Summary: A toolkit for displaying OpenGL applications to thin clients
VirtualGL is a library which allows most Linux OpenGL applications to be
remotely displayed to a thin client without the need to alter the
applications in any way.  VGL inserts itself into an application at run time
and intercepts a handful of GLX calls, which it reroutes to the server's
display (which presumably has a 3D accelerator attached.)  This causes all
3D rendering to occur on the server's display.  As each frame is rendered
by the server, VirtualGL reads back the pixels from the server's framebuffer
and sends them to the client for re-compositing into the appropriate X
Window.  VirtualGL can be used to give hardware-accelerated 3D capabilities to
VNC or other remote display environments that lack GLX support.  In a LAN
environment, it can also be used with its built-in motion-JPEG video delivery
system to remotely display full-screen 3D applications at 20+ frames/second.

VirtualGL is based upon ideas presented in various academic papers on
this topic, including "A Generic Solution for Hardware-Accelerated Remote
Visualization" (Stegmaier, Magallon, Ertl 2002) and "A Framework for
Interactive Hardware Accelerated Remote 3D-Visualization" (Engel, Sommer,
Ertl 2000.)

Changelog

  - update to 3.0.2:
    1. Support for transparent overlay visuals has been retired in this version of
    VirtualGL.  That feature will continue to be maintained in the 2.6.x branch on
    a break/fix basis only.  Most applications that once used transparent overlay
    visuals used them with color index rendering, which was removed in OpenGL 3.1
    in 2009.  Thus, almost all applications that render overlays now do so using
    other mechanisms.  Furthermore, the need for VirtualGL to hand off the
    rendering of transparent overlay visuals to the 2D X server has always limited
    the usefulness of the feature, and the discontinuation of the VirtualGL Client
    for Exceed relegated the feature to Un*x clients (with workstation-class GPUs)
    and the VGL Transport only.  Given that nVidia's implementation of transparent
    overlay visuals requires disabling the X Composite extension, which cannot be
    done in many modern Linux distributions, that further limited the feature to
    the point of uselessness.
    2. The VirtualGL Faker now assigns various permutations of common OpenGL
    rendering attributes to the available 2D X server visuals.  This maximizes the
    chances that "visual hunting" 3D applications (applications that use X11
    functions to obtain a list of 2D X server visuals, then iterate through the
    list with `glXGetConfig()` until they find a visual with a desired set of
    OpenGL rendering attributes) will find a suitable visual.
    `VGL_DEFAULTFBCONFIG` can still be used to assign a specified set of OpenGL
    rendering attributes to all 2D X server visuals, although the usefulness of
    that feature is now very limited.
    3. The VirtualGL Faker now includes an EGL back end that optionally emulates
    the GLX API using a combination of the EGL API (with the
    `EGL_EXT_platform_device` extension) and OpenGL renderbuffer objects (RBOs.)
    On supported platforms, the EGL back end allows the VirtualGL Faker to be used
    without a 3D X server.  The EGL back end can be activated by setting the
    `VGL_DISPLAY` environment variable to the path of a DRI device, such as
    * */dev/dri/card0**, or by passing that device path to `vglrun` using the `-d`
    argument.  Some obsolete OpenGL and GLX features are not supported by the EGL

  - update to 3.0.2
    * Now supports use of EGL as well as GLX
* Sat Dec 19 2020 Dirk Müller <dmueller@suse.com>
  - update to 2.6.5:
    1. Fixed a race condition that sometimes caused various fatal errors in the
    interposed `glXMakeContextCurrent()` function if both GLX drawable IDs passed
    to that function were the same window handle and the corresponding X window was
    simultaneously resized in another thread.
    2. Fixed an oversight whereby the addresses of the interposed
    `glDrawBuffers()`, `glGetString()`, and `glGetStringi()` functions introduced
    in 2.6.3[2] and 2.6.4[1] were not returned from the interposed
    `glXGetProcAddress()` and `glXGetProcAddressARB()` functions.
    3. VirtualGL now works properly with 3D applications that use the
    `glNamedFramebufferDrawBuffer()` and `glNamedFramebufferDrawBuffers()`
    functions (OpenGL 4.5) or the `glFramebufferDrawBufferEXT()` and
    `glFramebufferDrawBuffersEXT()` functions (`GL_EXT_direct_state_access`) and
    render to the front buffer.
    4. Fixed a BadRequest X11 error that occurred when attempting to use the X11
    Transport with a remote X connection.
    5. Worked around an issue with certain GLX implementations that list
    10-bit-per-component FB configs ahead of 8-bit-per-component FB configs and
    incorrectly set `GLX_DRAWABLE_TYPE|=GLX_PIXMAP_BIT` for those 10-bpc FB
    configs, even though they have no X visuals attached.  This caused VirtualGL's
    interposed `glXChooseVisual()` function to choose one of the 10-bpc FB configs
    behind the scenes, which made it impossible to use the VGL Transport.
    6. Fixed an issue whereby, when using the X11 Transport, a vertically flipped
    image of a previously-rendered frame was sometimes displayed if the 3D
    application called `glFlush()` while the front buffer was the active drawing
    buffer and the render mode was `GL_FEEDBACK` or `GL_SELECT`.
    7. `vglserver_config` now works properly if invoked with a relative path
    (for example, `cd /opt/VirtualGL/bin; sudo ./vglserver_config`.)
    8. Worked around a limitation in the AMDGPU drivers that prevented recent
    versions of Google Chrome from enabling GPU acceleration when used with
    VirtualGL.
