I have imx8m board which has one display connected. and i want to share custom board display screen to any host machine(in my case it it Linux system)
For that i used to weston-rdp service for sharing screen and below configuration i have done in bot side client and host.
- In yocto add below lines into the weston bb file “weston_10*.imx.bb” to enable freerdp support.
DEPENDS += "freerdp"
EXTRA_OEMESON += "-Dbackend-rdp=true"
- On client side:
Add below module into the /etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini file.
[core]
modules=screen-share.so
Add below command into the /etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini file
command=@bindir@/weston --no-config –backend=rdp-backend.so
Generate TLS certificate/key.
Modify ExecStart command into the /lib/systemd/system/weston.service file.
ExecStart=/usr/bin/weston --backend=rdp-backend.so –rdp-tls- cert=/home/root/server.crt --rdp-tls-key=/home/root/server.key
restart the weston service.
3) On Host side:-
Run xfreerdp with client ip address and display resolution.
xfreerdp /v:192.168.200.59 /size:800x480
When I restart weston service after all changes the service not started and weston not created socket into the /run/user/0/ location. this issue created when i add “–backend=rdp-backend.so” into the service file.

In normal state without --backend=rdp-backend.so the weston created socket into the /run/user/0/ location.
