Status of GPU offloading on Wayland
- Track: Graphics devroom

- Day: Saturday
- Start: 18:00
- End: 18:50
This talk will be about the principles of GPU offloading, how it is handled with X DRI2, and how we decided to handle it on Wayland.
It's been about 3-4 years since first experiments on GPU offloading on X were done. How is GPU offloading handled with X ? And how the different design of Wayland could influence the way it's handled ?
In this talk, I'll present:
- the technical difficulties involved in GPU offloading.
- how X DRI2 handles GPU offloading.
- What choices we made when designing Wayland GPU offloading support.
- The work that has been done, and what is remaining to do for a better user experience.
