Weston issue using systemd LS1028 as non-root user

Shinra — Tue, 08 Nov 2022 15:22:35 GMT

Hi,

I'm facing an issue I've been banging my head against for the last few days. Context is the following:

We're building a kiosk application (web brower based) on a LS1028ARDB using yocto. Everything worked well as long as I was running weston using sysvinit, problems started to appear when I switched to systemd and wanted weston to run as a non-root user.

I'm using the latest yocto version available on codeaurora (# 8dae695989dee10fe8ef3ff8a2f915fdd6cb9579) on the kirkstone branch.

In my image is included: weston_10.0.0.imx and weston-init.

Current status is the following: The weston service starts at boot using a user called weston. As root I'm not able to run a weston app (like weston-flower) with the error "failed to connect to Wayland display" which is expected. When I login as weston I can run apps, but nothing will ever show on the screen.

If I manually start weston as root using "weston-launch -u root" and login again as weston my apps show on the screen.

The major difference is that weston, when launched with systemd, is using logind. Where starting weston with weston-launch uses the legacy "weston_launch launcher". weston-launch is deprecated and definitely not the future, I want to avoid using it.

A journalctl on the weston service reveals:

First there's the issue with the input devices, but let's ignore that part for now. The real issue in my opinion are the lines at the end: atomic: and repaint-flush failed:. Seems like a permission issue to me, but I have no clue about where.

Regarding the input devices, I guess I could add a udev rule to assign them to the seat0.

loginctl confirms that a seat was attributed to weston:

root@ls1028ardb:~# loginctl SESSION UID USER SEAT TTY c2 0 root ttyS0 c3 1000 weston seat0 tty7 2 sessions listed.

If anyone has any clue about what is going on I would be very thankful.

Pierre
