Hi Ulf,
See my comments below. Varun team can help on MALI libraries and
performance questions with respect to wayland or x11.

Hi,
New to this list,so this is my first post.
We are trying to run Weston/Wayland-9 on an Ultrascale with Petalinux
rev2022.1.
Initially we had problems getting Weston running at all, and tried
building an x11 image. We got the Weston to work with the
fbdev-backend, but performance is abyssmal compared to x11 and we
suspect that the drm-backend is the proper one. This crashes however.
$ sudo -E weston-launch -t /dev/tty7 -u <user> # We do not use 'root'.
[Sandeep]: This is expected in 2022.x Yocto or PetaLinux release but we
can investigate on how fix this running as non-root user.

When I tested with fpdev-backend I can get weston to start. If I
disable libmali, it will not start.
The libmali is built for wayland, but since all four versions are
included in the rootfs, I have tried all four, using
update-alternatives without any noticeable performance difference.
Googling today, I found that 'libdbus-1', not having a depency on
systemd-login may cause the first error since then it is built without
systemd-login support.
While X11 runs faster, it is also on a minimal system without systemd,
dbus, udev and other niceties.
Now for some questions:
* Should it be possible to run the drm-backend with Ultrascale?
* Is there a good weston.ini example with drm-backend.so
* Will it have higher performance than the fbdev-backend?
* Is it a problem, not running as 'root'?
* I am running a fullHD screen. Could this be too large? We have 4GB
memory in the system.
* Can you determine how much memory weston can use? How?
