+      The global interface exposing sub-surface compositing capabilities.
+      A wl_surface, that has sub-surfaces associated, is called the
+      parent surface. Sub-surfaces can be arbitrarily nested and create
+      a tree of sub-surfaces.
+
+      The root surface in a tree of sub-surfaces is the main
+      surface. The main surface cannot be a sub-surface, because
+      sub-surfaces must always have a parent.
+
+      A main surface with its sub-surfaces forms a (compound) window.
+      For window management purposes, this set of wl_surface objects is
+      to be considered as a single window, and it should also behave as
+      such.
+
+      The aim of sub-surfaces is to offload some of the compositing work
+      within a window from clients to the compositor. A prime example is
+      a video player with decorations and video in separate wl_surface
+      objects. This should allow the compositor to pass YUV video buffer
+      processing to dedicated overlay hardware when possible.

+    <description summary="sub-surface interface to a wl_surface">
+      An additional interface to a wl_surface object, which has been
+      made a sub-surface. A sub-surface has one parent surface. A
+      sub-surface's size and position are not limited to that of the parent.
+      Particularly, a sub-surface is not automatically clipped to its
+      parent's area.
+
+      A sub-surface becomes mapped, when a non-NULL wl_buffer is applied
+      and the parent surface is mapped. The order of which one happens
+      first is irrelevant. A sub-surface is hidden if the parent becomes
+      hidden, or if a NULL wl_buffer is applied. These rules apply
+      recursively through the tree of surfaces.
+
+      The behaviour of wl_surface.commit request on a sub-surface
+      depends on the sub-surface's mode. The possible modes are
+      synchronized and desynchronized, see methods
+      wl_subsurface.set_sync and wl_subsurface.set_desync. Synchronized
+      mode caches the wl_surface state to be applied when the parent's
+      state gets applied, and desynchronized mode applies the pending
+      wl_surface state directly. A sub-surface is initially in the
+      synchronized mode.
+
+      Sub-surfaces have also other kind of state, which is managed by
+      wl_subsurface requests, as opposed to wl_surface requests. This
+      state includes the sub-surface position relative to the parent
+      surface (wl_subsurface.set_position), and the stacking order of
+      the parent and its sub-surfaces (wl_subsurface.place_above and
+      .place_below). This state is applied when the parent surface's
+      wl_surface state is applied, regardless of the sub-surface's mode.
+      As the exception, set_sync and set_desync are effective immediately.
+
+      The main surface can be thought to be always in desynchronized mode,
+      since it does not have a parent in the sub-surfaces sense.
+
+      Even if a sub-surface is in desynchronized mode, it will behave as
+      in synchronized mode, if its parent surface behaves as in
+      synchronized mode. This rule is applied recursively throughout the
+      tree of surfaces. This means, that one can set a sub-surface into
+      synchronized mode, and then assume that all its child and grand-child
+      sub-surfaces are synchronized, too, without explicitly setting them.
+
+      If the wl_surface associated with the wl_subsurface is destroyed, the
+      wl_subsurface object becomes inert. Note, that destroying either object
+      takes effect immediately. If you need to synchronize the removal
+      of a sub-surface to the parent surface update, unmap the sub-surface
+      first by attaching a NULL wl_buffer, update parent, and then destroy
+      the sub-surface.
+
+      If the parent wl_surface object is destroyed, the sub-surface is
+      unmapped.

+       to the parent is deleted, and the wl_surface loses its role as

+       Change the commit behaviour of the sub-surface to synchronized
+       mode, also described as the parent dependant mode.
+
+       In synchronized mode, wl_surface.commit on a sub-surface will
+       accumulate the committed state in a cache, but the state will
+       not be applied and hence will not change the compositor output.
+       The cached state is applied to the sub-surface immediately after
+       the parent surface's state is applied. This ensures atomic
+       updates of the parent and all its synchronized sub-surfaces.
+       Applying the cached state will invalidate the cache, so further
+       parent surface commits do not (re-)apply old state.
+
+       See wl_subsurface for the recursive effect of this mode.

+      <description summary="set sub-surface to desynchronized mode">
+       Change the commit behaviour of the sub-surface to desynchronized
+       mode, also described as independent or freely running mode.
+
+       In desynchronized mode, wl_surface.commit on a sub-surface will
+       apply the pending state directly, without caching, as happens
+       normally with a wl_surface. Calling wl_surface.commit on the
+       parent surface has no effect on the sub-surface's wl_surface
+       state. This mode allows a sub-surface to be updated on its own.
+
+       If cached state exists when wl_surface.commit is called in
+       desynchronized mode, the pending state is added to the cached
+       state, and applied as whole. This invalidates the cache.
+
+       Note: even if a sub-surface is set to desynchronized, a parent
+       sub-surface may override it to behave as synchronized. For details,
+       see wl_subsurface.
+
+       If a surface's parent surface behaves as desynchronized, then
+       the cached state is applied on set_desync.
