Mesa's Vulkan WSI Now Supports Wayland Color Management


Adding to the flurry of open-source work recently around the merged Wayland color management protocol for supporting HDR, the Mesa Vulkan Windowing System Integration (WSI) code has added support for this protocol.

The now-merged work for Mesa 25.1 plumbs in the Wayland color management protocol to the Vulkan windowing system integration. The Mesa code was written a few months ago by KDE developer Xaver Hugl but had been held up waiting on the actual Wayland Protocols release. See the merge request for those interested in all the details on this color management / HDR support on Wayland with the Mesa Vulkan drivers.
