    "content": "Mesa surfaceless platform appears to be a better fit for the use-case at hand:\n1. Like GBM it is Mesa specific, so no change in supported setups is\n   expected. If ever required, a fallback to the generic device platform\n   could be added on top.\n2. It leaves the complexity of selecting a renderer device to the\n   driver, reducing code and dependencies.\n3. It allows to use llvmpipe / software drivers without dri device,\n   which can be useful on CI or debugging (with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1).\n\nSigned-off-by: Robert Mader <robert.mader@collabora.com>\nReviewed-by: Bryan O'Donoghue <bryan.odonoghue@linaro.org>\nTested-by: Bryan O'Donoghue <bryan.odonoghue@linaro.org> # sm8250/rb5, x1e/Dell Insprion14p\nReviewed-by: Milan Zamazal <mzamazal@redhat.com>\nTested-by: Milan Zamazal <mzamazal@redhat.com> # TI AM69\nTested-by: Barnabás Pőcze <barnabas.pocze@ideasonboard.com> # ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 7 + ov2740\nReviewed-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>\n\n---\n\nChanges in v3:\n - Minor commit message improvement\n - Use EGL_DEFAULT_DISPLAY instead of nullptr (no change in behavior)\n - Improve comment formating\n - Add Laurents R-B\n\nChanges in v2:\n - Add tags\n---\n include/libcamera/internal/egl.h           |  4 +---\n src/libcamera/egl.cpp                      | 14 +++++++-------\n src/libcamera/software_isp/debayer_egl.cpp |  9 +++------\n src/libcamera/software_isp/debayer_egl.h   |  1 -\n 4 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-)",
