Hello Abhijit
I saw the topic "Wayland on Embedded" in wayland-devel mailing list.
I'm interested in this topic too. But, I'm naive in this topic now.
So, I write a mail to you to see whether you could give me some
hints or not?
Now, I'm going to port the wayland onto freescale iMX6 board. It
supports Linux/WinCE/Android OS. I want to use the Linux OS
"without" DRM support. So, it going to be difficult to use the
compositor-drm.
But, freescale offers the GLES2 implementation. So, I wonder I might
need the same GLES2 >> framebuffer back-end.
Freescale iMX6 driver releases do show that they now support drm in
their kernel. You may want to try that.
But as such writing a GLES2 over FB backend will work, but with
restricted features as listed in the
below mail chain. With much of the work now abstracted by gles2-renderer
(gl-renderer as its called now) , it must be simple enough to write the
back-end.
Thanks for your information. I would confirm with Freescale.
Could you give me some help?
Anything is welcome.
This will be of some help

I've checked this mail chain. The "restricted features" you mentioned is
I won't able to run GL client by using GLES2 over FB backend, right? But
since iMX6 has the DRM support, using DRM backend may be easier.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards
Henius Dong
