Bug 1738026 [Wayland] Implement EnableRenderingToWindow()/DisableRenderingToWindow() to unify window rendering management, r?emilio
48 bytes, text/x-phabricator-request
Details | Review

When I click on "Help -> About Nightly" in the main menu, (Hardware) WebRender falls back to "WebRender (Software)" (as seen in about:support) and I get the following output in the terminal:

[GFX1-]: window is null
[GFX1-]: Failed to create EGLSurface
[GFX1-]: Fallback WR to SW-WR

This is a recent regression, mozregression gave the following result:

This points to bug 1737068.

Firefox under XWayland is not affected, and I don't see any error in the terminal with gfx.webrender.software enabled.

OS: Arch Linux
Graphics: AMD Caicos with Mesa 21.3.0-rc2 (r600 driver)
Gnome/Mutter 40.5

Side note: Bug 1681107 was similar to this one, but for popups.

Blocks: wr-linux-wayland
Regressed by: 1737068

Just to be sure, is this a Wayland only issue?

Flags: needinfo?(viktor_jaegerskuepper)

Yes, it seems so.

Reproducible with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 mozregression --launch 2021-10-27 -a about:support

(In reply to Martin Stránský [:stransky] (ni? me) from comment #1)

Just to be sure, is this a Wayland only issue?

Yes, I don't observe this neither under X11 nor XWayland (double-checked with default WebRender and with gfx.webrender.software enabled).
