It duplicates what st/dri does and it also duplicates what the common loader egl_dri2 does, which is used by all classic drivers and even works better with gallium drivers. Let's compare EGL extensions for both backends: st/egl: EGL version string: 1.4 (Gallium) EGL client APIs: OpenGL OpenGL_ES OpenGL_ES2 OpenVG EGL extensions string: EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display EGL_KHR_image_base EGL_KHR_image_pixmap EGL_KHR_image EGL_KHR_reusable_sync EGL_KHR_fence_sync EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context EGL_NOK_swap_region EGL_NV_post_sub_buffer egl_dri2: EGL version string: 1.4 (DRI2) EGL client APIs: OpenGL OpenGL_ES OpenGL_ES2 OpenGL_ES3 EGL extensions string: EGL_MESA_drm_image EGL_MESA_configless_context EGL_KHR_image_base EGL_KHR_image_pixmap EGL_KHR_image EGL_KHR_gl_texture_2D_image EGL_KHR_gl_texture_cubemap_image EGL_KHR_gl_renderbuffer_image EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context EGL_KHR_create_context EGL_NOK_swap_region EGL_NOK_texture_from_pixmap EGL_CHROMIUM_sync_control EGL_EXT_image_dma_buf_import EGL_NV_post_sub_buffer egl_dri2 also supports MSAA on the window framebuffer (through st/dri). It's really obvious which one is better. I'm aware of 2 features that we will lose: - swrast on Wayland - I'm not sure about this. Perhaps kms-swrast has addressed this already. - OpenVG - It has never taken off. If people want this on Linux, it should use egl_dri2 and st/dri, like OpenGL does. This series removes st/egl and st/gbm support from the autoconf build (the latter depends on the former and is probably just as redundant). The next step is to remove all Linux-specific backends from st/egl. Windows, Android, and other platform backends will be kept intact, therefore st/egl won't be removed completely. Please comment. Thanks, Marek
