Status update... GL Support: DONE: Verified LLVMpipe supports Mir's default GL renderer (see bug 1576032)
Client buffers: DONE: We have separated ShmBuffer into generic code so all graphics drivers can use it. TODO: Add support for rendering GL from LLVMpipe to ShmBuffers instead of GBM (see bug 1576032) Server display buffers: TODO: Add support for rendering GL from LLVMpipe to DRM dumb buffers (see bug 1575516), or something fb-ish. Mode setting: Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Mesa dropped support for fbdev last year [1]. Meanwhile, its likely replacement has fallen silent and nothing has landed [2].
