Fixes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/577
This patch replaces the instances of trunc in miPointerSetPosition by
floor, thereby removing the incorrect behaviour with subpixel pointer
locations between -1 and 0.
This is the relevant code fragment:
/* In the event we actually change screen or we get confined, we just
* drop the float component on the floor
* FIXME: only drop remainder for ConstrainCursorHarder, not for screen
* crossings */
if (x != trunc(*screenx))
*screenx = x;
if (y != trunc(*screeny))
*screeny = y;
The behaviour of this code does not match its comment for subpixel
coordinates between -1 and 0. For example, if *screenx is -0.5, the
preceding code would (correctly) clamp x to 0, but this would not be
detected by this condition, since 0 == trunc(-0.5), leaving *screenx
at -0.5, out of bounds.
This causes undesirable behaviour in GTK3 code using xi2, where negative
subpixel coordinates like this would (to all appearances randomly)
remove the focus from windows aligned with the zero boundary when the
mouse hits the left or top screen boundaries.
The other occurences of trunc in miPointerSetPosition have a more subtle
effect which would prevent proper clamping if there is a pointer limit
at a negative integer rather than at 0. This patch changes these to
floor for consistency.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders.
