  28     EGL Extension #TODO

  30 Extension Type
  31
  32     EGL device extension
  33
  34 Dependencies
  35
  36     Requires EGL_EXT_device_query.
  37
  38     This extension is written against the EGL 1.5 Specification.
  39
  40 Overview
  41
  42     This extension defines a software EGL "device". The device is not backed by
  43     any actual device node and simply renders into client memory.
  44
  45     By defining this as an extension, EGL_EXT_device_enumeration is able to
  46     sanely enumerate a software device.

  64 New Behavior
  65
  66     The device list produced by eglQueryDevicesEXT will include a software
  67     device. This can be distinguished from other device classes in the usual
  68     way by calling eglQueryDeviceStringEXT(EGL_EXTENSIONS) and matching this
  69     extension's string in the result.
