K900 | But the WSI implementation speaks a private protocol to Gamescope itself | 08:27:25 |
K900 | And then Gamescope itself speaks another private protocol to Kwin | 08:27:34 |
K900 | Eventually it'll be one stable protocol | 08:27:44 |
K900 | And the WSI code will just talk directly to whatever compositor | 08:27:58 |
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org | And what is wsi exactly? Obviously it's some kind of vulkan layer thing but what's it for? | 08:29:15 |
K900 | WSI is window system integration | 08:31:01 |
K900 | It's the part that does the OS-specific windowing bits | 08:31:11 |
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Oh, got it | 08:31:42 |
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org | And eventually plasma will carry a wsi implementation? Or will that be mesa's job? Or both? | 08:32:21 |
K900 | Mesa already does that | 08:33:01 |
K900 | It just doesn't support the HDR protocols because they aren't stable yet | 08:33:25 |
