waypipe is a proxy for Wayland clients. It forwards Wayland messages and serializes changes to shared memory buffers over a single socket. This makes application forwarding similar to
ssh -X
feasible.Waypipe needs to be run on both ends of a socket connection. It emulates shared files between the different systems on each end of the connection, using twin file copies to quickly identify file changes.
It supports both shared-memory and DMABUFs. Performance on a local network is kind of acceptable for terminals and relatively static applications, but games are often unplayable due to FPS drop from the delay needed to send a screenful of data over the network.
