Example exhibiting the issue

In a EGL implementation that supports EGL_KHR_surfaceless_opengl, making an EGLContext current without any surfaces works only if the supplied EGLContext is a "dummy" one (see the example).

Running the example on my system (r600g but EGL_SOFTWARE=1 results are the same) I get:

$ MESA_DEBUG=1 ./egl-surfaceless 
EGL_KHR_image_base EGL_KHR_image_pixmap EGL_KHR_image EGL_KHR_reusable_sync EGL_KHR_fence_sync EGL_KHR_surfaceless_gles1 EGL_KHR_surfaceless_gles2 EGL_KHR_surfaceless_opengl 
Mesa warning: couldn't open libtxc_dxtn.so, software DXTn compression/decompression unavailable
Mesa warning: couldn't open libtxc_dxtn.so, software DXTn compression/decompression unavailable
eglMakeCurrent Dummy Succeeded: 0x3000
Mesa warning: MakeCurrent: incompatible visuals for context and drawbuffer
eglMakeCurrent Normal Failed: 0x3000

It is strange that although the second eglMakeCurrent fails, the eglError() returns EGL_SUCCESS (0x3000).

I tried the patch, but the problem remains.

Note that I have this problem with all of r600g, r600c, i915c and gallium softpipe.

I can't reproduce this using your test client (or cairo-egl).
Tested with r600g and softpipe using egl_gallium and egl_dri2.

You might want to use EGL_LOG_LEVEL=debug to get more output.

The proposed patch works after all. I was forgetting to set EGL_DRIVERS_PATH when testing the libraries built from git. Sorry for the false alarm.

Thanks!
