Current Status

In poky-contrib:ross/wayland:

  • Wayland protocol
  • If "wayland" distro feature, Mesa builds the wayland-egl platform
  • Weston compositor. If wayland disto feature, build with KMS. If x11 distro feature, builds with X11.

To run Weston inside X11, simply adding weston to the image will be sufficient. Under Sato there will be a Weston launcher in the Utility category.

Adding the "wayland" distribution feature will enable Wayland on bare metal. Currently there are no init scripts or images to do this automatically.

Plan

  • Merge into master
  • Image that boots Weston on KMS
  • Enable GTK+ 3 Wayland support
  • Enable Qt Wayland support
