|
This extension allows an application to take exclusive control on a display
|
|
currently associated with an X11 screen.
|
|
When control is acquired, the display will be deassociated from the X11
|
|
screen until control is released or the specified display connection is
|
|
closed.
|
|
Essentially, the X11 screen will behave as if the monitor has been unplugged
|
|
until control is released.

|
|
=== Issues
|
|
|
|
1) Should flink:vkAcquireXlibDisplayEXT take an RandR display ID, or a
|
|
Vulkan display handle as input?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: A Vulkan display handle.
|
|
Otherwise there would be no way to specify handles to displays that had been
|
|
"`blacklisted`" or prevented from being included in the X11 display list by
|
|
some native platform or vendor-specific mechanism.
|
|
|
|
2) How does an application figure out which RandR display corresponds to a
|
|
Vulkan display?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: A new function, flink:vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT, is introduced
|
|
for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
3) Should flink:vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT be part of this extension, or a
|
|
general Vulkan + RandR or Vulkan + Xlib extension?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: To avoid yet another extension, include it in this extension.
