| Requires EGL 1.2 |
| |
| This extension is written against the wording of the EGL 1.5 Specification |
| |
| Overview |
| |
| This extension is intended for latency-sensitive applications that are doing |
| front-buffer rendering. It allows them to indicate to the Android compositor |
| that it should perform composition every time the display refreshes. This |
| removes the overhead of having to notify the compositor that the window |
| surface has been updated, but it comes at the cost of doing potentially |
| unneeded composition work if the window surface has not been updated. |

| Add to the list of supported tokens for eglSurfaceAttrib in section 3.5.6 |
| "Surface Attributes", page 43: |
| |
| If attribute is EGL_ANDROID_front_buffer_auto_refresh, then value specifies |
| whether to enable or disable auto-refresh in the Android compositor when |
| doing front-buffer rendering. |
