Hi,
Maybe some guiding questions:
- Will dma-buf always require GL support?
Yes.
- Does GL support limit our ability to have a display over a remote
connection?
Currently yes, althrough the plan is to support gl display remotely in
spice. The workflow will be completely different though. Non-gl spice
uses the classic display channel, the plan for gl spice is to feed the
dma-bufs into the gpu's video encoder then send a video stream.
- Do region-based displays also work with GL support, even if not
required?
Yes. Any qemu display device works with gl-enabled UI.
cheers,
Gerd
