, which is not expected.
Adding some printf debugging to SDL_RendererEventWatch of SDL_render.c, where (event->type == SDL_MOUSEMOTION), I found that for every mouse motion SDL_RendererEventWatch is called twice and the event->motion.x and event.motion.y are set twice for the event, once for each renderer where only the last one set will be saved to the event struct. This will work fine if both renderers have the same scale, but otherwise the motion coordinates will be scaled for the renderer belonging to another window than the mouse was moved in.
I guess one solution would be to check that window == renderer->window for SDL_MOUSEMOTION events, similar to what is done for when SDL_WINDOWEVENT events.
I get the same error on both X11 and Windows.
The same problem also exists for SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN and SDL_MOUSEBUTTONUP events.
"UWP" appears to be Microsoft's new name for WinRT/Windows-Store APIs.
This set of changes updates SDL's WinRT backends to support the Win10 flavor
of WinRT. It has been tested on Win10 on a desktop. In theory, it should
also support Win10 on other devices (phone, Xbox One, etc.), however further
patches may be necessary.
This adds:
- a set of MSVC 2015 project files, for use in creating UWP apps
- modifications to various pieces of SDL, in order to compile via MSVC 2015 +
the Win10 API set
- enables SDL_Window resizing and programmatic-fullscreen toggling, when using
the WinRT backend
- WinRT README updates
This change-set fixes a lot of windowing related bugs, especially with
regards to Windows 8.x apps running on Windows 10 (which was the driver for
this work). The primary fixes include:
* listed display modes were wrong, especially when launching apps into a
non-fullscreen space
* reported window flags were often wrong, especially on Windows 10
* fullscreen/windowed mode switches weren't failing (they are not
programmatically possible in Win 8.x apps).
The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly
uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to
use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful
because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash
in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was
dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
Windows Phone does not appear to allow VSync to be turned off. Doing so appears
to either result in content not getting drawn (when the D3D debug runtime is
turned off), or forcing VSync back on and logging an error (when the D3D debug
runtime is turned on).
VSync had been getting turned on anyways, this change just notes such:
- via the WinRT README
- by always setting the SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC flag when creating an
SDL_Renderer on Windows Phone

The configure script didn't differentiate between Linux and Android, unconditionally compiling in the unix implementation of SDL_sysfilesystem.c.
I'm probably one of the very few people building SDL for android using classic configure + standalone toolchain, so this has gone undetected all along.
With this commit, you can compile SDL2 with Emscripten
( http://emscripten.org/ ), and make your SDL-based C/C++ program
into a web app.
This port was due to the efforts of several people, including: Charlie Birks,
Sathyanarayanan Gunasekaran, Jukka Jyl?nki, Alon Zakai, Edward Rudd,
Bruce Mitchener, and Martin Gerhardy. (Thanks, everyone!)
The expected use case is for games that are designed with multiple aspect ratios already in mind and leave optional margins on the edges of the game which won't hurt if they are cut off.
An example use case is a game is designed for wide-screen/16:9, but then wants to deploy on an iPad which is 4:3. Normally, SDL will letterbox, which will shrink things and result in wasted space. But the designer already thought about 4:3 and designed the edges of the game so they could be cut off without any functional loss. So rather than wasting space with letterboxing, "overscan" mode will zoom the rendering to fill up the entire screen. Parts on the edges will be drawn offscreen, but since the game was already designed with this in mind, it is fine. The end result is the iPad (4:3) experience is much better since it feels like a game designed for that screen aspect ratio.
This patch introduces a new SDL_hint: SDL_HINT_RENDER_LOGICAL_SIZE_MODE.
Valid values are "letterbox" or "0" for letterboxing and "overscan" or "1" for overscan.
The default mode is letterbox to preserve existing behavior.
// Example usage:
SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_RENDER_LOGICAL_SIZE_MODE, "overscan");
SDL_RenderSetLogicalSize(renderer, SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT);
WinRT apps can set a default, preferred orientation via a .appxmanifest file.
SDL was overriding this on app startup, and making the app use all possible
orientations (landscape and portrait).
Thanks to Eric Wing for the heads up on this!
Attributes on the host device's rotation were getting applied to offscreen
textures in an invalid manner. This was causing some apps to look different,
depending on how the device was rotated.
since the window system doesn't do it for us like other platforms.
This prevents sticky keys and missed keys when going in and out
of focus, for example Alt would appear to stick if switching away
from an SDL app with Alt-Tab and had to be pressed again.
CR: Sam
An existing hint lets apps that don't need the timer resolution changed avoid
this, to save battery, etc, but this fixes several problems in timing, audio
callbacks not firing fast enough, etc.
Fixes Bugzilla #2944.
