Pekka Paalanen 5b4ddbc11e os: use posix_fallocate in creating sharable buffers If posix_fallocate is available, use it instead of ftruncate. Unlike ftruncate, when posix_fallocate succeeds, it guarantees that you cannot run out of disk space, when later writing to the mmap()'ed file. With posix_fallocate, if os_create_anonymous_file() succeeds, the program cannot get a SIGBUS later from accessing this file via mmap. If there is insufficient disk space, the function fails and errno is set to ENOSPC. This is useful on systems, that limit the available buffer space by having XDG_RUNTIME_DIR on a small tmpfs.

Weston

Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a
useful compositor in its own right.  Weston has various backends that
lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as
under X11.  Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple
clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more
complete clients and a simplistic toolkit.  There is also a quite
capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop
shell.  Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server
and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window
manager.

weston and its dependencies.
