Hello. As part of my course work, I've developed spice backend for Weston (the reference implementation of Wayland compositor). Currently this uses Wayland's pixman-based renderer, and shares rendered frames over spice protocol. With my backend, it is possible to communicate with wayland desktop using spice client. Current implementation is proof-of-concept only. Only shm buffers are supported, and no attempt is made to optimize bandwidth. Performance is expectedly bad. The first goal was just to make it working, and now it works - at least if client and server are on the same physical host. In future, I plan to utilize GL both for rendering and calculating difference between frames. With this approach I hope to get both full-functional desktop and minimize server and bandwidth requirements. My code is available at https://github.com/ein-shved/compositor-spice.git Comments and/or bugfixes are greatly appreciated. P.S. I know that recently RDP backend was added to Weston. I was not aware of that while working on my backend. I hope it will be possible to share effort with that project to build better remote wayland solutions. _______________________________________________ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
