Hi Richard, just wanted to point out something that looks fishy in my patches:

https://github.com/tomeuv/userland/blob/wayland/interface/khronos/ext/egl_wayland.c#L62

As you can see WL_DISPMANX_FORMAT_ABGR8888 and VC_IMAGE_RGBA32 have
different pixel layouts, at least from the contant names.

I don't know what's the correct conversion as there's no public
documentation about the VideoCore side of things, and common sense is
quite limited there.

Maybe that's wrong and you could submit a patch to my github branch in
case you find a fix? The engineer that Broadcom has assigned to help
RPi reads those.

Thanks,

Tomeu
