eglfs on raspberry2 -- * failed to add service - already in use?
that's is my first post here.
I'd like to keep it short...
Following problem:
i want to run a qt5/qtquickcontrols2 application utilising the eglfs backend on a raspberry-pi 2b, accelerated by vc4, of course. Ideally, it should run in kiosk mode and it definitely needs accelerated gl functionality. To minimise problems, I tested with the command:
LD_PRELOAD="/opt/vc/lib/libGLESv2.so /opt/vc/lib/libEGL.so" qmlscene ./gallery.qml
where gallery.qml is simply the widget preview example project from qt-creator (followed these instructions...). I'm getting following error output:
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ LD_PRELOAD="/opt/vc/lib/libGLESv2.so /opt/vc/lib/libEGL.so" qmlscene ./gallery.qml
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: EGL device integration plugin keys: ("eglfs_brcm", "eglfs_kms", "eglfs_x11")

qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: Trying to load device EGL integration "eglfs_brcm"
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: Using EGL device integration "eglfs_brcm"
* failed to add service - already in use?
I also tested the same running a crosscompiled binary - same error. All but the last line come from verbose debugging output of qt5, which i set via environment variable, details will follow.
System / Environment:
- raspberry-pi 2b
- qt-5.7.0
- Manjaro-ARM (based on Arch Linux ARM)
- all firmware stuff, tools, boot stuff, kernel are installed and up to date
Other settings...

You can see several Qt specific settings: debugging , using eglfs as default backend and the most interesting:
QT_QPA_EGLFS_INTEGRATION=eglfs_brcm which means that broadcom eglfs plugin should be used. Along eglfs_brcm i tried eglfs_kms too (just out of curiosity):
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ export QT_QPA_EGLFS_INTEGRATION=eglfs_kms

* failed to add service - already in use?
It seems to be neither a problem with the video core, nor a problem of the "stock" Qt of manjaro-arm. It simply says something could being blocked, but what? Any hints?
Overlays and drivers seem to work, glxgears achieved ~60FPS running on xfce4. Following is interesting too:

Looks pretty much like it should to me.
I tried following things:
I played around with gpu_mem split, tried values between 128 and 448. Checking gpu mem looks as expected, but no effect on executing mentioned app.
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ vcgencmd get_mem gpu
gpu=320M
I also created following udev rule in order to fix an error I initially faced
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vchiq-permissions.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="vchiq",GROUP="video",MODE="0660"
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ groups
wheel video storage power users
Without the mentioned udev rule, I'd get following error:
[manjaro@Loki gallery]$ LD_PRELOAD="/opt/vc/lib/libGLESv2.so /opt/vc/lib/libEGL.so" qmlscene ./gallery.qml
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: EGL device integration plugin keys: ("eglfs_brcm", "eglfs_kms", "eglfs_x11")
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: EGL device integration plugin keys (sorted): ("eglfs_brcm", "eglfs_kms", "eglfs_x11")
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: Trying to load device EGL integration "eglfs_brcm"
qt.qpa.egldeviceintegration: Using EGL device integration "eglfs_brcm"
* failed to open vchiq instance
Damn... I'm out of ideas now... I'd appreciate every little hint which could help...
Please do not:
- anser to read several docs (i allready spent tons of time)
- suggest to try another distro (that's NOT a solution)
- suggest to reflash my sdcard (NOT a solution too)
Who got Qt-5.7/qtquickcontrols2/QML working on raspberrypi 2 through EGLFS utilizing the vc4??? Thank you very very much for every single breadcrumb...
Answer
I just ran into the same issue.
It happens that when you use the opensource 'vc4-kms-v3d' driver (as set in your config.txt), you cannot use the closed source drivers (/opt/vc/lib/libGLESv2.so and /opt/vc/lib/libEGL.so, on your LD_PRELOAD string).
The error
failed to add service - already in use?
Indicates that, as I've just found out.
So, you may either comment the line on config.txt OR don't use the LD_PRELOAD strategy nor QT_QPA_EGLFS_INTEGRATION=eglfs_brcm
