> [Franklin] I'm assuming you really need this in dora correct? The reason I say this is currently your patches as is won't do anything for you since newer versions of the wayland recipes exist which means those newer versions will be used not this older version. If you really need this in master then I would suggest updating these patches against Wayland 1.4/1.5. I have pending patches for Wayland 1.5 so if it is accepted I would rebase those patches off of that version.

I actually meant daisy and not dora.
Yes, I agree but when its intended to be used I was thinking about 
setting the PREFERRED_PROVIDER.

So applying patches for am57xx-evm would probably cause problems. Until these kernel patches are pushed to the integration tree so they are available for am57xx-evm I would just limit it to dra7xx-evm. It would be simple to include am57xx-evm at a later time.

Ok, I have had some discussion on this topic with Chase. So he might be 
able to give some pointers here.
