XkbVirtualModsToReal - Determines the mapping of virtual modifiers to core X protocol modifiers

xkb    keyboard description for input device

       virtual_mask
              virtual modifier mask to translate

       mask_rtrn
              backfilled with real modifiers

       Xkb maintains a virtualmodifiermapping, which lists the virtual modifiers associated with, or bound to,
       each key. The real modifiers bound to a virtual modifier always include all of the modifiers bound to any
       of  the  keys  that  specify  that virtual modifier in their virtual modifier mapping. The server.vmodmap
       array indicates which virtual modifiers are bound to each key; each entry is a bitmask  for  the  virtual
       modifier bits. The server.vmodmap array is indexed by keycode.

       The  vmodmap  and  vmods  members  of  the  server map are the "master" virtual modifier definitions. Xkb
       automatically propagates any changes to these fields to  all  other  fields  that  use  virtual  modifier
       mappings.

       For  example, if Mod3 is bound to the Num_Lock key by the core protocol modifier mapping, and the NumLock
       virtual modifier is bound to they Num_Lock key by the virtual modifier mapping, Mod3 is added to the  set
       of modifiers associated with NumLock.

       The  virtual  modifier  mapping is normally updated whenever actions are automatically applied to symbols
       and few applications should need to change the virtual modifier mapping explicitly.

       Use XkbGetMap to get the virtual modifiers from the server or use XkbGetVirtualMods  to  update  a  local
       copy  of  the  virtual  modifiers bindings from the server. To set the binding of a virtual modifier to a
       real modifier, use XkbGetVirtualMods

       If the keyboard description defined by xkb includes bindings for virtual modifiers,  XkbVirtualModsToReal
       uses  those  bindings  to  determine  the  set  of  real  modifiers that correspond to the set of virtual
       modifiers specified in virtual_mask.  The  virtual_mask  parameter  is  a  mask  specifying  the  virtual
       modifiers  to  translate;  the i-th bit (0 relative) of the mask represents the i-th virtual modifier. If
       mask_rtrn is non-NULL, XkbVirtualModsToReal backfills it with the resulting real modifier  mask.  If  the
       keyboard  description  in  xkb  does  not include virtual modifier bindings, XkbVirtualModsToReal returns
       False; otherwise, it returns True.

       It is possible for a local (client-side) keyboard description (the xkb  parameter)  to  not  contain  any
       virtual  modifier  information  (simply  because  the  client  has  not  requested it) while the server's
       corresponding definition may contain virtual modifier information.

       True           The XkbVirtualModsToReal function returns True if the keyboard  description  in  xkb  does
                      include virtual modifier bindings.

       False          The  XkbVirtualModsToReal  function  returns False if the keyboard description in xkb does
                      not include virtual modifier bindings.
