Fwd: unique id for wayland objects

[zou lan]

Add to wayland mail list.

Hi pekka

I used to consider the time line and presentation protocol. But they are
all focus on surface, not buffer. The test want to know the buffer latency,
although they are the same as surface's on
most cases. Applications think maybe some buffers doesn't display and used
again.

By the way, could add a event to wl_buffer's protocol achieve the
requirement? Thank you.

Best Regards
Nancy

Hi,

is there any reason you don't use presentation_feedback interface? To
me it sounds like that would provide exactly what you need.

tree/stable/presentation-time

Also, could we have this coversation on the mailing list, please?


Thanks,
