Hi all,
I'm working for Linaro on enabling a zero copy path in GStreamer by using dmabuf. To make this possible I have patched gst wayland sink to use wayland drm protocol: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711155
Today wayland drm protocol is limited to Mesa so I have decided to move it into wayland-core. My hardware doesn't have gpu support yet so I have patched weston (pixman) to allow usage of wl_drm buffers. With this I able to share/use a buffer allocated by DRM in gstreamer pipeline even if I don't have gpu and EGL.
What do you think about make wayland drm protocol available like this ?
Please note those patches are for wayland/weston 1.1.0
Regards, Benjamin
