Angle-Vulkan support for Wayland?

[Craig Stout]

For Angle-Vulkan on Linux, are there plans to add support for Wayland?

Thanks,

+rjkroege explicitly; I assume the answer is yes, as we're bringing up Chromium's GPU testing on Wayland, but am not sure.

This was on my personal wish list of Things To Do When I Have Time™. Probably the core of the work is trivial, because Vulkan's WSI takes care of most things? Fixing up our test infrastructure would probably be the bulk of the work. It would make it simpler all around probably if we used SDL instead of talking to X directly (which for some reason people still do).

Can't say I could get around to it any time soon.

Just to confirm: Angle-Vulkan is the version of Angle that implements GLES->Vulkan? If so, I think that Chrome Linux on Vulkan should definitely be using that for WebGL instead of doing interop (which I'd expect to be (extra) brittle on Wayland.)

Yes GLES->Vulkan is the Angle I'm asking about.

GLES->Vulkan on Wayland is a configuration the Fuchsia team would like to test for our Linux virtualization effort.  For now I'm using headless Vulkan display in Angle, and testing offscreen only.

How do you use headless vulkan angle, does this work in linxu?

[Craig Stout]

Yes, it's enabled by two GN variables:

• angle_use_vulkan_display - enabled when other window systems are disabled
• angle_vulkan_display_mode - set this to "headless"
