Intro
Wayland is the new protocol dedicated to replace X11 windowing system. It's first Linux implementation is called weston. It uses KMS/DRM video drivers direct access, and so needs a recent kernel (4.4+). It currently works well on APF6.
Installation
Use corresponding config (apf6_wayland_defconfig), or activate it in menuconfig:
... Target packages ---> ... Graphic libraries and applications (graphic/text) ---> ...

Tips
- For OpenGL/ES demos, it is necessary to increase Linux kernel allocable video memory at boot:
BIOS> setenv extrabootargs '${extrabootargs} cma=256M'
