            Bug ID: 470011
           Summary: Wayland always tear option.
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: szucsilikes00 at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

While the wayland tearing protocol gets fully implemented (vulkan drivers and
xwayland) it would be great to have a option to disable or partially disable
tearing system wide
1. it can be made so only get vsynced if the app's or game's is above a certain
fps threshold, so if the game would run 1000 fps but the threshold is set to
300 fps then it would go through mailbox (wayland's vsync).
2. white/black list, so only stuff that are in the whitelist will have mailbox
turned off, if a something is in the blacklist it will always go through
mailbox.
3. option to change the fps limit before mailboxing it, so if I have a monitor
with 60Hz and I want the lowest possible but don't want apps that could run
10000 fps (I don't know if it's actually possible or not) that could drag
performance or simply run the pc more than it should. Default value should be
the display's refresh rate or double the of the display's refresh rate.
4. combination of the 2. and 3. so you could change the the threshold per app
basis.
