Proprietary Nvidia (Wayland): eglCreateWindowSurface failed
Migrated from jwilm/alacritty#1269
A segfault occurs when using glutin with the binary Nvidia driver and a Wayland compositor.
Backtrace obtained from rust-gdb from running glutin's window example:
https://gist.github.com/aidanharris/f1fe409c463e79c575242a9edd255ea8
If I force the mesa driver to be used instead of Nvidia's library (env LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libEGL.so cargo run --example window) no segfault occurs and the example runs fine (I assume mesa is doing software rendering but it does work so perhaps this is an issue with the Nvidia driver?).
@kchibisov GNOME (mutter) but I'm not sure it matters. The issue also occurs with KDE's Kwin.
@aidanharris Some wayland compositors don't work with nvidia binary driver, so was ensuring that your compositor supports it.
Can you do the following export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libEGL.so ; glxinfo && eglinfo && glinfo?
glxinfo fails as follows:
name of display: :0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
(this is actually expected because XWayland currently doesn't work properly with Nvidia's driver so any X11 applications using glx won't work at all but egl should work with Wayland applications that don't use X11)

I don't have the glinfo command (I can't seem to find any package providing it either) so I can't test that.
A reboot later and it seems to work fine with Nouveau. The examples run and I know I'm using Nouveau (other than lsmod telling me so) because I managed to cause the Linux kernel to hang which is sadly typical behaviour for Nouveau :(
That's unfortunate. I was hoping this issue would also take place on Nouveau, so that we could rebuild mesa with debug symbols and look into why it was seg faulting.
Since the NVIDIA binary driver does not release it's source, you can't compile it with debug symbols.
Can you use apitrace to trace all the EGL calls w/ the proprietary driver?
Other question: do other programs that use EGL also fail, or is this a glutin only thing?
I can run weston-simple-egl and eglgears_wayland (from mesa-demos).
~~I've installed apitrace but I'm not sure what I need to do to capture a trace. Running apitrace trace --api egl ./target/debug/examples/window produced a .trace file.~~
Scratch that, the trace file is empty so I don't think it worked.
The trace file should not be empty. Just upload it when you make one successfully. Make sure the glutin examples are not panicing.
Same issue here, it prevents alacritty from working under Wayland.
System: GTX 760, nvidia 465.27, wlroots-eglstreams + sway.
I ran apitrace trace --api=egl -o window.egl.trace target/debug/examples/window, here's the gzipped output:
Does that help? Is there anything else I can provide?
Comment in https://github.com/danvd/wlroots-eglstreams/issues/15:
Yes, It's a bug of nvidia blob. There are probably some constraints on egl context.
Remark. eglGetError(), if called just before the subject error is raised, returns the following:
EGL_BAD_NATIVE_WINDOW 0x300B
An EGLNativeWindowType argument does not refer to a valid
native window.
native window is usually created with call to wl_compositor_create_surface followed by wl_egl_window_create.
And looks like the latter returns invalid handle (or maybe this handle becomes invalid when eglCreateWindowSurface is executed)
Same issue here.
(My guess is that more and more peeps will have this issue now that the Nvidia-driver supports hardware accelerated xwayland and more people make the switch to Wayland.)

Yeah the support for Wayland and hardware accleration for Xwayland of Nvidia 470 driver seduced me into switching from nouveau to the proprietary driver. But this issue is really a big problem for me. All apps based on winit can't launch, and we can't build Wayland apps with game engines or GUI libraries which use winit.
I wonder if Nvidia proprietary driver never supports glutin for this issue opened in 2019 is still open today? If so, it's too bad.
All major UI libraries do support 470 driver. Among them: GTK3, SDL2, GLFW, KDE. The issue with winit became more important after termite was obsoleted by alacritty.

In fact winit do support nvidia 470 driver as long as we add a environment variable: WINIT_UNIX_BACKEND=x11, then apps based on winit could run under x11 with nvidia 470 driver. This is a workaround you could try if you just want your apps run with 470 driver. Thus the problem is winit's Wayland backend does not support nvidia 470 driver.
This is fixed by https://github.com/NVIDIA/egl-wayland/commit/2eb4628d64a8297fb4c08aa796fdf33ff54a670f. I tested many examples and they worked well!
