Disregard my closure request, there merge request upstream for needed extension (only missing tests): https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/5139

Chromium 96.0.4664.45 now supports VA-API on Wayland perfectly with `--use-gl=egl` and no LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME env override. The only missing link now is MESA with ANGLE sync control to provide predictable VSYNC for EGL application.

Highly recommended that ArchLinux MESA package maintainers include the patch available from the MR.

Supports vaapi on XWayland, not native Wayland.
Comment by KJ Liew (liewkj) - Sunday, 21 August 2022, 16:17 GMT
ANGLE_sync_control_rate was merged upstream https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/17815

Please consider pulling in this MR for significant improvement in Wayland usability.
