Wezterm WebGpu doesn't work with llvmpipe driver #5473

What Operating System(s) are you seeing this problem on?

Linux X11

Which Wayland compositor or X11 Window manager(s) are you using?

KWin

WezTerm version

20240203-110809-5046fc22

Did you try the latest nightly build to see if the issue is better (or worse!) than your current version?

No, and I'll explain why below

Describe the bug

I didn't try the nightly build as it isn't available for ARM.

If I install vulkan-swarst and try to run wezterm --config 'front_end="WebGpu"', it fails with the message

Failed to create window: Limit 'max_compute_workgroups_per_dimension' value 65535 is better than allowed 0

This is the same message that runs if I uninstall swrast, which implies that wezterm isn't picking up the driver. However, this is unique to the swrast/wezterm combination --- vulkaninfo or vkcube works as expected, and pointing wezterm to a different driver works.

To Reproduce

  1. Uninstall every vulkan driver
  2. Install vulkan-swrast
  3. Run wezterm --config 'front_end="WebGpu"'
  4. See issue.

Configuration

front_end="WebGpu"

Expected Behavior

For wezterm to work as expected.

This did not happen before, so I think it's a regression in either swrast or wezterm.

I'm using wezterm on an RPi5 and get nightly builds built for Arm64 (Debian12). Just in case it might work for you the instructions are here:

Unfortunately I'm finding recent wezterm arm64 builds are unusable now as the video in my PR describes.

Oh, I was only looking at the "raw" builds (I'm on Arch). I'll extract a deb and try it out.
