virgl_test_server provides a rendering server that interfaces with the OpenGL hardware. Clients connect to it by using the mesa 3D virgl gallium software renderer.

With the server running, the clients can connect to it by running it with specific environment varibles set to make mesa pick the virgl driver for rendering:

--no-fork Run the server single threaded

--no-loop-or-fork Run the server single threaded and exit after the client closes the connection
