Hello Mir developers
I saw an article of running Android as a LXC guest on top of Ubuntu touch in the following site.
https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/porting-new-device/
Here, I have some question with the Mir display server. I hope if you could help me out understand the
details of display server/client relationship with the above example.
In the diagram (see above link), there is a single Mir display server placed in Ubuntu touch side.
And, it looks like Android is working as a Mir client to the display server.
As I know, Surface flinger is acting as a compositor (i.e., display server) in Android side. I'm wondering
how do you manage to work Surface flinger as a Mir client?
And, would it be possible to run 2 display servers (i.e., Surface flinger and Mir) within LXC but giving
different virtual terminals to each other? (Are there some possibilities of mess-up in GPU context switches
in between display servers?)
If the question is not proper on this mailing list, could you let me know the pointers that I can these sort of questions?
Thanks,
Jaeyong
