Martin Flöser bedd85821f [platforms/virtual] Add support for EGL_MESA_platform_surfaceless

Summary:
Thus we don't require vgem any more which fails with latest mesa.
Kepping the vgem variant as fallback for older systems. See T10245

Test Plan:
SceneOpenGL Test passes without init vgem, not tested with
latest mesa

Raw Blame History

Testing in KWin

KWin provides a unit and integration test suit for X11 and Wayland. The source code for the tests can be found in the subdirectory autotests. The test suite should be run prior to any merge to KWin.

Dependencies

The following additional software needs to be installed for running the test suite:

Xvfb
Xephyr
glxgears
DMZ-white cursor theme
breeze window decoration

Preparing a run of the test suite

In case your system does not support the EGL extension EGL_MESA_platform_surfaceless, please load the kernel module "vgem". This is required to provide a virtual OpenGL device.

sudo modprobe vgem

Furthermore the user executing the test suite must be able to read and write to the dri device created by vgem.

Running the test suite

The test suite can be run from the build directory. Best is to do:

cd path/to/build/directory
xvfb-run ctest

Running individual tests

All tests executables are created in the directory "bin" in the build directory. Each test can be executed by just starting it from within the test directory. To prevent side effects with the running session it is recommended to start a dedicated dbus session:

cd path/to/build/directory/bin
dbus-run-session ./testFoo

For tests relying on X11 one should also either start a dedicated Xvfb and export DISPLAY or use xvfb-run as described above.
