1689464 - Add EGL support to the graphics blocklist

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, task, P3)

Description

[Andrew Osmond [:aosmond] (he/him)]

As we saw with some NVIDIA users, we probably want/need the ability to block EGL for some users based on hardware/drivers/etc. It will also be useful to rollout to a subset of users in various channels.

I'd love to go forward here - Andrew, will you have time for this soon? If not, should I try to prepare something?

I'd go with something like:

• in the following cases only if glxtest reported working EGL
• on Xwayland, as we can expect working EGL there. Also turn on Webrender were we already support it on X11/Wayland.
• on Intel/AMD mesa on X11, matching our WR release allowlist
